20 November q. but the bout has been
declared of C0rbett was responsible Tor
the calling of Of the bout, though he some
time ago had agreed TO meet the AKRON
giant. Corbett claims that his reason TOT
declaring of the bout was on account OF
the promise that Billy Brady has made
him that he will give him the first chance
with Jeffries if the latter beats Sharkey.
II is needless 10 say that both Ruhlln and
his manager. Billy Madden, are displeased
al loosing the chance to meet CorDett'
for Rubin. is OF the opinion that he can
beat the former champion. and had toOAel
mon the bout as a means OF Strengthening
his right TO a match with the winner Of
the coming Jeffries- -Sharkey fight Local
snorts TOO. had begun to take an interest
IN C,nrhett.s appearance against Ruhlin.
but it's all off now. Billy Madden said
last night that If Corbett is unsuccessful
in meeting the winner OF the big fight
ba will let Rubin fight him at any time,
either in a six or twenty-round bout.
