ARE CURIOUS AS TO DIVISION
OF PURSE
Jeff Is Surprised at Action, but Sam
Thinks Champion Is Misinformed.
johnson Creates Favor.
able Comment
(By Associated press.)

NEW YORK, Aug. 12.-The actual
signing of a tentative agreement be-
tween James J. Jeffries and Jack
johnson for a fight for the worlds
heavyweight championship has given
great satisfaction to sporting men in
the east who figure that Jeffries and
his manager, Sam Berger, have won a
victory by pinning Johnson down to
an actual arrangement for the much
discussed battle.
Johnson's conduct during the inter
view with Berger In Chicago and his
willingness to let Jeffries dictate the
division Of the purse, together with his
offers to bet Berger that Jeffries would
never fight him, have created a favor
able impression, and it is possible that
Johnson has made more friends than
he had in this vicinity.
Followers of the fighting game will
be greatly interested in the manner in
which Jeffries divides the purse money.
Johnson's offer to let Jeffries dictate
the terms even to a winner take ALL
clause is believed by many here to be
a bluff and that Johnson will not really
stand for this when the final agree
ments are signed. Tffis magnanimity
by Johnson is taken to mean that he
himself has little idea that there will
be a fight. There is a story current
here that Johnson in the last few
months has been spending money at
such a lavish rate that he has little
left and that he was anxious to sign
any terms suggested by Berger. In tho
belief that 1t would bring him addi-
tional advertising, which will be valu-
able to him in his show business. In
fact there is an underlying current of
feeling among sportsmen, or perhaps
a fear, that Jeffries and Johnson will
never fight.

PREDICTS GREAT RACE
IN 1OO-YARD DASH
Sullivan Looks for Most Sensational
Century Sprint Ever Seen in This
Country at Seattle A. A.
v. Meet

SEATTLE, Wash, Aug 12.-'I look
for one of the greatest races in the
hundred-yard dash the country has
even seen," said James f. Sullivan,
president of the American Athletic
union, yesterday in discussing the an
nual championship meet which will be
held at the Alaska a-Yukon-Pacific expo
sition stadium tomorrow and Saturday.
"Dawbarn, the Princeton man, is un-
doubtedly one of the fastest men in
the country today, and it would not
surprise me to see him go the dis
tance in 8 AS seconds. May and Ham
ilton of Chicago are flyers of the first
class, and I understand you have very
speedy men out here in Jack Nelson,
Courtney and Martin.
Never before have the games set
tied down into a struggle between the
east and the west as they are doing
for these championships. We have the
pick of New York, Boston and Chicago
athletes, the pick of the Mississippi
valley in such men as Forline, the
Missouri sprinter. and the pick of Cal
ifornia and the northwest"

BOXING ATHLETICS
NEWS OF THE DIAMONDS
by CHARLES JERNEGAN

4 II Wednesday evenings meeting of
II the Southern State Baseball
IA league Manager Ward of the Gdi-
son team endeavored to secure the
services of Ed Haight and Leahy OF
the Dyas-Cline nine by offering them
cash inducements. The action of Man
ager Ward has been severely censured
by every member of the Southern state
league, and it is not believed that
either of the players will accept his
terms. There are, however, two sides
to this story, as the league Is an anna
teur organization in name only and
should be classed under the semi-pro-
fessional head.
The WieIand baseball artists will
cross bats with the Southern Paclhc
nine Sunday afternoon at the grounds
of the former aggregation. Both teams
are playing good ball, the Wielands
having won both of their previous con-
tests. A fast game should result.
The Santa Fe baseball team has re-
organized and feels confident of making
a frst-class showing with the new
lineup, which includes many star anna
teur \ players. Jim Lane has been
chosen manager, while Andy Harigan
will pilot the nine in the capacity of
captain.
Fred Cleveland, formerly of the
Thistles, is requested to phone Mana
ger Hansen of the Market Nationals as
soon as possible. Call Main 51S4.
The Y. M. c. A. baseball team wants
to wallop the Long Beach boys on
either July q or rs. Answer through
The Herald.
The Star baseball team of San Pedro
would like to cross bats with any anna
teur nine, and will pay expenses for
ten men. Answer through The Herald
or write w. F. Pritcher S24 Fourteenth
street. San Pedro,
The Wilmington baseball team will
cross bats with the Teddy Bears Sun
day afternoon in what should prove to
be one of the fastest amateur games of
the season, neither nine having been
defeated for some time.
The five teams which compose the
Sunday School Baseball league are fast
nearing the close of the season, with
the Central Baptists well in the lead
and, according to the present outlook,
there appears to be little likelihood
that this classy aggregation will be
headed. The Centrals have some first
class players in their lineup in Harris,
Content and Pierce, this trio playing
their infield positions in major league
form. Roy Myers and c. Sebastian, the
former of Los Angeles high school,
while the latter is an old Polytechnic
player, are two of the best men in the
league. Saturday afternoon. August
IA, the Bethesdas will meet the Central
Baptists in what should be one of the
best games of the season, as both mines
are at the top of the percentage coll
umn, the Bethesdas holding down sec
ond place. The First Baptist will also
meet the Pico boys although a victory
for the former team is foregone con-
clusion. Following are the present
standings of the mines:
