POWELL TO FACE
SEVERE TEST IN
THE RING
By r. a. Sr11yth

The admirers of Lew Powell. the
boxer. viii be surprised If he does not
make q showing at Colma tonight
which viii stamp him as one of the
cleVerest light weights developed in
California He meets Cyclone Thomp-
son in twenty-round fight and will
get as severe test as can BE given
an aspiring boxer. Powell stands out
as the best of the four-round fighters
and if he makes good in this match
be viii be in line for big game in. his
class.
His first professional engagement
was with Willie Wolff and it proved a
sensational affair. Powell had just re-
covered from q severe illness, but he
fought like a seasoned veteran Of the
ring. He won so impressively that it
was evident he had all the qualifica-
tions Of a great fighter.
In Thompson he will meet a trial
horse who viii bring out any weak
spot he may have The Eastern man
is the rushing type Of fighter and he
never stops boring in on an opponent
He has shown himself capable of as
similating a lot of punishment and he
is game TO a marked degree His last
two fights were with Dick Hyland. The
first of these he won on a foul and in
the second he gave Hyiand one of the
hardest fights in his career. These
performances are sufficient recommen-
dation 10 make the followers of the
ring in this city take an interest in
his first appearance here.
Thompson likes to do his lighting at
close range. while the Californian likes
TO stand of and pick an opponent to
pieces. He is clever in jabbing with
his left and can also use an uppercut
effectively. While Powell hits like a
welter-weight he has his work cut out
for him TO stop Thompson The latter
claims that IN 80 fights he has never
been knocked out.

.CALHOUNS ULTIMATUM

To the Editor of The Call:
1t is noted that San Francisco has had
thrown at her an ''ultimatum" by Presi-
dent Calhoun of the United Railroads
This presupposes a crisis in San Francis
co.'s development appertaining to her sys-
tenn of street railway service. The ar
rival of crisis calls for a great man to
meet 1t and turn 1t to use for the promo
ton and advancement of the good cause
threatened with retarding by such crisis.
San Francisco is fortunate in having such
a man in Claus Spreckels. Throwing an
"ultimatum'' is a game at which two may
play, as President Calhoun now knows.
In effect the ultimatum thrown by Mr..
Spreckels at President Calhoun is, Come
off your trolley. or you'll be shaken off. -
And to this all well wishers for fair San
Francisco's development and advance
ment on lines of up-to-date betterment
say, "Hurrah for Mr.. Spreckels!'
For San Francisco's good it is to be
hoped that President Calhoun will abide
by his ultimatum given to the city. that
Mr.. Spreckels may abide by his ultima
tum given to President Calhoun.
San Francisco is to be congratulated
that her greatest business man has so
valiantly come to her defense against
President Calhoun, who evinces a predi-
lection for throwing at her with reckless
abandon his ''ultimatum.'' With the shield
of public spirit aggressiveness Mr.. Spreck-
els has turned President Calhoun's ulti-
matum and. like a boomerang, sent it
hurtling back upon him who daringly
threw it. purposing to mar the comeliness
and beauty of San Francisco.
