By “YOUNG CORBETT.” World's Feather- Weight Champion, Ss”: FRANCISCO, Cal., Jan. 22.—The pugilistic pot is boiling over out in this speedy, dizzy little town. So I had a talk with Jim Coffroth last night over the dainty bits of fisticuffs that are being cooked up. Jim, by the way, is the Napoleon of club managers out this way. He handles the rudder of the Yosemite Athletic Club. “Say, James,” I said to him, “throw the calcium on your plans for > 3 yy BZ | this year.

Jimmy sighed. Then he said: “I'm going to make a great effort to find a suitable opponent for Jeffries.
