HAYWARD DEFEATS CHRISTIE.

Kid Hayward defeated Billy Christie
in the fifth round of bout scheduled
to go six rounds. The fight was full of
action from start to finish. Christie had
no style. but he was game and terribly
in earnest. He rushed Hayward all over
the ring, and each had the other in
distress a number of lImes The bell
saved Christie at the end of the sec
ond round. but he came up fresh and
full of fight in the third. Hayward
caught him hard right on the head
in the third and nearly put him out
He repeated this in the fourth round
Christie had no defense in the fifth
round. and Hayward landed seven
straight rights to the Jaw Christie
went down twice. but he was game to
the core and was up as soon as he could
collect his scattered thoughts. The
spectators called on the referee to stop
1t. as a tragedy seemed imminent
Christies seconds finally threw up the
sponge and stopped the affair.

NELSON WOULD
TURN HUNTER
Battling Dane Urges His
Manager to Take Along
Gun While on the Road
Special Dispatch to The Call.


LARKsPUR. Aug. 25.-This afternoon
was very quiet one around the training
quarters of Battling Nelson, and this
evening the place is deserted by the
sporting fraternity. Bob Lundie, the
clever lightweight amateur of the Olym-
pic Club, who will fight in the Haw-
thorne Club in couple of days, decided
TO remain here instead of going to Colma
to see the Gardner-Ryan fight this even
ing. AT noon to-day, amid shower Of
rice and good wishes, Jimmy Gardner,
accompanied by his brother George, Joe
Angel, Charlie Nelson and Smiling Metz
ner, boarded the midday train for San
Francisco On a late train this afternoon
Battling Nelson. his manager, Billy No
Ian. and Australian Martin Murphy fol-
lowed Gardner and his party.
This morning Nelson did about six miles
Of road work. On his return Jog he met
Kid Decornc, one Of Kentfield's natives,
with a deer. 1t was a spike buck and
was still warm having been killed with
a shotgun a few minutes previous. Bat
ting looked at it admiringly and said to
Billy Nolan:
"Bill, don't you think we had better
carry shotgun or rifle with us? Yester-
day we could have secured a nice bag Of
quail out Of the several bevies which
few off the road between San Quentin
we may meet bear next"
Billy Nolan said: I'VE may be jugged,
as it is unlawful to shoot on the county
road"
Bat was willing to take the chances,
but Nolan could not see it that way, and
Battling and the party pjogged on. This
afternoon he began his outdoor work in
the new arena. There were about twenty
five spectators, some of whom were Of the
fair sex, who peered from windows fac
ing the arena and others from behind
watermelon crates during the entire per-
formance. Battling put in several min
utes shadow boxing and rope-skipping.
The medicine ball was rapidly and vigor-
ously exchanged with Lundie. They fol-
lowed with a one-round wrestling bout
Then came the event which had been
looked for the past week-a short four
round sparring bout. in which Lundie
and Battling exchanged many sharp
blows. Although the sun was glaring
strongly in his face, Battling did not
seem to pay any attention and went along
as though he were in real fight.
He remarked that he thought it would
be warmer, and he said that he felt
fresher after his outdoor work than when
he did half as much gymnasium work.
He did not go near the gymnasium to-
day. His lip is practically entirely healed
and he will box every afternoon during
his training here.

| No team in the league has any license
to take the Commuters down the line any
! more. They are playing ball good enough
, for anybody's league, and that old spirit
. of quitting does not show as 1t did few
! weeks ago. Yesterday, when the score
was two all in the ninth inning and two
slowed away, Doc Moskiman whisked
one through the pitchers box that gave
Kruger lots of time to scamper in from
third base.
1t was a pretty finish for game full of
incidents and. feats that are wont to
please the everyday fan. Kruger ushered
in the last inning for Oakland with a
double-cushion shot against the left ielc
fence. Kelly tried to advance him with
a sacrifice, but the. bunt was a bad one
and, Kruger was, held at second. Deve-
reaux advanced him on an out, but it re-
manned for Moskiman to dispatch the
telling hit. -
/ Oakland started off with a bunch of
two runs in the first inning. Van Haltren
led off with a safe one, and passed ball
aided him to second base. Dunleavy
swung through with a double, scoring
Van, and Kruger was there with a neat
single that let Dun slide in.
The rally looked right and every one
expected to see the Commuters send a
bunch through, but Kruger was caught
off first. After this disaster Kelly and
Devereaux lined out safe binglers, but
their efforts were of no avail, for nobody
was strong enough to bring them home.
The Siwashes did not figure as worthy
foes till the fourth, when Hart hit and
Frary drew pass. When Francks boot
ed Houtz's hit Hart arrived and Frary
pulled UP at the third corner. Runkle
chopped out an unexpected hit at this
juncture and tied up the score. After the
fourth spasm the Siwashes never could
squeeze another man through, although
they managed to get to Hogan for hit
in every inning.
Kruger was the real batting kid for the
day, getting a single, double and triple.
Van Haltren was there with three sin
giles. Kelly broke the Pacific Coast rec
ord for second basemen by finishing yes
terday's game without making an error.
Kelly has now played thirty-three games
and has yet to fall down on chance.
The score:

They spared for a few seconds and then
clinched. Ryan full tilt into straight left
and they clinched Gardner landed twice
low. Ryans seconds claimed FOUL but no at
tention paid tr them. The men went at
IL again. each doing some clever blocking
Ryan shifted with right to the jaw and drove
Gardner across the ring, failing, however, to
land telling blows. Ryan again rushed, but
the Massachusetts, lad again displayed his
clever work. Gardner hit Ryan low and the
ring crowded with Ryan's seconds yelling
like mad Gardner went at Ryan like ma
MAC, sending him to the floor with right and
left to the jaw and terrific left to the body.
Ryans seconds threw up the SPONGE 1t be-
ing clearly evident that Ryan could not con-
tinue. Gardner had landed two blows ap-
parently very low and Ryan sank to the floor
covering his lower limbs up with his hands
and evidently in great pain. Ryan was foored
twice again as he tried to arise and the gong
rang at this stage. Pandemonium reigned and
in a moment the ring was filled with an ex-
cited mob Referee Roche then declared Card
the winner but called all bets off, saying

where he lay prone, and his seconds worked
over him desperately in an effort to resuscitate
him. He was then carried from the ring.
