ardent boxing enthusiast, as well as
an admirer of eastern boxers, l Wouia
like to say few words IN praise OF
frankie Conway. Frankie Ioughe
here on. two occasions. lie maue nis
debut in preliminary bout scneauled
for four rounds, meeting a San fran
cisco youth. Conway outclassed MS
opponent in such decisive FASHION
that the bout was stopped before the
/ limit. He displayed considerable cieV-
erness and was matched with FRANKIE
Malone. the Olympic Club idol. Con-
wav boxed Malone to a draw and was
offered several other matches, but
left for the East.
Young Saylor, recent ARRIVAL from
Australia, who boxed Joe Shugrue
there twice, was introduced at the
boxing show here last night. He re-
ceived a big ovation, as did Jeff Smith,
OF Bayonne, N. j., several weeks ago.
/ don't hear a word about Charley
Weinert or Jim Savage out here, but
have noticed articles written about
them in your column. Harry Wells,
the New Orleans negro, has boxed
here three times and has won all his
bouts |, as we'll as several other fans
here, believe he will be a champion
some day. He met Charley Miller in
his last bout and knocked Miller out
in a round. Weinert and Savage had
better watch out for him when he
goes east. Wells enjoys the game
more than demanding big purses.
l still remain an admirer of Eastern
fighters, as well as those from Aus
tralia and Frisco, who box clearly.

BIKE FAN.
Getting beating is not so bad, but
when your end of the purse Is held
up, why. that is different. Here's
tale of woe from Stamford, Conn. !:
j. P. NJ:
Just a line to let you know that
the chief of police of Stamford. Conn.,.
stopped the bout between Dave
c'Red'o Mack, of Newark. and
Tommy Shea, of New Haven, Conn.
at Stamford on Wednesday night.
The bout was halted in the second
round. While the contest lasted Mack
had the better of it. He had the
advantage in the first session and
was leading in the second when the
chief OF police, jumped into the ring
and put an end to further action.
The chief stated that the bout was
too rough" In my opinion. how
ever, the chief saved the promoter of
the show from paying the boxers.
Furthermore. neither Mack nor Shea
was given any money for their work
asked the chief of police why he
stopped the bout, and he replied that
ne did not want prize-fighting in his
town. / also overheard a converse
ton between the promoter and an
other person. in which the club man
ager said he could not make boxing
pay in Stamford and that he was not
going to give Mack and Shea a cent.
Mack, however. after lengthy talk
with the chief. finally secured a
paltry Sc for expenses to get back to
Newark, Mack is, willing to meet
Shea at any place and az any time
for side wager of 500.
