	Sligar's first Tacoma show as a boxing promoter was conducted [~~http~~:~~//www.boxrec.com/date_search.php?yyyy=1947&mm=1&dd=16&SUBMIT=Go~~ January 16, 1947].

Sligar's first Tacoma show as a boxing promoter was conducted [[Show:29353\|January 16, 1947]]. He had been a Tacoma electric construction man and rodeo promoter before getting into boxing promotion.

	In late 1948 [[Wiley Spivey]] took over the Tacoma promoting license from Sligar, who had relinquished the permit "due to press of other business." Nov. 4 ''Tacoma News Tribune''. Spivey conducted only a handful of Tacoma shows before Sligar returned March 7, 1949, when his license to promote professional boxing in the city was re-activated after a long meeting by the Washington State Athletic Commission. Newly-appointed Commissioner [[Howard R. Smith]], of Tacoma, said Spivey had been operating under a "temporary permit" and would now have to apply for a permanent license. (Apparently Spivey never did apply.) Sligar immediately appointed the legendary [[Joe Waterman]] as his matchmaker. Their first show was held [[Show:70420\|April 1]]. After Waterman died in early May 1949, [[Jimmy Fitten]] took over as Sligar's matchmaker.
