Sam Fitzpatrick. kid" Lavignes
old manager. has taken charge Of
Arthur Cripps, the latest Australian
box to seek honors in this country
Cripps is a typical representative Of
the antipodes and looks the part Of a
real fighter. Australia has sent 50
many good men to the shore Of Uncle
Sam that no matter how fast they
come the fighters from the land Of
the kangaroo are sure to receive much
attention from the boxing critics and
the sporting public in general. Nine
out Of ten Australian boxers who have
fought in America have made good,
and taking this for a criterion we may
expect great things from the new
conner. Fitzpatrick has posted $1,000
with Jimmy Wakely, the New York
sporting man, TO bind match with
Tommy Ryan. but it is .proable the
Australian will have to look for
smaller game at the start. Cripps
fought Jack Williams recently and
beat him in two rounds. His showing
very much pleased Manager Fitzpat-
rick, who thinks he will be able to
annex the American middle-weight
championship title to his name.

David Bispham again wants to be
an actor man. It is a renewed rather
than a new ambition with the grand
opera singer Next, season, he de-
clares he is going to make the try. and
though he has selected neither his
company nor his repertoire. he inti-
mates that he will include a Shake
spearean character or two and per-
haps something more modern and TO
mantle.
MY reason" he said. for taking
up the stage and dropping grand
opera is because ] believe the highest
appeal to the public is made through
the combination Of acting and speak
ing. The voice in conversation re-
quires serious training. and the years
in grand opera, with my early training
in music. fit me more thoroughly for
the part Of an actor than had I mere
ly studied the primary rules Of elocu-
tion, which is all many actors aeon
plish.
There is so little chance for suit
able acting in grand opera. Here and
there one finds a character who has
the genius 10 make the greatest inn
preston by singing and acting at the
the same time but they are rare.
The latter is not considered a neces-
Fary part OF grand opera work. II a
great singer does act the part so
much the better for the audience, but
neither public, nor manager, nor
singer. considers the dramatic part
necessary to finished opera work.
THE singer must always be an
abstract quantity to his audience. The
actor becomes a part and parcel OF
his hearers. He dominates their feel
ings, he carries them into another
world. he becomes another personal
