WOLGAST STILL
AF TER CD WITH
P. M'FAR[AND
,Ex-Champion Says He Will Fight
Packey at Catchweights-Thiry
Willing to Sign.
By Eddie Geiger.

NHICAGO, ILL, Jan. 3O.-Adolph
Wolgast still harbors a desire
to get Packey Mcfarland into
a 16-foot ring. AID let this be known
yesterday when he told his manager,
Tom Jones, to grant any concession
asked in order to get the stockyards
wonder" to sign up for a ten round
set-to.
These were Wolgast's instructions
to Jones and then Tom made this
announcement,
II want the public to know that
AID Wolgast is now ready to fight
Packey Mcfarland under any condi-
lions. To prove to him that we are
on the level with the offer we will
affix our signature to a contract al
lowing Packey to come in at catch
weights, and we will give him the
privilege of cutting the house any
way he sees fit. The only thing we
demand of Mcfarland is that he post
81 500 with any reliable person to
guarantee that he will go through
with the contest, and he must sign
away his privilege OF sueing for the
forfeit in case he changes his mind
about fighting"
That Jones does not think much Of
Netherlands contracts to fight was
shown when he offered to wager
500 that Mcfarland calls off his
match with Gibbons. Jones asserts
that Packey ran out of three fights
with Wolgast because he believes
AID was too tough for him. Since
Gibbons knocked out McAllister I'll
bet the stockyards man has been
raking his memory for an excuse to
call off the contest. He will find
one, too, before another two weeks
pass"
But Emil Thirty, speaking for Nc
Farland, says Jones is bluffing. IN
take all the money he has to offer
ON these conditions" said Emil. Il
talked with Mcfarland and he is
tickled to death with the match"
AS to fighting Wolgast, Thirty says
he will sign up at once. but he does
not think Jones is sincere.

No H0LDOUTS
EXPECTED IN
RANKS Of VOLS
President Shropshire Does Not
Expect Any Trouble in Signing
Players for Coming Season,

~ ASHVILLE, Jan. 30.-Whether
M or not there will be any hold
outs among the Vols will be de-
cided within the next two or three
weeks, when the contracts of the To-
cal players mailed out a few days
ago are expected to be received.
President Shropshire stated this
morning that the registry cards show
ing that the contracts were received
nv those to whom they were address,
cd have started coming in. and that
nearly all of the players have re-
ceived their contracts. The ensuing
week will doubtless find a number of
signed contracts in the presidents
office.
THE local moguls are expecting no
l holdouts in the ranks of the Vols
his season. The salary question
among the players will not be one to
cause any dissatisfaction. Practically
every player who received contract
this season is known to be anxious to
play with the Vols, and the outlook
now is that the local team will be
one of the smoothest working ma
chimes in the league.
DRESIDENT SHROPSHIRE, of the
L Vols, is in receipt of letters from
President Kavanaugh, of the South
ern League, in which the league pres
dent expressed his satisfaction over
the recent amicable adjustment OF
the controversy which threatened the
hest interests of the local club. Pres
dent Kavanaugh extended his best
wishes for long and successful reign
for President Shropshire as head OF
the local baseball association, and
predicted that the Vols would make a
GOOD showing under the new ar
rangement.
DRESIDENT KAVANAUGH has
been notified by w. G. Hirsig OF
the sale of his took in the Nashville
Baseball Association to Mr.. Shrop-
shire Mr. Hirsig, since retiring as
president, has absolutely turned over
everything to- the new officials, and

Not interested in Reserve Clause

Fans Like TO See Good Baseball

the club that would pay the most for
or two wealthy clubs in each league
would have all the stars there were.
Then, of course, there would be no
pennant race.
The reserve clause enables Brook
Ign to hold Nap Rucker as long as
Brooklyn wants him. 1t enables De-
troit to hold Ty Cobb. 1t enables the
wretched Cardinals to cling to Ko-
netchy. and the equally wretched
Reds to hang on to Hoblitzell-al-
ways granting that none of these
gents jump to the Feds, who are not
respecting the reserve clause.
And that is the only way to make
a pennant race. Otherwise, some
financially feeble club might pick up a
star before he was developed, spend
three years making him into a Cobb
or a Jackson-and then see him auc-
ton himself off to a club that could
overbid the club that gave him his
start.
Manifestly. that wouldn't be right
Also, it would bust up baseball.
PUT that is exactly the sort of stuff
- we weren't going to say any more
about, except on this oncefor all
basis.
We repeat, the average fan likes to
see a good, hot game of baseball, shot
through with some star performances
by star players, with the home team
in front at the end.
Give him a winning team and you
can feed all your contracts, and re-
serve clauses, and slavery articles to
the paper mill
And so (barring something unex-
pected from the Feds) we are off the
reserve clause for this year.
