2 Freddie Welsh, the ilghtweight champion of the world, is in our midst. The wearer of the emblem drifted this way a few days ago after quite a sojourn in sunny California, and with him was his wife; daughter, son, Freddy, and a little hairless dog. Freddy was naturally the most uninteresting member of the party, for we know him, but the two little kiddies and the diminutive ki-yi were total strangers and therefore stirred our curiosity. Freddie is anxious to tackle any person that toddles along on two feet providing he receives a fair remuneration for his part of the program. hostilities ae desired to go twenty rounds, with a decision, why Freddie will be willing to go through with a guarantee of which is not so much when you take into consideration that his championship might go flitting away.

Regarding William Ritchie, Freddie still insists that Willie must hand over to Freddie the same sum that Freddie handed Willie in London one bright evening meaning $25,000, to get a fight, and Willie must weigh lo.j pounds about two p. m. Fredtiie feels that he is not asking too much for a championship bout, for hp had to bide his time before he got a winning crack at the crown. Freddie looks better than he did for many months. For nearly ten weeks he basked around on the sands at Venice, played in the Pacific Ocean, lived the pure and simple life, and also did some goat shooting on Catalina Island.

The goat shooting was a thriller, with trusty mounts treading along trails inches wide on the verge of mountainous paths. Freddie shot six or sixty goats, which proves that shooting must be good. The champion weighs 14 2 pounds, and is ready to engage in as many ten-round encounters as ambitious promoters will dish up. The more fights he has the betteroff those two kiddies will be.
