San Francisco, July 3.-Both Papke
and Ketchel have eased off a trtfe In
work for the bout of next Monday aft
ernoon and there is the usual state
ment about good condition from both
camps. While there was considerable
comment on the fact that Ketchel was
not supposed to have trained as ar
duously as he might. he looked in good
shape today and remains warm favor
tie in the betting.
The best odds that can be secured on
him now are 10 to 4 and there is com
paratively little money placed at those
figures. The bulk Of the wagers on
bouts in this city is made in S. and $40
bets and the spectators do not seem to
find the prices attractive. 1t is be-
lieved that there will be the usual flow
of small wagers on the long shot be-
fore ring time, however.

YES, HONESTLY,
THEY WON ONE

Sox fans didn't know there were that
many runs in the world! When SuIlys
gang rose in it's wrath and heaped up
fifteen huge TALES on the browns at
the South Side yard yesterday the spec
tators leaned back and gasped for
breath. Such a complete REVERSAL of
form was like a snowstorm in August
Fourteen hits and eleven stolen bases
helped the sox to pile up a 15to-3
score over st. Louis.
There were SO many incidents con-
tanned In the nine rounds that they
couldn't be told except in a serial story.
Perhaps the most remarkable feature
was the counting of three runs on one
single. This looks strange in print,
but the truth of the matter Is simple.
Payne raped out a wallop while the
sacks were full that was easily good
for double. but tripped when round
ing first. BY the time he had picked
himself up there was no chance to
reach second. But all the runs were in.
