o'coNNoR SAYS JONES CAN

corbett Refuses, Roche Not Seriously
Considered and Smith Is Opposed.
ketcheIl's Manager is
Indifferent

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 15.-"The
matter of selecting a referee for the
Ketchel- Papke fight will be left in the
hands of Tom Jones" declared Joe
O'Connor, manager for Stanley Ketch-
ell, late last night.
THE only stipulation / have made,
continued O'Connor, lis that Jones
must select either Jack Welch. Eddie
Smith or Billy Roche. ANY one of the
three is agreeable to me, but l viii
stand for no other"
Just why OConnor suddenly grew
so bland and philanthropic as to allow
the opposition to pick the referee, DO
seph sayeth not Probably O'Connor Is
imbued with the idea of treating
strangers in our midst with deep hos
pitality. Like Bernard Shaw sayeth:
"You never can tell"
One time rumor had it that Jim Cor
bett would referee, but Jim issued a
statement early last night in which ne
said he would not act. Roche name
in connection with the refereeship Of
the fight is a late card and even Billy
must realize that he is not seriously
intended, Any one who knows MS
way around the block knows that there
are Just two referees available.
Corbett would have been a good card,
hut he has withdrawn. This leaves the
field open to Eddie Smith and Jack

gossip that filtered and percolated

the referees initials are Jack Welch.
OF course, this is not official. but the

MAKE ANY WAR
CAN HAVE FIELD BOOKS AT

Threatened Rupture Between Pool.
room interests and Racing Off,
Gals Seems UnIikely-Latter
Greatly Desire Harmony

There will be no war during the
winter between the local poolroom in
terests and the Los Angeles Racing
association, according to those inter-
ested DIR. j. S. Gardner, manager of
the affairs OF Santa Anita, says that
Cy Myrick can have the field book
privileges at Santa Anita during the
season if he so desires, and undoubt-
edly this will relieve the situation most
satisfactorily.
Myrick said a few days ago that he
had not made a decision regarding the
matter, as he had not been approached
by the racing officials with any re-
quest for the close of the poolroom
during the local racing season, nor had
he been offered the field book privi-
leges. Heretofore he has closed his
room during the season and thereby
sided in making the racing venture Il
success that 1t otherwise could not
have attained had the poolroom con-
tinued it's operations, as hundreds
would go to the poolrOem in prefer
ence to paying admissions and fares
to visit the track.
Those interested in the prosperity of
the sport in the southland and desire
to see it continue will welcome the
news that there. is TO be no Wat he
tween the two interests. A war would
be regarded at this time as holding
in store disastrous results for racing
in this state and racing officials es-
pecially desire to keep harmony in the
ranks and make the sport as clean as
possible. to prevent undue undue crit
icism. This could not be accomplished
with a fight going on during the
winter.

ATHLETICS
&! A41g!1ag9}ASoss|;sIgg3PP

received a telegram last night from
Charlie Graham asking that the time
and place for the conference be
changed. Berry will wait for a letter
from Graham with a suggestion as to
the time and place for the conference
and expresses the opinion that when
they get together there will be little
difficulty in arranging the details OF
bringing the outlaws into organized
baseball.
It is not inappropriate at this time
to say that the general opinion among
Los Angeles fans is that the outlaws
will make a poor move by coming into
Los Angeles at this time. The fans
owe their allegiance in baseball to
Hen Berry and the Angels, and as they
realize this fact they will not en-
courage the establishment of an OPP
position club In this city. There may
come a time when the outlaws VIII
be welcome, and If that time ever
comes they will be invited. If the
Coast league does the right thing by
Berry and the Angels in the matter OF
q schedule or if the outlaws enter or
ganized baseball and want to put a
class team in the south, there Will
be no room for an outlaw club, and
the support it will receive will be so
slight as to discourage the promoters
at first trial.
Battling Nelson writes from New
York that his book, which will be the
life and record of Battling Nelson as
a man and a fighter, will be issued
shortly and that he anticipates a big
demand for it. Bat knows that the
sporting public is about as proud of
his record as he possibly can be, for
the very good reason that 1t admires
any fighter who is able to maui his
way to the top against the great odds
the Dane encountered, and this adj
miration is materially increased by
the recognized fact that in all his ring
engagements he has treated the public
and himself-fairly and honestly at
all times. No suspicion, even, of a
frameup ever entered into the con-
sideration of the merits of battle
where he was one of the principals.
Bat says that he will come to the
coast again after New Years day and
will stop over in Los Angeles to visit
his friends for few days.
Freddie welsh has\gone into active
training for his most important battle
with Abe Attell. Freddie finds the
air a trifie cool outdoors and is train
ing in the Venice Athletic club rooms
in Horgan's hall at Venice. He enter
tanned quite a large crowd yesterday
afternoon and there were several wo-
men in the assemblage, as always is
the case when Freddie works. He
boxed ten rounds. four with Jack Red
mond, three with Mike Lave of Chi
cago and a like number with Young
Welsh of Playa del Rey. He will
work out every afternoon for the next
eight or ten days at the same place
and will box this afternoon with
Young Kid Mccoy, Young Hugo and
Jack Redmond.
Ticket moochers will be up against
the real thing the night that Abe At
tell and Freddie Welsh mix 1t. Ac-
cording to the terms of the agreement
between the fighters and the club the
free list must be suspended, except In
Los Angeles herald., 1908-11-16

m HE fans generally hope for the sue
cess of the plans now afoot for
n bringing the outlaws into organ
lied baseball as class b organization,
as it is believed that the natural result
of such action would be the establish
ment of a class B club in Los Angeles
of the schedule question. Only on the
score of a poor schedule have the fans
ever had any grievance against the
Coast league magnates. Los Angeles
assuredly has not been treated right
in the matter of dates in the past, but
with a four-club league covering the
vast territory under the Coast league
Jurisdiction there hardly could be ar
ranged a schedule that would give Los
Angeles much of an improved schedule.
With a class B club playing on
non-conhicting schedule with the An
gels, 1t is probable that Los Angeles
fans would become about as "nutty" in
their baseball enthusiasm as they are
down east. With the opportunity to
support two pennant-chasing clubs, the
fans would keep alive an enthusiastic
interest throughout the playing sea-
son and this would rebound to the
profit and other material advantages of
both clubs and, necessarily, to both
leagues. 1t would mean continuous
baseball of a brand that would prove
immensely popular.
That match series of three-cushionI
billiards, in which len Berry is plaint-
if and Jack Ripper and Jay Davidson
are defendants, will be started tonight
at Jeffries & Kipper's parlors. The
second game will be played Tuesday
night at Berry's place, the third game
at Jeffries and Kipper's place and the
fourth game will be played at Berry s
rooms 1t is probable that the four
games will be played on consecutive
nights, but as Hen is the postponing
kid, he may dig up an excuse for post
poning the final two games after ne
has had two experiences with Kip ana
myself. Each game will be at thirty
points, and Jeffries will referee. Play
will begin each night at 8 O'Clock. Kip
has suggested that in the event Berry
happens 0hat's the world to win the
first game a bottle of Hens faVorite
"enthuser" viii be placed on tap to-
put him out of the running. The sug-
gestion will be entertained when the
emergency arises.
Baron Long said last night that he
has decided to renew his offer to Al
Kaufman and Jim Barry for 20
round of 45-round fight. Long made
them an offer of rs per cent each,
based on the gross receipts, with a
guarantee of $1,000 each, and had them
signed up until Barry found it i'm
possible to keep his engagement with
Kaufman. Barry evidently has
changed his mind now and seems to-
want to get AL I'm the ring. He has
made a proposition to fight Al on a
winner-take-all basis and $1,000 side
bet. Billy Delaney is willing to en-
terrain such proposal and 1t is proba-
BILE that Long will grab the match and
stage it after the holidays.

Frank Chance will arrive in Los An

heard of the plans of Chance he imme-

no further postponement of the big bar

cue will be about as big a success, from
the viewpoint of Hens guests, as the

winning proclivities the event is being
arranged. There will be no absentees
when Hen scans the list of invited

night that those who had been invited
