when promoter Curley found out about
the Panhandle and Southwestern Cat
uemen's convention being held here
next week, he advanced the date to
March G, Johnson agreeing to the
change. The champion is now in Cuba
and IL looks impossible for him to get
here in time for the bout on March b

in the date is quite probable but they
are making no definite statement on
that subject
According to the Associated Press,
johnson reached Havana Monday morn
ing with q big party. They secured
quarters at a prominent hotel but a
few minutes later, they were asked to
vacate. Quarters were then found in
q private house but no intimatiOn as
to its location was given out. The
party simply disappeared from sight.
Johnson stated Monday morning that
he intended to proceed at once to Tam
picO and then on to Juarez. When told
he might have some trouble in getting
through Carranza territory in Mexico,
he is said to have cabled Gen Carranza
asking for a safe conduct. but no reply
had been received up TO Monday night
