About Fights and Fighters BY LEO H, LASSEN Je cnet serge which once roduced some of the qresvert heavyweight fight- ers in the world, is in a sad way for good ring talent in that division now, Five different fellows have held the heavyweight title in the Antipodes during the past year, and conditions there are much different than in the days of Bob Fitz- simmons, Joe Goddard, Frank Slavin and Peter Jackson. A young 2yearold fighter, Blackie Miller, with practically no experience, is tho present Anzac titleholder, He won his crown from Erm Sheppheard by a technical knockout In the 12th round recent. ly because he was in much better condition than the champion. The transfer of tho title five ) times within a year ig almost a} record. Colin Bell, a veteran rings ster, was the recognized champion after Billy Shade left for America. Jim Roland Dwyer beat Bell about the first of last year, Ern Waddy, a newcomer from ‘West Australia, came along and beat Dwyer. He was a big fellow and considered a good fighter. Sheppheard came along and knocked ‘Waddy out in the 14th round. Soon afterwards Miller kicked over Sheppheard. It's wasting time looking to Aus tralia for a while to find an op- ponent for Jack Dempsey’s crown. Collins Has Two Likely Youngsters Mike Collins, the St. Paul boxing resario, has ‘two likely young- in his ring stabbe.

Meanwhile McCarthy and his attorney, Harry I, Stafford, are handing out statements and doling thelr campaigning. They had the {!l-fortune to arrive on the ground after J. Cal Ewing, of Oakiand, and Harry Wi!- Mama, his president of the Coast league, got hore, and are making up for lost time by handing out the history of the league fight in sections and in detail, ‘The “outlaw” big five are not letting any statements grow under their feet, Their typewriters are busily pounding away, also, Of the big five, BI Kepper, of Portland, bas been outlawed by Commis: sioner Landis and Charles Lockard, of Seattle, has been outlawed by McCarthy. Ewing, Lane and Rivers, the remaining threo, are considered entirely legal. Williams is sitting tight, dodging any entangling alliances until the board has a chance to talk, but big Bill is making all the alliances he can, wherever he can find them.
