If Webster gets Conley then another
aspirant must subslde into the also-ran
division, but If Conley comes away a
victor, then Attell must get busy OF
forfeit all rights to the laurels in this
division.
Conley Is parading Spring street with
a record which reads like a chapter of
Grimms fairy tales and says; Watch
my smoke" Neither is Conley partic-
ular as to how much Webster weighs
when the two meet If they ever do.
81 have been fighting lightweights
ever since I was old enough to wear
gloves, and Webster can take on ali
the beef he cares to. OF course I shall
make the Is mark, so that in case l
win the diamond belt will belong to
me-
And here comes the mighty Ad VOL
CAST with big Tom Jones in his wake,
looking for a little easy money, pre-
liminary to another whirl at that king
of battlers, the Durable Dane" Vol
CAST can see but one result to Monday
nights fight with Powell in Frisco and
in this belief he is backed by the ma
jority of local fans. Golden Gate fight
followers look upon the milwaukee,
boys chances of victory in a different
light and have made Powell the favor
lite i'm the betting. Powell is a tough
customer, and weight may tell, but
Wolgasts recent shOwings at least en-
title him to an even break.
Picato Is sanguine
Frank Picato is counting on science
to best Wolgast, whom he fights in this
city on the night of December IA.
Picato believes he has every chance i'm
the world to win. From the present
dope Wolgast should be an Odds-On
favorite Wait until the results of the
Wolgast- Powell affair are flashed over
the wires. Another boy is taking
things easy at Venice preparatory TO
an active winters career, and Rapid
Fire. johnny Frayne is more than
anxious to get on with any boy in the
133-pound decision.
Il was out of condition when I met
Powell" said Frayne, but give me an
other chance and I'll show the fans
what Southern California climate will
do for one"
In the middleweight division Billy
Papke is hurting defiance right ana
left, with Ketchel laying low for the
present The thunderbolt does not con-
fine himself to middleWeights, but will
meet any light-heavy, and is more than
anxious for another chance at his hoo
doc, Stanley Ketchel. Whether ketchel
can be made to see matters in the
same light is a matter Of conjecture.
In the heavyweight division there are
few good ones at present, although
either Willis or Geyer have shown
great possibilities.
Flynn Looking for Chance
Jim Flynn is still hanging around
town waiting for d chance at either
fighter or any other pug against whom
the athletic club may see fit to match
. him. Tuesday nights result does the
possibility Of Flynn-Geyer or a
Flynn-Willis fight hang with the
chances in favor OF Willis. Joe Willis
should never have given Geyer the
golden opportunity which presented it.
self in the ninth frame of their pre-
vious meeting and which almost spelled
curtains for the san Franciscan.
Tuesday nights program with Geyer
and willis as the main eventers should
decide this question Of individual SUI
premacy once and for all. Geyer is
counting on his wind to hold out bet
ter than before, while Win looks for
knockout, with Geyer taking the count
before the final round.
Secretary Hancock also has arranged
a card of prelimnaries which should
draw another record house in case the
main event falls short Of expectations.
The complete card is as follows, with
