bravely decided to tell the truth.

"All right" grunted Carr, eff

Ballingame said nothing but
his head was full of schemes and
deceased GRANDMOTHER had no

MATCH NOT DECIDED.

SAN FRANCISCO-The pro-
posed return match between
frankie Burns of Oakland and
Jack Britton, the Chicago light
weight, who earned a decision
over Pal Moore of Philadelphia
here Tuesday night is up in the
air today as result of Burns
refusal to meet Britton over less
than 20 round distance. Since
Britton defeated him, Burns has
been clamoring for a return
match but he now demands a 20
round fight or nothing doing.
Rritton and Burns may be
brought together for a 20 round
bout in San Francisco later this
month.

the Northwest.
Long is willing to sell Sutor, of
course, but he wants $4,000,
which McCredie thinks is too
much.
Benny Henderson has not been
behaving himself the last few
days, McCredie says. In fact it is
said that Henderson has taken
such poor care of himself lately
that he is unable to pitch at
all. This year when McCredie
hired Henderson he inserted a
clause in the contract which pro-
vided that Henderson was to re-
ceive certain bonus If he MAIN
tanned firm seat on the sprink-
ling cart throughout the season.
