intmated here at the state Capitol
that the Minnesota safety commits

made public, but other state officials
made interesting comments.

Sieberlich, a member of the state

Il cannot see how n state license
can be granted for this fight" said
Ambrose Tighe. attorney for the
safety commission. "An outsider is
not permitted to put on a boxing
show in the Twin Cities, and al
though I understand that Colonel
Miller will operate through the local
boxing club, l do not believe that
such camouflage will be allowed"
Colonel j. c. Miller declared the
contest would not be a brutal affair,

Members of the anti-fght delega-

Barry's Team Disbands;
Too Much Petty Jealousy

Boston, Mass, April 24.-The Bos-
ton Navy Yard team of erstwhile Red
Sox and Braves stars, under the
leadership of Jack Barry, former
Red Sox manager, has found that
baseball troubles can even creep be-
hind the walls of the Navy Yard.
Less than four hours before the
Barry sailor stars were to play the
Boston College yesterday word
came from the Navy Yard that the
team had been ordered disbanded and
that the game would have to be can
celed. No reasons were given.
1t is said unofficially that Admiral
Wood, in charge of the First Naval
District, is not in favor of service
men competing with civilian mines.
Barry's sailors had q full schedule
which included most of the. fast COL
lege contingents in the country. 1t
is known that there has been some
feeling among the enlisted personnel
of the Navy that the baseball stars
dropped into easy berths. Almost
all of the major leaguefs were made
chief yeomen and have been doing
work which is done by young women
enlisted as yeomen.
Even the bali players themselves
have been feeling that clerical naval
work was not just what they wanted
and rabbit" Maranville," the for
mer fleety shortstop of the Braves,
quit the reserve force to take his
chances with the first-class seamen.
He is now on the high seas. other
ball players will probably follow
suit. They include: Ernie Shore,
Mike McNally, Herb Pennock, Del
Gamer. Jim, Cooney, Chick Shorten.

and Henry Schneider of the Braves.

MATT HINKEL HAS

OFFER FOR BOUT
New Orleans Backers Have
Cash, Place and Oppor-
tunity For Finish Fight

If Jess Willard and Fred Fulton
are really in earnest about deciding
the worlds heavyweight champion
ship, they can have a battle at New
Orleans and be guaranteed S1O5,OOO.
If they are taking and merely wish
to make a pile, they may pass up the
New Orleans offer and spar ten
rounds somewhere else. In the latter
case, boxing will be struck a heavy
blow that it will hardly recover in
the lifetime of the present day fans.
This is the opinion of Matt Hinkel,
the Cleveland sportsman. With
Dominick Tortorich, the New Orleans
promoter, he is willing to guaran-
tee S105,000 for the twenty-round
bout
May Go TO Rockford
Col. Joe Miller is waiting final
word from the Minnesota state box
ing commission. If he is granted a
permit for a ten-round affair, with a
decision, il is thought he will stage
the Willard Fulton bout at point
half way between Minneapolis and
st. Paul.
If refused a permit by the Mime
sofa commission, Colonel Miller will
then visit Camp Grant, at Rockford,
ILL.,, where army officers have asked
for the contest.
Meanwhile the only bonafide offer,
backed by a certified check, is that
from Hinkel and Tortorich, calling
for twenty rounds at New Orleans
and guaranteeing the boxers $685.

IL o'clock, after 1 had covered per-

for a moment on a shock of brush

were stacked there. 1t was daylight
