PUGILISTIC NOTES. "Battling" Nelson, who Is scheduled to mix matters with Ad Wolgast in Milwaukee on October 13, is working at Lewis' gymnasium. Nelson puts in over an hour's time in boxing and different forms of exercise. In preparation for "his ten-round bout with Mike Gibbons at Kenosha on October 9. "Spike" Kelly boxed four rounds at O'Connell's gymnasium yesterday. Kelly went two rounds with "Young" Izzo and two with Jimmy Travers.

Another Hammond man, namely, Fred Dcrgman, who was last year the star pitcher on the Hammond club when that team was a member of the Northern Indiana league, Is looming up as one of the best in the Chicago semi-professional ranks, especially In their last few weeks of baseball play of the season. The Riverviews, who hold third place in the race and on which team Hersman is the leading pitcher, are hot on the trail of the Gunthers these days and the team has a. good outside chance to nose Niesen's men out of the

title if they can win three games from

Jack Carney's Logan Squares Saturday and Sunday. One game will be played on Saturday, with a doubleheader following: on Sunday, all of the games being billed at Gunther park. A triple victory for the Riverviews will place them In second place, only one-half game behind Niesen, with the final battle of the schedule billed for next Sunday. The Lopan Squares can win second place by taking three. Advance dope on the trio of srames gives the Riverviews the edge, although it does not look probable that either club will clean up the whole series. Kmniet O'Neill, manager of the Riverviews, will pitch "Bill" Tonneson Saturday in an effort to win that game. On Sunday the burden will fall on Fred Bergman, who will be sent to the slab to capture both shames. To make the task much harder for Bergman, the Logan Square manager.

CLABBY A SLIGHT FAVORITE OVER SAILOR ON COAST

Fight Fans Pleased That

Differences Over Referee Are Settled.

HAMMONDJND. Phone 767 158 State Street

San Francisco, Cal., Oct. 3. The row over the referee for the Clabby-Petros-key bout here tonight was only a tempest in a teapot affair. For a while yesterday Parente, manager of Petroskey, kept a stiff upper lip and vowed that there would be no backdown on the part of the sailor or himself. It is said, however, that Farente'a friends advised him that he had taken a wrong stand in objecting:- to Ben Sells and presently Parente began to falter. Later In the day, when it was told to him that many believed Petroskey was wishing himself out of the affair with Clabby and had picked on a flimsy excuse.. Tarente was ready to explode. He quickly ROt'in touch with his principal and they were ready to capitulate hours before the time set by Coffroth for them to make final declaration. "I am triad that the matter was fixed up amicably," said Coffroth. "The Clabby-Petroskey match Is an Important one, and I know the sports are

anxious to sio it. My stand in matter was simply that Selip Is one of my club referees. Jim Griffith is the I any boxer who does not care to have either of these men act as referee need not sijrn to box under my auspices. Any one who takes the trouble to inquire will find that all the clubs in the east have their official refereet.. Of course, care must be taken in making; the selections, but it's the only way a promoter can be sure of his ground for a minute. It does away with all the wrangling which hinges on the choosing of referees, and gives a matchmaker a chance to give proper attention to other details." As far as can be learned, the trouble in the Selig matter was started by busybodies who whispered in Petroskey's ear that he would not get a square deal from Selig. It is thought that some, other ring Judge who had his eye on the job first contributed the

unsettling of the sailor's mind. "While the public may not suspect it, there is more jealousy among professional referees than there is among Portola girls, and frequently leads to compli-

cation. Anyhow, Tetrofekey i.i now satisfied that Selig will be impartial in passing upon the merits of tonight's contest. For that matter, those who patronize latterday boxing bouts are so thoroughly grounded in the fine points of the sport that it is undoubtedly hard for a referee to give a wrong decision and get away with It. This, of course, has no reference to matches in which one man has a clear lead. When there is a close thing a referee is liable to err as any other human, and it generally happens in such cases that there are as many of hi shade of opinion as there are against it.

MAROONS PREDICT DEFEAT OF INDIANA

Stagg's Football Squad Confident of Winning by Big Score Tomorrow.

Victory for the University of Chi

cago by a one-sided score in tomor- i

row's opening- game with Indiana was predicted by the Maroon football Veterans after yesterday's record breaking drill at Marshall field. Coach Stagg kept his warriors at work until after dark, and the results were to gooA that the 1912 stars, including Captain Norgren, prophesied a spectacular success for the team against Sheldon's aggregation. While Stagg refused to guess on the result, his athletes had none of his reluctance. The regulars declared they were njot suffering from gridiron bighead. But were assured that they could open the season with a score in their favor it the result of Coach Stagg's new plays and the speed of the back field. The rooters subscribed to the same sentiments.
