K ' ; ., : ; OoUapse of Chink's BoomtaC. . Ah Wing's little boomlet has col- lapsed like a toy balloon that has fallen foul -of a lighted cigar. For' months oast Wing has furnished the comedy element of the pugilistic game here abouts. It was slwsys to laugh when he Jumped Into the thick of a scrimmage. He would clinch with his opponent snd spin so rapidly that It waa difficult to tell which fighter the-pigtaii d longea to. From the manner In . which Wing gaoveled when young Kotrhua rammed a left Jolt Into hta midriff - the other night, it is evident that he failed to ac quire a washboard stomach during all his years In the laundry business. He Is the second Chinese boxer I nave seen put out of . commission with a swat on the stomach. The ether ttore soms such name aa Fong Cbung. and It was Hugbey McOovern who did for htm at Covington, . Ky., years ago. As these are the only pugilistic celestials I have ever had knowledge of, I am forced to the conclusion that the stomach Is the most vulnerable portion of a Chinaman's anatomy. Who Win Be Matched With Brtttt Who will be Jimmy Brltt'a opponent next -month t Battling Nelson wss slated for the distinction originally, but the Dane's new manager kicked over the traces because be learned that Brltt was to receive that additional percentage, which . has come to be known as the' "champion's bit." for signing to box be fore the Yoeemlte club. Manager Coffroth refused to secede to Nolan's -demand for more money, on the ground that Nelson had already made his bar gain. Cancellation of the match fol lowed, and it' was announced that Jabes White, the "English champion, would be Brltt'a lingfeUow In April. ' t - While 'the fact that the second con test between Brltt and Nelson is to be delayed cornea lis. a disappointment to the sports, no disinterested person 'feels like laying the blame on any one In par- tlcalar. - Nelson .naturally -i would II people to believe that Brltt has delib erately thrown him down,-but It does not appear that such Is the esse."

S The above score of points is the rec ord made by the five contesting teams at Columbia university yesterday in one of the moat auooeaaf ul field meets held her In recent years. . , . -. The wearers of the winged "M," rein forced by Smlthson, the former Agric star, and . the veteran Bert Kerrigan, Buooeeded in winning the handsome sil ver cup put up aa a trophy for the vlo- tora by the Columbia university. One of the largest crowds that has ever journeyed - to the university wit' neaaed the young athletea struggle for the track honors, and each organisation waa represented by Its coterie of admir ers, who watched the struggle with anx ious eyes. Thi struggle lay principally between the Columbia lads and those from -the Multnomah club, and' all through the contest these two teams furnished a nlp-and-tuck race. Dan Kelly waa not himself yesterday; for, although he captured two eventa, he was not up to his usual form In any of the contests In which ha was entered., a flash of hla real ability waa shown when in the. second heat of the S0-yard dash ii ' ''.

A very promising youngster made his first appearance yesterday In the person of young Mays of the M. A. A. O, who handily captured the mile . run. .This youngster hss the endurance and stride of a line distance runner, ana wm un doubtedly make a showing during the coming season. . James, the big weight man of the Multnomah club, auoceeded In defeating Bailey, the T. M. C. A. crack, in the shot- nut, throwing the 11-pound shot 17 feet 4 inches. Bailey's best effort fell a foot shv of this mark. The High school hoys struggled hard. but lack of practice told against, them. but by the' time of the next meet they will be In shape to give a better account of themselves. Walsh of Columbia captured both the 440 and half-mile runs with ease. The T. M. C. A. team was handl caoted by aome of their best men being, unable to get away, notably Liabty and Merrltt. who are two of their best men, and the brunt of the as sociation team's work fell to Livings ton, who made an excellent showing. ' Taking everything Into consideration the meet of yesterday waa nlgniy- suc cessful, and the management of Colum bia university deserves a vote of thanks for the sincere interest they are taking In the promotion of athletics In all Its branches. Very little delay was ex perienced lii securing transportation to the meet yesterday, and this feature alone will serve to attract larger crowds to the meets Id the future. Manager Lonergan and Coach Tlerney of Columbia both wish to express their sincere thanks to those , who partlcl paled In making yesterday's meet such a success.
