BARRY WORKS
EXTRA HOURS
is TRAINING AT. ARCADIA FOR GO
NEXT WEEK
Rudolph Unholz Anxious to Get Match
with Memsic, and May Land
If Peter Sullivan
Fails

Now that everything is settled in re-
gard to the length of his fight with Sam
Langford Jim Barry is settling down to
real work at the Oakwood inn, and in
the few days left to him before the battle
will put IN extra hours conditioning for
the go. Sparring partners are scarce at
the Arcadia camp, and Barry will con-
fine most of his efforts to road work and
bag punching.
When he came here Barry expected to
have Mike Twin Sullivan to help him,
but the toupeeless wonder has changed
his mind since he saw the Chicago lad
mix it a little. Hes too tough for me-"
says Mike. II did intend to box with
him, but don't want to take any chances
with my hands. There may be an en-
gagement for me around here soon and
when it comes L want to be ready"
With short go in view Barry expects
to more than hold his own with the dinge.
While he does not feel equal to a twenty
round mix the newcomer feels that he
can whip Langford and beat him to a
decision in ten rounds and will go into
the ring confident of his ability to take
care of all the Langfords in the business
Langford is still working away at the
pavilion and is in fine fettle for any old
kind of a mill. He has learned from two
previous fights with Barry that his op-
or lightly rated, and while the negro Is
confident of winning he does not under
estimate Barry. Ten rounds is not such
short time When d good man is In the
ring to oppose everything that comes
along, and Langford has fitted himself
perfectly to be ready.
The second preliminary to the main
event was arranged yesterday, with Kid
Webster and Kid Dobbert as participants.
Dobbert has been try Ing to land a match
for long time and at last he is to be
sent up against about as much class as
can be found among the little fellows.
Dannie has been a good trial horse and
any of the debutantes who get over him
can go as far as they like with the best
bantams in harness.
McCarey is trying to rig up an irnova-
ton in the shape of a pair of Japanese
mftt artists to open tie evenings doings,
but If he is not successful Eddie Menny
and Harry Dunn may be matched. The
boys should go well together, and unless
the brown men come to the front in
hurry they may be given a chance
against each other.
Rawhide Kelly's latest wonder, Rudolph
Unholz, is anxious to poke finger in the
local pie, and If he can't do better Is
willing to take on Kl Dalton, just 10
show the Missourians that his title of
Unholz contends that as he fought Peter
Sullivan a draw and as the latter is
matched with George Memsic he is en-
titled to as much consideration.
According to Mike Twin Sullivan, Peter
Will be in from Salt Lake today. The
pride of Boston said yesterday that he
was in receipt ot a wire from Salt Lake
which announced the other Sullivan's de-
parture from the Mormon center of pop-
ulation, and which also stated that ne
would be ready for Memsic any time Nc.
Carey saw fit to put them on.
Mike Twin is eagerly waiting for
brother Jawn, who is due from San Fran
cisco Sunday. The twins are planning an
excursion into the realms of vaudeville,
and Mike wants to get in few rehear-
sails before the big debut comes off He
is a daily attendant at Santa Anita park,
and on mind bets is 1000 bucks ahead of
the game While this will not buy dump
carts Mike is we'll satisfied with the way
he plays them. and until Jack gets here
will be content to watch the ponies run
and think of all the money he is saving.
