BOXING RESULTS

Al Lippe is loose again. Since his champ, Frankie Brown, earned the newspaper verdict over Johnny Kill bane, the featherweigft champion, Al has been manufacturing all sorts of story regarding Johnny's evasive tactics His latest is that Kilbane has turned down an offer of S7,50O made by Sam Harris of Baltim ore and s1,5o0 by George Engle of Phil adelphia- Neither yarn is being taken seriously.
 A friend who Is attending the races at Havre, Md, today dropped us letter giving some interesting dope on the Johnny ErtIe- Frankie Daily fight in Baltimore last Friday night. Ac- cording to our informant the bout attracted a trifIe under S3,400 of which sum ErtIe received 27 1-2 per cent. or $935. Daly grabbed $500.
 Spectators are reapfng a harvest with tickets for the Benny Leonard Willie Ritchie fight at the Sports mems A. c. in Newark next Monday night, according to Hughie LeBlang. who is one of Broadway's leading ticket agents Hughie in a letter to the 6U1LOT IOOdy Sdiu LGdL choice $1O seats are going like hot cakes at $2O each.
 Chances are that Chic Brown of New Haven will not be able to box again for at least another month if then. His illness will cost him several bouts for a local and Derby prom oter wanted his services. Some of Browns friends say that the New Havener is prepared, but this state ment has met with denial from Dick Cur1ey, his manager.
 Fred Fulton of Rochester, Minn., has filed a voluntary petition in bank ruptcy in that city, according to in- formation contained in news des- patches just received here. Fred, ac- cording to this dope, hasn't got Q cent. He has made many vain efforts to return to the ring, but his flake confession has made him unpopular throughout the country and match makers have been helpless to aid him.
