C UiJi AGO. ILL., De< 8 Pd-key , Mc Farland isn’t going: to retire from the ring. Chicago's gen tleman boxer, and without question the greatest ring man since the bent days of Young Griffo. to-day made this statement, following a quest.on of whether he would quit the ring aft er Joining the ranks of the benedicts. A story that the stockyards battler would retire on his wedding day prompted the question. Packer is to he married in April to Miss Margaret Loughran, a Joliet heiress and society girl, but tfte ring will not lose him, save for the bri'f period of his honeymoon, which he believe* will stretch over four months. And even in that time the squared circle will have the pleasure of the Chicagoan, but only In the form of boxing exhibitions, if is McFarfanu s plan to tour the world with h* bride. Jimmy Moran, a lifelong friend, and Mrs. Moran. Not to Retire. • "Why should I retire?” With ail toe seriousness that human mind pos sesses, McFarland asked that ques- tio- "Fighting to me is a business just like any other business is to our leading business men. I don’t s?e any of our successful business men retiring when in their best years, sj why should l? ”1 have made a deep study of the game, am one of the leaders *n my profession and, I might add, a credit to the game; why quit? True, I have a small fortune, the harvest for my years of rine toil hut Rockefeller and others have millions and th y are still at the grind. I’m young ind active, and so long as the boxing game brings me no regrets I’ll con tinue." Fights Against Being Marked. "When the fighting game becomes such that J must take a beating lor the money it brings me, when 1 must be disfigured ’ike Battling Nelson, .Johnny Thompson and some of the other men who have been marked for fife by the viciousness in the squar d circle, then I will hoist up the Hag j and say quits, but such a time seems far distant to me,” declared the Irish man. .*■- "I studied the game not to be a slugger and maul'-r, but to be « box er— the manly art of self-deffnse. In ul1 these >ears I haven't been marked why go in for the brutal stuff now? Then, too, the bigger men—meaning in matter of weight -the more gruel ing the battle, the more punishing. Some day I’ll box at 145 or 160 pounds, but that time isn’t near. I’m n fight er. as they say, but no one dreads more than I do to see what la termed a slaughter in the ring. "1 have been studying law for al most two years now Some day I hope to Vie admitted to the bar and be one of Chicago's big lawyers. At such a time, of course. I’ll retire.” I’D Like TO KajOVaj JUST” vjhatj jh£ ^Arrre-. v/jiff _ G6L /-MTUlWiHG CAU-£t> MG Aif^A^E fV'THC frftASJ \RELL — raa a/qT k/np enouCtH to hgt-- v*/£LL- I’LL.

Jv W’liile watching Harlem Tommf Murphy at work In hlg gymra- slnm and noting thd evident i«t with which he tackles his exerci?ei and the energy he Infuses into the things he does, it is hard to realize all the sturdy little New Yorker hai been through in the boxing line. The fact remains that Murphy hai flourished contemporaneously whai four world’s champions in his divi sion-—that he lias seen three of them I pass Into defeat and out of the lime-1 light, and is now about to box the I fourth after many years of waiting I for a chance at the blue ribbon. A glance at Murphy’s record i*| highly interesting. It contains ihel names of such performers as K. Broad, Young Corbett, Benny Yangerj Terry McGovern and Frankie Nek fighters who have been out of thej game these many years. When the Battling Nelson-Joe Gausj feud was at its height Tommy was fighting such men as Leach Cros. 6 Matty Baldwin and Packey McKa land, and this Is ample proof that Le would have been a fair enough cham pionship candidate at that time If the chance had come his war. RINGSIDE NOTES Matty Baldwin, who has been engag ing in flstlc battles for nearly fifteen years, will meet Johnny Griffiths in a ten-round go in Akron, Ohio, to-night. Although a real veteran at- the game. Matty is still capable of giving the best of them a tough argument. * * ♦ Rob McAllister, the Western light weight. makes his Gotham debut Wed nesday night, when he tackles Mike Donovan before Billy Gibson's club. Mc Allister has ^ust recovered from an at tack of tonsilitis. A match has been clinched between Bob Moha. the crack light heavyweight of Milwaukee, and Ja^ck FitagerulcL the Philadelphia rlngnmn. They will clash in a ten-round bout in New York on Thursday night. * • • Packey McFarland, If he has been quoted correctly, lias a calm and cheer ful theory of boxing, fine for himself, nice for bis opponents, but rather se vere on the public. Packey is supposed to have said in Chicago: "I never try to hurt my men. I am perfectly willing to go along, box nice and pretty, and do r.o Imrm—as long as they don’t get fresh and try to hurt me." * * » *Rav Temple has been matched to meet'Joe Sherman in a ten-round bout at Superior. Wis., on December 11. * * * Johnny Kilbane and Abe Attell will clash in a twenty-round sei-to at San Francisco on February 22. ♦ <* ♦ Local boxers fire having a contest as to who is the best tango dancer. Mike Saul and Frank Baker are having a neck and neck race Meyer Pries is out for the "booby" prize. From his re cent performance he has a good chance of landing it. • • • Frankie Conley, ex-bantamweight champion of the world, Is sfill fooling with the boxing gloves. Frankie bat tles "Knockout" Mars in a scheduled ten-round bout at Cincinnati. Ohio, to night. Mars is the boy who gave Johnny Kilbane a hot scrap a few weeks | ago. * * * Another bout of interesr takes place to-night between Jim Flynn and Bat tling Levinaky in New York. Levinsky is Danny Morgan’s rising heavyweight ! star. He should have a tough nut to crack in this Flynn party, who. although j fading, ftnows enough to put up a good j bout against the best of them around ; his weight., A CRACKING GOOD SHOW PLEASES ALL AT THE DUTCH MILL The extravaganza at the Dutch Mill is pleasing all who have seen it, as it is one of the best shows for the money ever put on in Atlanta.
