THE big fellow is certainly playing
an honest game with his friends" said
Owner Jack Doyle last night. "All of
the camp boys went to the theater last
night. but Jim stayed at home alone,
and at 9:o5 the lamp in his sleeping
room had been blown out. I believe he
is sincere in wanting to pose as the
white heavyweight champion. He is
going about 1t right and deserves cred
1T for doing the square thing"
Flynn is on edge right now, but
needs some boxing to loosen him up. In
the way of sparring partners McCarty

hustled over to Bill O'ConnelTs gym

dog always rests on Sunday and will
need plenty of preparation before he
sticks up his hands in front Of the Nc
Farland lad.
A letter from Murphy to Mcbride has
preceded the fighters arrival and Ed
die expresses great confidence therein
in his ability to cope successfully with
the pride OF the yards
II suppose folks in Chicago think
Packey will have an easier time with
me at Kenosha than he did at South
Bend last whitehall because 1 made a
poor showing against Jack Britton at
Boston. Britton is better than his
home people realize. but he can't beat
me when I am right.
THE night / fought Britton I had
cramps in the stomach. a sprained left
thumb and was way to the bad gener-
| ally. Almost anybody could have beat
en- me that night Britton knows he
caught me when far off my stride and
that is why he Is artfully lodging an
other meeting with yours truly.
You remember l told you last win
/ ter that I was sure I could beat Nc
Farland. Well. I admit l was wrong
/ that time. Packey nailed me with that
| lucky punch on the chin in the fourth
round and that earned him the shade
| at South Bend. I was holding my own
| nicely at the end And do you know
I expect to do much better this time
There won't be any knockdowns scored
by Mcfarland al Kenosha- Packey Is
