JOHNSON AGREES
TO GO FORTYFWE

Jack johnson and Al Kaufman will
fight a forty-ive-round contest next
September, if the promoter who can
handle the affair overbids h man with
the twenty-round limit. Johnson de-
cided upon that yesterday afternoon,
and when he met Charley Harvey last
night almost knocked the "human
megarhone'' off the chair with the
Jews.
Yes said the champion, leaning back
and tanning himself. I'll give Mr..
Kaufman and Billy Delaney exactly
What they asked for. / thought for 9
while that the twenty-round go would
draw. but after talking 1t over with
prominent New York sports | see that
we can draw double the amoun with a
longer bout and make the affair twice
as interesting from a betting stand
point There are a lot of people who
don't give Al a chance with. me in q
twenty-round bout, but think that In
forty-ffve he might tire me u ana
wear me down, so h a I'd be easy for
the knockout.
They think that way, and, of course.
/ think the other way, but If we can
draw double. the gate I'm for the forty

cheered to the echo by the respective
followers of the Bulldog and the Tiger.

run for Princeton In each OF the second
