coaxed hlnwlf Into another iham-e
Mayo was luckier In hi aeeond appear
' Hi matched with a boy not no

nd after nine ear of earnest battllns the
South Philadelphia Italian finally ha placed

that" he Is conldered the bent ISft-pminder
In town.
Path Not nosy One
But before .vounsr Mr Mavo was able to
convince our matchmaker and rnblri fain
e the recoRnltloti he now deserve, Jona
than wW forced to expel lence the trial and
tribulations of almot every boxer, who
flnllly enjoys the fruits of success after ion
suerlnr many barriers When It Is taken
lr.to consideration that Mno has competed
lii but 112 boutn In nine years, It doesn't
take a mathematician to figure that the
toxtr has not been kept very busy
When Mao failed In hl efforts to biHld
tp a pugilistic reputation at home, like
ether boxers, he sought forelRn pasture"".
le boxed In Baltimore. Hoston. Nev. York,
Tleadlnir. Cleveland and several other cities
Johnny even wished himself on to a trip
across the ocean He Invaded France under
th direction of a t'harlev (Jalvln, but In
Tarls. like In the good old If S A., Mayo
(ailed te, Ret muth notice In four months
Johnnj could Ret himself but two bouts.
Klrst he knocked out Christian, a french
man, In Ave rounds, and then lost a leferee's
decision In fifteen to Paul Till, nlso a Parl
slaa Then when thinRs looked hlai k Mayo
decided to return to t'ncle Sam'" domain,
vhere he had friends he could speak to, at
lust
Wis Sub Champion
Disheartened, yet RHine mentalh as he
la phjalcally. .lao stuck to tho nrt of
walloping tho other fellow and taking wal
lops himself He was glad to box anv one.
and for a while would Ret matches only as
a substitute Having onlv few. If anv bail
habits and ahva in Rood physical condi
tion. "Mayo seldom was handicapped b poor
Ihsne when he undertook 'eleventh-hour"
matches. If he dldnt win. It always was
evident at the final gong that the party of
the second part knew ho was In a gruelling
fracas
.Mayo was unable to Ret n good "break"
until the heRinnlng of the present cam
paign. Shortlv before the season opened
he connected himself with Phil Glnssman,
and In twelve bouts Mayo has had under
the Olassman colors seven resulted In
knockouts. Those who went the limit, how
ever, admitted that they were in no pink
ta; Mso l,a fighter, pure and simple, and
his opponents are aware of this fact before
tils' contest terminates.
Now in Limelight
Now Mayo has the spotlight full upon
him; he is about the most-talked-of boxer
In Philadelphia Not that Johnny Is a clever
exponent of the hlt-nnd-get-avvay tjpe like
Btnny Leonard Mavo Is a battler When
the bell rings he starts, and doesn't stop
Until the bell rinRs aRaln .Aggressiveness

the slugging s the thickest
Mayo stalled bis recent knorkout string
n putting to sleep Fighting Bob and re
peatlng the dose to prove the first kavo
was no fluke. To knock out a tough and
tugged battler of the Boh tvpe Is no easv
proposition Then It began to be rumored
that there wns a promising "young" boxer
In Philadelphia Mnvn Is a promising
voting" boxer, and he has been in the
ring for nine i ears'
Hritt Is Included
Then A I Brltt, of Baltimore, came along
and ran Into a Mavo torpedo, Jobnnv fol
lowing with knockouts over Kddle Smith
anil loung Herford Mayo In his last con
test paired off with Battling Sehultx. and
although the Ohloan came here unheralded
he was a corking good boxer Tills Hchultz
proved for five and a half rounds until
.owle' Ker-plunk1 Mavo hit Battling
with a right-hander on the chin mid the
Hoor lose to meet Mr Si hull Hchultr
though, was an experienced boxer, and his
good ring Rcneialshlp enabled him to
weather the round. Bound nix Another
period ot two probablv would have een
Mr Srhultr down In the rosin listening
to the Imaginary tweet-tweeta
And now for the big nolso' This contest
finally resulted In proving how Rreat a bat

His Biggest Purse
That Ma.vo and C'hanev are matched at
the National Club for Saturday night Is
know u by close followers of the game, and
so much Interest Is In the contest that tho
FJeventh and Catharine streets arena no
doubt will be ' turnlnR 'em awav" Mayo
wlil get more money for this frncas than
he ever got, and If Johnny succeeds In
whipping the Baltimore K () king. Mayo
will be In line for purees even bigger
Speaking of Mayo's earnings, ho admits
tecelvlng tbe record purse for little monev
In the hlstorv of pugilism Johnny has le.
celved a.s much as eight cents for a ring
bout and a jvlnd-up at that' Mayo
preped ' for hlfjrlng career In several bouts
hrld In n. classroom of the Beck School,
Sixth and Catharine streets, while a student
at that Institution. '
Ringside Seat, Three Cents
Weekly Sunda matinee bouts used to be
staged at the school by John McGrory. pro.
moter. matchmaker and referee Ringside
spectators were taxed three cents and the
general admission was two cents An
eighty-cent gate represented a capacity
schoolroom, and eight cents was top price
to the stellar performers Mao recalls one
of his "real ' battles with a Butts Daley,
which Johnny won by a clean knockout In
two rounds, and as a result Jlud changed
hands on side bets And Mayo got his
usual eight-cent purse Following this
bout Mojo started a regular career In the
squared elide .and his first few bouts
netted him from f to J7 fiO each.
Now Mao's earnings for one contest
number Into the hundreds of dollars. And
after ea h, bout Jobnnv makes sure that
the fllth lucre reaches home safely to
Mrs Joseph Mayo Yes, girls, .lohnuw Is
