THY ISSUES DENIAL OF SPLIT WITH PUCKEy "I'll Quit Fighting When I Lose You," Packey Tells Manager.

"When I lose you as my manager I will quit fighting?" According to Emil Thiry, these were the words used by Packey McFarland yesterday when the former demanded to know what truth existed in the rei port that the stock yards battler had abandoned him. Fackey's failure to appear at Omaha & few nights ago to fight Freddie Daniels after the promoters there had Ulled the.armory "with r'J.600"p'epIe,'tnclldirig two sons" of the governor, the adjutant general of the . state militia, many state and municipal officials, together with a fair sprinkling of the clergy, started the rumor. J. "VV. Krause. Omaha promoter, visited Thiry yesterday and assured him that the failure of McFarland to get his train in time to reach the ringside has not put out the growing fire of fistic enthusiasm which has caught Omaha in its grasp. Packejr is wanted for Jan. 17, with some heavier boy than

Tommy Eresaahan, the local star, and will take no fights until then. Al Murray, matchmaker of the Buffalo club, was another guest of Thlry's during the day. Jess Willard and "One Round" Davis make up the New Year's card there, and Packey, who drew the greatest crowd the club ever saw, 'is sought for a later date. Thiry says he is still holding out for 35 per cent of the gate at the Madison Square Garden for the proposed Mc-Farland-Britton affair, due the first week in February, if Billy Gibson meets the terms. He has offered 30 per cent.

NAUGHTON CALLS PALZER HUMAN BULLDOG' AFTER HIS FIRST VISIT TO CM.1P Expert Beaches Battleground and Sees Iowan in Training; Says Giant Resembles Joe Gans in a Bigger Way.

MARTY O 'TOOLE IS MARRIED

. , Saxonville, Mass., Dec. 30. Martin J. O'Toole, better known ae "Marty" ''Toole of Framingham, the Pittsburg baseball club's $22,500 twlrler, today signed up for life in the matrimonial league. Miss Rose HefTernan of this town signed with him in the contract. Father Richard S. Burke of S: George's Roman Catholic church officiated. The service was attended by close relatives of the pitcher and his bride, along with a dozen widely known baseball players. O'Toole and his bride left this afternoon for New York. They will sail the first of the coming week for Bermuda. Upon their return they will reside In Boston until O'Toole leaves for Hot Springs. Ark., to join the Pirates early in March.

Los Angeles, Dec. 30. After seeing Al Palzer's, Tom O'Rourke's set-to with his partners at 'Doyle's Vernon camp yesterday afternoon, a prominent San Francisco writer had to remodel all his impressions formed through reading about the Iowan's ring work in the east. The bout with Bombardier Wells, above all other fights to which Palzer

It seemed, are a right uppercut, a right body blow and a short rlg-ht which, he delivers In choppy fashion much as the old master, Joe" Gans, used to' ?l.

strong points were marvelous endurance and a wind-mill style of fighting. Why, the man is as good a boxer as you would see in a day's march and has more punches at his command than the average pugilist. Palzer certainly is a more warlike individual than his rival in the white hope line. Everything about him suggests the human bulldog. With his sparring partners he is good natured and considerate. He lays on just hard

Palzer works a straight left In the good old-fashioned way. He has a left back-hand which Is probably a relic of the days when his style of fighting was more elemental. It isn't by any means a pretty punch, nor yet an effective one,

enough to make things interesting and , and as it is the one thing that makes

ARTIE HOFMAN IS "COMING BACK"

Pittsburg, Pa., Dec. 30. Speed. That is what Fred Clarke started after when he let Mike Donlln go, for Artie Hofman Is coming back. Artie gives the information himself in a letter to Clarke. With Hofman his old self, the

Pirates can do without Donlln. Hofman, in a letter to Clarke, says he has recovered his health and that he is fifteen pounds heavier than last year. Clarke regards the transfer of Hofman as the actual beginning of the dissolution of the great Cub machine. According to Clarke, Frank Chance kept Hofman out of a regular berth for years just to keep his regular players up to the limit. Hofman could play any position except pitcher or catcher. This fact kept Stetnfeldt going longer than he would otherwise; it kept Tinker hustling and forced Evers along at second base long after he should have ciult because of nervous breakdown.

there Is never a trace of meanness about him when a jarring return punch comes his way. He acts, in fact, like a man who knows how to keep his fighting spirit bottled up until there is real occasion to use it. He had for sparring partners today Charley Horn, the San Francisco heavyweight, and Al McCluskey. It was In the bout with Horn that the Iowan was seen at his best. To begin with, he knows the value of countering. He seems to prefer retaliating in that way to blocking punches, although he caries his methods and blocks when he feels like it. Horn rarely landed on face or body

Palzer look ungainly, he might discard it with advantage. To sum up Palzer style he Is not one of the fellows who depend upon haymakers or chance swings. He stands close and has a good eye for openings. He knows how to time his punches and he varies his style, directing equal attention to both head and body. Sporting Los Angeles is evidently in a quandary over the New Year's day contest. Opinions are so equally divided that the men are selling at even money, and there's nothing to indicate that either man will forge into favoritism before the all-important day.

western end of the circuit at Mussey's rooms. Stanley Kandul, Walter Lauben and Andrew Harris have been

MATHEWSON SAVES COLLEGE GIRL Pueblo, Colo., Dec. SO. Christy Mathewson, pitcher of the New York Giants, saved a Pueblo society, girl from the wrath of a college principal

during the world series, accordlngr to a story which became known today. Miss Kdwina Vorles, daughter of Attorney Harry P.

Otherwine we will b lucky to be in the running."
