SILVERS TAKES PLACE ON CARD IN MAIN EVENT Dor’ Silvers Substituted for Bob Howell as Col l'er’s Opponent ‘•Doc” Silvers, who earned a high! place for himself in the regard of j local fight fans for his magnificent I fight against Soldier Olson several -weeks ago, was today substituted for j Bob Howell .Unalga battler, in the i main event of the American Le- j gion’s boxing show next Saturday. night. j He will meet Joe Collier, local j veteran of the cauliflower game, j Howell was called out on the Unal- i ga last Saturday and his return here is indefinite. Silvers is a tough customer. He can fight and proved it to the fans who saw him jab and punch Olson for four rounds and pile up a big lead, only to lose on a kayo in the fifth round. Collier will have to be at his best to stop Silvers, or even to fight him on even terms. It will be a match well worth the Legion's price of admission.
