seeing a decidedly high-class article of
base ball. Conditions are such that the
teams are very evenly matched, and
every game is a real contest from the
first inning until the last man Is retired.
Two OF the very best teams in the
American League are now quartered in
Havana, the worlds champion Athletics
and the formidable Tigers. It's little
wonder that the Cubans are all wrought
up over the base ball situation. The
Tigers complete their stay here on the
9th OF December, the Athletics taking
up the battle where Detroit leaves off,
Since their arrival Wednesday the Ath-
letics haev been taking daily practice
They have been put out Of the game for
about month and desire to be in the
best possible condition when they meet
the strong native teams.
It will be indeed interesting to see If
the climate has similar effect on the
wonderful Athletic machine as 1t has
had on all other American clubs that
have invaded the island. The Cubans
are expecting some great things from the
American League pennant winners and
conQuerors OF the Chicago Cubs. They
will be very much disappointed If the
Athletics fail to strike their stride right
of the reel, which is very possible con-
sidering their long lay off and the I'M
favorable climatic conditions that exist
here for the American players.

NEW YORK. December 3.-An attempt

hockey games between Yale and Cornell
universities. The Chicago ice palace Is

agement has opened negotiations with the
handlers of the college sevens, and the
prospects of the series are promising
The probable dates are January 2, 3 and
4.
It will be remembered that Yale and
Cornell met on the ice of the Elysium
rink, Cleveland, last January The Blue
won two of the three games played The
first two went to the men Of New Ha-
ven by scores of 5 to and 4 to 2. The
last match was CornelIs by 3-to-1

Herman Schaefer made a great killing
on the worlds series. He was great

81 500 in bets that the American League
team would win. and then got odds
enough on the proposition that they
would take four straight so that If the
boys from Penntown had not skipped

after Johnson's scalp Sam and Joe are
booked for a return engagement in Bos-
ton the night of December 6. The match
is scheduled for twelve rounds. but with
two hard-h hitting coons Of near champion
ship caliber there is no telling what may
happen. Langford was given the deci-
sion on the occasion of their last meet
ing, but Jeanette was fighting hard at
the finish and was far from being a
beaten man.
While l have no reason to wish either
one or the other any hard luck, it will
be great relief to fight followers if
the bout results in a knockout. Johnson
can't, or rather won't, fight both. A
decisive win for either man would greatly
enhance his chances for crack at the
big spade who now carries the champion
ship banner. So readers, let us hope and
pray that there will be one less black
cloud in the heavyweight sky before the
week is over.

HAVANA. Cuba, December 3.-The De-
troit team is just little bit sore over the
treatment the men have received from
the Cuban umpires in the last TWO games
but they will continue to go through
the series with the don't care idea OF
what the decisions are.
However, nobody accuses the Cuban
umpires of deliberately robbing. I'M
portant decisions were from the head
and not from the heart. Umpire Pogo
has done the manly act by coming out
publicly and acknowledging that be made

Castillo muffed Sunday and which fell

a foul. He says that he honestly thought

that he erred, and in an open letter in
the press he apologies, but said that
he could not reverse his own decision
after il was once handed down.
Then that decision on strike ana pdii

Johnson'S Breakdown.

There is a story going the rounds to
the effect that Johnson has experienced
mental breakdown. Nervous prostra
ton is the polite term given the disorder
that the champion is supposed to be the
victim of. and many are the reasons as
signed as the cause thereof. If Jack has
really suffered an attack of nervousness
that approaches collapse, it is no more
than many familiar with his methods and
forms of dissipation have been looking
for. Like all negroes. the first big money
in sight turned his head. Johnson was
hardly cut out for the riotous living sys-
tenn, and in trying to go the white man 8
pace has rather Overdone the thing, and
charitably inclined blame the so-called
field handed Jack in the recent motor
contest, in which the demon driver used
some of the rough tactics that have
made his name a terror to rivals.
Leo Houck. the promising middleweight
boxer, who looks to me- TO have mighty
good chance for the championship, has
been forced to quit the game for the
present. Houck was unlucky enough to
break his hand in recent contest, and
just when he was coming down the line
and winning over every man he tackled.
A youngster who can take the measure
of Jimmy Gardner in six short rounds
must be there with the goods, and that
is what Leo already has accomplished.
For a newcomer in the game the Lam
caster lad has record to be proud of,
and / hope that the injury to his hand
will not keen him idle long,

ter. 1t would be crime to permit any
crooked work to interfere with the plans

than to his ability with the gloves. The
affair was unquestionably punk as a

Too much was expected from the men
and neither has sufficient class to entitle

date for the welterweight championship.
s man like Packey Mcfarland could
wade through all the welters in the game
in a few months. 1t is the one division
of pugilism that is sadly lacking in class.
