JUDGED by the amount of

lack of adequate ballyhooing.

much attention to deploring the
sad state of the heavyweight
situation; to doubling there
would be anything attractive in
a clash between the GarrulouS

queathed by the late Tex

the point where no red ink will
appear in the final balance and
the fact that the flght-writing
fraternity is so we'll represented
may be accounted for by the
salubriousneSS of the climate at
Miami Beach compared with
that of the North.
The almost total absence OF any
representations on the outcome OF
the scuffle is more difficult to &C
count for, however. AS a rule an
expert never needs any urging to
indulge in his favorite business or
diversion--take your ch0ice-yet 1t
is a fact that there has been a
dearth of exporting in this regard
that assumes the proportions OF a
famine.
Being in no sense an expert and
hdrboring no aspirations to De
clnssed as such, this reporter is not
onlu poWerleSs to relieUe the Situd-

an explanation for this remarkable
state OF affairs.
OF course, it might be that none
of the fingwise correspondents has
any well defined ideas on the sub
iect of whether Stribling or Shar-
key will be the winner and is re-
framing from predictions for that
reason.
This explanation would seem to
be too simple for acceptance, how
ever, and from lack of precedent
safely may be ignored.

Sharkey, we are informed, while
clever and fast hitter, lacks a
finishing punch against courageous
opponent, while Stribling, for all his
fine physique, hard jaw and intel
