THCAGO, Sept 20.-Remember
James Edward Britt, of San
Francisco, and Oscar Matthew
Battling Nelson, Of Hegewisch, when
they were two of the greatest light
weights this country ever turned out?
Yes? It was only ten years or so ago
at that. Well. what do you suppose
they did last week? Wen tell you.
Mr.. Britt. actor, did a vaudeville turn
at McVicker's. Mr.. Nelson helped his
sister can fruit in their Hegewisch
kitchen mornings and afternoons In
the evenings he came downtown
to applaud when his once hated ring
rival told n good story from behind
the footlights. They are friends to-
day. even rs they were when punch
ing each other with might and main
in battles that meant fame and for
tune.
Britt dropped in to see us the other
afternoon. James Edward Is CRAVING
about the temples now, but the old
fighting spirit Is still there. His eyes
snapped as he talked over the good
old ring days. He's a smart chap He
has been abroad often, dresses in the
height OF fashion and none who does
not know him takes him for the IN -
nous coast lightweight of a decade
ago. We asked him why he did not
look up his old friend. the Battler. and
James Immediately got busy on the
telephone.
They met in The Examiner Office by
appointment, talked over their four
battles (thev Travelled GO rounds in
all, and posed for some interesting
pictures. They are still a pair of
pretty tough fellows and no doubt
there are lightweights trying to get 10
the front to-day whom either OF them
can trim in fig time.
Old-Tin1e Rivals Converse,
Their conversation while posing for
the camera man was interesting in
deed.
When they shook hands and the
cameras clicked. Britt remarked:
But we've done this same thing
often before for the picture men. but
never with citizens clothes on. Four
times we tried IT, believe. Remem-
Der our last ten-round fight at Los
Angeles, eight years ago when VIC
posed before the scrap? You asked
me to change places with you and
! wondered II you we're trying to get
the goat of a veteran like me
asked you about II and you said you
wanted to get your ear away from
the camera. Then I consented to the
switch"
Yes" said the durable one. but
II won't make any difference to-day
Both ears are on the half sheh now
