NEW YORK, July s. - Five Of

next Thursday night at Boyle's
Thirty Acres in Jersey City, when
Jess Willard and Luis Firpo meet
in a twelve-round bout for the
chance to win the worlds heavy.
weight title.
Jim Jeffries, in the opinion of
most experts, the greatest Of them
all. will referee the contest. Jack
Johnson, who dethroned Jeffries,
will be in from Atlantic City; jim
Corbett, who lost the title to Fitz.
simmons, will journey in from Bay
side, Long Island, and Jack Demp-
sey will be here to look over the
winner.
Newton Bugbee, New Jersey box
ing commissioner, says Jeffries will
not be granted a referees license
because he has not resided in tie
State for three years, but Tex Rick
ard said today that he hoped to find
a way around that.
1t will be the. first meeting Of
Jeffries and johnson since their
battle At Reno thirteen years ago
yesterday under the direction Of
Tex Richard. Willard and Johnson
are good friends again, the big fell
lows having met in the gym at
Madison Square Garden when Viii
lard started training for his bout
with Floyd Johnson.
Corbett was never more inter
ested in a heavyweight match than
he is with the Willard-Firpo Lon-
test. Jim was one of the first to
invade the box office for a front
row seat. THE winner OF this
match will win the title" said Jim
when he tucked his ticket away
"It is a natural match and between
two Of the biggest fellows we ever
had willard is a marvel for his
age. but he is up against a tough
baby nd I think it will be one Of
the toughest battles we ever had"

Up to the time I am putting my
story on left-handed press, the
Giants have won ten straight.
Also at the writing, they have
.688 per cent and the Pittsburgh
Pirates have .617 per cent. While
it is perfectly sure that there is
enough percentage between them
and give it kick like a Govern
and give it a kick like a Govern
ment mule, still and all you never
can tell.
The same thing is true in the
American League, where the
Yanks lead by scores of points.
Both these high-priced clubs have
more points than a porcupine, but
while l am not a betting man
except on proposition like the
one that hootch is no beverage for
la perfect lady-yet | will wager
anyone that accidents can happen
to overconfident persons. This
applies to wives as we'll as UNI
pires. My wager, however, is
only mental one. Ny bet takers
will have to prove who has the
mentality.
