another bout. Kline, however, has

Kline complained of his treatment
in his other fight with CLANCY and
it is presumed he knows what he is
doing this time and that he is going
into the contest with his eyes wide
open. If he isn't, 1t is his own fault.
He has had a good lesson. This time
| it is to be hoped the gloves will be
of regulation size, Kline's end of the

Knockout and that decision will be
rendered Kline admits that CLANCY
is a good boy. but Patsy feels as II
he should beat him. Down in Bal.
timore the opinion is general that
CLANCY will win on points. Maybe he
will.

Charley Weinert won't fight Jim
Savage. He has said so. Weinert de-
clares that he isn't going to fight any
more for a while in this country. He
expects to go to Australia, but this
trip, I understand, is not 50 sure. The
appointment made by Sam Fitzpat-
rick to meet Weinert in this city
wasn't kept and 1t looks as If the
proposition has fallen through. That
is too bad, for a long trip to the An
tipodes might do Weinert a lot of
good. At the very worst he could
come back here with a fund of good
stories, and he might pick up a dollar
or two in the bargain. But the trip
is off, for a time at least. In the
meantime Weinert is sticking to his
butcher shop and Savage is waiting
for Charley to cut his finger so that
he will quit the business and turn his
attention to the prize ring, in which
case, Savage says, he will keep right
after Weinert and force him into a
match.

This country is entirely too small

He would like to go to Australia,

to little old Jersey and talk about
his triumphs That is a beautiful
picture to paint, but fighters who

to this country with hardly a sol

fighting over there. Jeff Smith, tht
Bayonne boy, is over there now, and
