NewTork, Aug. 29. Leach Cross,
w uncito's greatest exponent la
the mitt wielding- came, la one ml.
In the flrat tHght of UghtwlthU.
The Qothamlte forced him way
to recog-nltlon again pr his dacisi-s
defeat of Joae Rivera, ua paeudo
JTtxlcan. in their t ourtb meeting a
short whlla ago.
Cross' .took in the boxln market
h& fluctuated mora than that of any
other fishier. One year Croaa leads
Ms constituents to believe that he ts
all through as a ringmta; that bo has
reached tha tether of bis ring- useful
neas. Tha next year ha comes through
with a brand of fighting that sends
his follower Into ecstacles and has
them proclaiming him the greatest of
living lightweights.
Leachie was believed to be "done"
as a capable performer as far back as
June, 190, when ha succumbed to
Dick Hyland in 41 gruelling rounds.
This was Leachie's first offense In
deceiving the boxing populace. Pre
vious to that grind he had defeated
some or the best 13S pounders In the
business, and had given the rreat
Packey McFarland a couple of hard
fights over six and ten rounds.
Xvsacn Z.xired to Coast.
Then a Ions' dlstanc match with
Hyland was broached, and Cross, his
eyes blinded by the promise of big
money, was lured to the coast. He
got as much as 1400 for- tugging
through 41 rounds under a broiling
sun. lie swore on nigh that he would
never again fight Non the Pacific
Hut time (and money) changes the
deepest set ideas of any man, as will
be seen forthwith.
Cross straggled home east wltb the
avowed Intention of never donning the
gloves again. But the call of the
game was too strong for him. and
two months later he was at It again,
abandoning his profession of molar
extracting for the more remunerative
calling of boxing.
He fared' successfully in bis first
few fights upon his return to the
ling, and decided to stick to it for all
he could get out of it. He cleaned the
lightweight field thoroughly during
the next three years. He eliminated
many contonders for championship
honors, while he himself made no
pretensions to the crown.
Then came the east aider's second
setback. In September of 1912,
Leachle fought so poorly against
Jimmy Duffy, of Buffalo,, that he was
declared the loser for his unfair
tactics. The following month he suf
fered another reversal. Jack Brltton
being his conqueror. Then followed
two great but losing battles against
Jose Rivers. Cross was surely through
was the universal opinion.
Then Leachie became vagrant to his
' vow. He shook the dust of New Tork
end once again tempted fate, as it is
tempted on the coast. He hiked to
Vernon, and convinced the Callfor
nian that he was a fighter after all.
"Bud" Anderson, a sensational new
comer, was selected as his opponent,
12 rounds. He then outpointed Matty
12 rounds. He then optpointed Matty
Baldwin in 20 and wnipped Frank
Barrleau up in Vancouver In a no de
cision fight.
Leach was coming back again. He
returned home again and was matched
to fight 10 rounds with Champion
Ritchie In Madison Square Garden.
Cross was now so confident In his
prowess . that he took on Young
Brown, a tough customer, as a work
out, and knocked out Ills compatriot In
five rounds.
- Then came the bout with Ritchie.
Suffice It to say or let Willie Ritchie
himself say it- Cross came within a
balrsbreadth of winning the world's
championship. Ritchie admits that
be never was hit such a powerful blow
as Cross delivered on his person in
that second round. Cross, the veteran,
the ring general, the shrewdest fight
er in the game, lost Ms poise when
a world's title and half a million
dollars were In bis grasp. He waited
too long before trying to deliver the
decisive blow. Ritchie had recuperat
ed by the time Leach was ready to
send it over, and the greatest chance
of Cross' career was gone.
Back on Coast Again.
Less than three weeks later Cross
was on the Coast again, and for the
third tlmee lost to Jo Rivers, bis
Nemesis, this time in 20 rounds. Was
Leach going back again? He put up
a miserable exhibition against the
Spaniard, yt he insisted that he was
Rivers' superior.
With this goal In view a victory
over Kivers ru wuueuiawi k
. about accomplishing It He realised
bis ambition the other day, and now
has bis tntnd set on bigger game the
chnmrjlonshin of America. Cross -has
- temporarily given up hopes of bat
tling Freddie Welsh for the world's
honors en account of the European
-tangle, vui no is not u me trail oi
' Willie Ritchie for a match with the
UshtwelKht championship of these
United States at stake. Ritchie, al
' though shorn of his world's title, still
retains the American supremacy, and
will defend It against all comers, be
ginning a month hence.

Martin - T. Pratt and Captain Dad"
Convili will supervise the workout of
me players.
Between 10 and 15 huskies of last
year's eleven will answer the call and
get In line for suits, shoes, stockings,
pads and tape. A number of tba club's
tecond team players and some new
gridironers are also expected to be on
nana.
Practice will b held every Sunday
morning during September and after
that Captain Convili will ask the play
era to report for practice on Tuesday
and Thursday evenings, in addition to
the Sunday morning practice.
The prospects for a winning' team
at the dub this season are as bright
as In the past seasons. jCaptain Con
vili, who was recently named superln
tendent of parks, will give as much
time as possible to the game, but it i
likely that some other player will be
elected to handle the team In case be
is unable to be on hand.
Pete Rodes, the sensational quarter
back of last season's team, will arrive
In Portland during the early part of
next month. Francis and Keck, who
played the halfback positions last sea
son, will report Sunday, and "Truck
etrlebig. Smith, Rodgers, ' Cherry,
Wells, Rupert, Philbrook and HeUel
will all be on the job again.
Multnomah will close its season this
year with the Thanksgiving, day game
with the University of Oregon. In
past seasons the club has always ar
ranged for Christmas and New Years
games for the public, but on account
of the Door attendance during the
last two years, no fames will be sched
uled.
Th "Winced M" team has also
cancellerl its games with the Univer
sity of Oregon at Eugene and with
the Oregon Agricultural college - at
Corvallia. Manager Pratt made this
statement last week. On out of town
trips the club has never been able to
muster its strongest players, and It Is
for this reason that the games hav
been called off.
The pregon Agricultural college Is
scheduled to play here during October
and a contest will likely be arranged
with the Willamette university. A
game with either Pullman, Whitman
or Idaho is also probable, and efforts
will be made to have the University
of Washington team play with the
clubmen.
