Xo longe' do We 1.;.,- tlie idea that a man of IT?, or ISO pounds is good enough to cope with the whales of the lieiivyw'eight di vision at tlie present time. Time was when a smashing good middle weight with tin- wallop would lc thought plenty good enough to handle himself < oditalilv among the cart horse- who trow infest the upper range of the pugilistic scale. No More Wonders in Sight. But nature seems loath to giG Us another Hob Fitzsimmons or an other fttanley Ketcbel o, a Jack Dempsey. I’liere may lie one in embryo somewhere in this broad land, but if there is he hasn't had a pair of five-ounce gloves tied on bis wri-ts yet. Fitzsimmons taught us that a man of 165 pounds was plenty big enough to whip if he was onlj good enough. Ketchel. with his wallop and unmistakable gameness, could whip 9D per cent, of the big fellows who posed as first-elass fighters. Perliaps you recall that Jack Dempsey at his best never weighed over 14S pounds, and like Ketehel was infinitely better than most of tile heavyweights of his day—the "good old days" those were, too, in which, we an- told, the lighters were twice as good as they are to day. This little myth has been passed around for years by the old-timers. It is just a pleasant little fable and nothing mojie. Must Go Over 200 Now. Xo'v. when a manager springs a white hope lie has got to show that his man goes over 2nfi pounds, and tlie farther over it the better, in order to get any attention at all. Perhaps this fashion was s"t when Jim Jeffries with his tremendous proportions rather shook ring prec edent In plowing through all Hie heavies, big and little, including tlie mighty Fitzsimmons, and scat tered the remains in a long, devas tated path. The man who finally whipped Jeffries was another mam moth, and after that it was a cer tainty that the ''coming champion" had to be a whale. Tlie pond was not lit longer for the perch or tin minnows. McCarty Like Jeffries. AJeCarty, tlie coast fans think, looks more like Jeffries than any man they have seen in action since tlie day of the hairy one. Hence, they like McCarty. In addition he can fight, which tightens it up not a little. But wait until they see this other whale. Al Palzer. start tearing off the swings. He is the real wild man., the'hairy terror of the world. _ t --n-*a .. • wnmafe.*** -laimM mr --- «mir * -maaan. •oasas**.- it~w~i— i iw • ■ .111——11 ■■ n«i -ant il i nwwria—in_ ll n . nail ■ i,j ■, i^n —-- —r - i u n r AUCTION SALE OF CHINAWARE I 40 Peachtree Street I I A $2,000.00 stock of manufacturer’s odds | | and ends, comprising dinner sets, berry sets, | i odd tea pots, creamers, sugar bowls, etc. I I A few brass lamps, some flat silverware I | sets, and some choice books are included.
