A DvICES from Cleveland at noon
"a state that Abe Attell will not be
kept out of the lighting game
permanently by the injuries he received
last night in his bout with Tommy Kill
bane Physicians say that he may be
able to fight again within two months.
His bouts with Pal Moore and Patsy
Kline are called off.
Another change in the all-star show
to be held at the American A. c. in
Philadelphia on February 8 a been
made necessary by the injuries Attell
received last night. Patsy Kline Will
now meet Tommy O'Toole, who orig
inally was scheduled to box with Joe
Coster, but an operation for appendi-
citis on Coster caused the bout to be
called off, and O'Toole was left with
out a match.
Frankie Burns, who was not orig
inally on the program, will meet Young
O'Leary. Ad Wolgast and K. o. Brown
are to meet in the star hout if no in
jury overtakes either before that night.
Joe Jeanette and Jim Barry will also
go six rounds.
Tom O'Rourke is trying hard to re-
match frankie Burns and Digger stan
ley. He may succeed, though up to
yesterday he had not been successful.
That's the way to settle the ramblings
of the poor sporting writer's whose
heads have turned from their lonesome
ness. We bet Burns wins the next
time, too.
Ben Douglass and Jack Denning. of
New York, are arxiously awaiting
the gong tomorrow night which will
set them In action in the star bout
of the Proctor A. g. at Renner's Hall.
Both are In good shape and a good
bout should be the result. Young
Schwartz and Bobby Moore meet in
the semi-fnal. There will be the usual
tour preliminaries.
Sammy Keller, the English fighter.
would like to get a match with Patsy
Kline. of this city, at 11S pounds. KEEL
Ter will meet Tommy Houck or Monte
Attell in Philadelphia hext week. He
is also matched to meet Patsy Branni-
gan at Wateryliet, n. Y.
One hOuHu ftOBd4 is On MS way EdSl

he matched to meet X. o. Brown at the
Madison A. Cain Manhattan, on Wash
ington's Birthday.
The cup offered to the champion bats
man of the County League will be
awarded Player Flanagan, of the New
ark team, by e. G.. Koenig & Son to-
morrow unless the league rescinds it's
previous action giving the trophy to
Tlannigan before IL O'Clock tonight.
The STAR advised this course from the
start.
Young Kurtz is now under the wing
of Hymie Gross, and will start a new
campaign Of bouts shortly.

TO the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
Your paper and your contemporary
disagree as to the winner of the Burns
Stanley fight of last Friday. We notice
that you give the honors to Burns and
that your arch-enemy gives them to
Stanley. Your story and heading jibe
and therefore Q are at least consist
ent. Your enemy in his heading says
that Stanley was ~cleverer than Burns
but away Town in his story he tells
about how wild Stanley was for such
a clever boxer and how he missed. He.
must have been clever. Last night he
said Bob Edgren admitted that Stan
ley had won. Read Edgren's story and
you won't find any such conclusion.
Kid Mccoy and Tom O'Rourke, though
they say Stanley won, are not the
whole thing in pugilism. The vast ma
1ority gave this bout to Burns and
that should settle it. 1T is laughable
to find Joe Villa. of the New York Sun,
and his Newark friend, who perches In
the middle of the front row
wherever he goes. consoling each
other in their loneliness. It's too
bad. Maybe, though. your Newark
friend will recover his usual brain
power" when his New Years resolu-
tion peters out. 7. w. c.
We rest on our story, T. W. c. We
have not been compelled to publish coll
umns explaining our lone position.-Ed,
