ENGLISH HORSEMEN ARE
STUDYING NEW TR0TTER
ChanticIer, Cross Between Hack
ney Stud and American Mare

LONDON, April 16-A horse of quite
exceptional interest, a prospective can
didate for olympia, was seen recently
at Birchington, Kent, where he was
being trained to face the hustle OF
Olympia.
The horse, named Chanticler by ms
owner and breeder, Walter Winans, Is
in gait, action and appearance an
American trotter Some of these Amer
lean trotters can trot a mile in about
two minutes, or even less, but the va
riety has never been cultivated in Eng
land. Chanticler is, indeed, the first
trotting horse at all equal to the Amer
lean ever bred in England. His sire
is an English hackney-Sir Walter Gil
bey's Brave Member-and his dam a
famous trotting mare, Lady Brilliant
belonging to Mr.. Winans.
The intention is to establish this cross
between the English hackney and the
American trotter as a new breed, and
experiments are being made at Sur
renden park If other horses of the
quality of Chanticler can be bred the
breed should have great success III

MANY PERSONS ATTEND
KITE FLYING TOURNEY

SAN PEDRO, April 16.-Over thou
sand persons attended the first annual
kite flying tournament at Point Firmin
this afternoon. Included in the crowd
were three cars of boys from Los
Angeles, who arrived this morning.
Miss Lavete Crump, sloyd teacher
in the local schools. had charge of the
arrangements, under the direction of
c. w. Miller director of manual train
ing. Diplomas were presented by DIR.
Grant Karr. The tournament was held
on the fortification site recently pur-
chased by the government. This makes
an ideal site for kite flying on account
of the afternoon trade winds.
For original designs the heathen
Chinese boys would not have been in
it i'm competition with the American
boys today There were tailless kites,
star kites. bird kites, compound kites,
tandem kites, monoplanes, biplanes,
parachutes and dirigible kites.
The recent aviation meet furnished
many ideas. There were many entries
in the aeroplane classes. Each aviator
was permitted to use $50 feet of string
and run 100 feet. Then he gave a slack
line and allowed the kite to glide, the
longest glide winning.
There was also much interest in the
draught kites competing for the strong
est pull, as we'll as the little tailless
kites flown on 100 feet of thread.

RYAN SPOKEN OF AS
PAPKE'S NEXT MANAGER
Former MiddIeWeight Champ
Makes Noise Like Wise Man

CHICAGO, April 16.-The real rea-
son why Tommy Ryan has declined to
assist Jack Johnson in his training is
that he has made deal with Billy
Papke whereby he will steer the
illinois Thunderbolt's" pugilistic
course hereafter, according to reports
current here this afternoon.
The story is that Papke has return
ed from Paris more eager than ever to
grab the middleweight championship
crown, and to keep it, and that he has
picked Ryan as the best bet in ac-
complishing that wish.
Papke feels that Ryan is one of the
cleverest boxers that ever lived, and,
that being near Papke's size, he can
give the latter the finer points of the
fighting game he now lacks. One of
Ryan's friends quoted him this after
noon as saying:
81 can make Papke defeat Ketchel;
I know that to a certainty. 1 believe
that Billy, with a little of the right
kind of instruction that 1 can give
him. will develop into the greatest
middleweight the world has ever pro-
duced. Just watch his smoke when

WASHINGTON TO ROW
WISCONSIN IN JUNE
Coach Ten EyCk Will Work Crew
to Limit

MADISON, April 16.-The date for
the first crew race between Wiscon-
sin and Washington has been decided,
after considerable negotiation between
the Pacific coast and Wisconsin state
coaches. Director, Ten Eyck received
word from Washington accepting June
4 for the race on Lake Mendoza.
For some time there was an effort
made by Washington to have the race
the following week. The Madison
crew has been working for several
weeks, and Ten Eyck expects to have
his men row 500 miles before the date
of the race. The Washington students
are trying to raise a fund of $500 to
send the crew east, and Wisconsin is
to help pay the expenses.
