SAN FRANCISCO, April 17. Harlem
Tommy Murphy went the full 20 rounds
with Champion Willie Ritchie ct the
Eighth street arena, taking severe
punishment but showing great stick
ing powers. Several times the cham
pion had Murphy groggy, but the East
erner came back strong near the end,
taking the nineteenth round.
Ritchie won the decision of the
.Judges.
. Round 1 The fighters rushed quickly
to close quarters with Murphy the ag
gressor. He landed several light
punches to the face, and the champion
countered with telling right and left
chops to the jaw. After a siege or
wre:-tltng and clinching the champion
planted a powerful right to the
stomach. The Harlemite fought back
viciously and they went' to a heart
breaking clinch, Ritchie peppering his
opponent on the face with a series of
short-arm left and right smashes.
Ritchie's round.
Round 2 Murphy rushed in and they
fought to the ropes, Ritchie catching
his man with two right stomach drives.
He varied it with two lefts to the
body, stopping the Easterner's rush.
Ritchie displayed great generalship and
again met the on-coming Irishman with
powerful right and left wallops to the
jaw as they went to a clinch. Murphy
started a fierce rally as the men fought
to Xhe ropes, both administering severe
punishment. The champion, however,
landed the more telling punches and
had the advantage of the round.
Round 3 Ritchie met Murphy witb
a terrific left hook to the body, which
started- the Harlemite fighting like a
demon. After Murphy had swung a
hard right to the Jaw the Californian
planted his right hard on the jaw and
- they went in close, each landing on
body and face. The fighters battled
head to head, exchanging hard short
arm punches, and as the men separ
ated, Ritchie volleyed with rights and
lefts to the face, again taking a lead.
Round 4 Ritchie punched with
great accuracy and there was a world
of power behind his blows. Time and
again his right found his opponent's
body and quickly lefts followed to the
face, bringing the blood from Murphy's
nostrils. Ritchie kept up his. good
work, driving left and right to the
stomach with tremendous force.
Ritchie dazed his man with clean-cut
right hooks to the face and stomach
and Murphy tired rapidly. The gong
rang with the champion smiling and
landing almost at will, with Murphy
backing against the sheltering ropes. -Murphy
Sbowa Flash.
Round 5 "Take it easy, Willie
yelled the crowd. Immediately Mur
phy electrified the spectators by fight
ing the champion against the ropes,
and landed a fusillade of short-arm
blows. The local tighter promptly
drove a trio of rights to the body and
followed this with a half dozen lefts
to the face. Murphy fought doggedly,
but the round ended with the honors
in favor of the champion.
Round 6 Both came up full of light
and several rallies featured the early
round fighting'. As the belligerents
' were separated, Ritchie drove three
lefts to the body and a moment later
two solid rights to the jaw. This
slowed him up and Ritchie landed re
peatedly. Murphy, however, fought
back with consummate gameness, only
to receive a couple of staggering
facers. Ritchie by a wide margin.
Round 7 Murphy came up showing
the effect of the champion's terrific
body punishment. They closed in and
Ritchie inflicted great punishment on
the body and face. Murphy sought ref
uge in a clinch. Tommy suddenly
hooked his right to the Jaw, but Ritchie
grinned. Murphy grunted audibly when
:i left hook sank into his stomach, to
be followed by a hard left to the jaw.
Murphy landed several times in a
clinch and all but made the honors of
the round even.
Round 8 Murphy opened the round
with several light left and right half
arm swings to the face and a long
clinch followed. Murphy seemed to be
gaining st,rejvvt h.and .the champion
fought wittUefcWeliie care. He sought to
keep his man at a distance, but the
Irishman closed in, landing several
times on the body. Ritchie retaliated
with straight lefts and rights to the
face and the men clinched repeatedly.
Murphy had a shade and went to his
corner in & trot as the bell clanged.
Round a Ritchie backed his oponent
against the ropes, Murphy fighting
every inch of the way. Ritchie jabbed
several times with left to the eye and
then uppercut with his right to the
head, which all but closed Tommy's
left eye. Murphy landed a powerful left
to the sye and as they fought shoulder
to shoulder the champion landed on the
body and jaw with either hand. Ritchie
staggered his antagonist with a succes.

jaw that set the crowd yelling for the
' champion. Ritchie's round.
Round 10 Murphy rocked the cham
pion's head as tbey rushed to a clinch,
right and left, landing on the cham
pion's unprotected face. Ritchie evened
it by landing two solid lefts and a
powerful right on the body. The Cali
fornian, measuring his distance, Tained
blow after blow on the llarlemite's
face and body. Murphy fought back
with great ferocity and after the cham-
pion had plainly tired himself out, ral
lied and exchanged punch for punch.
Ritchie, however, enjoyed the honors,
his blows being by far the heavier and
cleaner.
Round 11 Ritchie opened Tommy's
left eye with a straight right and
scored with his famous right cross,
landing hard on the. solar plexus. Mur
phy fought back with great determina
tion and each staggered the other with
rights to the jaw. As the men closed
in Ritcnie- drove three pile-driving
rights to the body, adding to this a
uccesslon of left hooks to the face.
Time and again Murphy rushed in
grimly only to be met with straight
late and body punches that landed with
great force. The champion easily car
ried the honors of the round.
Crowd Jeer Ritchie.
Round 12 As usual. Willie met his
man with right stomach punches and
coolly stood back, seeking to land
vital punch. Ritchie evoked jeers
from the crowd by cuffing Murphy on
his bleeding ear as they clinched. Mur
phy sought to start a rally and Ritchie,
after landing two lefts to the bodv.

More Than 200 Athletes to Compete
in 30 Events Multnomah Club

Dash 2 P. M. Is Hour.
BY RALPH J. STAEHLL
Once again Columbia University col
lects the track and field stars of Ore
gon and part of Washington at Its
eleventh annual open meet in the Coli
seum this afternoon, but this Is one of
the few times that the "dopeaters" can
not figure out the names to put in
the blank places on the programme
before the meet takes place.
Four colleges, the University of Ore
gon, Oregon Agricultural uoiiege.
Whitman College and Willamette Uni
versity, and also the Multnomah Club,
will enter their stars in the open
events, while 20 high schools from Or
egon and Southwestern Washington
will take- part in the academic and
open events.
Several facts have combined ta make
this meet one of revelation. Accidents,
graduation and retirement on the part
of some of the Multnomah athletes
have made place for the younger strain
and that element will- be in its hey
day today.
Baker's Injury In Blow.
The latest bit of news adding to the
uncertainties is the fact that Johnny
Baker, Oregon Aggie sprinter, strained
a tendon in practice on Tuesday after
noon and has no hope of getting in
his running clothes. Baker was picked
as a winner for the 50-yard race
without any opposition. Had Baker
been in the race he would have had
to try conclusions with Cohn. the Mult
nomah Club 100-yard man. Cohn for
merly did . that distance for the Uni
versity of Michigan, and where there
was doubt expressed the race was said
to lie between Cohn and Baker.
In fact, Cohn was being watched just
as much as Baker. His college pedi
gree shows times that will make
trouble enough for any of them and
would have made Baker get on his
toes.
The opposition to Cohn is the un
known quantity today. Multnomah
figures that his entry is Just so many
points laid on the shelf. Another man
who is expected to bear watching is
Loucks, University of Oregon's new
quarter-miler.
LiOncks liifee Greyhound.
Loucks stands six feet four inches
and when In action has all the charac
teristics of a greyhound. While his
friend3 going around the track are
working their hardest, Loucks lakes
the lead and holds It with hardly ar-y
exertion.
A race may prove the "dope" all
wrong, bat his opposing men in that
distance are nevertheless discreetly
confining- themselves to the policy cf
"watchful waiting."
The Oregon Agricultural College,
which ran well ip In the programme of
last year, expects victory by being
able to land enough of the second and
third place events to help what win
ners it has in swinging the total.
Multnomah's loss of Martin Hawkins
and the sickness which has kept
George Philbrook to his bed does not
make the Winged M's chances the
rosiest. So the big battle probably will
be between the State University and
the college.
"Prep'' Schools Segregated.
The meet again will be in the na
ture of a big two-ring circus. The
second ring will have the high schools
and preparatory schools of Oregon and
Southwestern Washington.
Several ot the visitors sprung huge
surprises last year. Columbia Univer
sity's star carried the meet, with 28
points. Eugene was second, with S.
Some of the Portland schools failed to
make a. thing and had to nose in back
of Astoria, Vancouver, Salem and
others.
All these will again be present and
Portland's "prepers" are primed with
the Idea of keeping the scores at
home.
And the out-of-town athletes are
again in town with the idea of keep
ing Portland s team as far down the
column of points as possible.
The squads which they are bringing
would indicate that they have the de
termination. The entry list to the
eleventh annual meet has more than
200 names, 20 more than last year.
The meet starts at 2 o'clock. Co
lumbia University can be reached by
the St. Johns car, which will have spe
cial service for the day.
