In an Interview today tho Nevadnn,
who arrived from Ely early this
morning for a conference over the,
battleground for tho Jeffries- John
son tight, declared that Snu Fran-,
Cisco Is Ills first choice. In tho same
breath ho hurled defiance at John
Hergel, chairman of the pollco com
mission of the bonrd of supervisors,
which grants permits for fights, prac
tically putting San Francisco proper
out of the running. Hergel has put
himself on record as being opposed to
permitting an outsider to have an In
terest in tho fight If It were held in
San Francisco, unless a good vrouni
sum were paid the holder of the July
permit, which goes to Jim Griffin.
Rickard declares that Hergel will
have nothing to say about tho fight,
that he will relinquish no portion of
his Interest in the match, and that
only he and Gleason, share and share
alike, will handle tho battlo. This,
therefore, practically means that
while the fight will not be held In San
Francisco, it will go either to Point
Richmond or Oceanvlew In Alameda 1
county, both within 40 minutes' ride
of San Francisco.
