THE RI NG
Says the 'Sydney Referee': Frank Glo\er, the boxer who lms come fiom Chicago to Frisco to fight M'Aulitte (they were to have fought on May 21) announced his intention to come over to Australia and light all-comers, making no distinction a? to colour, age, or weijrht. (J lover says all the eabtern sports who gave Jack Burke letters of introduction in Austialia, and sent him of! as a decent veprcsentnti\c, are awaiting his leturn with blubs handy. So disgusted aie all good sports with Burkes action in refusing to meet Jackson that the welcome he will re ceive when he goes back to Ameiica will be of the coldest after his finicking woik in these colonies, whithci he came as the lepresentative fighter of the great American Republic. Out on a man, who, eiarking a huge reputation, refuses to meet our recognised champion, and then will onl}' meet fie second be&t (failing any excuse for not fighting him at all) for an eight rounds spai in public with no more at stake than the gate division.
