Since those days things have changed

TIE GAME STAGED BY
SOPHS AND FRESHMEN

football games that has been staged on

annual battle, the result being to 0,
The freshmen were picked to be the
easy winners, having fast back field

cation in the line. The sophomore
team was made up of men who with two
exceptions had practically no football
experience.
The "fresh" seemed to have things

owing to the short quarters, failed to

after he became champion Wolgast re.

He Ranks Among Fastest Boxers.
While Murphy has battled along
through several generations of pugil-
lists, it can be said without fear of con
tradietion that he is one of the fastest
lightweights in the lists today. 1t is
the pace he sets, in fact, that enables
him to hold his own.
Those who have seen him boxing in
San Francisco know that he is not given
to backing up. Whenever the signal
to start is given little Tommy leaps
to close quarters and starts fusillade
of lifting punches, 1t is style of
fighting that forces the man attacked
to follow suit and the result is a whirl-
wind exchange which thrills the specta-
tors and at the same time proves par
ticularly trying to a principal whose
condition is not of the best.
You'd Best Beware o'Willie.
Among Ritchie's supporters there is
a disposition to believe that Murphy s
penchant for close fighting is one of
the things that will render Tommy an
easy mark for the champion.
It is an acknowledged fact that Rit-
chie's best punches are the straight
right and right cross and he is general
ly very accurate in measuring it is
thought that he will catch Murphy
tearing in and drop him.
1t may turn out that way, but if Muir
ply manages to get inside the Ritchie
right and start roofing there will be
nothing left for Richie to do but set
himself and fight likewise.
In this short-arm work there is no
telling what will happen. Wolgast used
to be thought the prince of fighters,
but everyone remembers what happened
to him in the closing rounds of his last
bout with Murphy. Ad Wolgast was
beaten to a pulp at his favorite game.
