RYAN ON THE CARPET
Noted Turfman Ordered to Ap-

ards and Explain Himself.

New York, oct. 1O.-John J. Ryan,
formerly of ST. Louis, known as a
heavy operator on the turf, has been
summoned to appear before the stew
ards of the Jockey club to be ques-
tened. it is saiG, regarding his stand
ing in view Of the fact that he was
ruled off by the officials Of the Fort
Erie Jockey club for an alleged infrac-
ton Of turf regulations five years ago.
Ryan was on hand at the appointed
hour, but a quorum of the stewards
was lacking and the matter was post
pOned
Ryan had been out Of the city for
several days and was notified to appear
when he returned to the betting ring
He is said to have an interest in three
books nov operating at Norris park.
Ryan declares he knows absolutely
nothing about the ringing" case in
connection with which he was ruled
off at Fort Erie. and that he refused
at that time TO 90 beyond Buffalo to
defend himself. For that reason he
says action was taken against him. He
is quoted as saying he will not submit
quietly to any measures barring him
from the betting ring because the
Jockey club stands committed to the
attitude Of ignorance that betting on
the races exists.

ON OLD BOB
Conqueror of Jack Root Tells
How He Expects to Defeat
Robert the Red.

Chicago. oct 10.-When he says he viii
defeat Robert FitzsimmOns, George Gard
ner looks you squarely in the eye, feels
his muscle and asks you why old BOD
should be given the preference over MIN.
Gardner is In deadly earnest The flash
of his eye tells YOU that; and the way he
speaks of Fitz shows that the name Of
the COnQueror Of Corbett has no terrors
for him.
When you ask George how he will train,
crafty look steals over his 1ace-he
wants to ten, but he doesn't want the old
,man TO give up all hope and quit before
the bell calls them TO the center.
lis it speed you are looking tor2'
Gardner was asked.
well. I have speed to burn. but a man
can't have too much So L shall sidestep
some with my spaTring partners, Jimmy
Barry and Alec Greggains, when 1 get
out to the coast Gardner replied.
An observer looking Gardner over and
noting his strong points is inclined to eN-
claim. That's lustthe build of a man to
put Bob away.
Gardner is big above the waist. like
Fitz. Gardner IS build sIenderlv below
the waist like FitZ. Massive shoulders.
q tremendous reach and pile-driving hit
ting power combine 70 complete the SIM
llarity.
In all his fights Gardner has gone to his
man and fought without a let-up.
1t is likely that he will change his tao
tics sOmeWhatAWhen he steps in the ring
with the Cornishman. In Fitz he will
meet man who is above all crafty Fitz
possesses ring generalshiD in greater de-
gree than most Of the lights of the pu-
gilistic armament
Should Gardner ivy to carry the fight to
him titz would be perfectly satisfied.
But We're George to stay away. cleverly
avoiding the rushes Of The Antipodean
and cut him TO pieces as he did Jack Root
il would be an easy matter TO finish the
fight with knockout. Gardner saws so
himself and will doubtless train i'm the
hit and get away style Of Jim COrbett.
Whether he win 60 in for Corbett's
muscle building fads is another matter.
Gardner believes in standin. up and fight
ing when he is training and looks with
disfavor on the physical culture STYLE of
getting into condition.
Road work to develop his wind. shadow
work to develop mis- footwork and boxing
with his trainers to develop the necessary
ggressiveness-Shese methods will nut
him into condition to face Robert Fitz-
simmons in the ring of the Yosemite Ath-
letic club.

CREDIT DUE DELANEY
To His Careful Training James J,
Jeffries Owes His Title of
Worlds Champion.

Credit is due Billy Delaney for the man
ner IN which he has brought Jeffries TO
the top of the ladder in the pugilistic
world Delaney took up Jeffries when
the latter was mere novice and by slow
but sure stages he has rounded the big
fellow into the greatest fighter in the
history Of the ring Delaney knows eX-
actly how 10 handle Jeffries and prob
ably no other trainer living could have
accomplished the same results
When Jeff was training for COrbett for
their fight last month it was Delaney
who insisted that he dispense with heavy
road work in his preparation for the
bout. Jeffries is a gluttOn for work in
training, and if he had been left to his
own wishes he would have weakened HIM
self in violent road exercises. But he has
every confidence in Delaneys ability
and when the trainer advised him to de-
vote more time to gymnasium work In
which he could acquire speed, he acqui-
esced, with the result that he put up
one of the best fights in his career
against COrbett. Now JEFF is the great
est of all champions and his success IN
a large part IS due to the advice from
the greatest of all trainers. Billy Delaney.

Sam McVey. the Oxnard, Cal, heavy
weight TO take up the cudgel against
jeff. says George Siler. Sam was the
man mostly considered after the recent
championship battle as a worthy oppo-
nent for the big fellow. but his color was
against him. Jeff had his heart set on
trimmings Munroe, and so anxious was he
TO get him i'm the ring with him he, in a
heat of passion. offered him $4,000 If ne
failed to stop him within a certain num-
ber of rounds. Jack. however. would
have none Of him under any conditions,
and as jeff has defeated all the white
heavyweights that had championship 3s-
piratiOls, IL appears as if he win have TO
fight a colOrcd man or retire. In speak
ing of the matter several days ago the
champion said he drew the color line be-
cause America would not stand for a coll
ored heavyweight champion. He did not
mean to infer the McVey. Johnson or
Griffin, the leading colOred heavyweights
of this country, could or would take his
measure should he elect 10 take any of
them on. but he meant he would not give
them the opportunity Of carrying off the
title
''He admits he fought negroes before
he became monarch of the big fellows,
but states that he at that time had no
reputation to lose. Neither was the pub
lie in general so deeply interested in his
welfare as OF present"

Logan, Oct. 1O.-The Agricultural coll
lege football team defeated the Salt
Lake High School eleven this afternoon
by a score Of 10 to 0. This visitors were
hOpelessly Outciassed. They were over
weighted in the line twenty pounds
per man, but there was not a great
deal of difference in the back field as
10 weight. From start to finish il was
al Agricultural college. the visitors
never having a look in. Once they
made nearly a yard through the Aprf-
cultural college line and that was the
only gain they made in the game NO
matter what they tried in runs or line
plays they We're thrown for a loss but
they stuck 10 their knitting and fought
gamely TO the last.
The Agricultural college would have
made the score higher if they had
stayed with end running but they
kept ramming their men through the
line and We're never held for downs
They tUmbled considerably but alto
gether played a so per cent better game
than last Saturday. Two touchdowns
were made I'm the first half. Adams
failed 70 kick goals. but was deprived
of a chance to kick one through the
error Of the referee. In the last half
the Agricultural college tried some Of
its subs.
Madsen kicked off to the high school
and sent the ball behind the line. The
high school took IL out TO the twenty
five-yard line and kicked of. Agricul-
tUral college took. the ball back to the
center and fumbled, regained posses
sion of the bah and carried it over the
line after nine minutes play. Madsen
kicked behind the opponents line again
and the ball was brought out again 20
the tWenty-fve-yaTd line and kicked
off by Salt Lake. The Aggies fumbled
but they compelled the visitors to kick
and blocked the ban and then went
straight down the field for a touch
down.
The Aggies had the ball on their op-
pOnents' twenty-yard line when the
half ended. There was much fumbling
in the .ast half. but the Agricultural
college finally pushed the ball over for
a touchdown and had the ball within
four yards of the enemy's goal when
the half ended.
