And we noticed that more Colored
fans would applaud when a white
player starred, than white fans when
Colored player starred. But per-
haps this difference, too, was due to
difference in degree Of Demonstrative-
ness.
When we saw the game. it was the
third game, and the blacks had al
ready taken the first two. So. who
could blame the white fans, II they
did not rise and shout, as did the
blacks, when a great black batter,
Heavy" Johnson, knocked two home
runs, clear over the fence? Babe"

{who happened to be Colored) went
wild---but nobody expected the blue"
fans, (who happened to be white) to
go wild at the same time. Then a
white boy came along and knocked

II getting revenge. and the whites
shouted as they should.
Then that big black pitcher. with
a drop" that made every bat seem
to have ga hole in It," IF he were

But both players and fans will think
better of each other after such an
experience.

POLTfICS SAID TO BE REA-
SON FOR DELAY IN DEMP-
.SEY- WILLS MATCH.
preston News service).

New York City. Oct. 26.-The gem
eral public has been wondering for
a long time why arrangements could
not be made for a Dempsey wills
debate, In the fistiana ring Most OF
them believed that Dempsey was af-
fraid to meet Wills and they are
quite correct in this. But, it is said
that the real reason for the delay
of the match is due to political reas-
sons. Governor Miller feels that II he
should permit these men to fight be-
fore election that he would loose con-
siderable support from a certain class
of New York voters. He feels that he
can better stand to loose portion of
the Negro vote of the state by not
permitting the fight to be staged in
and start the ultra religious element
among the white people of the state
turn against him as he is a candidate
for reelection this fall.
Jack Kearns, as well as Dempsey,
are highly pleased with this state of
affairs, for they, too, feel that Wills
right now would lick Dempsey to a
fragile. This would put Mr.. Dempsey
out of business and these gentlemen
are not at all ready to relinguish their
claims on a sure meal ticket A fight
with Wills would Danish these clever
schemers out of the money ring. So
Kearns is busy seeing that the coin
keeps rolling in as long as possible
in matches that are simply setups for
Dempsey. They do not want real
fight Could you blame them? They
are on the inside now. and certainly
desire to stay in the money as long
as possible. They have the right
dope-Get the coin while getting is
good and keep on getting 1t as long
as you can. To do this they must
studiously keep away from a match
with Wills for that will land Wills
and his manager in the money pen.
