HOPPE GIVES UP
A LOSING Fight

New York, Jan. 6.--After fighting for
more than two years to have the rules
governing champions billiard matches
revised to suit his own particular no.
tions, Willie Hoppe, the youthful ex-
pert, capitulated to the so-called trust
and, with Ora Morningstar, another in
surgent signed a contract pledgfng
himself to renew the old allegiance
with the powers that be. This removes
the last bar in the way OF a match be-
tween Hoppe and Calvin Demarest, the
winner of the recent tournament for
the 1872 balsline title.
That the very friendliest, relations
do not exist between Hoppe and the
rest of the experts is certain, how
ever. The Roomkeepers' association,
under the auspices of which the recent
tournament was held, is still sore on
Hoppe for refusing to make the step
necessary to admission to the contest
until after 1t Is all over. With
Hoppe playing, the promoters declare.
the receipts would have been even
greater than ever they were and the
interest would have been more intense.
So though he has given up his fight,
Hoppe will find himself more or less
Ma NAAS C0SSA0G AOE a year more. HE
will play match with Morningstar to
determine which shall have the privi-
lege of issuing the next challenge to
the champion, but even there Hoppe
will find himself baked. Demarest has
already agreed to meet Harry Cline
for the title at Chicago on Feb. /, 81
and 3. And when the word was passed
that Hoppe was weakening and would
probably be in line within a few days
Albert Cutler, the Boston player, i'm
mediately shot in challenge to meet
the winner of the Demarest Cline
match.
Under the rules the winner of the
match between Demarest and Cline
will have sixty days In which to make
up his mind to play Cutler, should he
succeed in defeating Cline. This would
put off any match with Hoppe until
away along In June. 1t is hardly prob
able that game at that time Of the
year would appeal to either the players
or the promoters SO 1t is almost GER
tainity that Hoppe will be forced to
wait until the next fall at the earliest

The Glove Hatcher game was hard
fought, the Hatchers winning with
only four men. At the final whistle
the board showed III to IL. 1t was de-
cided that the next basket thrown
would determine the winner. The
Hatchers were lucky and LIGHTHOUSE

OF the Hatchers, piled UP 8 scores
LIGHTHOUSE s. Rubel ana Young also
played well. Brophy made 6 scores
for the Globes. A. G. Watkin made 4
points, p. Peterson /. This was the
climax Of the evening and was loudly

Big Fight CAN BE
HELD IN FRISCO
INFLUENCES TN POWER WILL
FIX LAW TO ACCOMMODATE
JEFF AND JACK.

San Francisco, Jan, 6.-Authorities
on the question of the legality of hold
ing prize fights in California gave
valid reasons today why the Jeffries-
Johnson fight may be pulled off in San
Francisco proper although no finish
battles have been held in this city
since the days of the historic Califor-
MIA club, nearly twenty years ago.
This is the situation in a nutshell:
The laws of California say that
glove contests may be licensed, but
they must be limited. 1t is possible
to pull off fight of s99 rounds, but
not finish engagement. Some twenty
years ago this city passed a law
limiting fights to twenty-five rounds.
and this law has been in effect for
more than ten years.
A new board of supervisors will
take the oath of office in the next few
days. 1t is understood all along the
line thar San Francisco will be
turned wide open" One of the most
influential members of the board is
John l.. Herget, known twenty years
ago as Young MITCHELL" one of the
greatest of middleweight fighters.
He is to be the chairman of the
committee that will pass on prize
fights, and, according to the best in
formation, Herget and his followers
will amend the present law, and thus
make forty -five-round fights possible
within the city proper.

u q cnance "a Dernarest.

for cnance at Demarest
There isn't the slightest doubt that
championship contest between Dem
Arrest and Hoppe would be the biggest
crowd that attended game OF bill
liards Hoppe always has been one of
the most popular players with the bill
liard-loving public that ever made a
carom, and Demarest is rot far behind
in public favor. A $4,000 gate esti-
mate is declared to be a conservative
one, and IL ig expected that If ever
they do meet, the betting on the game
or games will mount up to very close
to s1,0O0,000
Edward Graney, the Frisco fight pro-
moter, is directly responsible for
Hopp q surrender. Graney has for a
long time been anxious to see Hoppe
play Demarest and 1T was through his
endeavors that Willie was finally per-
suaded to visit the Brunswick Bake
Collender company's Office to patch
things up.

BISMARCK PLANS
Tennis TOURNEY
CAPITAL CITY CLUB WILL SEND
DELEGATION TO GRAND
FoRkS--ANNuAL
TOURNAMENT
DATES.

Bismarck, N. D., Jan. 6.--The mem
bers Of the Capital City Tennis club
have received invitations from the
North Dakota State Tennis associa-
ton to attend a reception and ball to
De given in Grand Forks Jan. 81. The
Grand Forks people have planned to
make this the most important social
event ever given in that city.
The arrangements for the state tour
nament, to be held in Grand Forks
next July, are already made, and
among the players who have promised
to be present are Mclaughlin and
Long, who represented the United
States in the matches for the cham
pionshtp OF the world at Australia;
Bundy, the McQuiston brothers, cham
pions of Mexico; Sinsbaugh, Gardner,
and many others prominent In western
tennis circles. They expect about 800
entries for this tournament, which
will commence on July is.
The Capital City Tennis club of
Bismarck will hold Its annual tourna-
ment the week previous to the Grand
Forks affair, and an effort is being
made to get some of the international
stars to play here. The local club has
already received acceptances from
Branson, the champion of South Da-
kota; Oldfather, the 1908 champion of
North Dakota; Butler Lamb, 1909
champion of North Dakota; F. w.
Wilson, winner of the Red River In
ternational tournament; DR.. Bates,
president Of the North Dakota State
Tennis association and runner-up of
the state championship match az
Grand Forks this last summer, and
several others Of equal prominence in
tennis circles.
The activity of the Bismarck club
in the tennis affairs of the state has
resulted in the suggestion from the
Grand Forks club that the state cham
pionships be held alternate years in
Grand Forks and Bismarck.
