and then four years later the man that
has the championship title be a cow
ard and a poor fighter? He must
have had something to win 1t and
must be something to keep it. There
are just a few facts that should be

say that the present champion is
a skillful boxer; that he has science
and is a ring general; yet, others say
he has a yellow streak. Now, If that
be true, and is known, any good hard
slugger would be able to put him
away. Yet none seem to be in a hurry
to take the job. Of course Johnson is
going to be defeated sometime. He
cannot remain champion always; but
it is a safe bet that he is the best
man in his class to-day, and when he
does go down and out the same
strong young fighter will turn the

TOMMY SCULLY, fSCANABA
BOXER. Is BADLY SCALDfD
The Well Known Bantam Weight
Fighter Falls Into Vat Of
Boiling Water
RIGHT LEG BURNED TO KNEE

While at work at the plant of the
Escanaba Manufacturing company
early Thursday night, Tommy Sculiy,
champion bantam weight boxer of
Michigan, slipped into vat of boiling
water and his right leg was badly
scalded. says the Escanaba Press.
Scully was at work on the skidway
moving logs when in passing one of
the watts he slipped and fell into the
hot water. His right leg was badly
sc"lded TO the knee while his left limb
was slightly burned.
Several fellow employees saw Scully
as he fell into the vat and rushed
quickly to his assistance and pulled
him out. He was FASTENED to the
Michigan hotel where a physician was
summoned and the scalded limb was
dressed.
Had it not been for the prompt as
sistance given the little boxer in es-
Gaping from the vat it is believed by
witnesses that he would have been
crippled for life.
Scully, unlike most boxers. has q
penclnnt for real work. Throughout
the greater portion of the summer he
was employed on construction work AT
the National Grocer company's new
building. When that contract was
COMPLETED he at once sought new
position and last Monday began work
at the plant of the Escanaba Manu-
featuring company.
