EAST AND WEST WILL
CLASH ON GRIDIRON
First IntersectlonaI Game of Year
viii Be Played Saturday.
Michigan to Play
Syracuse

NEW YORK. Oct. 28.-Great interest
is being shown in eastern colleges in
the first of the east versus the west
football games which will be played
next Saturday when the Syracuse
eleven goes to Ann Arbor and when
the coaching methods Of Tad Jones
will be pitted against those of Yost of
the Michigan team.
Heretofore the east has had all the
better Of the west in sectional football
matches. During the year which Mich
igan ran UP such enormous scores
against it's western adversaries there
was no match with the east and there-
fore no comparison could be made.
Last year Chicago, the strongest
team in the west, played 6 to tie
with Cornell, and Cornell was several
places removed from the front rank OF
the eastern elevens. Carlisle was
beaten by Minnesota, II to 6, but MIN
nesota had been put away handily by
Chicago.
Carlisle beat three western teams
st. Louis, Nebraska and Denver; Penn
sylvania smothered Michigan, 20 to U,
and Syracuse also Swamped Michigan.
AS Michigan has been announced as
the strongest looking western team this
season, western experts are eagerly
awaiting the result of the game.

Manager McGraw of the New York
Nationals has arrived to trade Pitcher

could not make satisfactory financial
arrangements with Mr. McGraw last
season, will go to Philadelphia in ex-
change for Sherwood McGee, accord
ing to the same authority, and Fred
Merkle and Charlie Herzog, two of
the likeliest youngsters in big COM
pany are to go to st. Louis in ex-
change. for Ed Konetchy.
McGraw has refused to make pub
lie any details of the deal with Chi
cAgo, but it is understood that to get
King he was compelled to offer
Wiltse, who is liked by Manager Frank
Chance, and $500 besides, thus making
King a $4,000 asset. 1t is figured
that these three deals will materially
strengthen the teams involved.

[By Associated Press.1

NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.-The match
for the heavyweight championship Of
the world between Jack Johnson, the
negro champion, and James ]. Jeffries,
the retired title holder, will be ar
ranged at a meeting of the principals
and their managers at 8 o'clock to-
morrow afternoon in this city.
The arrangements for the meeting
were made by George Little. manager
Of Johnson, and Sam Berger, manager
for Jeffries, who held a conference a
few hours after the arrival here of
Johnson from Chicago today.
81 am glad to get back to New
York. ! have come all the way from
San Francisco to meet Mr.. Jeffries and
sign articles for our battle, and 1 am
willing to make the match under any
fair conditions" said Jack Johnson,
the negro heavyweight, as he disem-
barked from the Twentieth Century
Limited from Chicago at the Grand
Central station.
There was a big crowd on hand in
Guiding many of his negro friends, to
welcome Jeffries' rival. Johnson was
accompanied by his manager, George
Little. The two men had some diff
Guilty in getting through the crowd
which gathered along the station plat
forms and crowded and cheered the
champion.
johnson grinned from ear to ear as
the crowd gathered around and shook
him by the hand and asked about the
fight with Jeffries.
"The Sooner the Better"

sooner the better" said Johnson. II

get that boil? I guess I have been
living too high"
Speaking of the match with Jeffries,
Johnson displayed an evident desire to
have the articles signed right away
and the negotiations for the contest
concluded.
George Little, my manager. will see
Sam Berger" said Johnson, "and ar
range for a meeting. OF course I shall
be at the meeting, for Jeffries and
can do more in five minutes to settle
this matter than all the go-betweens
can do in a day.
Il am ready to abide by the condi-
tions that I entered into with Berger
in Chicago, except that I shall ask for
winners and losers division of the
purse"
Jeffries was delighted when he heard
that Johnson had reached the city, and
said he was ready at any time to ar
range terms.
| The ex-boilermaker put in some time
today in gymnasium work.
Little went at once to the hotel
where Jeffries and his manager are
staying, but was informed the former
champion and Berger had gone out
Little expressed surprise that Jeffries
should not have remained to meet him
knowing that Johnson and himself
would arrive today. Little left note
for Berger, saying Johnson and him
self would remain at their hotel al
day to make the match.
"As to the $4,000 I put up some time
ago that Johnson would fight" Little
said Il am willing to bet that sun
at even money that Johnson wins, ane

Captain Dillon re-entered the game for
the first time in several weeks, taking
Hughie Smiths place at the plate. He
gave the hit and run sign to the run
ners and landed on the ball for a single
to right, bringing over Wheeler. Del
mas was caught at the plate trying to
add another tally, else the score would
have been more one-sided. The ninth
was a fruitless period for the north
erners, Guyn, who batted for Carson,
and Ort and Olson going out in order.
The Angels were glad to call this a
game and the Beavers quit a sore lot.
A freak juggling catch of a bouncer
which carried Third Baseman johnson
nearly to first before he carraled the
ball and enabled him to make an easy
assist, was the fielding feature of the
game. The score:

ton is situated the little home and the

or perhaps more of tn eyouthful faces

coming.
Baseball is a strenuous game, mans
game, in which it takes a man with
the heart and the spirit to be success
full. But just because they can roar
at the umpire and rave at bad luck,
and slug a hard piece of leather around
the field, it does not mean that those
ball players have no soft spot in their
hearts. On the contrary, away down
deep there is a tender little portion
sheltered away from the wildness and
stress of conflict and devoted to
thoughts of home. 1t sounds easy, does
a ball players life. Once iii while
a morning practice, two hours of play
every day, and-in the Coast league
salaries ranging from $3.50 a month for
the youngsters to $400 for the best
players. Lots of time to rest, their
evenings free and no responsibilities
of a worrisome business. But there is
another side. Probably one-half the
players are away from home, even
when playing in the teams home town.
Many of them when joining their team
for spring practice see their home for
the last time until the end of the sea-
son. This means six months of the
homeless life, and the average man,
be he ever so carefree a creature,
misses that home atmosphere Some
times things happen while the player
is with his team. There is sickness,
| occasionally death and once in a while
a wee one joins the family, not to know
its fathers face until months after its
birth.
Out on the first base station of the
Portlanders yesterday a stOcky, whole
souled specimen nervously paced back
/ and forth, watching the progress of the
! game with more than the interest of
| a player fighting for his teams sue
| cess First Baseman Ort, one of the
| best players and noted as the most
formidable fighter of the Portland
team, was like a boy out for his first
spring tramp when the Beavers as
| sumed a five-run lead. He smiled at
| everyone and everything, and more
than once he was caught a-day dream
| ing. But when the Angels tied things
up and then forged ahead, the life went
out of this players work for the time
being. His shoulders dropped un-
consciously, his face heightened his
efforts were listless and spiritless.
Away back in Detroit town, there is
a family and fireside awaiting Ort.

SANTA MONICA TO PLAY

SANTA MONICA, Oct. 27.-High
school students and other football fans
are awaiting with interest the game to
be played on the local grounds be-
tween the high school team and the
eleven from the Long Beach school.
This is the first game Of the season to
be played here.
The local boys have been busy prac-
ticing for several days, as they exect
to work hard for every point made.
Only two games have been played by
the Santa Monica team so far, but good
work was shown in each case.

heard his fathers voice, or been fon-
died by the big hands unused to car
rying such a tiny burden. Ort has
been away from home seven months.
Shortly after he left he was NOTED by
wire that a little child had been born.
But he was on duty then and could not
be spared. Consequently the months
flew by and the little one grew without
seeing his father. Yesterday a victory
for the Portland team would have
clinched their title to second place.
Had Portland won, his leader, Nc
Credie had promised Ort that he would
let him start for home All day the
Portland first baseman played in hope
of a victory, but now he must wait
another day and possibly another and
another before he can be off to the
home and the little one. Verify, all is
not peace and contentment among the
baseball players despite their short
hours and their good salaries.
Gray and Easterley! When the UNI
pire announces the battery of the An
gels for next Sundays game, the fans
will be carried back into year-old
Coast league history. Dolly Gray of
the washington Americans and Teddy
Easterley of the Cleveland Americans
will form the Angel battery occupy
ing the old familiar places under their
gray-haired former chieftain, Captain
Frank Dillon. It is probable that Nc
Credie will place Speck Hardness, his
best pitcher, on the mound against
Gray, and Fisher behind the bat, op-
posing EasterleN Wonder if Teddy
will slip one of those home-run stunts
over on his old admirers?
Two days ago there came over the
wires the story of the victory of Monte
Attell of San Francisco over Jimmy
Carroll, a northern bantamweight.
Several times in the story Attell was
referred to as the bantamweight
champion, and later the news service
sent a "lill" requesting that the word
champion" referring to Attell, be
omitted wherever used. There's a new
champion of the worlds bahtams. His
name is Danny Webster and he lives
in Los Angeles. The outside world has
recognized that fact and for the first
time in the history of the ring cham
pion has been conceded his title by a
newspaper decision.
Los Angeles has a bare chance to
take second place. If they defeat Port
land in every remaining game of the
present and final series the Dillonites
will have nosed the Beavers out of
second position. They are playing a
powerful game this week and may do
it, though it's hardly an even money
