scHREcK TRAINS VIGOROUSLY
Experiences Difficulty In Making
Weight, but Expects to Be Under
the Limit bY tuesday

A left swing coming out Of a very
pronounced crouch and a little riVulet
of the red trickled down Johnny Ho-
gan's face as Mike Schreck landed an
unexpected jab on his sparring part
ner's head during a workout at North
Beach, Santa Monica, yesterday after
noon.
The way Schreck and Hogan went at
each other was a caution, and the
rough work came near putting an In
terested spectator out for the count.
The men were mixing 1t in a corner
and a right from somebody's fighting
arm caught the unlucky onlooker
amldships. He woke up ina moment
and the show went merrily on.
Schreck is probably the most awk-
ward appearing fighter who has dom
ned a glove in Los Angeles but with
all his awkwardness he Is clever and
has made more than one fancy boxer
look like an amateur.
At the word of his manager, Billy
Hogan, he fought into a crouch yester-
day Afternoon and from the exhibition
he appeared capable of fighting from
the floor If need be.
Johnny Hogan, sparring partner is
probably responsible for a good part
of the showing which Schreck has made
since entering the ring, and yesterday
afternoon proved that he can give and
take with the next one. He has q typ
ical fighting build and the setto was
as good as many an event billed for
a pugilistic attraction. One minute
Mike would fight from an erect position
ducking the vicious swings of Hogan,
and the next moment he would fall
into crouch that brought his long
body on parallel with the floor. When
doubled up, Mike is inclined to favor
an overland swing that yesterday
landed with sufficient force to stagger
Hogan.
The timekeeper allowed the rounds
to extend anywhere from five to fif-
teen minutes, but both boxers were at
1t hammer and tongs when the end
of the fourth round was called
The go with the gloves rollowed ten
hard rounds at the bag, during which
time Schreck twice sent the ball sail
ing from its moorings to the further
most corners of the gymnasium.
The clubs and dumb bells, followed
by dip in the briny, ended the days
work. In the morning Schreck and Ho-
gan were on the road for eight miles.
Schreck Is having difficulty in maxi
ing the weight, and yesterday weighed
near to ITO pounds. Thursdays work
took off only half a pound and from
the Germans appearance it is evident
that he must do some grlling to be
able to tip the scales within the $500
mark Tuesday.
Manager Billy Hogan said yesterday
that Schreck had never before ex-
pertenced difficulty in making weight
and expressed himself as having little
doubt that his man would be ready
for the weighing in.

INDIANS COME
TO PLAY j. S. c.
HEMPEL'S BRAVES IN PRIME
CONDITION
University Eleven Is Handicapped by
Extraordinary Hospital List,
but Are Confident Of
Winning

Coach Hempel and his Indian eleven
arrived from the north yesterday morn
ing and registered at the Hollenbeck
hotel. They will play against the
eleven of the University of California
at Fiesta park this afternoon.
Interest is centered in today's con-
test mainly by reason of the fact that
the university men are to show
whether their play against Occidental
was below what they are capable OF,
barring hukes and poor physical con-
dition.
u. s. c. is yet suffering from the eff
fects of the Stanford game and to-
days lineup will find Chester Haigler,
the right half, out of the game as
a result of broken rib, broken nose
and a sprained ankle. Shute Is out with
a bruised leg and cannot play
The others of the team are in the best
of condition and yesterday completed
training for this afternoons game,
going through secret practice in the
gymnasium.
Jack White, who played fast game
against the Occidental men when he
entered that contest, will be at left,
Burek being at right, and Ochoa at
full. The lineup in general presents
a changed appearance and Coach
Holmes has several new men on the
line
According to Coach Hempel the In
dians are in good playing condition.
although somewhat tired as a result
of their long "trip in the nortn. Hemp
Ell says that the Multnomah game was
the best exhibition of football ever put
up by the Indians. The Multnomah
line outweighed the redskins, with for
wards averaging two hundred pounds.
The defense shown in the Stanford
game has been greatly improved and
they score on the Riversiders. To-
days lineup will show many changes
for the Indian eleven. but Hempel be-
lieves he has the right men in the
right place.
The braves will face the college
players with the same lineup that
tied the Multnomah team. Lugo, who
played half in the Stanford contest,
is back at left tackle and Schoulder
has been switched from end to tackle.
Phull Wiler, a sub guard of last year.
is at right half.
The Indians went through secret prac-
tice at Fiesta park yesterday after
noon and, after a general talk from
the coach in the evening, retired at
s o'clock.
Coach Hamilton of the Harvard Mil
itary school eleven will referee today's
game and Traeger will umpire. Hauv-

HIGH TO PLAY POLYTECHNIC
Throop Eleven and Academies Meet
at Pasadena and Exciting Struggle
Is Anticipated

The Los Angeles high school team
and the Throop Polytechnic eleven will
meet at Tournament park, Pasadena,
this afternoon and some hard football
is anticipated, as both elevens are pre-
pairing to run the largest score pos
sible.
The local men assert that they are
being avoided by Southern California
high school teams and as Throop is the
only eleven in sight at the present
time, they are desirous of making a
record in the scoring line.
All of the high school contests thus
far have been against college elevens
with the exception of one or two prac-

MIKE TWIN SULLIVAN
DEFEATS JIMMY GARDNER
FIERCE BATTLE TAKES PLACE AT
SAN FRANCISCO
Cambridge Lad Gets Decision at End
OF Twentieth Round-Consdere
One of the Best Seen in Northern
City for Many Months
BY Associated Press.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 24.-After
twenty rounds of probably the most
sensational fighting seen in this city
for long time, Mike Twin" Sullivan
of Cambridge, Mass, tonight defeated
Jimmy Gardner of Lowell, Mass, Ref
cree Jack Welch making the decision
while Gardner was carried weak and
tottering to his corner. The decision
was a popular one, not only on it's
merits, but because it also brought Joy
to the short -enders, who generally OBJ
tained odds of to 1.
The fight contained all of the ele-
ments that go to make up a high-clas
exhibition of it's kind. 1t was full of
skillful boxing and footwork, hard
punching and well directed efforts.
Gardner made the more fancifuI
showing, particularly in the earlier half
of the match, but Sullivan never for d
moment lost his GOODNESS and never
missed sight of an opportunity to gain
a point.
In the second ten rounds of the bout
the actual fighting was done. Long
range blows that shook and Jared
were delivered by each of the contest
ants and the mitigating was at times
particularly fierce.
Sullivan Fought Consistently
found that he could reach Gardner s
face and with his left glove soon had
the Lowell boys face a mass of blood
from a bruised nose and a nasty cash
over one of the ears. Up to the eight
eenth round 1t was generally conceded
to be an even thing, but then Sullivan s
superior strength and faculty of re-
cuperating quickly turned the tide in
Sullivan's favor and he sent blow after

boy fought gamely enough, but his
strength had been fought out of him
and he was all but verging on collapse
when the bell sounded the end of the
battle.
The men fought at catch weights and
appeared in the ring at about 142
pounds. Although about evenly
matched as to weight Sullivan had an
advantage in reach and 1t served him
we'll when Gardner, made desperate
and anxious. forgot to cover up with
his customary cleverness.
After the contest. Gardner had this
to say:
"I went out of my class to fight Sui
livan, who weighs about s pounds
more than ! do. 1 would like to fight
him again for the same side wager,
1856 pounds.

"Referee Welch's decision. however.
was a just one as under the conditions
mentioned was clearly beaten"
In the las round they fought at
close quarters, Sullivan battering
Gardner with right and left to the jaw.
Gardner tried hard to get In a vital
blow but Sullivan was too shifty and
kept him at his distance. Sullivan
landed left to the face and Sullivan
put right and left to the head. Gard
ner hung on a bit In the clinches and
a straight left to the face sent him
back toward the ropes. They went in
close, and were parted by the referee
Gardner slipped to his knees and when
he got up he was made groggy by a
terrific right on the jaw. Gardner APP
peared contented to cllnch to save
himself. Sullivan then forced his man
into a corner and Gardner was grog-
gy as the bell rang.

DINNER TO FI$EMEN.
Joseph Totten Treated the Old Vol

The paid fire department. is now
thoroughly established in Ahis Dor

is going along nicely.
Inspectors for the fire alarm sys-
tenn were in town yesterday and they
started in to make a number, of i'm
provements to the entire system.
1t will take some little time, but
when the job has been finished the
system will be the best in any of the
boroughs.
The volunteer firemen in Totem

from the sale of the houses and APP
paratus to the city has been equally
divided among the members. JOS
eph Totten, a former resident of Tot

them a big dinner at Streeter's Hotel,

THE FIRST ALARM.
Paid Fire Department Get Out in
Quick Time for a Barn.

The residents of T~ottenville, who
were out last night attending the
meeting of the Democratic Club, had
a chance 10 see the paid fire depart
ment do it's first work in this town,
and if any of the old veteran tiremen
had a feeling of bitterness against
the new men it has now entirely dis
appeared, for the regulars proved
their skill.
1t was about 10 o'clock when the
firemen at the houses of the engine
and truck company were aroused.
The terra Gotta whistle does not
blow in case of fire any more and the
only way the people of the town can
tell that a fire has broken out is
when they see the firemen go by.
The alarm had been sounded from
box 35 and when the firemen ar
rived on the scene they discovered
that an old barn belonging to Bent
ley Manor estate was in flames.
The firemen walked right into the
building, which was blazing ~fiercely,
and had it out in short order.
1t is not known what caused the
fire, but it is thought that some one
wanted to see the new department
work. They were no doubt satisfied
that the department could do its
duty, for on all sides were heard
words of praise when the blaze was
out and the regulars had started for
home.
