Bic HANDICAP
Although a Wonderful Ringman,
Charlie Appears Too Light

In some ways, he IS paralleling the
career of Packey Mcfarland. whom
he has replaced as Chicagos leading
lightweight. When Packey was first
coming IN, it used to be said:
Mcfarland would be champion il
he only had a few more pounds"
This seems funny, now that Packey

MANAGER PAYS
WEEKLY SALARY
Instead of Giving Percentage Of
Purse, James White Signs
Boxers to Contracts.
BY T. S. Andrews.

COME OF the boxing promoters are
y beginning to take a lesson from
the theatrical syndicate and il
VIII not be surprising in the near fu-
ture to hear Of some Of the prominent
boxers being under contract to Ger
tain managers or promoters at a stip-
ted salary; in fact, this seems TO
be the latest thing in the boxing
game that is, to have the boxers
work upon a salary and not for a
purse or percentage.
AT the present time this applies %
England, although there are a couple
Of cases OF this kind in the East. The
man TO start the ball rolling in Tins
line is James White, financier Of Lon
don, who tried to pull off the Wells
Johnson contest three years ago, but,
owing to the sentiment against he
British champion meeting colored
man, the bout was called Oft
Il is under God that White has Sc
cured some OF the best British boxers
under a curious contract He pays
them salaries every week and pro-
vides any side bet that may be re-
quired. All purse money belongs to
him and the boys must box anyone
he fixes matches with
1T is said that Bomhardier Wells
gets SIPS week and that Sid
smith, the eN hSweight champions gets
$50 week; While Bill Bcynon WAC
figured As champion FOR short
time, draws $50 week There are
other boxers whom White has secured
control Of but nothing mas been said
as TO what salaries they are receiy-
ing
This story may be denied. but. lust
the same, one OF the contracts was
seen by a very close friend of the
writer and he also assures me that
the Wells contract is fact, Under
the agreement, none Of the boxers
can get out without giving six
months notice. but White can dis
miss them or cancel the agreement at
any time that lie desires.
This may cause little stir i'm hos
ing circles, but the story is based ON
facts and II will not be surprising IL
the same conditions are brought
about in the States before a great
while IL the stars continue TO demand
the eNorbitant figures tina they have
in the past.
