siv FRivriSCO Cal.. July 10.
(Special.) A Jinx seems to have set
tled over the boxing game In San
Francisco and will positively not move
away. Kddie Graney, who has the
July permit, and had succeeded In
matching biff Al Kaufman and Charlie
Miller, the latest of the San Francisco
Willie Il'tO, u ..... .".-. v. .....
week that he had absolutely no match.
Kaufman, it was learned, was ill
with pleurisy and threatened with
pneumonia. The match had to be
..ii. e ,, i-....
' ,"' . ...
in a serious conuitiuu, out even wmii
the quickest recovery ne coman i ex-
pect to fight on July 31. Graney took
this with as good grace as possible
and decided that he would sign Soldier
Elder with Miller. The soldier, how
ever, was cut in a stabbing affray
and so put on the invalid list. Charlie
Horn, the pride of the Mission and a
coming heavyweight, was next looked
up. Charlie said that he was perfectly
willing to box. but discovered the day
after his promise that he had broken
the small bones in his hand.
And that lets Graney out so far a:
a heavyweight card is concerned. He
may possibly stage two mlddleweights.
but at this writing he admits that he
doesn't know what he can do.
Over in Oakland about the same state
of affairs exists. The Fruitvale Ath
letic Club wanted to stage a ten-round
show. One-Round Hogan was offered
a match with Frankie Burns and made
the promoters gasp when he demanded
32500 for his end.
Then Giover Hayes was looked up
and he accepted an offer to box ten
rounds with Burns. The latter was
all right until he learned of Kaufman's
Illness. Then Frankie thought there
was a chance for rim to box in fca-i
Francisco over a 20-round route, which
he prefers. So he turned down the
Oaklanders and later discovered that
Graney didn't want his services.
Murpby to Fight Attell.
Cof froth is to stase a show on Sat-
urday afternoon between Tommy Mur-
phv. of New York, and Abe Attell, and
so far as known that match is still
secure. It is the same bout that was
slated for Colma on the Fourth of
July and had to he called off beeauwe
the authorities objected to rakers ap
pearing.
Later Murphy and Manager Jim
Buckley hurried to New York, but
Coffroth received a dispatch the first
of the week tt the effect that Murphy
was prepared to start for San Fran
cisco.
Attell Is back from his barnstorming
trip In the Northwest. He will loaf
arourd San Francisco for a few days
and then be reudy to commence his
training at Jo Millett's establishment
down in the Colma district.
Just now Coffroth is away on an au
tomobile trip to the Tahoe country and
Into Nevada. He says tnat it is
business trip pure and simple, but the
chances are that he win comDine with
it a whole lot of pleasure and sight
seeing.
IMcturea Show Vp Welsb.
Pictures of the Wolgast-Rtvers fight
have been on display here this week
and they certainly show up Jack
Welsh, the referee, in such a light that
he ought to be satisfied to quit the
sport as the third man In the ring.
The pictures do not prove or dis-
prove whether the blow that Wolgast
struck was low or fair. Neither does it
appear that Rivers, hit Wolgast at the
same time. Rather it looks as if Wol.
East collansed from weakness and fell
over the man he had hit.
One thing is certain. Jack welsh not
onlv Dulled Wolcast oft the fallen
Rivers, but he extended his hand to
the champion even after Ad was stand-
ing on his feet. It is the most plain I
case of favoritism being shown to
tisrhter that I have witnessed for some
time. Little wonder that Wolgast has
always insisted upon Jack Welsh as
his referee, for it looks as if he would
always pet the better of the breaks.
Any fighter in the future who has a
chance at wolgast would be absurd
to actree to Welsh as a referee. The
latter has not made any public state
ment, but I question very much
whether he would accept such & post
acain, considering the criticism to
which he has been subjected at the
hands of the press.
Unquestionably Welsh will have no
more chances of that sort in Los Ange-
les and his future as a referee does not
look very bright right here in Sar
rranciscu. mi ..uiuo ,
Wolgast En Route to Oregon. 1
According to dispatches from the
south. Woleast and Jones will leave
on Monday for a trip into the wilds of
Orecon. where they can have some
l.untlnsr. After that thev intend en- I
ins to Cauiilac, Mich., and then return I
to Los Angeles. Their plans, natural-
ly. depend on what is done as regards
return match with Rivers in Lo An.
celes and it Is hard to say now what
will come of all the arguments.
If Wolirast does't fiKht Rivers. Tom
McCarey is talking of matching the
Southerner with Willie Ritchie, Joe
Mandct or Knockout Brown for Labor
day. the winner to take on Wolgast.
Ritchie, as a matter of fact. Is entitled
to the bout and quite anxious for It.
Knockout Brown is a back number
and Ritchie whipped Mandot so de
cisively in their ten-round affair in
New Orleans that he looks by far the
best cf the present crop of 133-pound
boys.
It is common gossip that Ritchie is
looking for a capable manager. Billy
Nolan would like to handle the San
Francisco boy, but his terms are said
to be a trifle hisrher than Ritchie wants
to pay. which is the obstacle standing
.between them now. Eventually they
rnay come to terms. Certainly Ritchie
will secure a capable manager and No
lan a good fichtcr. so the combination
v:?rht to make some money, especially
ff Willie can land the lightweight title.
Attell May Get Return Boot.
If Attell can get away with the Mur-I
phy bout in good shape he is promised
return match with Kllbane. the new
featherweight champion In Los Ange
les. McCarey has been corresponding
with Kllbane. who has practically prom
ised that he will be ready to flht for
the rhampiorship nn some day in Sep
tember. Incidentally they would have
a tine time picking a referee. Charlie
Kyton. who refereed before, is not
pleasing to Attell because of that de-
clsion and the Los Angeles fans and
Promoter McCarey will not stand for
Welsh. Ifs a pretty mess.

"The present market is no compari

be . Portland this week.
Wolgast. reeking with the aonars
which fell into his receptive hands at
the end of that 13-round Vernon at
fair, will invade Oregon the latter part
of the week, according to letters re
ceived by Jack King, for the purpose of
purchasing a tract of land lor s. came
ranee. uDon which he expects to settle
when he retn ss from tne ring.
The aDnendicltis-alf licted athlete salt
ed down a portion of his recent earn
ings in the Southern California real
estate, planning to hold the property
until the completion of the Panama
Canal and then cut it up Into building
lota. With the residue he expects to
purchase a tract of land comprising
about 1000 acres in Oregon, naving
his eyes on a square in the Tillamook
country.
When here a couple of montns ago,
woleast told several friends that he was
uch enamored oi tne uregon
and would become a citizen of the
state when his ring days are ended.
H investigated a number of tracts of
land with an eye to becoming a cattle
kin it. and has had representatives in
specting various properties ever since
his Pantages appearance.
A 10-day hunting trip into Central
Orec-on is one of the treats JacK iing,
the Portland sporting man, is plannnlg
for Wolgast. As Ad has a broKen nana
and Is not In the best of condition
otherwise, he ' probably will "loaf"
about Portland for a week or two, then
take the hunting trip, and follow this
with an Inspection and purchase of
land.
The chamDion will be accompanied
by his wife. Tom Jones, his manager,
probably win not mane tne trip.
Portland has at least one boxing en
thusiast who has confidence enough in
the prowess of Bud Anderson, the Van
couver lightweight, to predict that he
will one day wear the championship
crown. That Individual is Jack King.
So sure is King that Anderson pos
sesses championship caliber, that he
plans to finance a trip to California
this Fall, backing Anderson for a sub
stantial sum in order to secure a bout
with a top-notcher.
Anderson will be in Portland within
a week, and after a long rest will re
sume boxing, preparatory to his first in
vasion of the California fight field.
-Anderson has youth, strength,
punching ability, and is rapidly ac
quiring the experience necessary to
make him a champion," declares King.
"In addition he is a legitimate light
weight, and does not have to weaken
himself to make 133 pounds ring
side." "Next Fall he should be at the top
of his fighting strength, while experi
ence will make him a more finished
boxer, still every gruelling fight takes
away a portion of his strength, and he
should be able to cope with the best
man in the game this Fall. By putting
up a side bet, I hope to escape the
string of preliminary bouts which usu
ally pave the way for a title mill, but
at the same time sap the strength and
vltaility of the winner."

EYTON'S DECISION JEERED

LOS ANGEL.ES. July 20. After forc
ing whatever fighting there was for
nearly nine rounds of a scbeJu.ec i-
round bout today, ' Owen Moran, of
England, ta; disqualified for using his
elbow in -clinches ar-d the decision
awarded by Referee Charles Eyton to
Jack White, of Chicago. The abrupt
endina- of the fight was received with
mingled cheers and groans, most of
the latter for Moran and some for the
referee.
There were no features. Moran did
nearly all of the leading and fully half
of the time was spent in feinting and
racing with Moran the pursuer. White
had the better of only one round, the
seventh, when he landed three left
swings to Moran's head.
Moran was first warned in the fifth
round when a short left hook opened
White's lip. The Chicagoan protested
that Moran had used his -elbow in
striking the blow. Twice again in sub
sequent rounds Moran was warned and
each time he protested that he was
not using his elbows,
Amone- ringside spectators there was
almost as much dltference or opinion
as at the Wolgast-Rivers decision,
many asserting that because of White's
method of defense in clinches, Moran
only seemed to be fighting unfairly.
Moran showed much more cleverness
than White, whose showing was dis
appointing. Moran was a 10 to 1 vi
favorite at the ringside with compara
tively little White money in sight.
Moran has fought his last fight lor
me, said Promoter Tom jvicuarey, 01
the Vernon Athletic Club. "No man
who deliberately fouls another can
fight in the Vernon arena. Referee
Eyton did the only thing he could do.
He repeatedly warned Moran not to
foul White and when Moran showed
no Inclination to respect tnese warn
ings, gave the decision to White.

With few errors of Judgment on both
sides, the contestants played par golf
uring the entire day. The feature hole
f the 36-hole match was the 53d.
Wood drove out of bounds on the tee
off, but made a particularly fine drive
to the further edge of the green, which
is situated on badly broken ground on
the top of a knoll. Evans reached the
green on his second. Wood, having al
ready lost a stroke, then made a spec
tacular attempt to hole his ball on 1
35-foot put, his ball resting two inches
from the edge of the cup. The applause
that greeted his effort was cut short
when Evans made the most spectacular
play of the tournament by putting 30
feet and holding his ball on a carom
off Wood's ball. A ringing cheer greet
ed his effort.

BIO ROADS ARE COSTLY
FARMER rXABLE TO HAUL CROP
IX TIME LOSES $620.
Professor Ayers, at Corvallia, Tells
of Economy and Durability in
Sand-Clay Mixture.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE, Corvallis, July 20. (Special)
Professor Ernest F- Ayers, head of th
department of highway engineering at
Oregon Agricultural College, in a spe
cial lecture before the Summer school
Thursday, described the process of
building sand-clay roads which have
proved so successful In other parts
the country, and which he said would
prove a boon to Oregon.
1 ne sand-clay road Is east Iv con
structed, will stand heavy traffic and
costs not more than $723 a mile aver
age, while the average cost of macadam
roads is $4989 a mile. There are in
the United States at the present time
24,601 miles of sand-clay roads giving
satisfactory service and built at a total
cost that would have been sufficient
to construct but about 400 miles of
macadam.
'To the farmer good roads frequent
ly mean the difference between afflu
ence and bankruptcy." said Professor
Ayers. "A Wisconsin farmer, who
held 1000 bushels of potatoes in stor
age, waiting for a good price, was of
fered 32 cents in March. But they
had to be delivered in town and the
roads wore so bad that he could not
haul them. When he finally got his
potatoes to market they brought him
just 30 cents a bushel. Impassable
roads cost him $620, and now he is an
ardent booster for any movement as
suring relief.
"While the farmer receives as great
financial gain from good roads as any
one, he has the added social benefits.
Poor roads prevent the children from
attending school regularly, keep the
family home from church, and even
the physician is unable to reach his
patient in time to be of the most help.
With better roads all these conditions
are changed, the mail can be deliv
ered regularly, and graded schools and
larger churches always come with good
roads.
The sand-clay road must first be
graded and carefully drained and
should be crowned about an Inch to
the foot. A road can be improved
greatly by the addition of sand even
if no grading be done, but the expense
of such improvement is much greater.
Sharp, coarse sand gives the best re
sults, but it need not be as clean as
is required for concrete. The sand is
spread over the wet clay road to
depth of from 4 to 6 Inches and traffic
will mix the materials. This plan Is
followed In cases where funds are not
available for working the materials to.
gether with plow and harrow. The
construction Is a gradual process and
the surface will not be at its best for
five or six months. The occassional
use of a drag to preserve the crown
and fill ruts is necessary. Dust and
mud are controlled by using the proper
proportion of sand and clay and the
addition of a little more sand each
year is all that is required in the way
of maintenance.

Made Only With Seven-Passenger
Touring Bodies.
Four new models will come from th
Pierce-Arrow factory at Buffalo. N. T,
this season. Coincident with this an
nouncement the Pierce-Arrow Com
pany gives out the information that lt
will no longer designate its cars by
year numbers, but hereafter letters
will be used denoting the series of the
various models. With the series let
ter will be the number showing the
horsepower of the car.
The four new cars are known as the
66-A. the 48-B. the 3S-C and the 48-D.
All of the models will be of the six
cylinder type, the Pierce-Arrow Com
pany having manufactured no four
cylinder cars, if trucks may be ex
cepted, since the Spring of 1909. The
new models mark the seventh year of
tne company s manufacture of six-
cylinder cars.
Of the two 48 horsepower models
the 4S-D Is the first on which deliv
eries have been made. These cars be
gan coming from the factory July 1.
They are made only with seven-passenger
touring bodies, but Inclosed
bodies to fit the chassis will be sup
plied In time for Fall and Winter use.
Latest Improvement Included.
The motors of the four cars are:
6B-A. 5 by 7 Inches; 48-B and 4S-r.

are used.
A distinctive feature of the Pierce-
Arrow cars is the centralization of
control. All levers, pedals, switches,
