ROCHE ENTERS THE FIELD
FOR CANS NELSON BOUT
Colrna's Fight Magnate to
the Fore With Offer of
$4,000 Purse
BY r. a. Sr17ytI1

william Roche, the Colma boxing
magnate, has shied his castor into the
ring and is out to capture the Cans
Nelson fight in opposition to Eddie
Graney and Tex Rickard. The Napo-
leon of Goldfield." as Announcer Billy
Jordan proclaimed Richard at the ring
side on Tuesday night, posted $lO,OUO as
a guarantee for $4,000 purse for a
fight to be decided at Ely, Nevada, on
July 4. Graney ra1sed this offer to
$40, 900 and also posted $4,000 check
to show his earnestness in the matter.
Roche was something of piker in
the matter of his deposit, as he put up
only $4,000, but he outbid the rival pro-
moters by Offering $4,000. Why he did
not round this out with an extra $500
is hard to tell, as that sum would
sound better and money is no object to
Billy when the reckless feeling comes
over him. If the worst came to the
worst. he could sell some of his race
horses and then he would be ready to
outbid a Rockefeller.
Roche makes one palpable mistake
at the outset of his campaign by an
nouncing that he will not deal with
Billy Nolan, who is Nelson's accredited
representative. The Hegewisch man
has always relied on the shrewdness
VI HIS manager III the IudhlHS Ol
matches, and there is no chance of his
changing his attitude at the present
time. In addition to this, Nelson has
said that he would not do business with
Manager Coffroth until he received the
forfeit money the latter held out on
him after the last fight at Colma. Nell
son will at once associate the offer
made by Roche with Coffroth, feeling
sure the latter Is the man who will
finance the match should 1t by any
chance go to the bid of Roche.
The latter wants the weight to be
133 pounds two hours before the fight,
SO that If either man were overweight
the doors of his pavilion would not be
opened. The fight would be scheduled
for fifty rounds, which would mean vir-
tually finish.
Roche has a second string to his bow.
Failing to engage Cans and Nelson, he
will try to induce Tommy Ryan to meet
Joe Thomas in fight for the middle
weight championship. Ryan has writ
ten that he is willing to fight for a
100000 purse. Thomas is more moder-
ate in his demands, so the financial end
of the affair could be readily adjusted.
If Roche's alarm clock does not
awaken HIM he will keep on dreaming g
that he is, in a class with Eddie Graney
as promoter. The latter, by the way.
says that Cans and Nelson will fight

Eastern manufacturers of automo-
biles are fast beginning to realize that
California, especially San Francisco, is
one of the prominent markets of the
United States. Never since the motor
car made it's first appearance on the
coast has so much attention been paid
to the game here by those who are
promoting the sale of automobiles as at
present. For the first time the sales
managers of the big Eastern firms are
regarding the coast as of enough i'm
portance TO warrant their paying it a
visit. The latest OF the Fasteners to
arrive is Roy f. York, vice president
and sales manager of the Stearns Com
pany. He reached the city a few days
ago and has been looking over the
field. Speaking of the conditions in
San Francisco, he said that most of the
automobile magnates on the other side
of the Rocky Mountains did not fully
appreciate the Importance of the fold
in California
1.-THE average man who has never
visited this State has no conception of
the wealth and activity here" said he.
1T is the latter that interests the auto
mobile manufacturer, for it is this ac-
tivity that calls for the automobile.
Anything that will increase the speed
with which business can be transacted
is in demand, especially during this Pc
riod of rebuilding. With the automo-
bile so firmly entrenched, 1t will con-
tinue In public favor. Climatic condi-
tions also make the coast pre-emineEtly
