Morris, na I said in my previous notes, is rapidly developing the same style and aggressiveness of Ewin, who was a delight to the Hong Kong fane Morris is ̈à clean-cut fighter. He has style, punch and the stamina to take a good gruelling. His chief asset, which has brought him out of many tight corners, is his ability to keep

Stoker Morrell, who is to face Morris, is by no means a now- comer. He is the welterweight and widdleweight of Shanghai. He has fought in the Colony, and when in Shanghai he beat everyone match- ea against him with the exception of the redoubtable Duncan Mor rell can fight like a demoir His latest victory in Shanghai was over Yacko, ‘a man nine pounds heavier than himself. Yacko was consider. ed a hard man to lick and many. had tried it to their own "scrow, but it remained for Morrell to show Yacko that sciones could triumph over weight.
These two men will undoubtedly go at each other unrelentingly, for it will be their last fight in Hong Kong and whoever wins will anil away with the title and the much coveted belt.
