Two stories are circulating regard
ing the Jack Johnson:Jim Flynn fight
tomorrow.
One Is that Johnson has agreed TO
take the punch" and let slip his title,
and the other that he can and VIII
win in any round he sees fit.
Absence of betting and the long
odds stories that Johnson isn't doing
mich real training, give rise to the
first story The latter is the opinion
OF men who believe the fight Is hon
est and who always bet on form.
In support OF the fake" story IL Is
said that men close TO Johnson ana
Flynn, will gather up all the long shot
bets lying around and reap fortune
when Flynn is permitted TO put over
the knockout.
FLYNN can't hit Johnson In 20
foot ring with a handful of nickels, ub-
less Jack lets him." is the terse way
one fight follower expresses the dif-
ference between the men.
IL is true that there Is always talk
OF dishonesty before big battles. NJ

George Little, ex-manager OF Johnson,
appeared with "the papers" and said
Johnson had agreed to lay down In
the twelfth round for money already
paid. and that he had bet his end oil

Little believed this TO the extent OF
betting $4,000 on Jeffries.
Men who believe the fight Is plan

II will be- simple for Johnson to ex

life he has led since defeating JET

Against this. men who know the

FRANKS WITH PITCHERS

Rubber Loses His Wind Chasing

KNAPP is UNFORTUNATE
BY RALPH L. YONKER.

(. Freakish fate was on rampage
yesterday and played some queer
pranks on fortunate and unfortunate
pitchers.
Four OF them were used In the
Tiger-N contest and four OF them
were made to suffer and enjoy enough
peculiar stun TO last the better part
OF a season.
Such minor things as Joe Lake
getting an assist witn his feet when
he kicked Turner's sacrifice into
Moriarty's hands in the second were
made 10 appear as regular as a pref
eel In comparison with some OF the
other stunts that Fortune SWlled.
Since he has been blowing the last
few games in the ninth inning, Jean
Dubuc has sworn that the next time
he were given chance to pitch he
would show that he was again nine
inning pitcher. Fate butted in and
showed Jean how puny were his as
sertions In comparison TO the power
of destiny. Fate showed Jean into a
game after 2-3 innings had been
PLAYED and showed him out at the end
OF the ninth. he having pitched only
Z 1-3 frames.
During the time that Dubuc was
working he pitched the finest kind of
ball. That slow one of his was work
ing well and he had plenty OF speed
and curve enough to be effective His
speed and curves are used simply TO
protect his slow ball and he had
enough for that yesterday, according
10 the demonstration furnished by the
Nap hitters.
Two hits were all the Maps got on
John. both OF which were entirely use
less except in boosting batting aver
ages Jackson got a single TO left the
first time he faced John. but there
were two out and he got no further
than first. Griggs singled TO right IN
the ninth but died AT first also.
Dubuc's only weakness came In the
fifth when he passed Griggs and Birm-
ingham in succession. A couple OF In
field hits, one OF which was sacrifice
and the other a plain, ungarnished
out, gave the Maps the opportunity OF
showing across the only run scored on
Dubuc.
Dubuc has been complaining that
his arm was bad and he has been hay
ing II rubbed for the first time, Evil
dently-but you can draw your own
conclusions.

His single in the seventh placed him
In position to score another when
Graney went up.
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1912-07-03

In addition to Graneys error In the
seventh, there was an expensive one
by Olson. Cobb hit him grounder
over second. He made a pretty stop,
but in his anxiety to get Ty at first
threw to the stands, letting In two
runs. This didn't aid Krapp's equa-
nimity.

Friend Baskette, who came to the
rescue Of Knapp in the ninth, when
two runs were needed by the Tigers
TO tie and two men were on, had a
peculiar piece of fortune, also.
Bush was on third and there was
only one out with Moriarty at bat.
Baskette stepped into the box and
pitched one ball. George met II right
on the proboscis and II skinned over
short into lett field while Bush trotted
home and Crawford got to the plate
In time enough to avoid a close de-
cision. Graney had the ball at the
pan shortly after Sam arrived there
but not soon enough 10 cause any
doubt as TO the Eligibility OF the score.
According TO the strict interpreta-
ton OF the rules Baskette must be
charged with a defeat and Dubuc
credited with a victory
Dubuc could hardly have a better
earned victory and Baskette hardly a
less merited defeat Sent in with two
men on, one out and only one run
needed 10 tie. IL seems entirely unfair
to credit him with defeat because
he happeend TO be hit once. On the
other hand Lake can thank Dubuc for
letting him out of a bad defeat
In addition TO Dubuc's fine pitching
his work al the bat was nothing to be
sneeped at. He Won his own game

While the contest yesterday wasn't
officially won until Crawford had
scored on Moriartys single in the
ninth il was virtually settled in the
seventh inning, when an admiXture OF
passes. hits and errors furnished a
run-making combination OF terrifying
proportions.
Furthermore, ii did more than that.
II tired out the already hard worked
Knapp 50 that he was just about all
in Just why Davis didn't send In
somebody 20 relieve him is known
only to Davis. II is true that after
the eventful seventh, Knapp forced
the lower end of the batting order to
roll out TO the infeld. but the upper
end came back strong in the ninth.
To Mr. Graney can be laid a large
share OF the responsibility of yester=
days defeat. Louden had singled.
Stanage had flied out and Dubuc had
singled when Witt lined TO Graney. IL
was one OF those liners that the field
er comes In OH and the scorers start
to pencil as an out when suddenly the
fielder lets IL slip from his hands
These chances don't look hard, but
they must be difficult for they are
often lost.
