HAD SIX BOUTS.

During Billy's reign as manager he
lined up six bouts for November and
December, and finally received con-
firmation late Tuesday Of the muchly
talked-of championship date with Pete
Herman. This match was to be staged
New Years day for the championship
of the world
Moore has ducked them all and in
tends to go to London to box the
Frenchman, Ledoux.
lowing affairs: At Memphis, against
Jabez White. $1,000; at st. Louis
against Johnny Regain. $1,000; at Jersey
City, against Joe Lynch, $1,000; at De-
troit, Philadelphia and Baltimore,
against anyone the club would name
for $1,000 each or $500 for the three
starts.
To top it off. Sammy Goldman,
manager of Herman, finally accept
ed the offer of Tortorich for the
New Years date--the only chance
that Moore will get to win the title.
IT would have been good for $4,000
$1,000 for the first jolt, a pos
sible crown, and Immediately there
after the huge purses that only
champion can demand
In cutting away from Hack Moore
will accept instead the London date for
81. 500 to box Ledoux. You may figure
for yourself the difference between
81, 500 and the amount that would have
been derived from the Hack program
Nevertheless, to show what a clean
skate Hack is, he has sent to Moore
all kilograms received from the differ
ent promoters and has suggested that
he attempt to einch these bouts fol
himself.
Then, again, Pal was DESTROYS of TAX
ing his wife with him to London but
was getting but two round trip tickets
With a manager and wife the party
would consequently number three, ne
cessitating the purchase of one addi-
tional ticket. Blooie!
In other words Moore Is attempting
to save as much from the game as
possible and in establishing the soil,
taire system is endeavoring to ge,
| away from the usual 80 per cent expense
| of a pilot
There is no attempt to pan Moore
| for his methods, for the lad is one o.
| the average. He Is above board in al
| his dealings and at all times.
Only two weeks ago he presented MS
| parents with a home that cost hin
over $4,000 cash. Very few boxers ART
doing it this year.
But II Moore intends to succeed ht
| will find it tough road alone.
In commenting upon the matter
| Hack reiterated his original statemen
| that he was not worried nor sore
| the sudden turn of events. He is con
tent to remain in his present position
as promoter of the Southern A. G. ant
| owner and manager of the Haacl
| Printing company.
In case he went to London he woult
| be away from Memphis for two month
| at least, thereby missing an opportunit
to stage at least eight bouts. Add Z
printing business and you will fin
| why he doesn't care rap.
Anyhow laughed Hack, I'm no

it's awful deep this year.
