club, and Carlaon. formerly with the
Columbus club, in the 135 pound class.
There is a great deal of rivalry be

Frank Huelat, Multnomah's new III

T By W. V.' Nanghton.
San- Francisco,- Dot 25. This coming
Wednesday New Tork City will have It
first glimpse of. Lightweight Champion
Willie Ritchie in action and. lust what
ktnd of an impression Ritchie will make
upon th eastern fight follower: re
main to be seen. Willie and Leach
Cross are to clash in a ten round bout
Ritchie, . according to what bas been
flashed across the wires, bas unlimited
reliance in hl ability to handle young
Mr, Cross In a masterly- manner. As
Willie occupies the pround position of
king of ( the . lightweights, be could
hardly be expected to talk In any other
strain. - , , . . , ,.
la deference to bis exalted station, a
champion ha to radicate confidence r-4

failed to do so the public would slacken
up its hero worship and It may be the
man he Is training for will not eomc with

Immemorable the under dog Is supposed
to laboc under- when He finds himself
in the presence of pugilistic royalty.
wiuie za a TUnker. -Apart
from all that however. Willi
Ritchie 1 a thinking individual and ue
probably -. recognise that - the coming
test will prove a serious ona. ::-
To begin with. Leach Cross baa spe
cialized over the ten round distance and
la thoroughly- at home In a bout of that
length. He ha started on so many ten
round Journey that he know or should
Know how fast be can rate himself
without overtaxing his condition.
This . Is something that ; works both
ways, It enables a man to tell If th
other fellow Is crowding on more sail
mat ne win be able to. carry. Fortuiad
with power of discernment ' of this
kind, a man who knows the short bout
game from-A to Z can contrive to keen
something In reserve and make It de
cidedly uncomfortable for an opponent
who has fought himself Into a state of
weariness; ys-v-,. ,-' '..fv'f-i::
The again Leach Is a tricky: fellow.
Int the -matter of sending In a sting
ing punch when least expected, be Is a
veritable surprise ' package. - There is
no particular continuity to his work, a
he shows to poor advantage occasionally
against mediocre boxers and performs
brilliantly in high class company.' He
Is not to be gauged by what be did
in pis last battle or the one before, .and
he sandwlehea 'y good - showings. la
amongst bad. In such . a. way that th
highest tribute one can pay him is to
pronounce him a dangerous man. .
Whlla; Willie Ritchie 1 to afl In
tents and purposes a product of Qan
Francisco's four round phase of box
ing, it cannot b said that he shows
to advantage over : short distances.
There Is a story extant for that matter,
that he recognizes as much and that
he recently deoided to take a leaf out
of Bob Fitsslmmons book. . . . ,u
"v o,Ts ntsalmiaoBs' Btylsi' "".'.-.
Bob In his later fights around New
Tork found that be could not limber
up to satisfy himself and he inaugu
rated a practice, of warming up In his
dressing room with one Of hi sparring
partners . before . entering . . the ring.
Ritchie, it Is said, believes that a course
of that kind would enable him to get
down to his bearing more quickly after
the starting gong rang, and he told
some of his friends that ha Intended
to go In for loosening up exercise In the
manner of Fltzslmmons. , '
1 Maybe the coming bout, .with Cross
will mark the ! beginning -of this new
order "of things .so far as Ritchie la
concerned. Far be It from the writer to
disclose any ' man's' scheme of battle.
but a Willie has made public property
of bla aystem, no -confidence are be
trayed in tbia especial instance. 1 '
Just watch out, V.Lech, if Willi

spirited set-to with.-, on of hi . aides

ilow&ss Reared Setter.
It was the fight with Rivers ihat
convinced Willie he would have been
the better for little warm-up prior
to taking the ring. It also convinced
the spectators that Ritchie, is slow to
get going. It did more.- It mad fel
lows wno naa oet neavny on. Kitome
feel for a while that they had barked
up the wrong tree.
Little wonder, for of all the be-drag
gled world's champions .that were ever
seen, Ritchie wa the worst in the early
rounds of that match. Knee hit the
ground; his hair came down over bis
eye and bis head snapped this way and
that under Rivers' pestering fire. .But
Rivers 'gave out and it came all right
after awhile. ' ' - i
The four round bout with Ad Wolgast
was about the only vmatcb iln which
Ritchie got -to. wore: quickly. He stag
gered Wolgast with well placed rights,
but even this was; condoned on the score
that it wa Wolgast' first essay after
hi operation, the argument being that
Ad at the time was more a subject for
a sanitarium than a prize ring.
Af'tovTviiat with ; Maadot,
In the match with Joe Mandot at New
Orleans, Ritchie was very late In put
ting in bis betlicka, and, striking nn
average of his performances he ia more
at home In long bout than shorter ones
Ritchie, albeit- his ring work, is not
of the scintillating kind. Is a hard man
to down. : lie , is gam beyond . ques-
!tion, although you might hot think so
- on account of the extreme caution he
displays In making of matches., ,

give the winged "M" follower an Idea
of the club's strength against tbe Uni

th score of 49 to 6. Tb University of

by the score of 18 to 7, and the WashT

Multnomah yesterday, beat Bremerton,
It to IS. t ,',!,. - " l
' Tbe line-up of tbe navy team Is muob
different this season from what it was
last year. Ogllvl and Reed are tbe
only members of last seaeon'a eleven
on fhe team now. Captain Toung, who
playa tbe quarterback ' position, is 'a
steady player, and -may be able to bold
the club score down,- ..:
If Multnomah aucceed in runnltafup
a score aa high as Oregon did against
th sailors, a close gam can be ex
pected on Thankaglvlng day between the
varsitr na the ciuo. ,
The Bremerton line-up Will probably
be: Sloan, right and; Armstrong, right
tackle; Boardman, right guard J Cowles,
center: Borman, left guard; Ogllvie, left
tackle; Reed, left end: Toung, quarter
back; Staler, left half ; Harrison, right
