to Appear in Portland.
BT JAMES H. CASSELL.
Battling- Nelson, veteran of more
than 100 ring- engagements, sprinkled
over 17 years. Is going; to retire. The
ex-llghtweight champion and conqueror
of the famous Joe Gans announced In
Philadelphia the other day that his
bout at Pittsburg on May 14 will be
his last. At the same time he con
firmed this In a letter to Jack King,
his father-in-law.
"I am satisfied that I am about
through." writes the most persistent
bit of fighting machinery the ring has
ever known. "I promised the public I
would make this announcement wnen
I had satisfied myself that I could not
come back. I am satisfied.
Mr. and Mrs. Nelson will be In Port
land within the next two or three
weeks. Nelson will celebrate his 31st
fclrthday in Portland on June 5, and In
cidentally look about for suitable realty
investments. Pa-in-law King hopes to
nee the Nelsons settle in Portland, and
Bat sro Into some business here.
One Job Jack has staked out for Bat
Is that -of fight manager, jacn m
implicit confidence In the ability of
Ijirrv Madden, the big policeman, to
make good: but the old-time trainer
does not care to neglect nis juriun
bath business to pilot Madden about
the country: So he will parade the
big chap before Nelson and then advise
Son Bat to take the copper xo v-aii
fornla for entry In the "white hope'
sweeDstakes.
Incidentally King is becoming more
ambitious for his big charge daily. He
has trained Madden down to 181 pounds,
and is going to try to reduce six more
and enter the policeman In tne i fa-
pound, or llght-heavywelght class, as
well as the heavyweight, at the Seattle
chamDtonshlps of May 16 and 17. If
Madden can make 173 pounds. Earl
MLrbus: of Multnomah Club, will be
fc.rr-ed to meet htm again.
Easterners persist in declaring Lu
ther McCarty out of the running for
the heavyweight championship. The
New York critics take great delight in
hammering "Lute" for his failure to
stow away Frank Moran in the recent
10-round affair, and several of them
have come out flat-footed with the
declaration that McCarty won't do. and
have turned to Jess Vtllard and "Gun
bout- Smith as the real hopes of white
fightdom.
The absence of a convincing punch,
particularly when compared with the
annihilating performances of Smith,
and his disinclination to exchange
nnnrhea with Willard or Smith, are re
sponsible for the temporary eclipse of
ileCartv.-- One or two signal victories
other than the one he should register
.over Pelker at Calgary on May 24
and McCarty will, be the "limelight
laddie" once more. But In the mean
time Willard and Smith hold the cen
ter of the arena.
Smith and Willard raee,t at San Fran
cisco on May 20. the night Bud Ander
son tackles Mandot at Vernon. This
affair should test to the last degree the
merits of both men.
McCarty may be superior to Willard,
and the writer Is Inclined to this belief.
but the question must await another
meeting. Others disagree, but one
mnm thin is certain: The victor will be
rightfully entitled to the championship
if McCarty persists in nis campaign oi
procrastination.
Alongside of Willard. Smith will look
like a lllliputian. He will be out
weighed about BO pounds, and out
reached manv inches. But he carries
that which the fight public goes wild
over a knockout punch. Experts may
argue by the hour that the clever box
er is the popular idol, but let a rough
and tumble "knockerout" come along
and the public promptly squashes the
argument.
It takea a mighty clever man to keep
away from a fighting machine like
Smith. No one has ever asserted that
Wll'.ard rivals Jim Corbett In science.
Hence the height, reach and avoirdu
pois of the gigantic Kansan may prove
unavailing against Smith's "occipital"
or "hospital punch," delivered at the
Joining of the neck and the back of the
skull. It Is one of Fltzslmmons fa
vorites, and you must confess that he
could lay them low.
Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion,
will be In Portland, at the Empress
Theater, the week of May 26. It
will be . Willie's last vaudeville ap
pearance before training for a July
4 fight, so it is possible that Portland
fans will have the privilege of last
(Taxing on Vaudeville Willie while he
holds the world's title. It's not Im
probable that he will pass the crown
on to Joe Rivers or some other light
weight on Independence day.
Before Ritchie shows here In three
round bouts against all comers. Jimmy
Brltt. a prominent lightweight of the
early Nelson period, will display his
monologue wares at the Empress.
Jimmy has been In Portland before, but
aa a fighter.

A REPORT from Australia saya that
Bill Lang and Bill Squires, ex
heavyweight stars, are to re-enter the
ring soon.
Biddy Bishop, the Tacoma boxing ex
pert who refereed the recent 15-round
bout between Ray Campbell, of Se
attle, and Dick Hyland, believes that
Campbell has a splendid opportunity
to achieve fame in the ring. Campbell
beat Hyland in IS rounds, and while
he didn't score a knockout, and Hyland
Is far from aa good aa when he fought
Nelson, McFaxland and Cross, yet he

to much consideration.
Leach Cross has a peculiar record.
He beats H the second raters, although
Dick Hyland beat htm in San Francisco
and Jem Driscoll walloped him good In
10 rounds, and manages to beat a fairly
good one now and then. Mandot for
example. Yet he has always been
easy for men like McFarland, Brltton
and Mat Wells.
Johnny Dundee Is a much-sought-after
fighter. He has been offered
scraps with Charley White at New Or

Milwaukee, a fight In New York, and
then there is the Wolgast proposition
for Los Angeles. He Is keen to meet Kil

Willard-Smith Battle May 20.
Winner Is Likely to Meet Mc
Carty on Fourth of July.
BY HARRY B. SMITH.
SAN FRANCISCO. May 10. (Special.)
The- boxing game is safe In California
for at least another two years. These
have been parlous times in the last
three weeks, and the result was so
much in doubt that it looked extreme
ly gloomy for the proponents of the
sport up at Sacramento.
Finally, however, there has Been a
final ruling on the part of the Solons
and the lawmakers will take no other
action.
While there has been no sentiment
on the part of the people desiring to
have the game stopped. It Is undeniably
the case that there has been a certain
amount of such feeling In the reform
Legislature that is about to close its
sessions, and only the hardest kind of
work by Coffroth and his associates
stalled them off.
When the Legislature first convened,
two anti-fight bills were Introduced,
one In the Assembly by Brown, of San
Mateo, and the other by Senator Brown,
or "Golden Rule" Brown, as he has
come to be nicknamed.
Assembly Bill Stricter.
Both of these bills were to prohibit
boxing entirely, save for four-round
matches in purely amateur clubs, and
they differed only in the penalty. The
Assembly bill was the more strict, de
claring that prizefighting would be a
felony and that all the parties con
nected In any way could be so con
victed. ,., ,
Senator Brown's measure likewise
was to prohibit the game, but the pen
alty was less severe.
The fight hinged on the Senate meas-.
ure. Several- weeks ago, after it was
thought the situation was safe. Senator
Brown had his bill reported unani
mously out of committee.
The boxing people commenced to line
up their forces and attempted to stall
off . action. Brown, however. Insisted
upon a vote, and one night last week
he had It. He lacked Just one vote of
the 21 necessary to pass his measure,
and then gave notice of a motion to
reconsider.
When It came to the reconsideration
vote, he whipped some of the outsiders
Into line and secured what he wanted.
a rain the situation looked bad. but the
boxing forces rallied, and. largely to
gain time, amendments were Intro
duced. Senator Julllard Introduced an
amendment to restrict boxing to 20
rounds, which restriction Is not In
force under the present bill.
Amendment Regarded aa Absurd.
Senator Brown introduced an amend
ment to limit the number of rounds to
eight, to cut off the one-minute rest
between rounds and to permit pro
moters to charge no more than 25 cents.
It was an absurd amendment, of course.
but goes to show how little the Senator
understands tne sport he was attempt
ing to regulate.
On Monday night of this week the
Julllard amendment came up, and se
cured passage by a vote of 20 to 17.
Now Senator Brown says that he Is
through. His bill has ben so thor
oughly emasculated that he has no
further Interest In It.
In the meantime the Assembly bill
on this subject failed of passage, and
even failed when reconsideration had
been secured.
Friends of the sport admit that there
Is a tendency toward reform, and the
chances are that two years hence they
will have some bill of their own draw
ing before the Legislature, beating the
crank who wants to stop it altogether.
, . Smith and Willard Training.
Gunboat Smith and Jess Willard. the
heavyweights, who meet in Coffroth's
open air arena on May 20, arrived in
San Francisco the forepart of the week
and are quartered at their respective
camps.
Gunner Smith was accompanied on
the trip across the continent by his
manager. Jim Buckley, while Jess Wil
lard made the trip down from Harbin
Springs with Tom Jones. The Gunner
is at Shannon's resort. In San Rafael,
while Jess Willard Is at the beach.
There will be quite a disparity in
weights. Willard stripped at 244 pounds
the first day of his training, while
Gunboat Smith can't possibly scale 180
pounds. Willard may come down a
trifle, but he Is going to have an ad
vantage something like 50 pounds. That
Is a big advantage, although when Bob
Fltzslmmons was in his prime he could
give away that much weight and more
and still win handily enough.
Smith has the experience on his side
of the scale, and will depend upon that
to win for him when the pair of them
stand ready to mix In the ring. Jones
thinks that the weight will prove the
undoing of Smith, but Buckley onlyj

$27.50 Suits .
The Toggery 384 Washington
laughs, and declares that the bigger
they are the harder they fall.
Willard hasn't had much bf a ring
record and he will need it. We have
all seen big boxers In the ring before
who couldn't accomplish anything, and
this may be a horse of the same color.
He strikes me as being the 6ort of
chap who is slow to think and to move.
That was one great trouble with Al
Kaufman, and the real reason that he
was never closer to the title.
I rather imagine that Jones appre
ciates this may be the difficulty with
Willard, for he has surrounded the
cowboy with a large staff of scrappers,
some of them clever and some burly,
so that he can have an insight into all
sorts of boxing.
No matter who wins, the victor win
be going after Luther McCarty, as he
seems to have some sort of hold on
the heavyweight title. Buckley says
that he has for a long time been try
ing to coax McCarty Into the same
ring with smith, and that iutner is
afraid.
Providing one or the other shows
suitable class, Jimmy Coffroth Is likely
to go after a heavyweight card for the
Fourth of July. It would make a good
attraction, as we haven't had a heavy
weight bill of any proportions for long.

TJNIVERSITT OF OREGON, Eugene,
May 10. (Special.) Taking 38 Vi points,
more than double the number secured
by any other school, the preparatory
athletes of Columbia University today
walked away with the annual state in
terscholastic track and field meet held
by the University of Oregon.
Washington High School of Portland
was second with 16 points, and Eugene
High School third with 14 points. The
other schools which broke into the
score sheet. In their order, were Hill
Military Academy, 12 points; Astoria
High School, 8; Jefferson High School,
1a: St. John High School, 6; Athera
High School, 5; Salem High School. 4;
North Bend High School, 4; Union High
School, 4; Corvallis High School, 3. The
remaining 29 preparatory schools which
were represented in the meet did not
draw in the distribution of the points.
Hill Man Stars.
Conditions for todays meet were
even more unfavorable than for the
Oregon-Washington duel of the pre
ceding day. The mud on the track was
so deep spikes were almost useless, and
men on'ho would have threatened rec
ords on a good track floundered about
hopelessly.
The only creditable time was that of
Grant, Hill Military Academy, in th
century, which was run on a compara
tively dry course laid out on the foot
ball field. Grant was caught in 10 1-5,
and with the form he was showing he
would have easily knocked off the frac
tion and done the flat on a fast track
Grant defeated Goreczky of Columbia
cleverly in both sprints.
Payne of Athena, won the mile by a
city block. Three days ago, running
with McClure and Hugglns of Oregon,
he was timed by Hay ward In 4:28
within a second of the world's inter-
scholastic record. Nelson plowed
through the half mile and won without
a mishap, but in the quarter, which he
was figured to win, he fell in the fight
for the pole at the first turn.
Moses Capsizes in HurdJee.
This was not the only upset of the
day, for in the 220-yard hurdles Moses
of Corvallis was pressing Kirkland, the
winner, when he capsized over the last
hurdle. Kirkland, of Columbia, was

AGGIES CONGRATULATE SELVES
Decision Not to Make Berkeley Trip
Best, Think Athletes.
OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
Corvallis, May 10. (Special.) Since the
results of yesterday's Oregon-Washington
track meet have reached" the campus
of Oregon Agricultural College, "Dad"
Moulton's Aggie athletes are congratu
lating Captain "Rube" Williams, Johnny
Baker, Lafky and Reynolds on their de
cision not to make the trip to Berkeley
to participate in the Coast champion
ship meet.
Had the boys made the California
trip, as It originally appeared they might
do, they could not have reached Cor
vallis on the return before Tuesday,
and in view of the fact that the O. A. C.
Washington meet comes the following
day, the risk of being out of form for
