After a long retirement Kid McCoy Is
anxious 4.0 get back Into the game, and Jt
Is likely that the clever Hoosler boxor
will be seen in action with some good
'men before very long.
. McCoy began yesterday negotiating
.with some of the best men in his class.
The men he wants to fight, he announced
yesterday, are Tommy- Ryan. Jack
O'Brien, Bob Fltzslmmons and Jack
Munroe. McCoy believes he can defeat
either one or all of these, boxers, and
the. plans ha has laid out for the fu
ture are Interesting and unique.
He will only agree to meet Ryan and
O'Brien in six-round bouts, will tackle
Jack Munroe for 18 bounds at Fort Erie
on St Patrick's day if the miner agrees,
and will leave Fltzslmmons go until
September, when he believes that he
will be in form that will enable him to
conquer the Cornlshman. ' '
To Tackle O'Brien Tire.
McCoy's first match will in all proba
bility be with Jack O'Brien, the clever
Phlladelphlan, who gave Tommy Ryan
Much a hard fight the. other night at the
Quaker City. McCoy has accepted, an
offer from' one of the Boston' clubs to
fight O'Brien- six rounds. It is expected
that O'Brien will accept, as he Informed
the Boston people to accept any oppo
nent to meet hlia. : 'k k -
Notwithstanding the fact that -boxing
has been stopped in Boston pendlnglhe
action' of the authorities,-word has
reached this city that ., the- game will
resume in a week or two, and it will
started by six-round fights instead of
the usual 16-round bouts. "This will be
carried out for the time being, when the
regular bouts will be carried on.
Begalnlnff Tormer Condition.'
In the hopes that he will yet win the
light-heavyweight . championship from
Fitsstmmona, McCoy is training every
day at his gymnasium on West Forty
second street. New York City. He is
rapidly rounding into, shape, and he be
lieves that with constant training he
will be able ,to cope with any of the
Heavyweights.' By the time he expects
to get a match with FiUslmmona ha
will not care how many rounds are
scheduled.:
"I will be In shape to enter the ring
into: a couple-of-weeks," said McCoy,
"but I am going to take things easy at
first. That is. I will go six rounds with
any of those good fellows. It will take
, -couple of these fights to get Ime back
in form and get my hand In swing. In
March I 'will be ready to Jackie Munroe
at Fort Erie. A boxer must be real good
to meet Fttssimmons, bull next .fall I
will be there with the goods.: I will do

POSITIVE PROOF
SHOULD CONVINCE THE GREATEST
SKEPTIC IN PORTLAND.
Because It's the evidence of a Portland
citizen. 1, :
Testimony easily investigated. ,
The strangest Indorsement of merit
The best proof. Read it:
J. Carson, employed at the Portland
Lumber Co., foot of Lincoln street, who
resides at 366 First street, says: "I was
feeling miserable with a depressing
lameness around the small of my back
all last summer. At first I did not pay
much attention to it, but it continued
to grow worse and finally became so bad
that I thought 1 would have to lay oft
work. To bend or move quickly caused
severe twinges. I was often attacked
with dlszy spells, specks appeared be
fore my eyes and I had no ambition or
energy. In the morning I arose as tired
as when I went to bed. In fact, I bad
all the symptoms of a very severe case
of kidney trouble. When I was suffer
ing the worst I read about Dean's Kid
ney Pills and- procured a box at the
Laue-Davls Drug Co.'s store. I soon
noticed an Improvement in my condition,
and the pain and aching across my back
soon disappeared. About six weeks ago
I was laid up with a siege of the grip
for two weeks. Symptoms-of kidney
complaint made their appearance again
and I resorted to Doan's Kidney Pills a
second, time. They just as thoroughly
freed me of the trouble as in the former
case. I cannot express what a change
they have made in me. I simply feel
like a different person." ' ,

TERRY TELLS HOW,
TO WHIP CORBETT
(Journal Special 8?rle.)
New Tork, Feb. 11. The coming battle
of Young Corbett in San Francisco, says
Terry McGovern, seems to attract con
siderable Interest because many persons,
and particularly those in California, - be
lieve there is a good chance of Corbett's
being defeated. The opinion ' is 'well
founded. . for whenever you have two
boxers pretty evenly matched each has
a good chance of winning. . .
' While Jimmy Britt has called oft his
match with Corbett because of the latter
agreeing to fight Dave Sullivan February
29, there Is little doubt that the battle be
tween the Pacific-coast wonder and the
champion will take place. ' . ,
Of course- Corbett will go : down j to
defeat some day, but it will have to be a
id ma
'ihal
say .that Britt is hot a good man. On the
contrary, he Is a clever boxer and more
dangerous for Corbett than Hanlon was.
Ha may be the man that will do the trick,
and if he succeeds In, defeating Corbett
I would not be very much surprised.
How to Beat Corbett.
' The way yon can beat Corbett is to give
htm a couple of wallops on the jaw with
sufficient force to jar him and then finish
GOLF ASSOCIATION
MEETING TODAY
Philadelphia golfers are awaiting the
annual meeting of the United States
Golf association in New Tork today
with no little expectancy. That one of
the championships ; will be awarded the
Quaker City appears to be a generally
accepted fact but the . question. Is,
which one? Huntingdon Valley is,, of
course, more than keen-for the amateur,
but - the strong; possibility of Merlon
applying for the women's adds interest
to the final awarding. It Is ridiculous
to suppose, that both events will be
played in Philadelphia, but no little un
certainty prevails over the question of
which club will be favored. -
The secretary of the association, Mr.
Ballou, has sent out a' circular' letter
to all the unaffiliated clubs, showing
the advantages the association offers
to its members. Among these are en
trance to national championship tourna
ments, the dissemination of golf infor

Philadelphia, Feb. ll.--The coroner's

after a bout with Lucca last week. It
was shown that Bnemo's death was due
to blood-poisoning caused by an abscess.
him. I don't think any fighter is immune
from knock-out, and if Corbett is caught
right he will take-the -count -like-all-of
If Britt wins, he will gain a victory by
mixing it and outfighting Corbett at his
own game. As I say, he has two good
hands and I should advise him to go after
Corbett from the start, avoid as many
blows as possible, but get home the left
on the Jaw and follow it up immediately
with a right on the same delicate spot.
Surely one of the blows will have an ef
fect, and If both are landed properly Cor
bett will know that there is something
doing, v . : . v
When he has him weakened, thenXor
bett's defense will not be strong, and it
will be easier to get in more effective
blows, which wllUresult in I he inevitable
knock-out for count. . L-ii:..
In mix-ups Britt knows liow to care for
himself.. For Instance, he knows how to
counter, and when ho sees a blow coming
his way which he knows he cannot duck
he will plunge light in and. let go with
the right and left That Is the kind of
work that worries Corbett
. Corbett has a good left and when he
comes in I expert -to hear that Britt has
countered, with his' right to the heart -
unification of the sport throughout the
country. : The membership already ex
tends to the newer sections of the
United States,' such as Cuba and the
eastern possessions. He says: .
'"The objects we have in mind and
which prompted us to do this are many,
and, in our opinion. Important First
and foremost, with the rapid spread of
the game the country over, we are con
vinced that a proper : development can
only be attained by the united action
of all clubs binding themselves together
under the one central organization. By
such action the general , code . of es
tablished rules will be more uniformly
observed and the existing power of the
governing body for seeing them prop
erly enforced be made more far-reaching
in its influence. Also, as all clubs
will be member of the . one national
association,: they will together be of
mutual assistance to each other In fur
thering the true interests of the game
and protecting its best traditions."
ALL-STARS TO PLAY .
SALEM Y. M. C. A.
Tomorrow night the T. ,M. Ci A. All
Stars will play the Salem T. M. C. A.
boys In. their gym., at .the association
building. The All-Stars have at last hit
their stride and expect to wlnvby a safe
margin, although the Salem boys are
there with the goods.
Last week the local boys took the
strong team from Willamette university
down the line to the tune of 26 to 17 and
confidently expect to do the same thing
with Dallas In their return game. Lowen
gardt and Conneil, the two new guards.
are showing , up. fine In practice - and
proved in the game with Willamette that
they are to be relied upon. Freeman,
the star guard, has been shifted to center,
and by his work against Pollard , he
clearly showed that he is without a peer
in this position. In Dr. Thornton and
Mackle the team posseses two very heady
and speedy forwards. As a .preliminary
to the big game the Tigers will play with
the Junior Five. These teams are light
and fast and never fall to put up an
interesting exhibition. , ,

It was decided to sell the stock of the

has already been disposed of to Ely

committee consisting of J. C. Ainsworth,
Cecil Bauer, R S. Farrell, I. N. Flelsch
ner and F. J. Richards was appointed to
sell the club. ' The whole affair was car

thought that - the capital stock of - the-
olub should be raised to S2S.O00. ; The
stipulation was made that all the old
stockholders wishing to purchase new
stock would be given the preference.
The whole, scheme was approved by a
large "vote, and' the meeting was In. the
sense of. a ratification of the plans- sug
gested and framed by the directors some

strong Individual bowlers, whose work
last evening was consistent in every
particular., , '-....
, Lee Van Horn of the George Law
rence team,, carried oft the highest av
erage per game, gaining a total of 615
pins In the three games.
' Hugo Slebals bowled splendidly In
the first two contests, but had hard
luck in the third, when he missed , sev
eral strikes by making splits that is,
having one or two pins remain standing
on each side of the alley which almost
precludes tha possibility of making a
spare. .-
The Blake-McFalls seemed . to suffer
from stage fright In tha first game, and
their opponents secured a lead of 10s
pins. , In tha second contest they took a
brace, and won by 17 pins.
The third game started oft with a
rush and strikes and spares were the
order of each frame. Had- the work
been kept up by the bowlers a splendid
score would have been the result buV

Blake-McFalls and Holloway and Slebals
for the Lawrence team ' took slumps
which decidedly damaged their aver
ages, - "" - :.-V
Capen kept his spurt In the second
game and came out with the highest
single score of the evening 204.
Tom McGulre seemed troubled with
lack of control, and had difficulty in lo
cating all the pins at once, much to
his chagrin. Tom used .to have a splen
did eye when he wore the spangles on
the ball field, and could crack the
sphere as far and as often as any of
them in. those days. But bowling is a
"darn site" different as -Tom says, and
the big balls. and the holes, for they
cause a beginner considerable trouble.
Burnett and Rutherford started off
poorly, but ot their swing toward the
latter part of the series and did some
splendid work.
Jack Hysmlth bowled his usual con

average.
