ment in the eighth and fought clever
ly while also swapping wallops with
Trennel. Bubbles stepped out of the
way of Trennel's leads as rule. and
by quickly stepping back would coun-
ter effectively. He had a big lead in
this round.
Trennel came back refreshed in the
ninth and put up the same style of
battle that he used in the beginning,
and by using his head a bit he took the
lead early and held it throughout. He
began to use left jab to the chin that
sent Bubbles head flying backward,
and landed effective wallops to the
head and body with frequency. Both
put up strong finish in the tenth and
it was nip and tuck between them.
Bubbles was the stronger at the fin
ish and was fighting fast, having Tren-
mel very tired and inclined to slow
down. Any other decision than draw
would be unfair to both. 1t was a good
draw.
Welsh offers Side Bet
Previous to the beginning of the big
fight the usual introductions were
made Freddie Welsh and Johnny
Murphy, who will box next Friday
night at Jeffries' Vernon club, were
first to be introduced and after An
nouncer Leslie had finished his little
speech Freddie authorized him to
challenge Packy Mcfarland to twen-
ty-five round fight at the lightweight
limit and offered a $4,000 side bet as a
special inducement for a return match
with the Chicago boy.
Brock was first to enter the ring,
being preceded by his seconds and as
sistants. Packy followed almost i'm
mediately. Those who were selected TO
act behind Brock were Cap McRea,
Billy Aldridge. Abdul and Danny Web
ster. Manager Gilmore, Trainer Kin
ealy, Charlie Anslinger and Joe La
zelle. The fighters had their gloves
tied on, posed for pictures and after
receiving their instructions retired to
their corners for the gong that sent
them on their way.

girl himself. And that is not saying
he is pretty, either. At that, here's
hoping he lives $50 more years. He is
not bad fellow.
Billy Nolan is in town. . billy is the
fellow who made Bat Nelson famous
Usually, when Billy blows into Los
Angeles. something important or start
ling follows as inevitably as day fol-
lows night, but, for once, his visit car
ries no prospect of inything important
or startling. He is circulating among
his local friends, just saying "howdy,"
and will go to San Diego this morning
to attend to little personal business.
He stopped over to take in the Nc
Farland- Brock fight because he wanted
to see the unDeaten lightweight in
action. He still has a warm spot in
his heart for Bat Nelson and says that
the Dane won his fight with Cans, and,
incidentally, annexed the lightweight
championship, on the level. Billy says
that Cans is 3S years old and complete
ly down and out and lost to the Dane
simply because he could not win. 1t
was not in him to win. Billy owns a
1300-acre ranch near Middletown and is
living the simple life now. He is we'll
fixed, free Of cares and pugilistic
squabbles and 1t will be a long time
before he gets back in the game un-
less something big turns up. Billy has
made enemies because he is a success
full manager and always willing to
match his brain and diplomacy against
that of any other man. He always
wins and naturally the knockers are on
his trail all the time.
About a dozen good sportsmen at
tended the fight last night with snow
white hats on their heads. They at
tracted considerable attention. AL
Greenewald did not see them until they
had become seated, and as there was n
big jam in the center aisle, near which
the white hat brigade sat, AL chased
down and collared one business man
who wore one of the cream puffs and
jerked him out of the seat, inquiring
why do you not seat these people? ?
Why are you sitting down at this stage
of the game?" The business man was
bit angry at first but saw through
the joke, and when Al realized his mis-
take he had to laugh a bit. The
"ushers" also Smiled" several times
after getting back up town.
Reports from New York are to the
effect that George Rose is $75, 900 win
ner on the metropolitan, despite that
it now is the CLOSED" season for book
makers in the east. George is so we'll
known to the plunging brigade and puts
no bar on the size of wagers that it is
very convenient for these big bettors
to call him aside and say, "I'll bet you
$4,000 on So-and-So." George always
says, You're on" SO that accounts
for the story of his winnings. He quit
the coast several thousand dollars loser
last spring, but if the reports from the
east are dependable he has made it
up and a little bit more. Sam Shaen is
with him, and between them they
should be able to get their share of the
big memory transactions.

(SpeciaD PROBABLY within two weeks
the firing test with 12-inch guns at
the turret of the monitor Florida

months preparations for this event
have been going forward, and every
thing now is practically. ready. Con-
ditions "as nearly as possible APP
preaching actual warfare are to be
the paramount feature of this under

all details of the test are refused at

Following experiments carried on
by the British government a year
ago in firing at the old war ship
Hero, the conclusion was reached by
the Navy Department that much val
liable data might be obtained from
like test on one of our monitors, of
which the government has four of
the Florida type What little infor-
nation the British government was
willing to give out, showing the
results of the firing at the Hero, is

HELEN GOULD AND
THE FRENCH COUNT

NEW YORK. April (Special)-
Some little progress was made today
in the French-American wooing when
the Prince de Sagan left his apart
ments in the WaldOrf-AstOria, took
luncheon with Mr. and Mrs. Tyler
Morse at the ST Regis, and spent the
afternoon there is company with Nine.
Anna Gould.
Whether the lovers considered to-
gether the adVisability of returning
to Europe at once or staying on a
few days more in the hope that a fin
al appeal to George Gould to sanction
the marriage would be successful
could not be learned. The report that
they would be married within a month
in America if George Gould consent
ed, and in Europe if he did not, how
ever was confirmed
The part that the Tyler Morses are
playing in the international comedy
courtship is creating much amusement
in clubdom. 1t seems to be pretty
generally conceded that they are rem
dering their service with The assur-
ance that it will establish a place
for them in Partisan society if the
match takes place or at least go
in the polite world of New York, in
which they are ambitious to shine
The prince, of course, reiterates
that the friendship between himself
and Nine. Gould is a purely platonic
one, and that it is only the newspapers
which assume the contrary He practi-
cally admits. however, that the Gould
family is set against the match
1t was said today that the unsympa-
thetic attitude of her family is caus-
ing Nine Gould much distress Not
only is George Gould reported to have
absolutely refused to consent to the
marriage, but Helen Gould. at whose
