DECLARES NELSON
AND CANS MUST
FIGHT AGAIN.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

NEW YORK, Oct. THE Gans-Nel-
son fight pictures were shown in this
city for the first time tonight at the
New York Theater roof garden. Fully
1000 persons witnessed the exhibition,
among whom were about 100 women.
The first twenty rounds show Cans
completely outhghting Nelson, but the
Battler is always coming for more.
Then the last six rounds are shown,
and although the men are going much
slower, Nelson is still the aggressor.
After the exhibition Joe Humphries,
manager of Terry McGovern, said:
These pictures show two things: One
is that Siler certainly saw the blow
that ended the fight, and the other is
that the only way in which these men
can forever settle the supremacy be-
tween them is to fight another battle.
From the pictures the final blow looks
as fair as it does foul. Nelson is shown
In a clinch trying TO land on the stom-
ach, and from my point of view it does
not look as II he Intentionally fouled
Cans, if he fouled him at all.
People go to see these pictures with
the idea that they are going to see
Nelson all in hanging listlessly on to
Cans and wildly endeayoring to land a
foul They go away unsatisfied, for
Nelson shows strong to the last.
don't deny that Nelson fought foul, but
that is Nelson's peculiar style"
The San Francisco call., 1906-10-08
JOE THOMAS HERE
FOR STRENUOUS
CAMPAIGN.

Joe Thomas, the clever Californian
welter-weight boxer. was about the
city yesterday renewing old acquaint-
ances and looking none the worse for
his strenuous campaign in the ring in
the East. Under the management OF
Harry Foley he had a successful trip
financially. a number of his bouts pay
ing him well.
His bout with Honey Melody drew
$3.50 and he received 20 per cent Of
the lighters share. He received $500
for six-round fight with Harry Lewis
at Philadelphia a week ago Saturday
night. Lewis is considered the best
man in his class by some Eastern au-
thorities. He caught Thomas unawares
as they We're shaking hands and
knocked him down. The Californian
was up in an instant and what he did
not do to Lewis is not worth talking
about.
Thomas is said TO be the only boxer
now before the public who fights in the
old style which Mike Donovan and 9TH
ers found so effective. He will be a
busy boxer if he fills all the engage
ments mapped out for him this winter.
Dick Hyland has settled down in
training quarters at Joe Millitt's, neaI
Colma, for his fight next Friday night
with Cyclone Thompson. The latter
will train at Golden Gate, suburb Of
Oakland.

DOLPHINS HOLD /
JOLLIFICATION
AND RACES.

The members of the Dolphin Rowing
Club had pleasant time yesterday en-
tertaining their lady friends. From
1890 in the morning to in the after
noon the boathouse at the foot of Van
Ness avenue was crowded, AMI all those
who attended the Dolphin joilification
pronounced il the most interesting af-
fair ever held by this we'll known row.
ing association.
Before any of the athletic events
were held the Dolphins sent their
launch over to pick up as many South
End and Ariel members as possible
Two crews from the former and one
from the latter, as well as several
swimmers, were secured. They added
materially toward entertaining the
fair guests of the club.
The first two events of the day were
Junior skiff races between A. Bertrand
and S. Vicini and Buddy" Rolls and a
Schiaroni. Bertrand in the first event
and Rolls in the second proved the
fastest men, but the margin in either
case was not more than a boats
length.
The barge races proved even closer
The South End crew, composed of H.
Schreiber. stroke; e. Knottner, after
waist; c. Mott. forward waist, and f.
bergman, DOW, was DeateQ Dy the DOL
phin four, composed of McKevitt
stroke A Mohr, after waist; G. Thur
man, forward-waist, and A. Bertrand,
bow.
Both crews rowed neck and neck un-
til the stakeboat was reached. The
Dolphins, however, proved faster on
the turn, which gave them a lead their
guests were not able to overcome
The senior barge race was won by a,
Dolphin crew made up of Will Harris,
stroke; Tom Harris, after-waist; Leo
Winand, forward-waist, and S. vicini
bow. The Ariel crew consisted of Will
son, stroke; Kalmback, after-waist;
Pollok, forward-waist, and Denver, bow.
The 100-yard swim was won handily
by Schultz of the Dolphins, while Otto
Wallhsch and Eugene Breasnean of the
South End Club tied for second place.
Diving with old clothes kept the
spectators amused for some time.
Those who participated in this event
were Schultz. A Bertrand, B. H Harris
and B. Berthald.
During the day refreshments, music
and dancing were much in evidence.
Next Sunday the Ariel Rowing Club
will give a clambake at Hunters Point.
Invitations have been issued to the va
rious rowing associations about the
