New York, Feb. 2L-According to H. H.
Frazee, of Chicago, who managed the
Jeffries-Gotch athletic tour, the boiler
maker is so confident of whipping Jack
Jahnson that ne has already signed
contract TO make a tour Of the world.
Frazee. who is in town. says. that the
recent athletic tour netted $s2.Sl2 for jeff
and s1s.se6 for Frank Gotch, the wrestler.

There is no time limit fixed for this
great trip. In Australia we can get
guarantee of $4,000 for fifty days and
$4,000 purse for a twelve-round fight
between JEFF and the best heavyweight
in the Antipodes. It is foolish TO say
that JEFF cannot come back TO his old
form. Why, he has never lost it. He is
as strong and fast to-day as he was five
years ago. All he needs is a little work
and outdoor exercise in the mountains
TO perfect his wind. JEFF hasn't the

Nv WILLIAM PEET.

Prominent Georgetown alumni and I'M
dergraduates expressed themselves freely
yesterday on the subject of the proposed
action by the University Of Virginia in
cutting out the annual football game here
with the Hilltoppers next fall and susti-
stuting the Carlisle Indians.
The story seems to be discredited at the
Hilltop University, and football men re-
fuse to believe that Virginia will take any
such action. IN view of the pleasant re-
lations during the past six years.
In spite of all this the writer has inveS-
tigated further and finds that the senti-
ment at Virginia among the undergradu-
ate body Is decidedly in favor Of doing
away with the annual Georgetown game,
despite the fact that this contest has al
ways proved to be big money-maker.
The Charlottesville collegians feel that
Georgetown is hardly up to Virginia s
standard in football, and that the eleven
would gain more prestige by playing
such teams as the Indians. Navy, and
Princeton.
Coach Glen Warner Saturday night
said that as far as he was concerned
the football schedule for the Indians was
a matter Of dollars and cents. He be-
lieved that Carlisle would make more
money by playing Virginia here than
In a game with George Washington. and
that he had virtually settled with the
Virginia management on November ..
From the way things look now, this
game will never be played. It's a cinch
that Georgetown viii not permit the use
CT their field. and George Washington
last night closed g deal with a we'll
known college team for a contest at
American League park on that date.
Nothing definite can be given out from
Georgetown until the university authori-
ties decide whether or not football will
be allowed next fall, and a decision in
this matter viii hardly be rendered until
after the 18th Of next month. when the
football rules committee announce the
changes in the playing code.
The story. as published exclusively in
The Washington Herald. viii. no doubt,
be denied from several quarters Tut,
nevertheless, the facts as stated are alb
soluteIy correct and come from a source
that cannot be disputed.
President Tom NoyeS. OF the Nationals.
received yesterday the signed contract OF
Pitcher Dolly Gray. who writes that he
expects to 90 much better work than last
season and has been taking the best OF
care OF himself at his home on the Pa
cific Coast this winter.

Georgetown Indignant Over Proposed Action
Trio of Nationals Report at Hot Springs.
Other Sporting Gossip.

Federal games. last Saturday night hand
ed US a raw deal. and I want TO have you
give US your decision on the matter.
Please state If the starter of relay race
has the right 10 tell three runners on
team to go ahead and run before either
of the three has been touched by their
teammates. In the race between the
National Guard and the Fifth Regiment
of Baltimore, the man running third for
Baltimore admitted that Murphy told him
to go along before he could have gotten
away he had waited until his teammate
touched his hand, and this lost US the
wrong. Please let me know Yours, truly.
D. L. ELLSWORTH,
Captain Corcoran Cadets.
Ans.-You are perfectly right Mr..
Murphy should not have ordered a relay
runner to leave his mark until the run
ners' hand had been touched by his team
mate.
The writer received the following dis
patch from Hot Spring last night;
'F. L. witherup. wild Conroy and

bowling schedule which will continue
while the big thaw is breaking, and now
prevents outdoor practice. In the first
