GLOVES WILL FLY
THICK AND FAST
Red Watson and Louis Rees
Head Four Round Carnival
At Pavilion Rink Tonight

The padded mitts are going to fly
thick and fast this evening at the
Pavilion rink, when a flock of the
ambitious young four FOUNDERS will
step lively for the edifcation OF the
fans. The main performers are Red
Watson and Louis Rees, who now
loom up as two of the best light
weights in this section of the coun-
try.
Watson rules a strong favorite over
the Los Angeles boy. and his past rec
ord justifies the odds of 10 to which
are being laid on his chances of
bringing home the victory. He has
the speed and the punch, and. better
still, the experience. while his op-
ponent must depend almost wholly
upon his fighting spirit and his game
ness to carry him through
The best of them have tackled
Rees during the last year, yet none
could do him serious damage. He can
take the gan and come back for more
Of 1t, and he never has been konwn
to back up. This will be the real
chance of his career, for IL he does
happen to get away with the auburn
haired slugger he VIII be rated as the
olAc bSSl Oct Oh Lne local llShIWe1gnlS.
The bout ought to be a hummer
Watson always sets the pace when he
steps into the ring. AS a rule he
opens up with both hands and keeps
on swinging away till he lands few
of his ripping punches. If Rees can
weather the storm OF the first couple
of rounds the fans are bound to wit
ness the old time slambang finish,
with possible knockout.
IT Is to be hoped that Eddie Miller
and Kid Bertelson, the old rivals In
the bantam weight division. will set
tie their long standing differences this
time. They have hooked up on four
different occasions and each meeting
resulted In a draw. Miller Is by far
the better boxer, but Bertelson is
rough, tough and aggressive and al
ways dangerous. He has the punch,
too, but 1t is question if he will be
able to land on Miller.
Tommy Mccarthy. the Chicago well
ter weight, is going to make his local
debut against Johnny MCCARTHY. pride
OF the Bricklayers' union. Johnny is
one of those rough and tumble fighters.
Nobody knows how good Tommy is.

ing Portola week. Both men appar-
emily are satisfied with the terms
which Promoter Jim Coffroth has Of
fered them, and all that is left is the
mere formality of signing the artf-
cles. They probably will weigh in at
15s pounds, which is regarded as the
official middle weight limit.
Both C1abby and Petroskey are
smaller men than McAllister. Petros-
key has done most OF his fighting at
15S pounds and SO has Clabby, accord
ing to the eastern reports. There
fore they should not have any trouble
in coming to terms over the weight
question.
Clabby injured his right arm Sc
verely when ne fought Sailor Grande

advised him to pursue this course, and

mountains of Shasta the tall Olympic

Big Bob ought to be a real sensa-
tion back there. He has everything e
that goes to make a successful ten
rounder With all his speed and clev-
erness and the clean break, which is
Just to his liking. MeAllister figures
to make the rough fellows like Klaus

in the short distance events. Any
how, the game is worth taking a
chance at, so Bob has decided 1t Is the

HILL To REFEREE
BIG RUGBY CAME
Famous Australian Expert

Billy Hill. the famous Australian
Rugby expert, will referee the big

This announcement was made yes

Donald of the University of Cali

fornia Rugby union.
Hill officiated in the contest last
year, under conditions which could
not have been worse, and made such
a remarkably good Job that It was
natural that both Stanford and Cali
fornia wanted his services for the
coming year.
Donald was empowered by both uni
versities to send cable TO Hill last

yesterday afternoon.
The referee question has more or
less been a stumbling block to the
two universities for years past With
the unanimous choice of Hill. the one
big impediment in the preliminary
arrangements for the game has been
removed.
The Rugby union last night ap-
pointed Joe Hickey as chairman, with

SCOTS DIARY TELLS OF
GREAT BRAVERY-MRS.
London, Feb. 11.-With Capt.
Robert F. Scott and his four
brave. companions, who reached
the south pole, only to perish on
their return within a few miles of
safety, marched the spirit of Eng
land, which has carried the flag
and civilization to the outposts of
the earth.
Amundsen, the Norwegian, had
reached the pole a month before
Scott. 1t was a bitter blow to the
Briton, but he gave all credit to
his rival.
The spirit that has led other
EngIishmen to give up their lives
to open the way in new lands
stands out in the one short con-
GLIDING sentence in his record,
scrubbed with half frozen fingers
as he lay in the shelter tent that
was his tomb, II miles from Nc
Murdo bay and safety:
4 do not regret this journey,
which has shown that English
men can endure hardships, help
one another, and meet death with
as great a fortitude as in the
pas"
Those significant words have
sent a thrill through all England.
In the faces of the thousands
gathered before the bulletin
boards there is sadness, but there
was an almost involuntary

physical courage.
They knew they were to die.
They had reached the pole. 1t
would have been easy for them
to omit mention of finding evil
dence of Amundsen's explora-
ton. There would have been
quetsion of his reliability. An
other Cook-Peary tangle would
have resulted.
But all credit was given to the
Norwegian for his discovery.
Petty Officer Evans, the strong
est man in the party, fell and was
injured. Weeks of delay were
caused on the backward march.
If the other four had deserted
Evans they would have won
through. And no one would
ever have known.
Evans knew this. He pleaded
with his superiors to save them
selves. But they struggled slow
ly back, bringing him with them.
Then Evans died.
The remaining quartette press
ed on, striving to reach their base
of supplies before the pitiless an
arctic winter gripped them in a
death clutch.
Capt. Oates weakened under
the strain. The little company
went into camp. Oates grew
weaker. He realized that he was
a fatal handicap to his compan-
ions.

KEEP The BUNS AND
THIEVES OUT OF TOWN

Rodeo week is going to see big
crowd in Elko and already the
buns. hoboes and crooks from all
points of the campas are heading
this way. Constables Fernald and
Sisco for the village of Elko are
closely watching all incoming
trains on both the Western and
Southern Pacific and the buns are
told that this climate is particular
ly hard on the hoboes. With much
tact the local officers have handled
the buns and hustled the most Of
them out Of Elko without the ne
cessity Of arresting them and then
causing the county considerable ex-
pense. Sheriff Harris and his men
are right on the job every minute
and between the village and county
officers it is certain that few buns
or crooks will be able to be here
during the Rodeo Week.
