BIG CROWD AT OPENING
OF THE P. KLINE CAFE.

Patsy Kline essayed the role of host
at his new cafe and clubrooms. Munroe
inc Downing streets, last night and
made the hit of his career. AS a test
of his popularity friends from far anu
near were on hand, and even the city
fathers were present TO wish Patsy
success in his new undertaking.
Patsy, arrayed in his wide striped
suit, with his bulldog at his side. stood
at the door to greet all who came, and
it was an immense throng. Long be-
fore midnight the han was so crowded
that those who came early departed
so as to give the later arrivals a chance
to shake the hand of their friend Patsy
and brother Nick who rivaled .
Tiffany show window, sparkled among
the guests and helped them make
merry.
Several good bouts were put on. and
Patsy, to be sure that no one would be
disappointed, gave a three-round ex-
hibition with Jim Savage. OF course.
there is a great difference in weight
but IN bout was some class. Hereafter
at the club-rooms there will be weekly
bouts, and it has been assured that
they will be hummers.

KETCHEL MAY DO
BATTLE WITH SAM
LANGFORD IN JULY
Men Have Not Signed, but Jim
Griffin Is Planning-May Have
Men Fight July 2 in Frisco.
Would Prove to Be a Great
Fight, Second to Big Battle.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March IL.
Vt is said that Promoter Jim Griffin
has conceived the idea of matching
a brace of good men for a late a
couple of days in advance of July A. If
the notion is original with Griffin 1T
shows that he has business acumen
which may result in his standing Shout
der to shoulder with the matchmakers
who achieve worldwide celebrity.
There was a whisper some days ago
that Richard and Gleason would have
opposition on July 4, but the sugges-
ton was secuted as a crazy one. A
man who attempts to promote a prize
ring event within fifty miles of Emery
vile track on independence Day would
be voted crazy.
On July 2 it will be different. The adj
guards of Johnson-Jeffries dele
cations from many outside points will
throng the streets of San Francisco
and pugilistic prattle will sound. Any
thing, almost in the shape of a bout
with the gloves will appeal to the
visitors-to say nothing of the stay at
homes-and of curse the more i'm
p%ortant the contest the better it will
take.
Griffin's first thought was given to a
match between Stanley Ketchel and
Sam Langford.

Weekly Snow at Harrison Gym
nasium Pleasing TO
the Fans.
.OUR knockouts and enough clever
II boxing to satisfy the most rabid

HOUR knockouts and enough clever
boxing to satisfy the most rabid
of the fans who visited Me-
Guigan's gymnasium, in Harrison.
were the features of the regular
weekly exhibition of the manly art
given there last night. Dixie Kid, the
fast welterweight, who is looked upon
as the champion of his class by many
of the New York experts, created a
favorable impression with all of the
spectators because of his ability to use
both hands and his stiffness. The
Dixie Kid after sparring Joe Gaynor
for two rounds fought Young Langford
for n session and made a punching
bag out of that worthy while the pair
were in the limelight. He wound up
with Gaynor. After the bout a match
was arranged with Al Benedict, the
young giant who made Jim Finney quit
later IN in the night.
The first round brought Young Fox
and Young Salisbury together. Fox
proved to be no match for his opponent.
n after two minutes of the first round
he was knocked out, as the result of a
well-direeted blow to the jaw that bore
the haymaker stamp. Young Salisbury
had his fighting blood up, n when
Young Lewis was brought forth to
battle. went at him hammer and tongs.
Lewis managed to weather the storm
of blows he received from Salisbury for
the remaining rour rounds.
The next event saw Young Bufford
and Young Fort in a smuggling match
that kept the fans on edge throughout
the bout
Bufford is a hard hitter and gets
plenty of weight behind his blows,
while Ford handles himself in a scien-
tific manner and is a clever ~all-around
lighter. .Bufford managed to break
through Ford's defense in the third
round, and in the fourth round the pair
just stood up and pummeled one an
other for all that was in it. AL Bene-
dict and Young Finney figured in the
following bout and the latter was SO
completely outclassed by Benedict, who
bears all the earmarSs of a conner, that
Finney threw up the sponge.
Young Baker stopped Frank Han
cock in the fourth round of their bout,
while Joe Cans pummeled Sam Lang
ford around in lively style. Willie
Lewis slightly outpointed Ray Hatfield

MALONEY AND HYLAND
FIGHT lG=ROUND DRAW,

Two promising lightweights fought
it out last night at the Long Acre Club
They were Joe Hyland and Tommy Ma,
loney, and it was really a bout that
would make some of our real light
weights hang their heads in shame. The
milling was tough all the way and the
honors so evenly divided hat to give
either one the decision would be doing
an injustice. although Hyland was COM
ing fast at the end and would have won
in a few more rounds, probably with a
knockout.
However, it was only a ten-round
bout. and Tommy showed up to be the
better general and more scientific OF
the two. Hyland had the ruggedness
and stiff punch with him, and but for
the handicap of shortness in reach he
might have ended the bout before the
tenth round. Maloney shone brightly
in the second round, when he used
about everything on the list in the
punching line. To the surprise of his
followers he slowed up in the third.
but recovered in the fourth and fifth
rounds enough to hold Hyland off and
even matters up.
