CLEAN SPORT OR

Commercialism and sport won't
mix. Tho public will not stand for
syndicate base ball. nor viii II sup
port any other branch OF sport as
soon as tho dollar and cent end be-
comes too prominent.
Tho best indication Of this Is
shown BY the attitude OF the public
IN the Jeffries-Johnson match. The
picture end OF the contest has hoen
entirely too prominent IN the negu-
tintions between the two fighters.
The result is that all sorts of rumors
have been started. IL IL asserted
that the Fighters have agreed 10
hippodromc their contest for six
rounds, SO as to give the pictures
a chance to be OF some value, and
naturally the impression has been
