NEW TEAM NOW IN FIELD
FOR TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP
Palmer and Gardner, Encouraged by
Defeat of Holden and Emerson.
Should Prove Fast Pair
in Future

CINCINNATI, Sept. "a new fac
tor in the contests for the national
doubles tennis championships in flu
ture years has developed from the tri-
state tennis tournament, which came
to an end here Tuesday after Richard
H. Palmer of New Jersey and Carlton
r. Gardner Of California had beaten
r. A. Holden. Jr., and Trux Emerson
for the tri-state mems doubles cham
pionship.
Palmer and Gardner had never met
before this tournament.
Holden and Emerson were expected
to win because of their usually fine
team play, which won them the cham
pionship in the western tournament at
Chicago.
Palmer and Gardner have decided to
make a permanent pairing for the big
eastern Journeys next year in an eff
fort to make a fight for the national
doubles championship.
Fred Alexander and Harold H.
Hackett of New York, who are per-
manently paired, have been able to
win the national doubles title year
after year. Mr.. Gardner is to leave
the Pacific coast and study art IN
New York.

that cut his face into ribbons.
Negro Hooted by Crowd
When johnson entered the ring the
crowd hooted as he sauntered down
the aisle and stepped over the ropes.
Kaufman was given great demon
stration.
At o. m. there was not vacant
seat in either the gallery or the re-
served seat section. A fringe of hu-
manity stood in the extreme rear OF
the gallery seats.
Good natured bidding toward fund
for L. r. Stockwell, the well-known
veteran actor, was then waged be-
tween Johnson and Kaufman. Kauf-
mann started the bidding with $40.
Johnson promptly raised this ten
spot, and the men gradually increased
1t until the $100 mark was reached.
This ended the affair and the men
then stripped for their photographs.
johnson looked bit fat as he posed,
while Kaufman appeared to be in fine
shape. The ring was then cleared and
the men called at 1904 p. m.
After the contest Johnson said: 81
found Kaufman a harder fighter than
[ expected. l thought l had him
twice. but each time he came back
apparently fresh.
II consider Kaufman a good man,
strong and with some cleverness, but
l haven't the slightest doubt that l
could put him out in twenty rounds" !"
johnson seemed as fresh as at the
| beginning of the first round. The only
mark on him was bruise on his low
er lip.
Kaufman said: 1T was as I ex-
pected; 1 could not beat Johnson in
| ten rounds. I was never dazed or dis
| tressed, and / know now that in a fin
ish fight I surely can beat him. John
son plainly grew weaker in the ninth
and tenth rounds, while 1 was as
strong as at any time during the
fight"
Kaufmann's lip was badly split, but
otherwise there were no marks to in
dicate that he had been subjected to
a severe beating.
The fight was witnessed by a tre-
mendous crowd, which was delayed in
reaching the arena by interrupted
transportation.

Before a crowd of several thousand
SPECTATORS yesterday afternoon the
children from the Echo park play
grounds carried their colors to an easy

meet, winning from the other seven
contesting Fairgrounds by the score of
31A Their closest competitors were
the teams from the Utah and Recrea-
ton center grounds, the former maxi
ing ten points while the latter scored
but IA.
The afternoons sport was probably
one Of the most novel and interesting
from every point of view which has
ever been witnessed IN the Angel City.
Hundreds of children, of all sizes, ages
and nationalities, racing UP and down
the broad Fairgrounds, presented g.
spectacle worth going a long distance
to witness. AS every race closed the
crowds of children thronging about
their instructor at the far end of the
grounds cheered madly, threw caps,
sunbonnets or even clothing into the
air.. and raced up and down in a per-
feet frenzy of excitement.

Los Angeles herald., 1909-09-10

Never before has such a lack of en-
thusiasm been displayed over con-
test between the big men of the ring,
and this feeling Is reflected in an al
most stagnant betting market.
The stirring scenes and tense air or
suppressed excitement which invari-
ably precedes championship contests in
San Francisco were conspicuously alb
sent. There were no long lines Of gal
lery-seat invaders and when the gates
were thrown open at IL a. m to hold
ers of these tickets only few hundred
filed through.
To a belated street parade and the
resultant delay to transportation to the
arena, the club promoters ascribed the
slim early gathering.
At 1870 .. m, however, there was
marked increase in the attendance and
the gallery and cheaper seats began
to fill rapidly.
The weather was ideal, though omi-
nous banks of fog clung to the hills
surrounding the arena.
Little Kaufmann Money
Much comment has been caused by
the fact that the men will engage in
only ten rounds of milling, and that
no decision shall be given by Referee
Ed Smith in the event that both fight
ers are on their feet at the end of the
fact that under the laws of California
finish fights are permitted.
Betting on the contest was apathetic.
johnson ruled favorite at the ringside
at odds of 10 to 4, but little money
changed hands at these figures. A
number of wagers were registered at
to l that the Californian would be
on his feet at the end of the tenth
round.
George Little, Johnson's manager. is
willing and anxious to bet, but stated
at the ringside that as yet he had not
located a single dollar of Kaufman
coin.
It was given out that Kaufmanh
weighed in this morning at about 205
pounds, while the champion Is reported
to have tipped the beam at 200.
The preliminary of more than usual
merit preceded the meeting of the big
fellows. 1t was a scheduled fifteen
round 60 between Roscoe Taylor of
Seattle and Tommy Mccarthy, a
local ring satellite, who has yet to
feel the sting of defeat These lads
weighed in this morning at 1870 pounds
and fought at the lightweight limit.
Betting was brisk on the result of this
match the odds favoring Mccarthy at
10 to 9.
Eddie Smith, who viii referee the
Johnson-Kaufman contest, gave out
the following statement to the As
ISOLATED Press at 2 o'clock:
"Kaufmann and johnson have been
given to understand that they must
fight all the time Stalling and other

Round johnson opened the battle
with a we'll placed left hook to the
stomach. The men then mixed at close
range, johnson landing right and left
short-arm punches to the jaw. John
son smiled and shot right and left to
the face. Kaufman looked bit Wor-
ried at this stage and spared for fully
half minute. Johnson closed in, land
ing short-arm rights and lefts to the
head. There was little sting in them,
however. Just before the round ended
Kaufman shot straight left to the
jaw, but the champion only smiled.
Kaufman seemed very slow in COM
parison with the fast work Of Johnson.
Round TWO
Johnson wrestled Kaufman against
the ropes and a moment later drove
straights left to the face. He followed
this with a left to the body and then
quickly brought the same member to

MaYor Alexander Present

Many older persons, including Mayor
Alexander and several members of the
city council, were on hand to watch
the youngsters compete in all kinds OF
races and contests for The Herald cup
The Echo park team found the road to
victory early in the game and took
three or four races without q. break,
placing them in the lead. Their one
sided victory was attributed to the fact
that a larger number of children attend
the Echo park than any of the other
Fairgrounds, affording much more ma
terial to select from. Owing to the abb
sence of Miss Anna st. Johns, who re-
Gently resigned from work at the cas-
telar street grounds, the boys and girls
from this playground competed in but
few contests, although they were orig
inally considered as being one of the
chief contehders.
Twenty boys ON each team, running
a thirty-yard and return relay race as
though their lives depended on the re-
suit, began the afternoons contest. The
Echo park team opened UP an early
lead which was gradually increased
until the boys from these Fairgrounds
were a full lap ahead at the finish.

Notes of the Game

Duffy Lewis was responsible for the
most spectacular catch of the year in
the seventh. DeVereaux hit a long
foul to the left field bleachers. Duffy
started after 1t, and not one out of
a thousand of the spectators thought
he would land. He dove as he reached
the fence, rolled and brought up hard
against the barrier, tossing the sphere
to the third baseman, as he landed
prone. He received one Of the most
cordial receptions of the season.
This makes it two-all. There was
plenty of ginger in the Vernon camp,
and they are planning few repeaters.
With such pitching as Willett gave, the
Haps ought to find the series easy.
Bernard saved some run-getting in
the fifth by pretty and heady back
stopping. w. Hogan lined one to
Devereaux, it bounced high over Brick S
head, and Bernie was waiting, throw
ing him out at first.
Kelly made a pretty long running
catch in the third inning, robbing
Stovall of a long hit.
Brown had to leave the game in the
sixth, when he was hurt trying to
corral a foul. The ball came down at
the backstop fence, Brown hot-foot-
ing after it. He slammed into the
fence and failed only of getting it by
the collision. He hurt his wrist badly,
and Hogan had to replace him behind
the bat.
Kitty Brashear put through a neat
steal In the eighth with Tonneson up
in the air, he walked away from the

Lassies in Fast Relay

A relay race for the girls, in which
there were but fifteen on each team
and the distance was but twenty yards
and return, was the second event of the
day. With hair and dresses flying, the
lassies raced up and down, around the
big most in the center and back to the
starting point, from which another
small flying figure. would Immediately
emerge to take up the contest anew for
the honor of her team. Several negro
girls were among the runners and tur-
,nished a striking contrast TO the other
girls as they raced side by SIDE.
Probably the most amusing contest
OF the program, and one which brought
howls of delight from the crowd OF
snectators was the obstacle race. In
this contest the participants WERE com
pelled to run to an ordinary size barrel'
crawl, lump or wriggle through, run
few wards further, return again ana
Chamber through the barrel, replace the
barrel in it's former position and return
to the starting point. Some Of the
Youngsters essayed to lift the barrel
over their heads and allow II TO drop,
while still others merely crawled
through on their hands and knees. one
small negro placed the barrel in front
ne him. turned over upon his side ana
rolled through the opening in sur
prisingly deft manner. The race was
extremely close Echo park again car
