Jim Johnston
Lists 10 Top
Heavyweights
Confines Listing
to Active Boys
Now in the Come
BY FRITZ HOWELL

The No. | monologist of Jacobs
Beach, the retiring and public
ity-Shy James j. Johnston, stop
ped talking today long enough
to jot down his idea of just how
the top 10 active heavyWeightS
should be rated.
A month ago Manager John
ston, affectionatcly known along
Broadway as the boy bandit,
brought Bostons Tony Shucco
out of tWo-year retirement for
comeback which to date has
resulted in one win, no defeats
and no draws.
SO, you get one guess on the
boy Mr.. Johnston drew out OF
his ever-present derby to head
the heaVyWelghts.
Tony Shucco? Right!
HERE GOES
Shucco's selection is not the
only startling thing about Mr..
Johnston's list, reproduced here
with his appended comment:
Tony Shucco of Boston.
Why? He's undefeated since
1888.
2-"Perk' Daniels of Chi
eago. He just whipped Turkey
Thompson, and "Eenie, Minee
and Moe refuse TO meet him.
3-Turkey Thompson of Los
Angeles. Eenie, Minee and Moe
claim he hits too hard for them.
Gus Dorazio of Philadel-
phia, He'll box anyone, but
can't get Eente. Minee or Moe
to fight him,
5-Curtis Sheppard Of Pitts
burgh He keeps on knocking
out guys, which prohibits Eenie,
Minee and Moe from even get
ting close TO him.
6-Joey Maxim of Cleveland.
Eenic, Minee and Moe have
stated he is too fast and won I
stand still long enough for them
to hit him.
buddy Walker Of Column
bus, O. He won 36 straight be
fore he was beaten by Tony
Shucco. Now the Eenle, Minee
and Moe boys won't even talk
to poor Buddy.
8, 9 and l0-The Eenie, Mi
nee and Moe boys, namely Taml
Mauriello, Lee Savold and Joe
Baksi.
WEAK TRIO
Not one Of the last three can
win two fights in row, and the
first one that does is liable to be
put out of the combination.
Before you laugh at this list,
look over the records. Numbers
8, 8 and 10 were hard to place,
SO we wrote their names on
pieces of paper, put 'em IN our
old derby, and had one-eyed
Connolly pick EN- out. We
watched him very closely, and
that's how they got their rat
ings.
Wouldn't it be awful if those
three started one of those Ted
(kid) Lewis Jack Britt o n
series? (Bctween 1915 and 1921
Britton and Lewis fought II
times, Lewis winning three,
Britton four, and the other 10
being draws, no-decisions or ex-
hibitionsD
Look what an old men those
two made Of dumb Dan Morgan,
Brittons manager. They reduced
him from a human calliope to a
mere whisper"
There's little danger any set
of circumstances will reduce Mr..
Johnston TO whisper, although
some of the beach habitues con-
tend it's gross libel to accuse
him of talking all the time.
