BIG FIGHT WITH NO

of the most sensational financial dab
BILE ever connected with fsticuffs, in
New York hotel the other day ''Thera
will be no liquor sold at or near the
ring on July 4. Tex Rickard is as
strongly opposed to it as I am.
"Should the negro astound the loyal
supporters of jeff by making a win
ming stand against the big Californian,
there is no telling what might happen
if Westerners, piled with intoxicants,
turned upon the men who will cheer
johnson. From present indications
there will be more than $4,000 specta-
tors, each with a decided opinion re-
garding the merits of the fghters''
Tripping g1ngerly to a telephone in
his room and giving orders to men rep
resentIng him in completing arrange

Gleason suddenly turned his talk over
the wire to some of the guests expect

Los ANGELES ACTS
AGAINST FIGHTERS

Following up the information that
San Francisco was enforcing very
stringent regulations in regard to
prize fighting, came the news yester-
day that Los Angeles had also taken
rather drastic action. Fo lowing is
the information given out from that
city:
LOS ANGELES, August 2.-The
prize-fght ordinance intended to regu-
late boxing contests in Los Angeles in
the future was presented 10 the City
Council today. The ordinance, as
drafted, prohibits professional boxing
contests where a money purse is Of
fered, but allows amateur sparring eX-
hibitions where a medal or trophy is
offered as a reward, said amateur con-
test not to be over four rounds, the
medal or trophy not to exceed $35 in
value.
Amateur boxing contests are. also
prohibited except pursuant to permit
first granted by the Board of Police
Commissioners. Eight-ounce gloves
are prescribed for amateur contests.
City Attorney Shenk believes the or
dinance will effectually prohibit pro-
fessional contests or so-called prize
fights and properly regulate amateur
contests or exhibitions.
The Council referred the ordinance
to the legislation committee. Repre-
sentatives from the American Athletic
Union, it is said, intend appearing be-
fore the committee next Monday to
discuss phases of the ordinance with
the committee.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1910-09-01

several other players who appear to
have god chance of reaching the
finals in the other half of the tourna-
ment. Miss Coda Niger and Mrs. Geo.
Coulter are the most l'kely candidates
but Mrs Niemeyer, Miss Greenberg
and one or two others are considered
dangerous contestants.
The match between Miss Myer and
Mrs. Coulter will be awaited with in
terest. Miss Myer has proved herself
the best player in Northern California
outside of Miss Hotchkiss and Mrs.
Coulter is the present champion of the
Hawaiian islands. One of these two.
will in all probability meet Miss Hazel
Hotchkiss in the final round.
The competition for the champion
ship in mems doubles will commence
tomorrow morning, and from all indi-
cations there will be several good
teams entered. The entries for the
event will not close until this after
noon at ) o'clock, however, so there is
no way in which to size up the chances
of the different teams The doubles
event should be NOR interesting than
the singles, as ,neie will be more
evenly matched teams in all prob
ability.
The tournament will continue
through Saturday, when the final
rounds will be played in the different
events. On the last day of play an
admission fee will be charged to the
grounds, but on other days all are in
vited to attend the matches. All
matches in the women's events will
consist of best two out of three sets.
In the mems events all matches, with
the exception of the finals, will consist
of best two out of three sets. The
finals will be best three out of five
sets.

FOR REGATTA DAY.

Although the regatta committee of
the Myrtle and Healani boat clubs has
not yet had a meeting, and consequent
ly has done nothing official in regard
to Regatta Day there has really been
great deal of activity in the past
few days with the racing crews. No
end of material is available this year
for the crews, although most of it is
in need of the finer points of training.
The lineups for the senior crews will
be as follows
Myrtle-Bill Lyle, stroke; w. Nc
Dougal No. 5; John O'Brien, No. A;
b. Chillingworth, No. 3; Paul Schmidt

McINTosH's CARDS.

While in Seattle Mcintosh held a
conference with Tommy Burns, at the
close of which he stated that he had
practically closed terms for a twenty
round match between Burns and Sam
Langford for London next December.
The Australian promoter also says
that he wants to bring Burns and
Johnson together, and that, as John
son promised the Canadian another
chance, he is hopeful of signing them
up for London at some future dates

in future than has been in practice in
the past Indiscriminate shooting,
both as to season and number of birds
slaughtered, is rapidly depicting the
number of birds on this island, and the
honest sportsmen feel that some law
should be made that will prove eff
fective in the matter. The Gun Club
can watch it's own members and pres
cribe rules governing it's own marks
men, but there it's authority stops and
it can only appeal to the public to
do the rest. The agitation may re-
suit in some protective measure being
recommended to the Board of Super
visors.

WAS SECOND MATCH.

The golf meeting on August 23 at
Del Monte, Cal, between Campbell
Whyte of San Francisco, and young
Austin White, of Honolulu, was the
second battle on the links between
these players. White met Whyte last
year and defeated him, the triumph of
the youngster over the capitalist and
veteran golfer being widely comment
ed upon at that time. The failure of
White to repeat his former exploit
while disappointing is not a bad re-
cord when the calibre of his opponent
is taken into account.

THEY'RE SURE OFF.

The pair-oared race on Regatta
Day between Delegate Kalanianaole
and Judge A. G. M. Robertson, on the
one side, and Charles F. Chilling
worth and Frank Thompson on the
other is to be no joke. Both crews
are practicing daily, the former IN
the mornings ana the latter in the
afternoons. The contest is to be for
a swell dinner at the Young-very,

will be at the league grounds in Ka-

the st. Louis alumni and the Oahu Col

between the Marines and combined
military. Certainly some good base
ball should be evolved out of this ar
rangement.

The Healinas are up against it for a

fall back on one of their old racers. 1t
appears that they sent the boat to

some reason unknown nothing has
been done on it. 1t is now probably
too late to get the craft in shape for
the match spin.
