Everybody concerned in the promotion of Mrs.

connections, white and Negro. of the proposed fight
and the active promoters thoroughly appreciate the
temper of Harlem at this writing. All prize fight
men know. too, that the late Tex Richard pro-
duced a heavyweight championship fight between a
white man and a Negro in a populOus center and
firmly avoided producing any such championship
fight after the JohnSon-Je fight of 1910 which
took place in Reno New, but caused race riots in
New York and Chicago.

Just Another Racket

MOT only is Camera a much bigger than
' Louis, fact which would be likely to arouse
the resentment of the Harlem Negroes whatever the
outcome, but his ring manners are such that the Ne
groes in the audience and in the streets might give
expression to a feeling that he had done their
wrong.
Primo likes to dump his weight all a smaller
man. bull him around with his superior size and
tramp the little mans toes with his huge feet
to nail him to the floor while he cocks and fires his
punches.
1t is worth considering whether a purse of
S38 000 the amount which Mrs. Hearsts milk funo
derived from last years fight between Camera and
Max Baer. or twice that much, would be worth the
risk of a between the races starting in the
fines of a ball park at night
AS to the runner-uptcy or. the championship it
self, it makes difference what of which
holds either the prize fight business is a sub
division Of the underworld and a racket in itself.

Of course. there may be another

late Frank Lockhart roared in
from the West, landed a job at
the last minute and ran away
from the field. The very next

boy from Purdue University, came
unheralded to the lists and con-
quered.
One Of the host of dirt track
drivers who have swarmed in
from all directions with sensa-

or more who are hotter than

talking about, agree that the l04865
mile an hour record tackled up by
Champion Cummings last year, is
bound to go by the boards barr

would slow the race for several

Yes, they all agree that the
speed will be faster. But they

question-whose will be fastest?
