OWL TEA HOUSE WILL SETTLE QUESTIONS OF THE CHAMPIONSHIP. Both Contestants In Pink of Condition Training Has Been Carried on In a Most Satisfactory Manner Mc- Govern May Have Slight Advantage. San FrnnclBco, Cnl., March 31. "Young Corbett," featherweight cham pion of the world, and Terry McGov ern, who has hopes of recovering: the title he lost In the memorable fight at Hnrtford n year ago last Novem ber, will meet tonight In the arena of tho Hayes Valley Athletic Club to settle the question of supremacy. Tiie men are matched to box 20 rounds. If present arrangements nre carried out the boxers will face one another about 9 p. m. According to reports from their respective training nuar tors. McGovern and "Young Corbett" nre both In first-class physical condi tion. Both completed their regular training yesterday and nre doing just enough work today to keep their weight at the right figure until called upon to enter tho ring. The articles of agreement stipulate that they are to weigh in at 127 pounds nt i o'clock this afternoon. Neither anticipates any difficulty in tipping the scales nt the right figure. The fact thnt tho betting is in fnvor ot McGovern does not prove conclus ively, however, that there are not ring critics and quite a number of them, who are of the opinion that when the two little fighters face in the squared circle tonight "Young Corbett" will repent tho dose he ad ministered to "Terrible Torry" nt the Hartford meeting. These persons base their belief on the Idea that the Denverlte is the one fighter who is thoroughly ac quainted with McGovern's style of fighting and capable of getting In the knock-out blow at the first opportuni ty. They nrgiie further that a fighter prce defeated is always nt a disadvan tage when he faces his conqueror n second time. The champion, full of the knowledge that he had defeated bis opponent before, gains courage In the belief that he can do the trick a second time, while the vanquished Is more than apt to lose confidence m himself when he faces the man who has once defeated him. To compare the tactics of the two fighters Is an easv mattor. It mav ! be said thnt their style of fighting is n slight advantage over his opponent when It comes to the scientific points of tho game, but on the other hand the champion Is considered less like ly to lose his head when things get lively. Ab to hard hitting and game ness the two little fighters are about as evenly matched as ever were two antagonists in tho ring. In which ever corner of the ring the bird of victory alights the fight is certain to lie a lively contest from gong to gong. The general opinion in sporting circles is that the battle will not go nair tne limit. nj 1 fe?" 'w I IfV' M. t 1 yw'm'i fids piea.saatly. Acts Berveficially, cts truly bs a Laxative.
