jEM DR|SCOLL
FAvOR|TE OVER
SH|FTY ATTELl
Englishman's Backers Wager 10
to 7 That He'll Best Amer
lean Champion.

NEW YORK, Feb. 19.-Jem Driscoll
will enter the ring at the National A.
G. tonight "A pronounced favorite over
Abe Attell for their ten-round world
championship battle.
The English feathcrweight champion
was we'll backed at local sporting re-
sorts today, his supporters willingly
giving odds of 10 to Z.
When Driscoll and Attell get on the
scales in the clubs gymnasium at 9
o'clock both will be under the specified
weight of 125 pounds. Attell will pro-
badly weigh about 122 at that hour,
while Driscoll will just about tip the
beam. In spite of reports to the con-
trary. it is practically a sure thing
that when the men shake hands al
about 1920 o'clock, Driscoll will be
nearly five pounds heavier than th-
American champion.
At their training quarters today the
men did very little hard work. Roth sa1d
they were fit. and would be in the finest
of condition when the bout begins. Each
expressed confidence in his ability to carry
off the honors. too.
Driscoll's friends still insisted that he
would score a clean knockout. but when
the information WAS carried to Attell he
said be didn't believe that the Welshman
could turn the trick; in fact. Attell believes
that Driscoll is very much overrGted. and
points to the fact that Jem has been de-
feating third-raters since his arrival in
this country.
Attell thinks that he can outpunch Dris-
coll also. that he possesses as much science
as the Wclsnnan, and for that rea son he
says that America will get the worlds
title.
There will be no serious trouble over the
selection of the referee. When the men
signed articles last Monday they verbally
agreed upon Charley White.
But it seems that Charles Harvey. Dris-
coils manager. has some private reason
for objecting to White and wants Tim
Hurst to of1ciatc. In the event of a dead
lock on this point John White, the match
maker of the National A. C., will be the
third man in the ring. with the veteran
timekeepcr, Joe Dunn, handling the watch
and gong.

NATIONAL LEAGUE GIVES
PULLIAM A LONG VACATION

CHICAGO. Feb. 2o.-The National
League held its session Yesterday with
John Heydler in the chair, for Presi-
dent Pulliam early in the morning
haughtily refused to preside or even to
come near the meeting.
He sent the magnates word that they
were a set Of bulls, goats and NUTS,
and sent the same extraordinary COM
munication. with language but little
changed, to the newspapers. Great ex-
element was expected with the prob
able resignation or deposition of Mr..
Pulliam, but the magnates only
hummed, hawed, shook their heads and
said Harry needs a rest.
Pulliam's declaration against the
magnates was as follows:
Il win not attend the meeting of the
National League today. I am not well and
desire 70 conserve my strength. There are
a lot of cheap individuals up there. They
are built like Durham bulls. They delight
in nagging me to a point of desperation
and then bawling me out at the tops of
their voices, like they would some poor
fellow at a clam chowder given at College
Point by Tim Sullivan.
They have something on me because I
have neither the voice nor the inclina-
tlon to reply to them. The trouble with
the so-cailed magnates is through the re-
cent growth and popularity of our national
game; they have gone money mad and

want to throw sentiment and sport to the
winds.
Their actions are just like those Of the
grasplng millionaires who owned the race
track. The actions of these men resulted
in killing off American racing. the sport
of kings Racing fourisbes in England.
France. Germany. Austria aud Russia be-
cause 1t is properly conducted on a basis
of sportsmanship."
This kind of language was SO radical
that II was felt by many to constitute q
resignation, for after such an attack It
was hard to figure what the club owners
could do but get rid of Pulliam.
But when the afternoon session took
place the magnates agreed that IN hin
nervous condition President Pulliam could
not beheld responsible for his utteraBces
and should be granted an extended leave o.
absence TO get in shape again.
Some Of the magnates ordered berths fnr,
evening trains, but Charles Murphy said
the fun would last till Monday.
One man who felt very blue was Billy
Murray. one of Pulliam's stanchest friends.
It is said that the nervous, ratified presi-
dent spoke to him yesterday in q fashion
that would jar a Stone man. and Murray
felt very badly about it. =

FRANKIE NEIL HAS
BETTER OF BOYO DRISCOLL

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Frankie Neil. the
ex-champlon featherweight, had the best of
ii last night in a ten-round bout with Boyo
Driscoll. another British fighter. who made
his first appearance here.
The first five rounds found matters about
even between the boys. both fighting fast
and cleanly. In the sixth, however. Neil
upset the Britisher with a good stin punch,
Driscoll was down only three seconds, but
that the k~nockdown had unsettled him was
apparent in the next round. when Neil had
all the better of the fighting.
Driscoll came back, however, and fought
well and hard through the remaining
rounds, but Neil was always the aggressor.
