mother authority to carry the child out

ordered Patterson to pay So a week for

viii Probably Be Matched
With frankie Burns at
Memphis.

The latest Of the bantams to break
out is Pal Moore Of Memphis. Pal
was married recently and is now
fuller OF scrap than ever.
Moore has a peculiar record. While
not claiming 20 be q champion, he has
a referees decision over Pete Her
man, the present incumbent, as well
as a referees decision overy Johnny
Ertle. the Minnesota star. In addi-
ton to that he gave Johnny Williams,
former champion. one OF his hardest
fights, knocking the Baltimore man
down three OF four times These were
not flBl5e knoclzdowns. either.
frankie Burns. the New Jersey
bantam. whom many believe is one Of
the greatest boxers among the little
fellows has reason TO remember the
Memphis boy. He boxed him three
10-round uo-decision battles and
fought him TO a draw in Il rounds on
a referees decision. Thus Il can be
seen that the somewhat cratic Pal
is a mighty young man when it comes
10 fighting.
