A large crowd gathered to witness the first work out of the middle-weight, and although he did no boxing he was reported as looking to be In good condition and also working as If he had been In training right along. The reason for eliminating the line of give and take with the gloves was oc twelve rounds of boxing with bis sparring partners add Haberdasher Sam Berger.

He sparred five rounds apiece with George Murry and Walter Stanton, and two with big necktie man. In Murry and Stanton, Thamosa has secured boxers whose worth to a training fighter is invaluable.

This is a fine chance for some of the youngsters to find out Just how they stand as a boxer, and if taey have the required qualifications to make champions. It is not every day that novices are given a chance to spar with a champion, and for that reason It would be wise for some of the coming young "fighters to try their hand on the champion. Of.

SUSTAINS STATEMENT. Yesterday afternoon Terry Mustaine was reached on the telephone at Croll's and announced that he was in fine shape for his contest with Joe Willis that Billy Roach is to stage at the Colrna pavilion next Saturday night. Terry also announced in the following manner that he would go after bigegr game if successful: "If I am successful in winning from Willis 4 shall go after Ketchel.

Kaufman, or any heavy weigh fighter that the promoters can secure and to prove that I have confidence in my ability to win I Will bet my own money and split the purse to suit to fighter picked. I have known Ketchel since our preliminary days in Montana and feel that I have a good chance with him, and as for Kaufman, I Big Harness Meet To Open Tomorrow ing the match-makers will tab them and In the future It may lead to obtaining matches. It was throug'i boxing with Terry Mc-Govern when that party was known as "Terrible Terry" that Jimmy Britt, then amateur champion, found that he had the right material to make a fighter. He boxed three rounds with Terry at S-iee-han's training quarters, and although both men received only a Blight nose bleed, the California fighter came away from the camp impressed with the Idea that he cpuld beat the terror from New York. From then on it was only a step to.
