BY he NRY L. FARRELL
Omitted Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK, March 13-Joe
Lynch hash t done much since he
won the btntamweight champion
ship the second time, with the ex-
ception of losing nearly all the
friends and followers he ever had.
Joe apparently has the idea that
the crown was entrusted to him to
be kept in good hands and that he
has the only good hands in the di-
vision. He has even gone SO far
in picking set.ups that he will not
fight even first class set-up and
hasdescended to the place where
his victims are picked almost from
the amateur ranks.
In following the habit of holding
the title at all costs, Lynch should
remember that he never would have
won the title if Johnny Buff had
been unwilling to take Il chance.
Buff did more than take a chance.
He fought Lynch when he was in
such physical condition that he
didn t have one chance in hun
dred to win but was game enough
to defend his title against a first
class opponent.
