THOMPSON WILL RETIRE.
But Not Till He Has Won the Light
Weight ChampionsIlip.

Kansas City, Dec.415s--There is a
great deal of interest in the Thomp-
son-HyIand fight which takes place
here Friday night. Both have light
weight championship aspirations.
Johnny Thompson will retire from
the fight game forever if he ever wins
the title. 81 have been after this title
for long time but have had hard
luck" he said last night. 81
think now that am on the
road to battle with Nelson and if I
ever get it I will expect to be wearing
the crown the next day after the
bout. These clever men can beat me
in ten rounds but that is not a real
fight. Twenty-Five or forty-fi five
rounds is the distance to go to find
out how good a man is. I think I can
whip Nelson in a long battle Nelson
never knocked Hyland out. he simply
won because Hyland was exhausted
trying to knock Nelson out. I will
not tire out as quick as Hyland and
I will fight Nelson at his own game.
If he can beat me in the finish fight
I am willing to quit. But he has got
that to do. No man ever put me in
dreamland when I was right and L
am right all the time now. I do not
care anything about the money there
is in the fight. have got a farm and
that is enough I simply want to be
the champion, and when I get there
L will retire and be willing to give the.
title to a man whom I think can de-
fend it. L simply want money enough
out of the fight game to pay ex-
penses.'

ternoon at the K. c. A. c. and ended

ROPER COMES HIGH
Asks Five Thousand Dollars to
Coach Tigers.
Missouri Has Decided That Price
Is Too Much.
WE'LL PAID LAST YEAR
Drew Down Twenty-Five Hun
dred for Nine Weeks Work.
Another Guide Will Be Chosen
for Next Season.

Kansas City. Dec. 15.-TI1e glittering
glamour of that Missouri football vic
tory Thanksgiving Day is beginning to
fade, the magic spell that Roper
wrought is beginning to lose it's charm
and with the passing of the glamour
and the breaking of the spell that talk
of such an enormous salary for Roper
next season is being toned with a vein
or two Of reason. DR.. A. Ross Hill,
president of the University of Missouri,
now says that $4,000 for nine weeks
work is too much and that Roper has
Columbia next fall And DIR. A. Ross
Hill is quite right about the matter.
The Princeton man turned out good
eleven at Missouri last fall. He was
well paid for his nine weeks work
81, 500. Where else in the Missouri val
ley was a football coach SO well re-
munerated? And Roper knew that he
was well paid.
When the Missouri authorities began
to look around for a coach after the
Thanksgiving game here in 1908 Roper
was one of the men suggested. 1t
CHANGED that he was the first one con-
suited. A Missourian visited Roper in
Philadelphia and offered him the job
of coaching the Tiger team.
Why" said Roper, that's out of the
question; you cOulont pay tne money
out there"
Maybe we could" retorted the Mis-
sourian. How much will it take to get
you out there?"
Roper unused and then as though to
settle the question he remarked with an
air of finality. "Oh, I'd come for 81. 800"
THAT suits u.s." the Tiger coach
hunter fired back. When will you sign
a contract?"
Roper was roped. He came west,
toiled nine weeks and beat Kansas.
Sure he did some other things, but that
drubbing of the Jayhawkers was the
browning feature of Roper's work.
After the Thanksgiving day game here
Roper was the idol of the hero worship
pers. They were in favor of giving the
Princeton gent anything he wished for
and were quite loud in the belief that
the University of Missouri would go to
bloomin' pieces if Roper wasn't hastily
cinched for 1910. Could he get $1,000 for
his nine weeks work another year?
Now the tide has turned.
