JIM FLYNN AND
SAVAGE ARRIVE
HERE MONDAY
Bv Left Hook.

TACK CURLEY, manager Of Jim
Flynn, has wired that he and
- Flynn will arrive in Atlanta Mon
day. Dan Morgan. manager OF Jim
Savage, had previously wired that he
and his man would be here either
Sunday or Monday. So the Queens
berry festivities Of the city should
brighten up materially within the
next few days.
Savage and Flynn are matched TO
battle ten rounds at the Auditorium
Armory.
Dan Morgan, in behalf OF Savage
has laid claim TO the heavyweight
championship OF the world. In his
formal statement Morgan says:
Savage has as much right to the
title as any of the white hopes.
consider him the best man in the lot
4 believe he can whip any Of them,
now that McCarty is out OF the way
We are willing to meet any Of them,
and intend to begin by polishing of
Flynn on the night OF June Is in At
lanta."
Morgan is wild with enthusiasm
over the outlook The sudden turn OF
affairs that gave his man a cham
pionship look-in pleased him night
down to the ground. He saw the OPP
portunity and he is on on a campaign
Of activity that will give Jim Savage
more scraps in the next few months
than he ever had before in his life.
II may be that Morgan's plans may
get an awful Jolt right here in At
lanta. There is not any doubt
that. until a few weeks ago, he be-
lieved that his man could trim Jim
FLYNN with all ease Then came jim s
great battle with Jim Coffey. and that
was something else again Flynn
Instead Of being on the down slant
as Morgan hoped, proved to be as
good as ever in his career. But after
that was learned it was too late to
back out, for the match between Saw
age and Flynn was made.
Neither of the men wants to meet
the other now. Yet each knows that
he must go into IL to win or TO be
knocked out There is no middle
ground now. A draw decision would
do neither Of them any good. They
must win. A victory, with the heavy
weight situation as IL now is, means
money to them, way up in the tens Of
! thousands.
The odd way affairs have lined
themselves has played into the hands
Of the local promoters. Il has made
the battle next Friday night one OF
the BIG contests Of the year. The
winner is almost sure within the year
/ 70 grab off the heavyweight cham
I ntouship of the world.
