are going to fight Wednesday night
at the Olympic A. c., and they are
going to fight on the level, accord
ing to Weinert. There was some
talk that the bout had been fixed, but
Weinert sets good many minds at
rest by coming out with story ac-
cusing Percy Woodruff of asking
him to frame matters in the fight so
that he and Savage would box to a
good draw. That is how the fake
talk got about, but Weinert not only
comes out and says that Woodruff,
who is managing Savage, asked him
to box draw with Jim, but to make
his side of the case clear he produces
statement. duly signed, setting
forth the accusation. The statement,
just as handed to me this morning
by Weinert Is herewith presented:
Gentlemen:
/, Charley Weinert, wish to an
nounce that in making this match
Percy Woodruff approached me and
asked me to make the bout draw,
that there would be no knockout, just
to go out and get the money.

want to lose the match. l wish to
state that 1 am here tonight to win,
