US M MIN I MAYREFEREE TITLE BSITLE Ry Ed. Curly. NEW YORK. June 7. —While Jack Johnson and Jim Flynn are getting ready to 'Tn battle on the Fourth at Las Ve gas. N. M.. the natives are becom ing-insistent that the referee shall be a resident of that town. The man that is being strenuously shoved to the front as the proper individual to do the counting, if such should he necessary, is Mark Levy, the leading sporting author ity in New Mexico. The demand is so strong for Levy that Jack Curley, the pro moter of the tight, is going to sug gest his name to Johnson and Flynn. Curley intends to do some urging for thr selection of Levy. He feels that a local man in the ring would be a big attraction, and add a few kopeks to the gate re ceipts. For, despite the fact that the world’s championship is in the bal ance. the box office will play a very prominent pa"l. As Levy's repu tation in the Southwest is of the highest, there is a big probability that he may be chosen. V » • « Despite the fact that Leach Cross managed tn slip a few over on Knockout Brown Monday even ing (to the latter's disgust and amazement). Danny Morgan re ceived a wire yesterday offering Brown a battle on the coast with Willie Ritchie, or a local man. Tom O'Day, the San Francisco promo ter, sent the. message and said the affair would he twenty rounds and take place on June 29. Touching on the recent bout, Mr. Morgan, to put it mildly, is great ly incensed. "Why. the way Cross fouglit Brown was something shameful In the first round he threw Knockout through the ropes and hurt his head so badly that the kid didn't feel good after that. Leach back-heeled, trod on Brown's toes, wrestled, hugged; in fact, everything else but bite. If that's the war to tight, men I'm going to teach Brown all the rough tactics ; imaginable." FATHER GAVE FREE BEER WHEN SON FANNED BATTER! WASHINGTON June 7. A riot was nearly caused on Pennsylvania ave nue, in the heart of the city, as a re sult of the pride displayed by a saloon keepei in the pitching of his son. Joe Engle. young ball player, who was discover! d b.\ Manage) Griffith, of the Nationals pitched for his team agaanst the Browns at St. Louis re cently. Ait ele-. iric- << oreboard, show » ing .the .progress of the game, is sus pended from a no -pi tw office next* door to the saloon run by Engle’s fath - ' er. The'latter announced to the crowd that he would srnv fire beers every time his son < ant ed a St. Louis player . to. strike out. Ever., lime a St. Louis batter, struck out the. police thriatened to turn in’a riot call. The saloonkeeper finally sent a tele gram to his son, asking him to please stop pitching.

The first and most natural ques tion that this subject brings up is: "Is there such an appeal?’’ I should answer very definitely. "Yes." Now, of course, I do not say that a boy who all his life had been an anaem ic invalid and to whom all athlet ics or any physical activity was of definite discomfort, would, by the very fact of choosing Hie ministry as a life work be drawn into ath- THE BASEBALL CARD.

But what I do definitely mean is this: The boy who had always been of normal physical vigor and whose blood was in the habit of moving swiftly enough to keep warm, after he had chosen the ministry as his life work, would not by that very fact have to give up all the pleasure and good which could come to him from well trained muscles in full play, from sound lungs filled deep and from a strong heart that joys in sending great streams of blood coursing on their way. There is another way to tell the same story. It Is this: Contrary to popular opinion, the call to the ministry is not neces- Byrd Plays Champion Stewart In Semi-Finals at Chattanooga CHATTANOOGA. TENN., June 7.—Semi-final play in all flights In the eleventh annual tournament of the Southern Golf association was begun at the course of the Chattanooga Golf and Country- club this morning In the championship flight N. M. . Whitney, of New Orleans, played J. E. England, of Little Rock, while W. P. Stew art, of New Orleans, the present champion, met F. G. Byrd, of Atlanta. The pairings in the other flights w ere: First Flight—Schwartz and Wea ver; Davidson and Bowden. Second Flight—Stahlman and Knight: Watts and Post. Third Flight—Probasco and Stokes; Martin and De wees. Fourth Flight—Morgan and Mon tague; R. G. Watkins and Baxter. Fifth Flight- Richards and Wright; Simmons and Foust. F. G. Byrd, of Atlanta, is now a strong favorite. The 1910 cham pion has shown a steady and con sistent improvement in form since his poor play in the qualifying flight, and unless a reversal over takes him will undoubtedly cop the gonfalon for the Cracker capital. His play has been the most con sistent on the local course through out the tournament. In yesterday's play Byrd defeat ed two strong golfers. In the morn ing he took J A. Selden of Macon, into camp handily. In the after noon he met the Birmingham vet eran. Bob Baugh, and trimmed him. 2-1. The matches today should be for blood. Three of the four men in the finals are former or present champions, and one—Nelson Whit ney -has won two championships. England, of Little Rock, is the only unknown in the select four.

Contrary to popular opinion, to live the life of an athlete is not necessarily to live a life of physical gracelessness, of moral decadence or of spiritual suicide. The two are not actually exclusive. You may choose either and still hold to the other. More than that, the one makes for better work in the oth er. Rather than that the choosing of one of these activities means the final repudiation of the other, they go better hand In hand. You may be able to point, out to me men that are great preachers, that can neither ride, swim, shoot and that never had a track shoe on in their lives. But whatever man you pick out as an example I will ac- ship flight. One of the men In this division is Albert Schwartz, the first Southern champion. Another is Whitney'Bouden, a 17-yeai -old player from the Country club of New Orleans, who has played sen sational golf in the tournament. The results of yesterday after noon’s matches follow.
