Comedians May Cavort
On Diamond

A riot of fun is promised if Kolb and
Dill, the popular mirth makers of Ellis
and Fillmore. see fit to accept a chal-
lenge heaped upon them yesterday By
Jim Mcintyre and Tom Heath of the
"cullud" team of Mcintyre and Heath
Mcintyre, acting as spokesman for his
bevy Of fun makers, dares his German
rivals to meet him on the field of swat
and slug and to play baseball for blood
or marbles in the cause of sweet
charity.
Mcintyre and Heath's company have
in their ranks a ball team which in
their widest fancy they believe the
equal of the Giants or even the Seals,
and with no fear in their hearts they
are willing to go forth to combat with
the Kolb- Dillians. Imagine the black
face comedians in the full regalia OF
their royal robes parading around the
shortstops territory. and the unctious
Hebrew, Julian Rose, covering first
base, and then imagine the lean and
gawky Kolb and the fat and chubby
Din cavorting around third base and
right field.
If the latter accept, and it is whis-
pered that they are hungry for the
chance to redeem the German honor,
there will be joy a-plenty, and the
actors fund. or 1t is suggested the
Jack Haverly widow fund, will be en-
riched in consequence. Let us hear
from Kolb and Dill now.

JEFF AND JACK
WILL SWAP BLOWS
INSAN FRANCISCO
Tex Richard and Johnny Herget
Are Ready 10 Come 10 an
Understanding
"NO Reason Why Battle Can't
Take Place Here" Says the
Nevada Promoter

Unless something unforeseen hap
pens within the next few days, JET
fries and johnson will battle for the
heavy weight championship right in
the heart OF San Francisco on the
fourth of July. Tex Richard has made
up his mind that this city Is the place
for the greatest of all ring struggles,
and he has also made his peace with
Supervisor John L. Herget. the man
who declared that mo outsider could
promote the battle within the limits
OF San Francisco.
There Is no reason why the night
can not be held in San Francisco. 1t
looks like the best place to me"
Richard uttered these words last
night, but further than that he refused
10 commit himself. He would not
deny nor affirm any report as to a
conference with anybody. But away
down low it is known that Richard
and Herget understand each other The
wide breach which has separated them
since the supervisor declared himself
exclusively in The Call some weeks ago
has been bridSed a truce has been
declared and soon the official announce
ment will be spread broadcast that
San Francisco has landed the plum.
Both Richard and Herget have been
doing a lot of deep thinking and cal
culating during the last few days Both
are ShreWd. wise businessmen. awake to
every advantage and every opportunity
Each fully realized that feud between
them would do no good for the city or
for the big match, and each was easily
convinced that quick action must be
taken.
Drrior oil tho v4-aaI~s Oe y.vraDrTircs
and arguing Eddie Graney has been
going around. boosting Richard and
telling his friends that the Nevada pro-
moter would eventually come out all
right. Graney and Richard are very
close and the pair were in conference
nearly all Sunday night and a great
part of the day yesterday But Graney
remained mum.
1t is whispered along the line that
Herget, after weighing the matter in
his own mind, came to the conclusion
that the fight would be a great boost
for San Francisco and that Richard
should be encouraged instead of dis
cOuraged. Herget is an old time poll
tician and a man alive to every i'm
portant event and the chances are that
ne put two and two together and the
answer was "Rickard."
In the meantime the Nevada promoter
was carefully looking the field over.
Like Herget. he's something of a
shrewd politician and an all around
businessman himself and the more he
thought the more he realized that he
must make his peace with the chairman
of the police committee of the local
board of supervisors. This is the key
to the situation.
1t is not likely that the Official an
nouncement will be made for many
days to come. Richard stated last
night that he would remain here for at
least 10 days. He will attend the fight
this afternoon and tomorrow he intends
to look over all the available sites in
the vicinity. This. however. will be bur
mere matter of form. His mind IS
made up.

CruSher From Mayor
Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

ALAMEDA, Feb. 21.-Councilman
John Walker, fight promoter, and the
principal owner of the Alameda ath-
letic club, is to be denied any further
permits to conduct boxing exhibitions
in this city. according to Mayor w. H
Noy, President Z. B. Bullock of the
city council and several of the coun-
cilmen.
President Bullock, who is also chair
man of the finance committee of the
council, says that Walkers club has
failed to pay the city $3.50 for five box
ing exhibitions held under the auspices
of the club and that four of the exhi-
tions were pulled off without even the
securing of a permit, as required by
ordinance There is d license of $50
charged for every boxing exhibition
conducted where an admission fee is
exacted.
Councilman Walker had made partial
arrangements with the promoters of
the Nelson Wolgast fight to stage that
battle in Alameda. When Mayor Noy
heard of it he declared that he would
not permit the fight to take place in
this city The stand taken by the chief
executive of the municipality forced
walker to drop negotiations with the
promoters of the Nelson w olgast
battle.
walker will not be given another
fight permit If l can prevent it, said
President Bullock" and he will be
asked to pay the city $3.50 which his
club owes for five exhibitions it gave
at which an admission was charged
The mayor and a majority of the coun-
ell believe as l do in this matter and
it appears that Walkers club will
conduct no more boxing shows in Ala
