The east evidently is not in favor cf giving “charity” boxing shows for Dempsey and Kearns and the fighter and his marfiger will have to agree on a suitable opponent under the condt- tions as laid down by the various com missions. It does not seem reasonable to think that the fighter or his man- ager would quibble om this point, and it therefore looks stronjger than ever that there is some move back of the whole thing other than “arrariging suit- able fights.’” Kearns is not popular with a lot, of people in the east, and this may have/ something to do with the rumors of | the Be ea! break between pe and hed Pea Beek che ae attache, the ine 3 = coal Kearns had big plans for an active fighting campaign, but all these plans’ have gone awry.
