Mora it's Manager Looks on Memslc
Match aa Subterfuge.
NHW YORK. Jan. It When Owen
Mot an. the English boxer, arrived In Chi
cago and prepared to challenge Ad Wol
gaet to fight for the world's lightweight
title, he learned to hla dismay that Wol
gast had accepted an offer to "tight" 30
rounds with George Momnlc fourth
rater, at Los Angeleo, on February 23.
Wolgast knew last week that Moran in
tended to claim his title by forfeit If
the Milwaukee boy did not accept a chal
lenge, so ha signed with Memslc ss a
subterfuge. Moran. of course, realized
that ha could not secure a match with
Wolgast for at least three months, if
then, and therefore decided to withhold
bia challenge and forfeit money. But
Moran's manager, C. J. Harvey, put Wol
gast on the pan until the alleged light
weight champion fairly sizzled.
"Wolgast has simply sidestepped us,"
declared Harvey. "He hao taken on
Memslc and has no time to bother with
Moran Just now. Venule la about the
poorest apology for a fighter that Wol
gast could dig up. yet be has the nerve
to meet him Instead of taking on a
real challenger. In my opinion pro
moters should refuse to put on such
matches for Wolgast. In which event he
would soon be compelled to coma out
of his shell."

BAH IS RIGHT

CtJlib-IiaJole Scandal Is Amicably
Settled by XTlm Salary of
S25.00O Yearly Earned.
T think the selection of umpires
should ba left to tha bead of tbe leagues
and I would not work under any othrr
arrangement." This - statement is
credited to Bsn J.hnsnn. preldcnt of
tbe American League.
The statement Is ebaracterlstlo of
Ban. says the retrolt News. Study It
and you have the present standing of
Johnson In baseball. He bolda more
power than any human being engaged
In pursuit of sj-ort.
Ban's word Is law. He receives the
sum of 126.000 a year for saying his
word and ba can have tha Job for II
year mora.
This year Ban pulled bia league out
of a mesh which threatened to set base-
ball down for good.
LaJole batting scandal.
That
the
Larry had eight hits handed to him
n St. Louis. Mmeidinz wss wrong
somewhere, and tbe cat was soon out
of tha bag. Jack O'Connor, manager,
was implicated by the rumors. He
could have stopped the "laying down"
or could have prevented It.
Next came Harry Howell, former
pitcher and scout for the St. Louis
club. Harry had a little talk with the
official scorer whlrb looked bad In
print-
Then there wss comaon, tnira base
man, who played a short rieia in the
double-header between the Browns and
the Naps.
Also there waa Robert I Hodges,
owner of tha club on which this took
place.
Besides these men were Cobb and L
Jole. vitally Interested In the affair.
Unofficial figures after the game gave
Lajote tha batting championship by a
slight margin. He was credited every
where with winning the automobile
and title.
The wisdom of a Solomon alone could
extract baseball from that position.
Something crooked bad been done and
how could It be straightened out with
out making a broad admlttal of every
thing? Adralttal would have spelled
disaster and acquittal would have bad
the same effect.
Baa Johnson was the only man in
the world who could worm out of this
delicate situation and Ban Is the man
who did.
Personally, few people really like
Ban. but they admire him and he haa
their respect. Incidentally he has $2V
000 of the American League's money
every year and Ban earns It.

Several Innovations are shown, chief
of which la the left-hand drive and the

levers are placed in the center of the
car, whereby the chauffeur may ope
rate them with his right hand, as has
been the customary feature of the
White cars.
This has been the first attempt of
the White Company to manufacture a

time In the East recently, was tendered
the use of a "40" for his personal use
