TO FRAME DATES
FOR The TR0JANS
Williams Going South to Dis
cuss Spring Series With
Athletics and Browns.

AS President Charles WEIGH Murphy
Europe the ASK Of arranging a bunch
of Cub dates for exhibition purposes in
the spring may fall upon Charles Viii
liams, the Cub secretary. This is the
dope handed out by Charles himself
who yesterday figured he might take
a jaunt to Tampa, Fla, along about
The middle of January.
Before starting across the water
Murphy closed up a number of en-
gagements. Those cover only the trip
north, however. According to the
agreement under which the Cubs are
given free board at Tampa the base
ball association there reserves the
right to arrange games. All the Cubs
have to do is to meet the opponents
picked by the Tampa crowd. About
a dozen battles are called for under
the contract made by Murphy a year
ago.
The Tampa Midwinter Baseball asso-
citation lost about $1,000 on their ven
ture last spring, but this was account
ed for by the fact that a large sum
was spent in erecting a grandstand
and constructing a baseball diamond
Next spriag the Tampa citizens have
an excellent chance TO fill the strong
box with surplus coin, as a number of
excellent attractions can be arranged,
and IL is for the purpose of assisting
in this task that Williams proposes to
travel to the Peninsular state
A possibility is a Cub-Athletic series

'ISCH CA BIBBLE'
SAYS MCFARLAND
Packey, Britton and Boxing
Commission Arouse Ire Of
Boxing Followers.

Packey Mcfarland, Jack Britton and
the Wisconsin boxing commission were
not lauded to the skies in the usual
aftermath following the night before
| fight. Instead, the air was filled with
kicks" none of the principals escap-
| ing. The stockyards man was 'panned
| for refusing to get on the scales IN
public; Britton for his poor exhibition
and the "commish'' for not forcing
Mcfarland to obey the boxing laws
and weigh in public instead of before
one member of the boxing commission
few minutes before the mill started.
But all of them had their alibi, as
follows:
/ should worry about weighing in
now that the fight is over. l beat Brit
ton, so am MISUNDERSTANDING.
You cannot expect lightweight to
lace IL middleweight. for that was what
was up against. At that / believe l
deserved a draw=Britton.
We are going to take action against
Mcfarland at our next meeting. He
violated the rules. but he took advan-
tage of the fact that we were power
less to stop the fight and disappoint
the fans-Boxing Commission.
The biggest knock registered about
town was on the boxing rulers, al
though some of the things Britton's
admirers said about Packey would not
look good in print. The commissions
mistake was due to the fact that they
allowed the South Slider to violate
their rules by refusing to weigh in at
8 o'clock. Several days ago they an
nounced that unless Mcfarland was
within 10 rounds of Britton's weight
the fight would be called off, yet Pack
ey's weight was not announced, al
though the club stated that Britton
weighed under 135.
Some of the weight experts were of
the opinion that Mcfarland scaled
around 14S, which if true. made the
bout illegal and a violation of the law.
However, as no one knows the true
weights the commission is on the safe
side.
All in all it was a profitable night for
those concerned, the gate totalling
something like $4,000, of which Nc
Farland drew down $500 and. Britton
$4,000. In their last fight Packey got
$IO, 1000, but in view of the soft pick
ings last night even $4,000 seemed
like a Christmas gift.
