The Army team will be: Anderson (K.O.S.B.);
One of the American contenders will endeavour to take
away with him the welterweight championship of the Colony, and as he is a well-seasoned fighter, Marino Frazor will need to be at his best to prevent the American's success."
The contest will be over twelve rounds, and the American boxer is "Whitey" Roberts, of the U. S, S. Black Hawk. Roberts has had a long ring career, with many ups' and downs in his 125 fights, but It must not be supposed that he is played out, for, even now he is recognised as a leading contender for the welterweight championship of the US, Navy.
