DEFEATS SOLDIERS
AlamoKordo. N. M.. Nov. 28. The
basketball game played between the
"Alamo Hi" and a picked team from
the Ninth engineers (mounted) ended
with a score of 18 to '13 in favor of
Alamogordo. The game was played
hard and fast by both teams. The
soldiers were at a disadvantage be
cause of their having been oat on a
three weeks' hike and had no time to
practice for the game. The procee-ls
of the game were given to' the Y. M.
a A.
Immediately following the basket
ball game a dance was given at the
pavilion, the proceeds being given to
the Bed Cross.
An informal reception was given
the same evening for the soldiers and
a short program rendered. Refresh
ments were served.

Thursday night when Joe Kale, light
weight champion of this section and
challenger Billy Slam Wilson trill
have It out for the district title.
The match has been billed to go ten
rounds but both principals declare
that time will never be called for the
tenth stanza as both intend" to go In
and mix things from tha initial gong
in order to win by a knockout. Both
are rough hardy little mixers who can J
give as well as take a punch and are
confident of their ability to slip over
the sleep punch.
The entire card comprises seven
bouts and consist of the cream of the
glove wielders of this section. Four
four round preliminaries, one six
round special event and an eight
round semi windup between two crack
middleweight: will be witnessed
to the main event.
Arrangements have been made for
the gloves to be tied on the prelim
inary boxers in the dressing rooms
and they will come out in rapid order.
All of the funds taken In at the gate
go to the Fifth cavalry regiment, and
efforts are being made to meet ex
penses by the management. It is very
probable that the sale of tickets will
go past the expenditures as hundreds
of pasteboards have already been dis
posed of.

WINS A MATCH
Minneapolis. Minn., Nov. 2S. Fred
Fulton, Minnesota heavyweight, won
a technical knockout over Gunboat
Smith In the seventh round of their
scheduled ten round fight here Tues
day night when Smith's seconds
tossed in a sponge to save him from
further punishment
In the first two rounds Smith
landed several telling blows on his
opponent's face and head while the
crowd jeered at Fulton's somewhat
awkward swings.
Three times In the third round Ful
ton worked his man to the ropes
and brought down an avalanche or
swings which had Smith groggy when
the gong sounded.
