California Is Going
ToQueer Fight Game

SACRAMENTO. Cal, Dec. 27.-The
man who caused the lamented JET
fries.Johnson alleged fight to be taken
from California 10 Nevada and created
a seven-day sensation by So doing, Is
going 10 start a pyrotechnical anu
sport display at the coming session oi
the California Legislature In January.
He Is Attorney j. l.. White. legal
representative of the Church Fedora
ton of San Francisco. and his particu'
lar job this winter will be To secure
the passage of such laws as will adj
minister knockout punch To the figlt
game I'm the state and prevent all
gambling at the one race course
Emeryyiile.
Attorney White has already pre-
pared n rough draft of two bills-one
aimed at the fight game and the other
at the sport of kings.
These bills. If passed. will make 1t
impossible for public boxing contest
TO be pulled off and will also stop all
gambling at race courses. Attorney
White is seCretive when II comes down
to the terms OF the bills and the per-
alties provided for violation of the
laws. but gives the impression OF a
man very much pleased with his JOB
and very well satisfied with the out
look for success.
IF the anti-fight bill passes said
Attorney White. iii will prevent any
but bona flde athletic clubs from hold
ing boxing matches. II will stipulate
that a club cannot be formed for tie
express purpose of staging matches
in public. as some Of the socalled
clubs in San Francisco do. They hire
a skating rink. incorporate as some
sort of an athletic club and get into
the fight promotion business. This IS
what the bill will stop. If an admis.
sion fee is charged 10 see contest
it will be violation of the proposed
new law.
The bill will also stop the so-called
shows which are being pre-
NOTED in California and which are Just
as much prize fights as was the JEFF
fries-Johnson affair.

the fighters oral flow resembles the

Few fighters can comprehend that
they received a humping as well as
gave one. Unless they had an ear
massaged until IL is not dissimilar 10

will not believe they were damaged.
This is only natural, because ring

lon is generally regarded as title
holder, but where did he win II! jim
my Walsh and frankie Conley are the
other serious seekers after recognition
as champions.
Walsh and Conley had more of a
show of being elected few months
ago. but their respective growth mas
taken the matter out OF their hahds

supposed TO have become ruler OF the

however, he has acquired lew
pounds more OF beef and IL is eX-
tremely doubtful if he can make ll6
pounds.
frankie Neil won the bantam
championship when he knocked out
Harry Forbes in 1904. Neil then went
over to London and lost a decision to
lem Bowker in twenty rounds. The
battle was not for the championship,
but of course Bowker claimed the
title. Later Abe Attell beat Neil and
so did Owen Moran. But Neil was
not at the bantam limit in these con-
tests. He really outgrew his crown.

McGovern in 1908. who were rated as
the best around the u. s. A., at that
time, according 10 Johnny. After
these victories Johnny signed him
self 'bantamweight champion"
Monte Attell knocked out frankie
Neil in June. 1909. That's where he
got the first idea he was a champion.
The contest was advertised as being
for the bantam title. 1t was pretty
nearly Neils last fight In view Of
this victory Attell probably had a
more secure grasp on the champion
ship than either Walsh or Coulon.
When Conley made Attell see shoot

Conley therefore got possession of
the diamond belt But Conley
apparently, has outgrown his class.
He fought Abe Attell at 12l pounds

Coulon at 116 pounds, three and one
half hours before the commencement
of battle. If Conley can, maze that
