JEFFRIES TALK ALL BOSH Tex Rickard Said to Have Purchased Right to Fight Pictures In Cal ifornia Baseball Gets Boost aa Boxing Slumps. BY HARRY B. SMITH. BAN FRANCISCO. CaL. Aug. a. (Special. After the monumental farce that ll pulled off In Reno. Nov- Just about a month aRO. It Is little wonder that stock In fighting clubs, so far as California la concerned, has been way below par. and that baseball -has been the only sport worth while. As a mat ter of fact. It was quite to be expected there would be a reaction after sj much space was wasted over the heavyweight battle and. even though the authorities had not set down their official foot, there would have been a ouietus. As things stand now. how ever, it is a question whether the game will continue to flourish. The Ex aminer, umler Instructions from Its r..trr. offices. Is waring- a bitter war against the game of flstlana. Not a r. -nnsistent course, it is quite true, In view of the way that paper has ex ploited such matches in the past, but ik.i mir little or no difference to the Hearst people. Of course their at tacks are bound to hurt the game, but whether they can stop It altogether re mains to be seen. Coffroth Makes Match. In spite of all the protests, boxing is timidly lifting -its head. Jimmy Coffroth. for example, who has Just returned from a trip to Santa Crux. Is talking of a !0-round. no-declslon match for Auaaiat 31 between Abe Atiell snd Owen Moran. He calls attention very diplomatical ly to the fact that this Is not to be a prlxeflght. but a sparring exhibition. Ife refers to the other matches between the two lads which have been held under the Otllett admlnlstrstlon. and cars this will be the same kind of a - bout. To tell the truth. Coffroth la not at all sure that he will be undisturbed in handling a io-round fight. What he wants to do is to find out Just where he stands. If he Is not to be permitted to handle 20-round matches, then he will drop as gracefully aa he can to 1-round affairs. He hss put his match far along to the end of the month in ord-r to give the Governor a chance to apeak If he Intends to Interfere. It is now up to Governor Glllett. If he considers a SO-round match in vio lation of the law. that Is an end to It. I am rather Inclined to think that there must be some compromise, and would not be surprised In the least to see It come about that we would be having 10-round matches In the future, with the newspapers giving the deci sions. At all events, future developments In this regard will be waited with In terest. Jim Jeffries Cause of Tempests. Jim Jeffries has caused a small stsed tempest in a teapot by the Inter view charged to him. In which he stat ed that he knew he was drugged prior to the Reno fight. T-ater he denied this statement. Still later he repudiat ed his denial, and more recently of all he haa refused to talk about the sub ject. Knowing men In the sporting game laugh when the story "is told that Jeffries waa drugged. As a matter of fact, there was not a chance for airy thing to happen. He was surrounded by his friends from start to finish, and particularly Just before the fight. I ran't believe myself that Jeffries has made any such excuses. The facts sre that Jeffries went Into the ring beaten. The handicap of having been too long out -of the game was too mucn for nun. and there are many of us who think that Jeffries. In his prime, would have found the black a full match for him. . All this talk about Jeffries returning to the ring Is another absurdity, along with the gossip that James J. Corbet t will train up a ninn to "take the meas ure' of Jack Johnson. With due re spect to Corbett. he Is merely adver tising himself when he talks along in that strain, and I don't believe that he places any confidence In what he Is saying. Rk-kard Is In Picture Came. From Los Angeles this week has come the news that Tex Rickard has purchased the state rights for the mov ing pictures. Further. It Is said that he will put the pictures on display In Kan Francisco in spite of Mayor Mc Carthy's statement that the films can not be exhibited. When this warlike threat of the pro moter was made public. Mayor McCar thy replied that the taw was under stood and he Intimated that Tex might be short a set of films If he attempted anything so foolhardy. I don't believe that RU-kard will fly In the face of Frovldenoe. More likely he will en deavor to exhibit tha films In soma suburb of San Francisco, In which case he may do fairly well. The - partially completed Jeffries Johnson arena that waa started at Kiarhth and Market streets and stopped when Governor Glllett spoke. Is still standing. Some sort of attachment proceedings are pending and until that matter is settled up there ran be noth ing done with the lumber, which la north, quite a sum of money. Champion Yolcat Rill Chance. There was some talk of matching Wolgast and Moran for the latter part of 'tae month In Pan Francisco, but the lightweight champion wanted alto gether too much money. He refused to tske a chance at a percentage of tha house and Insisted upon a guarantee that waa stsggerlng to tha promoters who were dickering with him. The sooner the fighters realise that they must come down to earth so fsr aa their demands for purses are con cerned, the better. An Oakland promoter. Met Mnffatt by name, has a scheme that may be ar ranged. He wants to organise a Pa cific Coast Commission to attend to the boxing game. His Idea Is to ar range, conditions under which matches sre to be msde and to fix terms upon which tne boxers are to meet. It is a good scheme It ha can get his pro moters together but they are a sus picious lot and I doubt very much whether his plan will work out. The apathy la fight circles has cer tainly been a big boost to baseball. The close race In the Coast League Is, naturally, largely responsible for most of the Interest, but Just at present there la vary little else to do In tha ) - way of amusement; Last Sunday, for example. In tha two games. Portland and San Francisco drew something like 18,00 people. Portland is always a good card In San Francisco. Sacramento has been coming with a rush lstely and now thera are ap parently six teams In" the race with four of thera neck and neck. The District Court of Appeale of California has held that gambling at a baseball park Is a felony and Presi dent Graham has Issued a statement In which he says he will proceed against the gamblers more vigorously thsn ever. As a matter of fact thera la mighty little open gambling at Recre ation Park these days. COBB " UKADS BATTING LIST Tiger Fielder Overtakes LaJole in American League Averages. Tyrus R. Cobb, the heavy hitter of the Detroit American League team, has finally overhauled Napoleon LaJole, the kingpin hitter of the Clevelands, and la leading the regulars of the American League. Cobb Is now hitting .878, while LaJole has slumped to .35. The big Frenchman, however, may pick up in his hitting shortly and again take the lead, though Cobb will give him a battle for the honors all season. The Players Clubs. 8trunlc Athletics .. Cobb.

BATTING DEMON Once Idol of Portland Fans Pushes Near .300 Mark. Big Larry McLean, formerly the Idol of the Portland fans and now the star backstop of the Cincinnati National League team, was the batting demon of the league, according to the averages compiled up to a recent date. Ac cording to the percentages published a week ago Larry was hitting about .270, and has clouted the ball so hard and often In the recent games that he now enjoys the mark of .295.

"BABES" TO HAVE GAMES OREGON FRESHMEN ENCOVR AGED TO PLAY FOOTBALL. Contests for Youngsters to Be Ar. ranged With Washington and Other Northwest Colleges, UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene, Aug. . (Special.) Efforts will be made next year to Increase the Importance of the freshman football team at tne uni verpitv of Oregon. Games with the freehmen at Oregon Agricultural College, University of Washington and several other Northwest Colleges will be ached uled If possible, besides the regular games with the preparatory schools or i-omano. The football authorities here realize tna romethlng must be done to encourage freshmen and others who have not the necessary experience and skill to make the varsity team get out on the field and learn the game. Formerly, this need waa supplied by the second or re serve team, which had a regular game each year with the Agricultural College reserves. This game waa peeona in im portsnce to the regular varsity game only. Since the second team game has been given up, however, there has been little encouragement for men to try for the team unless they could make the varsity squad. This Is contrary to the policy of the university to get aa many men Into athletics as possible. When the second team game waa dis continued. It was understood that freshman game with O. A. C. would take its Place. The "Aggies" for some rea son. however, did not favor the change and have never organized their first year men. Next year another effort will be made to Induce them to do so. If the Agriculturists do not have freshman team next year, it Is probable that a game will be arranged with the University of Washington "babes," who always have a strong eleven. This game would have the disadvantage of greater expense, but. oil the other hand. It would be simpler to arrange for the reason that there Is no preparatory department at Washington. This puts the freshmen then more nearly on the same rooting with Oregon freshmen, as one of the chief objections to the Oregon Agrlcul tursl College game Is the difficulty In distinguishing the preparatory Mudent there from the freehmen. Ralph Ftary and Jack Murrhy. two old pals who won the spangles In Northern Minnesota eeveral dozen or more years ago, held a reunion yesterday and to listen to the tales of old times they re lated one would Imagine they Invented the game of baseball.
