You’re Not in Sporting Fashion If You Haven’t One
HOPES, HOPES EVERYWHERE! ARE THEY ANY GGOB?
By Ed. W. Smith.
IF you would bi» in sporting
fashion you had better get
yourself a "white hope" and
start singing his praises.
The fight fan who isn't boosting
some big fellow seems mighty
lonesome these days.
Perhaps this is one of the re
sults of the matching of Jim Flynn
with Jack Johnson, or it may have
been brought about by the arrival
of spring, or there may be some
other cause for it, but the fact re
mains that not only the woods but
the plains and the prairies seem
to be filled with the big fellows
who aspire to attain a place of
prominence in the fistic world.
About the best looking of t.he lot
that we have seen is John Young,
the powerful Western man who is
being handled by Sig Hart, whose
companion piece in the stable was
Luther McCarthy, matched to box
