WHITING 6SBB8BBB8BB8888HBBBBBBB888B8BBBg8/BHM9BBM8gggB8BP' GOLF MATCHES POSTPONED Will Jim Jeffries Fight? Still the Burning Question Son Francisco, Oil., Sept. 2*.—When James J. Jeffries reorhe<1 Ix»s Angeles yes terday. It Is nlleged that he gnve out a statement to the effeot that he hod no Intention of returning to the prise ring. BUly Delaney made the following state- meat when shown Jeffries' statement from Los Angeles: '•Jeffries will light, there la no ques tion about It I don't care what he snys In Los Angeles, he Is going to fight ngnln. 9 Why, he wants to light, and If let alone will take no urging on the part of the friends from New York to California to get him back In the gnme. “I can not understand bow he ever came to make such a statement, and I t>ellere that something was Influencing him." Asked what this Influence was, Delaney admitted that he thought Jeffries' wife had been pleading with Jim to leave the ring. "But let me tell you that Jeffries wants to fight again. He admitted In Hnn Fran cisco before a half down of his lu»*t friends that he was willing to go hack Into the ring. He was willing to try his strength, and there Is no question about the fact that be Is the greatest fighter In the. country today. •There Is not a man between here and New York that has the ghost of a chnnee j to whip tho ex-chnmplon. If ,the In- j fluence can I* brought to bear with suf ficient weight, Jeffries will soon be In bis old-time fighting trim, and willing to meet the l*o*t man now In the game In this or’ any other country.*’ "What! What do you think of him?"— Billy Delaney. "What do you think of him?"—Eddie Graney. "What do you think of him?"—Jim Cot froth. ••It must be that climate."—Cslonel Mar tin llrndy. "Bet he never said It!"—Morris Levy. "What’s the use?"—Hurry Cdrbett. These are just a handful of remarks grab- lied at random from the expressions that tripped from the Il|»s of sports today when It was noised around that Jeffries dis claimed all Intention of getting back Into the fighting game. If Jeff had said on his arrival In Los Angeles that be had simply put up a little Joke on Delaney, Graney and a few others, as punishment for stringing him about fight ing again,'he might have gotten away with It, but to enter a denial of any declaration of doing so was too much. The select few who were privileged to hear Jeffries de-* clare that he Intended to take up pugil ism ngnln are fully persuaded that he meant what he said. They are posited over his refutation of the published re ports. Tin Ran sounds Hard to Find an Opponent For Big James Jeffries By TAD. New York, Hept. M.-Now that Jim Jef fries has slgulfled his willingness to meet ’ the best there Is for the championship of ' the heavyweights wo are wondering who : this best man Is. There are three, however, who nre In the legitimate class sad until the best of them la found there should l» two bottles. The best men In the ring today In the heavyweight division are Jack O'Brien, Jack Johnaon and Tommy Burns. Jack O'Brien beat Bob Fltaslmmons, glv- Ing him a atandlng In the big division. Tommy nurns beat Mnrvln Hart, who had claimed the title, and therefore Is entitled to notice. Jack Johnaon has beaten all the black men who have tackled him. The man who beata the other two la tht man who wo would want to ace meet tho big fellow. - Al Kaufman and Berger are young, ambi tious and big. They are the youngest of the heavyweight*. A battle lietween these men should put either one In the rnnks of the contestants, but Berger does not want anything to do with Kaufman, strange to say, and would rather try and bluff bla way into a big loser's end with one of the It Is to be hoped tho managers will make these men show before matching them with Jeffries. Bight now there nre sports who would liet that JWT can lick any two meu In one night, and If we had a general trylng-out the situation would lie cleared a whole lot. Jack Johnson Is the first mnn to make n challenge. He will meet any heavyweight In the world, any rules nnd winner take all. Would any of the others risk their title unmet with auch an offer? Not yet—and never. PICTORIAL FOOTBALL NOTES /SmThtcst ] ( >** / IF BftAiN INSTEAD of BRAWN CONTINUES to BE THE ORDER O* 7 TH/N65 I WE LL SOON HAVE THIS HARVARD^ VATEST UNIFOUM IDEA MIMHIMIIHMIII League Standings Cumberland Will Not Have Football Team This Year Cumberland University will not have a football team this year. Athletes at the university will have to content themselves with liasketball and tennis and watching Caatle Heights, a local preparatory school, play the great fall game. The Cumberland Weekly, the college paper, aaya In Its Inst faaue: "For good and sufficient reasons. It has been thought best by the faculty, as Is well known, not to have any football team at Cumberland University this fall, but the prospects nre most excellent for hnsketball j and basebrfll. The tennis court, too, Is now '■ very popular, showing that Cumberland * University students still (relieve In healthful f exercise. Castle Heights will, however, • have a series of games ou Cumberland Held, i which, we trust, will receive the most lib- i era! patronage and support possible from »• the studeuta and Cumberland University." Just whnt the "good nnd sufficient ren- i font" are can only be surmised at this dls- * tanee, hut there are several happenings of the past well kuown here that have proba bly contributed toward putting an end to the game at the Lebanon college. The financial situation la doubtless the rontroll- , ing factor. It takea money to get n foot- ♦ ball team atarted. and It takes still more ! mosey to keep It going. In a small place ( ■>Uke Lebanon gate receipt* are naturally light The Cumberland teams In the pant for that reason have played nearly all their games away from home, meeting the col- ' legea In tha larger cities where good crowds could be Mwa. Their ahare of the re ceipts,' after paying traveling expenses, hna on but few occasions left a balance on the right side of the ledger. During the past few years, or since Cum berland hna forged to tho front In the football world, the athletic department of the school lias had a financial backing It had never before enjoyed. It la understood that this support cannot be given this year, and the students cannot rnlse enough mouey among themselves nnd by (>opn!nr subscrip tion to put a team In the field. Flnnelnl affairs were not alone responsi ble for the decision not to put -out an eleven. There were other considerations that might have kept down football even had ample ninuey been available. The new football rules alone might have done so, ns the changes made hnvo caused a good many colleges to withdraw until conditions be come more settled, nobody knowing juat wlmt Is going to be the finnl result of the hig changes made, it Is well known, also, that t'nmlterlnnd hnn not hud tnuooth sail ing on the score of professionalism. There have !>een charges more or less openly made of professionalism every year ngnlust the Lebanon t>oy*. This has caused considera ble frirtlou nnd It umy be that Cumberland would rather gqt out than have this con tinual. Rome of the hard fooling engender ed lm* been carried Into the Southern Inter collegiate Association, und It mny have been thought heat to let that quiet down. At any rate, whatever the reason, Cum berland is out of football for at least this year. CANT FINISH. GOLFMATCHES TRAWICK TOURNAMENT P08T- PONED FROM DAY TO DAY FOR VARI0U8 REASONS. Between mobs, alarms, rumors and bum weather, the Trawlck golf touruameut Is having Its troubles and la advancing very •lowly to Itgrtermfnatlon. The only match played Tuesday was la*-’ tween J. G.

BASEBALL DOPE HOW KELLY COACHED THE TEAM Minneapolis, Minn., Sept. ffi.—Now (hat tho bnaclmll season la over, It will got hurt t» let tho public la on a little Joke that the ball players have been laughing at wince August 22. It It on Joe O'Brien, president of the league. After the InquUltlon at Milwaukee In Augiiat, O'Brien left Kelley, aa he thought, high and dry. He had banished him from the tH»nch, and naturally Joseph thought ho had chaaed him off the grounds. Then Kelley drew the club carpenter to one aide, and the *two ascended the pen nant pole In center field to have a talk where It waa quiet. They came down. The carpenter dug up hla saw, hatchet and soma planks, anil Michael hied him away to a department atoro and bought several rolla of heavy wire netting. The carpenter cut out a nice panel Just back of the players' bench ou the Minne apolis aide of the grandstand. It was a panel 18 Inches deep and 7 feet long. Then Michael had his wire screening tacked up. Tho carpenter built a house around alwut tho ntmoaphore and the hole, ami put on a door and lock. Then he constructed a bench for Michael and the king of Nlcol- let park mounted hli throne, ft worked nicely. It gave a splendid view of tho hall park In the whole, and the manager could whisper to the players aa they oat on the bench, and they could hear him. Ills head waa not 10 Inches from their cap*. He could signal them when the team was on the field, or to the baao runner by changing the position of hand on the screen. He was complying with Joe’s ultimatum that be could not alt on the bench, but hla compliance with the rule made Joe a smile all over the circuit. Not a player In the league would tip It off to Joe, although It la a safe wa ger that every bne of them knew of Jr. Out-of-town scribes wondered how the miller team could keep on playing win ning ball so far removed from Kelley's advice and counsel. They were not. They had It all the time. Joe was circum vented completely and "the coop" came to !>e a laughing post all around the dr* cult. It wua _ w gave Minneapolis the benefit services and kept him from running tor« on the field and biting the umpires o the calf of the leg when they were bad. FRACTURED SPORTS For a youngster with a tail-end team, ritcher Glase has done great work for the Boston Americans. New York fans say that tioth Gotham teams would have had the pennants cinch ed had JdcGraw and Griffith cut out the umpire-baiting.

Grant, of Jersey City, nnd Gettmnn. of Buffalo, nre the only reg ular men In the select dans. Pitcher Ned Kenmi, of the Louisville American Association team, has a batting average of .347 for fifty-five games. Great work for a sisbber. In the series for the world's champion ship, which will follow the close of the two pennant r*Ce*, the Chicago Nationals are hot favorite*. The average fan doin'* nit Sfimiethfng like this: The Chica- guc« halt Ul« Natioual League pcuuuut cinched, and from now on all they have to do la to take care of themselves, and they will lie In great shape for the series. It D money to tusrhles that the winner of the American league pennant wl|l be busy every minute to the close of the season. Every Indication points to a heart-break ing pace until the finish, and the team that lands at the top 1n the American' League Will lie pretty nearly all in. Moat likely It will be a repetition of laat year’s New York-Phlladelphla games. The Olants had plenty of time to rest before the series, bat the Athletics had to play under, a full head of steam right up to the very last. It Is probable that the two winners will battle under the tame conditions this fall. Have something down on the Cuba If you want to cash la the tip from the talent.

When the team played In Montgom ery for the first time this season, Charley ran across "Red" Phil Ehret snd "Pop" Frank Welkart In front of the Gienmore hotel one night after supper. Red and Charley started talking chlckeAs. Ehret said there was a man near Montgomery who bad the best gams cocks and as fine a hunch of stags as there was In the world. Charley dtiagreed with Red, and the argu ment went on. Before they realised It, the city lights had gone not. "Gee! What time le It?" asked Charley.

Bucky Thiel used to play second base In the Western League. Those who have aeen him cavort around the keystone bag at lied Elm park have probably wondered where Buck got hla knowledge. "That guy used to lie a peach In Omaha," vouchsafed Nick Carter, who was a team mate of his there, "ne was the short stop for fair, and helped them win the pennant the last time they landed It." Buck nodded modestly. "But I never conld stand the base-runner coming nt me when I-was fielding a ball,” he said, "and I prefer the simple life of the outfield for mine."—Memphis News Hclmttar.
