Battle Between Tom Kennedy and Al Palzer To-Night May Disclose the Fighter to Settle “White Hope” Supremacy With Carl Morris. r | i | fe | g Waloott. In his few fighte Paiser has made good. He won the “white hope tourne- ment"-run by/Tom O'Rourke some time ago, and showed then that he was a genuine fighter. He looks like a big Terry McGovern, and he hee something of the MoGovern fire in hia action. In appearance he te an ideal figtiter, big, rugged, wiry and round jawed. ENNEDY and Palser are among K the biggest of the big men who may have designe on the cham- plonship in the future, Palser weighs 210 pounds stripped, Kennedy 214 Pal- zer is lean at the weight. Kennedy 1s] of @ topheavy build, with great shoul- ders and & body @ Iittle too heavy in proportion and light legs. Tom O'Rourke says that Palser te the only fighter he ever saw who had only three or four fights and bought himself a home with his winnings, He haa @ tent over on the Pallsdes, A few days ago Kennedy's father, who doesn't care much about fighting As @ business, visited the big amateur’s quarters and asked him if there was no inducement that would make him raw out of the match. ‘Ten thousand dollars?’ asked the father, feeling for his check book. “No,” said Kennedy again. So his father compromised by buying a %0 box for the fight. Then he went to the Proprietor of the hotel and said: “You let_my son have anything he wants, an@ let his trainers have anything they want and charge it all to me. If he wants anything you don't happen to have on the premises hire an auto and send for it as quick as you can. I'll foot the bills.” It’s something of an advantage for @ fighter to have auch a father handy. Kennedy boxed on the stage with Jack Johneon for three days when Jack was showing here. The first two days Johneon peppered him with uppercuts and made him look like a novice. Ke! nedy hired a couple of heavyweights and made them throw uppercuts at him for two or three hours a day. At last he invented a block and @ counter. On the third night he fotled every up- perout that Johnson tried to use, After the bout Johnson asked him how in the world he managed to do it. “I studied that for two days,” said Ken- nedy, ‘Well, retorted Jack, “you're the firet man that ever did study out a way to beat It. If you'll come over to Mngland with me I'll get you fights and teach you a lot of things. I'll make you @ great fighter.” But Kennedy de. lined the offer LY, this fsn't @ guarantee of a A great fight.
