REGARD MUNROE
AS A BIG JOKE
SPORTS OF FRISCO DO NOT LOOK
SERIOUSLY UPON HIS OFFER
TO FIGHT JEFFRlES.
HAS A UNIQUE POSITION
Gains Considerable Notoriety Here and
Then Studously Avoids
Meeting jeff.

1t looks as If Jelfries and Jack Nun
roe will get together in Los Angeles.
.eifries wants revenge for The indignities
heaped upon him in Butte.
Monroe is willing to make the match
If the inducements are right. and the
promoters Of the Southland appear TO
think that the go will fill long felt want.
All the parties interested being of ono
mind and announcement that the contest
has been arranged may be expected any
minute.
What will it be like?
There isn't any question in regard to
the things the champion will do to Mon
roe If the opportunity offers. The only
professional courtesies the Montana man
may expect are swings and walops. viii
he be able to stand enough OF the treat
ment TO imbue the crowd with the feel
ing that il has had a run for its money?
In San Francisco. where Monroe is
remembered as an amateur boxer and foot
baller, he is not taken seriously. That
is why the Frisco clubs pooh4hooed the
proposition when match between jeff
ries and Monroe was suggested after the
recent championship affair.
Come to think of it., Monroe's expert
cHces as professional pngllist nave Decn
somewhat unique. He became celebrity
through standing before Jeifries for few
rounds here in Butte. He made all the
capital possible out OF the thing, mean
while being careful to avoid Jeffries and
all other heavywcights In this respect
he showed that he either possesses consd-
cradle native shrewdness or is peculiarly
amenablc to sound advice.
Now he proposes going against Jeiiries
again. From Jeff he received his boost;
from Jeliries he will in all probability
receive his quietus.
