Corbett Says Willard Will
Not Get Crack at Johnson
BY JAMES J. CORBETT
Former Heavy-weight Champion o'
the World.
New York, Nov. 21 (.Special to the
Daily Capital Journal) After all the
wire pulling and manipulation on the
part of his backers it begins to look as
if .lesa Willard will not got first crack
at .lack .1 oh iihoii for the world's title.
The lateat news concerning the future
engagement of the champion is that
either Sum McVca or liuttling Jim
Johnson is to be his next opponent, the
battle to take place in Havana, Cuba,
the Inttcr part of March or eurlv in
April, 1015.
I huve this information direct from
a gentleman representing Mr. (ieorge
Rruilt, of lluvaua, who is ut the head
of 'the syndicate organized to promote a
series of heavy-weight matches during
the coining Winter and Spring season,
According to my informant the plans
originally culled for a fight to a finish
between Snm I .aiigford and Sinn McVen,
the winner to meet Johnson. Hut it
developed thnj McVea's monager,
Ueorge, Lawrence, at present in 'New
York City, did not care for any of the
"tur buby'B" game and entered his
objections to T.angford being made a
principal. Then it is also thought tlmt
Johnson objected to any plans which
would give him Langford for an op
ponent. It hut been announced in the New
York pupcrs that duck Johnson and
McVea have been matched, but accord
ing to my information this is t trifle
premature. McVea's participation in a
match with the champion depend en
tirely upon the Buccesa ho meets with In
the preliminary skirmish with Jim
Johnson, The winner of that bout is to
get the coveted chance for the title.
That the proposed importation of the
"nigger figlitors," as they are termed
tu tuna, is not at all popular with cer
tain interests in Ilavnua is evident by
the following excerut from a recent
issue of the Cuba News, a weekly news
paper published in tlmt city:
"The Cuba News desires to enter an
emphatic pretext against the publisher
of the Havana Post (Mr. Itrn.lt ) to con
vince the people of Cuba that Ameri
cana, and especially that class of
Americans who hnve the means and the
desire for foreign travel, chase around
after second rate nigger prize fighters,
and spend lavish sums for the oppor
tunity of seeing them bruise each other
up. The News right here brands the
statement that 20,000 tourists would
come to Culm to see two niggers put up
perhaps n fake fight is a false and non
sensical statement, and the ma u who
made it knew it was false mid nun
seiislonl when he luiide it.
"The publisher of the Havona Post
may be a nigger lover and enjoy uch
spectacles as lie. purpose! to pull off
here in Havana, but if he is he stands
mono in his class. Instead of 20,000
tourists coming to Cuba to witness a
second rate boxing match thorn would
not be 100 persons actually attracted by
the fight, and anyone who has seen
prir.e fights and know priv.e fighters
and the followers of the game knows
that theio are not 20,000 persons in the
I'nited States who would pay $10 to see
l.nngford and McVey fight, to say
nothing of spending twenty times that
sum for the expenses of their trip."
The New Vork papers erroneously an
miuii.'C.I n bout between Jack Johnson
and McVen, and nothing has been said
about the prelimlnifry mutch between
Mo Von mid Jim Johnson ,(o determine
which is to be the champion 'a oponent.
From the foregoing article It would ap
pear that (he promoters of the proposed
mutches will meet with considerable op.
position in their attempt to Introduce
the sport in Cuba through the medium
of negro fighters, The statement tlmt
the United States would send 20,000
people to see Langford and McVen
fight (this was printed before the shift
had Imh'H iiiii.Ii, Is absurd. It is ex
tremely doubtful if a baker's dnreii
would travel to Cuba even to see John
son and l.angl'ord, and that lay out
would bo made up solely of newspaper
men who would go becnuse It came as
port of their duties, Hut with the big
negro population in Havana the venture
may be able to mako a little money,
leaving the greater profit to come from
the sale of moving picture rlithts,
Anvway it looks as if Willard has
Wn left in the void for the time bein

BOWLING SCHEDULE
FOR ENTIRE SEASON
CLASS "B" LEAOUE ORGANIZED
AND WILL TRY AND SHOW THE
BOYS HOW REAL, GENUINE
BOWLING IS DONE.
San Francisco, may be interesting to
the readers of this column. 1 don't
know anything about Wills myself, but
he has plenty of admirers to boost for
him. Hilly Jordnn, t.he veteran an
nouncer who probably has seen more
prize ring buttles than any other man
in the world, thinks Wills ft better
fighter than the. great Peter Jackson
ever was. This is praise indeed coming
from so good a judge as the vcterau
Jordan, who goes on to say that Wills
can, in his opinion, beat any heacy
weight in the game, not excepting John
son and l.aiitffurd, und that the comiiie
battle with the latter fighter will prove j
Wills one of the greatest fighters ever'
in the game. j
Peter Jackson was oue of the great
est heavy-weight fighters the world
ever knew. I am not saying this be
cause I fought him a III round battle I
once upon a time and trying to get a
tardy boost for my own 'share in that!
memorable affair, but because 1 have
had many opportunities to study tlioi
ueeiismiry stilts or tlie lust quarter of
a century and buse my opinion on that
coupled with my own experience ia the
ring. Jackson was li wonderful de
fensive fighter, nnd almost as great
on offense. According to Jordan Peter
could pick n man who came to him to
pieces, although he lacked aggressive
ness. Hut in this Hilly ia slightly in
error. True Peter did not have' the
slam bang aggressiveness of the latter
tdny type of fighter, but he had a won
derful left hand and a scientific method
of attack that is practically unknown
to present day heavies, .luckso.i figured,
every move and every blow he uimed.
It was all calculation with Peter. He
was a student of boxing If ever there
was one, and ho varied his methods to
suit the styles of his adversaries.
However, if Wills has so favorably
impressed the veteran Jordan hj must'
have shown something out of the or li
nn rv in his few battles on the coast.
Billy is not easily fooled ia-his jndg
rnenuf a fighter.
Now that Kred.ly Welsh has pick".!
up something like 2.",000 in short bouts
with Mutty llnldwin, Ad Wolgast, Chnr
ley White and Jimmy Duffy, ami satis
fied the fans that he Is a "regular"
champion he might go n bit further and
consent to tuke Willie Hitchie on either
lu a ten round mutch or In a twenty
round decision bout for the champion
ship. Freddy should not go out of his way
to maun con.litioiis ilitticult for Ifitohio ;
lie ahould remember that a return bi.uti
ia due a defeated title holder according
to all rulea and etiquette of the aport.,1
nun in mummy; a iiiutcil Wltu Ullcnic
he will not mako any new friends for
himself. Hitchie went nil the way to
Fngland to box Welsh, risking his
title in a foreign country whoro ho
knew that the interpretation of the
rule would not favor his style of mill
lug. Still it. showed the supreme con
fidence the American lad entertained
of his ability to beat Finland's cham
pion on his own battle ground, mi l his
reward should be a return engagement
with his conqueror, Added to nil this
the fact that there exists considerable
doubt of Welsh 's victory being a clean
cut one makes it imperative for Freddy
to talk business with the former title
holder and try to prove that his victory
was n deserved one.
Willie and Freddy would iiuike a
great match for Madison Square (iar
den. 1 dare sny It would break nil
records in New York for n limited
round bout and Welsh could gather us
much in n sinlo evening for his share
as he could la half n doen engagement
with boys of less reputation than the
Californinu. While I hnrlev White Is
being boomed for another fling at the
champion the nintch tlmt would nppe.il
to American sports everywhere would
be a return engagement with liitchie.
A ten round bout at the Oiir.lon might
settle ninny difference of opinion re
garding the much disputed decision ren
dered by Eugene Corri in London but
June.
Kitchie'a style made nn Immense bit
with New Yorkers in the only battle li
which he was seen here tlmt with
I.ench Cross. He is always Interesting
because he Is trying cverr inch of the
way nud what he lacks in n scientific
sense he more than makes up by his
Intelllirent niruressiveness. There Is no
such thing ns stalling with the Ameri-i
can champion; he is in the ring to
fiirht, and fight he does every second.
Welsh can make himself solid with
the public by meeting Kit. hie half way
On account of the interest in bowl
ing in this city, which has been arous
ed by the City Howling League and
the Willamete Valley League, William
Steutsmaii, of the Electric alleys, nnd
"Bunny" Meiring, of the Club alleys,

Managers Assert Every Tick
et Sold Days Ago for Yale
Harvard Game
(By Hal Sheridan.)
(Written for the United Press.)
New Haven, Conn., Nov. 21. In tho
largest nrena in the world and before
the greatest crowd that ever witnessed
a sporting event anywhere, Harvard
meets Vine today in the annual grid
iron battle which will dedicate this
monster new home of the Blue eleven.
The massiveness of this structure,
built around the field where the 22
men of the Blue and of the Crimson
will clash for the honor of their alma
maters, fairly takes away one' breath.
There are seats for (10,000 spectators iu
tho tier upon tier of steus. On tho rim
of the bowl hnve been erected 10,000
ndditioaul Beats. Graduate Manager of
Athletic Everard Thompson announced
today that every one of the 70,000 tick
ets had been sold or reserved three
days ago.
Ia the distribution by allotment of
this vast number of tickets. Mnnauer
Thompson hit upon a plan by which ho
beli.'ves he has completely ' eliminated
the speculators, who had hoped to reap
a veritable harvest. Each applicant
was mado to fill out a blank with hiB
nam?, address and class in college. This
rule held with Harvard students and
graduates as well as those from Ynle.
Money far tickets had to accompany
each blank. Each applicant was num
bered up to 70,000. The Yale and Har
vard athletic, associations received
if 140,000, which will be evenly divided.
The new bowl cost Yale "i00,000 and
is made entirely of concrete. Tho top,
which is 55 feet above the gridiron, is
8M0 yards a half mile in circumfer
ence. The person who wants to walk
back anil forth along the tier of seats
until he has covered every tier, would
have 24 miles of pacing-to his credit.
The bowl ia to be used exclusively fur
football games, Bad inside of six years
is no stnuding room iu the structure. It
is no standing roo min the structure. It
took a force of 1000 student and sal
aried official! to show the spectators
to their sent today.
The average weight of the Yale play
ers was 183 pounds. The Ifnrvard ag
gregation averaged three pouuds less.
Only those acquninted with n subject
are competent to decide as to its mer
its and practical value.
BIG CROWD ATTENDS -GAME
AT CORVALLIS
Corvullis, Ore, Nov. 21. Ideal wea
ther conditions prevailed here for tha
annual football game this afternoon
between the Oregon Agricultural Col
lege and the linivorsity of Oregon
teams. Thousands of funs arrived horu
by speciul trains from Portland, Eu
gene, Snlcm, Albany and other cities.
In the face of the dope, the Aggie)
1'iive a slight advantage. The farmer)
have not been defeated this yeur and
hold a no-score tie with the University
of Washington, while Oregon lost to
the Vashingtoiiinns by the score of 1'
to 0 lust Saturday.
Tho coaches of both teams declared
their player were ia the finest of con
dition and a close game was antici
pated. RITCHIE GETS COLD FEET.
San Francisco, ov. 21. Promoter
James W. Coffroth admitted here today
that all hope of bringing Willie Ritchie
and Freddie Welsh together in a 20
rrund bout in San Francisco before the
anti-boxing amendment becomes effec
tive, bad vanished. And he flatly do
dared that the greediness of Ritchie
was responsible.
"I'm through with Ritchie," said
Coffroth, "for all time. He came to
me and asked that a match be arranged
with Freddie Welsh. Then after good
progress had been made he declared he
would not box Welsh unless I granted
him a guarantee of $7,500, which I con
sidered out of the question,
Ritchie kept nway from Coffroth'!
office yesterday. When naked why he
had not called on the promoter, Ritchie
answered:
"A proposition was made to mo to
fight Welsh, I did not think there was
enough money in sight and refused the
offer. Caff roth sent word to me thut
I was to have n certain amount of time
in which to think over tho proposition,
and if I did not care to accept he would '
secure Charlie White in my place. I
told Mitchel the match was off so far
ns I was concerned, and to tell Coffroth
set This called off negotiations entire
ly, T assumed, and naturally there was
no occasion for me to see the pro-,
motor,"
