BY YE SPORTE EDITOR

We are a little dubious about letting this thing get into print. It was handed in by the press agent for the F,lkS High links, who evidently does not know that there is an intangible but none the less horrific bar sinister across the escutcheOn of the good old fight game in Arizona.
 A prosecuting attorney assured us several years ago that there is no spec fife law against boxing bouts, but that anybody can prefer a disturbing the peace charge and have pugilistic exhibition pulled. In the face of this eX- planation, he demands publication of his story. We figure this Way-in mercy to Kid Trincano, it were better to give the matter some publicity, and perhaps influence public spirited citizens to in- terVene to save Trin. You know-the press agent knoWs-the promoters know-in fact we all know that this is a very unevenly matched bout. As well put Freddy Welsh in the same ring as Jess Willard as to match Trincano with Battling LipsOhn.
 Again, we hesitate apout printing the story. Our secret heart quiVers with pity. But such is the force of circum- stances, We are constrained to let 'er go. Judge for yourselves; here is the narrative:
 Trained to the minute and ready for the signal of the referee to begin the fray, Kid Trincano and Battling Lip sohn, each champion of his class in Arizona, took things easy in their train ing quarters yesterday.
 "Lipsohn did twenty five miles on the road to keep his wind in shape, and Trincano sk"ped the rope for three hours to prevent the edge wearing off. Today the will do shadow boxing and few rounds with sparring partners for the benefit of admirers.
 'Trincano and Lipsohn clash tonight in a twenty-round match at the annual High links of Phoenix Lodge, No 335, B. F. O. Elks Those on the inside eX- pect a bitter fight. In a former en- counter the decision was a draw. Lip sOhn losing for throwing his opponent over his head, and TriucaEo for hitting below the knees.
 At their quarters last night the com bined weight of the two battlers was given at about 400 pounds of which Lipsohn was credited with little over 9 per cent Each is supremelv con- fident of scoring a knockout, and prom ises action from the tap of the gong.
 Local Elks and visiting friends look forward to a big night this evening. In addition to the main event there will be several preliminaries, including

 SAN FRANCISCO. January 23- The rule recently adopted by the Pa cific Coast league that at least four players who have had less than full season in the majors or Class A leagues must be carried by each club in the circuit is creating considerable discussion but it is not expected that any conclusion will be reached until the scheme has been tried out for at least a year
 J. Cal Ewing. former owner of the San Francisco club. who is sponsor of the idea has figured that. by this means new talent will be encouraged and developed, thus assuring good players coming on each year. Under the circumstances, the preliminary spring training season will offer base ball enthusiasts a record number of new faces in the early tryouts.
 With a limit of eighteen players on each club. the inclusion of the four veterans means that veteran play CTS will have to give way to the young CT men. Advocates of the rule claim that managers instead of experiment. ing with would be come backs" among the veterans will have to bend their energies toward developing the recruits which they say will put more speed and enthusiasm into the play. In the estimation of Clarence J. Grif- fin, noted California tennis player, William Johnston. former national sin gles champion, is the greatest tennis player America has produced.

 "Johnston's game is based upon more sterling principles, says Griffin. than the play of his two principal rivals, Mclaughlin and Williams. He is more consistent. He depends less upon spectacular features that are apt to leave a man with the gathering yearA Johnston should retain his place among the great players of the game for many years, like Larned did. Mclaughlin relies too much upon mere speed and power, qualities he is bound to lose early. Johnston is probably the most perfect tennis player the world has seen-not even excluding Anthony Wilding."
 According to Griffin. a player must show championship possibilities be- fore rounding twenty years of age, otherwise he never will achieve the highest pinnacle in the game.
