In anticipation of ills buttle with Langford, Kctcliel has canceled all ills future engagements and will give his hand, which he injured in his go with Frank Klaus in I'lttsburg recently, n chance to heal properly. Ketchel's battle with Klaus was a big disap pointment to his followers. He dis played none of thnt form which made TENNIS STAKS COMING. KETCIIEL TO MEET TOUGH NUT Sam Langtord Likely to Surprise Champion. BOUT SHOULD BE WARM ONE. J Both Men Hava Punches With Force of a Mule's Kick Behind Them In , Either Mitt and Are Game to the Core. A battle second only In Importance to the Jeffrles-Jobnson mill Is now In order. Stanley Ketchel, the middle weight champion, and Sam Lnngford, the bard hitting light heavyweight, have practically agreed to meet In San Francisco within the next month or so. The bout between them prom ises to be a grudge affair and Is a pugilistic plum for which the promot ers the country over have been bid ding for many moons. With tho men in good condition the battle should result in one of the best contests ever pulled off in this coun try, lloth men carry a knockout wal lop In either hand and are game to tho core. lnngford is a larger edi tion of Joe Waleott, the little negro who made things warm for tlio big heavyweights Bovcrol years ago, and for tho last two yeors has been the bogy man to the so,called champions BAM L4D0F0BD, WHO IS TO MEET KETCHEL. him famous. In fact, he fought like ( a second rater. After his poor show ing Ketchel gave as an excuse that he did not train properly. That's a time worn statement aud a poor one. The middleweight champion should have been in good shape for the go. With Ketchel in first class condition be could put Klaus away in six rounds or come pretty near It. anyway. The real trouble with Stanley Is that he has been training on sparkling wine since he was defeated by Johuson last October aud needs a good long siege of hard training. In Longford he will meet a man al most as good as Johnson. In his lust bout with Jim Flyuu, the Pueblo fire man, tlio negro showed what he could do when be tried. He toyed with Flynn for a few rounds, studying his style, and then planted n few telling blows on the hitter's chin. Then, step' plug buck and measuring his distance. ho scut over n crashing punch that sent his man Into dreamland. With condition guaranteed on both sides. It looks like one of the spectue ular encounters of ring history a great white middleweight champion pitted agiiinst an equally great hitting black man who bus been denied tho glories of a championship hecuusu of his nbll ity.

Word has been received that the Australian I.uwn Tennis association will scud on Invading tea in to Amer ica the coming summer In hope of cap turing the national championship and other titles. It is announced that this team will consist of the four greatest players In Australasia Norman E. Urookes of Victoria, Anthony F. Wild ing of New Zealand, A. Walter Dun lop of Victoria and Ir. Sharp of New South Wales. The team probably will sail for America the latter part of May and will be accompanied by a team of six golfers comprising the best golf talent la the island continent. I'.olh teams will make complete tours of tho U nt ted States uml will compete in all of the important tournaments. The visit of the Australasian play ers will mark the llrst appearance of players from the 1'iwllk' continent lu the United States. Chief Interest, of course, will ottaeh to the appearance of the great I'.iookes. who for the last three years has been regarded as the greatest exponent of lawn tenuis in the world.

The other two membeis of the Aus tralasian team. Duulop and Or. Sharp, are not so well known In this country, although Fred It. Alexander, holder with Ilaekett of the American dou bles championship, regards the former as the greatest doubles player he ever has seen.
