T S Hugh D. Mcintosh, the Aus
tralian fight promoter who stag
ed the Johnson Burns cham
pionship fight in Sydney, selling
something to his townsmen, or has
the American pugilistic world lost
confidence in the ability of its pro-
motors? This is the question that
arises from a story printed in the
Sydney, \. S. w. Bulletin. one of
the leading sporting journals of
that country. Besides telling of the
wonderful plan on the part Of Nc
Intosh to turn the stadium into the
worlds greatest boxing arena, the
story imparts the information that
Hugh Is to make his way to this
country to take hold of a club in
the states that is to surpass any
thing that we have seen thus far.
The story as printed in the Bull
letin does not say just who McIn-
tosh is dickering with nor where
the place is that this wonderful club
is to be. The only reference as to
location is that the arena will be
in the United States. Some small
spot this United States? With such
promoters as Jimmy Coffroth
Jack Curley, Tom McCarey, Billy
Gibson and the many others it is
very doubtful whether Mcintosh
can break in under the Stars and
Stripes unless he is ready to fur
nish the bankroll.

The clipping as printed in the
Bulletin reads
Hugh D. Mcintosh has COM

Sydney Stadium. and that hall of

Improvements have been carried
through. The size Of the great in
closure will be in no way reduced
and the unsightly boardings on its
walls will give way to an orna-
mental front and elegant sides. The
entrances will be of a new and
improved design, by which a crowd
will walk in about a dozen abreast
and yet be capable of perfect check

To Promote in States.
For McIntosh's appearance in
the United States seems to be an
assured thing now. Sometime ago
a fairly gilded syndicate wrote to
him, asking him for the use Of his
name, proposal which he turned
down with emphasis. The offer
has now come in a different form,
and the syndicate has offered him
the opportunity of coming in on
the ground floor as general high
priest of the show. So, while the
stadium is being rebuilt, McIn-
tosh will HE him away and go into
details of the matter and, in all
human probability, emerge as the
worlds boss fight promoter. and
have special prayer meetings held
on his behalf"
