Ban Francisco, Sept. 14. Apropos of
jVha dissatisfaction which ex lit over
the aoropleteneas of the recent clove
;eontt at the baseball grounds. Pro
moter Jack Gleason has conceived a
fcrtlllant Idea. He ears, If he haa to do
jWltb. 'other pugilistic ventures, he will

J at awards and starters and patrol Judges
and gentlemen In the conning tower de
, tferring to the occupants of the press
stand for an official ruling as to the
. rnents or a race!
' In the sport of the ring, as In the
11port Of the turf, those who are In con-
;rol should be equal to the task of keep
.Ing the game free from reproach. If
,they are not capable bf doing so, they
, are out of their element Anyhow,
"Gleason's suggestion Is not one that
. - calls for any particular discussion, as
It goes without iwylng, almost, that - the
' tnen who chronicle passing svents In
the Queensberry line would object to be
' 'Ing formed Into a rlgllanoe committee
- f the kind described. The slaves of the
.- pencil and typewriter have troubles
' ;'nough without having the responslbll
' rlty of acting as scrutineers of prise
j Wight happenings piled upon their
"anouiaera
sjomettlng Should Be Done.
Oleason'a clan was nrobablv the in-
Jfluence of a passing thought, but it was
' j,learly an Intimation that he feels
, .something should be done to keep the
sighting game within the bounds of de-
- ' erjcy. It Is little use depending upon
'he bruisers themselves to do the right
. thing. As a rule, boxers are Bedouins
- Vho wander from one puglllstlo center
v ' to another and have little care as to the
, .trail they leave behind them.
I have often felt that a fighter's at-
'tltude towards , the public is based on
tat Old vanaeTDiiuan sentiment, ana,
tot that matter, very little else could
? e expected from a fellow who Is only
in tor as long as ha Is on top and who

sjomtny of being described as a quitter
well as a loser.
- v It la understood that the police com-
i fnmee or the board of supervisors in
tends to proceed more cautiously In the
.natter of recommending fight permits
' - In the future. This Is a wise move.
5 'And, In the absence of any controlling
txxtr sucn as a Doara or stewards, me
5 I (gentlemen of tha police committee will

sible for the character of the fight of

nature of a steal. In any case. If, after

i committee, a promoter snows a bad-
. 'looking fight to get past him, ha should
be retired from tha field of promotion.
A Eleven aundred Dollars a Xdauta
fJt ' Since the revival of pugilism In San
Sh JTrendseo. there have been three con
ijlesta, vis, Brttt and Nelson, Scbreek
t, , and Kaufman, and Oans and Brltt. The
i 'combined gate receipts of the trio of
jiacraps amounted to $84,000 and it Is
i aommon report that not one of these
' events turned In a dollar of profit to
t - tha promotera In the Brltt-Qans con-
-teat, Joe made something like 11,100 a
; -tnlnute for each 80 seconds he was in ac-
5 ation while Brltt took down $700 a mln
f ''ita for putting up a losing fight. As
& matter of fact, Brltt's recompense per
minute waa greater when losing to tans
Itnan It .was whlla trlnnlnr from Welspn. '
He received barely $100
lambasting the Dane.
After Dans' maaterly handling of
Jimmy Rrltt, the man from Baltimore
was pronounced the wonder of the
Wueenaberry game. He Is as clever and as
dangerous as he was ten years ago,
said many a fight fan who watched the
one-sided contflat, but now that the ex
citement has died away and the after
math Is cooled off you can hear argu
ments as to whether Oans is really the
Oans o old.
To ths writer It looked as If Oans
was every bit as tricky and resourceful
aa In other years, but hla far-famed !
right-hand punch showed a falling off
In forca
Xas Sana Ckme Baokt
I have watched Gans In many con-
testa where it was largely a question
of how soon he would be able to create
an opening for the glove fastened to his
dextisr fist. When he brought that
right over the finish, aa a rule, waa
in sight.
At Qoldfleld, of courae, Oana was
trained to skin and bone, and hla work
showed It. but In his goes with Kid
Herman and Brltt he was thoroughly
himself in tha matter of strength and It
is on what happened in these bouts that
I hav come to the conclusion that
Oana doean't hit as hard a smash as he
formerly did. At that, hla truaty right
carries no love tap. He can sting anu
bruise with It, while his shiftiness and
suddenness generally contrive to make
an oDConent feel like a bewiiaerea nen
In a oabbaae natch.
The interest taken in the Bill Squires
Jack . (Twin) Sullivan fleht In Austra
I la Is shown by the receipt of severs
cablegrams asking as to the exaot date
Of the contest. The antlpodeans, who
are In their beds while we enjoy th
'broad glare of the noonday lun," wan
to flirure out when the news of th
result will arrive at their end and ar
ranuie their bulletin service accordingly
An American who was on hand in the
throng before the office of the Sydney
Morning Herald when the tidings of the
Burns-Squires fight came to hand told
me that the first result received was
erroneous It had Squires winning In
'forty-seven seconds.''
There was wild enthusiasm and hats
were shied into the air as though head
pieces cost notnlnr in Kangaroo-lana
Presently the news flash was corrected
and tnen mere was aeep, aumr gioom.
Said my informant: "Half the crowd
cased stuoldly at the corrected bulletin.
The others wsre silently groping for
their hats."
Squires Training Bard.
Sauires Is rlvlns himself a careful
preparation over at Shannon's. He has
Denver Ed Martin for a sparring part
ner. and he Is buoyed up with the be
lief that he will convince the Snn Fran
cisco fiaht-goers that his defeat at
Burns' hands was a good deal of a
fluke.
Meanwhile one hears discussion as
to which of the men Squires or Sulll
van will be the favorite In the early
betting. It was Jack who made such a
holy show of Jack Palmer, the game but
misguided British heavy who came over
to this side In the hopes, of annexing
the ohamDlonshlD. Jack also has a de
cision over Bums to his credit and he
has performed so well In the company
of other stars In the ring that it is
believed he will prove as much of a
tumbiina block to trie Australian otiam-
Dion's amDiuon as tiurns am.
Trie re was sman prospect or joe uans
and Battling Nelson getting together at
Nevada, for the simple reason mat
Oans wanted terms similar to those de
manded by Nolan at uoiarieia, while
Nolan was determined not to let the
negro have his way.
such beina me case it can narair be
said that Jimmy May's purpose to bet
SZ0.000 on Nelson was a ratal blunder.
If the fighters had begun to negotiate
and May had sprung anything like that

MEN WHO WILL HAVE' CHARGE OF
- OREGON'S FOOTBALL DESTINIES
V By Robert A. Cronln.
,' Oregon students will depend on Ore
i;on spirit this year to aid in developing
Wnother winning football team. The
I loss of her veterans has not discouraged
, tha supporters of the lemon yellow and
fjwhen Coach Frost takes up his work on
(September 23 he will find as entbuslaa
tlo a body of students as ever supported
a representative eleven.
Gordon B. Frost, who will have
jeharge of the destinies of the team, is
one or tne nest Known iuoiuui men iu
-the countrv. He eraduated from Dart
mouth with the class of 1904, and Wal-
Vter Camp mentioned him favorably sev
eral times In connection with his play
ing of the tackle position. Frost is an
i all-round athlete, and does not confine
;bis activity to football alone. His fjrst
'xoachlna; experience was in the south
(west, when he piloted an academy team
(through a victorious season. For two
'years he turned out splendid teams at
Seattle hlfrh school, and last year won
xiatlonal comment In taking the Seattle
high school baseball team on a profit
able trip to the Atlantic seaboard. Ore
gon's coach Is at present in the east,
and will see Walter Camp of Yale and
Held of Ilarvard on the latest points of
the games at those great colleges before
returning
i Gordon C. Moores, '08, captain of this
year's team, Is regarded by both north
west and California critics as the fast
est football man on the coast. Moores
will fill In his old position at left end
this year. Moores nas peen given
place on the all-northwest team for the
past two years, and his speed has given
tne "U" many points on rumDiea pans
Moores Is one of the most popular stu
dents on the campus, and is a member
of Kappa Sigma fraternity.
Olfn Arnsplger, Oregon's orack right
tackle, and Olen Scott, the big right
guara. are two or me strongest men on
the 'varsity line. Arnsplger, who is
senior In the university, won his spurs
when he played rings around "Big Tom"
McDonald, the Washington tackle, two
years ago. Bcott played hla first col
lege game last year, and made good
from the start. Both of these olavers
are .pencueton Doys, ana Dotn are ramu
iar fla-ures about the college. Arn
splger is a member of the Delta Alpha
rraternny. ana ecott is a Kappa Biirma,
Arnsplger weighs 166 pounds and Scott
zoo pounds.
Grover Kestly, who holds the money
baas, is from Euaene. and Is a member
of the senior class. Kestly is starting
out wen as a manager, and has the
confidence of his collesre mates. .He
also is a member of the Delta Alpha
rraternity.

TWO COMETS HAVE FLASHED UPON
THE HARNESS WORLD THIS YEAR
By Lee Anderson.
Almost countless volumes have been
written about harness stars that have
failed to star when called upon. It re
mained for 1907 to produce two comets.
Scarcely any but remember those
late winter and early spring months of
the Dresent season when Sonoma Girl
and Highball were the only two bright
spots oh the harness racing horizon.
Laat Christmas day the California mare
did her first wonderful performing.
Marvelous reports of Highball came
soon after from the training quarters of
Ed Oeers.
At Llbertyville they came together
for the first time. It was nip and
tuck between them. At Detroit it was
all Sonoma Olrl. During the Cleveland
meeting Highball was given a rest
The Buffalo meeting found Sonoma
Olrl the undisputed queen of the turf.
Then she began acting badly. At
Poughkeepsle she was defeated by
Watson.
At Llbertyville there began to be talk
of fabulous offers for Springer's mare.
And Just the other day she was sold to
Miss Lotta Crabtree for 180,000.
At the time of the sale there was
much wonderment. Did Springer know
that Sonoma Girl -could not stand the
pace? Was he Induced to sell because
he did not believe he could do the mare
Justice? These were just a few of the
questions asked.
The first race in which McHenry
drove Sonoma Girl went to Tempus
Fuglt. There were immediately more
questions asked. Was McHenry merely
foxy? Was he seeking long odds for the
Massachusetts stake? Or had the mare
really gone her limit? Everyone knew
that McHenry would certainly drive lo
win in the 89.000 classic at Readvllle.
He did. And Sonoma Girl never had a
chance.
There can be but one conclusion. So
noma Girl Is or was the most won
derful of green trotters, but she has
done her best racing, for this season at
least. Miss Crabtree paid $30,000 for
a lemon, rrom ner point of view,
Springer squeezed the speed from his
horso and sold a husk. The California
product only shows occasional bursts of
her early form. The rest of the time
sne is ugly and breaks frequently.
V Highball Is probably the better horse.
rSeers said so when Sonoma Girl won
the. M. and M. He must have believed
It sr he would never have sent the
Jones? gelding against the mare.
Thus have two comets flashed upon
the harness world this year. During
their periods of brilliancy they iet
horsemen wild. Highball seems the most
likely to survive as a valuable racr.
What Sonoma Girl will do next year can
only be a matter of the wildest conjec
ture. If Springer, who raised, trained
and made a pet of her, could not over
come her bad traits, what chance has
another driver?
Games oheduled for Today.
Kelso Tigers vs. St. Johns at St.
Johns (double-header).
Frakes va Astoria at Astoria (double
header). The Bralnard Cubs will take a launch
trip today, going to Camas, Washington,
to meet the clever team of that placa
The boys leave Merrill's boathouae at
7:80 and will return In the evening.
The Brewers are scheduled for two
games at Eugene today, playing one
game with the Eugene team and the
other with Springfield. The Eugene
and Springfield teams are fast aggrega
tions, and are made up of some of the
best semi-professional players In Ore
gon. De Neffe, who is pitching for Eu-
f ene, la considered plenty good enough
o make the Northwest or Pacific Coast
leagues. He Is an old Michigan 'varsity
man and has a long record of victories.
Tallaferlo, who Is doing a like stunt
for Springfield, Is a big fellow with
worlds of speed and good curves. Camp
bell and McClellan are playing on the
Eugene team as lnfielders. These men
are prominent in base Dan circles oi tne
Multnomah club and have good record
