THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY, .TUNE 29, 1913. n, RITCHIE FAVORITE AT ODDS OF 10 TO 8 Fast Reduction of Champion's Weight Bothers Fans, but . Is Scouted by Trainer. REFEREE CHOICE PLEASES KJvers Kxpected to Be t Disadvan tage From Heavy Left of Op ponent, Who, While Not Ag- . gresslve, Has Rough Tricks. SAN FRANCISCO. June 28. (Spe cial.) The all-absorbing topic In San Francisco sporting circles these days Is the lightweight championship battle that win take place. Friday next, be tween Willio Ritchie, the title-holder, and Joe RlveTS, the Los Angeles chal lenger. A week ago we were all stirred up because of the split between Ritchie and his erstwhile manager, Billy No lan. That sensation passed by quickly enough and we are now passing through that period that is., tech nically known to the fighters as the grind of training. Ritchie Is working with Harry Foley !n charge of the training camp at Billy Shannon's resort in Marin County. Foley is an old-time fighter who appeared in Portland on several occasions and what he -doesn't know about conditioning fighters isn't worth knowing. . " The champion, in the first few days, took off weight at an alarming rate. He started around the. 140-pound mark and by Tuesday he was weighing as little as 136 Vi pounds. With only 134 pounds to make a couple of hours be fore the match, it has been argued that Ritchie is either worrying or get ting down far too rapidly. Foley Mnk.cn Defense. . The criticisms must flave reached home, for Foley has produced figures to show that Ritchie is not as big a boy as he has been credited with being. Foley says that Ritchie is no larger, generally speaking, than Joe Qans, and that the public shouldn't be both ered. The champion has been moving right alone, working consistently, but- at the same time not tryinar to pile 'on too much. The last week is to be given over to sharpening his. wind and Im proving his judgment of distance, after which he will be prepared to make the best showinsr thst is possible. . Joe Rivers is boxing before big crowds at the Seal Rock House at the San Francisco beach. Rivers is naturally a brilliant gym nasium performer, of the spectacular style, and as he has hoys against him who are far from being in his class, naturally he has made a good impres sion on the fans, a majority of whom have never seen the Mexican before. Rivers is rather inclined to shortness, but he is big above the waist and par ticularly has a pair of shoulders that loom up as large as a house. He is aggressive, which ' is another quality that the local fans appreciate, and has much the same style as Wolgast. al though he is hardly as vicious as the former champion. Weight FlKUrrs 'Withheld. The Southerner, unlike Ritchie. Is not giving out particulars as to his weight and naturally there has been more or less speculation as to Just where he tips the scales. The other day he looked to be well over 138 pounds, although Manager Joe Levy declared that he was not more than 137 pounds. Levy has an objection for some reason to naming the weight day by day. He is so small, however, that the weight certainly cannot be bothersome for him. Both boys are careful and hard workers and so far as condition is con cerned there Isn't any reason why the pair of them shouldn't be In tiptop shape. Betting odds at this writing show the Mexican is the under dog, Ritchie being a 10 to 8 favorite, and, since there is Ritchie money in the pool boxes to be wagered, the chances are that as good as 10 to 7 and perhaps better will be laid by the supporters of the champion. v The question of the naming of the refree, which promised to be a dis puted point, was settled In a quarter of an hour when Ritchie and Joe Levy got together. They had a private confer ence for that length of time, broke awfty smilingly and announced that F.ddie Graney was their unanimous choice. Uraney Choice Pleases. Graney declared that he wasn't sure he wanted to accept the additional re sponsibility, but Inasmuch as he is the one picked, there isn't a chance in the world for anyone else. General olyn is that they couldn't name a better man for the Job, as he is capable, knows all of the fine points and will be cool under fire. He will carry with him the confidence of the crowd and that will count for a good deal in packing the boys in for the contest. So far as a winner Is concerned, one is lnolined to string- with the cham pion in this fight, although it Is con ceded that Rivers is a good boy and will put up a hard fight. First of all, Ritchie is the champion and a newly made one at that. It is quite true that he won his honors on a foul, but whoever heard of a cham pion losing his first out? Then too the public will find him lm the confidence that comes from victory His work on the stage will doubtless have improved his form and it is worthy of note that he practically pioked Rivers as the boy he preferred 10 meet. Rivers looks to be built to suit itucnie. e is snort and does not find it easy to evade a good left. Ritchie has that good left and also a strong right cross which he unquestionably nupes 10 use. ne is a cool fighter, even though not particularly aggress-- ive ana ne can use as many rough incus as ine next man in the game. . KJvers' Points Noted. Now as to the challenger. Rivers is a good piece of fighting machinery, aggressive to the limit and full of fight an me time. te is strong on in-flght us ana nara to sr.or,p. At the same time it is questionable if he likes oun ishment when it is handed to him and it is questionable also whether he can hit as hard a blow as Wolgast could wnen he was risrht. ' The general opinion In San Francisco is that Ritchie made a good move when he canceled his engagement to have Nolan act as his manatrer. The fighter declares that It was because of finances; that Nolan hadn't been able to demonstrate his worth. There may be something In that, but the chances are that Ritchie found Nolan as dls agreeable to get along with as did Battling Nelson and Abe AttelL In order to get rid of Nolan, who had no contract. Ritchie paid him 3000 in addition to the 25 per cent that he had been receiving. MOTGRBQAT CONSTRUCTION MAKES STRIDES NUMEROUS IMPROVED FEATURES BEING SHOWN Wolff Will Make Every Effort to Keep Pacific Coast Championship With Oregon Wolff I and Agresa to Post $1000 on Outcome of Race With Vamoose, Which Beat Oregon Wolff II Engines Are,Replaced in Wolf f I for Forthcoming Speed Trial at Astoria Regatta. , : S-fj-,'fsswv4w -'t' 7 -: " WV-? -"vZ , - ' , , r'T., ill &&2ss&gg$g ,- u..,;, i : 1 2V? -"Jri -i--v-r' BY RALPH, J. 8TAEHL1. BUT seven years ago, when a little gasoline boat chugged up the W ill- over 20 miles an hour, the bridges i spanning the river were black with people and everybody gasped "say, but they certainly are getting speed into those boats." This vear if the boats at the annual Astoria Regatta do not make better than 35 miles an hour, the cor ners of the mouths of those in the grandstand will take a downward turn. So rapid has been the advancement in the construction of the hulls and the adaptation of the high power engines to the boats. The initial races back about 1906 exemplified the skill of Portland's pio neers in the boat builder's art. They presented a humble beginning but they paved the way for the Oregon Wolff the holder of the world's record for a few months in 1912. This craft churned around a six mile course five times at a 42.4 mile clip. John Wolff's Flirt was the first which could be termed a speeder. At that it was able to make but 22 miles, but It copped the money. Construction Much Changed. The construction has undergone great change. The boats then were all one shape, either fan-tailed or had tor pedo . sterns. Both styles have since become obsolete as speedboat types. The Flirt was really nothing but a pleasure boat of the runabout type. Its com petitors were about the same and were powered accordingly. Then followed the construction of the Hattie, a boat which was not much dif ferent, and in speed was not much of an improvement over the other boats on the river. About 1907 came the first real speed ers, boats of the type then being de veloped all over the country, with speed as the sole object. Power development began to figure with the new designs. The first of these boats was the Wolff, a S2-foot boat. It cleaned up the river a gainst the Potato Bug I and the Happy- Heine. , . The Wolff was able to make about 2 miles at best. It was the first boat which gave Wolff the idea of planing rather than cutting the water and his later designs showed this idea. The Happy Heine was a small boat designed and built by Otto Ran ft, who built the Vamoose, the only boat which has ever beaten a Wolff creation. Happy an Ideal Craft. The Happy was powered with a 60- horse engine and was an ideal craft in its way. It was not a match for the Wolf and concentrated its efforts- on the Potato Bugs, the boats turned out by C. F. Vurtis. the well-known. "Port land boat designer. The Potato Bug I was the winner In several match races which the llttli speeders had. A year later the Po tato Bug II came along- and still kept the Happy Heine in the rear until one day at Rainier the Happy beat the Cur tis boat on its home grounds. Both the Happy and the Potato Bug II made several more runs in the next year, but they were not appreciated much, as the newer boats were getting Deyona tneir range. The Red Arrow, owned by Tom Flynn, oi wiisonviue. made somewhat of a. splash then, winning several Impromp tu races. It was one of the contenders with the Wolf, but never worsted the Portland boat. Vamoose Beats Wolf II. Beginning with the Wolf II. the Port land builder has never been headed. He holds the of ficial Pacific Coast cham pionships although - two boats with which he hag experimented have proven unsatisfactory and were beaten, both by the Vamoose, owned by Captain Mil ton Smith, of Rainier. This boat beat the Oregon Wolf I " at the Everett, Wash., races, but fans generally attrlb ute this defeat to the poor condition of Wolff's boat owing to an accident. This year's product from the Wolf shed was the Oregon Wolf No. 2, which was beaten twice by the Vamoose. Wolff has not given the craft up, but owing to the nearness of the Astoria regatta he has decided to take no chances with the Pacific Coast Cham pionship and to defend it with the old reliable, the Oregon Wolf I. Wolff has aarreed to nost tiono on the outcome of the free-for-all at As toria so, with the purse of J1000 put up by the Regatta management, the race ought to be one of the greatest ever seen at the annual waterfest. The Oresron Wolf I has not had her first trial since the engine has been placed back in the hull, but followers of the game are confident that the old boat will present a beautiful race in its attempt to keep the. Vamoose from the flag. The Admiral has announced th fol lowing posts of duty for the resratta days: Admiral W. L. Morgan. Board of retired iHmlrali n tr raiin der. Charles V. Brown.

SEASIDE, Or.. June 28. (Special.) Motorboat enthusiasts are much inter ested here, in the movement that has Just been started by the Seaside Im provement Club toward the securing of a motorboat channel from the waters of the Necanicum River at Seaside to the waters of the Columbia Rivei". - It is said by those who are familiar with the country between here and As. toria ' that the .project -can be accom plished at small cost. Maps are- being prepared, showing the topography of the country that would be traversed . and the extent of the existing waterways. Several Fort- land motorboat owners who are in Sea side have been interviewed on the sub. Ject and they expressed themselves as highly pleased with the movement and ar willing to give liberally toward the : 'frf-rnrflfr,nVifli1,r-rBr -"V-'f r ffifh ifV J support of the project. Xo official ac tion has been taken by the Seaside club as yet, as the members desire to select a committee that will be sufficiently in terested in it to follow it through to a successful culmination. Portland motorboat owners would be enabled to come all the way to Seaside by water and many believe that event ually it will be possible to cruise to the waters of the Pacific in small boats that would not dare to venture to the mouth of the Columbia.

MOST BOUTS NO-DECISION In About lO-O Battles Xew Yorker Has Proved His Stamina, Suc cumbing Only to Fighting Dick Hj-land After Hard Match. With the Bud .Anderson-Leach Cross lightweight elimination bout only five days distant, interest of Northwestern fans is centered in the Vancouver lad's opponent. Cross. Cros3 real name Is Louis C. Wallach. ana ne is a dentist in New York fitv Also Cross has been one of the busiest boxers in the business the pa3t four or live years.- He has met nearly all the lop-notcners within that period, and while practically all the bouts have been fought under the New York no- dectslon rules. Cross has proved in all nis matches that he is a tough bird Only once has Cross fought a lone battle, and he lost that in 41 rounds to Dick Hyland, after traveling all the way across tho continent to California This makes his second jaunt to the Golden state, and July 4 will tell the story of the success or failure of his quest. V hile Cross is recognized as one of the foremost lightweights of the pe riod Wolgast showed his regard by dodging him at every turn Northwest ern fight fans believe that Anderson's terrific wallop will win for the West. Cross is not noted as a heavy slugger. He has put the quietus to such men as One Round Hogan, Battling Hurley and Joe Mandot, but he is not the bruising style of mauler that Anderson is, although more clever. Tho only fighter of note the two have operated against is Joe Mandot. Last March Cross forced the French man's seconds to toss a towel into the ring at New Orleans In the 10th round to save a. knockout. Anderson beat Mandot in a trifle over that limit, and beat him even more decisively for the first 10 rounds than did Cross, say the Southern experts. - Cross' fighting record up to this year follows: 1906 Knockouts: Bob Waters, 2 rounds; Jack.

CREWS WILL CONTEND COMPETITORS IX IDAHO REGAT TA START TOMORROW. Heavy Junior Quartet of Portland Rowing Club Will Accompany Seniors to Vancouver Meet. The junior lightweight crew, the double canoe champions and the single canoe champions, all of the Portland Rowing Club, will leave tomorrow night via Seattle for Coeur d'Alene, where they will compete in the water tournament held in the Idaho city. The lightweight four to make the trip are: W. C. Gregory, bow; S. N. Boquist, No. 2; George McFaul, No. 3, and G. G. Wyld, stroke. The double canoe champions, Harry W. Gammte and V. L. Hamlin, will enter all the canoe races held at the meet and from present aspects they will be returned among the winners. Gammie also holds the championship for the single canoe races. W. C. Gregory, well known Y. M.. C. A. swimmer, is entered in the swim ming events as well as Gammie and Wyld In the double canoe events. The team will leave in a private car in charge of H. G. Chickering. The local representatives will meet the Vancouver (B. C.) and Victoria (B. C.) crews at Seattle and all will go to gether to the big affair. The heavy Junior crew who will leave for the Vancouver regatta with the senior crew a week from tomorrow is made up of J. H. McDonald. bow; Eddie Sammons. No. 2; George W. Bates, Jr., No. 3, and George M. Faber, stroke. Three races between the light weight and heavyweight crews were required to decide which should be sent to each regatta. The senior four, with C. M.
