TO TAKE
MONTHS VACATION
To Be Ready to Open Drive
for Heavyweight Title
by September Is.
BY TOMMY LOUGHRAN.

Light Heavyweight Champion OF the World
Let us first get straight on why I
still write "light-heavyweight champion
of the world" under my name after
announcing that I would never again
defend that title. It Is simple and rea-
sonable enough.
I don't intend to go through the
strain Of getting down to ITS pounds
again. However, have six months
grace before the necessity of defending
that championship arises AS I have
beaten every contender by wide mar
gins, there is no need bothering about
any one in the class.
But until 1 sign for a fight with one
Of the other heavyweight contenders
there is no use in officially handing my
title over to the boxing commission, is
there? I may as we'll retain the cham
pionship until the pressure Of work
among the big fellows forces me to give
it up.
am going to take a vacation.
A months rest will do me a world
Of good. l would like to swing into &C
ton again about September IS and
keep the pressure on until I have won
the heavyweight championship.
There's been a lot of talk about my
entering a blacksmith shop to build
myself up to 100 pounds. I think some
misunderstanding has arisen about this.
I don't intend going in the shop to the
exclusion of everything else. but II Will
be part of my training program. Swing
ing a sledge will build up my shoulders.
arms and back muscles and give me
greater hitting power.

~ REPRESENTATIVES. of three mi
u nor leagues held a lodge of
~ sorrow in Atlanta recently.
i Y They mourned that departed
brother, John q. Public, the
man with the 75-cent piece.
AL Gardner, president of the Wichita
Falls club. represented the Texas
League. Cap" william Neal of the
Louisville club presented the sorrows
of the American Association and r. J..
Spiller of Atlanta wept for the South
ern Association.
The mourners advanced a number Of
points. The important ones were: .
1. Base ball salaries are too high.
2. The ball is too lively.
8. Base ball must dosomething
to restore interest in the game.
4. Competition for recruits is get
ting harder and it now is necessary
for base ball clubs to develop their
own material.
"lodge" that a number Of clubs are
paying out in salaries every louie they
take in at the gate.
Cap" Neal said conditions in the
American Association were equally as
bad.
Some class A clubs are paying men
as high as $1,000 per month, they said,
and agreed this was preposterous.
There are numerous salaries of $3.50
and $500 per month.
1t was the unanimous opinion that
the Winter meeting of the minor
leagues will be almost as interesting
as the next series between the Gin
cinnati Reds and Chicago Cubs.
