JOHNSON And MANAGER LITTLE
GET in GENERAL BATTLE-GROUND FIGHT

Richard is the man with the dough and
what he says goes.
A far as I'm concerned I'm willing
to fight Jeffries anywhere. l have no
personal preferences so long as Jeffries
is or han and in his best form"
But here is what Little had to say
regarding the controversy a few min
utes later:
You can take it from me that the
fight will never be pulled off in Utah.
The site which has been agreed upon Is
at Ocean View, a short distance south
of San Francisco. A temporary arena
to seat 10000 Is to be constructed ana
a railroad company has agreed to de-
posite the ticket-holders at the gates
within twenty minutes after they leave
Fort and Market streets. San Fran
cisco. I'm willing to bet $1,000 that the
fight takes place in California.

Now Christy Matthewson is objecting
to the twelve-month contract. Very
many people think this contract forbids
players to indulge in winter sports.
The new form of contract does not for
bid men from going in for other sports.
IT simply compels them to ask their
employers if they may do so. The terms
ssof this contract, it seems, would simply
apply to the stars. making it a good
thing for them. They are paid well
enough to forego a little extra money in
Yt1e winter. In addition to this, the or
binary player who would be given per-
mission to participate in some winter
game. if injured, would not be severely
blamed. because his employer would
have given his permission.
