WANT WELSH
FOR AUGUST d
YOUNG OTTO SELECTED AS HIS
OPPONENT
English Champion Desires Match Pre-
vlous to His Labor Day Return
Scrap with Packy
Mcfarland

There is a probability that Freddie
Welsh will be seen in action in local
ring previous to the Labor day re-
turn match with Packy Mcfarland. 1t
is up to him to say whether or not
this will be true. The management or
the Jeffries Athletic club is sending
wires to San Francisco, Ogden, Salt
Lake and other northern fight points
in efforts to locate the English cham
pion for the purpose of proposing
25-round fight with Young Otto for
August 4, and as Welsh is spending his
time and money in the north In search
of such trouble he undoubtedly VIII
accept is he can be located.
Mcfarland was expected to come to
Los Angeles to fight the winner OF the
Brock Carsey fight before the vernon
club about the middle of August, but
Manager McCarey beat his rivals TO
the match, and now the vernon cruz
management is determined to get the
welsh end of the Labor day card for
an early attraction.
1t is considered poor business policy
for the two clubs to attempt to stage
such extraordinary attractions SO close
together. and the fans will, be delight
ed if they change their plans so that
the Mcfarland Brock and Weish-
Young Otto scraps are dated at leasI
a week or ten days apart, McCarey al
ready has dater the Mcfarland, Brock
scrap for August Z, cutting out MS pre-
linn card that was to be staged august
a. and while the fans Will be pleaseu
to hear that the Welsh young ~"
scrap is arranged, they also WIN nc
nleased with the news that the odte
has been set along about Angus.
There should be no conflicting dates az
the two clubs. and when scraps are
dated within a week. of each other tney
assnredlv are in cOnfllct.

SETTLE MINOR
DETAILS TODAY
MCFARLAND DUE TO ARRIVE ON
THE OWL.
THE THREE MANAGERS TO MEET
THIS FORENOON
Brock Arranges to Train at Venice
and VIII Begin Work Friday.
Mcfarland May Return
to Vernon

Telegraphis advices from San Fran
cisco were received yesterday bv Man
ager McCarey to the effect that Packy
Mcfarland and his manager, Harry
Gilmore, accompanied by Trainer Pat
Kinealy and Red Weimer, had left for
Los Angeles and would arrive this
morning at 1856 o'clock. Packy and his
manager will meet Manager McCarey
of the club and Manager McRea for
Phil Brock this forenoon to settle all
minor details of the match between the
hard-hitting lightweights, and then
Packy will select his training quarters
and get to work.
Brock will remain at Venice and train
in the ring where he conditioned him
self for his fight with Carsey. He
probably will begin work Friday. Nc
Rea Is trying to arrange for a new
training staff for Brock, and probably
will get Danny Webster and Leonard
Lauder to assist the Cleveland boy in
his work. This pair of local cracks will
give Phil all the work he will require
to get into trim Cor putting up the
best fight of which he is capable when
he meets the unbeaten Chicago boy.
1t will be fine stroke for all con-
cerned if Webster and Lauder can be
engaged for sparring and training part
ners for Brock. Not only will Brock
profit by the deal, but Webster and
Lauder also will find it much to their
advantage. Brock Is one of the leading
top-notch boys In the near-champion
class of lightweights, and the local
boys would pick up a considerable
knowledge of the game by working
with him.
Mcfarland may go back to his quar-
tiers at the South Side Athletic club,
where he trained for his fight with
Welsh. He has a desire to work at q
beach resort, but Gilmore is not as
much inclined in that direction as is
Packy, and Gilmore is boss of the roost.
Paclxy makes weight easily, and the
seaside air would not have any great
effect upon him, but the Vernon club
probably is more attractive to them,
now that they are acquainted and
where there is every convenience de-
sired for thorough work.
There Is considerable speculation
among the fans as to what chance
Brock will have with the Chicago bay.
especially in 10-round fight. The boys
fight along similar lines, and both are
noted for their speed, punch and game
ness, while neither is famous for any
superior cleverness as a fancy boxer.
The fight SINNERS down, therefore, to
a prospect for another such battle as
that which Carsey and Brock put up
last Friday night This is good enough
for the fans in any city, as the Friday
night scrap was the greatest battle
ever fought locally.

.STRACHAN is GREATEST
JUNIOR TENNIS PLAYER
Local Experts Predict That He Win
Defeat Any Rival of His Age
and Size In the
World

The poor showing made by the local
tennis players at the Santa Barbara
tournament, which ended Saturday
night, may be explained in the fact
that the tennis courts at the Hotel
Potter are constructed of asphalt, while
most of the local courts are of cement,
and that by practicing on cement
courts the local players were made to
expect fast ball, instead of the slow
ball that Is so evident on an asphalt
court Whether this is the cause of the
seeming slump on the part of the Los
Angeles cracks is not known, as they
are too good sportsmen TO offer any ex-
cuses. They are unanimous in their
praise of the treatment accorded them
at the northern resort and pronounce
1t the best tournament ever held there.
The real feature of the tournment
was the phenomenal playing of Robert
Strachan, the 15-year-old San Fran
cisco lad. He began by winning the
juniors singles cup from Ward Daw-
son, and without pausing for rest de-
feated Carl Gardner, S. M. Sinsabaugh,
Robert Rogers and Tom Bundy. He
then played a five-set match with
James, winning two of them and prob
ably would have won the deciding set
had he not been SO tired. During the
play with James the little fellow nearly
collapsed, and q doctor was required tc
massage his legs so that he could finish
playing. 4
Many of the local players who weri
seen yesterday had only praise fol-
Strachan A. C. Way said: HE Is a
little slender Scotch fellow, is quiei
hammered and his intuition as to where
the ball will land surpasses anything
ever saw in all my sixteen years OF
playing"
He is a little wonder" said Ton
| Bundy yesterday. "He is only fee
high and is absolutely careful as to his
playing and let's the other man take al
the risks. He possesses a good variety
of strokes. I am sure that he can beat
anyone in the world of his age and
size. He was the pet of the whole
crowd at the tournament and he Is
such a mild hammered little fellow thai
one could not help liking him."
Another feature of the tournament
was the marvellous playing in th'
doubles of James and Mclaughlin, who
never lost a set throughout the tourna'
ment.
