Ale STANLEY AND BURNS CLASH IN BIG INTERNATIONAL BOUT *sAnother Chapter May Be Added to Ring Classics, as Digger Is Eng- land’s Bantam Champion and 4 Frankie Best in America. BY ROBER Copyright, 1911, by The Press Publishing Co. (The SP Magland for about nine years. He classes, across the sea, about like Abe eae in America. He bas all the craft of an old-timer, and he is at bis best. Digger hes been training near Philadelphia, and those who have Qoseem him report that he’s another Jim Driscoll. If he is as fast and clever .ae08 Jim he will be a popular boy in our club circles. As for Frankie Burns, he is @ young- Geter beside Staniey, but he has fought —«Atten and is little behind the English- square fighting jaw, an ag and a habit of tearing in and musing Cevery second of the time He has a ~~" cleverness of his own and @ two-handed _atyle of fighting that makes it hard to him off. Stanley may try to ma bet @ clever, long range fight. Burns ‘will be all for close quarters and ‘hot Bixst. ‘The international character of bout makes it interesting, of course, Measut even without that it would be one b etna the best of the season. T pleases me to be able to announce that Jess MaMahon of the Olymptc A. C, of Harlem has thrown out the Kid match that was scheduled fo: Monday night. The Olympic ha: ajways been a club with @ very good putation, and the MoMahon boys, who it, have always been known as good sportsmen. It would be an unfortunate thing for the game to have @ club like ‘Mthe Olympic mixed up with a notorious BBtaker like Dixie Kid, whose unsavory Sao yeaa ee absolutely bar him from ppearances in the ring. }e€ For any club to stage. the Diste Kid <aomould be to insult the intelligence and the decency of its members. mtgNUNNY thing, while all the Gattor Burkes and the Mantells and the ats rest of the second-rate middie seem to find matohes hanging every tree, really first-class men have sit and look on.

T™ classics of the ring may have another chapter added to night, when Frankie Burne and Digger Stanley meet at the Na- tional Sporting Club, Di; Stanley is England’s bantamweight champion. Burns is the greatest little fighter of his weight in America. He has beaten Johnny Coulon, In England the bantamweight Itmit {9 118 pounds. Here it is generally accepted as 116. Stanley agreed to eplit the difference, and the boys are weighing in at 117. The Digger has been fighting in at 170 pounds, The middleweight limtt ts with him is as much of a bluff ea the igbtweight limit fs with Young Erne, I never saw either of the Sullvane in action, aa they have done most of their Mghting in the far West, but on‘ the Pacific Coast they are regarded as champtonship contenders, and such @ good judge of fighters as Packey Mc- Farland told me that in his opinion Jack Sullivan, who had trained with him in Los Angeles, was the best mid- dleweight in the country, Hither of the Gullivang would lke to take on Papke, Hugo Kelly, Klaus of Pittsburg, Jimmy Gardner, or any other topnotoher. The trouble in New York seems to be a lack Of men S004 enough to class with them. LTHOUGH some foxy gentlemen A a from time to time held a contrary opifion, it is worth while, in boxing circles, to be etriotly on the level and to treat the pubito with @ certain amount of consideration. Packey McFarland went to Philadel Dhia to box Young Erne, Both fighters signed an agreemem to weigh in at 196 Pounds at 8 o'clock on the afternoon of the bout, MoFarland wes on the level. ‘When weighing-in time came he sealed Just 14 pounds, But Erne, who had oaly @ bundreddollar weight forfeit up, never intended to make Welght. His foxy scheme was to break faith with Mo Ferland and forfeit the hundred. He weighed 147 pounds. He wae @ middle- weight. Of course there was some eurprise and indignation in the McFarland camp, but Packey asked Jack McGuigan to announce that rather than disappoint those who “had come to the bout he would fight Erne in spite of the weight. In the ring Erne fouled continually, e was offered one with Dan or Jack he suddenly discovered that struck McFarland atter he had dropped his hands when the roynds were over and used abusive language intended to make Packey tose his head, MoFaelen phe “sitecue “ne @ eound thrashing, And ‘altho deen ai z a0- tion by cheering him trom start to fin- sh, Men Mke rland are @ credit to the game, -Marquard Even Displays ep.
