JEFFR|ES TO RETURN2
Present Indications Point to Fu-
ture Meeting With Johnson.
TO TOUR WITH AL KAUFMAN.
Trip With California Heavyweight Re-
scrdcd as Preliminary Step to Big
BattIe-He Recently Weighed $50
Pounde--Corbett In Training.
By THOMAS F. CLARK.


Is James ]. Jeffries, retired heavy
weight champion, to return to the ring
and fight Jack Johnson? This is the
question that has been agitating the
sporting public for the past few weeks.
AT present all indications point to a
future battle between the pair. JEFF
fries has dispose of his holdings in his
Los Angeles fight club and has agreed
to go on a thcstricGl tour with Al
Kaufman, the California heavyweight,
as a sparring partner. If reports are
to be believed, tie big fellow has
placed himself in the hands of Billy
Delaney, the astute manager who first
saw great possibilities in Jim Jeffries
and mClded the crude youngster into
the worlds greatest heavyweight pu-
gilist.
While Jeffries has not announced his
return TO the ring. his tour with Kauf-
man is but preliminary to Il worlds
championship battle. He has actually
started in to train in LOsAAngeles, and
while ON the road he Will do some
strenuous work with Kaufman. This
move on the part of the big fellow is
taken to mean that he will soon an
nounce his return.
When Jeffries entered the gymnasi-
um recently he tipped the scales at
260 pounds stripped, it is said, and
declared to. several friends that if he
ever fought again he would have to
take off at least thirty-fve pounds.
Billy Delaney says Jim can easily
take off thirty-fve pounds in six
months and that he can also get into
old time physical condition. If JEFF
fries should decide to fight Johnson
the l0ilermaker would be compelled
to reduce gradually, which would be
accomplished by long runs on the
road, steady work in the gymnasium
and dieting.
AS the big fellow is only thirty-four
years old. ring experts say that he
could train down and be strong and
fast enough to give a good account of
himself in battle with Johnson. But
with Jeff willing to make a match it
must not be forgotten that he would
have to wait for Johnson to name the
date of the encounter.
Johnson, if lie does not keep out of
the ring for a year or more, will have
plenty of work cut out for him, as
Sam Langford and Joe Jeanette, both
cOlored, will try to meet him in Lon
don, while, according to Willus Britt,
Stanley Ketchel,. the present miGdle-
weight champion, says he will make 4
match with Johnson as soon as the
latter is willing to talk business. But
Ketchels sudden change of front, if
correctly reported, does not cut much
figure with sporting men, inasmuch
as he has persistently refused to ac-
cept the challenge of Langford
All things considered, therefore, it
looks as if negotiations for Jeffries-
Johnson fight. if Jeff comes back, will

Holiday Games

BERKELEY, Nov. 15.-Following it's
victory of last Saturday the Univer-
sity of California Rugby fifteen will, in
all probability, travel to Vancouver
and play the northerners on Christmas
day An invitation has been extended
to the blue and gold players TO make
the trip, and Captain Burns OF the
Vancouver team, who made the offer,
is extremely anxious that the match be
arranged.
If the plans are carried out the var

MIA field this morning. J. \. Jenkinson
of the northern Rugby Referees union
stated that if California would accept
the invitation of the Vancouver team,
the games would be made the biggest
events of the season in that vicinity.
In speaking of saturdays game at to-
day's rally, Referee Jenkinson said.
s.Prior to the game it was my private
opinion that stanford was, by a mar. ,o
two thought that the contest would
be an extremely close and hard one but
considered that Stanford should nave
a shade the better of the argument.

I know NOW that / was wrong. There
is absolutely no doubt that the better

1t is taken as a foregone conclusion
on the California campus that Coach

season. The return or Mother howe
is not so certain. In a few days Howe
will return TO Australia and he Is now
uncertain whether or not he viii be
able to arrange his affairs so as to re-
turn TO assist Schaeffer in rounding
next seasons team into shape.
California is looking forward TO
string of Victories that will rival the
large number of Stanford victories of
the last few years. Having demon
strated their superiority over one of the
hest cardinal teams that mas ever
pIayed. the blue and gold players are
figuring upon certain defeat 1or Stan-

the money on hand was counted and it
was estimated that the total gate re-
