Idol Of Jersey City.
Outside OF his family. In hrs home
town Frankie Burns Is nothing less
than an idol. Knockout Brown has his
Second avenue followers. but Burns has
a whole city full of worshippers. They
are proud of the quiet, unassuming lit
tie fellow and his ring record. and
whenever he fights he carries the hopes
and best wishes OF thousands.
For a year past Burns has been the
standard bearer of an association with
a membership OF 200 or more youngsters
like himself. with headquarters at No.
20 First street. There are cards. check
ers and dominoes to be played in tn,

In the house Is the little cubbyhole on
the yard. where the punching bag
hangs. Here any evening a number OF
youngsters. with the example of their
standard bearer before them. are
whanging the bag and going through
the limited exercises that the room
affords. All would emulate frankie.
Burns doesn't know the taste Of in
toxicatins liquor, and he never has
smoked a cigarette or a cigar. Sa-
looms dot his home vicinity, every pro-
prletor and bartender is his friend, yet
