JIMMY JOHNSTONTO LOSE OUT ASGARDEN PROMOTER

K\V YORK, Nov. 2.?Jimmy Johnston, whohas had so much to do with boxing boutsat Madison Square (iarrleti that his namehas come to be a synonym f<>r the big en-closure, is just about ready to take his seat

on the greased skids.

(Some time today Edward K. McCall,who is receiver for the garden, expects to

come to terms with Tex Rickard and Sam-uel McCracken, promoters extraordinary,

and these two will come into active charge of all bouts at thegarden.

McCall has announced he is going to depose Johnston asmatchmaker for the Show corporation, lessees of the (lardeti

Athletic club and it is all because Jimmy did not want to makean accounting to the liking of McCall. Also McCall is dis-pleased because Johnston did not go thru with the Moha-\Veinert bout, which caused the boxing commission to ordera suspension of the garden shows and to fine the GardenAthletic club $1,000.

McCracken and Richard,

when they sign the papin, aregoing to inherit the Moha-Wel-nect affair, whether they wantIt or not and It will be the flratbout to be ataged. Rickard andMcCracken are understood to

Mhave prom lead that they will

thia match and eome say,'they even have agreed to pay

part of the fine agamet theGarden.Refore Rickard and McCracken

can stage their bouts they willha\e to go through the motion* oforganizing a club and will have toapply tor a license at the boxing

commission Jimmy Johnston Isapt to make a tuss when this timearrives, as It Is understood his con-tract for the conduct of Gardenbouts has another year to run. HeIs now In disfavor with the boxing

commission because he failed to

show up at a meeting of the com-mission In response to a subpoena.

Promoted Reno FightMcCracken and Rickard have

been associated for many years Invarious ventures, among them be-ln« the monster affair at Reno In1910 when Jack Johnson won theheavyweight title from Jim Jef-

frie*.Rickard and McCracken startled

the pugilistic world by offering apurse of $101,000 for this bout andcoming out of It with a huge profit

It was Rickard also who stagedthe bout at Goldfleld, Nev , betweenJoe Gans and Rattling Nelson, of-fering a purse that In those dayswaa considered ridiculous.

The fight attracted a greatcrowd and Rickard waa a big win-ner. His !a»t effort waa the Wll-lard-Moran bout. In which he wasassociated with McCracken andwhtch netted him a neat profit.

Rlrkard's long record of promotlng bouts shows not one unsuccess-ful affair.

Rickard la said to be contemplatlng a match between Charlev Weinert, local heavyweight, and JesaWlllard. Johnston had been try-ing to arrange a go between PrankMoran and Pred Pulton, but thisbout Is now considered definitelyoff. Ike Dorgan. manager of Mo-ran. haa wired terms for such about to Harry Sherman of St. Pauland an attempt is being made tostage It on Thankaglvlng day

Garry Herrmann May BeDropped by Commission

CHICAGO, Nor. 2 ?Carry Herr-nann may not be a member of thelattonal commission much longer.Lan Johnson, president of thetmerican league. Is objecting to

.?wo National league member* cmthe commission, and says Ameri-can club owners are strongly for

evening op the representation,preferably by making the thirdmember neutral. This wouldknock Herrmann off the board.

"I have nothing against Herr-mann personally," Johnson said,

today, "but American club ownersfeel that the National league shouldnot have two members on the com-mission, and there Is a strong un-dercurrent for a change.

"Club owners In the Americanleague believe that they Interestswould be best served by the elec-tion of a disinterested third person.Herrmann has done efficient work,but the principle 1s wrong. Poll-

tic* should be eliminated from th«national commission."

Between Onrselves\u25a0 V THE SPORTS tOITOR

DILLON AND GIBBONSIt look* as If Mike Glblions and Jack Dillon are to meet, after all

Thwy have signed to face each other in Bt. Paul on November 24This match, like ail those In which Mike Gibbons engages, will

either be a great fight or a terrible bust Mike is no halfway fighter.He Is either very good or something awful.

The best thing that can be ssld about the bout Is that It will heheld in St. Paul. Gibbons seems to fight well tn his native city. Ifthe bout were scheduled for New York, the chances would be that Itwould prove a fliile.

Mike Gibbon* is a great fighter when he cares to be. His threebig matches In New York were with Eddie McGoorty, Packey McFarland and Tod ("Kid") He failed miserably In all three of them

Dillon. It Is understood, will make 163 pounds for Gibbons sii

hours before the fight. This is not a low figure for Hoosler Jack Itshould send him Into the ring at about 166 pounds, which Is his bestrighting weight.

While the bout won't have any begrlng on a championship. It willbe Interesting enough If Gibbons cares to make It so.

tt a a a a aHOW ABOUT AL McCOYT

Is At McCoy really tne big dub that is claimed for him, or Is he

entitled to some consideration as a fighter?This question will be decided when Dillon and McCoy meet In a

10-round bout In New York, this month.Ever since McCoy knocked out George Chip in the first round of

their fight In New York, two yesrs ago. middleweights have iaughsdat the New Yorker, and many have refused to fight him.

Since thst battle. McCoy has not been knocked out, sltho he hasfought some of the best men in his class In the country.

Of course, Al's claims to the middlewsight title are ridiculous, but

he may not be the dub he has been credited with being.r it t: n n u

Oregon, however, has comaforth with a protest against theplaying of Shiel, Miller andHunt, on the spirit of the rulewhich haa been the bone ofcontention between the twounlvereltlea regarding the play-ing of Johnny Parsons."Oregon has objected to the play-

ing of Miller. Khlel and Hunt onthe same rule that they declareParsons eligible," said Younger,when he read Oregon's protest.

"Oregon la beginning to aee thatIt l» on the wrong aide of the ques-tion In upholding Parsons' eligibil-
