I have pleasure in announcing that I have selected Leslie Williams (Tonypandy) and Dal Bowen (Treherbert) for the trip to America, and they board the "Lucania" this Sat, on a year's tour under the management of Mr. Frank W. Torreyson, of Braddock, Pa., a well-known racehorse owner and matchmaker. This gentleman has a finger in nearly every boxing concern of that district, and he is able to run shows throughout the summer, so Leslie and Dal ought to do well.

At the recent Nazareth House benefit display Leslie Williams showed great form against Joe Bowker, and I am sure he will make good out there. Bowen should also do well, for he fights in clean fashion, and has several victories to his credit. I hear that the Treberbert Constitutional Club intend holding a smoker and presentation to mark his departure.
