Big Andre Anderson gets a good op-
portunity TO bolt into the big time on
November II, when he peeks across Il
set OF five ouncers at Fred Fulton, the
Rochester giant. at Milwaukee.
Andre gave the fans a considerable
eyeful when he stopped Jim Johnson
here, especially when James was not
in the habit Of missing the tenth round.
Anderson has a good chance to stop
Fulton, despite the fact that the big
u l. o..
neighbor's children out in one, two.
three order Of late. Both Of them some
day may be pitted against Jess willard.
Newcomers and young, who knows but
that the future champ may be lurking
in either Of their training camps.
Late some time Monday night the
natives will have the final line on Jim
Corbett's big Tom Cowler. for earlier
in the evening Thomas will endeavor TO
blast the championship hopes Of Dan
Morgan and, particularly, little Bat
Ting Levinsky.
Tom has done nothing In the way Of
working at his chosen profession since
the night he put on third speed and
battered poor Jack liemple into state
Of non compus Memphis Tennessee.
That night Cowler looked the best
big thing seen around the village In
some time. He had everything and he
made use Of his possessions in man
ner that made Jim Corbct faint dead
away when he got the news In long
distance telephone booth down at Al
lnntic City.
In Levinsky. Tom is going to meet
n mast master in the business Of giant
killing. The little Philadelphia fighter
= never happier than when tormenting

bIs ra,ping attack. Tho parsmect at
the Olympic Club In Harlem.
