DISCUSS MAY FIGHT

(By United Press Leased Wire. J
SAN FRANCISCO, May A.
Promoter James w. Coffroth and
Jack Costello, manager of Jack
Britton, will meet this afternoon
to decide whether or not the May
boxing show here will feature
Britton and frankie Burns of
Oakland in 20-round battle.
Costello declares that Britton has
already beaten Burns, and there
would be nothing to gain By a re-
turn match. He would prefer to
have his boy camp on the trail
of Champion AID Wolgast, he says.
Coffroth argues that Birtton only
won in a 10 round bout, and
should beat Burns decisively over
the longer distance before tack
ling the champion.
