much concern. Before the, advent of
the moving picture business the
average salary .paid stars in stock
companies was from f50 to $200 per

branched out to their present pro-

stars, of course, while the ordinary,
actors are receiving the salary for-

Prom the day Jack Johnson won
the heavyweight championship from
Tómmy Bums; and especially from
the time of Jefferies' defeat at the,
hands of this husky negro, every
nation on the top side of the earth
has been trying to produce a; "White
pe" that could take the starch out
of the negro champion and return the
coveted title to the white race. There
have been many disappointments and
failures. Carl Morris, the Oklahoma
giant from whom so much was ex-
pected, proved a fluke and as fast
as the "new hopes" .could be trottfO
out, some second rate heavy weight
fightef would give them their quietus
in the shape of a healthy steep punch.
One of thc second raters, that lm
been" so instrumental in disposing of
these ,"hopesJ' is a fireman Jim
Flynn. Flynn has been in the game
for eleven years and though he has
never come anywhere near the cham-
pionship he has always proven a
dangerous contender for any man.
For the past year or two he has

true or not. Even though Johnson
"has not dissipated at all since his
last fight, it has hen two years since,
that engagement and it is a matter
of history that it is dangerous for'
any champion to lay off this length
of time.
Jack Johnson is 33 years of age
and J m Flynn is 32. The former has
had two years more experience in
the game than the latter, and their
weights are 215 and 190 pounds re-
spectively. -Flynn has the advantage
of Johnson in many ways and John-
son has the advantage of Flynn in
many others and it is the opinion of
the writer that the white man's hope
lies in, the possibility of . the negro
having gone back or lost some of his
remarkable stamnia. Both have ter-
rific .punches, cun hit as hard as hn
ordinary mule can kick and know
the game
that has ever been discovered.
A lot of talk has gone the rounds
that the coming- fight is a frame-up
and'that it will be for the benefit Of
the moving pictures which will in
turn be of financial benefit to thc
fighters. All danger of this has been
el ¡miniated since ¿bngress has a
bill before that b'ody which, when
passed, will prohibit the transporta-
tion of moving pictures of prize figh-
ts of any natiire from one staie to
