To
ARRANGE A
CUP RACE
Honolulu Delegate Here to
HurI Challenge at Cham
pion Alameda Crew

The Pacific Association of Amateur
Oarsmen will hold a special session
tonight to meet A. B. Kroll Of the
Hawaiian Rowing association. who
has come here to take up the matter
of race for the challenge trophy
won by the Alameda club last year at
Honolulu
The trophy was presented for COM
petition by the Hawaiian association
for six cared barges, and the Alameda
crew went to the islands and won the
cup after an exciting contest by half
boat length. Since then there has
been no race for the cup and the Ha-
waiians have sent a special repre-
sentative here to make arrangements
for another race.
The fact that the race is for six
cared boats has been the stumbling
block. The six Dared barges are used
in the islands, but locally fours are
the only boats used. The cup was
given originally by the Hawaiians,
and they had a passing idea that their
crews would be able to win the race
and keep the trophy in Honolulu.
At the meeting tonight the question
of whether the race shall be fours or
skies will be discussed at length and
the Hawaiian association will be
asked to draft deed of gift which
will properly cover all the conditions
under which the race will be rowed
in the future.

RUSSELL. IS
EASY FOR
RIVERS

NEW ORLEANS. Oct. 29.--Joe Riv-
ers of Los Angeles stepped into the
ring against frankie Russell of this
city last evening and hammered the
local lad all over the ring for eight
cut of the 10 rounds. Russell was con-
the south before the battle, but now
they admit that he is not in the class
with the Los Angeles lad
Rivers seemed to be full of pep and
opponent. He foored the southern lad
three times in the second round with
hard overland right and left swings
to the jaw. Once Russell stayed down
for the count Of seven, and he rose to
his feet very wobbly. Rivers was a
bit overanxious, otherwise he would
have scored knockout.
Russell did not seem to have chance
after. the second. He was afraid Of the
wallops which the Mexican aimed at
him, and he spent the major part of
his time in the next three rounds in
holding on in order to prevent Rivers
from flooring him again. Rivers did
practically all OF the clean boxing and
displayed willingness to mix things
at every opportunity.
There was little action from that
time till the final period, when the
local boy came out of his semitrance
stood toe to toe with Rivers and ap-
parently outslugged him. They were
hammering away at each other when
the final bell sounded, but the squirt
which Russell made came too late, for
Rivers already had won the battle by
a wide margin.
