' i i 'J 1 REVIVAL IN ILLINOIS PLANNED BY RITCHIE Leonard Hicks Is Associated With Willie in Effort to Le galize Game in State. HOPPE SEEKS BOUT HERE Clements, of Seattle, and George Ross, of Vancouver, B. C, Will Arrive Today for Rose City Club Card Tomorrow Xight. NVlllie Ritchie, the clever boxer. Is still In Chicago. His prolonged stay is due to the fact that he and Leonard Hicks are prime movers in a plan to legalize boxing in Illinois. The game has been dead in that state ever since the Joe Gans-Terry McGovern fake. In a Ie.ter to this Western slope Willie says that he has taken on seven or eight additional pounds since be left: that he is still taking on solid flesh, and that he thinks In a few months he will be a full-fledged middle-weight. He will then go after the top-notchers In that class. Willie's friends, however, may well be skeptical about the solidity of the flesh he is putting on. Ritchie was 26 years old February 13. and at that age flesh an athlete puts on runs to fat. :If the gentlemanly California fistic marvel was destined to be a middle-weight he would have been one long ago. It may be that the Seal Rocks City battler Intends to make the Windy City his future borne. He intimated to John J. Higglns. Portland sportsman and life-long friend, when here last that he and Leonard Hicks, of Chicago, had their eyes on a hotel there. ... Freddie Bogan. who has succeeded Al Toung, of San Francisco, In handling Willie Hoppe, writes here to the ef fect that Hoppe 'would like to meet any of the local boys. ' Ralph Gruman would be the only suitable opponent for Willie here, as the Californlan Is a big welterweight. Frank Moran's brother, Joe, died in Cleveland the other day as a result of an operation. Stanley Clements, crack Seattle boxer who meets Frankle Huelat at the Rose City Athletic Club tomorrow night, and George Ross, the clever Vancouver, B. C, featherweight who tangles with Weldon Wing, will arrive In Portland this afternoon. . . Al Soramers, who meets Billy George, of Bend, ln,the main event, will finish his training this afternoon. He is in fine shape. -More than BO Bend sports men will arrive by special car in Port land early this morning. They will be headed by W. L. Doudlah, Bend pro moter, and will root for their Idol to morrow night. If Les Darcy can drop fighters "like he can drop managers he's a corker. MUFF BROXSOX IS HOME Boxer to Rest for Rose City Club Bout April 13. " Muff Bronson, Portland schoolboy boxing sensation, accompanied by his handler, Joa Flanigan. arrived back from San Francisco last night. Bron son lost two close decisions during his fortnight In the California city, one to Dick Kendall, the Butchertown terror, and the other to Phil Salvadore. of Sacramento. Salvadore got a verdict merely because the Parkslde Club has a ruling that a bout cannot be called a draw. Joe Flanigan. handler of the Port land boy. views the situation opti mistically. "Bronson contracted a cold on the boat going down and it never did really leave him," declares Flan igan. "The kid was shaded by Ken dall, a mighty toug(j, boy when in con dition to fight. The Salvadore affair ought to have been a draw, but under the rules of the club a decision, has to be rendered." Muff Bronson will appear against some finished performer at the Rose City Athletic Club April 13. He was originally scheduled to appear April 10, but wants to rest a few days before starting In to prepare. Jimmy Duffy did not come back with Bronson and Flanigan. He will remain in Oakland for two months. AGGIE XIXE DELAYED BY RAIN Outdoor Practice Prevented Because - of Inclement Weather. . OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL LEGE, Corvallis, Or., April 1. (Spe cial.)
