in Fine- Trim.
BY DICK SHARP.
Sam Langford and "Tiny" Herman
have one thing in common. They
both stopped Andre Anderson in. two
rounds. Sam turned the trick In
1917 while Herman administered the
sleeping potion to Andre last . Friday
niuht in Vancouver. B. C.
If one were to deliberate on the
boxers Landlord has put away in
his career of 18 years of boxinff it
would fill several columns. The Bos
ton colored battler began knocking
them out at 14 yeans of age, when he
sturtcd his ring career, and is still
putting them away with his bone
crushins right and left hooks. The
record book gives .out the fact that
I-angford is lit years old. which
would hardly make him an old man
and looking over the boxers that he
fought during 1!10 one would still
he more further Inclined to regard
I-aneford as one of the best heavy
weights now before the public.
Bmrn of ote Met.
Last year Earn took on among
boxers of note. Willie Meehan. Harry
Wills, three times: Jack Thompson,
three times; Bill Tate and others. He
has fought Fred Fulton twice, losing
ence in seven rounds and then boxing
big Fred to a draw In a. return match.
Very few white boxers have cared
to risk a drubbing at his hands. Ful
ton, Bob Levere, "Gunboat" Smith,
Andre Anderson, Tom McMahon,
Porky" Flynn. Colin Bell, Jim Klynn
and Willie Meehan are about the
only well known ones who would
take him on once he began to be
rated as a star. Flynn, Bell, Smith,
Anderson. Devere and McMahon were
all knocked out as a result of their
willingness to meet the Boston tar
ba by.
Jack Johnson tasted defeat at
r.angford's hands and never tared
In mix with Sam when he rose to the
-plnnale of the heavyweight heap.
Without a doubt Langford is one
of the hesviest sockers of all tinle.
Sam's main forte is body blows, but
the chin docs not go unheeded.
Allle Taylor, young Bend bantam
weight, who meets Johnny Coy in on
of the six-round special events of to
morrow's card at the Heilig, is a
rugged little mixer and may prove a
sensation. Taylor doesn't seem to
know what the word fear means and
racks a wicked punch. Coy Is a
clever youngster and shifty on his
feet. He made an excellent Impres
sion in his match with Abe Cordon
here several months ago and figures
to make Taylor show, everything that
he has.
The remainder of the card: Youns
Sam Langford versus Weldon Wing,
eight rounds: Baby Bluo versus
Frankie Howard and George Eagles
versus Frankie Crltes.
Tiny Herman. Astoria heavyweight,
arrived yesterday all primed for his
ten-round go with Langford. Ore
gon's contribution to the white hope
crop pulled in from Vancouver, B. C.
where he toppled over Andre Ander
son. Herman looks to be in the best
of condition and several battles which
he has engaged in around the Puget
Sound district during the past few
weeks have put him in top notch
form for his go with the colored
heavyweight.

LOCAL FIGHTERS GET DECI
SIONS IX ABERDEEN DOITS.
AVrirht of Seattle Loses to Former
Denver Boy Wlien Bout
Kmls at Speed.
ABERDEEN, Wash., Oct. 4. CSpe
cial.) Frankie Murphy, Portland wel
ter, won a decision over Billy Wright
of Seattle in the six-round main event
or tonight's ristic card presented by
Harry Druxman. matchmaker for the
Aberdeen Athletic club. The two wel
ters started off at a slow pace, but
along about' the fifth round opened
up with some real stuff and made up
for their early hesitation.
Murphy was the aggressor nn to the
last round, w hen Wright began a little
rignt crossing and slowed the former
Denver battler up. Frankie rallied in
the last few seconds of the battle and
rocked Wright with a barrage of
swings. The Seattle mixer claimed a
foul In the fifth round, but his claim
was not recognized and Murphy kept
plugging away, coming within an ace
of stowing the former coast champion
away. If Murphy had not led in the
first five rounds there would have
been no fight. The Portlander kept on
rne go every minute trying to get
Wright to step out and take a chance,
but Billy couldn't see it that way.
A Hie Taylor, Portland bantam, won
a Bix-round decision over Eddie Moore
of Seattle in one of the greatest fights
ever witnessed here. The bout was a
hamnier-and-tonsrs affair from start
to finish, with Taylor uncorking a line
of punches that fans here seldom see.
The boxing followers .cheered the two
little battlers from round to round,
giving them a tremendous ovation at
the cud of each. Moore was the clev
erer, but couldn't stand the gaff.
Jack Mirenta, Tacoma welterweight,
knocked out Soldier Morton of Aber
deen in the third round of a scheduled
four-round scrap. It was Mirenta's
first fight and he made good. Horton
went down three times and the third
time stayed for the count.
Don Mclntyre of Aberdeen won a
technical knockout over Billy Pringle
of Aberdeen in the curtain raiser.
Referee Joe Waterman stopped the
out in the second round to save
Pringle from punishment.

meet last year at Eugene; Guy Koepp,
a member of last year's frosh track
team; Napoleon ("Speed") Palatier
of the same aggregation and several
other new men. One trouble with the
university track team has always
been that the men are not In proper
condition in the spring. It is planned
this year to have all track men out at
least three times a week so that they
will be In shape when the regular
training starts. During the good
weather the men will work in the

Eleven Make Splendid Back

UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA.
Berkeley, Oct. 4. Coach Andy Smith
and his corps of assistants at the
university are making big strides in
rounding the men into football ma
chinery. r California is .fortunate In having a
good supply of - arslty material from
last year, and this, coupled with sev
eral stars from last year's freshman
team, makes a splendid background
for the coaches to build ti.'.s year's
team around. Cort Majors, this year's
captain, is showing 'all bis old-time
ability.
There is a plentiful supply of ma
terial for center. George Latham,
last year's center. Is out for his old
job. though Smith may decide to use
him as one of the guards. Other men
aspiring for center are Bill Gallagher
and "Fat Clark." both of whom were
on the freshman squad lat season.
