Tomorrow night practically will
make or break Frank Moran or JIM
Coffey. so far as a meeting with Jess
Willard is concerned, for Jim meets
Frank az Madison Square Garden,
and the winner will be directly in
line for a title bout with the big cow
boy. George Engle has been coaching
Coffey for this particular fight. He
has impressed upon Cotfey that he
must take his time in this coming bat
tie. Jim's friends think that he burned
himself out with that early rush of his
in his last fight with the big blond.
He went at Moran hammer and tongS,
and when he was belted hard in the
middle and the jaw he had nothing
left.
Coffey fought faster than he ever
did in his life before. while Moran
coolly took what Jim had to give and
waited for the opening that finally
came Coffey showed that Engle'S
coaching had made a great improve
ment in his ring work the night he
fought Gunboat Smith. He was cool,
sure and determined and, above all, he
took his time and had sense enough 10
take advantage of the first bad break
the Gunner made. The result was that
Buckley's big gun was spiked in the
fourth round.
Jimmy Johnston will give Willie
Richie another chance TO stow Ted
Lewis away, providing Willie will not
ask for all the money in the world. The
Californian likes 10 get fat guarantee
every time he boxes. and the Hon.
Johnston hates the very word "guaran-
tee"
Il think that they'd go TO see those
two again" says Johnston. you know
a lot OF people thought that Willie WAS
coming fast enough 10 have stopped my
man in a round or two more" AHEM.

get going too late 10 do him any good
so far a. the verdict went. Jim Cor
bett and I we're talking about his finish
only Yesterday. jim told me that
warmed up, as Bob FitZsimmons used 10
be when he entered the ring. Willie is
naturally long distance man, and he
could improve his speed lot IN a
ten-round bout if he would only warm
up bit by boxing a few rounds with
his sparring mates. Johnston will see
Ritichie to-day and II he does not ask
FOR too large guarantee the bout will
take place the last part Of this month.

champions.
They have been hit easily, have
been wild and seemed to lack any
extra stuff when pushed into a cor
neT. Hendrix pitched seven innings
yesterday and was pitiable. He dealt
out eight passes and frequently was
forced to leave everything off the ball
in order to get it over the plate.
What this means was shown in one
inning when he stocked the bases
with franks, then had to lay one
over It was slammed for a triple and
three runs trundled home.
Unless there is a sudden and re-
markable improvement in the pitch
ing, the Cubs, when the season
starts, will be put in the ruck and
will have big handicap to pull down
In other departments the team is
competent. Despite the frequent
shifts around second base, the stuff
is present at the keystone, and that
will not be the weak portion of the
North Side aTmOr.
Today the Cub seconds depart from
Tampa, the first stop being at Albany,
Ga, tomorrow, where a game will be
played. The fiTsts, after finishing with
the Phils, will also hike in the diTec-
ton of home In New Orleans Fri
day and Sunday the Cubs will play
Cleveland, and the New Orleans team
will be met Saturday and Monday.
MUlIigan and Fischer were the only.
fellows doing any batting against the
Phils, who won, 8 to z. Mulligan
poled a single, double and homer and
Fischer was good for a double and
single. Bailey pitched a couple of
good innings for the Cubs.
Jess Willard is going to take it easy
until the middle of April, when he will
prepare for a circus trip of 40 weeks,
netting $1,000 a week. During that
time the champion will not defend
his title, but he declares he viii be
ready a0V time after the SaWdIISf sea-

hand because of the finger he busted
on Frank Moran, and is nursing the
digit carefully. There will be no per-
manent injury.
Commodore Barry bowIers won the
fiVe-man event at the American
Bowling congress-, Toledo, which
closed last night. Their count was
1905. The same team last year, as
the Barry KettleTs, won the title at
Peoria. This is the first time a five
man entrant has cashed twice.
