Big Purses Abroad Make It
Hard for u. S. Promot-
ers to Land Fights.

San Francisco, Cal. March 25.-It is
getting harder and harder for the pro-
motors of pugilism to secure high class
attractions The reason OF this Is that
the sport has spilled itself in every d.
rection over the globe and that match
makers are reaching out for the best
cards from the uttermost ends Of the
earth.
Quite frequently in the recent past.
American fight handlers when quoted
their top figures to some one they
wanted to sign. have been told that
better offers were Forthcoming from
Paris and Australia
IT has reached a stage, in fact, where
a tip-top ringman Is in a position to
name his own price.
Tom McCarey of Los Angeles is
among the men who are beginning to
complain of the inordfnate demands OF
the fighters. McCarey for quite a while
has had a monopoly almost OF the
matches that are worth seeing He has
displayed great shrewdness In develop
ing boxers and in pairing the men he
has developed, and he has made Los
Angeles one OF the foremost pugilistic
centers OF the country.

Hurting Recruit Passes the
Big League Test, Allow
ing Four Hits.

Austin. Texas. March 25.-Mr. Otto
Casper Peters passed his examin alton
yesterday afternoon for admittance in
to the big league The tall young
pitcher recruit for the White Sox led
Callahan's Premiers to an easy victory
over the Austin Statesmen. champions
of the Texas league, to l. Peters
went the entire route of nine innings.
The Premiers should have made
about seven more runs. but lost them
by some mixed up base running. How =
ever. they always were leading by a
comfortable margin, and Mr.. Peters
wouldn't permit the Texans to become
ravenous at any stage of the game. In
deed, the tall German should have won
by a shutout, but NJ. Jacques Fourier
failed to carry ont his end of a snappy
double play, the ball going through
him to the stand. This gave the home
folks an opening to make their lone
tally and do all their cheering.

K. o. LEARNING
TO BE CLEVER

George Knockout Brown is learn
ing to be clever. That's what his
manager, Nate Lewis, says. and it
must be so. George tried out his
clever stuff on Ray Parker at East
Chicago Saturday night. Result
with ten-ounce gloves over his
Greek maulers he had the tough
steamfitter hanging over the ropes
in the middle of the tenth round,
oblivious to his surroundings. The
referee stopped the fight and George
won.
You may not believe It." said
Nate yesterday. but Brown shot all
his punches straight at Parker. He
tented. sidestepped, trapped Ray
into leads and all that sort of thing.
You would not think he was the
same fighter. You know the out
come. He won in a canter and he'll
beat all the middleweights now that
he has cut out the haymaker swings.
Now / want to start Brown
against Eddie McGoorty. TIL post
$500 to guarantee that can pull on
the bout Monday week or two weeks
from now. Well use ten-ounce
gloves. or mitts half that size
whichever suits McGoorty. And II
the. Irishman will sign up for a
twenty -round whirl I'll make him a
$1,000 side bet. I guess that's fair
enough"
After that Nate got busy taking in
the change IN his billiard hall.

Parker should develop into top
