The local sporting fraternity has been kept guessing as to what will be Jim Judge's plans If ho wins Monday nlght'3 20-round boxing contest with Frank Bartlcy, of Blnghamton. The speculation has been hlghtened by the challenge to the world In Judge's bo half "by his manager, Jack Skclly, who Is tho matchmnker for tho American Sporting club. The challenge wns Is sued through the New York papers and placed the weight limit at 140 pounds. One conclusion has been reached In fact. Skelly makes no concealment of the fact that the bout with Bartley will be Judge's final test before going agnlnst the real big game of tho tlstlo world. But who the Scrantonlan's opponent or opponents mo to be Is something that hasn't been ascertained and something that Skelly doesn't care to talk about. The latter's silence can be partly explained, however, on tho fact that Juge's victory over Bartley. the recognized champion welterweight ot western and central New York, bar ring Ryan, Is by no means assured. The engaging of Sam Austin for re feree Is further evidence- of the Im portance placed upon tho approaching content. There Is some good reason In having for referee tho man who re fereed the McCoy-Crccdon battle nnd who Is one of tho best known ring officials' In the world. Aside from the good reason fur engaving Austin, what eer it may be, there Is no gainsaying the credit due Skelly nnd tho Ameri can club for providing so great an au thority and probably at a big ex pense.
