AS the time for the big Melody
Peterson fight draws near lovers
OF the game are flocking to the
S. A. A. G. to watch the two men
work out. Yesterday Melody box
ed four rounds with his sparring
partners and will do the same to-
day. Peterson went to Occur
d'Alene lake for a row.
Peterson has risen in the estima-
ton of the fight lovers till the bet
ting on the two boys is about
even.
Peterson fought with Buddy
Ryan for IS rounds before he was
whipped. Melody has been whipped
three times by Ryan, but the truth
Of the three fights is not known
by the general public. The longest
fight the two men had was six
rounds. The referee gave the de-
cision to Ryan and the papers
spoke of it as a stel. When Ryan
won in the five-round go he did
not put the Boston boy out, but
won on foul. 1t was claimed Mel
lody did not foul. The fight when
Melody lost in the first was a
knockout. The bell sounded for
the fight to begin and Melody was
hardly on his feet when Ryan hit
him, winning. 1t is claimed Mel
lody did not hear the bell at all.
From all reports neither Melody
or Peterson will have to ever go
against Buddy Ryan to win the
championship and one Johnnie Reid
is to blame for Ryan being out of
business. In the recent fight with
Ryan, Reid kept punching at the
eye. Ryan has been walking around
for some time with the eye ban
daged up and has just found out
it will never be any good again.
Ryan is trying to drown his sor-
rows.

NOLAN VS.. BRITT

of the sweet smelling bouquets
they handed each other:

Amy man who will purposely lay
down to niger, as Jimmy Britt
did to Joe Cans in that memorable
fake last year in California, is
enough to sicken any man with
good sporting blood in his veins.
Why did Mr.. Britt accept $4,000
of a 1000 purse when he lost to
Cans on foul" if there was not
a prearranged affair? On that oc-
casion Britt threw down boys who
were raised with him and who
went to school with HMM fact.
he gave the double cross to all of
his friends so that he might make
money out of the betting. He de-
liberately hit Cans three times,
when Cans was on his knees, to
foul Cans and give Cans the 'decis
ion. If that isn't crookedness in
sport would like to have that ex-
preston defined for me by Mr..
Britt. How the square sporting
public pricked up it's ears and OPEN

ter this battle Mr.. Britt pur-

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 23.-The
contest between AL Kaufman and
philadelphia" Jack O'Brien, which
will take place before Alex Greg.
gains club on the 9th inst, is
attra citing much attention all along
the coast. The match means much
to the young Olympian and if he
can succeed in landing the wallop
he handed out to Harry Foley and
the few amateurs he has defeated,
he will Immediately be looked upon
as serious proposition in the
heavyweight class and will then,
no doubt, be matched with either
Bob Fitzsimmons or Marvin Hart.
Kaufman's better chances for vic
tory in the coming contest which
means everything to him, lie in an
aggressive, fast fight; he will show
to better advantage at this style
of milling, and has a much better
chance of winning than if he fol
lows "clever" course and at
tempts to outlook the shifty Phila-
delphian. O'Brien is a speed mar
vel, perhaps the fastest boxer of
his time, and will find it an easy
matter to outpoint the hard-hitting
local heavyweight if the fight
should resolve itself into a boxing
match. Billy Delaney understands
pretty well O'Brien's best points
of the game and it is not likely
that he will permit Kaufman to
fight him any other way than step
ping in and crowding Jack with a
hope of landing one of those hard
ticks Al is known to carry in either
glove.
Another question that is bother
ing the dOpesters is: Will Kauf-
man be able to go the route with
out firing to such a degree that he
would be found at the mercy of
O'Brien after he had gone a dozen
rounds or more at fairly fast clip?
Al has never been called upon to
go one full round in any of the con-
tests in which he has figured and
as yet it is matter of conjecture
just to what distance he can travel
at a good gait and still be in pos
session of his fighting strength.
O'Brien can go 90 rounds nicely
and if the local favorite can do the
same, his chances of winning are
much better than most people
imagine.
The men have ample time to pre-
pare themselves carefully for the
encounter and it is safe to say both

viii 1t End in Words?
Inc Wordy war between the two
crack lightweights, Mide (Twin)
Sullivan and Jimmy Gardner,
should be productive of a good
match for next month. Sullivan
came all the way from Cambridge.
Mass, publicly to challenge Jimmy
for fight. He Immediately posted
$500 to show his good faith in the
matter, and said he was willing to
let the money go as a side bet if
Gardner wished it. Jimmy made no
reply to the def and at this time
has not covered the money. Now

says Gardner is afraid of him, calls

him at any time; that he wilkleave
the coast without signing any ar
ticles and that he will not return
here until he (Sullivan) has left.
Gardner says he will box Sulli-
van in November and Sullivan
wants to pin Jimmy to his word
by having a set of articles signed
and a forfeit posted to guarantee
that he means business and it is
very likely that the Lowell boxer
will do this. 1t seems a pity that
two good men like this can not get
together and make a match without
so much stalling and loud talking.
Gardner is an excellent fighter and
well liked here. Sullivan is equally
as well though of since his defeat
Of Joe Cans and it is hardly prob
able that Gardner would permit
himself to be ridiculed in the eyes
of the public by allowing Sullivan
to get away without a call. This
would injure his standing pugilisti-
cally more than anything he could
do.
Revival of Amateur Boxing.
Amateur boxing will take a new
lease of life this winter and all the
old-time amateur favorites will
come out of the pasture and get
into condition for busy season.
With the Hawthorne, the Occiden-
tai and the Olympic clubs now rum
ming and with the San Francisco
and Hayes Valley clubs again at it,
a fight week will result and it is
a safe bet that these amateur shows
will fall in for the same good
patronage they enjoyed last season
1t has been said the supervisors
are agreeable to allowing the Hayes
Valley and San Francisco clubs to
handle shows the same as formerly
since the Amateur association re-
fuses to allow the privileges of the
association. The amateur clubs
now running as members of the
association and sanctioned by the
association are conducted on the
same lines as all the amateur clubs
were last season and since this is
the case it is only fair that the
other clubs should be permitted
to run as well.
