interest in the coming Aground bout
between heavyweights AL Kaufman
and Jim Barry, on Dec. 80. is already
flet Enormous crowds, saw both men
in training yesterday. Between 1000
and 1900 spectators overlooked the
circus seats at Doyle's resort. the
South Side A. c.. where Barry Is work
ing.
The big Chicagoan labored for over
an hour. He walloped the punching
bag for six full three-minute rounds
and then made a clean sweep OF the
camp supply OF sparring partners.
Barry has entered into his work
for this battle In the proper spirit,
said Manager Teddy Murphy. He is
chuck full of enthusiasm and realizes
that to beat Kaufman will put him In
line TO meet the winner OF the Jack
Johnson Tommy Burns bout"
AL Kaufman let up at his Vencie

Sam Langford and Jim Flynn will meet

that many OF the elements which fig
ure In the violent upsets and upheavals
OF the prize ring are In sight
Flynn, of Pueblo, has always been
more or less OF stumbling block TO
the ambitions OF others. He is game
TO the core, and he has never gone in
for picking and choosing. He has been
against Jack (Twin) Sullivan. Tommy
Burns. Australian Bill Squires, Al
Kaufman and even big Jack Johnson.
All his fights, both winning and los

Fireman Flynn has gone out OF his

said Langford at his camp today. II
will try and make every round a
Langford round. How long II will
take me to defeat Flynn | would not
care to venture an opinion"
In discussing the outlook, Flynn
said
II used to think that there wasn't
a colored fighter on earth able TO take
my measure. but, OF course. | changed
my views after tackling that black
giant Jack Johnson. At the present
time it is my belief that there Is no
colored man of my weight or under
who can beat me, and this. of course,
includes Mr.. Langford. | know he Is
great man with the gloves. but
don't suppose he figures to be better
than Johnson"
Flynns seconds will be Tim Nc

The betting on the match remains

fenced his first defeat since he started
in his local work Saturday night at
the National Athletic club, at the
hands OF John Willie, OF Chicago.
The bout went the limit, but the
Chicagoan showed the better speed
and was entitled to the decision.
Willie forced the fighting in the
third. fifth and sixth rounds and land
ed most of the blows. Kubiak was
swinging wildly most OF the time and
Willie, by his clever foot work, man
aged to get out OF the way OF most
OF the blows.
The bout was remarkably fast for
heavyweights, both men doing their
share OF clever ring work.
