business for Mr.. Mcintosh and to my
knowledge he has never broken a con
tract to date.
It is not often that one boxer will
willingly give another one full credit
for being star, but Ray Bronson, the
Indianapolis WelterWeight, seems to be
an exception to the rule Ray has been
claiming. the welterweight title. hay
ing put In his bid when Jimmy Clabby
announced that he could no longer
make the weight and would advance
into the 1873 pound division. Bronson
has fought all the boys who are in the
hunt for the Welter title and while he
believes he is the rightful holder he
gives full credit to others. Says
Ray in his letter; I saw Kid
Ferns and Tommy Howell fight the
other night and believe me that this
Howell boy is some fighter. He gave
Ferns an aW full battle and it was hard
to choose between them, but take it
from me he is a sure contender for
the WelterWeight championship. He
can make the weight easier than Kid
Ferns. in fact I doubt whether Ferns
can make 142 pounds any more. I am
ready to match up with either one at
the weight for the title, but prefer the
long distance for a match of that

into the Gmelight within the past week,
namely "One Round" Davis, of Buff

the storm for a few fights against
some of the real fighters he viii come

good showing was Frank Moran, who
gave Charlie Miller. the Frisco heavy
weight, a hard battle for four rounds.
Moran looked like a champion when
he was in Paris two years ago. He
had the appearance of a young giant
and handled himself well, but the Paris
life was a bit too much for him and
