MAY PROVE A CHAMPION
Toothpick Kelly, California Pug,
Stands 6 Feet 6 Inches and
Weighs $40 Pounds. =

There is a new fighting wonder In San
Francisco who promises to become "a
champion some day. -
His name is Kelly, and they call him
.''Toothpick," for short, or, more properly,
for .:long,'' as he is nearly feet tall, and
quite as heavy as big Ed Dunkhorst. -.
"Bill' Naughton, the veteran fighting
critic, is one of the coast authorities who
think well of the giant. He says:
winter racing is in full blast here now,
and boxing has received a kind of sym.
pathetic boost. b.. IT,
. 1--WE have more high-class novices than
you could shake a fist at, and the pro-
motors are looking forward to a highly
productive season. Jimmy Britt, who de-
feated Erne a night or two ago, is, of
course, the pet Of the fancy just at pres
ent. i-.-<. 5i<
I'm style he compares with Terry Nc
Govern, though, possibly, he would re-
mind you more of George Lavigne, when
the latter was moving his way through
the lightweigths. ~" al
He is a natural fighter-just loves the
stress of the thing-and is so well knit
that hard raps don't seem to bother him.
San Francisco sports think they have
an embryo worlds champion in Tooth :
pick Kelly, though just why he was called
Toothpick' I can't fathom.
He is about 6 feet, 6 inches high, and
weighs .240 pounds, trained. He is as
fast as a featherWeight, and he knows how
to send them in
There is crackajack feather here, too,
in the person of Ed Hanlon. He is body
fighter, and just tears the ribs out of the
fellows who oppose him. I shouldn't won
der If he becomes a good second George
Dixon. He is q white boy.
HE has a rival by the way, in Frank
Neal, who is to box Harry Forbes. Neal
and Hanlon boxed a draw about year
ago. +
Down at Los Angeles they have a
couple of promising colored heavies
These are Jack Johnson and Sam Mcvey
The former has defeated Jack Jeffries
Frank Childs and George Gardner. He is
a graceful boxer, and Is very precise in
hitting and blocking.
HE reminds me Of old Peter Jackson
but he is just q little shy, think, in the
delivery department. McVey recently
Knocked out big Fred Russell, and is re-
garded as very likely man
