Willard and Jim Coffey are to meet
in a ten round argument at the
Brighton Beach arena on Labor Day.
The horde Of managers and promoters
entangled in guiding Wizards at
fairs have been dickering with Pro-
moter Harry Pollok and Coffey's man
ager, Billy Gibson, and have about
agreed on terms. Coffey is recuper-
ating following his andbusting con-
test with Jim Flynn and it is under
stood he won't battle before the
Labor Day date so as to be certain
that he won't run chance Of losing
and thereby kill himself as an OPP
ponent for Johnson's conqueror.
A Willard-C offey bout -espec-
tally ten round affair-seems nigh
ty futile. That the champion will
win seems certainty. Coffey's
showing against the battle-scarred
veteran, Jim Flynn, showed that he
is, no match, at least now, for the
title holder. Willard is heavier, tai
Ter, a harder puncher and able to
take more punishment that the big
Irish battler. In his clash with
Flynn, Coffey gave indications of
having a "glass" jaw. When Flynn
caught him with swing Coffey zig
Jagged around and appeared con-
siderably dazed. Flynn's poor judg-
ment of distance is all that saved
Coffey from a knockout. Flynn's
swings were wild. Had he been
able to connect second time Coffey
likely would have gone down for
keeps.
Willard would be twenty to one
shot to win from Coffey. But the
promoters have to eat-as do the,
managers-and the public will un-
doubtedly flock to the bout by the
thousands.

MISTAKE IS REMEMBERED
BY BARRY FAIRS.


4 Fred Merkle pulled a boner' that
cost the New York Giants pennant.
This was years ago but the fans have
never forgotten. "Bonehead" is
hurled at him to this day. Laughing
Larry" Doyle was guilty of a thought
less act fully as bad or worse than
Merkles couple of weeks ago but al
forgotten. 1t came in game that
didn't particularly count. Which
causes one to think that, after all, it
isn't what you do that hurts-it is
when you do it.
Merkle's "bone," as is we'll known,
was in forgetting to- touch second in
order to complete play. Doyle's
stunt was an ever more glazing piece
of stupidness. With a man on third
and one out Doyle hit long fly to
the outfeld in a recent series at
Boston. The man on third-Burns-
dashed for the plate after the ball
was caught. The ball was hit so far
that he was sure to score. Doyle
rounded first just as the ball was
thrown in from the Outfeld. The
ball came directly at him and he
reached out and caught it, tossing
it to a Boston player. Immediately
protest was lodged with the UNI
pire, who thereupon called Burns out
because Doyle had interfered with
the ball.
Doyle, who has been one of the
National league stars for years, had
no alibi. He frankly admitted he
had been guilty Of "boner." His
only explanation was that he thought
as Burns had crossed the plate the
play was completed and that his
touching the ball would have no
effect
Had Doyle's play been made in a
worlds series game, as Merkle's~Was,
he would have marked for the re-
mainder Of his baseball career. He
would have taken Merkle's place in
the gallery of bonehead plays. But
as it was done in just an ordinary
everyday battle, it quickly slips from
sight-and thought.

they are anxious to assist financially
