WELL, it's nil fettled. A guy nnmed Oliver Thomas I'ccord has been ap pointed referee of the most important thing thnt hns hnppcued in these parts since Commodore Perry, or whoever it wai. fought thnt battle with the British on the freh waters of Lake l'ric. Oliver Thomas Pecord is perfectly fntisfied with the selection, and so is every oue else except the couple of thou sand enndidates for the job, who kidded themselves nlong up to the lnt minute. The chances arc these blokes will leave Toledo and the AVillard-Dempsey fight Cat and hold indignation meetings on their special train going home. An way, the referee will be on the job. nnd if he sprains his auklc or twists his wrist so he cannot couut ten Jack Skclly, the sage of Youkcrs, N. Y., will take his place. In audition there will be n pair of judges for no reason what soever. They are supposed to disagree with the referee and make it intrickit, or something like that. In case of a disagreement the judges aud the referee can put on a battle-royal to see which one is right. That causes us to place the bankroll oti Major Kiddle, who will be the other judge with Tex Ilicknrd. tjoine day the presence of the two judges will be cplnincd. Now the only advantage we can sec is that they will hae swell seat and will sit near the newspapermen But Ollie record we all call him Ollie now i; a pretty capable person when it comes to rcferceing. He has been in the game for twenty-four years nnd the natives out here believe he is a bigger man than Marshal Koch. This Is permissible, because they have never seen the marshal. Ollie, however, hns been in 400 battles and hasn't so much as a tin ear or a split lip. He has been giving decisions indiscriminately and is considered n fair and square sportsman. Both Willard and Detnpsey nre much plensed nnd Iticknvd is jubilnut, because he would haie been the goat had there been a deadlock. Ollie broke into the boxing game when n referee ws as safe as a gput smok ing a cigarette in a dynamite factory. His first job was to officiate in a bout between a pair of smokes aud ghc a decision at the end. TttH'OKIl stepping into the ling a friend gaic htm tiro loaded ir- volvcrs. irhirh lie icoir in his hip pockets, ond as he took off hi coat no one touIJ ser them except the oudience nnd the fighters. OIIic'r decision a licit rccciitd. Jack Cnrley Pro-Willard. Con-W illard IF YOt want to pick a winner of this big brawl, keep away from Toledo. The experts change their minds every the minutes, aud after listening to their chatter the onlj thing jnu will bet on is that t lie fuss will be pulled ou July Fourth. That's a safe and sane bet ami you can go the limit. Jack Curlcj blew mto town yesterday and draped himself around a pillar in the lobby of the Sjccnr. lie had oino positive ideas about the winner of the championship light and did not hesitate to express them when a crowd gath ered. Jack hates to talk to himself. "I am here." said Curley. "to hm epry kopeck in the well-upholstered bankroll ou that young gentleman named Deinpsey. I know he is going to win. and there isn't a guj in the world who rau tout me off the bet. 1 am one of Willard's ex managers, know all about the big bum aud I want to say that Dempsey will knock hiin ttifl. That elonttatcd tramp hasn't a chance in the world, and I should know it because I am his e-mauager." Just then a strange silence fell over the crowd. Looking over his shoulder, Curley spied the huge hulk of Willard easing through the reoliug doors. They saw each other iustautly . those enemies who had sworn to knock each other's . blocks off the first time they met. The scribes and news hounds waited ex pectantly for hostilities to commence nud a big story was in the makings. They walked slowly toward each other and Curley stuck out his hand. "Hondy, Jess?" he said. "Looking tine. Glad to bee you." "Hello, Jack." replied the champion. "Glad to see you," thus carrying out the line of bunk, for every one knew- the champ and his ex-manager were indulging in hokum. Then they parted and Curley came back to the audience. "Everything I said i off." he remarked. "Willard looks better than at any time in his career, and 1 should know because I am his ex -manager. He is bigger and stronger and I don't see how any one can beat him. I can't see Dempsey now. He has no chance with the champion." AVillard staited for the door aud Curley followed him. ((J'ZI G01C, out to raise dm hits nnd pay it to sec you icnrk today," 7 "Yon certainly have surprised mr, and T am your ex- rue Got To a rJEvAJ COoK- TeeijA uJastss Too MUCH- OOR ARS TERRlBLeu bo GST 1 Ll vl.

It wa the first Wt the writer has made to the camp this week and nobody knew he was coming. Furthermore, nobody cared. A polite brakeman or blacksmith was guarding the gate and picking his teeth with a tent stake. He demanded ho we were and why, but no trouble occurred. We explained satisfactorily and escaped, thus being in condition to write some thing today. Jess worked out for us in private, there being only 5000 others in the train ing quarters. If they eer raised the price the name would be all wet. Training halves or training dollars is no name for a camp. Willard put on his act with his unfortunate trainers and made them wish they had stayed in the army or taken an easy job moving pianos. He pummeled Jack Hemple, Steamboat Bill Scott, Joe Chip and Wnltcr Monaghan until the whistle blew and the boys were glad it was all over. During the workout .we noticed the difference between a champion and a trainer. The champion always has his face wiped off between the rounds and somebody always asks him how he feels. The trainer can jump in trie lake and no one will stop him. Jess looked better than the Inst time wesaw him, although his workout was terrible. He just kidded the cash customers along and breezed through the practice like an actor at morning rehearsal. However, his arras looked stronger, there were undulating muscles which have fought their way to the surface through rolls of fat and the champion had every appearance of n man who Is in good phjsical shape. HIS boxing still it of the bush league variety, but he is not letting himself out. 11V shall see ichat ice shall see in the next neck. Curley Ends Day a Dempsey Rooter DEMPSEY, looking a trifle drawn, stepped through three rounds with the Jamaica Kid and Jock Malone, the Kid getting the extra session. Jack was not the tearing panther we expected to see, although lie soaked the Jamaica Kid on the whiskers with a short right in the third and had him ready to do the high dive when Jimmy De Forrest called it a day. Jack is getting too fine and will find it hard to keep In shape. After the workout we saw Jack Curley. "How do you like it?" we asked. "Great!" was the reply. "I was for Dempsey when I came here and now I tblnk be will win hands down. All of that stuff 1 said about Willard doesn't go, Dempsey will be the next champion and I will bet real money on it." Now what are you going to do when the dope is as changeable as that? however, every fistic expert on the scene is expected to tell his readers who will win, and as I have modestly placed myself in that class I shall pick not one winner but three. These are sure-fire bets and can't go wrong. THE icinners in the Willard-Dempsey fight are: 1. Tex Richard. S, Toledo. 3. The hotels. f Stop! Have You Left Anything? E&j rnEX will get about a million washers, the city will get all that Tex over s' ,l, JL loolt and the hotels will take the remainder. There's no chance to play a ) (feient ticket and the person who escapes with more than a return ticket f fceate will be a curiosity. ' The hotels are playing it safe. In every room there is a sign on the-loor Kvr wWen you can't help seeing as you go out. It says : ' ' l "8top1 Hare jou left anything?" w c That means you might as well leave ail of your concealed valuables in the t 'rtm or five them to the hotel clerk, because they will get everything you '.just the same. 4OTNU:r, it saves trouble.

The Double Effect AH WE understood it, some time ago Habc Ittith would never be able to maintain a select position in baseball soc'iety if he attempted to pitch nud play the outfield in a double occupation. So far, as a pitcher, he has won fie games and dropped two; as an out fielder he has been up around .31.'5. rllll eminent Habc apparently has no intimate icgnid for what ought to happrn when you defy the dope. Here and Titer e CLljVKLAND and Chicago, in the American League, have been hitting the ball harder than any other clubs. In the National I,eugue. New York and Cincinnati have maintained the lending offensive roles. These four clubs have shown the stoutest attneks. Among them they hac been running 1-2 most oftlie year. It begins to look as if the ISase Hit still occupied by a humble nook in the old game, despite ail the intricate potpourri and bric-a-brac' that have been interpolated wa the statistics of late years. THIS Icadi up to the old argument: Is it better to have hitters who ran hit other pitchers, or pitcher who can stop other hitters!

If this collection of lawn tennis flesh doesn't bring about a championship rcyiwil of more tlun .surprising not" this forthcoming August at Forest Hills, Long Island, there is no such animal as the giraffe.

PVllX this far ahead the tourney gives rare promise of passing old i heights reached before the war. Observations A two-foot putt can make a man Cuss louder than a train wreck can. And even a dubbed mashic shot Can male one rave an awful lot. t NO WONDER the Willard -Dempsey conflict is luring the populace out. There were only 4.10 pounds of human flesh in the ring when Johnson met Jeffries, whereas this second Hickaid atTalr will present at least 445 pounds to the public gaze. 0I1SERVE how the game has advanced when Corbett met Fitz at Cnrgon, City more than twenty years ago there were only :!4."i pounds tossed into the inclosure.
