WILL
GET R|5KO,
CA|NPOLO
BY HYPE IG0E

NEW YORK, Feb. S.wJohnny
Risko's wish is out. He has got
himself hunk on William Null
doom and those of the boxing
commission Of New York who
thought him too puny to fight
Senior Victorio Campolo In Mad
ason Square Garden. Johnny is
going to get his free fling at the
Argentine siant-tn Miami. Hon
est to goodness. 'Tis all too true.
What they wouldn't let New York
have. Bill Carey and Frank Bruen
are carrying to the palm belt.
Risko and campolo will fight ten
sounds on the same card with
Jack Sharkey and Phil Scott and
Tommy Loughran and Pierre
Charles.
Wen, tits better 50. New York
never should have been deprived
of the bout in the first place.
Hohnny has had his ups and
downs, but they have been mostly
AIps, and what he has done to
giants and big shots has been .
@Eime and shame.
He is the busiest gink in the
world when he is right and II he
GG right ct Miami the good Senor's
ariends had better have that big
e1Enmix in shape!
Don't let him get that palm
Hree fever and loo-OUT for sun
burns. Keep his royal elongated
mibS In the shade. Don't let him
drink the Iowland water. Feed
him some of Count Coppa's i'm
ported sparkling aqua fria. Don't
let him stay out after nine and
zee that he don't overfeed on
chilli con carne.
In any Gaze impress upon the
S'wahlyo" that little Johnny Rlsko
Will be In Miami on the twenty
seventh.
I dunno, MuIdoon may have the
laugh Of his life II the big pizan
Eusts our loaf builder on the but
ton and knocks him out. RlSko u
out to get even for what the boys
are pleased to call Bills blunder.
Bill makes so few Of them.
Maybe MulydOOn fS right in
running to RlSk0 with out"
spread and protecting wings.
Maybe he can forsee that Risko
has no earthly business In the
ring with dee Senor. Bill may
laugh at the whole crowd OF US,
but it lii Johnny. as game q
chicken as he is; chaSeS big boy
Capn1y out Of the enclosure, then
the rest Of LIS win laugh.
It is up to RiSko. It gives the
bout q delightful sidelight. Not
that want to see Muldoon hui
INFLATED. Not that I want to see
Eisko blush. I suppose Bill and
John will shake hands after the
thing is over and admit that one
or the other was slightly in error.
Aduldoon WIS trying to do Johnny
o good turn when he, barred the
match. He remembered the God
9rey.Risko affair and, though
Johnny get the decision, Muldoon
and everybody else knew it was an
uneven match physically and did
Johnny no good A-tall.
But you can't drum that into
the heads Of these fighters. A
man like Risko would litter over
the prospects Of fighting-say
Camera, Big Bootsie from the
Gtalian Canal zone.
Still, Tex Rickard didn't lose
any sleep over the fact that
General Phelan, then the license
boss Of the commission, drove the
Dempsey and Tunney bout out o.
good old Gotham town when he
Fefused to give Dempsey his work
ing papers.
can't see Bill Carey fall
ing into a decline over what
the commission might do.
He's got about $4,000, 900 and
his only concern, If you may call
d that, is how to double it in
The quickest time. Great fellow
Is Bill, and I'm sure that Jim,
Bill and John on the boxing
board are going to like him after
awhile If not now. Carey is used
10 driving a bargain or a job,
and that Risko and Campolo
match was one of his especial
pets. I'm not surprised, then,
that he has decided to take it to
Miami.
