JEFFRIES ONLY
REAL CHAMPION
CORBETT AND FITZ HAD NO
JUST CLAIM
Big Callfornian Holds Title Supreme
at a Result of Victories
Over Every Oppo
nent
The question Of who really wfis Cham
plon of the world is more or lan imig
and cciiiipli. ited While Jim Corbett,
Bob Fltsslmmon? and others were 1 red
itoii with being holders of the world'i
title, Jim Jeffries, up t<> the time of his
retirement, was the first and only sl
mon-pure world's champion since the
Queensberrj code has been In vogue.
To be a world's champion 11 l">xrr
must win the titles of the three coun
tries that constitute the pugilistic world
— America, England and Australia.
This Jeffries did, and he '<•- the only
man in the world who has done sn.
When Jeffries refereed the Hart-Root
fight in Nevada he publicly announced
his retirement and Statcufl he would
turn over the- championship to the
winner. Hart won, and when he en
deavored to protect it iißalnst Tommy
Burns in California he wns beaten.
Hence Burns' justifiable claim to the
championship.
To go deeply into the mntter of how
Jeffries acquired the world's title the
matter stands as follows: John L. Sul
livan was the acknowledged and undis
puted champion of America, Tom Loea
held the Australian belt and Jem Smith
was recognized as champion of England
by the British boxing experts.
Peter Jackson deflated Lees and won
the belt and title of Australia. Shortly
after the big black came to this coun
try and resumed the remarkable career
of going fifteen years without tasting
defeat. It wasn't long after this until
a new fhampion sprang up in Australia
—Paddy Slavin, known to boxing fame
as the "Sydney Cornstock."
He defeated about everybody in Aus
tralia, and during Jackson's absence
claimed the championship of that coun
try, a claim that was allowed by some.
Slavin then went to England and met
Jem Smith for the championship of
England, and, as many claimed at the
time, the championship of Australia.
This, in view of the fact tint Jackson
■was the bona fide champion of the lat
ter country.
The Slavin-Smith battle ended in a
draw. Jackson hastened to England
and defeated both Smith and Slavin,
emphasizing his hold on the Australian
title and incidentally winning the
championship of England. He held
these two titles for years.
The mighty John L. was still the un
disputed champion of America. Then
came tho memorable fiKht at New Or
leans, when the stripling With the
pompadour hair overthrew the nation's
idol, and history repeated Itself with
sadness, and the old cry of "The king
Is dead; long live the king," was heard.
All this time Jackson had remained
the technical monarch of England and
Australia. But one day he allowed
himself to be pitted against a young
California giant named Jeffries. "When
the new star wns declared a winner in
the third round, the world wondered.
It demanded a battle between Jeffries
and Fitzsimmons. The battle was ar
ranged and the man who had beaten
the champion of Australia and England
added the championship of America to
his list.
That is the whole story in a nutshell,
and can easily be verified by reading
up a little on the history of the Queens
berry realm.

Henry Berr^'is quite the busiest man

customed to doing things.
None of the usual details will be
overlooked even unto the presence of
Jim Jeffries. When Junes fust made
his appearance as sponsor of baseball
and prepared to toss over the starter,
fans in the bleachers held their breath
and reflected proudly as to how they
might tell their grandchildren of the
time when Jimmy de Jeff appeared on
the diamond.
Jim, however, has been slated for the
Job so often since then that it would
not be natural if he did not show up
to delight the initial gathering.
Mayor Harper may possibly take a
turn on the slab in which event Jeffries
will face his honor with the stick, while
Chief Kern of the police department

JOE THOMAS REGARDED
AS GREAT BALL PLAYER
Whllo It mlßht come n* ft surprise
to the baseball fan*, It probably Is true
that when Joe Thomas, the welter
weight champion of tho world, turned
professional boxer, the diamond lost
a star.
This premier boxer was one of the
most promising youngsters ever turned
out In the west, and it was only a
scratch that he took up the glove
lnstead of the mask.
1 1 has been only three years since
Thomas turned professional, and up
to that time everybody who knew him
thought he would follow the diamond
for a livelihood.
Both Frank Chance and Joe Nealon
wanted Thomas to turn professional
ball tosser, and, while he Is very much
engrossed with the boxing game at
present, the advice might take seed
at some future date.
When that baseball fan Jim Corbett

jpfTriPs go. he and Thomas pi

"pro." he was sure hs could secura ■>

L A. HIGH SCORES
SIGNAL VICTORY
DEFEATS THE CRACK OAKLAND
TRACK TEAM
Munn Gives a Wonderful Exhibition
and Tallies Thirty Points
by His Perform.
ance
Oakland high school would have been
nothing loss than slaughtered in the
track meet at Bovard field yesterday
had it not been for the services of
Munn, who scored thirty of the fifty
five points tallied by his team. Final
score stood, Los Angeles high, 58; Oak
land high. 55.
Munn was by far the best all round
athlete on the field. In the 100-yard
dash, the hammer throw, the shot put,
broad apd high jumps, he took llrst,
winning in every contest he entered ex
cept the relay. He made a hard try
to break the world's record of 52-7 nt
putting the shot, but could only reach
50-11.
Possibly the finest display of pluck
shown on the field was that exhibited
by Ted Phelps of Los Angeles high at
the pole vault. Phelps had a bad fall
early in the meet, and limped painfully.
His misfortune appeared to rile him
and when the score was announced he
and Smith of Oakland were declared
tied for second. This didn't suit Ted,
and hobbling as best he could, he kept
vaulting till he had broken the tie.
Phelps made a hard try to beat
Munn's record of 10-9, plucklly vault
ing again and again. In this, however,
he wag unsuccessful.
The relay proved the most exciting
event of the day. The count was 55-ri3,
in Oakland's favor, with the relay
counting live points.
The affair was a half mile run in
2:20 heats. The high school boys won
by almost twenty-live feet. The Oak
land lads protested that Bristol had
cut in on Munn's position before he
was six In front of him, but was
denied by the judges.
The results were as follows:

MAJOR LEAGUERS
ARE HOPEFUL
SEVERAL CLAIMING SEASON
CHAMPIONSHIPS
Comiskey Confident That the Chicago
White Sox Will Again Win
Baseball Laurels of
the Country
With the Angel baseball tram pre
paring to start on Its race for the pen
nt Saturday, diamond Interest In
genera] is arising and doings of the blp
lonsues will soon become almost of
national Importance.
Following are a few pre-season ver
sions of various managers:
Comiskey Confident
Pew teams win two world's cham
pionships in succession, but that is the
record the White Sox are going after.
We had a hard battle to land at the
top last year, but the prize was worth
the effort, and wo will be right back
In the thick of the fight this year, too,
v c start out on the training trip with
all our players in good health, and,
barring accidents, there Is every reason
to believe that the champions will give
a good account of themselves In the
long campaign to retain their title. We
are fortified against accidents as well
as It Is possible to protect the vital
points of a team. Viewed from every
angle, I think our chances of landing
another pennant are strong. We ex
pect some fierce competition the com
ing season and will be prepared for it."
Stands by Chance
"I like the outlook for the Chicago
National League baseball club for 1907 "
says Charles W. Murphy. "With the
inherent mechanical strength of the
members of the team, and the success
of our organization last season in win
ning 116 games, thus breaking the rec
ord of the world, our men should pull
together in 1907 for victory with re
newed confidence and redoubled energy
at all times. Frank Chance is the
world's greatest player and will prove
it by winning the world's championship.
I predict right now that the Cubs will
be world's champions next fall."
Griffith Cheerful
"My pitching staff Is shaping up well
now," says Clark Griffith, "and I don't
think we will miss Chesbro, though I
would like to have him with us. We
have a fine bunch of youngsters. Orth
is the only veteran on the staff unless
I call myself a regular. I think the
team will hit well. AYe were shot to
pieces nearly all last season, and In my
opinion "with our share of baseball luck
we will land the pennant. I am willing
to stand pat with the team and I am
willing to stand the consequences if we
don't land."
"Muggsy" Optimistic
"Perhaps we will not win the cham
pionship in 1907," says John McGraw.
"Whether we do or don't, I believe that
I have the material for a championship
nine, and if the players take the field,
as I hope they will In the middle of
April, I expect that wo shall not only
be able to beat six other clubs in the
league, but that we will trim the
Chicagos and get the third National
league pennant that we hoped to cap
ture last summer. I believe that we
have the strength to do this. I can't
go further than that. If I am mis
taken, I shall have to pay the cost of
the blunder."
Churchtown Strong
Patsy Donovan says: "The prospects
of the Brooklyns were never better,
figuring from the disposition of the men
In the opening practice play Saturday.
Roll's acquisition is a big factor and
with Mclntyre, Strlcklett, Seanlnn, Ea
son, Pastorius and the other pitchers in
the shape they are, we fear none of the
other clubs. Take it from me— the Su
perbas will be pressing the leaders all
the way."
Depend Upon Rube
Connie Mack says: "The Athletics
lost the nennant last year chiefly be
cause our pitchers suddenly slumped
and we had to experiment too much at
third base. I believe these two prob
lems have been solved. We expect
Waddell, Plank and Hender to show the
form which won the pennant in 1905.
This is no Idle prophecy. Whenever
these men are In good condition they
pitch winning ball. Their condition in
the past shows that, and we know that
they are in proper shape this season. I
do not say we will win the pennant, but
we will be pretty close to the top at the
finish."
Philies in Line
"Since I have been managing base
ball teams I have never made predic
tion! as to the result of penrianl races."
says Billy Murray, "and 1 don'l care
to do so now. So far as the Phlladel
1 hla club is coi rued, 1 like the make
up of the team and am confident they
will show good results. The spirit Is
there. I have been managing ii
teams for nineteen years and I have
never seen a more willing set of play
ers than those comprising the Philadel
phia team."
Hanlon Up a Tree
"It would be a Joke to try to predict
what the Heels are going to do thia
year." said Ned Hanluii. "I haven't
the slightest idea how this bunch (if
youngsters will Btack up against the
I teams of the National league,
and you can put it down thai I'm not
kulhk to make any random guesses
where I haven't any dope al all to k<>
mi. l wouldn't make any forecast laßt
year, when I knew more about the
players under me, and I most assuredly
Won't hazard my reputation mi
east when I have never seen in mtluii
half the Kids for this season."
