The wire was from the Y. NJ. c. A.,

to malRutritiOn.
In this letter SIS Hampstead said:
''You see, I hate to admit it the worst
way hut this forsaken place has all
but finished me. My doctor has told
me that if l expect to survive the win
ter I had better dust out of here-and
the sooner, the quicker. Now. nat
urally, one has personal reasons for
wishing to survive the winter; so l
broke down and confessed myself a
quitter of the deepest dye. In some
ways I am sorry to leave, but still 1
am beginning to want to get back. l
want to get to the place where the sun
shines once in Il while at least and
where you are not in a furry of fear
that it's going to disappear if you leave
off worrying about il for a second. 1
want tc get back to the place where
l don't have to eat black bread. with
no butter. no eggs. no steaks, no milk.
no coffee The fact is I am famished,
absolutely famished for something de-
cent to eat"
c. E Hampstead will meet his SIS
ter in New York. Monday.

his class around Amboy was not
enough class to warrant his appear

was really his only worthy opponent
but for some reason had refused to
meet Charlie, hence the moving van
to the City of Churches.
Goodman4s last appearance before
the boxing public was made during
the Lewis-Britton affair in Newark.
when he squared off in the semi
finals with Smiling Richie, who Is
known as Newark's Tiger" The
Tigers weight was all that saved him
from going west.
Goodman does not claim to be the
cleverest boxer in these neck of the

enough that Charlie is a hard hitter
and a fast 120 FOUNDER.

Goodman is hot on Potty's trail

1t is pure and simple that he must
