Champion Heavyweight
In Seward Over Sunday
Eager for action and in the very
pink of condition, Fred Cullen, accom
panied by his wife stepped from the
gangplank of the steamship North
western Sunday. Mr. Cullen is en
route to Anchorage to appear in the
B. P. O. E. smoker to be given soon.
He is matched with Smiling Davis,
the pride of Anchorage, better known
as ‘‘The Fighting Switchman,” for the
heavyweight championship of Alaska.
No suitable quarters could be found
in ttown for training yesterday so Mr.
Cullen donned his road togs and
sprinted to Mile 3 1-2. He now weighs
in at 170 pounds. Mr. Cullen has been j
in active training in Los Angeles, at J
Jack Dempsey’s new million dollar j
gymnasium at 6th and Spring street.
His last bout was with Nick Newman,
at Hollywood, which was won by a
knockout in the third round.
Cullen has been active around Hoi- |
lywood and has been engaged more or i
less in moving picttures doing the
doubling for Reginald Denny in “The
Leather Pushers.” a serial picture seen
quite frequently in Seward, at the
Liberty theatre.
Mr. Cullen, who is about 26 years j
of age has engaged in about 60 bouts,
starting his ring career in Los Ange
les. He was with Jess Willard as a
training partner for a year and a half
when Willard tried to regain the hea
vyweight crown. The Cullens were
married in Los Angeles four months
ago and motored from Los Angeles to
Seattle in their Cadillac car. Mrs. Cul
len is enthusiastic over Alaska, this
being her first trip here. Mr. Cullen
admits that he has found an ideal
"manager.”
Mr. Cullen is a member of B. P. O.
E. No. 92 of Seattle. His opponent,
Davies, is a member of the Anchorage
lodge. Mr. Cullen brought his train
ing equipment with him and a crash
ing of leather will be heard at An
chorage within a few hours after the
train arrives there.
Gus Gelles, Cullen’s manager, is in
Juneau and will be in Seward on one
of the next boats. In the meantime
local fans are hoping for a reduced
rate on the railroad as it will be one
sweet ‘‘mill.”
Red Campbell of Seward will train
with Cullen, having boxed with him
two years ago in Los Angeles.
CHAMBER MEETING TOMORROW
The local chamber of commerce will
hold its usual weekly luncheon at the
Grill tomorrow. Mr. Rucker will re
port on his recent mission to An
chorage and considerable other busi
ness will be transacted.
