    JIM FLYNN HAS
3CDASTHOUTS;
■ IffiMM
CHICAGO, Aug. 10.—The matching
of Jim Flynn, recent victim of Jack
r Johnson, and Charlie Miller, of San
Francisco, today brought to light two
other battles in which the Pueblo fire
man is to engage* before 1912 turns into
the following year. James Coffroth has
signed the Westerner for the three con
tests. The Miller match is set for La
bor day, September 2. If Manager Jack
Curley will permit his charge to go
into the ring seven days later. Flynn
will be sent against Al Kaufman on
Armission day. On Thanksgiving day
Coffroth proposes to use Flynn and
Tommy Burns as his star card. Curley
Isn’t too willing to take on Kaufman
with seven days between, but will try
to reach an agreement with Coffroth.
Will Go West Soon.
This is the information that Jack
Curley, manager of Flynn, dropped to
day, and he says his charge will clean
up the bunch. Curley says Coffroth
has practically closed the matches,
there being but a slight hitch in the
proceedings that will bring Tommy
Burns back to the ring. Jack got in
touch with Flynn yesterday and the
pair will leave for Sati Francisco in a
few' days. Flynn is still in the West.
Curley declares Miller is a much
tougher heavyweight than the people
in this section of the country give him
, credit for being, and that Flynn will
have no easy time.
Australian Trip Near.
Unless something for the better
breaks following these three matches,
It is Curley's plan to quit San Fran
cisco about the first of the year and
take the long jump to Australia with
his fighter, returning byway of Eng
land. Jack believes there are still
* good fields abroad to conquer. He says
Flynn is in good shape and will need
but two weeks work to be ready for
ring work.
