.DUNLEAVY WOULD NOT FIGHT
REFUSED TO MEET BURNS IN
THE RING.
Developed a Large Case Of "Xellow
Streak''-Clever Exhibition Given
by Young Christy and Burns

The fight scheduled to take place last
night at Clark 8. Bange's club rooms
did not come off. No blame can be at
tached to Sammy Clark or to JACK
Burns, one Of the principals. The tizzle
was entirely due to the conduct OF
Jack Dunleavy, the other principal,
who refused TO enter the ring
When the time arrived for the princi-
pals to go on. Dunleavy announced that
there was not enough money in the
house, and refused to meet Burns.
Sammy Clark then offered them the
entire receipts. in order to not dlSdp-
point the crowd. Dunleavy said that
his arm was not well and that he dld
not care to take any chances unless ne
was assured of more money HIS arm
did not appear to hurt him when ne
weighed in at ( o'clock in the AFTER
noon, nor earlier in the evening
To the spectators it looked nke a
case of a very large yellow streak.
Clark was out quite a sum OF money

wanted to refund the money 20 the

Clark then offered to fight him nm
self, but even this would not loosen the
would-be fighter.
AS to the exhibition that Christy and
Burns put up the latter made favor
able impression with the crowd and eX-
hibited great deal of cleverness. He
was no match for Christy in speed, but
convinced those present that he would
have made short work of DunleaVy.
Christy, who is a faVOrite with the
local sporting fraternity, easily main
tanned the reputation he made for HIM
self in his bout with Jim Francis. He
is the fastest youth ever seen IN a
local ring.
In the pTeliminaTies Jim Francis
went on with kid" Edwards, but as
Francis had been celebrating New
Years, his work was not satisfactory
to Sammy Clark, and the latter went
into the ring himself and trimmed the
cOlOTed champion in good shape He
