Funny how some people become hor-
rified when a boxer is hurt, but how
Indifferent they are when men are
killed on the football. baseball or cycle
fields. or when they are killed by dOz-
ems on the automobile race tracks and
in airships. etc. In France it has been
recorded the past year or two that the
deaths from auto accidents and flights
in the air have been enormous, running
up into the hundreds. but the moment

~ RETTY soon the east will
~ begin to concede that all
= the nice things that have
been said about Joe Rivers, Next
can lightweight is not mere ma
tive son publicity
There is always a suspicion east
Of the eAfississippi-an perhaps
with justification in the past
that CalifOrniaus are wont to boost
their own product too highly In
the case of Rivers this suspicion,
the east thought, was particularly
relevant.
For Rivers is a boxing member
who has never been seen in action
outside Of California. He has never
tasted any Of the easy money OF
New York He has always fought
and fought hard for all that he
has taken from the ring
When a short time ago Ad w OIL
CAST declared that the probability
was that his next fight would be
with Rivers the east let out long
vail and said that Addie was
framing a soft thing for himself
But Rivers has shown in every
bout that he has been in that he
is more and more entitled TO
championship mill He has ev-
erything that a prospective candt-
date for championship honors
should have and ne has benlno
that a record which entities him
to a fling at the top award IN his
profession
Saturday young Jose further ce-
mented his claims to fistic honor
by picking Jack White of Chicago
I'm twelve rounds. White is no
easy customer He has a reputa-
ton about Chicago as being one
Of the hardest little hitters in the
SEN Pivars b,De Fl on him and
put it onto the Chicagoan as easily
a. he has every other championship
prospect that has come out OF the
east, with one notable exception,
that exception being Johnny XII
bane, to whom Rivers lost, as has
been iterated through these col
umns many times, by sheer care
lessness-
On the other hand it will be
hardly fair to ask Sporting
writer to pick a winner in the
coming Rivers-W Olgast bout when
they eventually settle on the date
for the sport writer cannot DO this
without straddling a bit
It IS not general knowledge that
some fistic experts make prac-
tfce of ''straddling' on every i'm
pOrtant mill whose outcome seems
a bit dubious. They say nice things
about each and then no matter
which wins the fistic expert can
point back to the day when hiE
prognosis fOretOld just what was
going to happen
The straddle in this instance
would be entirely due to the fact
that no one can feel absolutely
certain of WolgaSt's condition
since his operation for appendi-
citis last Thanksgiving day
If he is the same old Adolph his
vicious infighti1g is going to more
than offset anything that Rivers
can put over. If on the other hand
Wolgast's interior is not as tough
as il was, the punch which Rivers
carries in either hand is going to
make twenty rounds the toughest
sort Of shedding for the lightweight
champion.
Later we will have more to say
about this battle 1t should be the
best Of the year.
