MATTY DEAL ADMITTED GIANT'S NOTED PITCHER TO MAX- AGE CINCINNATI TEAM. tarry Herrmann Says Exchange of Henog for Mathevmoo Only to Be Approved by Director. BY HARRY B. SMITH. PAN" FRANCISCO. July 15. (Special.) With "Willie Ritchie soldiering in llonterey in the business men's pre paredness training camp and Louis Pa rente not in any hwrry to stage more bouts at laly City, the Kan Francisco boxing- game is decidedly quiet these weeks and it is likely to be the case for eome little time to come. Parente is actuated from a number of motives in not rushing into the public eye with four-round bouts. First of all, he wants to let the dear public forget about the catastrophe in the Southern California ring, when one San Francisco boxer was killed, presumably by punching at the hands of another. Secondly, Parente is having difficulty j step into a manager's shoes, and is NEW YORK, July 15. Garry Herr mann, president of te Cincinnati Reds, admitted today that reports that Christy Mathewson wouid be manager of the Cincinnati team were "absolutely true. He said that he had talked mat ters over with President Hempstead, of the rew York Giants, and that the deal for the exchange of Manager Herzog for Mathewson is satisfactory and lacks only the official stamp of the Cin cinnati club directors. Mathewson is Baid to be anxious to In getting the right sort of cards. Louis is beginning to realize that his ambitions to put on stellar attrac tions caused him to soar too high. He started off with Frankie Burns and "Willie Hoppe. Then he switched to Meehan and McAllister and finally ar ranged a bout between Ritchie and Hoppe. Burns to Box Friday. The result is that he is somewhat afraid to announce an ordinary sort of card and the big matches -are not easy to line up. He had intended to put on an attraction last Friday night, but found that the fighters of National re pute were not to be had and bo called off the performance. On next Friday, however, the mill will begin to grind once again. Frankie Burns has been signed as one half of the main event and, will be sent against either Johnny McCarthy or "Willie Hoppe. Hoppe beat Burns once, not so many weeks ago, but he is a prime favorite is the Butchertown lightweight and can be depended upon to draw many a dollar into the house. Parente has also had word from Johnny Coulon, former bantamweight champion, who is now in Portland, asking for a match here. Coulon inti mates that he will be glad to take on either Eddie Miller or Eddie Campi, both of whom are here, and if neither of these boys satisfies, Frankie Ma lone, former Olympic Club chap, is available. Parente has telegraphed Coulon that he will be accommodated and the bantamweight scrap is tenta tively set for Friday night, July 22. Game at Dreamland Killed. Good cards are not to be had for the asking, and the distance from San Francisco proper is too far away to be able to attract the fans unless there is a hummer in sight. Whatever else he has done, Parente has certainly killed the four-round game at Dreamland Rink.. Fandom will note attend the bouts with the temi-professionals as long as there is any chance to see the topnotchers or those who have been topnotchers. Freddie Welsh, still lightweight champion of the world, paid San Francisco a visit , this last week. He happened to drop into the city fresh from his Denver fight with Ad Wol gast, which the German lost on a foul, on July 7, the second anniversary of Welsh's winning the crown from Ritrhie in London. A few months ago Welsh dreamed cf retiring from the ring on July 7, 1916, but he can't quit as long as the money is rolling in, and probably will wait, like all champions, until he has been beaten. After that, if he follows the ordinary course of events, he will .still continue. WclMh Changes His Mind. Welsh now says that he has changed his mind because in the past year there was no opportunity for long-distance fights and the hazarding of his title. "When I said I would quit this year," he explained. "I believed that I would have defended my title at least once. But the opportunity has not come. 1 want three big fights within the next year, and after' that, win or lose, I will be satisfied to retire. "To my way of thinking there are three logical contenders Charles AVhite. Johnny Dundee and Benny Leonard. If I am successful, as I go long, 1 would like to give each one of the trio a crack at the honors." Welsh, who came here to see hi ulster. Miss Kate Thomas, off for a long journey to the Orient, is looking in the best of health and trained down more than has been the case on previ- pus visits. He corroborates the press' dispatches that he is to box 20 rounds in Colorado Springs on Labor day, but says that his opponent will not be picked at this time for reasons that explain themselves. The champion is due for a 10-round no-decision affair in Milwaukee the close of July against Charlie White, Then be will proceed to New York for a similar encounter against Benny Leonard. The Colorado Springs people, who are putting up considerable money, aim to have their matchmaker watch both these fights, and then pick the logical candidate. Welsh de clares that he doesn't care which one is named, and it's all up to the men who are paying the money to make tlielr own choice. Wolgast is the recipient of but faint praise from Welsh. j "l don't care to go so far as to ' make the direct charge that Wolgast Intentionally fouled me in the hope the referee would not see it and give the decision against me," he said, when touching on this subject, "but I think it is worthy of comment that in three lights I have had with Ad during the past ytar he has tried the same rough tactics. "As a contender he is not to be feared, and his only hope can be to do something that is outside the laws of boxing. For three or four rounds he seems to be his old self. Then he blows up. and any kid of the ring could handle the former Michigan bearcat. He is not the Wolgast or old. and I g u ess he is beginning to realize it." Welsh proved that he is very much of a homebody by having his wife come to San Francisco to meet him. He accompanied her to the Los Angeles beaches, where she has been during the last three months, and just for the purpose of visiting with his children, Freddie Junior and Lady Betty. Be cause of the way the champion has to fly around the country, Mrs. Welsh will remain in Southern California for at least another month, and may not rejoin her better half until after the Colorado Springs fight. V. it. i hi ca it ii i .uvhru . VANCOUVER, Wash.. July Jo. (Spe M ial.) A larjre number of Eastern willing to try out his managerial ability with the Reds. President Hempstead will go to Cin cinnati tomorrow, it was learned to night to close the deal by which the Giants will obtain Charles Herzog, the Reds' manager. Under the terms of the arrangement, it was said, Cincin nati will get the services of Christy Mathewson, who is expected to man age the team; McKechnie, third base man, and Rousch, an outfielder. The Giants also are trying to get from Cincinnati a left-handed pitcher in place of Kenneth Williams, upon whoso services the Cincinnati club holds an option. CINCINNATI, July 15. Charles Her zog, manager of the Cincinnati Na tionals, said today that he had con sented to his transfer to some other club if President August Herrmann de sired to make a trade.

Goorgo Chancy Seeks to AVrest Hon ors From Cleveland Star Coit ion Trains Hard for Bout With Billy Masoott. The featherweight division no longer has a premier, if the opinion of Johnny Coulon and the claims of stu dents of ring form are substantiated by facts. It is persistently reported that John ny Kilbane is unable to make 122 pounds, and until this point Is settled one way or the other there will be con siderable argument over the rightful successor to the Cleveland star. Cou lon says that Kilbane is getting heavier every day and would have to cut off an arm or a leg to make the feather weight limit at present. Talk has been revived of a title match between Kilbane and George Chsney. but whether anything will come of it is problematical at this time. According to Coulon. who meets Filly Mascoit in a return match at the Rose City Athletic Club next Friday night, a club at Baltimore is seeking to bring this match about. When a battle first was proposed be tween Kilbane and Chaney it is said that the champion held out for a pound age of 125 at 3 o'clock, whereas Chaney maintained that 125 pounds, ringside, was the limit of the weight concession he would make. As a result the affair fell through. If tnit is the best weight that Kil bane can make, he Is no longer a feath erweight and should be compelled to battle in the lightweight class. Tha Clevelander has been operating for a year as a featherweight without being compelled to make the weight limit. Jolly Johnny Coulon has his back up against a cement wall and is fighting like a Trojan to make good. It seems strange to see a boy like Coulon still within a boxer's age limit training for an unknown chap like Hilly Mascott the way Coulon is doing. It is not exaggerating when one says that the former bantamweight king is working harder for his bout with the South I'ortland Frenchman next Friday night than he ever worked before. Both boys will be down to the re quired 116 pounds at 6 o'clock the after noon' of the match, according to the present outlook. Manager Merrill, or the - Rose City Athletic Club, is arranging five classy preliminaries. Two of them will be between Johnny Boscovitch and Ernie Madden at 14 5 pounds, and Joe Gorman and Young Turkey at 116 pounda Here is a short and easy way of determin ing the height of a Zeppelin. A piece of wood two inches long and a quarter of an Inch wide would completely blot out a Zep pelin if it were 7iX) feet away and the piece of wood held at'OUt two feet from the eyes. fAUTO ROSE CITY SPEEDWAY RACES i i mom) a aLh BB-' arJHBa'' e aiaaa 2 P.M. a sasal am slaa Portland's First Great Inter-City Auto Race Sleet THE BEST THE WEST CAN OFFER 4 Racing Contests 4 OVER 100 MILES OF AUTO RACING CONTESTS Racing Cars From Los Angeles, Cal.
