BT JAMES II. CASS ELL.
Packer McFarland is still "Peerless
Packey. the boxing master," the great
est boxer In the ring, lie must be, for
when ten critics witness the stockyards
lad in action against Juck Britton. and
nine of them concede the raira to Mc
Farland. there is not muA room for
argument
In glancing over an even dozen re
ports of the great 10-round mill of
March 7. all appearing- in New York or
Brooklyn papers, nine of them accord
Packey the victory, seven of them by
a big margin and two of them a bit
grudgingly, while only one, the Globe,
rives the decision to Britton, and that
solely on aggressiveness.
Of course, opinions differ as to the
details. One writer says that It was
nothing but a boxing lesson, with Brit
ton the DUDil. and that Packey had
nine rounds and only failed to get the
10th because he was feeling out his
roan. The majority give McFarland
aeven rounds, with the other three fair
ly even or Britton entitled to one or
two. The New York Sun says that Mc
Farland has passed the zenith of his
career, and that his downfall Is only a
matter of months unless he retires.
However, all agree that as a light
weight McFarland may make no more
claims to recognition. He weighed 140
pounds when he stepped Into the ring,
and carried few ounces of excess flesh.
He was seven pounds over the light
weight limit, 44 pounds heavier than
Britton and only two pounds under the
welterweight mark.
Of course, there is the talk of a
return bout, with a 20-round mill in
California. But It is extremely doubt
ful if they ever meet over a longer
course than that of a week ago Friday.
Brltton's alibi Is that the route was
too short that he could have won In
0 rounds. This Is to be expected, but
a decision In Jack's favor is not to be
If evtr they meet.
People think of McFarland as an old
man and Britton as a youngster, when
as a matter of fact Britton is nearly
three years older than McFarland. He
was born in 1S85, while Packey first
saw the light of day in 18S8. Packey
has been before the public longer and
In more important roles, but Britton
Is Hearing his 2Sth year.
However, since Britton weighed only
1353 pounds at the ringside, those who
have howled for months that Dan Mor
gan's protege Is not a legitimate light
weight uium be silent for a time. There
is no need for Britton to enter the
welterweight division, as must McFar
land eventually If he remains In tha
ring. Jack may with perfect propriety
challenge any lightweight in the world,
. -
The victory of Bob McAllister over
Vwlian In his professional debut not
only brands tbe Olympic Club man as
a possible successor to Jim Corbett
but boosts the stock of Earl Miebus,
the Multnomah Club light heavyweight.
AUebus lost a decision to McAllister at
Los Angeles when the latter was still
a "slmon pure," but the margin was far
from as aide as that of the go last
Wednesday night against the "pro."
Californtans may be expected to go
Into ei-stacles over McAllister, for the
Mg fellow looks like a comer, but
there Is really no occasion for the out
burst fol 'owing a victory over such a
"ham-and" scrapper of the Meehan
type. He was made to order for the
clever McAllister, and until "Gentle
roan Jims" Bob meets a worthier foe
It might be well to delay the crowning
vf the ex-Winged O phenom.
Frank Klaus, of Pittsburg, looks like
the logical middleweight boxing cham
pion. His victory over Billy Papke In
France was expected, as would a vic
tory over any other middleweight in a
20-round fight. Eddie McGoorty looms
up as the strongest competitor for the
title, but they say that Eddie cannot
atand the gaff.

DOG ENTRIES GOME
Reputation of Judge Said to
Encourage Exhibitors.
VANCOUVER TO BE STRONG
Canadian Club Joins American As
sociation to Participate Folly In
Coast Shows and Bo Accord
ed Proper Credit.
The advantage of an internationally-
known Judge for the forthcoming dog
show to be held here April 2-5 in the
Bungalow Theater Is said to be amply
exemplified. San Francisco fanciers
have written promising 35 dogs for the
show, mostly terriers, and the Vancou
ver, B. C, people will how en masse.
In both these cases numerous men
say they are showing simply because
Ihomas. the noted Judge, is to have
charge of the selection of ribbon win
ners. In addition to being an all
around judge, he is essentially a terrier
man. not merely an Airedale expert, but
arbiter of all varieties of terriers.
He was -for a long- time the buyer for
the Sabine kennels, the most famous lot
of fox terriers In America today. His
contract was to travel fcurope every
year, selecting new blood and new
strains for the millionaire owner.
Thomas Crocker Buyer.
Then. too. he used to buy for Mise
Jennie Crocker, who was recently mar
ried, thougn, in this case, he confined
his activities to .oston and to whit-
Scotch terriers, while he bought and
brought to this country the first cham
pion Airedale.
No less than 28 entries have been re
ceived from Butte, Mont, and over 100
ltogether to date. Among those from
Montana is Champion Kootenay Chinook,
owned by George Downer. This is the
Airedale dog that won the ribbon for
second best dog in the New York show
last year, and he Is sure to go far here.
J. A. Kobb. a Canadian government
employe, of Victoria, who specializes
in setters and pointers, will be show
ing extensively, while he is also bring
ing down several other dogs belonging
to various fanciers in the British Co
lumbia city.
The Increase from San Francisco will
be about 50 per cent, while from Vic
toria. B. C. there will be large entries,
according to Mrs. Isobel Cleighton. who
won here last year, and wrote to Sec
retary McCarthy yesterday. She had 12
dogs on the benches last year, chiefly
of the cocker spaniel breed.
VsaeoSTfr to Slow Heavily.
It is from Vancouver, however, that
the greatest increase is expected and
fon a peculiar reason. There has been
GROUP OF BOWLERS
JHESE-YT I ITT
split-up In dogdom there recently,
'he Vancouver Kennel Club Is now at
.iiated with the American Kennel Club,
eing the only Canadian club to do so.
The reason for this is that dogs gain
ing prizes in Canadian shows have no
footing in American shows. Conse
quently as all the shows on this Coast
of any note outside Vancouver anu
Victoria are In America, dog-lovers up
there figured that it was better to be
under American Kennel Club rules.
This is not meeting with full favor
up there, and the Victoria people are
against such a measure, but neverthe
less will support the Portland show on
account of the ability of the judge, who
is going to prove a great drawing card,
if all appearances are correct.

(SDecial.) Aien. women and children
look a half holiday this afternoon and
watched at one of the several placet
in the city for returns from the Anderson-Brown
light at Vernon, Cal. Sev
eral thousand persons did little or no
work after noon; and stood In tne
street waiting eagerly for Anderson,
pride of Vancouver and the Pacific
Northwest, to best "Knockout" Brown,
and they were sorely . disappointed
a hen the flash came that the bout had
gone the full 20 rounds and ended in
a draii'.
Mrs. Charles Anderson, Bud's mother,
said: "Of course I was a llttie dis
appointed that Buddy did not win, but
I am sure that he will do better next
time. He has not had as much ring
experience as that fellow Brown, so I
am sure my boy Is going to win
sooner or later."
When the last dispatch was read
that the end was a draw, the crowd
did not cheer, as it had done wildly
and vehemently earlier in the go, when
Anderson fas reported as having
decided advantage over his opponent.
There was little betting done here, as
everyone was in favor of Anderson
but a purse of several thousand dollars
was made up and sent to Portland ano
Vernon to be wagered-
There seems to be a general impres
sion that while Anderson did not win.

Just been received by Chairman E. M.
Vail, of the Interscholastic Track Meet

team from Honolulu will represent tho
Island at the meet April 4. in the spe

Duke P. Kahanamoku, the Island

company the boys as their trainer and,
will give an exhibition at the meet.
The entry of these swimmers will
make this year's Interscholastic meet

California Is hoping that the Wash

able to make tiie trip. Washington
men have sent inquiries here regarding
the matter, but whether they will ap
pear or not depends upon the action
of the Portland School Board, which
