ACK BRITTON, welterwe ght champion, is a better fichier a hi-tyeeven than he t years ago. fer Morgan, his manager ever @ince Jack began to work up ti the championship, writes me @ [eW | pmsured in tuteresting lines about the welter king. “ Britton’ careful living as well as bix \onderful success is dus to his boxing bead,’ says Morgan “Jack | eats plain food and plenty of it, and) (Oo. he ts not a Prohibitionist In any form Any one who bas a case of Scotch and is afraid to keep it can send it to Britton. He also-smokes a good cigar now and then and enjoys life “Jack is married and has three children, Billy Is five years old, Bob- by three and Betty one. When he is Not training or travelling for a bout you can always (ind him at home.” A Real Veteran. Britton is a real veteran, He has| been boxing professionally for nine- teen years. All the men who were his | rivals in the early days of his career have gone by and nearly all are for- gotten, but Jack hasn’t even stum- bled. He has fought Leonard before this, and even Benny, with all his skill and hard hitting, was unable to do more than barely hold his own. Briton lost the welter title to Kid Lewis of Ingland away back in 1916, Lewis taking two decisions over him But the next year Britton beat Lewis im a twenty-round fight on the ref- eree's decision. In 1917 Lewis won the title from Britton in a twenty-round bout, taking Referee Lou Bauman’s a ion, He fought Lewis four times in 2918 and seemed unable to over- co the flashy Whitechapel boy's i in skill and hitting power. He wogldn't give up. He trained and stu@ied fighting form and kept after LeWis until he got him again in 1919, on Which occasion he knocked Lew! uttin the ninth round Since then Britton, has been un- beatable in his class. A score of husky rivals have tried in vain to mae an impression on his skilful de- fenge. And it isn’t all defense when | Frit@n yets into a ring. Unlike t ly @il title holders, Britton rety to “play it safe" in any bout, with or witBout a decision. He always sails in spitefully and is perfectly willin to meé@t the other fellow at any kind of mixing he prefers Of the clevor boxers who started with Britton, Packey McFarland re- tired years ago and now weizhs 180 pounds.
