Morris or one of the other champions
of the white race.
The promoters on the Pacific coast
are doing their best to get some Of
the star New York boxers to go West.
The San Francisco boxing experts
have beeen particularly active in this
respect. Many of them are after K.
o. Brown and other promising East
ern lightweights. Now that boxing
is on a safer plane it is not likely
that this fall will witness any of the
stars going West. There is too much
money to be paid in the East and they
don't have to travel several thous-
and miles to get it. The best The
West can hope for is to secure the
East's second raters-the little fell
lows who can't shine or make money
while the noted boxers hold the stage.
