THOMPSO AND
HYLAND DRAW
LlGHTWEIGHTS BATTLE FOR
TWENTY ROUNDS
Sycamore Boy Weakened by Weiaht
Making, but Forces Contest
After the Initial
Period
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 26.-Weak-
ened by his effort to make the weight,
cyclone Thompson scored a draw in
his twenty-round go with Dick Hyland
tonight. The decision was popular and
any other would have been unfair
Thompson had to strip to the last
stitch to make the weight and was evil
IDENTIFY weak. His blows lacked steam
and he could not keep his footing firm
in the rushes of Hyland, as he was
weak on his legs
The first two rounds were slow and
tame. Hyland then waded into the
Illinois lad, and until the sixth round
had things pretty much his own way,
landing repeatedly on the body
Thompson frequently resorted to
clinches to avoid punishment. In the
seventh Thompson began his work and
was very aggressive for the remainder
of the fight, but lacked the strength to
make his blows damaging.
From this to the end it was hammer
and tongs, give and take. Hyland
landed the cleverer blows but could do
no damage. Thompson, was always
coming and nearly every rush ended in
a clinch. At the end Thompson was
red around the kidneys but showed no
other marks, while Hyland had a
badly cut mouth.

COMES
TO LEARN GAME
Northerners Given Reception at the
Chamber of Commerce-Say They
Want to Know How Los
Angeles Boosts

Boosters from Seattle who have come
to Los Angeles with their wives to
learn the art of advertising were guests
of honor at a reception given last night
by the chamber of commerce.
IF there is place in the United
States where a man can learn to adver-
tise-if there is a place where the peo-
pie know how to tell the world about
what they have got it is right here, and
we have come to sit at the feet Of
wisdom and CLEAN knowledge" said
Herbert Cuthbert, secretary of the
Tourists association of Victoria, B. c..
Mr.. Cuthbert was one of the speakers
Of the evening, and he gave the Alaska
Yukon-Pacihc Coast exposition boost,
declaring that the entire state should
unite in making it a success and
commencing the message of the COVER
nor of California recommending the
appropriation of 100000 to the exposi-
ton.
John G. Mott extended the welcome
for Los Angeles and paid the visitors
some pretty compliments.
Judge Waldo M. York, who was for
merly of Seattle and has many friends
in the delegation, predicted great things
for Seattle, going as far as to say that
some day, perhaps several hundred
years from now, Seattle will be the
| commercial center of the world, or If
not Seattle some other point on the
Puget Sound. The judge evened things
up a little by saying that it is his be-
lief that at similar time Southern
California may be the most thickly
populated part of the world.
T. Wright Robinson talked climate
not Los Angeles climate, but Seattle
climate. He told the story of Mark
Twains remark when he received WORD
of his own death.
There may be some foundation IN
fact, but do not think 1t is altogether
true" said Mark Twain, and that il

SAVES JACK
PALMER In NINTH

only thing he could successfully accom-
phsh. The Englishman looked all but
out as he staggered to his corner. In
the sixth he fell down as a result Of his
own wildness, but came up again and
managed to stall out the round.
Such n business as occurred In the
seventh when Palmer went down three
times from jarring blows which lacked
the knockout steam. About the middle
Of the round Twin ripped a left to the
stomach and Palmer went down for the
count of nine. AS he came up Sullivan
sent right to the head and Palmer
dropped for eight He arose slowly
only to go down again The gong
changed as Eyton tolled eight.
Some were crying for a stoppage Of
the affair when poor Palmer staggered
to his corner. He was a sorry sight
and IL seemed a pity to send him back
for more. But no one said nay and
back he came.
Twin staggered him with a left to tho
face and a moment later sent him down
for the count of eight. There was no
sport when Palmer arose. He wobbled
and fell again, this time from sheer
weakness. once more the gong saved
him at the count of eight.
1t was readily to be seen that Pal
neT could not last another round and
ninth a hard right to the head result
ed in the towel coming in.
Palmer will not do in the American
ring. He was outclassed last night and
, the bout had no ring of sport with
the exception of the Englishmans
gameness.
Leonard Lauder and Kid Barry fur
niShed the fastest battle witnessed at
Maud Junction in many a day when
they Clashed for the six-round pre-
liminary. The fight proved a ham
tner and tongs affair from first to
last, though Lauder exhibited great
cleverness.
He clearly outpointed Barry, but the
latter showed strongly and suffered no
damage because of the strenuous 60
ing. Referee Walsh rendered a popu-
lar draw decision.
Frank Fields and Kenny Woods gave
weird exhibition which went to
Woods on foul in the tenth. Fields
was the cleverer, but grew weak and
could do nothing with his man. When
Frank came up for the tenth he swung
like a wild man and fouled Woods
twice.
Walsh called a halt after the sec
and foul and tried to send Fields to
his corner. The latter refused to go
and struck at Walsh.
Police jumped in and sent Fields to
his corner, where he was roundly and
deservedly hissed for his contemplate
work.
Tommy Burns, who reached Los An
geles on a late train, appeared at the
ringside and crawled between the
ropes In answer to a general demand
Los Angeles herald., 1907-03-27

Jack Sullivan sent word to the as
semblage at Maud Junction last night
that he WOULD be pleased to have Jack
Palmer accorded every courtesy. This
occurred before Mr. Sullivan entered
the ring
Within thirty minutes from the time
Of his friendly message Twin had
knocked down the aforesaid Palmer
no less than five times finally send
ing him to the floor in the ninth round,
when Manager Jimmy Loves skipped
through the ropes with q towel swing
ing on high.
As little crowd filed from the Dress
ing section after a last preliminary
everyone craned their necks to catch
a glimpse of the Britisher One thing
is certain. Jack Palmer cannot return
to the tight little isle and say that he
was not given genuine Yankee
send-off.
The ovation rendered Palmer last
night evidenced that no one wished
him aught but good luck, and his de-
feat is due to no fault of the ringside
crowd.
1t was the same old story. however,
of bringing a dark horse to beat n
well seasoned, clever boxer who has a
peculiar habit of being around when
twenty rounds come to an end. But
"Twin" Sullivan was up against an
easy game last night and had the time
of his life. The Irishman continually
rallied his opponent and jollied along
when he might have been working
harder
SO far as taking punishment is con-
Cerned, it cannot be denied that Pal
mer stands in a class that few others
adorn. AS the most knocked-down
man in Los Angeles he took the gaff
with remarkable gameness, and al
though making miserable pretense
at fighting, staggered about the ring
and refused to lie down.
The end was apparent from the Sec
ond round, when Palmer's footwork
appeared noticeably weak. He slipped
to one knee as result of his clumsy
underpins and it seemed as though the
Twin must get him sooner or later.
The Britisher's feet started things
wrong in the third. With every inten-
ton of landing a left to Sully's face Pal
mer stepped in, but akwardly. Twin
with a staggering left to the
jaw and the other Jack wobbled. Suliy
realized the situation and went after
his man viciously.
OF sudden Palmer dropped like a
shot. A left to the stomach and a
lightning right jolt to the jaw had done
it's work.
Palmer doubled like jack knife, but
vas on one knee as the gong rang with
Eyton counting two.
Palmer took a bad beating in the
fourth and had all he could do to cover.
Twin appeared to know that the Jig
was up and pecked away contentdly.
The crowd hooted Palmer in the fifth
when he covered, but 1t was about the

LONG BEACH, March 26.-Accordine
to ID. M. Linnard, manager OF the new
hotel being constructed on the beach
here, the name of the hostelry will be
changed from the Bixby to Hotel Vir-
ginia.
Directors of the company practically
confirmed Linnard's statement today
and It is believed the change has the
full sanction of lothian Bixby, the
president of the hotel company and the
man for whom the hotel was originally
named.
Manager Linnard will have the Hotel
Maryland of Pasadena and the Hotel
Virginia OF Long Beach both under his
direction. The new appellation for the
local hostelry is considered as quite
pleasing and has pretty effect, when
the two hotels are mentioned together.
