Both are married. Both are be ginning to get gray, and they ara both slightly bald. But Mclntyre Is heavyweight champion of the Pacific coast, having grabbed the crown th'.s spring when he made a whirlwind charge upon California. And Farmer is one of those rugged boxers who started the game thru practical experience in man-to man encounters and has continued it because of his natural aptitude for the game. These men will put up a real slug-fest, or we miss our guess. Mclntyre is a favorite. He has a strong punch, and Is Inclined to rush his opponent off his feet. What Farmer will do in front of a rushing powerful au tagon'rt remains to be seen. No introduction is needed for any of the boxers on the card.
