THE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, PORTLAND. DECEMBER 9, 1906. 17 SMITH GETS MATCH "Mysterious Billy" Will Fight Ten Rounds With Thomas. .. OFF FOR BLUE MOUNTAINS Old-Time Pugilist Will Put in Six Months in Preparation Fight to Take Place at Colma in January. Bt WU.T, G. MAC RAE. With Al Nellt recently fighting a bat tle that recalled his palmy days and with our own Mysterious Billy Smith hiking to the Blue Mountains for a six-weeks training trip, it would seem a9 if the fight season of 1907 would see a lot of the once famous scrappers in the ring once more. When Thomas not only failed to stop Nelll, but had all he could do to keep Al from putting it over him. fight fans who sat around the ring that night at Colma, had to pinch themselves to see If they were dreaming. Thomas had agreed to knock out Neill and McCon nell in one night. Thomas poked Me Connell out In the first round, but when he landed on Neill he touched a live wire. Al Nelll, like Billy Smith, by a host of padded mitt gladiators had been rele gated to the Pass Over Club, and wasn't even considered a good second-rater. But Al . came back and the battle that he made against Thomas has made the San Francisco light fans talk ever since. Billy Roche thought so well of the fight that Al made that he offered to put him on again against Thomas for 10 rounds, for most of the critics seem to be of the opinion that Nelll could not stick it out against the- youngster for any longer distance. With the' rejuvination of Neill, comes fight talk from Mysterious Billy Smith. Portland's Mystrlous one has been a whirlwind in his time. His last ring en gagement was with his old opponent, Joe Walcott, at the Exposition, but the least said about that fight the better, for Smith's showing was not any too good. Walcott long ago lost his fear for the Mysterious white man and the foxy negro soon found out that Smith's punches had lOBt their sting, so there wasn't much to the fight but the fact that Wal cott won. Billy worked hard getting ready for his fight, with Wolcott, but . in spite of his long hours on the road, he entered the ring with rolls, of fat showing over Ms belt. He contended at the time that he was not in condition and that the time had been to short in whlch'to get ready. Several times since then Smith has declared there was still one more good fight in him and has said that all he wanted was a chance. This chance has come. Billy Roche, when he heard that Smith was in earnest about securing a match, wrote the Port land boniface and said that if Smith wanted the January date with Thomas at Colma he could have it. The letter came yesterday and Smith will leave to- gon. Jimmy Kelly, who trained Smith at one time, and a good clever boxer named Kenney, will accompany Smith into the mountains, Smith declares that if the San Francisco fight fans were surprised at the showing Al Neill made they will surely be surprised when he takes Thomas into camp. "I am going to take six weeks in the mountains," he said last night. "This thing of trying to train in town is all right for the youngsters, but when they eet as old as I am. thev must ntnv awav from friends. I don't think I have gone as far back as some people think I have. Any way. this tight will bo the test, for I'll take plenty of time to get ready for the tight. This fellow Thomas is a rough, rugged- youngster, but at that I think I can stop him." PICKS A MAN TO JiEET Bit ITT , , Brother Willie Says Fitzgerald Will . Do If He Does JVot ljose Monday. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. $. (Special.) Manager and Promoter Willie Britt is still undecided as to the man he will match with his brother Jimmy for the December date, but he got so far this vuifiK aa iu name xne prospective op ponent. Willie Fitzgerald is the man Britt has inf mind and if the fight which Fitzgerald has on hand in the East Mon day evening results in his favor he will start immediately for the Coast. If Fitz gerald makes a poor showing, Manager Britt will be back where he started from. "I will match Willie Fitzgerald and Jimmy at . 133 pounds, weigh in at $ o'clock." said Willie. "Britt . can make 133 ringside, but he will only make that weight for Nelson or Gans. Fitzgerald is the ,best man In sight for this month's fight and he will come here as soon as he can. I wanted Jimmy to call oft his ngnt tor .Monday night, byt Fitzgerald would not do so. , "As regards the challenge issued by Tommy Burns for Memsic. I will take no notice of it at the present time. Memsic has only one good victory on his calen dar and that is the one over Neary, and Neary was not so much. Memsic has fought in preliminaries to Britt's fights and he should do something more than he has so far accomplished before he asks for a fight with Britt. Maybe in a month or two we will go to Los Angeles and give Memsic a chance. Because Tommy Burns thinks him a wonder, that does not make him so by any means." Jimmy is training at San Rafael and Joe3 his regular exercise every day. He is in fine shape and will need but little preparation for the bout this month. Jimmy says that he never felt better in his life and that he will show the public this month that he has not gone back. WHEELER IS I'OK KUGBY. Says Improved American Game Is Not Satisfactory. SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 8. (Special.) All hopes which the students of the State University might previously have enter tained in regard the replacing of the American game of football in the univer sity at the opening .of the season next Fall has been struck a hard, blow at the hands of President Benjamin Ide Wheeler. In the course of the address at the university meeting this morning President Wheeler said: "The old collegiate game has been im proved -Somewhat by the changes that have been made In the rules this year. My talks with Walter Camp and other authorities have proved that these men are not satisfied themselves with the game now. They are for further" revisions. Many of the colleges in the East are talking of introducing Rugby next year and it still looks to me as though Rugby were the better game." Ieo Teats Chosen Captain. UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON. Seattle. Dec. 8. (Special.) Leo Teats was today unanimously elected base ball captain for the season of 1907. Teats la a native of Tacoma. and comes of a family of baseball players well l-.nown in this section of the country. He played In the infield last year for the varsity,, but this season will prob ably play behind the bat. Washington will be stronger in baseball this year than in any other branch of athletics Most of last year's men are back, but it is thought that most of them will lose their places, as there is much first class new material in college this year. Trainer Conibear is a specialist, on baseball, and will begin training just as early as the season permits. WALTHOXTR WINS THE FIRST Curtain-Raiser for Six-Day Bicycle - Race In New -York.
