to the better export and domestic

BRETON TO BOX AGAIN
Former WelterwciSht Champion Is Signed by His Manager for a Bout With Bobby Barrett

New York, Dec. 6.-Jack Brittop, former worlds wclterweight cham pion, has decided to re-entef the ring. The veteran welterweight has been signed by his manager, Dan Morgan to engage Bobby Barrett, Philadel- phia's hard hitting weterweight. in an eight round bout at the Arena, for merly the Ice Palace, in Philadelphia. The match will be held on Christmas Day afternoon and will be one of four eight-round matches. This contest will mark the first bout for Britton since he lost his title last month to Mickey Walker on Q decision at the end of IS rounds in Madison Square Garden This defeat, it was thought, would send Britten into retirement after long years of ring service. But the former champion, evidently, is convinced he has found the fountain of youth" and plans another ring mpaign against the country's lead ing weltsrweights who think they can beat him.
