Chance for LanGfOrd.
Having shouted to the winds that
the bars are down so far as he is con-
cerned, Pelkey viii scarcely be al
lowed to cOnfine himself to half way
emeasures. Having signified a willing
ness to meet Jack Johnson, he viii
have to extend similar cOUrtesies to
one Samuel LangfOrd-
Arthur might get around the dilemma
by announcing that LanGfOrd is ineli-
gible on the score that he is not easy

prOtege would humiliate himself
thusly-
No sir. If the Johnson elkey fight
took place and Pelkey came out on top,
LangfOrd would be ready with his de-
raand for a match and the public would
stand behind him. And even il moth
ing comes Of the JOhnsOn-Pelkey pro-
DOsitiOn-and TO be truthful. L do not
think anything will come Of it-Pel-
key has left himself wide open so far
as a challenge from LangfOrd is con-
cerned- Since he was willing to box
one negro he cannot very well refuse
to box another.

days to talk over matches for the com

that his plans embrace busy winter

a-re n
d0ubtedly the biggest success from
scientific and financial points of view
that could possibly be staged.
However, II a hitch should arise over

hinder the bout. there are one or two
other good lightWeishts in local stables

spirited arguments over the 20 round

would make an ideal opponent for the
