YOHNNY DUNDEE wants to

the lightweight title. His chance of
actusily getting welsh into q ring

means in the class Of Willie Richie
and two or three other iightweights
In this country. Welsh and Dundee
were matched to boz ten rounds at
Timer Park q little while before
Welsh went to England to meet
Ritchis there. The crowd was slim
and the gate receipts not up to the
sum expected. and the promoters Of
fsred 70 give the fighters tho entire
gate and add a few hundred dollars
out Of their own pockets rather than
disappoint the spectators. Dundee
might have gone on. but Welsh
would not box when he learned
that the promoters wanted to
cut tho purse. Which shows
that Welsh wasn't very anx-
tous to risk lighting Dundee rust he
fore getting his chance at the title.
Caution at that time was the proper
thing. 81 course. But will Freddy be
