Strange Decision.
I could scarcely believe this, but
7 on inquiry I learned that it was ao. While Harvey was keener than ever on facing Walker, his mana- 29 iger, I discovered, wanted the 6match to take place in England, and he felt sure that some promo ter would arise to make this pos 12 Bible.
Thus, if that contract ever ar rives from New York it is possible 137 that it will be returned minus
Harvey's signature.

Frankly, I am at a loss to under stand the attitude of British ́chám- pions towards these world's titles, which mean so much in prestige and money.
In the old days English boxera fought without payment of any sort, so that they might have an opportunity of winning a cham. pionship. They realised that, a title was a commercial asset, and that once at the top there was a fortune to be made,
