His Future Is Keeping the Local
Talent Guessing.


The local sporting fraternity has been
kept guessing as to what will be Jim
Judges plans if he wins Monday
nights 20-round boxing contest with
Frank BARLEY, of Binghamton. The
speculation has been heightened by the
challenge to the world in Judges be-
half by his manager, Jack Skelly, who
is the matchmaker for the American
Sporting club. The challenge was is
sued through the New York papers and
placed the weight limit at 14O pounds.
One conclusion has been reached-in
fact, Skelly makes no concealment of
the fact-that the bout with BARLEY
will be Judges final test before going
against the real big game Of the tistic
world. But who the Scrantonian's
opponent or opponents are to be is
something that hasn't been ascertained
and something that Skelly doesn't care
to talk about. The latter's silence can
he partly explained, however, on the
fact that Juge's victory over Barley,
the recognized champion welterweight
of western and central New York, bar
ring Ryan. is by no means assured.
The engaging of Sam Austin for re-
feree is further evidence of the i'm
portance placed upon the approaching
contest. There is some good reason
in having for referee the man who re-
fereed the McCoyCreedon battle and
who is one of the best known ring
officials in the world. Aside from the
good reason for engaging Austin, what
ever it may be, there is no gainsaying
the credit due Skelly and the Ameri-
can club for providing so great an au-
thority-and probably at a big ex-
