ASN SN A few weeks
after Bob fought Tom Sharkey in San
Francisco notices were sent out call
ing all the intersted parties of the
proposed Fitzsimmons-Corbett fight
to a conference in New York City. As
you may recall, it was decided at the
first conference, held in September, to
wait until a battleground was assured
before another meeting would be held.
As December came and the efforts of
Stuart continued fruitless, all of us
began to grow doubtful as to wheth
er the fight would be put on. But
Stuart left no stone unturned to un
cover a place and, toward the latter
part of December, received notice that
the Nevada Legisiature would put
through a bill in a few weeks which
would legalize our fight there.
B ok &
When Stuart announced at our New
York meeting that it was a certainty
that Nevada would sanction the fight
between Fitz and myself in that State
upon payment of 2 SI,OOO fee. a dis
cussion as to the date of the fight fol-
Jowed. Several late spring and sum
mer dates were named. This was not“
agreeable to Fitz or to myself. We
wanted to get together and settle as
quickly as possible. When we were
told that Nevada climate .during
March was sufficiently temperate to
warrant an open air exhibition, March
17th was suggested—and it was
adopted.
Then came the discussion over the
referee—and a bitter wrangle ensued.
Fitz and Julian insisted upon George
Siler, whom I knew to be a warm
friend of the Australian. I objected
to Siler merely because of this fact.
I recognized in him one of the most
competent ring officials in America,
but I thought that the fairest thing
possible was a reieree who had {m
friendship with eituer of us. But the
Fitzsimmons folks continued to in
sist upon Siler.
Finag{q\l turned to Tom O'Rourke,
of Bl ¢ who was there. and said:
'/"‘ 2 flet you referee, O'Rourke.
You d& ¢tfike me and I don’t like you,
but I'm perfectly willing to take a
chance on you, because 1 know that
vou aren't an intimate friend of
Bob's.”
To this Julian and TFitz also ob
jected. The wordy battle continued.
1 saw that a hopeless deadlock was in
evitable and that if it came about
negotiations would be called off and
the fight probably never would be put
on. Rather than risk the fallure of
the match to go through, I finally
said:
“All right, gentlemen, Tl'll accept
Ceorge Siler as the referee.”
Fitz and I didn’t lose much time
in going into training for the bout,
which was fought a trifle more than
two months later. Fitz, through his
pctivity in the ring during the past
few yvears was in fine condition at
‘the time, but I was rather soft and
felt that I needed a lot of strenuous
work. So T went to Nevada as quick
1v as possible and opened my camp in
Shaw's Springs, a little health re
port just outside of Carson City. Fitz
established quarters at Cook’s Ranch,
on the other side of Carson City. In
my camp I had Rilly Delaney, who
was mv trainer; Denver Billy Woods,
Jack McVey and Charley White. Fitz
took along Jack Stelzner, Ernest Roe
ber and Martin Jullan.
And then began the grind for both
of us which was to condition us for
what many persons have termed “the
(fight of a century.”
(Editor’s Note: Thig is the twen
ty-ninth chartsr of a series of arti
cles hy Jim Corbett. which deal with
the life of Bob Fitzsimmons. Few
men knew Fritz as Corhett knew him,
and so these stories reveal some in
cidents in the life of Fitzsimmons
that never before have been printed.
The next chapter will appear tomor
row.)

Have a czre,
You members of the
Amalgamated Order
Of Deadheads!
The full force of
The world-wide war
Is about to fall upon
You.
Owing to clircumstances
Over which club owners
Have no control
There is a tax
On annual passes
To games of baseball.
Each dead one,
As he passes through the gate,
Must frisk himself
For 8 cts
(Eight cents)
In regular money,
It Is against the rules
And regulations
And constitution
And by-laws
Of the Amalgamated Order
Of Deadheads
To come across at the gate.
1t is not the actual cost,
You understand;
It is the principle «
Of the thing.
A faithful mermber
Of the Order of Deadheads
Will take you out to luncheon
And buy a flock of refreshments
And pay the taxi bill
And spend $7.50
In order to save
Seventy-five cents
At the gate.
War Is what Sherman called it,
Plus 8 cts
At the gate.

West Virginia Fullback Should
|
Be Considered for All-Star
- Elevens—Baily Strong Center.
i
ORGANTOWN, W. VA. Dec.
M 10.—Is the strength of his
opposition going to keep Er
rett Rodgers, West Virginia's great
fullback, from being selected for the
majority of all-star teams this sea
son?
That is the question that Moun
taineer followers are asking every
where now. Rodgers, with three years
of great achievement behind him;
with 192 pounds of brawn and mus
cle; with tremendous speed and pow
er; with a record of not having been
knocked out in a game in his three
years, and with a record of having
been the headliner in every game in
which he has participated; with great
kicking, passing and defensive ability
—with all these gualities it certainly
seems that if any man on the West
Virginia team could make the mythi
cal all-star teams he could.
But Rodgers has exceptional oppo
sition for the palm in the persons of
McLaren, of Pitt; Berry, of Penn: Ol
iphant, of the Army, and a half dozen
others—all the leading players on
their elevens. It seems, then, that
the honor of making an All- Ameri
can place will fall to the West Vir
ginian captain, Bailey, at center, rath
er than to Rodgers. Two leading au
thorities have already selected Bailey,
and he is widely and favorably men
tioned by others.
Hager, at end, too, seems to be a
popular selection, and Ice and Har
rick, the tackles; Lentz, at halfback.
and Merideth, at guard, have received
as much notice as Rodgers. It must
be figured, however, that at fullback
Rodgers has the greatest opposition,
while at center Bailey has little. Very
few men have starred at the center
position this year, while Bailey has
been one of the most conspicuous
linemen playing the game. The same
is true to some extent of the tackles.l
West Virginia's two big and stalwart‘
men standing out conspicuously in the
field. ;
There has been ample room for
comparing West Virginia's all-star
timber with that of other leading
teams this year, as the Mountaineers
have played against Pittsburg, Wash
ington and Jefferson, Dartmouth,
Rutgers and Navy, and it is certain
that much of the consideration that
is given to all-star material will go
to these five or six leading elevens,
Rodgers weighs 192 and has played
three years of football. |
Bailey weighs 173 and has played
three year® so football. |
Hager weighs 160 and has played|
two years of football. \
Ice weighs 182 and has played two‘
yvears of football. i
Lentz weighs 180 and has played
two years of football.
Harrick weighs 196 and has played
two years of football. |
Merideth weighs 181 and has played
one vear of football. |
These men, in the order named, are
the members of the West Virginia |
team whose names should be ln('luded’
in any “honor roll” that is published.

Marcus Milligan joined the aviation

ball fan the best $2 investment he
ever had a chance to make—take it
from me.
Just as a sample of the curlous and
intimate sidelights in this work, we
have a lot about the Chicago White
Stockings at the t!me when one Wu
liam A. Sunday, now often heard of
in this community,. was a member.
There is an excellent team picture of
the whole bunch—Clarkson, Kelly,
Dalrymple, Adrian C. Anson, the Rev.
Billy—who was not at all reverend
in those days—and all the rest. At
that, it is shown that Billy wasn't
the worst of that bunch, by a long
wallop. It is recited that the old White
Sox were so wild and unrestrained
that their own manager in despair
finally employed a detective to trail
them, one at a time, and make a
full report on each man’s days and
nights and doings.
Seven of the fifteen players were too
awful for words—almost. DBut the
Rev. Billy was not among the seven,
nor was old Pop Anson, later the man
ageer, and one of the greatest lead
ers and batsmen the game has known.
It appears from this book that the
first glove ever worn on a ball field
for protective purposes was worn in
1875, by a first fiueman. Mr. Spalding
took up what was then a fad in 1877
—he was a piicher. Coming down
to more modern times, we find that
shinguards were first used by Roger
Bresnahan. I remember something
about that; it was along in 1907 or
1908, 1 think. Then (the book sets
out) the first mask was used in a
college game, in 1877. It was pat
ented in 1878, And so on. With a
wealth of anecdote and clippings from
great baseball writers, and a correct
reproduction of the most famous
baseball poem, “Casey at the Bat,"‘
and so forth, and so on. ‘
It's a great book, printed by the
American Sports Publishing Com-;
pany, and (I reckon) to be had in
Atlanta at the Spalding store. l

Students Want Games.
! ECH is clamoring for a class

' some unstated reasons the in

Reports from the Flats are that
the class gridiron stars are anxious
to get into action, but there is a
hitch somewhere,
If there was one phase of college
athletics that met with the unstint
ed approval of the S. I. A. A. author
ities, it was the inter-class games.
The one reason the Government de
sires athletics to be continued is so
that the college men may get into
trim. More men will gain personal
experience and benefit from inter
class games than from varsity par
ticipation, and it thus seems that
every effort should be made upon
the part of the Tech authorities to
encourage the inter-class strife. ‘
I More than one hundred students
will be brought into direct play, and
[the games would attract wholesome
rivalry between the respective
classes. Incifientally, the Juniors are
boasting that they will win the cham
pionship,
The only objection raised thus far
is that the games will tear up uni
forms that may be available for the
varsity in 1918. It is understood that

Ohio State Cuach Talked Himself*
Out of Victory by Asking Rule {
. *
To Be Waived. r
WERE e - :ig
By Reuben A. Lewis.
Y his strategy and cunnin‘.;
Coach Wilce, of Ohio State, pi-?.
loted hig Buckeyes to two tcon-_
secutive championships. But Mlka‘?
Donahue, of Auburn, has his ownfi
ideas about strategy. For the midget,
leader of the Plainsmen admits th‘.a.t
Wilce talked himself out of the Au
burn game. ’
Substitutes wag a dire point with '
Donahue this season. When his reg-.
ulars were disabled the reserves
could not hold the opposition. But
at all events Wilce came to Donlhu.‘,‘i
before the battle at Montgomery and
inquired if Auburn would waive thqg
rules which prevented a player with
drawn from the game from re-en~
tering the same period. He explain
ed that he had a comparatively lmljé@
squad, and that it might be neec: %5
sary. 2
Mike, somewhat like the fox, con
sented.
In the third period Pete Bonner,
after a hard fight against Bole .
Courtney, seemed to be “ligh 8
ed,” and Mike thought that
been battered so hard that it we Y
be best to yank him for a while¥
Blackshear, a 150-pounder, repla '
Bonner and Ohio State pro eded
down the fairway. In sweeping
strides, Stinchcomb, Wieloman and
Friedman advanced 70 yards to the
10-yard line. Suddenly the blonds
head of Bonner was seen towering
on the gridiron. He tapped the ref-y
eree on the shoulder and replace
Blackshear. Ohio State’s drive wall
checked, and Auburn held the West{l
ern champs to a scoreless tie.
“That's one instance where the op~"
posing coach talked himself out of
a game,” chuckled Mike as he told
about the strategic blunder.
