JOHNSON WILL FIGHT

London, June 13.-Jack Johnson
heavyweight champion of the world
entered Paddington Station, London
triumphantly last night, the vast
throngs shouting their welcome to
"Massa john" The police were utterly
unprepared for any such demonstration
as greeted the American negro.
Mrs Herman Oelrichs. who was at
the station meeting relatives, was
caught in the mob and almost knocked
down. but was finally rescued from the
crush.
Johnson bowed his acknowledgements
repeatedly and, Juggling a gramophone
funnel thought it were a precious
possession, shouldered his way through
the mob to an automobile followed by
his wife. The diamonds displayed by
the pugilist and his wife created a sen
sation. Johnson was cautious, how
ever. to put his hand over big soli-
taire fastened in his shirt front. The
pugilist wore a golden brown suit with
gloves and tie to match, and shining
patent leather shoes. The couple was
driven to a fiat in SALISBURY avenue.

Promoters in Scramble
for First Papke Battle
Thunderbolt Cables Paris, Fight Will
Prevent Him Boxing Near HereJuly4

Promoters with boxing clubs in the
vicinity of Chicago are having a fine
little scramble to land the first match
in which Bill Papke engages after his
return from abroad. Milwaukee wants
the Thunderbolt. Gary is after him, and
matchmakerS for clubs at Kenosha and
other places also are in the hunt.
1t looks as If Papke will be the big
plum in the matchmaking line when he
gets home, for Jack Johnson has gone
away from here and there is nobody of
consequence for him to fight anyway.
So Papke. by virtue of his defeats of
the Australian and English champions,
has become the big drawing card. When
he gets off the boat in New York there
will be dozens of promoters and match
makers in wait for him with sets of ar
dcles and fattering offers. And If Bill
manages himself al well as he fights he
ught to draw down a big bunch Of
DIN in his next start in America
The hope that Papke could battle
lear Chicago with Thompson or Kelly

NO MORE RACING
ON DIRT TRACKS
Chicago Motor Club to Aid
City Officials in Prevent
ing Future Events.

The death knell of motor car racing
over dirt tracks in the vicinity of Chi
cago was sounded yesterday when Of
fcials of the Chicago Motor club prom
ised to cooperate with Coroner Hoff-
man in preventing such contests in the
future. The decision to place dirt track
racing under the ban followed an ex
haustive investigation by the coroner's
jury in the circumstances that led to
the death of Marcel Basic, who was
killed in the first event on Saturday $
race card al Hawthorne track.
While the testimony of nine or ten
witnesses at the inquest developed the
fact that Basle's death was due to in
experience in handling a machine of
TOO narrow tread on a dirt track and
not to any carelessness on the part of
officials in charge of the meet. it was
decided the surer way of preventing
similar accidents would be to prohibit
them in the future. The recent track
meet was run by Homer c. George as
q private enterprise. and. while certain
officials of the Chicago Motor club as
sisted in handling the events, the or
ganizatfon had nothing whatever to do
with the promotion of the contests.

Magnificent defensive work behind
Ed Reulbach and his own steady slab
bling in the pinches enabled the Cubs
TO grab the third game of their series

6 to yesterday. and thereby establish
themselves In first place once more.
J. Tecumseh Sheckard, J. Faversham
Tinker j Prince Archer and ]. New
conner Doyle were some of the Cubs
who helped Reulbach with brilliant de-
fensive work. Their work would have
gone for nothing if the Cubs had not
taken full advantage of all the brea ks
in their favor and in this the stick
work of Schultz. Jimmy and Sheckard
was prominent. Not until the last half
of the ninth was the game decided, and
not until 1T looked a cinch IL would go
into extra innings.

services of j. Goodcatcher King, made

Zeider had four assists at short and
not one of them was easy. His best
play came in the sixth inning when

runs that would have tied the score as
Wild Conroy laced a hot one between

in a rainbow to Mullen just in time to
