FLYNN ARRIVES
TO BOX BARRY
Milwaukee Lightweight in Excellent
Condition, and Shows Great Speed
and Cleverness in Training.
Frisco Boy Doing Nicely

Jim Flynn arrived last night from
Pueblo to go into training for his ten
round argument with Jim Barry, which
Manager McCarey will stage early next
month at Maud Junction. Flynn has
been taking good care of himself, as his
appearance indicates, and is ready to
begin training at once. He has en-
gagged the Terrible Turk already and
wants Battling Johnson for sparring
partner. He went out TO the East Side
Athletic club last night and will be-
gin training today.
Dick Cullen is working at the East
Side club for his local debut, which
will be pulled off Friday night when
he meets Maurice Sayers in a ten
round bout as the headliner of the
popular-price show McCarey will stage.
Cullen is a hard worker in training,
and long since removed all doubt that
may have existed regarding his condi-
ton. He is making weight with great
case, already being below the required
133-pound notch, anG has not been COM
PEELED to sacrifice condition for weight,
as he finds it easy to make 128 pounds
when required. He boxed yesterday
afternoon with Willie O'Neill, the San
Francisco boy who is to tackle Danny
Webster over the ten-round distance
Friday night.
Sayers is training at Jack Doyle's
club at Vernon and going at clip that
indicates he will take no chances what
Los Angeles herald., 1908-10-20

ever of being caught out of condition.
He still insists that he should have
been given the decision over Murphy,
and wants to make good in decisive
fashion by whipping Cullen as quickly
as possible.
He is SO speedy and clever that the
ten-round route possibly favors him
more than it favors Cullen, who is a
natural fighter
The boys who dropped their bank
rolls when Kid Snyder lost to Walter
Fisher recently are saving their coin
for Friday night in the hope of getting
it back with interest when Snyder and
Fisher fight their return battle. Sny-
der is confident he will whip the popu-
lar little tow'head from San Berdoo,
and as both boys are training hard
and Systematically they may be eX-
pected to enter the ring at their best
form. Fisher anticipates an easier VIC
tory over Snyder next time that when
they met last, but he is so ambitious
to get on up the ladder that he is TAX
ing no chances of being caught out of
condition.
Danny Webster and Willie O'Neill
are going fast clip in their training
camps, as their bout is one filled with
important considerations for each.
Webster wants to regain what pres
tige he lost in his battle with Wolgast
and feels that he must win to do so.
He is working in his favorite camp in
Boyle Heights. O'Neill wants to make
good because it will be his maiden
scrap in the south. He is putting in
some hard licks with Dick Cullen out
at Wards club.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-10-20

| left here, especially since the game mas
shut down tight in milwaukee. AS
there is such a slight difference In the
weight demands of the boys. the COM
promise suggested by the club prob
ably will be accepted and the match
closed at once.
Welsh has been going at such an
awful clip in his bouts since the draw
scrap with Mcfarland that he has
scared most of the iightweights off the
same road he is travelling. He was a
shortender at ridiculous odds last time
he and Mcfarland met but his Inn
! proved form since will send him into
the ring at nearer even odds next time.
Long is going after the big game
and the way he Is starting off makes
a most favorable prospect for busy
and profitable winter season for the
club. The contractors are at work on
the roof, starting yesterday, and Will
have II in place in three weeks. This
Will make 1t profitable and possible Tor
the club to pull off night fights without
subjecting the fans to the discomfort
of sitting for two or three hours in tho
fog and falling dew, as was the case
at night scraps during the summer.
Long has plenty of time ahead of him
to cage q few big birds for his shows,
and he Is making the right sort of
move In going after only the biggest
and best cards possible to be arranged.
Lack % a roof has cost the club sew
eral times the sum involved In putting
one over the arena, as the fans would
not attend night fights according to
the merit of the cards present9l. while
the Wolgast-Weeks scrap would have
been fought out Saturday afternoon
had a roof been on at that time. With
the racing season at hand, afternoon
fights must be abandoned and the roof
Is absolutely necessary II night at
fractions are to be carded. The club
deserves better success than 1t has ex-
perienced. and with first-class offer
ings during the winter 1t should lay up
few dollars for its promoters Only
high class cards will draw and only
this kind is worth fooling with. 80 the
policy of the club in going after the
best in the market is the wisest move
1t has made in long time.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-10-20

Baron Long received two kilograms
from Abe Attell last night, in which
the featherweight champion consents
to take on Wolgast over the twenty
fve-round route. Abe wants to know
the terms that the club will offer and
Long wired right back. offering terms
that are far more favorable than At
tell has been accustomed to receiving.
Since Abe Is willing to talk business
and has no alluring prospect at the
present for a profitable match else
where, he Is expected to accept the
terms without delay.
Mcfarland and Welsh have accepted
the preliminary offer of the club and
about the only important detail over
which there is apt to be any hitch Is
the weight question. Packy wants to
make it 1876 pounds at 8 o'clock. while
Welsh asks for ringside weight. The
club has proposed as compromise that
they make the lightweight limit at s
o'clock, which, really, Is a split OF both
demands In this regard-each meeting
half way on the weight question.
Wolgast has desired a scrap with the
champion for long time, and came to
the coast expressly for that purpose.
He has all confidence in his ability to
win the championship and will not be
troublesome to handle In the negotia-
tions, owing to this great desire to
tackle the king of his division.
Attell has lost much of his popu-
larity with the Frisco fans because he
allowed owen Moran to stick the route
with him TO a draw both times they
fought In the north. He is finding It
difficult down east to get a paying
match, and naturally Is inclined to con-
sider offers from his home city again.
While not popular fighter, because he
is so stubborn he will not allow his
opponents to whip him, Abe always
attracts good crowds because of his
proved class and the fact that he is
the champion.
Mcfarland is fighting for $500 guar
antees down east and is finding 1t rath-
er difficult to get them. He Is most
anxious to wipe out the only stain on
his record-the draw with Welsh-and
will be more traetable than when he

A PPARENTLY Harvard this year Is
u to know football and is to be
- equipped with emergency plays.
Lectures and blackboard talks have
been the daily diet of the squad ever
since the season opened At these
talks the theories and principles of the
game are gone over while new plays
are mapped out and learned before be-
ing sprung on the gridiron. Secret
practice apparently forms a necessary
adjunct to these blackboard talks. The
plays learned by daily illustration in
the lecture room can be practiced safely
from the eyes of the curious or in
terested. Now that the players have
had the elementary principles of the
game taught them in thorough fashion
the trick plays and varied formations
ON the blackboard are next in order.
Secret practice from now on will figure
strongly on the Harvard program.
Los Angeles herald., 1908-10-20

Harvard has the nucleus for an ex-
ceptiona,ly good team this year. The
game with Springfield training school,
while easy for the crimson, brought out
many faults and many weaknesses in
the play OF her eleven, but the men
stood the struggle exceedingly well.
The Harvard forwards are more finished
in their play than the men in the back
field. due, perhaps, to greater ex :
perience.
Couch Houghton is putting the var
sity squad to the hardest kind Of tests
in preparation for the final games OF
the season, and the squad is being
driven to the utmost every day in ten
minute scrimmages. and he usually
sends the second team flying back to-
ward it's own goal posts. Kennard,
Graydon and Waterbury have distin-
guished themselves by clever speedy
work.

Individually the Harvard men look
good. Their physiques are ideal for
football. There is no extra weight on
the squad. Their men are fast and
aggressive and their individual play is
good enough. But. as a team, they
lack power. In the recent game with
Williams they could do nothing with
the Williams line during the first half,
and not until the latter part of the
game, when the Williams forwards were
laid out and the coaches had sent In
many new men did the Harvard team
gain consistently. on one occasion the
Williams team held Harvard for three
downs on their eight or ten-yard line.
The team lacked power and its strength
was not concentrated at 1.-The one at
taclSing point. The material is there
and the spirit is there. Harvard al
ready has a mighty good team and one
that will improve steadily.

SNAKE SCARED THE EMPLOYEES.
Poisonous Reptile Among the Archives
Of Portugal's Peers.

Some time ago 1t was reported in
the press that while workmen were
searching for certain documents in
the archives of the house Of peers sew
eral snakes appeared from among the
dust-covered volumes.
The panic-stricken employees imme-
diately fed, and absolutely refused
to return to such a dangerous occu-
patton.
The presence Of the snakes has
never been accounted for.
Recently, however, all the docu.
ments were carted to the underground
archives of the ministry of the in
terror.
Recently II was reported in the
press that while the documents were
being sorted out a fiat-headed snake
suddenly wriggled out, biting the en-
ploye on the lip. 1t then disappeared
among the piles OF documents. Half
an hour later the man died in terrible
agony. The body turned black and
was horribly swollen.
Notwithstanding the government Of
ficials' entreaties, all the employees re-
fuse to descend to the archives.
