Uky FRANCISCO. caL. Lec- I. rspa-
rial. Owen Moran demonstrated last
wark what manr of th fight rrltlra
bar been unwilling to admit. when tha
little Englishman kaorkrd oat Battling
Kelson In the eleventh round of their
bout at Mota arena. In spit of tha
"llif that Nelson la putting up.
. Moran won hla fight all. tha war and
bfr ha had finished with tha Durable
I'ane. airs proof also of hla punch.
The knockout ni a clean-rut affair.
A hard right to tha chin, tumbled Nel
oa over, ao that he fell on bla hark
with hla feet high In tha air. Four
limes more he waa knocked down be.
fora Referee ft II ir finally countad him
out.
Kelson now iajti ha waa not counted
out and that he .till had a rhanra. Anr
aurh assertion la nothing but a sub
terfuge to ear what little reputation
be has left.
"The flr.t time that I waa knocked
down.- said Nelson. "It waa a hard
punch and everything want bls-a ba
fora me. just aa blark as that hat.
Afterward. I waa recovering myself
and only stalling to last tha round out.
Moran waa tiring and tiring fast and
I think that I would he bad him In
tha next round. I waa listening to
t-slla and he didn't count me out.
Ererr newspaper man who waa at
the light, however. Is a witness to tha
rount. If anvthina- fella want over
tha rount than under It- ila was keep-
In; lime with tha official timekeeper,
and If my memory serves me right, ha
counted 13 before he called the Hauler
put.
As Sella; himself says, with anr other
fighter In the ring than Nelson, tha
bout would have been stopped. Aware,
nowever. of Nelson a wonderful re
cuperative powera In the past, he want
ed to give the lane every chance that
waa romtng to him. Tha talk that
Nelson might have won In the next
round la also foolish, lie could not
lave recovered In one minute and
Moran waa In good shape.
Moran' "Showing Fine.
aioran Is not to be robbed of any
rart of the credit for beating Nelson.
The Englishman, looking In aa good
hapa aa be baa been alnca be appeared
here, fought a cool, heady battle. Un
questionably the body punches weak
ened Nelson and tired him. Tbe Bat
tler waa but an excuse of his former
self. He did not have the punch or
tha -vitality and In addition lacked tha
ability to atand punishment. Take that
last asset away from Nelson and yon
ao not leave mm verr much.
In spite of the advice of all of hla
friends, backed up by the sporting
writers, iveieon wants to continue
tha ting. lie appears to feel that he Is
Just as good a drawing card aa ever.
"I want to flcht Wolgast.- Me said.
I can beat that stiff. 1 suppose If
Wolgast will not fight me that I will
have to take Moran on for a return
match. I don't know whether I will go
Into theatrical work. They will have
to give me Just aa much money as I
ever received. If I am to go on the
stage.
Tbat la a fair aample of the kind of
laia that kelson Is putting up. It
proves that ha doesn't reallxe the
changed conditional forgeta that he Is
a twice-defeated man. His friends have
urged him to retire, lie haa plenty of
money to keep him going and they have
aavisen mm that to enter the ring
again will only mean to face another
aereac.
xae Fattier will not listen to audi
talk. In fact. It makes him angry be
cause ne is so aiiviaed. Ha aavs bit-
lerly that he will ahow the wise ones
that be Is not a dead one and that he
ran come hack. a

MRS. WILLIAM BOHLAOCK ttIOI.U II til lu-iA!MC.NtWKH FORD
MONCI Portland'a most expert
omen motorl-ts Is Mrs. William
Bohlander. who handles her neat
little five-passenger Ford with a skill
nd grace that few of her sex excel.
Mra. Bohlander resides at the Hotel
Lenox., and every morning, rain or
shine, her little car leaves Third and
Main for a swift spin out Sixth, or
some other smoothly paved street.
This morning airing by motor haa
come to be a regular part of Mrs.
Bohlander's dally life.
While she haa been driving only a
few months, there la little Mrs. Boh
lander doea not know about running
or repairing her automobile. Since late
"Spring she haa covered more than
400 miles, and haa taken many long
trips into the country, such as the run
to Hood River, and touring tha n 11-
lamette Valley.
She has traversed many difficult
roads, and haa never yet had to call
for masculine help, alwaja coming out
of seemingly hopeless mudholes and
rain-washed gutter with flying col
ors.
Hut the ba roads she has encoun
tered have made of Mrs. Bohlander an
ardent supporter of K. Henry Werarae,
the good roads enthusiast.
"1 am with Mr. Wemme heart and
soul for good roads." said Mrs. Boh
lander. "Ore iron la such a beautiful
state, so Interesting In every direc
tion, that It Is a pity we haven't fine,
graded roads leading toward all points
of the compass. Even with our very
few even fair roads, motoring In tha
country is the most enjoyable thing I
know, and when wa do get tha good
roads. I am sure Oregon will be better
appreciated, even by people who hay
lived here all their lives."
ICcllrrmrnt His Saalor.
The public has a world of respect for
Nelson as a fighter, chiefly because he
baa alwaya been aggressive and always
on the square. That sentiment will die
away If the Dane Insists on lighting.
II ran t help but lose and win only
go the way of other men who bav In
sisted on boxing long after they should
have retired.
Owen Moran la anxious to get a
bout with Ad Wulgust. once upon a
time he bested Wolgast In six rounds
In the Cast and he thinks that he can
win tha lightweight championship.
Wolgast. however. doesn't appear
anxious to go Into action. He prefers
not to light until next Msy and wanta
X 13. t. an Impossible guarantee, for
lua end.
Charley Harvey has tak.-n Moran
Vast with htm and the Englishman will
show In New York and then take up
such other work as oftera. After that,
the chancra are that he will do a tour
if the English music halls. Personally.
Moran would much prefer fighting to
theatrical business, but Harvey want
to wait for Wolgast. If there la any
chance.
Jeff Perry, a lo.-al boy. who waa for
a. lung time sparring partner to Nelson
nd this time haa been In the Moran
vamp, will spar with Moran on the New
York stage and then pl.-k up whatever
lie can by getting matches In New
i'rl- Perry has the slam hang rush-In
a'jle of Nelson and he ought to make a
Antl-Mclit War Itrvlvcd.
T.e Nelson-Moran bout haa brought
reneaej agnation on the part of the
Church Federation to stop the game, but
so far nothing has reralird. It looks as.
If the a:u:Hn would succeed In Oakiund
and AUmeda bounty, aa the grand Jury
rroug.'it the-sU.)e,-t t the attention of
tha Mavor ar.d. Chief of Police. St and
ten-round bouts have been permitted in
Oakland and although It was at first an
nounced that there would be no more
boxing, the rani scheduled for lae Wed
nesday night took place with the ar
proval of the city authorises. The only
result baa been an ordinance cutting
dawn matchee In Oakland from ten to
sig rounder
la San Francisco. J. K. White, at
torney for the Federation, has been
writing letters to District Attorney
Ftckert. ralltr.g li at tent Inn to the
match. T.e I'lstrlot Attorney replied
in an open lotter to White In which.
lw suggested that White swear out rnm
. rlalnts against Nelson and Moran. that
the. boairg law of California might be
tested.
It I doubtful whether any mora will
are that the Church Federation will have
an anti-boxing law for submission at the
next session of the Legislature.
Blot Arranges Match.
Louis Blot w!U essay to give a Xe
round match Baturday afternoon. Decem
ber 17. If tha authorltlea and the weather
do not Interfere. Johnny Frayne and
One Round" Jack Hogan are the pair
of lightweights be haa matched and It
ill be a fair card, although nothing In
comparison to the two boys who met
laex. Saturday. Hogan la the chap who
bad a chance at Nelson first of all and
refused because he didn't want to fight
39 rounds.
Portland la to be congratulated upon
securing Nick Williams to handle the
Portland Northwestern League team.
Nick Is a remarkably steady chap and
ought to make good. A lack of ginger
has been rcaponsible In part for his
failure to do more of the catching on the
local tram, coupled to the fact that Claud
Berry la a rattling good backstop. How
ever. Williams has for tne past two
yeans, been the buMnes representative
of the team when on the road and Long
thinks be te decidedly capable. He haa
released WW lama to McCredle because
be want to give the blond-haired catcher
a chance to better himself.
Nick does not know what steps will
be tsken toward getting a club together
and snra that he will wait until Walter
MrOedle la here for the adjourned an
nual meeting of the league the second
Saturday In January.

The Women's Annex of the Portland
Social Turn Vereln held Its annual
drill and gymnastic exercises at the
gymnasium of the organisation,
Fourth and Tamhtll streets, last Mon
day night, and ,a large crowd wa on
hand to see the maneuvers.
I'nder tha direction of Professor
Richard Genserowskl, the women of
the various classes went through the
gymnastic exercises with precision and
skill that elicited the wonder of the
spectators. The exhibition drills -and
class work of the women caused all' to
admire the prowess of the fair sex In
their performances on the rings, borl
sontal bars and other gymnasium ap
paratus. One v( the features of the entertain
ment Which probably created the
greatest of Interest waa tha drilling ef
the women In the Gilbert system of
fancy dancing under the direction of
Professor Ucnsrrowski. The dances
were eo gracefully and precisely exe
cuted as to cause all present to marvel
at the time and attention required to
perfect suoh organlxed movement.
The systematic thoroughness of the
old German methods of physical cul
ture was well demonstrated by a
unique callsthenic drill, and other
march formations common to gymna
sium exercises. At the conclusion of
the athletic programme a social dance
was held which was enjoyed by the
young folks.

Former Champion Takes Him Under
Wing- After He Hag Made Good
i
Showing by Defending a
Seattle Policeman.
Ha Tommy Burns unearthed the
coming champion of the world? -That
1 the question which la now agitating
the fight fan of Puget Sound and the
adjacent cities across the British Co
lumbia line.
On the night that Jack Lester, whose
real name is Jubeck. who Is of Polish
extraction, beat Ed Hagen. the big Se
attle policeman. Burns took him In
charge and announced that he would
commence training htm for the cliam
plonshlp of the world. Burns Is en
thuslastic over his "find" and says he
will make a champion out ot th
youngster Or know the reason why.
Lester, like Stanley Ketchel, is of
Polish parentage and wks born In Wis
consln 1 years ago. Having youth and
strength in his favor It Is Just possible
that the tutorship of Burns may develop
the lad Into a real champion. Burn
1 known as one of the cleverest box
ers who ever stepped into the arena.
and be knows enough of the game to
prove a good tutor to the aspiring
youngster.
LcMcr of Good Build. -
Lester I five feet 10 inches tall
three Inches taller than Tommy Burns.
and weighs nearly ISO pounds. He- was
working In the coal mines near Seattle
when .he commenced using the boxing
gloves, and showed more or less ability
In that line and has figured In a num
ber of short-round affairs at Seattle,
Tacoma, Beillngham and other places.
However, his first real chance to
show his ability occurred about 10 days
ago when be was matched with Hagen
and so decisively defeated the Seattle
cop" that Burns took immediate notice
of the youngster's ability.
Always looking for the main chance
and anxious to get back at Jack John
son, Burns Immediately took Lester un
der hla wing and calmly announced
that he Intended to make a new cham
pion. Following is boost of Lester
hlch E. R. Hughes gives out:
"Tommy never had the natural
strength that tnls young Jubeck, or
Lester, has. In the first place, Lester
la three Inches taller than Tommy, and
he Is built from the ground up. Lester
Is 5 feet 10 Inches tall and weighs about
ISO pounds. As he Is only 19 years old.
he has not yet acquired his full growth.
ne promises to be quite a nrotn or
boy by the time he fill out. Lester
can take a horseshoe and with his hare
'hands twist It to pieces. He can put a
spike nail In his teeth and bend It dou
ble by tho strength of his Jaw. Lester
glories In his strength, and la always
willing to put It to the test, but Tommy
win get him away from that rough
tuff, for he la always reminding him
that that sort of taring does not get him
anything.
"Denver Ed Martin wants a crack at
-ester. Here Is a try-out of the real
nd for Lester. Martin Is a giant in
size, and he 1 also one of the cleverest
boxers who ever pulled on a glove. Jim
Corbet t say Martin outclasses Jack
Johnson as a boxer. Ed also carries a
stiff punch in that left hand. He would
make a monkey out of Lester In a spar
ring match, so It would be a real try
out for Lester to pit him against a man
as clever a Martin Just to see what he
would do to a man who kept a glove In
hi face all th time. If Lester could
beat down Martin's defense and get to
him In Jig time it would be a tremen
dous boost for h'm. for all ring follow
er know how clever Martin la, and
they would have to take notice of the
rugged young fellow who beat him
down."
Jaok Johnson ha been In the fight-
lng game for over 10 years, and like
11 the rest of them, he Is soon due to
wind up his career, and some of these
days he will follow th footsteps of 3ul-

Always At Your Service
A good motor car asks no favors of the weather.
The day has passed when owners of automobiles
pack their cars in moth balls with the first descent
of Jack Frost.
With the arrival of the bracing cold and snowy
days, ninety-two per cent of Chalmers owners, put
on windshields, tops, chains, caps, gloves, warm
coats and robes, and "go to it." It's great!
With top and side curtains, warm robes and a
"hot iron," any car is comfortable all winter long
for all members of the family. People don't "wait
till spring" any more to buy cars. An automobile
is a twelve-month proposition and as serviceable in
saving time in one season as another.
In fact, in winter, when street cars are so often
tied up, when they 'are always crowded and filled
with bad air, is when many city dwellers appreciate
their cars the most.
Who's afraid of a ride in the stinging winter air? Or
who's afraid of a little battle .with a snowstorm? Modern
men are not molly-coddles because they refuse to wear iron
clothes and carry a sword and insist on a bath every day.
A drive to business with the thermometer below freezing
is the part of an experience that makes you feel like whip
ping the stuffing out of your day's work and taking a fall '
out of your biggest problems.
The wisest buyers purchase cars in the fall and winter.
Then they are ready for use when the warm days come to
tantalize you into the country.
Besides, these buyers get a full year's use of their cars
before the car becomes a year old. Leaving our own
interests out of the question, we want to tell you frankly
that if you are going to buy a 1911 car at all, now is the
best time to place your order.
So far as Chalmers cars are concerned, they are built
on a quality, not a quantity basis. A good many people
who wanted Chalmers cars last year were disappointed,
because they waited too long to place their orders. We
are ready to show you the new models at your convenience.
Nona Better at the Price
Few Better at Any Price.
- Tbst is ths way we feel about the
Chalmers "30."
This is the car that woa the igio
Olidden Tour, the longest, .hardest
touring contest ever held.
This Is the car that hss never bsen
defeated in a road race or touring con
test by a car of its own price and
power dass.-
This is the car that has woa more
motoring events In proportion to tha
number entered than any other car In
the world.
This is the car that has made good
in the hands of thousands of owners.
This is the car whoss auality has
lifted it above the class wheVe its price
might seem to plsce It. This is tbe
csr thst sppeals as strongly to those
who wsnt the best csr regardless of
price as to those who want the best
csr for the least money.
There are many good cars 'made
nowadays snd any good car is s good
investment. Yet we believe Chalmers
cars offer the best value for the money.
Compare them with others. If you
can possibly afford a car, buy one, for
there Is no tetter Investment. We
hope it will be a Chalmers. But
whether it is or not, do not deprive
yourself and your fsmily sny longer
of the pleasure thst by right is yours
snd theirs. When you are making
the rounds, drop in snd see the
Chalmers cars. They talk for them
selves s great deal better than we cab
talk for them.

fries and enter the ring once too often.
Perhaps Tommy Burns' find may be the
younger man to put the champion out.
With the elimination of Battling Nel
son from ajl possible chance of "com-
ng back," the lightweight champion-
hip situation la not favored by pros
pects of a first-class mill in the near
future. Owen Moran eliminated Nel
son, and now wants to do likewise with
Champion Wolgast
Wolgast, the poorest excuse for a
champion the lightweight game has
ever known. however, successfully
stalled out of a return match with Bat
tling Nelson long enough to permit of
his elimination from the scene of ac
tivities, and is quite likely to perform
similarly toward Moran.
Since defeating Battling Nelson last
February Wolgast has not entered the
ring in a regular fight, and has suc
cessfully avoided signing up for
matches with any of the possible can
didates for the title he has held for
nearly a year. Wolgast probably fig
ures on retiring as the undefeated
lightweight champion of the world, but
lightweight champions are not entitled
to much consideration who fight but
One battle for the title during their
ring careers. Jack McAuliffe retired
as the undefeated lightweight cham
pion many years ago, but before retir
ing he fought all comers until he had
eliminated all of those entitled to con
sideration. For a champion Wolgast can invent
more excuses for not entering the ring
than any actress in accounting for her
failure to retire after her last "fare
well tour."
