BIG ATHLETIC ATTRACTION

FOR TOVVLE'S 0(1 SUNDAY

Manager Manderbeck is billing South Chicago, Michigan City, Laporte, South Bend, Gary, East Chicago, Indiana Har bor, Whiting and Crown Point for his prize attraction James J. Jeffries and Frank Gotch which will be in Hammond Sunday, Nov. 27. This gives an idea of the importance of this big mill. The bill includes a vaudeville performance, and the whole show is one that may be seen with perfect propriety by a woman. The sale of seats Is going forward rapidly. Blocks of ten and twenty seats are being picked up. and it is believed that the whole house will be sold ot long before the night of the performance. For the information of those who expect to come over to Hammond from LANGFORD STOPS

ilHUTE. FLOORING HI TWICE

Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 24. In less than one minute of fighting last night Sam Langford, the Boston negro, beat Mike Schreck up so badly that, by the order of Superintendent of Police McQuade, Referee Henninger stopped the bout and gave it to Langford. Schreck had just tottered to his feet after his second knockdown and the negro was preparing for the final knockout when the fight was stopped. The 2,500 people who had paid $5, $3 and ?2 to see this mill were so enraged that it was with great difflcirlty that Schreck was permitted to reach his dressing room without being hit with a chair, as several were poised to strike him. Schreck came Into the ring flabby. He weighed at least 200 pounds, while the Bostonian was trained to the minute. Langford last no time in prelimi naries. He reached for the fat stomach HEAT SYSTEM REVISED Trotting Association Abol ishes "3 in 5" and Substitutes "2 in 3." FOR NATIONAL CHAMPIONS Plan to Decide Best Trotter East, West and Pacific Coast Gets Boost. New York, Nov. 24. Two out of three heats will hereafter constitute a vic tory in trotting races recognized by the American Association of Trotting Horse Breeders, according to an announce ment made at the annual meeting of the association in New York last night. In a vote taken by mall replies were received from nearly, one-half of the S39 members of the association and opposition to the three-ln-five races was registered by a vote of 305 to 38. The proposal made last year for the establishment of a national stake for the trctting championship of the United States was renewed at the meeting by Frank J. Kilpatrick of Santa Rosa, Cal., and E. Stokes of Kentucky. Mr. Kilpatrick urged that the fine breed of Pacific coast trotters should have inducement to meet the winners of eastern events. He would have a series of three races, representing the east, central west and Pacific coast dis tricts, with a final contest for the American championship. The contests, he suggested, should be at Boston, Mass.; Indianapolis and San Francisco, with Lexington, Ky., for the champion ship meet. T-nited States Senator Joseph W. Bailey of Texas, president of the asso elation, who presided, said that the na tional championship idea had the ap proval of the association and that the plan would be taken up for action when $20,000 stakes were guaranteed. Senator Bailey was re-elected presi dent and all other officers were rei.ti, Delaware was admitted to membership. SUNDAY PICKS JEFF Evangelist Gives Views of Coming ignt. "Elllv" Sunday recently hesitated in his celestial campaign long enough to remark that James J. Jeffries will put Tai-it Tnhnson on the "has been" list "Jeft'll lick him so quick he won't Itrow what his name is," said Sunday from the pulpit. "I tell you wnen you knock out old Jim you'll have to put a Missouri mule in the ring against him. and It's no 100 to 1 shot then." It was this same "Billy who predicted that the Tigers would hang it onto the Pirates. CLARKE STAYS AT ROSE POLY Terre Haute, Ind., Nov. 24. Heze Clark, coach of the Rose Polytechnic football team for two seasons, ha. been engaged by the school management as athletic director to be In charge through the school year.

the neighboring cities it might be said that the performance will be over at 10:30, so that they will have an opportunity to get home at a seasonable hour. May Hold Matinee. Manager Manderbeck said yesterday that he might find it necessary to put

on a matinee performance in the afternoon in order to accommodate the crowds. However, if he can possibly crowd the spectators Into the theater on Sunday night he will do so. Other theaters in this part of the state are making a bid for the big show, and Hammond and Indianapolis are the only cities in Indiana that will have the opportunity to see the cham pions in two of the most important lines of athletics. 5GHBEGK of Schreck with hia left and landed, then whipped his right to the chin, dropping the fat man like a log. Schreck came to his feet with some labor and managed to clinch a few times, while Langford did some murderous infighting. Before the minute was ended Langford once more reached the paunch with his left lightly and crossed his right hard to the jaw. This ended it. Mike got up at the count of nine but could hardly stand, and to save a knockout the battle was stopped. The crowd was enraged at the con dition of Schreck and began to hoot him the minute he took off his robe. Langford tried all day and evening to meet Jack Johnson, who is in Pitts burg. He challenged Johnson from the ring. A feature of the evening was the resurrection of the veteran Johnny Stroup, who seventeen years ago drew with George Dixon in twenty rounds $3,000,000 BID FOR JEFF AND-JOHNSOH Publicity Seekers Probably Will Treble Amount Before Go Is Awarded. Still the bids come for the Jeffries Johnson affair. With but seven days remaining before the formality of open ing up the various offers and then awarding the contest to Jack Gleason and Jimmy Coffroth, the publicity seek ers the country over have offered the tidy little sum of J3.090.000. and, if the telegraph wires hold out, the probablll ties are that this sum will be doubled or trebled before the time limit expires. Early last night it looked as if the amount offered would have to remain below the three million dollar mark for another day at least, but Boise City Idaho, saved such a calamity by com ing to bat with a modest offer of J123, 000. The Idaho capital might just a well have made it a billion and broken into the John W. Gates class. It would have cost no more, for If the reports from the east are to be credited th battle already has been awarded t Jimmy Coffroth, who was forced into a partnership with Jack Gleason for this one fight. Of the many promoters or would-be promoters who have sent C. O. D. mes sages and the like offering fabulou sums for the go. few have a chance o staging the bout. Coffroth and Gleaso have not as yet broken into the publl prints with a definite offer, although each has stated that he would go a high as $75,000 or $80,000 to land th fight of the century. BARRY STOPS R. CALLOWAY Boston, Nov. 24. Jim Barry, the Chi cago heavyweight, knocked out Ralph Calloway, the colored California boxer, in the beginning of the tenth round in the feature bout at the Armory A. A. last night. Calloway gave away a lot of weight, at least twenty pounds, and was given an awful mauling. It was an uninteresting fight, for Calloway never semed to have a chance. Barry bided his time and gradually wore his man down. The fight was really decided in the ninth round, for Calloway was knocked down just at the close of the period and was literally dragged to his comer. It took the work of all four seconds to bring him to anything like consciousness, and then he was an easy victim for the white man. The tenth round lasted only a few seconds when Calloway collapsed in his corner. COREY WOULD RACE LOBERT Albert Corey, the French runner, yes terday answered the challenge of Charles Lobert to run anyone in the world from Clinton, Iowa, to Chicago a distance of 13S miles, for a side bet of from $100 to $2,000. Ctrey announc ed that he would, run Lobert a twenty four hour endurance race indoors and would have backing for $1,000. TTnder no conditions win Corey run outdoors al this -lime.

BOXERS PAY TO FIGHT Wolgast and Powell Chip in to Stage Go. San Francisco, Nov. 24. For a few minutes last night it looked as If the Powell-Wolgast fight, billed for next Monday, would be called off. The hitch came at a conference between Promoter Sid Hester, the fighters and their managers. Hester notified the scrappers that on account of the destruction of the Coliseum by fire the receipts of the fight would be greatly diminished and that they would have to put In $250 apiece to meet the expense of preparing the Dreamland rink arena for the battle. The point was finally conceded and the scrap will go on. Powell Is a 10 to 8 favorite.
