New Orleans.
"Ertel was offered and refused
81 900 to box Herman twelve rounds
to decision al New Bedford, Mass.
Ertel boxed there last week and re-
ceived draw with Al Shubert. Now
Herman is the only boy in the game
who holds a decision over Shubert,
so that speaks very we'll, consider
ing that Ertel was lucky TO get
draw with Al.
THE fans will not stand for Ertel
boxing any more suckers. and the
best proof OF that is he has never
been a real good boXoffice attraction
since camping here. but with Herman
as an opponent they would pack them
in. ! do not have 10 pick suckers
for Herman. If Ertel will not box
him will let the club pick any tough
fellow that Ertel will not box and
show the fans that Herman j. all

Here are few Of the boys that
Herman holds decisions over: Eddie

In his boxing Moran has been using
