with only cable reports of the
mems condition to figure the
dope on, Papke looks like the log
ical winner. The Illinois man has
put up some good fights since the
late Stanley Ketchel Topped him
and proved he still packed a
punch when he knocked out

opponent, and if the bout goes the
limit this, quality of youth may
tell. Papke, however, looked to
be in good condition when in Chi
cago a few weeks ago, and has
taken care of his physical condi-
ton when not in training for a
fight.
An effort will be made to match
the winner with Eddie McGoorty,
the fight to take place in this
country, and the winner of this go
to be crowned champion of the
middles. Papke has declared he
will never fight here, but it is
doubtful if he would resist good
