Coffey, the Roscommon mastodon herder, will get the chance of his short and turbulent ring career when he matches punch and skill with Frank Moran, the blond Piltsburgher, in the historic sport ampitheatre, Madison Square Garden, next Tuesday evening.

Beyond a peradventure, the winner will be Jess Willard's first opponent upon the champion's return to the ring, whenever that may be. Coffey has been going through a unique process in preparing for this battle. He has combined Pullman tiaveling with knocking out third-rat? fighters so as to be properly conditioned for the most important bout his young life. It was no uncommon thing to read every other few days that James Coffey, of Ireland and the Bronx, had knocked out some unknown in a few rounds, in one state, and then some other equally unknown in another state. Sometimes it happened in Canada.

Billy Gibson certainly kept Big Jim busy knocking them down and out. This battle with Moran will virtually bo the turning point in Coffey's ring career. If he defeats Moran decisively, he will be in line for first crack at AViilard; it he is thrashed, he will have to go back to the pleasurable but unprofitable business of knocking out hand-selected dubs. Big- Frank Moran has taken this bout on chiefly to demonstrate his right to be the first to engage Willard in combat in defense of his newly acquired championship. Moran has had the experience of fighting the world's champion heavyweight.

This came to pass in July of 1914 when he went rounds with Jack Johnson, then the boss of the heavies. If Johnson is to be believed, Frank Moran will be the next heavyweight of vehicle known to that period, was in evidence, from the magnificent coach of the duke to the humble cart of the farmer. Hundreds of the rank and llle had walked long distances, some more than a hundred miles, to witness the encounter. The Irish brogue rose high in the chorus of conversation, for one of the combatants was a son of the Emerald Isle. Michael Eyan was the man upon whom the Irish pinned their faith to win the championship from Tom son, the Englishman.

The Litter's real name was Thomas Jackling right good man he was, for he had beaten all comers in fair fights and had redeemed the ring from the disrepute Into which It had fallen since Jack Broughton had vanished from the game. During that dubious period of pugilistic decline which extended from 1760 to 1785, two Irishmen, P'eter Corcoran and Duggan Fearns, had laid claim to the title, but both were believed to have been guilty ot" dishonest methods and their alleged supremacy aroused little enthusiasm even among their own countrymen.

Army and Georgetown Mix In Rough Scrap ono man in the universe that can dethrone "Willaid at the present time-and a man. according to the ex- champion, is Frank Moran. Johnson has fought both Willard and Moran, and he places Moran just a bit ahead of Willard as a boxer.

Johnson is of the opinion that Moran put up a better fight against him for twenty founds than did Willard in the first twenty rounds of the Havana a But Jack evidently overldoks the fact that Willard did not dare go at the speed of Moran those ilrst could afford to fight at top speed the entire distance, and therefore the twenty rounds -were indeed hard for Johnson. But back Jamesy is son's temple which stunned the Englishman. Ryan rushed in and aimed another blow at his staggering opponent, when Humphries, one of Johnson's second's caught Ryan by the arms and held him back. It was plain to all that if Ryan had been permitted to follow up his advantage that he would have gained a speedy victory, and that Humphries, by interfering-, was guilty of a foul. After ten or fifteen minutes of confusion, Ryan magnanimously agreed to disregard the foul and go on with the battle.

In the meantime Johnson had recovered his strength arid, grown wary, managed to elude all of Ryan's rushes until the Irishman had grown weary. Then Tom waded in and polished off his generous opponent. Johnson fully appreciated the fact that he was fairly defeated and that only Ryan's generosity saved him from losing "the title and at the conclusion of the tight he shook Ryan's hand warmly and vowed eternal friendship. And the vow was kept, for as long 33 they Ryan and Johnson were close comrades. After the light the two friends formed a partnership and went about core and game as they make 'em.

He the country giving sparring jxhibi- seemed the most likely man to i pute Tom Johnson's claims and the sports hailed the match with gladness, as marking a revival of the sport which had been dragged in the mire. The battle which attracted so much attention among sport loving Englishmen and Irishmen was the culmination of a quarrel, which had its beginning at Stepney Fields some months before. Johnson was acting as second to a. fighter named Savage, Michael Ryan acted in a similar ca-' pacity for Doyle, his opponent. The contest ended in a row, in which Johnson and Ryan passed violent words and applied to each other epithets far from flattering in their nature.

Except for the interference of friends. Johnson and Ryan would have fought then and there. They were prevailed upon to postpone the arbitrament of their grievances and a formal fight was arranged, with a purse of $1,500 and the championship of England for the winner, and nothing but disgrace for the vanquished. So it c-ime about that on chill twenty rounds, whereas Moran Johnson milled only twenty. December day Michael Ryan stood stripped to the waist and faced the man who had fought "his way to the top of the pugilistic ladder, while eager thousands wagered their last pennies on the result.

Ryan was a six and much bigger in every than Johnson, who was only five feat nine inches in height, but every inch of him an athlete, broad shouldered, deep chest- ed and muscular. Johnson was the recognized champion, the record of Michael Ryan was so good and his appearance so imposing, that the Irishman Was 'the favorite in the bet- to Coffey and Moran. confidently predicting a knockout victory, wnich is the identical thing Francois is doing. Both realize that a knockout victory will mean a fortune to the winner, as it will enhance the drawing powers of a meeting with Willard. Al Reich, the statuesque East Side heavyweight, is the greatest fighter of his weight-- jn a gymnasium.

Which means simply that Al Reich will not do as a contender for the title. And to think that we spoke so well of this Adonis! West Point, N. Oct.

In his recent fiasco with Gunboat Smith. Reich that he lacked a fighting heart, the main ingredient of a successful pugilist.

Reich cowered and retreated for ten rounds. The only reason he lasted the limit was that Smith was little better than his fainthearted opponent. Yes, even Gunboat Smith can no longer be considered as a likely foe of Jyss Willard. The (runner's twenty- round decision over Willard has been entirely forgotten as a result of his rapid deterioration.

Behold a Modest Manager. Jimmy da Johnston is still emitting loud blasts about his "greatest fighter of all time," Ted Lewis, the Englishman. Johnston doe-? not hesitate a moment in proclaiming Lewis "the ereatcst lightweight, welterweight and middleweight the world has ever seen." And it hasn't been so warm in New York lately. Why, little, loquacious Jimmy even thinks'that Lewis can defeat Young Weinert, who tips the beam at only 175 pounds. And Lewis scales 142 pounds when he is top heavy.

Nothing at all the matter with Jimmy, except that he has a telescope to his eye every time Lewis walks into Johnston's palatial quarters in the Knickerbocker building. Beware, Jess Willard!

They mado a mint of money and owing to their intimate friendship, had no desire to meet again in the ring. At last, however, when the sporting public began to accuse Ryaii of cowardice, he consented to another match. While the first Johnson-Ryan fight had resulted from a quarrel, the second was arranged in the most friendly manner. "Mike lad, what have I done to offend thee, that thou won't eight me?" asked Johnson. 'Divil a bit of offense, Tom," said the Irishman, "have I ever resaved Irom vez.

1 "Well, then, let's eight, for they do be calling you hard names." "Begorra, that I will, said Ryan: "to obleege a good fnfencl, it's meself that will foight yez." The second contest attracted an even larged crowd than the fiist. The Earl of Essex staged the on his Hart- fordshire estate, throwing the park open to the general public. Tom Johnson was a much more'sci- entific fighter than Ryan and during their sparring tour Tom had gained a thorough knowledge of tho Irishman's style of "fighting. Ryan had not been nearly so observant of Johnson, and as a result the latter had a decided advantage. The first round was as pretty an exhibition of skill and generalship as had ever been seen.

In the second session the impetuous Irishman decided to rush in and finish the affair and he succeeded, although not in the way he intended. Johnson dodged his blows and returned them so forcefully that Ryan measured his length on the turf. He came up still full of light, but Tom lashed him so unmercifully that at the end of thirty-three i utes Ryan's nose was broken, both eyes completely closed and he was. barely able to stand, so his seconds tossed up the sponge. Ryan harbored no resentment for his- defeat, but cheerlully admitted that he had been hiked by a better man and continued the firm friend of the victor.

Jim ought to know. He runs the league No hows. when, huts or if" about it. That's all there is to it so far as the present announcing is concerned. They're going to be here.

Jim Gilmorc says so. And Jim ought to know. It his league. Somebody is going to lose a Federal league club. 'Shake! you Kansas City, you St.

Louis, you Pittsburgh. Chicago, Buffalo Newark and Brooklyn. Some one of you is going to be orphaned. Nobody outside of Mattewan and Bellevue ever heard of a nine-club league. And no sane man is going to try a ten club league In these turbulent, warsome times.

So. some city is going to lose Its club. Nothing can be more certain. Baltimore? Impossible, because Baltimore lias onlj cue club now and it's a major league city, or so close to It that there isn much difference. Improbable, because Buffalo Is a good town and there's only minor league opposition there.

Chicago? Also improbable, because the hale? -won the pennant and are popular in certain quarters of the gale swept metropolis. Pittsburgh? Likewise Improbable, oeoause Pits- burgh Is a major league city and quite nble to support two clubs--and will it they're making decent showings. Brooklyn?
