than likely that Heading will use "steam

out some lively passages.

I have any number of friends who would
not attend u light under any consideration
on that dny. Rather than deprive them
of the opportunity of seeing the fight, I
belli out for a postponement. I believe
that there are thousands who will ap
plaud mo for making tho change.
Of course, If Mr. Rlckarc! mid his part
ner. Mr. MeCtnckon, had Insisted upon
my lighting Moran on tho original date,
I would havo done so. Although I had a
rather scvrio cold, I am satisfied that If
It wero absolutely necessary I could have
gotten Into shape.
I believe that oven If a man does fol
low lighting for a llvllhood there Is no
reason why ho should not respect the
religious beliefs of his friends.
As many may now remember, my fight
with .Tnek Johnson In Havana was to
take place on 1. aster Sunday. I wanted to
change the date, but nt that time hud no
sny In the arrangements. The date wns
changed to tho following Monday, thereby
respecting the feelings of tho folks In
Cuba. And, believe me, I wns Just as
delighted as they.

NEW BUILDING
NEEDED HERE FOR
BIG TRACK MEETS
" 1 1 11
M u n i ci p a 1 Auditorium
Would Attract Athletes
From All Over Counntry
I. C. A. A. A. A. EVENT
Vlicrt riilladclphla notj! It .municipal
ntnlltorliitii tliero ought to bo n great boom
for Indoor ntlilctlcs In this city. At pros
rut I'lillmlclphla docs not possess a slnslo
tlor-ent indoor track. Those, nt tho various
I urmorlcn nre not only far too small, but
slneo spiked shoes nro not permitted,
every competitor risks serious Injury.
The present Convention Halt cannot be
properly heated nnd la likewise too lnac-,
ccsilule
II Is hoped to havo tho new municipal'
nudltoriuiii so constructed that It will bo
, possible to lay a (rood-sized, track on
uhlili tho men cnu uso spiked' shoes and
which will havo seating accommodations
I for from ln.OOO to l.",000 spectators. With
such nrcommodatlons this city Bhould bo,
nhlo to conduct Indoor meots more sue--isfullv
nnd under better conditions than
nm other city In America.
At norm 119 the proper' conditions nre
nxmircd application, should bo mado for
the nliiui.il Indoor meet of tho Intercol-,
IcRintc Ansoclutlon of Amateur Athletes
of Aincricii. held tho first Saturday In'
March .mil now BolnB to Now York' nn
nunllj hecnuse no other city can offer thoj
proper lu'cotnmodatlons. That would
brlnp to tills city also tho nnnuat con
vention of tho I. C. A. A. A. A., which
linn been meeting In New York almost
from tlmo Immemorial.
Those who wnnt to see Philadelphia,
properly advertised should realize that
this big meet nnd convention nre wbrth
working 'for. First of nil, there should
be some co-opcrntlon between the. Uni
versity of Pennsylvania Athletic Associa
tion nnd the A. A. U. officials for the pur
pose of seeing that when tho plans for
this nuilltorlum nre completed nothing1
bo left umlona to make It suitable for
conducting tho greatest .Indoor meets In,
America.
Just now Philadelphia has tho reputa
tion of being a. poor city for lndooor
games, but the reasons for It are those
given nbove. It Is possible to ovoroomel
all theso objections nt one blow. Phlla-
dclphin now conducts tho groatest; and,
most popular outdoor athletic carnival In
America In tho University of Pennsylva
nia's two-day relay carnival, which was
witnessed last yenr' by 20,000 spectators!
and attracts moro every year. That samo
management could pack tho Municipal
Auditorium for an Indoor meet.
