MSIIMI BCffING - WF ACTON NOT LIKELY TO OPEN 810 GLOB HERE By AV. AV. Naughton. SAX FRANCISCO. June 17 Many a moon has waxed and waned since Hugh D. Mcln tosh. the Australian fight promoter, gave out that he was about to em bark in his particular line of busi ness in New York, having been in vited to do so by "many leading ■porting men" of the big Eastern Pity. Mac always promised fuller par ticulars "bv next mall," but as the mail in question is more than a year overdue, it begins to look as though something has gone awry with Mclntosh’s plans for an East ern invasion. It was a weird proposition from the outset. New’ York, like any other big American city, has sport ing entrepeneurs who can hold thelr own with men in that line the world around, and why Mclntosh was needed there to show them how to run things was never very clear. If the Australian had gone there with a-string of Australian fighters and merely as a padrone, it would have been quite under standable. but the suggestion that his presence was deemed necessary to place boxing on a proper footing w as a good deal of a joke. Now that Mac's Australian press bureau stuff contains no further reference to his New York inva sion. we are beginning to wmnder whether tome one was kidding him or he war kidding the balance of us. Improving Big Stadium, The vert latest from Sydney is that Mclntosh is having the Rusheutters Bay stadium roofed over so as to be available for box ing matches both winter and sum mer. This looks as though Mc- Intosh has made up his mind to stax at home and make Australia an all-year-round pugilistic ren dezvous. For that matter. Mac is already casting around for winter cards, and he is not particular whose corns he treads on while reaching for what he wants. He has prob ably taken the Jeannette-Langford contest from Mct’arey. and while ■ doing so has given the ethics of matchmaking a violent w rench The last mail from Australia brought the usual output of press bureau stuff from the Mclntosh of fire in Sydney. tint circular let ter sets forth that the stadium was being roofed in and that as a big opening card Mclntosh was after Jeannette and Langford. The <’i>'- eular mentioned that some little trouble was expected because Jeannette and Langford were al ready matched for Los Angeles, but expressed the belief that the Los Angeles stumbling block was “something that could be adjusted." Letter From Jeannette's Manager. About the same date the writer received a letter from Dan Mc- Kitterick, manager of Jeannette, who at the time was in Paris. “Mclntosh Is> offering us all kind? of inducements to go to Australia and box Langford," wrote McKit terick. "He says Langford has signed up for a new batch of con tests. and will not return to Amer ica for a long time.” About a week later, McCarey, the Los Angeles matchmaker, re ceived a cablegram from Lang ford's manager in Australia, setting forth that they had been made par ties to a lawsuit and would not be able to sail for home in time to keep the July date with Jeannette in Los. Angeles. "We will be back in September, so try and keep Jeannette in the country," said the cable, but after reading the extracts given from the letters received from Mclntosh and McKitterick ft is easy enough to see that they have put one over on poor old Uncle Tom. the sage of Vernon.

W. Smith. EAST LAS VEGAS, N. M„ June 17.—1 f the deductions of Tommy Ryan, sage of Syra cuse, work out as correctly as his deductions usually do. there will be a crashing knockout one way or the other July 4. when Jack John son defends his championship box ing title against Jim Flynn, the Pueblo fireman. Furthermore, Ryan believes that the said knockout will come inside of eighteen rounds. Which will score the knockout, you naturally expect me to tell you. I would tell you if Ryan would tell me what he thinks,- but the sage is just a bit too foxy to commit himself to that extent just yet. Leave It to Ryan to figure the thing out to a pretty fine point. Just slant your eye over what Tom my told me last night, when he came into the city and loafed around the fight headquarters for a little time before going to bed. Tom retires early, for the habits he learned on that Michigan fruit farm of his- haven't deserted him, and he is up with the larks here, fussing around the lawn plat in front of his temporary home, about three blocks from the center of the city. Well, have you got It pretty well doped out?” Tom queried after tell ing how nicely’ Flynn had worked before a big crowd at the Montezu ma quarters, Flynn in Fine Form. "No; hut I'd like to hear what you think about it as far as they’ve gone." I answered. “It's a little early yet to form a definite opinion and I have not seen the champion yet," said the foxy one with his big smile. “But I know one thing Just from what I have seen around the Flynn camp: There’s going to be a smashing knockout one way or the other. It's an easy thing to dope out al this stage of the game. To SOUTHERN LEAGUE. Games Today. Atlanta in Nashville. Birmingham in Mobile. New Orleans in Montgomery.

Headache* and nausea were also frequent He was listless and dull, and would not play as other children would. He was getting weak and thin, and nothing that was given in the way of medicine would do any good at all. Then about four years ago the parents became convinced that their dear boy was the victim of a horrible parasite, and this knowledge almost dr ,ve them frantic. The child was trea.ed three times unsuccessfully for the trouble, but still he suffered. The parents had about given up all hope of his ever being cured, when the Health Teacher enne to Atlanta The grand work that lie was doing with the Quaker Reme dies came to the attention of Mrs. Os born who called at Coursey <t- Munn's Drug Store He recommended Quaker Extract, telling her that It had expelled over 4.009 tapeworms In h!s experience She procured a treatment and imme diately began giving it to the hoc What was the- result ' In six days after be ginning its use he was seized with a Johnson's condition, our man will be there in the”flnest of shape. Mind you, I'm not trying to cast any doubt upon Johnson’s sincerity in this matter. 1 know that he’ll train at his very best, but all along peo ple have been telling me that, per haps. he can not stand the strain of It any more. “There's one mtgnty sure thing about this contest: Johnson isn't going to have any luscious snap In downing this fellow of mine. “Even If he Is In the finest shape, Flynn is going to bother him 'most to death before he'll be forced to admit defeat. Flynn can take such a powerful lot of It and grin and keep on tearing in that I wouldn't be surprised to see Johnson might ily worried for a long time. "Rough fight, you ask? Well, Isn't any fight a rough one? This shouldn’t be any worse than any of the others. It’s going to be a smashing fight from the Jump, and you can bet on that, and there won't be a single love tap In It. Every punch will have something like murder behind It, and if it does not go more than a couple of rounds that big crowd is going to get a big run for its money. Flynn Ha* Only One Style. Ryan further remarked that he and Flynn had never discussed any particular plan of battle that Flynn might pursue in the coming con test, because of the fact that Flynn has never had but one style In ail of his long career in the ring. That style will have to do for him now. It’s simply that he will walk right Into the colored man and keep as close to him ns he possibly can, whaling away at all times. Ryan thinks that Flynn’s short ness of stature, coupled with his crouch, will bother Johnson some. When Flynn is boxing he presents little but the top of his head to hie opponent, and an uppercut Is about the only good method of attack for the foe. Johnson knows this well and It Is plain that he is getting that punch into good working order from the frequency with which he He’« Ruptured! DON'T take any chance !n get ting that tru«.
