FLYNN "SNAPPED' IN FIFTY POSES
FIGHTER HERE IS IN GREAT DE- MAND BY SPORTING WRITERS
 OF THE COUNTRY.
At Last They Realize That His Meet ing With Johnson for Champion
 ship is a Serious Event.

Jack Curley, the well known Chi cago sporting man, who is handling Jim Flynn, LIT Artha Johnsons op- ponent in the championship battle at Las Vegas. N. M., on the Fourth of July, had very voluminous mail yes- terday. He also was the recipient of big bundle of telegrams. anci- dentally, he accompanied Flynn fin his customary drill over the mountains in the morning and after lunch saw that the Pueblo fireman was properly pho tographed, so many are the requests from the big northern and eastern newspapers for pictures of the famed white heavyweight.
 Curley and Flynn have been guests at the Arlington hotel since Monday and plan to remain in the city until next Monday or Tuesday. But to get back to the telegrams received by Curley yesterday Two are of inter- est to the sporting public and news- reading public generally, and copies of them were furnished the Sentinel Record. Tommy Ryan, the former king of the middleweights, and one of the cleverest and craftiest ring men fistiana has ever known, wired Curley from Oakland. Cal, as follows:
 T am here with my fighter, Jim Morrow, who fights here tomorrow night l am with you and Flynn to the finish and will be in Las Vegas not later than May g."
 Another interesting telegram re- ceived by Curley yesterday was from Eddie Geiger, who is the chief assist ant of Sporting Editor Ed Smith Of the Chicago Examiner. Geiger is a close follower of the fight game; in fact, he writes practically exclusively of the ring characters. Curley and Geiger are warm personal friends and Curley, who has worked his way into first place among the country's sport promoters and who put it over Tom O'Rourke, Tom McCarey and the oth- CT American fight promoters, as well as the promoters of England and France, is arranging the Flynn-John- son match and then operating as a trusted committee of one in securing the battle-ground, was all smiles after reading the Chicago sporting ex- pert's message. Geigers telegram reads as follows:
 We have 1t straight from New York that Johnson has already start ed to train himself for his fight with Flynn. At least every paper in Chi. cago is taking the fight seriously Keep us posted with all news and rush us training camp pictures
 The Chicago Tribune, Chicago Inter. Ocean, Cincinnati Enquirer, Cincin- heitl 1oAlHciNldi lllDuut, NEW IOlh Sun, New York Morning Telegraph Denver Post and Kansas City Journal in addition to the Chicago Examiner are just some of the prominent news papers which wired Press Representa- tive H, W. Lanigan for stories" and photographs yesterday. Accordingly Flynn and Curley spent the greater part of the afternoon at the Arling ton Studio The Pueblo fireman wa. snapped" in upwards of 50 different poses, and as most of the picture! were taken in the open, the pleasure seekers who happened to be strollins up Happy Hollow got a good glimps, at the gritty and game white heavy weight Jim stripped down to his ring togs and wore his prized Ameri can sash around his waise
 With the art stunt out of the way Flynn returned to the Arlington, dol ed himself up and, renting a rig, tool two hours drive before dinner. + the evening he attended that alway. spicy vaudeville show at the Princes; theater
