C. TO MEET
WELSH !

San Francisco, Aug. 6.-The next
lightweight match with a title of the
! ring at stake will be for the cham
pionship of the world. Willie Richie,
the American champion, made this a
certainty yesterday when he agreed
to meet Freddie Welsh, champion OF
Great Britain and Australia, in Van
, couver, B. c., for twenty rounds on
September l.
Welsh already has one decision over
Richie awarded in November, 1911.
when Richie substituted at the
eleventh hour for Ad Wolgast, then
appendicitis on the eve of a match
with Welsh. Richie had never fought
a long distance bout and went into
the match unframed. His surprising
showing won him later his rance at
the title from Wolgast.
Articles stipulating the weight and
division Of the purse will be signed
in ten days or a fortnight as soon
as Richie returns from a hunting
trip into the mountains east of Sall-
mas. whittier he left with his trainer,
Harry Foley.
If Ritchie wins at Vancouver his
next battle probably will be Leach
Cross in New York for ten rounds.
TENDER. His best offer. he said today,
named Cross, though others nae been
suggested.
Except by a knockout, the title
could not be in peril in 2 match with
Cross and accordingly l2itchie feels
fairly confident that On Thanksgiving
day he will return to San Francisco
for twenty rounds either with Har-
lem Tommy Murphy or Ad Wolsast.

Winnipeg public during his short
term as manager Of the Maroons.
when he broke their long losing
streak and started them on the up-

Although apprised by the National
Commission of its decision against the
claims OF the st. Paul American assoc
citation club to Jones services, the To-
ca! directors have taken no action in
the matter n are leaving the whole
question open until President Pulford
returns to the city next Saturday.

into Jones shoes has been very salts

well with the rest of the players and
the capture of three games in a row
from the league leaders has impressed

be anxious to rejoin the team.

AT MEET

Kalamazoo. Mich, Aug. s.-when
Peter Volo driven by Murphy won the
two-year-old trotting division Of the
Horseman Futurity. and the purse of
$4,000 at yesterday afternoons grand
circuit meet he established a e
worlds record for two-year-o!d trot-
ters. going the first mile in 2:O9. The
distance was made with ease, Murphy
holding the colt back as he came down
the stretch. The former record of
2:09 1-2 was made by Justice Brooks
two years ago In the second heat
Peter Volo equalled the former
record.
Etawah had an easy time in taking
the three-year-old trot for the Horse
man Futurity $4,000 purse. At no
time was the Geers entry in danger,
leading the field in every heat. Peter
Johnson, of which much was expected
IN this event, drew the nag in the
last heat. His poor showing IL be-
heved to be due to Illness.

This season Callahan has used young
Schalk in practically every game. al
though such competent backstops as
Kuhn and Easterly are or the Comis-
key payroll. In IS games he has
made 80 hits, scored 27 runs, and
what is very unusual for a catcher has
stolen q bases!
Figures fail to disclose the true
worth of this %youngster. He has the
head of a Killing and his Archerlike
arm is the terror of all base s%tealers.
He is very sure on fouls n fearless

awaits Ray Schalk in baseball, and
even now he is considered by many a
competent critic to be the ranking
