THE 3IOEXING OREGOXIAX, FIIDAT, 3IAY" 21, 1920 17, CALLAHAN GO WITH Li lH CANCELED Boxer's Hand Broken, Man ager Telegraphs Evans. NEW MAN TO BE CHOSEN tlatclmiaker Considering Tellman, Sheppard, Jackson, Cline and Schuman for Boat. Krankie Callahan, Brooklyn light weight, who was slated to meet Benny Leonard, lightweight champion of the world in a ten-round no-decision bout here June 21 has been forced to call off (he match. Bobby Evans, match maker of the Portland boxing com mission, received a telegram from Benny Murphy, Callahan's manager, yesterday that Frankie had . broken his hand and would be unable to , box for over a month or more. This means that Evans Will now have to get busy and line up another opponent for the champion within the next few days. Just who will get a crack at Benny is decidedly a remote question or rather answer at the writing, but the fans can rest assured that it will be a man who figures on paper at least to give the lightweight titleholder some real competition. Several Boxen Considered. Evans is figuring on five or six well known battlers to fill Callahan's vacated shoes. Most prominent among these are Johnny Tillman, the St. Paul mixer; Johnny tiheppard, the English lightweight champion; Willie Jack eon, Irish Patsy Cline, Charley "White and possibly Harry Schuman. The latter, although not a boy rated as first-class in the east because he has never fought in that section of the country, is a classy performer and is rapidly forging his way to the front. Charley White is willing to meet Leonard and so is Tillman. If Evans sets on Tillman for the match he would probably also bring out Billy Mlske to battle on the same card. Miske and Tillman are both managed by Jack Reddy, the St. Paul promoter. Just at present Evans is trying to get In touch with Billy Gibson, Leonard's manager, who is on his way to New York, to notify him that Callahan will be unable to go through. As soon as he manages to reach Gibson he can then go on and sign another opponent. Andre Anderson, the massive Chi cago heavyweight, who is anxious to box In Portland or Milwaukee, will make his first start in the northwest tonight in Seattle when he tackles Toung Hector, the big Seattle mauler. Hector has always held his own with all of his opponents with the excep tion of Fred Fulton and is figured upon to give Anderson a battle. Iick Brenton. the Los Angeles ban tamweight, will meet either Danny Edwards or Harry .Mansell on the same card. Joe Benjamin and Joe Miller will step over the four-round route in San Francisco tonight .at Dreamland rink. Benjamin should not have much trou ble out-boxing Miller, who is a slug eer. Money is coming in basketfula to Johnny Wilson, the new middleweight king. Johnny, like all other fistic stars before him, has taken to the spotlight and is appearing in a show house in Boston. He is getting $1000 a week for showing himself, and next week he has been billed to appear at another Boston vaudeville house. Johnny expects to go to New York aoon to snow the home town folks what thoir new champion really looks like. Jack Brltton had so many fighting: dates piling up on each other that, he was compelled to call off hrs bout with Bran Downey at Columbus on May 24. It was to have been a 1 round bout . and Harlem Eddy Kelly has taken his place. Earl Baird, clever Seattle feather weight, will box ten rounds with boy named De Beau In Minneapolis tonight. They recently fought a ten round mill, Baird being awarded the decision. Frank Kendall, matchmaker of the Milwaukie boxing commission, ahd George Moore, manager of the arena, ate undecided when to stage the next card show that they have called off tho bill scheduled for May 26. The next show probably will hold the boards about June 6. l ' " " 3Q 11 v 1 M lit 1 4 r - pv fci Ktwwi mi hi iimf ran tn i fi 1km i mr mtin i, 1i -r- - 4-gVr tSt , . 1 OREGON JO ATTACK ON Hayward Plans Surprises in Dual Meet.

According to word from San Francisco, Billy. Gib son has telegraphed Coffroth asking for a postponement of the proposed Leonard-Duffy bout from Juna 10 to a date early in July. Gibson says, that Leonard will not ba able to spare the tim from his movie endeavors before June 15. He thinks that is too close to the Port land date to be considered. Naturally Gibson Is the dictator. because he has the champion, and the champion is the attraction. Gibson can afford to be independent because hj has offers ranging from $10,000 to as high as $30,000 for Benny to box varrbus contenders Just as soon as he is ready to go.
