BUSY DA \ 6
FOR St Ar
ATHLETES

The All-American track and field
team, which is now on its way to
New Zealand, has a long list of meets
to participate in, the itinerary cover
ing New Zealand from south to north
and then a five day steamer trip to
Australia for more meets in the land
of the kangaroo.
The team will arrive in Wellington
December 4 and will be publicly well
coined by the highest officials of the
country. The next morning the party
will leave for town called Invercar-
Zealand. and the first meet will be
held at this place December 13- The
men will have eight full days train
ing on the track.
Many of the meets will be more in
the nature of exhibitions. Sprinting
is the big item with the New Zealand
ers and Australians, while most of the
other events on the program are not
universally used throughout the coun-
try. George Parker. the sprinter, will
have competition at every place
meet is scheduled, but there are only
a few points where he will meet stin
opposition.
Roland Opie is the best sprinter in
New Zealand. with a record of 4-5
for the 100, but as he has been out OF
the game for nearly two years the
New Zealand public is anxious to see
if the record holder can come back
when he meets parker. There are a
number of 10 2-5 men in New Zealand
and a splattering OF good To- 1-5 boys,
and if Parker gets into right shape he
should not have any trouble in dis
posing of IS per cent of the antipo-
dean sprinters
The New Zealand dates as announced
by the New Zealand A. A. U. follow:
December 13. at Tnvercargin; Decem-
Der 16, at Christchurch; December 90
at Dunedin; December IS and 27, New
Zealand championships at wellington;
January 1, at Masterton: January 3, at
Wanganuf; January Z, at Palmerston
North; January 10, at Auckland; jan
uary Il, at Rotorua; January II. at
Hamilton.
On January 10 the team leaves New
Zealand for Australia, where another
series of meets will be entered. The
big feature of the tour will be the
teams appearance in the Australasian
championships at Melbourne January
26. After this meet the boys are
scheduled to go over the water TO
Tasmania. where meets will be held
at Launceton and Hobart. Other
meets will be held at Sydney and
probably Newcastle, but the definite
dates have not been set up to the
present

FLIP FLOP FRANKIE
MAKES SHOW OF HIS
OLD RIVAL, MCCARTHY
By WILLIAM ]. SLATTERY

| he stood a chance of knocking McCar-
thy out The bricklayer looked
groggy and wobbly. but Burns evi-
IDENTIFY had great respect for McCar-
thy's haymaker, as he did not try to
whip over the finishing punch.
MCCARTHY LANDS SWINGS
The Oakland boy was just as clever
on the defense as he ives in attacking
his clumsy opponent. He covered up,
blocked and sidestepped in manner
that made them all wonder. He had
the better of the inflghting. shooting
rights and lefts into McCarthy's body
every time they came together.
This sort of thing continued for IL
rounds. In the twelfth Mccarthy was
lucky enough to land right and a
left swing to the jaw, which sent
Burns back. Macs supporters thought
he had chance and yelled for him to
go in. Mac tried hard enough, but
Burns just kept covering up and jab-
bing away. and at the finish of the
round he really had the better of the
mixup. Mccarthy simply did not know
how to go about his task.
In the thirteenth and fourteenth Nc
Carthy again rocked Burns with his
awkward swings. Some of them
thought that Burns looked worried.
but if he did he was only stalling. He
always managed to recover and take
the play away from his opponent. Nc
Carthy tried hard and let 1t go at
that.
The bricklayer's left eye was all but
closed at the finish. His nose was
badly cut up and his face generally
disfigured. Still he kept on fighting.
and he was loudly cheered for his
gameness-poor consolation for him.
Now they VIII be watching to see
what Burns does the next time eh
starts. He's the champion of all in
and-outers, but he can box and he
1 can look out for himself in the tight
places, especially against third raters.
ROMEO STOPS REILLY
The first preliminary between the
| bantams, Joe Reilly and Kid Romeo.
was the best battle of the evening. 1t
was stopped by Lieutenant Helms at
the end of the nth. after Romeo had
knocked Reilly down with a hard
right to the jaw. and Reilly regained
1 his feet and was still fighting at the
bell. Doctor Koenigstein was so busy
watching the fighters that he did not
notice the command of the police off,
Ger to stop the mill.
! Eddie Webber. feather weight.
/ substituted for Dummy InOmdS
against Dick Kendall and the latter
won the six round decision. Webber
showed boxing ability. but was in no
condition.
The six round mfxup between Kid
Exposito and Jack Gillis was de-
cIared draw, although Exposfto had
a lead in FIVE of the rounds. 1t was
more of a wrestling match than
boxing contest, and neither man dis
played any form.

CHARLEY MITCHELL ILL

stories have come from abroad from
time to time that Charlie Mitchell, ia
nous boxing champion of England.
who gave John L. Sullivan one Of his
hardest battles, is quite Ill. There
annears = to be some truth in them
aftNr ali. A letter Just received
from a man who knows the English
fighter we'll and who visits with him
frequently, says:
"Have just returned from a visit to
Charlie Mitchell and he is still in poor
health. I doubt IL he is long for this
world. It seems to me that all Of the
old time fighters are going on this
side In fact. there are few left.
Charlie is still the cheerful fellow
he always was, and hate to see him
GO but the chances appear to be
against him.

frankie Burns of Oakland performed
another one of his famous fiiphops
last evening at the Pavilion rink. He
5abbed and cuffed Johnny Mccarthy
all over the ring for 20 rounds and
won so far that the crowd could see
the finish of the Mission bricklayer 10
rounds before Referee Toby Irwin
raised the transbay boys hand sky
ward as a token of victory.
Burns showed them everything but
the knockout wallop. He was clever
and fast, cool and determined. His
judge of distance was unerring, and
as for his gameness-well, that was
not put to the test at all, because Nc
Carthy did not land often enough to
do any harm at all.
The remarkable display of form on
the part of Burns startled and sur
prised all the followers of the game.
Only three short weeks ago this same
made a miserable four round attempt
against the same'man he so easily de-
feated last evening. Now they are
scratching their heads and wondering
what frankie will do the next time he
starts
One round was almost a repetition
of the other. Barring the thirteenth,
fourteenth. eighteenth and nineteenth,
when Mccarthy put over a few lucky
swings, the battle was a Burns affair
through and through. There never
was a moment when the Oaklander
looked tired or weary or in the slight
est danger. Mccarthy seemed made
to order for him and he fought ac-
cordingly.
BURNS TAKES LEAD
The bricklayer is through, so far as
main events figure. He simply dom [
possess the class, and he does not be-
long with the higher ups. He is strong
and game and willing, but we must
stop right here in singing his praises.
He can't box, nor can he follow UP an
advantage.
The showing of Burns last evening
shows one of two things: either he
pulled TO Mccarthy in their former
battle. or else he was not in shape
Everybody who witnessed last nights
affair viii agree on this. They Were
laying TO l on him then Last nigh:
ii was even money and take your pick
And many a wise one took a ride on
Mccarthy at that. all Of which shows
that there are tricks in every game
and boxing is not excepted.
When the men stepped into the ring,
shook hands and squared off, Burns
began to pick away al Mccarthy S
nose with his left He did this very
systematically for ever so many
rounds. There was little or no come
back on the part of Mccarthy. He
was unable 10 penetrate the guard of
his opponent. and his swings gener-
ally were wasted on the air.
Now and then Burns would vary
the monotony by putting over one of
his famous right crosses As early as
the fourth round 1t did look as though

0arSmen Decide to
Hang Up Valuable
Perpetual Trophy

The special committee appointed by
the California Association OF Amateur
oarsmen met yesterday and drafted a
special deed OF gift which is to
cover the competition for the asso-
citation perpetual challenge shield each
year.
The perpetual challenge shield was
ordered purchased by the association
few months ago and the valuable
trophy is now ready for delivery to
the governing body. The deed COM
mittee has drafted set Of conditions
which will be presented to the next
meeting of the association for rati-
fication.
The provisions Of the deed stipu-
late that the trophy is never to be-
come the permanent property OF any
club. but 10 only to be held for one
year. The trophy is to be competed
for by the clubs rowing In the senior
four cared barge race, or IL at any
time the association should make the
championship race an eight or six
oar, there is provision which makes
the trophy the emblem OF superiority
In whatever class the association
votes As tno DIG race OF the year,
but 1t never must be presented for
anything lower than a four cared
event.
The club winning the trophy will
have to give bond for its safe keep
ing. Another point makes 1t impera-
tive with the club holding the trophy
to deliver 1t to the secretary Of the
association at least three days before
the big race each year.
The Hawaiian Rowing association,
which presented the mid Pacific cha1-
lenge cup now held by the Alameda
club. has been waiting for the local
deed of gift on which to draft the
deed to cover the competition for the

NJ T ARLAND
LEADS AS
A BOXER

NEW YORK, Nov. 26.-Charles White,
the veteran boxing referee and one of
the keenest judges of boxing In Amer
lea today. in an interview said that
Packey Mcfarland of Chicago Is the
best man in the ring today.
'Packey knows more about the finer
points of boxing and fighting than any
other man whom I have seen since
Joe Cans was in the heyday Of his
youth" said White. II have watched
him perform time and again, and he
uses more of the real inside work of
boxing than any of them.
His defense is practically impene-
trable. and If he elects to lie back and
stall. which he rarely does, 1t Is be-
yond the power of any man to hit him
or feint him into leaving an opening.
With Mcfarland boxing seems to be a
rare mixture of instructive ability.
He moves around in a bout more
than the average spectator thinks, but
sliding, that no one but the man who
is boxing him appreciates just how
often Packey shifts the range. More
over, he moves to either side with
equal ease and swiftness, and so he
can avoid punch which many an
other man would be forced to take.
ION the attack Mcfarland shows at
his best. He is a straight puncher
and fights after the style of Cans and
other famous fighting men of the last
decade. Coming out of club where
Packey had met some opponent. !
heard a man say.
"I can't say just how he does it.
He never seemed to move his hands
more than FIVE inches
PAcKEY SELDOM SWINGS
That is just why Mcfarland gets
the results. He starts his blows
right from position and never pulls
his hands back to telegraph as 1t Is
called in the ring. This style of
straight hitting enables him to beat
the average fighter to the punch.
Seldom, IL ever, has Mcfarland
been known to swing a punch, but he
gets along better without swinging.
SO would other boxers IL they realized
1T. Every swing 1eaves an opening
for counter, and more men are
knocked out after missing swings
than in any other way.
New York enthusiasts had a
chance to see Mcfarland really ex-
tended the night he met Matt Wells
| in Madison Square garden. Packey.
boxing as only he can. battered Wells.

Of Great Britain, from one corner of
the ring to the other. Mcfarland on
