training camps, it being practically the
end of work in preparation for their
ten-round boxing contest at McCarey
pavilion tomorrow evening.
At San Pedro the Russian went on
the road in the forenoon and in the
afternoon he went through an hour and
ten minutes of work at the gym OF the
athletic club, boxing three rounds with
Howard Baker, three with Fred Ward
and two with Jack Walsh. He weighed
1913 pounds after his workout and will
go into the ring at about 1876 pounds.
Johnson will not do any more work,
having attained condition which per-
fectly satisfies him and his trainers
Jim Flynn was on the road yesterday
morning for an hour and three-quar
tiers with Danny Webster and in the
afternoon he did his regular work with
the apparatus at the Eastside Athletic
club, ending with four rounds of box

CLUB OARSMEN
WORK IN RAIN
COACH PUTS THEM THROUGH
DAILY STUNTS
FoUR-oAR CREW is GIVEN TWO
STIFF WORKOUTS
Treloar Highly Pleased with Training
Results and Enthusiasm of the
Boys Who Will Row for
Championship

Yesterday was a busy day with the
Los Angeles Athletic club rowing squad
at Naples, and from early morning I'M
til late in the evening Coach Al Treloar
was coaching the rowers who will rep
resent the athletic club in the various
events which will be pulled off Thanks
giving day in the big regatta for the
championship of California.
The members of the four-oar crew
were hustled from their quarters at Z
o'clock yesterday morning, and after
a mile run took their places In the she'll
with Coach Treloar in the coXswain
seat After a stiff. four-mile row the
boys had their breakfast and loafed
around the quarters until $3.50 o'clock.
At 10 o'clock Coach Treloar ordered
the boys who are to row in the single
gig race for the championship of the
club into their boats, and after giving
each man some individual instruction
regarding their style of rowing he sug-
gested that they row around the lagoon
until they got tired. Coach Treloar
then turned his attention to George
Retzer, who is to represent the club in
the single gig race for the champion
ship of California. Retzer passed al
most the entire morning on the lagoon,
and his rowing evidently pleased the
coach.
At $3.50 o'clock the members of the
four-oar crew again were ordered to
prepare for a spin in the shell. Re-
CARELESS of pouring rain, Treloar took
them for four-mile spin. Their form
was almost perfect, and it would have
taken an expert of more than ten years
experience to pick any glaring flaws in
the crew. Coach Treloar steered the
boat, and he had the boys hit up the
4 f..A.r -.
The members who turned out to prac-
tice in the single gig were j. G. stat
ford, A. K. Clymer ], p. Lazarus and
Chester Lawrence. The race should lie
between the first two named members,
as they have had the most experience
and showed up to good advantage yes
terday.
Coach Treloar is surprised that his
coxswain has not as yet reported to
him for practice. Monday will be the
last opportunity Loeb will have to make
the crew. 1t was mutually understood
that Joe was to steer the boat during
the big race Thanksgiving day But
unless he reports to the coach today his
place will be filled by somebody else.
Several club members state that Joe
left Los Angeles about month ago
for San Francisco, but would return in
time to take his place in the she'll
An unusually large number of per-
sons witnessed the workouts of the
crew yesterday at Naples, among them
being a large delegation of young wo-
men from the Marlborough school of
Los Angeles, all of whom are planning
to attend the regatta next Thursday
morning.
The official length of the course is
l mile $50 yards. This will make about
three and a half miles of rowing for
each of the participating fours, as the
race will be rowed in three heats. The
heats will end off the big observation
pier at Naples.

OXY IS READY
FOR BIG GAME
ENTHUSIASM Is HIGH AMONG
STUDENTS
ANNUAL GRIDIRON BATTLE WITH
POMONA TODAY
College Band, Roosers' Club and Other
Noise-Making Encouragers Are in
Readiness for Contest Today
at GarVanza

Everything is in readiness at Occi-
dental today for its last and biggest
game of the year, that with Pomona.
Dean Ward of the college has made
arrangements whereby all recitations
will cease at noon and the entire stu
dent body thus will be able to attend
the game. The climax of enthusiasm
has been reached, big student rallies
having been held almost every after
noon last week and every student in
college and academy is awaiting the
referees whistle. Yell Leader Bird
has drilled the Rooters club until they
have all the old college songs down to
a fine point and with the introduction
of several new songs and bleacher
stunts the Presbyterians expect to
make a good showing. The college
band also has added several new songs
to it's repertoire and expects to do
things In the nose making line.
scoreboard has been placed opposite
the bleachers to keep the spectators
well informed as to the progress of
the game.
President Baer has received tele-
grams from several of the alumnae at
Stanford, Berkeley and Princeton wish
ing the team good luck, and Crane and
Burt of last years team, who now are
at Princeton, sent missive to the eff
feet that Occidental must ''chew
EN- up"
Every member of the team will go
into the game today in great condi-
ton. Patterson at left tackle will play
in the place of Landreth, who was in
1ured in the game with Los Angeles
high, and has not been able to get out
since. Johnson will go into the game
at right end, but Hopkins will be kept
in readiness on the side lines to take
h NNa san
will start the game at left end. but may
be replaced by Gordon. Baer. who has
been playing quarter on the second
team all season, has shown such i'm
provement during the past week that
he may be allowed to play part of
the game today, The back field will
remain the same as 1t was in the high
school game, Capt. Wieman playing
full and Collins and Carus playing the
halves
The rivalry between Pomona and Oc-
cidental perhaps is the greatest that
exists among the southern colleges.
Until about four years ago Pomona
had overwhelmed Occidental in every
annual match for about ten years, but
in 1906 Occidental turned the tables
and won by the score of % TO s, and
again last year barely won by score
of 6 to 8. This year the game looks
to be closer than ever before, and de-
spite the fact that the game is TO be
played on the Presbyterian field,
winner cannot be selected in advance.
On comparative scores the dope on
both teams is badly muddled. as a re-
suit of Pomonas tying U. s c. and
Occidental's defeat of Los Angeles
high. The fact that Occidental held
the Indians to 4 to score, While
Pomona was overwhelmed by score
of 80 to 0. has little bearing on the
outcome of todays game, because OF
the conditions existing when Occidental
met the redskins.

Los Angeles herald., 1908-11-23

Both boys practically have finished
training, although each will keep ham
mering away in mild manner until
about twenty-four hours preceding the
weighing-in hour, just to keep on edge
and prevent any going backward bust
ness in their condition. Freddie is the
only one who must make weight, as
Abe will be highly pleased If he tips
the beam at 126 pounds Thursday aft
ernoon. Freddie is within two pounds
of the required 100 notch and is hold
ing at these figures, as he expects to
dry out the extra poundage and there
by not weaken himself by reducing
too far.
Welsh went through a long turn at
shadow boxing, just to prove that he
has plenty of speed and endurance,
and then tried his hand at the various
other stunts that precede the boxing
windup of the afternoon workout.
Then he took on his namesake, Young
Fred Welsh, of the Seaside city and
boxed easily with him for three rounds.
Jeff Perry, former sparring partner to
Bat Nelson, was next to don the
gloves and he and Freddie mingled in
a lively manner. Mike Kutchos, who
is to battle with the other Attell,
Monte, in the semi-windup of the
Thanksgiving eve card, was the con-
GLIDING number on the Welsh pro-
gram and Freddie gave him a sound
drubbing, although Mike walloped one
over on Freddie's nose and made the
blood come.
Perry was much impressed with the
manner in which Welsh hammered him
about the indoor ring and said after
ward: II have worked a lot with
Nelson. but If he were to fight Welsh
I would bet on the Englishman. He
moves about like a flash and anybody
who tells you he cannot hit is away
off," Venice, of course, is stringing with
Freddie almost to a man and they pro-
TESS to believe that Attell has stacked
up against the real thing for once In
his life.
Attell loafed about his quarters dur
ing the afternoon, fearing to take any
chances of contracting a cold so close
to fight day. He seemed to be delighted
that he was prevented from working
Los Angeles herald., 1908-11-23

and expressed himself a S more than
pleased with his condition and pros
poets. This battle is of too much i'm
portance for me to take any unneces-
sary risks" he said. "I have been
working like a beaver ever since hit
here and honestly 1 feel as good as l
ever felt in my whole life. To cut out
work today will do me no harm, for 1
am on edge, and save for little work
tomorrow, I will take it easy until L
get after that Englishman next We'd
nesday night"
From today onward there will be lit
tie doing at the Attell camp. His pro-
gram, as outlined by him yesterday,
will consist in light exercise, after the
workout today is ended. He Will cut
out boxing after today, but will tackle
Hobo Dougherty for five rounds this
afternoon, and then peel off the gloves
until Wednesday night. Able figures
that he will weigh close to 126 pounds
when he and the English champ square
Off and this probably will give him
handicap of about six or seven pounds.
There has been little or no betting
since the odds shifted back to evens
few days ago. Welsh made the At
tell hackers a bit timid by displaying
his bank roll and asking for some At
tell money, and since the odds have
gone to eVens both sides seem to be
playing a waiting game to get better
odds. 1t is believed that the big bet
ting will be done the day of the fight.
Interest in the battle is on the in
crease, as the constant demand for
tickets at all the branch offices proves.
Depsite that yesterday was a rainy
Sunday the seat sale was not affected
and the gratifying feature at which
the club officials are pointing with pride
is that the sale practically has been
limited to the highest priced seats This
is accounted for in the fact that the
battle viii be fought at such a dizzy
pace that everybody seems to want to
get down to ringside. Since the new
roof is completed weather conditions
will not affect the fight, and If rain
keeps up sawdust walks will be built
from the car tracks to the walk in front
of the pavilion.

RAIN CAUSE OF
DISAPPOINTMENT
MOTORCYCLE RACE MEET DE-
FERRED ONE WEEK.
Paul Derkum in Exhibition on Wet
Track in Binding Fog Reels
Off One Mile in So LIS
Seconds

Postponement of the motorcycle race
meet to have been held yesterday aft
ernoon was caused by a heavy fog
that later turned into a drizzling rain.
large audience went out to Ascot
park, Notwithstanding the threatening
weather, and others were arriving up
to the time that the rain checks were
given out.
The track became too wet to be safe,
but the main trouble that was en-
countered was the fog, which blinded
the riders who tried to go around the
oval
Several exhibition miles we're ridden
that the crowd would not be too seri-
ously disappointed. Derkum, for whose
benefit the meet was planned, rode an
exhibition mile in So Id seconds and
declared that with good weather the
time made next Sunday afternoon will
undoubtedly set many new records.
Freddy Huyck, Ben Bresee, Earhart
and Shaffer turned a mile or two, but
none of them would let the machines
out as Derkum did.
Before the announcement was made
that the meet would be postponed one
week, Manager Ben Fay gathered all
them up, introducing them to the
crowd.
All have promised to ride next Sun
day, weather permitting. even those
from out of town will remain over anG
the program will have hardly change
in it.
Huyck proved himself a coming
popular rider by the way in which he
rode around the oval. Earhart was
shown 70 be the prime favorite among
the amateurs, and quite an ovation
was given him when he stepped to the
front to be introduced.
The track has been put in fine con-
dition, and had it not been for the fog
binding the riders several of the
events could have been pulled off yes
terday afternoon, but in order to give
the public the best that could be af-
forded it was considered advisable to
postpone the meet.
The track with the fog upon it would
have made the riding slow and there
is little probability that any records
would have been smashed
With a week or more to practice and
roll the track with the machines at
| least a seconds better time ought to
be made by any of the riders.
