JOB COME-BACK again is em Los Angeles.—Jack Johnson, the only negro world's heavyweight champion, will have to stag' his in cipient ring "come-back” somewhere outside of California. That was definitely decided by the California State Boxing commission af its last monthly meeting here. Following a 15-round decision over Pat Lester, Arizona heavyweight, in the Nogales, Mexico, bull pen, John son. found himself on the verge of physical, pugilistic and, incidentally, financial rehabilitation. In the fight with Lester, Johnson showed enough of his old time sikll and cunning to raise the hue and cry. He not only endured fifteen rounds, but he also took the decision, which is extremely commendable under a passionate Mexican sun at the intriguing age of 48. And ;ust to make the yodel more resonant. Lester, shortly thereafter, showed he wasn’t che worst fighter in Tucson, Ariz., by scoring <5-round technical knockout over Tony 1 'uente, the Mexican heavy weight. Immediately after the Nogale, in cident, several Southern California promoters made application for per mits to have Johnson demonstrate hi. venerable wares in Los Angeles. Forced to face the is=ue by these ap plicants, the State Boxing commis sion announced that Johnson was non-persona grata or even worse thru that in California. "The action of the commission,” Captain ,Seth P. Strelinger, the chair man, explained, “was prompted by the conviction that Johnson has never done the boxing game any lasting ; good and he’s too old now to learn : how.” W nilt: lit; uiuii t say ou wut juuu, u., , »ntair left a palpitating inference j that Johnson’s effect on the 'boxing game, in fact, had been just the op- . i osite. “He’s 48 now”, Strelinger added, “so we thought we’d let him tome-j back some place else.’ Johnson has been an important : character in the history of California 1 boxing. He nearly won his heavy- j weight title in California. Tex Rick ard and Jack Gleason, the promoters, planned to stage the Jeffries-John son fight in San Francisco or its en virons. Jeffries had already estab lished a nearby trainirg camp when j the State interfered. The fight was then transferred to Reno, just across the state line. One of Johnsons greatest fights, and one of the fights that has help ed make ring tradition, was “tasp-l :<■ Colma, near San Francisco. This fight was the classic encounter between ( Stanley Ketchel, “the Michigan As- J sassin,” and the brunette here John son won on a knockout in the twelfth , round. Another stirring battle fought by Johnson in this State was his ten round no-decision affair with A1 Kauffman at San Francisco. .Tohn ,son was generally conceded to have had the edge. The veteran colored boxer is now training for a fight in Tia Juana the Fourth of July against an opponent whose name will soon he announced, j The matinee contest will dedicate j the new Tia Juana arena winch is j now under construction. Tw enty j thousand holiday patrons will be ac commodated.
