AMERICA'S CUP IS
TEMPTING A DUKE
Sutherland Reported Anxious for
Try at the Famous Yacht
\ ing Prize
(ING'S DEATH MAY INTERFERE
rloped That Great Race Will Take
Place During the Sum
mer of 1911
NEW YORK, May- Sl.—Although no
ifliclal information Could bo obtained
It the New York Yacht club, it 1h mn
•rally understood that a challenge Cor
.lit> America's cup will lie received from
lie (Julio of Sutherland, the contest to
>c arranged for the summer of 1911.
Kb to whether or not the death of King
Edward will temporarily put :i halt to
my euch plans in England is a matter
>f conjecture! and there is no evidence
>ne way or tho other on which to prcdl
ratc a fixed belief.
When the nrst announcement was
liade, a few weeks ago, that the duke.
)f Sutherland intended to try to lift
;ho Americas cup the news was re
:elved by yachtsmen generally with
tonstderably mor« acclaim and enthus
usin than any similar statement during
;ho last few years. The duke of Suth
irland i;~ well known in Knglish and
•r ntlnental yacht racing circles, and it
8 believed that his challenge, if It
•eilly materializes, will not be sur
rounded with any difficulties.
Many yachtsmen on this aide of the
Atlantic are taking the report of the
luke'a intention quite seriously. Noth
lig has been said so far as to the type
>f craft or as to any changes In the
measurement rules, the. last named be
ng a great bogy with Sir Thomas
Lipton, who sought to have them
unended considerably.
There seems to be no likelihood that
the New York Yacht club, holder of the
America's cup, will agree to any such
ihangea in the near future. Hut It Is
lot believed—the opinion being based
jii statements attributed to the duke
)t Sutherland—that this condition win
in any way Interfere with the much
hoped for contest if the duke finally
locs decide to go after the great tro-
?hy.
Just when the formal challenge will
:.e received is a matter of guesswork
at the present time, and th« king's
Seath has added greatly to this conjec
tural condition. It seems probable,
however, that before, the snow flies
again the New York Yacht club will
nave been apprised of the duke's Inten
tion, and will have signified its willing
ness to accept the challenge If it is
formally made.

FAST MATCHES ARE ON CARD
Two Days' Play Begins on May 23
and Concludes Follow
ing Monday
"The Pacific States Lawn Tennis as
sociation announces an invitation
lawn tents tournament to bo played on
the now cement courts on Mt, Wash
ington, Loe Angeles, chi., on Satur
day, May 28, and Monday, May 30,
1910." Thus heralded the offlola.l «m-
nounoeinonts of tin- new annual tour*
ney have Just bean put Into the hande
at Uncle Bam and, with th« final ar
rangement! completed, tha event lookn
like the "beet ever" in the line of the
court game on local (i< ■<
With an assembly of cracks not to be
equaled outside of the experts at New
port ana Longwood the meet promises
to show a stage of the game new
among the followers of the sport
around the local camps. The courts
at the cloud resort are among the fast
est In the world and the Invited play
ers will be able to keep the pace.
A match of world-wide Interest Is
to be the climax of the tournament
when Mias Hazel Hotohklss, woman
champion of the United States, and
Mlsa May Button, 'late holder of that
title and ex-champion of all England,
will again faro each other in an ex
hibition of the highest art of the femi
nine game. Local experts are divided
as to the outcome of this match, some
thinking that the northerner's heavier
volleying and net play will overbal
ance the local champion's drive. The
majority, however, are inclined .. to
choose Miss Button as the better, count
ing upon her superb generalship at.
the game and her record of the past.
FEATURE WORK
The main features of the Mt. Wash
ington event will be the Button-
Hotchkiss match on Monday, the Ma-
Jjoughlln-liund/ meeting scheduled
for Saturday, and) the Long-Bell match
to be played as a preliminary to the
Monday afternoon racket work. Some
of the best tennis, however, will be
seen In the mixed doubles and men's
doubles matches which will constitute
the major portion of the two days'
schedule. The four-sided mutches al
ways present a faster game for the
spectators as the players do not have
to cover as much territory, besides,
there being more chance for "killing"
and smashing, a much speedier style
of play la developed.
Miss Hazel HotChkiSfl and Maurice
McLoughlln, Miss Golda Myer and Dr.
Sumner Hardy, Miss May Sutton and
Tom Bundy, Miss Florence Sutton and
Cllffton Herd, Mrs. B. O. Bruce and
Claude Wayne, Miss Alice* Scott and
Gerald Young and Miss Mary Browne
and Slnsabaugh will be the seven teams
to furnish the art work In the mixed
events. Close followers of the work of
the entrants look to the first named
to capture the honors of the tourney
as neither May nor Bundy have had
the necessary practice together to bring
home the victory. On the contrary the
northerners have been paired in a
great number of the western tourna
ments and work together harmonious
ly. In the meeting of these two teams,
who will undoubtedly be the contes
tants In the final play, there should
be some of the finest whirlwind court
work of the tennis season.
MTN'S DOUBUJM
There are twelve teams entered in
the men's doubles: McLoughlln and
Long, Summer Hardy and Alphonso
Bell, Tom Bundy and Trow Hendrick,
Nat Browne and Slnaabaugh, Wayne
and Varlel, Hopper and Duncan,
Overtoil and Bumiller, Freeman and
Holmes, Dawson and Young, Mace
and Herd, Harry Rogers and Charlie
Rogers and Salisbury and Bacon. The
event, unless something unforseen oc
curs, will rest between the McLough
lin-Long combination and the Bundy-
end rick pair. The first named were
the American representatives in the
International tournament in Australia
last year and are talked of as possible
invaders of that country with this
year's team. Although they do not
work together with the precision and
regularity of the coast champions, Mc-
Loughlln and Janes, their work was a
surprise to enthusiasts last season
when they played together for the
first time and,, as both are ranked
among the first ten players of the
world In the racket game, they should
show some fine class in the coming
matches. Bundy and Hendrick, a new
doubles team from the local strong
holds, are expected to give the inter
nationalists the run of their lives. If
these two aggragations meet in the
finals as they are "doped" to, one of
the finest smashing and driving
matches ever seen either east or west
will' take place. Hendrick, erstwhile
interscholastlo champion and near-Pa
lie coast champion, Is coming back
into his old-time form and more, and
wilt be a serious contender in future
computations of aspirants to champion
ship honors. His smashing of short
lobs and tremendous "kills" of the
high ones are only equaled by Alphon
so 8011, and he possesses a strong fore
hand stroke which is declared to. sur
pass the kill-drive of the auburn
hatred deizen of Frisco, McLoughlin.
Bundy's serve has always been a puz
zle to his opponents and It has won
him more games than McLoughtln's
twist Which so disconcerted the Brookes
and Wilding combination in. the Aus
tralian contests. Experts locally ex
pect Bundy and Hendrick to bring
I the prizes home but the match will not
| be a walkaway for either pair.
ANOTHER IWST MATCH
Tonnis enthusiasts of tho local court*
will always remember the great Bun
dy-Mcijougrhlin contest at Venice last
year when the local player annexed the
victory only after losing a love sot to
thn northerner and coming pretty cIOM
to the losing end himself. Saturday
afternoon at Mount Washington will
witness andother fast match between
these two star* and there Is no one
who Is able to pick the winner from
past meetings, as the wins have see
sawed backward and Forward, although
McLoUghttn I* rated a lew i.inUs above
Bundy In the national tennis stand
ing.
Tho match between Melville H.
Long of University of California and
Alphonso Bell, ex-Pacific coast cham
pion, will prove to be onn\>f the big
events of the tournament.' Bell was
tho victor In the last meeting of tim
pair and Long has been anxious ever
since to get another chance at the
lengthy rancher. Both players use
somewhat the same general style of
play: both are of about the same
build, and the match .should 1 show
some of the best strokes of the two
days' exhibitions.

BAT SURE HE CAN
WIN BACK TITLE
Former Champ Says He Didn't
Prepare for Fight with
Ad Wolgast
NEW YORK, May 21.—Oscar Mat
thew Battling Nelson, the former
lightweight champion, continues to
talk of hie loss of the title to Ad Wol
gast o* Milwaukee. Nelson states
that he la not "all in," as many think,
and that he is still the same game
little fighter the sporting word knew
so well. As Is to be expected he wants
another chance at Wolgast.
The following are rarts of Nelson's
opinions regarding his fitness and
ability to win back the lightweight
championship:
"I made my mistake when I fought
Wolgast. But it Is nno I will never
make again. You ace, I underestimat
ed Wolgast and did not prepare for
; him the way I should. It was a case
| of his catching me off my guard. Wol
] gast says that 1 will be the first man
to get a chance at him. Well, I'm
glad of that. I can defeat him this
time, I am sure.
"There are a whole lot of persons in
this country who would not care to
In I on my chances to win back the
lightweight championship. They're
I thfi ones I am going to fool. They
think that I have joined the 'down
and-outers.' 1 am not satisfied with
that fight with Wolgast. He must
knock me out before in- is really the
champion. Wolgast can't go the long
route again, and that is how I am
going to win back the title. Had 1
fought harder than 1 did during the
rarly part of our lest light Wolgast
would never have been able to go as
long as lie did.
"Another thing is that a champion
ought to be soundly licked before they
take his title away from him. If Wol
gast had put me out I wouldn't have
liad a word to say. He chopped me
Up and slashed me around the head a
good deal, but it wasn't a circum
stance to what Gans handed me at
Goldfield. Now Wolgast never put
me down once during that whole fight.
He was down twice. 1 was bad at the
finish and I was tired, but 1 was stall
ing along, trying to save something
for a strong finish, and you can bet
your life that any time they get Bat
Nelson tired the other fellow's tired,
too. They stopped it. I'm not criti
cising the referee. I haven't opened
my mouth about that, only—well, I put
many a game fellow away, and before
I'm done somebody ought to put me
away. Do you gel me? I couldn't
claim that I won thKt fight; I couldn't
go as far as to claim a draw; hut 1
(in say that as long as I can get up
there ami waggle my hands 1 want
the fight to go on."
Nelson went on to state that the
fact of losing tlie lightweight cham
pionship has not hurt his popularity
any. Since the Wolgast In ml Nelson
said ho lias cleared over ?8000. Ac
cording to Nelson, Wolgaat has made
but $6000.

JOHNSON TOO LAZY, IS
OPINION OF FIGHT FANS
Big Dinge Resents Criticism of
Methods and Says There's
Lots of Time
SAX FRANCISCO, May 21.—Jack
Johnson's leisurely methods of train*
Ing have already commenced to cause
lei able commi m among the
sporting fraternity, and unless the big
jtnokc K''ts down to the real business
of conditioning himself very shortly
he will be the target for a world of
criticism.
While It has been generally under
tood thai Johnson has been taking
matters easy, it was not brought to
public attention until this afternoon,
when the "fans" discovered that the
donrs of the big pavilion were closed
ami that Johnson would do no boxing.
instead of working in the gym three
tlmca a week he has cut it down to
two, with the promise that next week
or the wei k after he will be boxing in
real earnest.
Whether it la just because Johnson
!ik<s a lazy 1 ir • - is not known, but
there is a rumor around his quarters
that ha discovered his weight was
dropping away too fait and that, he
was fearful lest lie might go .■'tale
before the Fourth of July.
"I am srointr to train just p« oMita
myself and not the public," declared
Johnson somewhat angrily, when
questioned why he did not go into the
gymnasium.
"As I said when I first came to Cali
fornia, no one In the wide world Is
X"inn to dictate the amount of work
that is done except Jack Johnson. I
have always attended to my own
training and urn too old to let the
public disturb me. I didn't go into
the gym today simply because I did
not need the work. With as much
time ahead of me I would be a fool to
knuckle down to boxing. I would be
sure to go into the ring stale, and I
want to be right fo: Jeffries.
"Ordinarily I box three or four
weeks for a flffht, and as I will work
right up to July 2 you can see for
yourself that there will be enough
time. I could easily have postponed
my work until the first of June. An
soon as I am gooU and ready I will
box four times a week, but that is all."
"Jt was the same old story on the
road this morning," declared one of
Johnson's handlers as he returned to
camp lagging behind the big dlnge.
"Jack is in great shape for road work,
and he sprints a lot nowadays."
Johnson went over the same course
that he has been using. In the. after
noon he took his automobile for a ride.
It is expected that Sunday will be
another dny at the pavilion. Johnson
will box nine rounds, according to his
present plans.
JEFFRIES WHIPS STREAM

BEN LOMOND, .May 81.—Although Jeffrlu

back to his afternoon fishing with a deter

his lodge, declaring he was but little fatigued
with the day's workout.
