Weinert to come to life and agree
to meet KurtZ in Newark or New
York, preferably Newark. G. e.
If writer of the above letter isn't
Kurtz's manager he must surely live
in the same house with the fighter,
for his knowledge of Kurtzs doings
are very suspicious. This jealousy
of Weinert is becoming more evident
every day. Percy Woodruff seems to
know just how to handle those who
are barking at his man. The Kid
may go along and win a lot of bouts,
but it is safe betting that Woodruff
won't allow him to meet either Saw
age, who is too big, or Kurtz, who is
mind on the matter. Kurtz weighs
about the same as most of the So
called welterweights. AS to Weinert
being no good and kurtz being a
champion, that is for the public to
decide. Both Kurtz and Savage have
been in the business for years and
both of them have received more at
tention because of the popularity of
Weinert in the last few weeks than
they ever did in their puglistic lives.
Savage and Kurtz ought to be tickled
at the publicity they are receiving
and they should thank Percy Wood
ruff and Charley Weinert a thousand
times for it.
Gentle reader, Joe Adams wants to
talk to you a few minutes. He wants
to explain few things-cite a few
facts. Let him have the floor, you
say. All right, Joe. let her go!
Orange, Jan. 10. 1914.
J. p. N:
| Wait minute now! A little order,
please. Joe Adams wants to wise the
"Orange Fight Fans" up to a few
facts concerning Sailor White, who
according to their statement, is "the
biggest piece of cheese that ever wore
pair of tights Well, for the sake
of argument, I'll admit that he is
All right. Listen! A year or more age
jim Savage fought Andy Morris al
Browns. Now Morris Is exactly
the same style fighter as Roy
Kenney-slow and horribly awkward
In the first round Savage, the mar
with kick in either hand, hit Andy
as many times as battleship has
sailors Morris welted Savage once
in the second round and put him tt
sleep. Now, get the point: Just three
weeks later Sailor White knocked ou'
Andy Morris In nine rounds at Provi
dence, r. I. A little later the old sal
fought Gunboat Smith in Brooklyn
Did the Gunner knock out White? Ht
did not. White was laughing at hin
when the bell ended the tenth round
And don't forget that Smith hit thu
Sailor. Indeed he did. l saw the ole
sea warrior fight Frank Moran a
Philadelphia last fall, and, believe
me, Moran knew he was in a fight
In my humble opinion White was en-
titled to the honors at the finish.
All right. Listen! Last Tuesda.
night Levinsky gave Porky Flynn
the beating of his life. Flynn knocked
out Savage in nine rounds at Boston
Does anyone think that Morgan tool
Battling Levinshy in place of jim
Savage because he was getting
poorer fighter? Give the Battler'
record the once over and you hav
the answer. And, say. does anyon
think that Savage can lick Levinsky
Dan Morgan will bet $500 that tn
Battling One will beat Savage an,
day in the week. Now, il Leo Flynn
is not working with Morgan VIII,
doesn't he grab the bet? 1t ought t
be pretty soft for Savage nNview o
the fact that Weinert beat LeVinsky
and "Orange Fight Fans" say Vein
ert would be insane" to fight Savage
Or would they be willing to bac
Savage against Levinsky? Don
crowd the aisles, boys, it's agains
the fire rules.
Why do they all want to flgh
Weinert and why all this foolish com
parison of Weinert's record with tina
of Savage? The boy is only a yea
in the business and is still battin
1000. Pretty good, I say. Your Of
friend, JOE ADAMS.
