Johnny Dundee, who will leave for
Arkansas on Saturday to get himself
into condition for an active winter
campaign, says that he hopes for
great things from the manager he
has just signed, Jimmy Johnston.
II have begun to realize that a
boxer, no matter If he has a head,
cannot fight and manage himself at
the same time. Jimmy has a two
year contract and maybe at the end
I'll be begging him to sign for az
long as I'm in the game. It's up to
him, / guess. Meantime, at Hot
Springs I'll work hard and when I
come back here I'll be ready to give
my best against the best that any
body's got.''
Just how much Johnston, who has
wide experience in the boxing game,
is going to receive from Dundee is a
secret. Those who know the Scotch
wop are betting II isn't fifty-fifty.
Yet 1T ought to be. If Johnston can
