To BE 4 REFEREE

It is likely, indeed, that Willie
Ritchie, lightweight champion of the
world. will appear in the role of a
referee tomorrow evening at the Pa
Tvilion rink when One Round Hogan
attempts his comeback act against
Tommy Mcfarland. They have been
after Willie to take the job and he has
promised to give them a definite an
swer this evening.
The local fans have not seen much
OF their little champion since he so
successfully defended his title against
Joe Rivers on July T. He has been
out Of town most OF the time and since
his return he has been so busy an
swering kilograms and making dates
with promoters that the fans have
missed him. even at the weekly fights
Ritchie and Hogan used to be old
time rivals, but Hogan does not hold
anything against the lightweight
king any more. He is willing to for
give him and commence all over
again. Ritchie beat Mcfarland once.
but, like his opponent. little Tommy
has about made up his mind to let
bygones be bygones and won't object
to the champion as the third man in
the ring.
Both Hogan and Mcfarland look
to be in good shape for their battle.
The one time terror of the four
FOUNDERS works out well in the gym
nasium. but whether he will be able
to display any of his former speed
and punching ability in a regular
fight is different question. How
ever, he is going to try his hardest
and he promises to give the fans a
good run.
Mcfarland is lighting in his very
best form right now, so they need
not worry about him. Tommy is a
tricky, crafty little fellow, who knows
every angle of that old four round
game. He is not a knocker out, but
he is a damaging puncher and es-
pecially effective at infighting. None
of them ever put anything over on
him in four rounds
Next in line are Johnny O'Leary.
probably the best feather weight ever
turned out of the northwest, and
Babe Picato, the speedy little fellow
from Los Angeles. This looks like a
very even battle and the fans are at a
loss TO gs>e the shade one way or the
other. although O'Leary is the more
aggressive and he also carries around
the better punch
The other bouts are as follows:

STANF ORD EAGER
FOR ALL BLACKS

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Sept. IS.
Stanford is anxiously awaiting the
arrival of the All Black New Zea-
land Rugby team that is coming to
this country next month. The most
impatient man on the Stanford cam
pus is Danny B. Carroll, the little
freshman who first came to this land
with the Waratahs last year. Car
roll knows many of the players on
the team that is now on its way
here. The team, says Carroll, is a.
truly representative one and is the
first to make the American trip from
the islands since the invasion by
the All Blacks in 1905.
The team has been selected by a
committee of the New Zealand Rugby
union from the different Rugby
unions of the island, one in each
province. Before leaving for this
country they play a series of three
games with Australia. They are to
be managed by +. w Mason, a col
lege man from the Otago university.
The probable captain Will be A. Me-
Donald a member of the All Black
team that toured England and the
United States in 1905 and 1906
Tim Wylie. a member of the Wara-
tab team, which was here year ago,
will be with the visitors. OF the other
men personally known TO Carroll he
has to say: "E. Roberts Of yelling
ton is a son of Harry Roberts. a
member of the famous 1884 All
Blacks. F. Mitchinson has repre-
sented New Zealand since 1907 and
is a powerful center three quarters.
Cuthiil of the Otago university made
q reputation for himself this season
in Sydney on the three-quarter line
while playing with a picked team
from the combined universities of
New Zealand. Stohl is a wonderful
place kicker"
The following team is expected to
arrive about October 3. The names in
the brackets are those of the pro-
vincial Rugby unions with which the
player is affiliated: Backs-McKenzi
hutchinson (Wellington), Stohl, r.

Stanford Freshmen

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Sept. IS.
Stanford's freshman hopes were given
a severe setback yesterday afternoon
when they were defeated by the Palo
Alto high school Is, the 1912 A A. L.
champions.
1t was Palo Altos game all the
way through. The victory of the
preparatory school lads yesterday
strengthens their claims as contend
ers for league championship honors.
Although defeated, Coach Floyd
Brown is not discouraged with the
1917 men.
The playing of Weeks, Boulware.

backdeld that can be depended upon.
