tended soon to start for the United
States, and that he would Immediately
get on the trail Of Willie Richie. There
should be no occasion for Welsh to
chase Richie for a match, as his posi-
ton In the boxing game is such that he
can demand match, providing the
American champion wants to engage In
battle for the worlds title. Welsh. as
champion Of Great Britain, has every
right to demand first chance for such
an encounter. He holds the champion
ship OF the British Isles. Canada and
Australia. and has victory over
Richie. having defeated the American
champion i'm twenty-round contest at

Richie taking his place. Therefore.
Weish's claim to worlds champion is
really better than Ritchies. but as
matters stand neither one is champion
Of the world, and the only way to settle
regular contest for the title. And such
a contest will be real international

WHY does Mike Gibbons SO persistently
refuse to match up with Jimmy Clabby!
Mike is talking now ahout going To Aus
tralia for some matches, WHICH II uue,
may be the means OF taking Ciappy Dack
to the antipodes. for James says he IL de-
termined TO force Gibbons into another
match over the long distance. A Bunat'
club has offered q biz purse for Gibbons
and Clabby. but Mike has steadily passed
IL over Manager Eddie Reddy might do
much worse than arrange match with
Clabby, for il is doubtful whether Mike
would draw as much money with any
other man as with Clabby. They are OF
practically the same size. both prefer
ring the 15O-pound mark, and both clever
at all styles Of boxing. 1t would be
scientific contest. but the ten-round route
Is too short for them to show any SUI
periorfty over one another. II Mike can
not see Buffalo as a place to hold the
bout probably he might favor Milwaukee,
providing there would be no objection
here to such a contest. Surely bout
between two experts like Clabby and Glib
bons would be preferable to one between
men OF ordinary ability. ii is match
that would attract Il lot OF attention
from the followers of the game, and
would be worth going to see.

BY n. C. BYRD.

The Georgetown foot ball management
may get the Carlisle Indian eleven here
next season to play on Thanksgiving day
instead of in October. as has been the
case in the last two years. An attempt
is now being made whereby it is hoped
arrangements will be completed for the
Indians to appear here on the last day of
the season.
Georgetown attempted to get the In
dams here last year as closing contest,
but found it to be impossible for the rea-
son that they We're scheduled to meet
Brown University. Now conditions are
different in that the Providence institu-
ton will refuse to schedule another con-
test with the Warner crew. Brown has
claimed that, notwithstanding the fact
that the game brought about $1,000.
into it's athletic Golfers, it was not worth
playing, and that another contest would
be substituted. Brown is now attempting
to get Michigan to play in Providence
next Thanksgiving.
Whether or not Brown succeeds In It's
attempt to get Michigan to play, 1T is
stated that it will drop the Indians. That
being the case, Warner will be left to
secure a Thanksgiving day game. Under
such conditions Georgetown should stand
a fair chance of getting the aboEgines
schedule. OF course, it is possible that
Warner may be able to schedule a better
money-making game for Thanksgiving
than Georgetown would be- and that is
one of the most important issues, in
which case the Blue and Gray would
probably have to look elsewhere for
team to fill in that date
Catholic Universitys qu:nt will meet
the Baltimore Medical College five to-
night The Brooklanders do not hesitate
to predict that they will g.-way with
the victory, and that by a f.-r margin.
The two teams have met once before this
season. The Baltimore team was the victor
in that contest by the bare margin of
points, the game being played on Its
home floor. This time the Catholic Uni
versity men will be in better condition.
and they figure that their work will be
generally improved. enough so to cause
them to get away with team which
won from them on the occasion Of the
first meeting.
