UP TO DATE AND NEWSY. WORLD, THURSDAY, AUGUST 8&8, 1907. _ WHY SHOULD GANS — AGREE TO FORFEIT | $2,500 TO BRITT? Willus, the Brother-Manager, Insists ‘That Champion Give James Ed- ward Bonus if.He Loses in F ight With Memsic. | oT has remained for Willus Britt, + I brother-manager of James, to jn. vent something new tn the roatch- Ing line, Willus has induced Cham: pion Gand to sign articles in which one of the clauses makes Gans for- feit the sum‘of $2,600 to Jimmy Britt if Gans loses his coming fight with Memsic tn Los Angeles. This is one of the funniest conces- lid he make it? That's a puzzle. Naturally, Britt {s the anxious one in this Britt-Gans match. Gans has the title and Britt wants It. So why should Gans agree to forfeit $2,500 to Britt if he loses to Memsic and so spoils the 3ritt-Gans maich? Gans is “jn a position to demanr concensions, Britt tent. ; “Is Joseph so cocksure of dvfenting Meinsic that he docsn tisk worth mentioning? Or is the forfeit clause merely @ to make the Britt-Gans match jdook in deadly earnest?
