How about the Battle Of the Mag
nificent Mastodonsf
BY this We mean the placing into
the same ring simultaneously Of those
two 0argantuan Gents, Victoria.
Campolo. the Big Horse or the Ar
genttne. and the Powerful Panatela.
Primo Sarnera.
Providing there b . ring biz
enough 70 hold these two ~skyscrapers.
It looks like IN opportunity that T. T.
Barnum never would have missed. or
Tex Richard. either. for that matter.
Here you have two Of the biggest
behemoths In captivity. Camera,
who Is getting 5000 . week Just 20

portions, Is coming TO this country
sooner Or later. why not match him
with IN opponent he AN findf He
surely would not have 70 stoop to

formed. he does 800 without his over
coat. His appetite d said 70 BE- vastly
better than even one Of Jack Curley's
pachyderms, and you know Jack
nearly went broke feeding pachy-
derms, on his farm near New York
city.
Victoria Is not 50 bio. He only
weights IA and hts elevation Is 8
feet 0h inches. There Is Just q
chance that both OF these blokes
could be brought into the same neigh
bofhood. Out Of sheer curiosity,
plenty Of people would pay to see
such dinosaurs wave their arms at
one another.
Victories first sally into American
rings was just 90 30. He mauled Tom
aeeney In m impressive way but
when they put him in there with
rhoxy Phil Scott. the London land
lord, Phil jumped up and smacked
him . couple Of times and was given
the decision. Camp0lo's manager,
Gus Leneye, had . passion indeed
that only ! few dollars would b left
after every fight for Victoria. This
Wa not % good. 90 voctorio freighted
himself back TO the Argentine.
Now, however. Gus has been bought
out q Oampodo's treasurer. In the
deal By which Madison Square
Garden recently gained control Of the
existing heavyweiehts. II u reported
that Humbert Fugaxy. who yielded up
to tho Garden that Hurtful HAM
burger, Max echmeling. and others he
had signed On the dotted line. viii
become Victories manager. And
Campolo hos agreed to appear In four
bouts Ct tho Garden.
One Of these four bouts might well
b with the Panatela. This would be
boxing In : big way, with : quarter
ton Of assorted beet In the arena.
There soemS 70 be no objection from
I financial standpoint, either. II
appears they draw ct the Garden &C.
cerding to their size. to Judge by the
recent pecuniary failure Of the fly
weights. At that rate, this should b
several sellouts. Nobody around the
Garden hates sellouts.
