LIBRARY FACILITIES
ARE INADEQUATE

Librarian Utley is pessimistc In
the annual report OF the Detroit pub
lie library just issued. He says mo
evident progress has been made in
the year past in improving library Ia
cilities. In fact. the situation was
worse at the end than at the begin
ming OF the year, for a considerable
shelf space has been used up with no
relief in sight. The day OF make
shifts continues"
The librarian adds that the pres
ent main library building is entirely
Inadequate and unsuitable for It's pur-
pose.
The report shows 10 per cent gain
during the year in the number OF per
sons holding cards. This Is explained
by the opening of new branches and
stations. The branches which reach
the Polish and French district have
shown a decided increase.

PACKY DECIDES TO
GO BACK TO VERNON
Prefers the South Side Athletic Club
Quarters to Those Offered for
His Use at the Beaches
While Training

It was definitely decided yesterday
evening that Packy Mcfarland will
train at the South Side Athletic club
scheduled to be staged at MoCarey's
pavilion August 7. Manager Harry Gill
more visited the beaches yesterday and
looked over the advantages offered
Packy to train there, and after con-
sidering everything. decided that the
Vernon camp would be better adapted
to all the requirements of the Chicago
boy in training. Packy is acquainted
at the South Side Athletic club and
there when training for his fight with
Welsh that he will be better satisfied
there than elsewhere.
He will start training Saturday aft
ernoon, and while he has not selected
his training staff yet he probably will
have Charlie Anslinger and one or two
local boys, probably Frank Carsey for
one, to help him. Carsey will be or
great help to Packy having fought
Brock so frequently, and If he can
be induced to work with the Chicago
boy he probably will be engaged.
Brock will begin work Saturday at
Venice, using the same quarters he
occupied when training for his fight
with Carsey. Inasmuch as there Is
no weight requirements for this scrap,
conditions at the seaside will not af-
feet him at all adversely, and he pre-
fers to train there.
They have not signed articles of
agreement yet, but have agreed be-
tween themselves and with Manager
McCarey on all essential points, and
the articles will be signed today.

NELSON AND CANS MATCH Off;
M'FARLAND GOING AFTER DANE
RICHARD FAILS TO GET SATISFACTORY RAILROAD RATES AND
FORFEITS HIS $1,000 DEPOSIT
Chicago Boy Greatly Enhused Prospect Getting Lightweight
Champion Ring and Offers Meet Battler Any
Terms that Are Within Bounds of Reason-Be-
eves He Will Defeat His Old-Time
Friend When They Fight

not become unreasonable.
"Packy is the best lightweight in
the world today, and if he ever gets
Nelson in the ring the title will change
hands That explains our eagerness
for the match and our Willingness to
permit Nelson to name the terms, time,
place, limit, fighters cut of the purse
and all other details as long as he
keeps within reasonable bounds. All
we want is a whack at the champion
ship, being confident we will annex It
when we get the champion into a
fight"
Gilmore evidently is not trying to
run sandy regarding the $4,000 side
bet, as he says he is ready to post
forfeit immeditely to bind him to place
the entire $4,000 at the agreed time. He
says Packy can get backing against
Nelson in any amount in Chicago and
the side bet, big or little, will not
bother them in the least.
This is the kind of talk that will
please Nelson, according to his state
ment quoted in the dispatch. If he
wants to take on any of the present
day crop of near-champions he could
select no better drawing card, as
fight with Mcfarland would draw at
least as good as a scrap with Cans,
and probably it would outdraw scrap
with the negro.
However, Nelson need not expect to
get 100000 purse for any fight in the
future. The failure of the Ely arrange
ment proves that the day of big purses
is past, and fighters must be less
greedy in valuations which they place
upon themselves as attractions in the
ring. The local clubs undoubtedly will
bid for the match if it seems to be in
fair prospect, and there is q good
chance of the scrap being pulled off
here. 1t would be of such widespread
interest that a local club could draw
probably as good a house as any
Frisco club could attract.

After ten days Of strenuous labor IN
their training camps, AL kaufmann
and Battling Johnson have knocked
off training and will take few hours
of rest before entering the ring Fri
dav night for their ten-round scrap
In the first of the elimination series
that Manager McCarey has planneo 10
settle the heavyweight championship
dispute. Both are in such perfect con-
dition that further work would stale
them and probably would materially
AFFECT their chances in the fight, so
thew and their managers decided TO
cut out the hard work. 1t is possible
that each will do bit of light work
each day In his gymnasium, just to
keen on edge, but to all intents ana
purposes the training period is at an
end.
TWO better trained fighters never
stepped into any ring. There is not a
flaw evident in their appearance or In
their actions in training to indicate
that any detail has been overlooked
They will go into the ring at practl-
calIy the same weight, close around l9O
pounds. and each is supremely con-
fdent that the fight will not go hai1
the distance, both expecting to win by
a knockout Each will have aDle ao-
vice in his corner during the hgnt,
the veteran Billy Delaney being chlet
second to Kaufman and Billy MUIR
name of San Francisco having been
wired by Manager Gaines to come
south to second Johnson. The impor-
tance Of winning appeals strongly TO
each. as defeat means quite setback
for either, and while both are pet
ting on the result, neither will admit
that he should be made favor1te on
dope.
Bat Will Rush Fight
The big Russian does not intend to
waste any time or energy in the ring.
IT will be his policy to rush Kauf-
mann off his feet from the first and
smother him with those stinging pile
driver blows that have made him IA
nous as a fighter He figures that al
is cleverer and more experienced at
the game and will try to make a run
ming slugging match Of 1t, SO tnat
rushing tactics will be necessary for
him to get to the native son and make
openings for those big hams to light
onto AIS jaw. He intends to make the
hottest pace possible and has no FEAR
of the result of fighting at close quar-
ters
Gaines said last night that Bat would
prove to be too fast, too strong and
too stinging with his wallops for the
native son. He expects Bat to sail in
from the first gong and start rough
house without delay, counting upon the
speed Of the Russian to overcome any
superior cleverness of Kaufman and
refusing to believe that the boy Won
