LANGFOBD

KETGHELL MY BE 1HE SEHINDUP

AMATEUR BASEBALL EDITOR ANXIOUS.

San Francisco, March 23. Local pro-

moters who expect to reap a rich harvest when the Jeffries-Johnson crowd

is gathered late in June and early in July are naturally trying to secure the best cards . possibje. Next to Johnson

and Jeffries, a contest ) between Sam

Langford and Stanley Ketchel looms up

as the biggest probable money-maker.

but Ketchel has stifled all speculation on this particular point by signing to box Langford six rounds at Philadelphia late In April.

Next to Langford and Ketchel, pro

moters would like to have something

with Ad Wolgast in it, but here again there Is a rocky road to travel. Wol

gast, they say, Is tiring of the show business and would like to get back Into ring costume. He said as much

the other day, but at the same time intimated that his next fight would not take place at San Francisco. Ad told

his friends that he had promised to fight

for "Uncle Tom" McCarey of Los, An

geles and that he was looking forward

to. a bout with Owen Moran at the Ver

non arena.

There, is evidently a difference of

opinion on the subject of fighting be

tween Wolgast and Manager Tom

Jones, for the latter declares he will

not allow Wolgast to fight until late in

gast's theatrical dates are filled Wol

gast will go to his home in Cadillac,

Mich., for a good long rest.

"I want Ad to be in the best possible shape when he stacks up against the Tellows who have challenged him," writes Jones. "Once he begins fighting again he will fight often and over long distances probably, as It will be necessary for him to defend his championship." Battling Nelson, who Intimated before leaving San Francisco that his next fight would be with "Cyclone" Thompson, now declares that all his energies will be concentrated In an attempt to force Wogast into a return match. At least it is news that comes west from men who are close to Nelson, and If the information Is reliable Jim Griffen and the rest of them may as well abandon their plans for bringing Nelson and Thompson together in June or July. Sid Hester sends word that he Is dickering for a. "big card" to fill a date at Richmond around May 20. As he Is

constantly crossing the path of both Nelson and Wolgast while traveling the

picture route, it may be that he will

have better luck in signing one or both of the lightweight rivals than some of the promoters nearer home can expect

THE TIMES is going to pay considerable attention, to the little lajoies and future Ty Cobba of Lake county again this summer.

showing up It looks as if the north side will have a strong amateur team. Manager Lelmbach has been putting the players through some hard practice work and will have his team in fine form In time for the first game, the date of -which is not yet known. A meeting of the east side baseball enthusiasts will be held next Friday evening in J. P. Smith's saloon on East Sibley street, for the purpose of organizing a baseball team for East Hammond. Mr. Smith got together a good bunch of ball players last year, and he

thinks that there is a sufficient amount

of material left to pick ten good men for a team this season.

New men are being tried out for the

All Saints' team every night. Manager

Sherby has not decided on the lineup he

will use this year, but there Is plenty

f men to pick from and he expects to

put a winning nine in the field.

the bt. Josephs are expected to come

out with a lineup similar to that used

last year, except for a couple of chang

es. The team may not play under the

same name this year, but practically the

same bunch of players 'will be in the lineup.

The players who expect to try for

positions on the Triangle Colts nine this year will meet some time this week to decide on the men that will

be used in this season's lineup.

BEAUMONT'S HUER BEATS SEA GULLS, 2-1

Cub Regulars Take Final Battle at Mobile With Aid of "Ginger."

Mobile, Ala., March 28. "Ginger" Beaumon't terriffic home run drive, good for an annual meal ticket at the leading local beanery, yesterday hand

ed the Cub regulars their second and

final game with the Seagulls, 2 to 1

The wallop trailed Sheckard's freak

double back of third in the sixth round,

which produced the only cluster of

swats assembled by the old guard.

Aside from "Beau's" mighty smash

and a brilliant one-handed stab by

Tinker, who engineered a lightning double play when Mobile really threat, ened, there was nothing unusual about the exhibition. Frank Pfeffer and his elusive overhand ball held the locals In a trance through the first five rounds,

and when King Cole sallied forth as the

ready relief but one Seagull had reg

istered a hit. This went to Darrlnger, first man up In the opening round, a double to center field giving the bugs a perfectly legitimate inspiration for pro

tracted cheering.

he has to pay them.

The question which is bothering the backers -of the "West Hammond team Just how is that of procuring suitable grounds to use this year. The men are figuring on a piece of land near the line

Walla Walla, Wash., March 23.

When the father of Joy Miller, the

University of Michigan football play

er who was expelled from college for competing in athletics while, not reg

istered, met his son today after a separation of two months and a half he was greeted with merely a casual

glance such as would be bestowed on any stranger. His son didn't know

him.

After being sought all over the coun

try, young Miller was found last week

working on a fruit farm near this city. He told a strange story of having lost his memory and having wandered from

place to place after he left his home In Detroit. He maintained that he did not know his name or any of his former associates and denied ever having seen a game of football. After he was found he was very reticent about his wanderings, which gave hise to the opinion that he was faking. At that time all he would say was: "My friends here have made It possible for me to get in touch with my father and everything it all right now. It is all fixed up, I guess."

TURK TO QUIT IF DEFEATED Defeat at the hands of Zbyszko next Tuesday night at the Coliseum will mean that Yusslff Mahmout, the Turk, will hie back to the old country, satisfied that there are at least two men who can beat him at the mat game.

wrestler, who also took time to dwell

upon the excellent condition of his man
