JOHNSON SQUIRES
GO LOOKS QUEER
Report That Men Have
Signed for $4,000

Squires has postponed his trip TO the

tation IN saying that the information
supplied by New York IS bogus.
The message does not read as though
it had come Under the pillows and past
the coral reefs only a few days ago
the Sydney Referee cabled the Exam
liner that Squires would leave Australia
for san Francisco on March II. and II
there had been any change in Squires'
plans the Examiner would have had the
news direct

II Is no secret. OF course. that when

manQ tor SuuIeS-JDhnSou clash has
increased so far as Sydney Is concerned.
