DICK CULLEN
IN AUSTRALIA

In a letter from Dick Cullen from
Perth, West Australia, the San Fran
cisco boxer sends an account of his
victory over AL Morey, the champion
Of that country. Dicks victory now
makes him the champion of West
Australia.
From the account of the battle sent
on by Cullen, Dick had a desperate
struggle and won the decision after
twenty fierce rounds. 1t the eigh.
teenth round Cullen knocked Morey
down twice and he looked a winner
over the knockout route, but Morey
came back and finished up strong.
There is now talk of matching Cul-
len and Michigan for the Championship
OF Australia, but last accounts say
the boys could not come together on
the matter of weight. Michigan wants
l4O pounds, while Cullen is holding
off for 1873 pounds. 1t is said thaC
If Michigan and Cullen do not come
together that the latter will shortly
sail for the United States to tackle
the American lighweights.

CALIFORNIA; SUPERIORITY IN Tennis

The Chicago News last week gave
Mclaughlin, Bundy and California
tennis players in general this send
off
Those who saw his game in the
East last year and this spring and
who were at Onwentsia Saturday to
see the Hayes-McLoughlin match, de-
clared the California youngster was
better than ever before. Bundy has
not been seen in singles this year, but
his practice work with Mclaughlin in
the doubles shows he is in rare form.
Mclaughlin and Bundy are mas
tiers of a game that appeals to the gal
leries. Both are hard hitters and are
capable of executing brilliant plays,
the kind which bring spontaneous
bursts of applause from the specta-
tors. Mclaughlin particularly is given
to spectacular plays, and the ease with
which he executes them gives the be-
lief that he always has something in
reserve.
Mclaughlin has a little the ad-
vantage of Bundy in build, for the
younger man is taller and has a bet
ter reach, which gives him more OPP
portunity to reach difficult shots.
Bundy, however, is an aggressive play
er and his network is uneXcelled. So
far Bundy always has had the edge on
Mclaughlin, and in the majority of
contests in which they have met has
come out victorious. Neither, how

The match between the latter and
johnny Mccarthy was called off owing
to a recent change in the naval rules
governing athletic competitions in the
Pacific fleet, providing that no person
or persons of the fleet be allowed to
box for private clubs.
Battling" Robinson, colored, chal-
lenged all corners when his ship was

the welter-weight championship of the

crack.
He recently lost a very unpopular

The boys aboard the California are

man was robbed of the decision and
are anxious to match him with the

ping a football team into shape. The
cruiser has the men, the spirit and the
opportunity for good training and they
should be capable of giving the local
teams hard rub during their visit
to Honolulu, providing a game or two
can be arranged.
The Nebraska took up football seri
ously in 1908 and defeated nearly
every team along the Pacific Coast

playing all the year, as these men
do, it is little wonder their game over
shadows that of the men in this part
of the country. There is not a week
in the year in California when the
men cannot get some practice and in
consequence they always are in fine
fettle. They do not get stale" how
ever, for the game is taken as a pas
time to a greater extent where it is
practicable all the year round and the
average excellence among the mass of
players is higher there than here.
There are several things notice
able about the California game, and
one of the most prominent is the CUT
ting. Almost every ball is cut and
the services all are twists and REVERSED
twists. Only once in while is al
straight ball employed, and contestu
ants get so into the habit of expectinnt
queer bounces that a straight ball il t
as deceptive as a cut. N
"One reason for this is that thty
courts on the Pacific Coast are SIT
much faster than in this division one
the country that the cut is absolutelsa
necessary. Concrete courts are thu
regular thing in San Francisco and tht
neighborhood and these are 100 pei,
cent. faster than turf courts even,
when the latter are in as good condt
ton as are those at Onwentsia." q

off at the meeting to be held under
A. A. L. auspices before the end of
September, being one of the compul-
sorry numbers on the program OF
course should there be no entries the
event would fall through, but if anyone
is thinking of taking a shy at the race
it is high time that he started worl,

While the mile walk does not figure
on the list of events to be contested
at the annual A. A. U. meeting it is
probable that such an event will be
put on the program in order that the
list of local records may be made as
complete as possible. A fifty-yard dash
is also likely to be run for the same
reason.
After the field and track meet the
walkers will begin to turn their at,

Interest in the running game is
picking up and the ten-mile relay to
be run on Labor Day between Fitz-
gerald and the Observation-Disclosures
combination is beginning to attract
attention.
Fitzgerald was out at the athletic
park yesterday afternoon but did only
light work, running three miles in the
dawdling time of twenty-five minutes.
He evidently only intended to take Il
breather.
The clever little Canadian is looking
well and says that he is feeling fine
and expects to be fit to run for a
kingdom a week from next Monday.
Fitzgerald has received permission
to train on Alexander Field and appre-
ciates this very much for the COINS
is incomparably better and then there
is a bath handy after the spin, a
luxury unheard of at the bare, barren
and dusty athletic park.
