TERE'S brand new way Of
boosting up the boxing
game. From Australia
yesterday I received a cablegram
that was remarkable in a good
many ways. The claim was
made that II was signed by 81
fighters and some of their man
ayers and was an appeal to
American boxers to pay homage
to Snowy" Baktr, the Australian
boxing promoter, who is about to
pay his first visit to America, and
to make no arrangements other
than with him when making the
trip to Australia.
THIS cablegram was signed by
such men as Tom McCor-
mich, Eddie McGoorty and his
agent Levins; Johnny Summers,
Ray Bronson, Milburn Saylor,
JEFF Smith and his manager, Al
Lippe; Hughey Michigan, Matt
Wells, Alger, Mccoy, Bradley
Williams, Bubourg, Mullins, Pr
cato, Holberg, Stone, Levy and
Morey.
FILLING in a word here and
there, the cablegram is made
to read in this fashion: Kindly
disseminate the following cable
through the American press: I'm
dersigned boxers and managers
appeal to brother professionals to
as~N. ~ NJ rTr1n
Snowy Baker on his first visit to
America and we assure them that
their interests and ours are in
good hands and in event of visits
to Australia should be solely un-
der his management. We are on
the spot and know the best in
terests of the game and for all
parties concerned. This is spon-
tsneous appreciation for the man
under whose management we are
boxing. Signed, etc, etc"
THAT makes a pretty strong
document OF IT and some
thing that even the resourceful
Mcintosh, who preceded Baker as
the premier boxing promoter OF
Australia, never thought OF. Per-
haps Mcintosh, from all the
stories that have been told, never
could have had as many sigma
lures TO such a cablegram about
himself Evidently Snowy" is

boxer is wont TO designate a man

weight.
