as well any OF the starr. However, IN
his contest with Freddie Hicks he showed

II there are any promoters running loose
about the country who can afford to hang
up nice purse with a juicy gasrantee foI

but the story that he had been offered q
guarantee Of $4,000 for three contests Is
not correct The writer made Gibbons al
offer 70 go to Australia, but not with any
such guarantees stated above It il

manager, EDDIE Reddy, may want 70 visit
kangaroo land before another year hal
passed and he may accept Snowy Baker
offer He would certainly Be as big
sensation IN Australia as Jimmy Clabby, fol
