second game of the season to letter
son yesterday afternoon on ast
Twelfth and Davis street grounds by
the score of 13 to 4. Both Grey, of Jef
ferson. and Bill Schroedcr, of the
Double-J nine, pitched good ball, but
luck broke for the Fast Slders. Sev
eral costly errors were responsible for
a few of the Jefferson runs, as Coach
Jamison's athletes made only seven
bits to James John's eight.
Jower starred for James John, both
In field and at bat. He checked several
swift ones, besiues scoring two runs
and stealing four bases.
Jefferson started the scoring with
two runs in the first and three In the
second. The first James John score
came in the fifth, and was followed by
one In the sixth and two in the seventh.
Four runs In the ninth gave Jefferson
a decided lead and took the hopes out
of the J. J. bunch. With fairly good
support Schroeder could have won the
game, as bis pitching was on a par
with Grey's. H. Schroeder and Laird
both caught good games.

slon next Tuesday, to consider the mat
ter of permitting the fight.
ROCKFORD, 111., April 19. With the
consent and indorsement of General
Charles H. Martin, commander at Camp
Grant, plans were laid tonight to try
to stage the fight between Willard
and Fulton at the cantonment on July
4, in case the proposal to hold the bout
at St. Paul and Minneapolis failed
When the proposal was put to Gen
eral Martin he said: "The National
Army haa fostered boxing, and we can
not put too much emphasis on the need
to foster fighting spirit in this training
camp.
Those behind the plan propose to
erect an open-air arena to seat 30,000
spectators, with standing room for all
the soldiers in the camp.
CHICAGO, April 19. (Special.)
Moved by the criticism that he should
be made to fight in the trenches Instead
of in the ring on July 4, when he is
scheduled to fight Fred Fulton, Jess
Willard today issued the following
statement:
I am close to 40 years of age and
nave a wife and five children. I am
far beyond the draft age. It is a mat
ter of law, not choice. When the Presi
dent sees fit to call men of my age I
will be only too glad to respond. It is
my country first, then myself.
I proved my loyalty, when, without
solicitation. I offered to promote a
championship fight, pay all of the ex
penses and turn over every cent to the
Red Cross. It would have netted 1200.-
000. They gave it due consideration
and then declined it.
'The public clamored for a fight.
They charged me with being afraid to
fight, and demanded that I should come
out of retirement. Colonel Miller
Igned me and closed the match, but
censure continues."
