 Palzer is only a youngster; e2 years Of age, l believe. He is without a doubt the "class" of all the white heavies with the possible exception Of Jim Flynn. It may be Mccarthy is made of the right scrt of stuff, as his knockout of Morris suggests. At any rate the logical white heavyweight match would be between this pair.
 Eddie Graney, the San Francisco promoter, had planned an internat l ional contest for the Fourth of July with Palzer and Bombadier Wells as principals, but the Briton declined the issue. Why not substitute Morris conqueror? Billy McCarney announces that his charge is open to meet any white man in the world. O'Rourke would no doubt be agreeable to the match. With Johnson' and Flynn mixing in New Mexico and Palzer and Mccarthy at it in California, the Nations holiday would be fittingly observed.
 A few weeks ago ran across Jim Flynn and Jack Curley and had a long and interesting chat over the formers prospects in the coming bat tie with Jack Johnson. I had been under the impression that Flynn realized he was undertaking a hope less task, and frankly said so, but during our conversation he convinc- ed me of his sincerity in the belief that he can turn the tables on the champion. One has to admire the grit of the man and give him credit for being one of the gamest in the business.
 Jim is taking gamblers chance and stalking everything on the one turn of the cards. He appreciates the fact that he must win to make anything out of the affair and that his future as fighter as money earner depends on the result. He could reap large financial harvests by tackling smaller game, but his ambition is to be champion heavy weight of the world and means to win that coveted title or bust in the attempt.
 Curley has invited me to attend the contest and to act in an advisory capacity, and I will do so provided can so arrange my business affairs to permit it. Flynn believes in him. self; of that I'll swear, and because of that is entitled to the support of every white man interested in the sport. know what it means to be a rank outsider and not conceded a chance to win. was up against the same thing once in my career- when matelfed to box John E Sulli- van for the championship. There fore Pm for Flynn and hope to be in position to render him whatever assistance lies in my power in his efforts to win the title from the ne- gro.
 Neither Frank Klaus nor Jack Dill lon added to his reputation in their recent ten round bout in this city. New Workers had been led to believe that Dillon is whirlwind fighter who had been given the worst of the decision in the twenty round bout with Klaus on the coast; they were greatly disappointed at the ordinary performance he put up at the Gar den. Championship quality was lack ing in both men, and while Klaus deserved the verdict on his aggres- sive policy, he did not show marked superiority over his opponent. It is the consensus of expert opinion that Eddie McGoorty could take the mea- sure of both men, and that Mike Gibbons would make either look fool ish in a limited contest.
 I note that Dillon and McGoorty have signed for a ten round bout in indianapolis May 29. If Jack can do no better than he showed against Klaus, he faces sure defeat as Me- Goorty is a very clever and hard hit ting boxer, and on the improve" all thu tiror At that Dillon may have been handicaped in the Klaus con test; he claims to have injured his left hand early in the proceedings and that he was unable to use it to advantage after that. l advise him to get in the best of shape before tackling the Oshkosh man.
