antics of a couple of COW BOYS
who, from all reports, done some
marring of beautiful scenerv dur

much money, struck a bargain

Freddy Welsh, the lightweight
champion, faces a serious propo-
sition as the winter ring season
opens. He will have to risk his
title against mighty classy
bunch of fighters or pass up more
money than has been offered a
lightweight in many years.
There are nearly ten good light
weights anxious for a chance at
Welsh and most of them are fell
lows who can give Welsh n run
for his money. They are also fei-
lows who can draw good purses in
bouts with Welsh, which means
the champion will have lDt of
money propositions to consider.
If Willie Richie is able to
come back and be anything like
he was before he lost to Welsh. he
will be tough customer for the
title holder. Outside of Richie,
there are Charley White, Joe Man
dot, Johnny Dundee and Kid
Lewis, anyone of whom is q H..
opponent for the champ.
Lewis is liable to prove the
sensation of the winter in light
weight circles. He was good
enough to win the British cham
