Vancouver Battle on Labor Day to Decide Supremacy. ( Vancouver, B. C, Aug. 18.

"I want the general public to know .fut if I win this title 1 am goms f; defend It every time a wprtny oppen cnt conies into view," declared Welsh. "First of all ' Packy McFarland can have his chance. I have already box ed him CD rounds, being the only lifc-hl-weight that has ever dared tackle Mc Farland. I can eajrilv make the 133 ringsid?, the American scale of weight, but if McFarland can do 135 at :00 o'clock, he can have the first chance at the title.'' bonbon every hol.." i am ready to lc.rirtd the title bef' :e t' club offering the highest price, and al low the genertil jjtblic to select mv' )' ponent." ' "I well realize that there has been no realljt popular lightweight cham pion since the days of Battling Nelson. I want to be as popular as Bat was, and the only way to'gain that popular-'-itw is to keep boxing and defending the title." Harry Pollock, manager of Welsh, is just as certain that his charge will be the next champion, and along this line is manning out the campaign. Im- , mediately after the battle, in the event of Welsh winning, Pollock and Welsh will start for England and Wales, tak- ing a moving film of the bout with I them. They will exhibit in the Brit I ish isles, and en return to New York, where Pollock has practically ac cepted an offer for'a Thanksgiving day match with McFarland, provided the latter shows any inclination to male 185 pounds at 6 o'clock. Welsh's next bout will be Christmas day, on the coast, and every holiday until he re tires or is defeated, will see the Brit on in the ring against the best of his opponents. ' CALL FOR BIDS..
