JIMMY WILDE MAY
MAKE WORLD TOUR
Little British Bantam Could Pick Up
100000 by Invading
Foreign Lands.

There Is strong possibility OF
Jimmy Wilde, flyweight champion
OF England. coming 10 this country
next fall, even should Pal Moore go
across and engage him IN n 20-round
contest nt the National Sporting
club before that time. Wilde has
been thinking seriously. or rather
his manager has, about making a
tour ~ the states and then going
over TO Australia for = few battles,
returning home by way OF India.
Jack Munro, tho new manager OF
The stadium In sydney, has cabled
an offcrepf 10000 and expenses for
one fight in Australia, which means
that he would give him ut least
three contests netting tho little
champion about $4,000. He could
also pick up another 10000 in
thcater.work
The Cream city Athletic club Of
Nlwaukcc has made AN offer OF
1000 to Wilde for n ten-round bout
and there are half dozen others he
could get In the states, which would
net him over $4,000 easily, so that
HE entire trip could he made ccr-
Rlnty for SIS 900 or bettor-not bad
for u flyweight uueholderl
Jimmy IA in the army and will
hh'u 10 get petHuhHlnn 10 make
tour OF that kind, but the chances
are he will be mustered out before
fall. lie also has some big matches
IN sight In London with Charlie l,e-
douN and Crldui. two French stars.
aud tho Pal Moore match, which will
bring him In over $4,000 with
good health and fair break in tho
fortunes OF the ring. the little man
should clean up 100000 during the
next year. which Is surely going
some for ll2 FOUNDER
Il is seldom that the little fellows
have had chance such AS Wilde
faces for picking up big money.
George Dixon and TORY McGovcrn
made big money when they were
champions but they were in the
'oa' a'hcrwclght class when they got
into the really big coin.
