Walter Williams clearly tamed a four-round decision in the main ewnt of last night s smoker of tin ' Iteaver Athletic club, which w wit reused by over u thousand fans.

Working around tho body In the flint round, Walter took considerable of tho ' Steam out of Allen. Twice in the first : round lie causht the Heaver bantum Kuins away and set him spinning on his heels. McNeill, grew better in the third round but was .shaded In the third and there seemed no necessity of calling for a fourth. There was not second of the bout when it was not full of action. In that respect being better than any bout staged here re cently. ' Whenever McNeill and Wil liams hook up there is something; doinrf anil It is hoped that they will be se.n In action again shortly, when McNeill is stronger than he appeared to be last , night. ,y There seemed little reason, too, for calling a fourth bout between Knowl ton and Cronquist, both Pacific coat.t champions. Cronquist made 138 pounds for the lightweight and towered ov?r him, but the fireman's greater excell ence gained him a four round decision. . CroiKiuist scored but three clean blows "throughout the fight, and these were not ponderous enough to overcome the lead Knowlton had piled up.

The veteran was roundly applauded for his action. , Madden, of the Multnomah club, had Stockdale, unattached, on the floor most of the time In the first and sec ond rounds, knocking him down six times, yet when Ernie ran afoul of a purtch that slowed him up a bit in the third round, partisan fans "booed" the decision in favor of the brunette.

He was assured that It certainly wa. Ess CbamploB Sized Up. "Good wind is what has helped me out in all my battles," declared Tommy. "However, I know Ritchie is a tough ,; bird to beat, and that is why I-am train ing so faithfully. Remember, I saw -Ritchie Jn his bout in New York with Leach Cross, and I have him pretty well sited up." (Ritchio was down to 136 pounds when he finished his work yesterday. He went through the usual performance of handball and rope skipping, and wound up with six rounds of boxing. The champion now plans to carry on M Doxinir work as late as Monday, and may even don the gloves Tuesday. "I don't think it is the best scheme in tHe world to lay off from work two or;, three days before a fight," said Ritchie. "I prefer to keep going right up to the last moment, as it. loosens up the muscles better." Foley's Flan for Welffht. Manager Harry Foley, who Is watch ing Ritchie's condition like a hawk, said he planned to take u half pound off his chartre today, another half pound to morrow and three quarters of a pound on Monday and Tuesday. "Ritchie was never better," said Foley. ' 'Ho tells me he Is feeling stronger and faster than when he met Leach Crosa, and he looks and acts the part. 11 frame of rnlnd Is all that It should bit.

The Tennis tournament will be held at Eugene, Or., on May 22 and 23. The events will be men's singles and doubles. The appointing of a record commit tee also came up before the managers in the morning session. It will be the duty of the committee to compile all football, baseball, basketball and track and field records. The 1914 track and field meet was awarded the Washington state college and Athletic Director Binder announced that the meet would be held on May 29.

RALPH GRUMAN SHOWS OTOE'S PARTNER HOW TO GET VERDICT Portland Boy Reverses Deci sion Secured Over Him by McVeigh, NONE OF THE BIG SHOW San Francisco, Dec. 6. Fight fans who saw Anton La Grave of San Fran cisco and Al migers of New York, mid dlewelghts, box four fast rounds to a draw here last night were convinced that It will require at least ten rounds for the men to settle tho question of supremacy. La Grave shook his man frequently from head to heels with driving rights but Rogers managed to even up the score in the infighting. Rogers appeared stronger in the clos ing round than the San Franciscan and many believed the New Yorker would register a knockout In a longer contest. Fritz Holland easily won the decision from "Stockyards" Tommy Murphy and Tom Nlckola stopped Johnny Suden bcrg In the third round. Ralph Gruman, the Portland feather weight, who has been one of the busiest fighters down here, added to his laurels by reversing; a verdict Jimmy MoVelgh secured over him recently. He put It all over McVeigh, who has been helping to train Willie Ritchie and who has been boosted as one of the clever four rounders. The other bouts resulted as follows. Tommy Stevens won the decision from Frankie Jones; Jack Vuchlnich won on a fou4 in the second round from Sailor Carroll; Leo Creviere and Eddie White boxed a four round draw; Tom Wharton knocked out Hans Wagner, and Billy Murray stopped Bailor Machado in three rounds.

"I had rather be a day laborer on the Pacific coast than manager of a team in the big leagues." This was the way Walter McCredie, manager of the Portland Coast league club, expressed himself "here today when he admitted that an owner of a major league club had offered him the man agement of his team with the privilege of naming his own salary. "I'm too happy on the Pacific coast." said McCredie, "to leave. Portland, too, Is the best town in the United States, and Its going to be my home always. And besides, I would never leave Judge McCredie, to whom. I owe all such suc cess as I have had. R- 8. H. Gruman, brother of Ralph, this morning received a wire from the Port land boxer, stating that he left the ring without a mark, while McVeigh was all cut up in the four rounds. Ralph asserts the eastern boy was lucky to stick out the four rounds. McVeigh has been one of Champion Willie Ritchie's chief sparring partners, while Gruman says that he is going to train with Ritchie for the rest of the week. He will fight again on the nineteenth.
