REFEREE P|GkARD
NOT A FAvOR|TE
Fight Fans Are Not Pleased With
His Selection to Officiate at
Big Fight.
BY MAX BALTHAsAR.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 1t.-ttSht
fans are showing no enthusiasm to-
day over the selection of Tex Richard
to referee the big fight between Jack
Johnson and Jim Jeffries on July 4.
Being an untried quantity en- q
referee, the public is afraid his selec-
ton will seriously AFFECT the betting
and make hundreds of bettors q bit
chary about risking their coin. There
is no disposition anywhere to question
Richards absolute honesty. but even
his friends copcede that Il man with
no experience as a referee ~ Under
taking a big contract In acting as the
arbiter for the greatest fight ever
pulled OF.
For this reason 1t is believed that
Richard will eventually force John
SON and Berger to agree on another
man.
Rickard has thorough knowledge
OF the prize fighting game from the
spectators standpoint. but this
doesn't necessarily mean that he
would get along successfully as the
third man in the ring. Richard would
probably be so busy looking out for
fouls that he couldn't, many sports
think, pay sufficient attention to the
scientific progress OF the battle, SO
that in case it went the limit wrong
decision might be given.
There Is q general belief. too, that
Rickard. as one OF the promoters OF
the fight. should not act an referee.
A few of the sports take the oppo-
site view, declaring that Richard. be-
ing the chief promoter, will be above
corrupting Influences. The majority
Of the fans say that promoting and
refereeing the fight sayors too much
OF one man power.
Johnson says the selection OF Kick
ard has got to stick" and that he
isn't going to worry another minute
over the referee question. Berger
however, inttmates that Richards Sc
lection is "only tentative"
johnson submitted only two names
for referee, Eddie Graney and Jack
rffeh.-w while lilly Roche Charley
Eyton. Johnny Herget. Eddie Smith
and phil Wand were suggested by
berger. Berger offered to leave the
| SELECTION of referee to the sportins
Editors of the San Francisco news
naners. but johnson wouldn't listen
ID this. Finally Richards name wal
suggested. and without further par
| ieying the promoter was agreed on
