Two Olympic Club Boxers
Are PrOfeSSiOnalized

The registration committee of the
Pacific athletic association met yester-
day afternoon and professionalism two
of the Olympic clubs best boxers, Phil
Noonan and Lawrence Granfield, for
fighting at Monte Rio July for $50
purse and for having used assumed
names. This, undoubtedly, will serve as
a warning to many of the local boxers,
who think they can slip off into the
country and fight under assumed names
without being found out.
communication was received from
the national registration committee
in regard to the case of Harry
Gissing, a former member of the
Mohawk athletic club, who wants
70 participate under the New York
athletic clubs colors in the ma
tional championships at Seattle. Ac-
cording to the rules of the Amateur
athletic union a member of one club
can not compete under another clubs
colors within one year after his last
competition unless he receives a re-
lease from the club with which he orig
inally registered. This release has
been refused by the Mohawks, so a
vote on the question has been re-
quested by the New York athletic
club. After some discussion the local
committee decided to vote against the
release in favor of the Mohawk club
AS soon as one of the smaller club
athletes begin 10 make a showing in
composition there is always one of the
larger clubs that is trying to get hold
Of him. There have been a number of
similar cases here and the local COM
mittee on registration is to be congrat-
ulated on the stand 1t is taking.

Annual Dipsea Race May Be
Held in September

While the date has not been set posi-
lively, it is probable that the next an
nual Dipsea race will be held on the
first Sunday in September, a month
earlier than heretofore. This date. it
seems, is little too early and the In
dians would do much better to have it
on the old date.
The local cross country runners have
had an active spring and summer sea :
son and the race on the first of Septem-
Der would mean that training must be
commenced Immediately, in fact should
have commenced few weeks ago. A
race in September would mean that the
athletes must condition themselves for
what is going to be long, hard season.
for the great events of this year will be
run off during Portola week, and the
first week in October would prepare
the Dipsea men in great shape for the
Portola distance races.
This matter will be called to the at
tention of Grand Chief T. L. Fitzpatrick
and an effort will be made to have the
race set for the old date, the first sun
day in October.
