Packey always manages to be where Britton isn't, according (> Britton. It's a sad, ead tale, Britton wents to meet Packey and hant him a few punches, and Packey won't be mot—not if he sees Britton first. Jack Britton is trom Chicago, and he might have a fellow feeling for Mol" lend dut for the fect that he is from the North Side, while Packey ts from the Gouth. Curiously enough, Packey and Britton Jook somewhat alike, They rank among the cleverest of the lightweights. They outolags the others in speed; each has easily gone through a long } ponents, and when Packey h: @ man, along comes Britton and tries to trim him o little harder just to show that he is in Packey's clus, for Packey gaye be isn’t, and ‘hints that Jack ten't a “drawing card.” Whereat Jack te + gemewhet peeved, not to say angered outright. RITTON did get @ chance with MoFarland a few months ago at Memphis. They fought an eight- found bought. At the end of it the referee deckied “draw. Some of the qpectators expressed dingust because the decision wasn't rendered tn favor of Britton; others were annoyed because MoFartand wasn't declared winner. Chicago newspaper said outright oat Britton was “robbed” of the decision, Dan Morgan, Britton's present manager, who hates publicity, has had 500,000 copies of this article run off on @ job press, and is spending his private fortune on postage stamps, eending them to every sporting writer in the known world. Britton thought that he won. He con- odved the idea that McFarland was “easy” for him, and he began running about the country challenging Mclar- Jana to another match. He didn’t get Peokey. For some reason, unknown to ‘the writer, Packey had no answer to make to Britton'’s challenges. Once, with the question put squarely up to him, he said: “Why, Britton ie a good Doser, but he woukin’t draw much with me.” Britton wouldn't have drawn much « fow months ago, but since becoming an inmate of the Morgan stable he has deem given chances to fight. That he cam fight I ju@ge by the great re- luctance of all other lghtweights to meet him. He has « hari time geiting any matches at all. He has been nearly matched with Mandot, Ritchie, Rivers, ‘Welgast, Welsh—and on each occasion the club promoters have notified him that the other fighter has “ducked out.” Morgan has secured him a few chances to fight, in and near New York. Every time he started he “made good.” He shoWed rare speed and skill, 18 most recent performance of noto wae an easy vjetory over Leach Cross, whom he outclassed. He beat Cross nearly as badly MeFar- lamd beat him. The only difference was thet MeFerland plunged in headiong and fought Crosse off his fest, while Britton fought a clever, casy fight, Watehing the dangerous Cross swings and jabbing and jolting him without taking any risk, reaching hin and wetting away by use of supertor speed.
