FOUR ROUND KING
WILL FIGHT FAIR
Says There 9 s No Occasion to
Fear Foul Tactics on
His Part
WILLIAM J. SLATTERY
The fear that One Round Hogan
ir.ight possibly tear loose, throw pre
fautioa to the winds and accidentally
ioui o'ohnny Frayne prompted Referee
Eddie Hanlon to pay a visit to Hogan
at San Rafael yesterJay and talk over
the rules with him. After he had chat
ted with the sensational lightweight
for half an hour Hanlon felt satisfied
that Hogan understood the rules and
that there would be no trouble on that
score.
So much has been eaid and written
about Hojan holding his men and up
percutting them in the clinches that
many were fearful that he might break
the rules and toss away his chance
against Frayne. Hogan seemed sur
prised that the fans should fear for
his rough tactics. He expects to beat
Frayne and beat him quickly, but he
says that he is willing to lose the first
time he indulges In foul tactics.
"All I want is a chance to keep
going." said Hogan to Hanlon. "You
will not have to watch me. I am not
going to hold on. All this talk about
my grabbing them with one hand and
hammering with the other comes from
a lot of fellows who don't watch me
closely or don't understand the rules.
If I foul. Eddie, give Frayne the de
cision."
"I Uon't want to giv« it to anybody
on a foul," replied Hanlon. "If you
box according to the rules and keep
your head there will be no danger of
anything- of the sort. I won't lay my
har.ds on either of you unless you are
locked in a clinch and refuse to break
when I tell j'ou to."
"That's good enough for me," cut in
the one round terror. "Let me fight
and I will be satisfied and happy. But
I want to yarn you not to stop the
contest in case I am knocked Uown and
somebody tosses a towel into the ring.
Don't pay any attention to it. I want
to be stowed away clean if I am to be
stowed away at all. None of my sec
onds has any authority to come to. my
rescue with a towel."
Evidently Hogan is figuring on mak
ing quick work of his one time friend-
He Is training for a hurricane mill and
the chances are that he will carry it
right to Frayne Just as soon as the
gong 1 sends them to the middle of the
ring next Saturday afternoon.
Hogan went six rounds yesterday
afternoon at Shannon's, three with EJ-
die Dennis and three with Trainer
George Green. There is nothing lack
ing in Hogan's makeup. He is fast,
accurate with his punches, aggressive
and apparently In fine physical condi
tion. After he finished up he jumped
on the scales and they said he was 135
pounds, a nice weight for the lad.
Hogan and Green broke the record
for the run over the hill and around
by Kentfleld yesterday morning. This
is a strenuous course of nine miles and
the record. 1 hour and 15 minutes, was
v held for several years by Jimmy Britt.
Hogan and Green negotiated the course
yesterday in 1 hour and 5 minutes, and
the young lightweight looked fresh
and strong when he finished. This
shows that his wind is about right.
Hogan has had a lot of trouble with
his sparring partners, but in Eddie
Dennis he seems to have landed the
very boy for his own peculiar style of
work. Dennis is a great little fighter
as well as a clever boxer and the work
outs he has been giving Hogan show
their effect. It is likely that Hogan
will be able to complete his work with
Dennis alone.
Green will lay his man off today
after the morning road work. He will
do his last heavy boxing tomorrow
Frayn<» went six rounds over at Al
White's place yesterday afternoon. He
had a good two round setto with
Jimmy Allen, a speedy Canadian light
weight., and then he took on Charley
Reilly for his regular four round bout.
Frayne still looks like a welter
weight, but apparently he is within
striking distance of the 133 pound
mark, for this is not causing him the
lp&st bit of worry. He has trained
harder for this one than any contest
he had around San Francisco, and
if he is not right when he goes against
Hogan it will be a sure sign that he
never will be right again.
Frayne's defensive work is remark
able. * Apparently he has been paying
more attention to this on account of
Hogan's tearing reputation. None of
hss -sparring partners stand the slight
est chance of hitting Johnny with their
right hand. Occasionally they land
with a left to the head, but he keeps
hi? body so well protected that his
sparring partners lose heart in trying
to wnip in an effective punch there.
Frayne has about completed his
training. He intends to taper off today
nnd tomorrow and and practically lay
up all his strength Friday so as to be
Ftrong for the fray Saturday. Frayne
has practically promised to take on
Frankie Burns of Oakland in January
if he wins from Hogan and finds a pro
moter who is willing to stage this con
test. Burns, who has been watching
Frayne daily, picks him to defeat the
one round celebrity.
The sale of seats for the battle will
open at noon today at Gunst's. SOO
Marßet street: Tom Corbett's, 271
Stevenson street and 1517 Ellis street,
and the Mecca, 1008 Broadway, Oak
land.
All indications point to a .large
crowd, provided the weatner holds out.
Promoter Louis Blot has been ap
proached by an insurance broker, who
wants to insure him against rain, and
this proposition may be accepted.
Johnson Agrees to Meet
Sam or Joe
CHICAGO, Dec. 13. — Jack Johnson,

occur in Paris next February in a 25
round bout to take place in France
next April for a puree of $25,000, pro
vided the money is posted in America

reason I Insist on an American ref
eree," said the champion, "is because I
Jo not want any lemons handed me.
If they don't come across with my two
conditions then there will be nothing
doing."

DAN McGANN FOULS
OUT IN LIFE'S GAME
LOUISVILLE, Ky., Dec. 13.— "Dan" McGann, former
captain and first baseman of the New York Nationals, com
mitted suicide here today.
McGann was found in his room at Bosler's hotel at 4
o'clock this afternoon with a bullet hole over his heart and a
revolver in his hand. He had been dead several hours.
No one had seen him since last midnight, when he was

this afternoon to clean it, discovered the body.

to secure him for the Louisville team for next season.
So far no cause for his suicide has developed.

mer at Midway, Ky., where he had^been station agent of the

St. Mary's Seniors Win
From Bankers
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
OAKLAND, Dec. 13. — The seniors
were treated to a surprise by the bank
ers in the interclass basket ball tour
nament at St. Mary's college when the
latter team made a sensational spurt in
the last half, but did not succeed in
tying the score, and the seniors won,
20 to 14. An easy game was expected
by the seniors and they had put a weak
team in the field, but the bankers
forced them to exert themselves to the
utmost.
Eight points were run up by the
banking five before the Benlors could
get their bearings, but at the end of
the first half the final year men had
succeeded in forging ahead 15 to 10.
The bankers brought the score up to
14, but could not get beyond that and
the other team gradually drew away.
Tomorrow the final game of the aca
demic division will be played with the
second and third academic teams as
the contenders. From the showing
made so far the second year men will
win by a close margin, although in
the games already played the other
team has shown bits of speed.
The teams were:
Seniors — Miller and Russell, forwards: Calla
r.aii and Burke, center; Pona'd. King, Latullpe
and Andriano, guards.
Bankers — Bcro and Kelly, forwards Leonard,
center: Xerls and Gocnuieo. guards. ..

OHIO WINS WAGER
BY CLIMBING HILL
Motor Car on Way From New
York to San Francisco
Shows Power
R. R. L'HOMMEDIEU
To Journey till the way from New
York to the v/ildn of Alabama to dem
onatrnto th^ ability of an automobile
and to climb a mountain heretofore
roararded n.9 lnarceesible Is a feat that
has Just been accomplished by a party
of. automobllintH on route from Gotham
to Ran FranoJuco on a pathflnding tour
by way of the northern states. The
mountain in question is known as
Snnny mountain. ?6 miles south of Tus
cumbis. nrcr tho town of . Courtland,
Ala., and the automobile that climbed
it Ib the Ohio car conveying E. L.
Fergiißon of the American automobile
association, who Is collecting the data
for the new southern route from coast
to coast. ...'^ '.,.'-..'.
The successful climb was the out
come of a v/asrer made between John
T. Hall, a former Alabaman, now a
New York theatrical man, and J. W.
McCutcheon, one of this year's Glldden
tour, entrants. Hall, who has toured
the west and south extensively in his
automobile, once attempted to cross
Sandy mountain with disastrous re
sults. He has since regarded it as a
"graveyard" for automobiles. When
he learned of McCutcheon's interest in
the Ohio's pathflnding tour and that
the party would cross Alabama he of
fered to wag-er $1,000 that Sandy
mountain could not be climbed. Ac
cordingly the route through Alabama
.was altered to make the attempt.
It is a climb of a mile and a half up
a steep, rocky road full -of gulleys and
ruts.and exceedingly dangerous for any
vehicle, and is avoided even by farm
ers driving mule teams. The Ohio
pathflnding- car negotiated it in 43
minutes, counting time lost in hauling
the car back to the roadway after it
had skidded down a five foot embank
ment.
The pathfinders, who, besides Fergu
son, include G. W. Finney, represent
ing the Ohio motor . car company;
Charles Thacher and Fred D. Clark,
left Memphis December 8 for Helena,
Ark., en route to Dallas, Tex.

WOLFE SLATED FOR
DELEGATION LEADER
Senator From Twenty =first to
Be Chairman of San Fran*
cisco Legislators
By GEORGE A. VAN SMITH
Senator Eddie Wolfe is to be chosen
chairman of the San Francisco joint
senate and assembly delegation. The
date for the adjourned meeting has
been fixed, as have been many differ
ences of opinion touching control of the
delegation that may have existed.
Unless there is some eleventh hour
switch, Wolfe will be chosen chairman
of the delegation tonight and the choice
will be unanimous. The choice or
Wolfe for chairman of the joint dele
gation is not in the nature of a com
pensation sop for the loss of the honors
of president pro tempore that have
been Wolfe's for years.
Wolfe is entitled to the chairman
ship of the San Francisco delegation
by virtue of his seniority, but that is
not the reason underlying the selection
of the senator from the twenty-first
district to lead the allied hosts from
San .Francisco. He is the choice of the
long hairs and short hairs alike be
cause he is the most skillful floor man
on the delegation.
JOB MEANS HARD WORK
If there were any differences be
tween Wolfe and Tom Finn, who is
the impresario responsible for a con
siderable portion of the San Francisco
delegation, those differences have been
removed. The berth of chairman of
the San Francisco delegation is not one
of especial honor, but it does involve
much hard work of the kind that gets
no red fire for the worker.
Assemblyman Nat Coghlan, senior
member of the lower house delegation
and several times its chairman, is
again to the fore in the discussion of
the probable leader for, the assembly
delegation. In the old days the chair
manship of the San Francisco delega
tion meant anything but easy honoTs.
The chairman's chief duties consisted
of voting his charges right according
to the organization program and ap
pearing in the dual role of apologist
for them both to the masters of the
organization and the people. Things
are not the same now. Coghlan has
the ability, is a ready debater and a
trained legislator. In an uncontrolled
assembly he should be able to dis
tinguish himself as the chairman of
the largest delegation.
AGAIXST TICKET PROGRAM
It is pretty generally understood now
that the republican county committee's
purposes as related to the next munic
ipal campaign - have , been misrepre
sented. Men in the ranks of committee
leadership say that the purpose of the
banquet postponed until M.onday night
is to guard against the springing of a
ticket rather- than to make a ticket
program. If their policies are adopted
by the committee, it will decide to
maintain and strengthen its organiza
tion in every precinct, but it will have
no part in putting any candidate into
the primary race. After the field is
I fiilled, it is the purpose of the leaders
to have the committee and its organ
i ization get_ behind the candidates,
whose election, in the opinion of the
! committee, would be of the greatest
I benefit to the city.

JUDGE WILL SPEED
THE SNELL TRIAL
Day and Night Sessions to Be
Held Until Jury Returns
Its Verdict
United States District Judge Robert
S. Bean has determined to hold day and
night sessions of his court until a ver
dict is returned in the trial of the
perjury charge against Charles P. Snell.
This announcement was made at the
conclusion of the hearing yesterday
afternoon.
George C- Hunt, former special agent
of the general land office, was called
to prove that Snell had misled the I
vestigators of the Perrin-Benson land
frauds, but he admitted that he had a
personal grievance against William J.
Burns, who«caused the trial of Perrin and
Benson; that he had secured the serv
ices of Attorney J. E. Harper, one of
the representatives of the Perrin in
terests, to make a complaint against
Burns In Arizona, and that he lost his
position with the government July 7.
Hunt had some lively tilts with Bert
Schleslnger, attorney for Snell, and it
seemed at times that they would come
to blows, but Judge Bean always inter
fered in time to prevent violence.
Doctor Perrin was recalled, i, to
identify letters and documents, and a
deputy sheriff identified papers taken
from Snell at the time of his afrest in
Arizona.
The prosecution introduced the affi
davit of Snell made in Arizona, it i
said, under luring inducements to ex
onerate Doctor Perrin.

VALLEJO FANS TO
BET ON WINGED V'S
New Year's Game With Cen
tury Expected to Wipe Out
This Week's Defeat
[Special Dispatch to The Call]
VALJ-EJO, Dec. 13. — Confident that
I they can defeat the Century squad of
Oakland on New Year's day, the
Winged V footballers held a rousing
meeting last evening to discuss their
plans for that game. At the meeting
it was announced that supporters of
the local squad intend to raise a purse
of $500 to wager on the game and that
this would be taken to the headquar
ters of the. Oakland aggregation next
week.
Since the struggle of last Sunday,
when the local squad met its first do
feat in six years, the consensus of
opinion is that if the eleven has any
idea of winning several changes will
have to be made. To this opinion the
players and Coach Goshen bowed last
evening.
Strict training will be observed from
now until New Year's day and signal
practice will be held each evening
until the last week before the struggle.
when those working will lay off and
do nothing but get in preparation for
the game. It was decided at last
j night's meeting to put Grant Wayson
jat halfback in the future instead of

Grows Hair
on Bald Heads
A Remedy That Costs Noth-
ing if It Fails to Do
as Claimed
Resorcin is one of the latest and most
effective germ killers discovered by
science, and in connection with Beta
Naphthol, also a powerful antiseptic, a
combination is formed which destroys
the germs which rob the hair of its
nutriment, and thus creates a clean and
healthy condition of the scalp, which
prevents the development of new
germs.
Pilocarpine is a well known agent
for restoring the hair to its natural
color where the loss of color has been
due to a disease. Yet it is not*a color-
ing matter or dye.
The famous Rexall "93" Hair Tonic
is chiefly composed of Resorcin, Beta
Naphthol and Pilocarpine. combined
with pure alcohol because of its
cleansing and antiseptic qualities. It
makes the scalp healthy, nourishes the
hair, revitalizes the roots, supplies
hair nourishment and stimulates a new
growth.
We want you to try a few bottles of
Rexall "03" Hair Tonic on our personal
guarantee that the trial will not cost
you a penny if it does not give you ab-
solute satisfaction. That's proof of our
faith in this remedy, and it should in-
disputably demonstrate that we know
what we are talking about when wa
say that Rexall "93" Hair Tonic will
grow hair on bald heads, except, of
course, where baldness has been of such
long duration that the roots of the hair
are entirely dead, the follicles closed
and grown over and the scalp is glazed.
Remember, we are basing our state-
ments upon what has already been ac-
complished by the use of Rexall "93"
Hair Tonic, and we have the right to
assume that what it has done for hun-
dreds of others It will do for you. Tn
any event, you can not lose anything by
giving it a trial on our liberal guar-
antee. Two sizes, 50 cents and $1. Re-
member, you can obtain Rexall reme-
dies in San Francisco only at The Owl
