PLAYERS DEMAND PAY
FOR TRAINING SEASON

The major league magnates will soon
face new source of expense in the
spring. The new Players Protective as
ISOLATION plans to demand remunera-
ton for its members while getting into
shape for the season. The contracts
signed by the men heretofore have
called for pay days only after the sea-
son begins in April, while the players
have been engaged in strenuous work
in many instances since February. Of
course, legitimate expenses are taken
care of by the clubs. Still the men feel
they are entitled to consideration for
the six weeks or two months they are
getting into shape at the training
camps.
1t is believed that 5000 per month
will be asked as the proper amount to
recompense the men for their early
spring labors, although this feature will
be settled at conference to be held
later

Fighters Fail, But Johnson's
Conduct Gives Him Black Eve

boxing outlook is concerned is not
bothering Jack. Recent revelations
concerning his private life have a
suspicion that Johnson has had no
serious thought of re-entering the
ring, and that he would like nothing
better than to continue in his pres
ent environment.
The exposure made may make
Johnson feel like leaving this coun-
try for a while-that is. if he con-
tinues a free man--and. such being
the case, he might entertain one of
the offers placed before him some
time ago by the Paris promoters.
There is possibility. of course,
that even Paris may withdraw its
invitation to Johnson to appear in
French ring, and if this is done the
champion will be as completely
corralled. pugilistically. as steer
in a pen. for the chain of disbar-
ment will reach around the world
Even with matters as they are,
there is a good chance for the
white, heavies to engross public at
tention if they have sense enough
to rise to the occasion.
White hopes have bloomed and
white hopes have faded. but we still

So far nary a one of the hopes
seems to be displaying undue i'm
patience to get at one of the 9TH

case. of course, that the big Iowan
was held back by the deadlock with
Tom O'Rourke, but now that ami
cable relations have been re-estab-
lished. Palzer should be heard from.
Just what Jim Flynn's little game
is is not clear. A few months ago
he complained bitterly that he could
not get chance to show how good
he was. Now he fits from place to
place. and. when questioned about

PARIS DOES NOT
WANT PAPKE
AGAIN
Bv w. w. Naughton.

~ AN FRANCISCO. CAL. Nov.
- After Billy Papke defeated
Georges Carpenter in Paris,
the sports of this country expect
ed that the middleweight who used
to be known as the Illinois Thun-
derbolt would be in demand among
the French promoters, and that
probably Eddie McGoorty would
be sent for to give Papke battle
The cable brings the news that
the matchmakers of Paris have no
desire to handle Papke again, and
that in all probability Frank Klaus
and McGoorty will be signed for a
go in the French capital.
There are several versions in re-
gard to Papke's unpopularity. One
is that the French promoters have
decided to recognize the New York
commissions disbarment of the
Thunderbolt. and keep him out of
the ring Until the ban is removed in
New York.
When requested to take such ac-
ton at the time Papke refused to
box Frank Mantell in New York,
the promoters across the pond eX-
cused themselves from doing so on
the score that the Papke Carpen-
tier match had been extensively adj
vertised, and that to forbid it at
that late hour would entail loss
upon the promoters.
Another story is to the effect that
the Discrimination to have anything
further to do with Papke is due to
the fact that he smashed the Pari-
sian idol, Georges Carpenter. and
that the matchmakers feel it would
be an unpopular move to put Papke
in the ring again, In all probable
ity this version is unreliable The
French have shown themselves to
be imbued with sportsmanlike feel
ing, and would scarcely prove so
small minded as this story infers.

CAN FRANCISCO, Nov. r.
That's not sporting news; it's
police news So. claimed
copy reader on the sporting desk of
prominent paper once. when told
by his city editor to handle a story
having to do With the shooting of
one race track man by another.
And he was right When a sport
ing man, or a man from any other
walk in life, becomes entangled in
the meshes of the law, he is meat
for the reporter who keeps the pub
lie Informed in regard to crime and
its causes.
So much has been written about
Jack Johnson and his Iapses of late
that to add d jot Of criticism to
the things that are being said
would SAVIOR of turning the hose on
a drowned rodent But there is a
sporting angle to the Johnson case
and it invites discussion.
1t seems to the writer that john
son has been eliminated as thor
oughly from the pugilistic outlook
as though he had been signally de-
feated by some rival heavyweight
Even the regret that no one has
been found capable Of beating him
is expressed no more. The disgust
at his alleged misconduct is such
that no one wants to think about
him in any connection.
The last straw came when Hugh
Mcintosh, of Australia. cabled his
agent to call off negotiations with
Johnson at once. The action was so
spontaneous that one can readily
imagine how quickly feeling against
the big negro was aroused in Aus
tralia when news of his latest es-
capade reached there
Lost $4,000 in Australia.
If the deal with Mcintosh had
gone through, Johnson would have
received fifty thousand dollars. so
that it may be considered he has
been fined that amount already.
And that in itself is pretty severe
punishment
OF course, there will be no John
son-Langford fight now so far as
Australia is concerned, and there is
equally small chance of the pair
meeting in this country or England.
The writer is inclined to think,
however, that the tightening of the
coils around Johnson. 50 far as the

why Roger Bresnahan was deposed

In my opinion, the st. Louis

her in taking the severe methods
