A N AUTOPSY on . rather sue

Matchmaker Goldie Ahearn will strive
to capitalize on the happy situation.
Scarcity of acceptable material in

force Ahearn and Promoter Joe Turner

Schools Provide Most Athletes.

THE N. c. A. AS chief argument was
the contention that SO per cent of
the athletes. who accounted for nearly
all the points won in the Olympic
games, have been from colleges, and
that those teams we're financed BY the
colleges This argument also was used
by the Southern Pacific Association of
the A. A. U. when it recently formu-
lated petition asking the national
body to surrender control Of these
sports TO the colleges.
The colleges contend that 80 years
ago, when athletic clubs were the big
gest factor in amateur athletics, there
was definite need for A. A. u. control
of Olympic Committees. Now, the
N. C. A. A. insists. colleges have as
sumed the dominant role in amateur
athletics.

Bierman was right. There no longer
are any great teams left-for one rea-
son. There are too many others just

any outstanding material among the
big time bunch. Some give out more
scholarships than others can afford.
But even this no longer is winning
factor. There are too many others
that can protect themselves from the
financial side.
The country today is full Of
fine foot ball players who need
some help to get along.
And many of them get all they need.
And this certainly Is no fault of the
coach. At least. not always.

SEVERAL SNAPPY

ney Ross, who retained his
VI welterweight title without a
4 great deal of trouble by whip
ping Cerefino Garcia in the recent all
star show in New York is expected to
get into action in another champion
ship test shortly.
Lou Ambers or Pedro Montanez
lightweights, who fought on the same
bill, with the former keeping his
crown in hugging match, are being
talked of as the logical opponents
for Barney Ross. The lightweight king
would have to spot Barney every bit of
8 pounds. In a 15-round battle this
would prove a distinct advantage to
the Chicagoan, who seems to have
broadened out and strengthened his
muscles without taking on weight.
Whether a handicap affair of this
sort would register with the fans
Is question. Ambers did not cover
himself with glory in outsmarting
Montanez, and a check back to what
Jimmy McLarnin did to Ambers in
the same sort of match and what
Ross did to Vancouver Jimmy on three
different occasions might have a
tendency to keep the fans at home.
Best at 130 Pounds.
A GAINST Montanez it would be a
different story. 1t now is agreed
that Puerto Rico Pedro is not light
weight. He is best around 1873 pounds
During the time which must elapse be-
for the boys are brought together, it is
conceivable Montanez could pick up
at least pounds without setting him
back A match at weights with only
2 or 3 pounds difference between the
principals would be almost even and
create the interest a match of this
kind deserves.
Montanez should not be condemned
FOR one bad showing. Had Pedro
realized the trying time he had to
endure getting down to the light
weight limit, the chances are he would
have sacrificed his forfeit and chance
for the crown by coming in several
pounds overweight and vindicate him.
self by meeting Ambers at a natural
weight. Had he whipped Ambers under
those circumstances, he would have
lost S2,500 and saved face" by pos
sibly repeating his win over the light
weight champion.

BERTH WITH CUBS
OPEN TO 0LAzZER|
Conference Is Arranged For,
Says WrigIey-Not After

BY the Associated Press.

~HICAGO, october 19.-The
4 Chicago Cubs today were in
the field which is bidding for
~ the services Of Tony Lazzeri,
slugging star of the recent world series
and since then Internationally re-
leased by the champion New York
Yankees.
Phil K. Wrigley, owner of the Chi
cago National League team, said Laz-
zeri had accepted an invitation to
confer here relative to joining the
Cubs-but Wrigley declined to say
whether Lazzeri has been or would be
offered q post as scout, coach or man
ager in 1899. Charley Grimm is un-
der contract to pilot the Cubs again
next year.
Cubs Want Lazzeri's Fire"
At HIS San Francisco home Laz-
zeri professed to know nothing of
the invitation. Clarence Rowland, Cub
scout, talked to the former Yankee
ace here last week. At that time Tony
had not been released by the Yanks.
When word came that LaZzeri had
been given his release. the Cubs went
into action, which resulted in Wrigley's
announcement Lazzeri has promised
to come here but has set no definite
date.
The impression prevails that Wrigley
would like some of the fire and ag
gressiveness shown by the Yanks in
recent seasons and believes that Laz-
zeri could impart those qualities to a
team which led the National League by
seven games in August and then skid
ded ingloriously into second place.
