The Man Who Is on the Level Does Not Have to Impress this Fact on Other People
NEWS WRITTEN BY LEADING EXPERTS
FIGHT FANS ON EDGE
FOR BATTLE BETWEEN
RIVAL WHITE HOPES
WILLIAM J. SLATTERY
The fight tans are praying for a bright day and sunny skies tomorrow
afternoon, so that they may comfortably watch Arthur Pelkey and Gun
boat Smith wallop each other in the 20 round heavy weight bout that is
causing a stir all over the world. It all depends upon the weather now
and :t remains to be seen whether or not Promoter Jim Coffroth gan
overcome the one bloomer he ever tossed—that of last December 10.
All indications point to a hurricane mixup between the big fellows,
provided that the elements do not interfere. They look lit for a battle
worth a page in the Queensbeny book, and if they fail to provide the
necessary excitement, thousands will wear a sorrowful look.
iuc uig icuows will Qo tueir lasts
work today and it will be only oi
light variety of just enough to keep
pfe their muscles well warmed up. TWO
weeks of the strenuous stuff has fit
ted them both for a grueling bout.
If either is heir to a single physical
defect, the same Is not visible to the
naked eye. They look trained to the
second.
That a knockout will end the bat
tle is the opinion of those who pride
themselves on knowing something
about ring events. The records of the
mem is proof positive that they carry
with them that very necessary pugi
listic asset known as the wallop. Both
have proven this in many important
fistic attractions of the past.
SMITH STILL. FAVORITE
Smith ie still the strong favorite at
odds of 10 to S. although the Pelkey
admirers have been sending in their
money rapidly during the last few
days. As is usually the custom, the
short end boys simply waited till
they got what they believed was
tight. Hundreds of them are still
waiting, so it looks like plenty of
action at the last minute.
For the first time in his life the
Gunner will find himself an idol in
the city where champions are made.
When he used to fight around here as
a four rounder, and even as a 20
rounder, he was generally the object
of jeers and hoots, because they
doubted his gameness. Try as he
might, he never succeeded in showing
tnem in the past.
But it's a different story now.
Smith, the once despised and socalled
' yellow hope," is now a full fledged
near champion, the best big white
man In the game, in the estimation of
several thousand San Franciscans. He
gained this fame by his wonderful
work in eastern rings after he lefl
this city practically a hopeless pos
sibility.
They are placing- their faith in the
Gunner to startle them with his punch
■when he lines up with the monster
from Canada. Smith is the smaller
man and will be at a disadvantage in
height, weight and reach, but still he
looks good enough to the majority
of them to Install him a 10 to 8 favor
tfite. Quite a compliment to a small
Jman who was once despised.
f PEU4.EY MI"ST SHOW FANS
Pelkey Is at a disadvantage for the
reason that he Is fighting on his rep
utation alone, and his ring career Is
not even long enough to give him the
rating which has fallen to many hopes
who perhaps were not even so deserv
ing. It's too bad for his own sake
I hat he did not make the trip sooner
md engage with a lesser light of the
ring.
The Pelkey followers are banking
mostly upon what Tommy Burns says,
'•"or years the former king of the
heavy weights has been looked upon
aa one of the shrewdest judges of tal
ent before the public. He is the dis
. overer of Pelkey, the man who an
nounced to all the world that the tow
ering gladiator from Canada is the
next heavy weight monarch.
Pelkey has done all that they could
expect of him so far as the gym is
•oncerned. but the old timers all know
I hat there's a lot of difference be
tween gym work and a regular battle.
They have learned this from bitter
experiences of the past and it is now
n unwritten law that they must see
•i strange fighter in a regular fight
before they fall for him.
"I would have shown him before If
I had the chance." said Burns last
evening, "but things broke badly for
me. lam not at all disappointed that
he I* on the short end, but, believe
me, if-they ever saw him in action he
would be a 2 to 1 shot over the Gun
ner. I look for him to knock Smith
out within 12 rounds. That's how
"much I think of him.''
BTRAS WANTS TO BET
Burns etill has a nice little chunk
of money—something like $6,000 —
which he wants to bet on Pelkey
against $12,000. But the sports of
San Francisco oan't see why the odds
should be 2 to 1. They have made
their own price, and it is not likely
k that tn*y will give the manager of
th # Canadian any edge, so he may be
disappointed.
But Burns Is acting in a business
like sort of way. He frankly says
that he came here In the belief that
Smith would sell at 2 to 1 over his
man and that he would take a chance
and gamble his money. He has been
looking high and low for the short
odds stuff ever since, but up to the
preaent time it has not made Its ap
pearance. Therefore Tommy is sore.
The Gunner has not made any
wagering speeches, and neither has
his manager, Jim Buckley. They are
looking to win his battle and reap the
harvest that will come after it. They
are not thinking about the take a
chance end of the game at all. But
they are already making preparations
for an invasion of Europe to tackle
one of the big smokes, and this is
proof positive that they have lots of
confidence left.
A great crowd will surely gather at
the T>al«r City arena if the weather Is
fair. The town Is' full of fight. The
fans are anxious to see a couple of
heavy weight aspirants in action, and
If the weather favors them they will
flock to the arena by thousands.

COLLEGES TAKE
UP SUMMER
BASEBALL
NEW YORK. Dec. 31.—Summer base
ball and many of the athletic evr?s
that beset tlie college student were
discussed at the annual convention of
the National College association yes
terday, when more than 100 dele
gates, representing 112 niverslties and
schools and a student population of
142.000. took part in the effort to
solve the knotty problems which the
association has endeavored to over
come during the three years of its
existence.
While many sports followed by col
leges in this country received a hard
rap, summer baseball came in for par
ticular attention. Nichols of Harvard
said summer baseball should be pro
hibited, and his views were supported
by many of the delegates. The
method of eradicating the evil from
the college world furnished a lively
theme for discussion, and, although a
number of suggestions were offered,
they remained undecided.
Professor Nichols said he really had
no serious objection to boys 'playing
for money, but he said they should
not play on cllege teams. He pointed
out that the longer a man plays base
ball the worse he becomes, and at Jt>
he has to start life over again, with
no business or professional experi
ence.
HACI-'DAM. VS. SOCCER
The temperament that makes a man
a good ball player is more likely to
make him a poor business man. He
thought It right to play ball tenmpo
rarily to get money enough for a col
lege education afterward.
Soccer football, in his opinion, was
the only athletic game better than
baseball. The latter sport is inferior
to soccer, becase ib is possible in
baseball for very sperior pitching to
beat much better average minds. He
gave instances of boys Jumping over a
bat for a bet of $50 with tlie man
ager of a baseball team, tending a
soda fountain at a summer hotel for
half an hour for $50 a week wages,
and various other cases along the
same lines.
He could see no reason against a
bonafide resident playing with a sum
mer nine, where the other members
are paid for their services.
Doctor Young of Cornell did not
see why discrimination should be
made for baseball players when
swimmers and track athletes who are
possibly as needy are condemned. He
did not consider a baseball player any
more a "pro" than a waiter or a book
agent. He advocated a one year res
idence rule, with a three year limit
play on a scholarship basis, to 6top
proselyting.
George Huff of Illinois university
thought no change couid be made
while 90 per cet of the students and
people thik it is all right for a boy
to go out and earn a little money
playing baseball. He failed to ap
preciate the difference between a boy
playing ball for money and a track
athlete receiving a gold watch, or a
diamond, and why should he be a
professional and the other an ama
teur?
VERSION OF ENGLISHMAN*
A solution to the problem was of
fered by H. I>. Williams of Minne
sota, who said the association must
take a firm stand and receive the
backing of the faculties.
He suggested the adoption of the
system at Minnesota, where each ath
lete made an affidavit that he had
never taken money directly or indi
rectly, with a threat of expulsion in
case it is discovered that his affidavit
was false.
Rev. Endleott Peabody of the Grat
ton school, Englad, read a paper on
"The Ideals of Sport in England and
Ame.rica." He compared the purpose
of athletes in the two countries and
concluded by saying that the Eng
lish standards were much higher,
that "victory" is the watcflhword of
the American athlete, and that "fun"
actuated the endeavor of the English
college man.
HALL NAMED COACH
Dr. D. C. Hall has been named as
track and field coach for the Univer

LOS ANGELES IS
STRONG FOR
ROWING
With tlie entrance of tiie Los An
geles Athletic club into the rowing
game this branch of acquatic sports
is in for the biggest boom that has
ever been known since the days when
the old Pioneers and Stockton Giants
were in existence.
Vice President Garbutt of the Los
Angeles Athletic club is an enthuslas-
and is keen for the club
to revive the rowing sport. Captain
Bill Sutor of the San Diego crew,
which won the championship here last
July, is mainly responsible for getting
the Los Angeles club into line.
Sutor is at present In Los Angeles
and has urged the southern club to
take up the game again and has prim
lsed to row the club a series of three
races, one at each oourae and the
third to be rowed on a course to be
mutually agreed upon. This series of
races is to be rowed in shells and will
be an annual affair.
Sutor has also urged the southern
club to affiliate with the Pacific Asso
ciation of Amateur Oarsmen and par
ticipate in the annual barge coast
championships every year.
REGATTA IK SOUTH
At the present time San Diego is
figuring on bringing tbe Ban FVart-
H6co crews to San Diego for a re
gatta in July for the senior coast
championship ri' c and has asked the
lx)s Angeles Athletic club to get into
line and enter a crew in that race as
well.
There will be at least three of the
local crews to make the trip to San
Diego In July, and if Loa Angeles en
ters a crew that will give, with San
Diego, five senior crews In what prom
ises to be one of the greatest barge
races ever rowed in southern waters. |
The regatta between the San Diego
and Los Angeles shell crews will be
held some time In May, and imme
diately following both clubs will
tranship to the barges and work out
In the heavier type boat in prepara
tion for the Pacific coast barge cham
pionship, which will probably be held
at San Diego July 4.
HUFF MAKES SUGGESTION
George A. Huff, director of ath
letics at the University of Illinois, has
made the suggestion that in future
athletes be limited to competition in
one branch of the sport only. This Is
to apply to any universities of the
western conference, but from the
present outlook it Is hardly likely
that Huff will put his ideas' through
the conference when it meets.

"Go Slow With Cup
Defender"--Lipton
BOSTON, Dec. 30.—Sir
Thomas Lipton, chal
lenger for»the America's cup,
asked Mayor Fitzgerald, in a
letter received today:
"Kindly see to it that they
do not make the cup defense
yacht building in Boston go
too fast, as it is certainly not
encouraging when the Sham
rock is far behind."
Sir Thomas invited Mayor
Fitzgerald and his family to
witness the cup races from the
Lipton yacht Erin.
Collins Shows His
Sincerity to Mack
Recently when Eddie Collins turned
down an offer of $50,000 to play in
tlie Federal league he showed in his
refusal and In his words just how the
Athletics feel toward Connie Mack.
"Connie Is the man that made me,
and I would not jump to an outlaw
league aa long aa I were a member
of the Athletic club," is the way Ed
die put it.
Looking at the Athl«tic club from
another angle we find that Mack
looks on his players Just as they look
on him. and aa they look on each
other. Coomba not only was paid by
Connie Mack hla year's salary, but he
