THE CALL'S SPORTS NEWS
FIGHT FANS WATCH
PUGILISTS DO
THEIR WORK
Sayers, Neil and Murphy Attract}
Large Crowds to the
Training Camps
William J. Slattery
The fine weather of yesterday afford
ed the fight fans a chance to travel
around to the various training quar
ters of the boxers who are mutcUfd
10 fight next Friday night at Dream
land pavilion under the auspices of the
Mission club. As the various aspirants
for ring glory are doing their work in
three counties, their admirers were ac
corded an ample field to select from,
and iudging irom the crowds which
flocked to the different gymnasiums, it
would appear that the coming nstig
carnival is due to create a. ripple of
excitement. "\u25a0'\u25a0-".
More than 100 members of th*
Miss-ion club turned out to see Maurice
Sayers perform at Colma. The Mil
waukee boxer has been touted far and
near as a clever, classy lad with tin
gloves, and naturally the fans have
been anxious to see him at work.
Those who were on the job yesterday
went away satisfied that Sayers will
give them all a run for the price of
admission when he goes against Mur
phy, provided that he does not blow up.
The man from the beer city is a
great worker in the gym. This much
must be said for him. The way he
showed up Kid Sikora and the tearing
little Johnny Reagan yesterday wa*
enough to convince the most skeptical
That h« could box and sidestep and
get away with all the pretty .stunts of
which the flgl.ters of the old school
were all so proud. Sayers looks to be
in good fhapp. but no one can get a
real line on him until he steps into the
ring.
Sayers has all to gain and nothing to
Jose "in the coming clash with Murphy.
In the event that he can beat the local
lightweight decisively he will stand a
good fhance to get another match here
in the near future, but on the other
hand. shouM be lose or fail to do his
best, he will be blacklisted and no pro
moter will pay further attention to him.
ilurphy entertained a big crowd of
.his San Francisco friends at Croll's,
Aiameaa. yesterday afternoon. lie
boxed six pp p °dy yunds with Kid
Burns, and after hfe work weighed
335 pounds. Johnny never looked bet
ter before any tight, and his admirers
•expect him to knock Sayers out art thin
10 rounds? If he does this he will be
furnishing a surprise, for Johnny has
never- figured as a knocker out In the
past.
The local lightweight is arf^mbl
tious sort of a chap, and already he is
ta'kir.g about challenging Nelson or
lyelsh in the event that he puts Sayers
away. Murphy may mean well, but it is
not at all likely that he can expect to
be accommodated by the stars just yet.
He has plenty of time and must show
more speed in order to climb up this
high on the ladder of fame.
Al Neil went 21 rounds before 500
fans nt th^.Mission clu'o"-s gym. First
he .took on big George Murray and
put him down for the count in the
last round. Next he sparred six lively
rounds with WflliQ O'Neil. the clev*:r
littie Australian feather weight, and
then Sam' Nelson was bstted around
for a like number of rounds. Neil
finished up by taking on a pair of big,
husky heavy weights, witli whom he
did as he pleased.
The veteran shows up well, but like
Sayers. he must convince the fans that
he is still there. He has his old lime
cleverness and his ability as a • ring
general, but whether or not he can go
15 rounds Beainst a rugged young,fel
low like Whitney and finish strong is
another question. If he can, he bids
fair to jump into popular favor once
more.
Whitney- is b^ing taught a few wise
wrinkles of the* game by Voting Peter
Jackson, who pr.ee was great in the
ting, but has fallen off during the last
three years. Whitney will enter the
ring about 12 pounds lighter than Neil,
and this is a point in the latter's
favor.
Fighting Diok Hyland and> his man
ager. Jack Perkins, are patiently
awaiting the arrival of Battling Nel
son, with the Intention of iesuiqg him
a challenge to fight on any terms which
he may see fit. Perkins seems very
confident of "inducing the champion to.
pive his man a chance, and there is a
possibility that Bat may see his way
clear to do so.
Nelson is due from New Mexico Sat
urday afternoon. He lias intimated
that he is coming here In search of
action, and from his statements Jie
evidently ban'ied on Packey. McFarland
or Freddie Welsh. Packey is out of
the question, for the time being at
least, while Welsh has other dates.
As Hyland Is on the job^ and ready to
start* something, this may be a point
In his favor. -*r\ \u25a0.._;
Ed Kepvan, who is looking out for
the interests of Jimmy Walsh, the
. Boston bantam, has a chance to go to
New York and match his man with
Johnny Coulon for the bantam weight
: championship. Coulon has practically
stated that he is* willing to give Walsh
. a chance, provided that he Is unable
to come to terms with Coflfroth for a
fio between himself and the winner of
the Reagan-Monte Attell scrap next
Monday afternoon. Keevnn probably
•n-111 start east soon if nothing turns up
here In the meantime He is almost
signed to go to London with Langford
•and fight Digger Stanley, the British
bantam weight champion.

lous position. v

was broken. Schultz was only slightly
injured. '

TRIES TO SHOOT CAT,
NEARLY HITS CAPITALIST
Herbert Baldwin Starts Crusade
Against Sausalito Felines
Herbert. Baldwin of Sausalito. on
being awakened from his slumbers by
the vigorous yeowling of a cat several
nights ago. rose from his bed, and,
seizing his revolver, rushed to the back
window and found the feline perchod
on the top of his meat safe on the
back porch. He took deliberate aim
*and fired.
The bullet, ignoring the cat, con
tinued through the shrubbery and
landed within a few feet of where Alhtn
Miller, the capitalist, and his mother
In law awaited the coming' of a 'bus
they had summoned. Miller, heedle.ts
of his dignity, leaped wildly in £n
effort to get above the range of tl'.e
bullets which were plowing up tie
earth at Ills feet. Mrs. Miller, in tre
doorway of the Miller home, shrieked.
When the capitalist regained h:s
composure he made for the Baldwin
home and was met at the door by Mrs*.
Baldwin, who endeavored to, explain:
"Mr. Baldwin is ill and could get no
sleep for the howling of the cat. He
shot the cat."
"You have more faith in your hus
band's aim than the circumstances war
rant." said Miller. "The cat is per
pectly safe." - • .
Baldwin said last night that thereat
was after his meat and that he intends
to slaughter every cat that disturbs
him. \u25a0

CLEVER FIELD OF
THREE YEAR OLDS
TO CONTEST
California Derby the Stellar
A ttr action at Emeryville
.Next Al onday
J. R. Jeffery
Because of the proximity of the Cali
fornia derby, which wilUbe the stellar
attraction of next Monday's holiday
bard, no stake js scheduled. for decision
at. Emeryville this week. ? The derby
is looked "upon as secondary only in
importance* to', the ' Burns handicap
among the stake fixtures of the season.
It,, is quite certain' that it will this
year be. /contested, by far anil away
the cteverest.. / field , , of 3. . year olds
that ever met on the coast. The list
of its eligibles includes such high class
horses at Fitzherbert, High Private,
Sempronium, , Workbox,.- Bon Homme,
Joe Madden", Lawton Wiggins, Madman,
Ocean "'" ' Queen, Cotytto, Emperor Wil
liam, Dr. Holzberg, J,ee Rose, Tom liay^
ward and Kubia Granda. -Some, of
those, named have as yet to demon
strate their ability to go-beyond sprint 7
ing distances, but; the 'probabilities, are
that the majority of them will be num
bered among' the starters.' Fitzherbert
and High Private are generally looked
upon as the likeliest of the ellgibles,
and their prospective meeting is antic
ipated with keen interest. There "is
a possibility,;that -Fitzherbert will not
be a starter,; however, and that S. C.
Hildreth. will depend upon Joe Madden
Ito win the stake. ;.Fitzherbert is ac-
I counted a nonmudde'r, and Hildreth has
had little chance to get him ready at
Arcadia on account of the long con
tinued spell of bad weather.
High Private has won two of the
season's valuable stakes, from all aged
fields and has shown himself to be a
real crack. ; The derby, route , is a mile
and . a quarter. The Palace Hotel
handicap, which he recently annexed so
cleverly.^was at a mile and an eighth,
and there seems no reason to fear the
extra furlong.* The derby is a weight
for age race, and under" its conditions
none of the leading candidates will be
penalized. High Private, being a geld
ing, will get in with 119, while both of
the Hildreth candidates will carry 122.
The Derby Trial, at a mile and a six
teenth, has been .arranged for Wed
nesday as a part of the preparation
of the" derby candidates for the su
preme test of . Monday. Several dis
tance races for 3 year olds, with
appropriate conditions, also have been
arranged at Arcadia with the same ob
ject In view. . •

RANCHER GOES DOWN
WITH LEAKING BOAT
John S. Dempsey Drowns and
John Schmitz Clings to Stake
SAN RAFAEL, Feb. ,, 14.— John S.
Dempsey, about . 60 ' years old, also
known as : "John Igo,". a rancher just
outside of San Rafael, was drowned
thia afternoon, while John Schmitz had
a narrow escape.:. . >
The two went out rqwing early in
the afternoon. When opposite the golf
links the boat commenced to, leak and
efforts to bail proving, unsuccessful
they rowed foreshore.
Upon reaching a long line of stakes
that designate the tide lands Schmitz
made a Jump and succeeded in reaching
one. .
' By the time Sohmitz secured a goocf
position he looked around just In time
to see the boat and Dempsey sink from
sight.; He called for help, but was
not heard, arid as he could not swim he
was forced to see his comrade perish.
Schmitz was still in this precarious
position when Joseph Ilammil, a car
penter, heard him. At ! a camp of
Chinese nearby he procured a boat and
Schmitz in an exhausted condition was
saved. The body of Dempsey has not
been recovered.

Shown bySCaiifornians
William Unmack
. The--Australian Rugby' team -will
leave tonight to 'fulfill its engagement
with .Vancouver. ..- The - Wallabies depart
on the Oregon X'express. As the team
hag made many\friends by Its. gentle
manly and sportsmanlike actions since
arrivalVhere n/large- crowd will be at
the Oaftland mojelto*bld it bon voyage.
Manager McMaSajrV said la «t night
that thei team- did nof expect such-hos
pitality and as had been
shown here. >\McMahon is grateful to
the public >of gan -Francisco and says
that the visit has been one of. unal
loyed, pleasure. , He thinks it remark
able tnat a -team, of i fo'relgn athletes
should be accorded -. such • hospitality.
The Australians.Jeave California 'with
deep regret, • Their stay here will al
wayg be remembered •as one of the
brightest spots of the whole tour.
For' Rugby here McMahon holds the
greatest hope and prophesies that
within five years California will be able
to compete with the best teams the
world, can produce. •
"You have the material." he says,
"and with proper .attention to the finer
points of the, gam* California will some
day take its' place: at the head of the
list of Rugby countries. In tackling,
you. hare nothing to learn, but In the
'tricks' and fine points there is lots of
room for -improvement. 1 would also
offer "the suggestion that the wing for
ward be eliminated from your play,
and you will find a great benefit by so
doing."
The team will leave Vancouver on
the steamer Moana February 26 . ior
Australia. The Wallabies will play the
Vancouver Union February, 20 and Vic

NATHAN-DOHRMANN
TENNIS CUE WON
BY LYTTON
Tournament Committee Decides
to Default McLoughlin Be*
cause He Arrived Late
Grant Smith
The second annual tennis tourna
ment for the*Nathan-Dohrmann cup was
finally completed on the Golden Gate
park courts yesterday, but the ending
was not satisfactory. The tournament
was won by Guy Lytton, wht) played
from scratch.
Maurice McLoughlin, who. won the
cup last year and appeared to be a
sure winner this. year, was the victim
of rather poor judgment on the part
of the tournament committee.* The
iatter decided, to default McLoughlin
at 12 o'clock, and when he showed up
at 12:15, ready to meet the winner of
the third round match between Lytton
>and Charles Foley, he found that Foley
had defaulted and that he too had
been eliminated in the same manner.
When McLoughlin appeared at 12:15
o'clock ready to play, the committee
again met and decided that it would
not be good policy to change Its de
cision, and MeLoughJin should be made
an example of. All this would' have
been proper if McLoughlin had been
instructed to appear before 12 o'clock,
and if the weather had not been so
uncertain. McLoughlin has numerous
prizes, and the little glory that would
have gone with hi 3 victory he will
never miss, but the fact remains that
the committee used very questionable
judgment in defaulting McLoughlin un
der the circumstances.
Of the two matches played yesterday
there is little. t«**>e said. After get
ting by Foley and. McLoughlin, Lytton
won handily from Curley in the finals.
The. latter received odds of 2-6. The
score was 7-5, 6-3. 3-6,«6-l.
In his semifinal match with Cahill,
Curley played like a world beater, but
fell down badly In the finals. Curley
received a handicap of 2-6 f,rom Cahill
and beat him 6-3, 6-0.
SACRAMENTO BOUTS CARDED

PLAY TOO SOCCEII GAMES
The games in the preliminary round
of the soccer cup competition pteyed
yesterday were without interest. At
