Hyde never displayed better form
than in easily defeating H. D. Bulkley
his southpaw rival from the Columbia
club, by a score of 15-7, I'D, while
Coburn sped along in "high speed" in
oyerthrowing D. F. Phelps, Harvard
clubmate, by the tally Of 6-15, 1910.
15-5. However, the most sensational
match of the tourney was furnished by
Onativia and DR.. II. R. Mixsell, Prince
ton club, in which the former won after
three set games by the close scores Of
17-6, 14-17, 1913.
The Onativia- -Mixsell match attracts
a large gallery of spectators and the
tussle developed into the longest drawn
out of the series. Onativia triumphed
through his greater staying powers and
his uncanny ability to thwart the hard
est playing Of his rival at critical mo
ments. Mixsell played his most brilt-
liant game of the season ard only suf-
fered at the end by becoming tired.
Warns to Work Quickly
Mixsell warmed to his work more
quickly than his opponent in the open
ing game and gained a three point lead.
He managed to retain this advantage
for the greater part of the game, al
though Onativia, relying principally on
a Ground the court" game and lightning
"kills" to the back corners, pressed him
hard. The Harvard man launched OUT
into a terrific drive with Mixsell only
within two points of victory, and play
ing steadily and smashing violently
set the game at 13--all. In the extra
set game, it was a hard struggle fer
New-York tribune., 1918-02-05

every point, with Mixsell losing it on
his own errors.
Onativia played determnedly tn
clnch the match in two straight issues
but found his Tiger opponent swing.
ing along stronger than ever. The Har.
ward man kept the ball spinniny
around the court low, and handled the
intricate 'cross-court shots of his ri,al
in clever fashion, with Remarkable
"gets." Mixsell set the game at 14-all
and. when Onativia momen.arily lapsed
into siesta of erraticness, collected
his three necessary aces in row To
win.
Mixsell had the match snatched from
his grasp when within only two points
of victory in the third game by
the early hands Mixsell scored often
on placement shots and returns to the
corner that gave him a comfortable
lead. Onativia was still going in his
best form, but was guilty Of spasmodic
spells of inaccuracy that cost him many
aces. However, when trailing 13 to 9.
he rallied brilliantly.
Forcing the pace still faster, he made
the most of 'cross-court shots and
"kills" that gave him four aces in
row, thus setting the game at 13-all,
He did not let up on his tiring rival,
and, collecting five aces, pulled out the
closest game he has engaged in this
season.
Hyde was not pressed to eliminate
Bulkley. The crafty Crimson star
brought into play his right hand wall
"kill" often against his southpaw op-
ponent, and Bulkley had great diff
Guilty in meeting the ball squarely.
Hyde's corner-to-corner and dead" re-
turns completely baff1ed Bulkley, who
at times forced his Harvard opponent
at top speed before he could count a
point.
Coburn showed unusual steadiness in
defeating Phelps in y three-game
match. Phelps began in real business
like manner, winning the first game at
15-6, when Coburn showed a disposi-
ton to drive the bali out of court
often. However. with the start of the
second game, Coburn overcame this
erraticness, and with a change of pace
and placement shots evened the match.
Coburn was at his best in the third
game, which he won in quick fashion
by mixing up his game to deceptive
degree.

Thousands File Past Bier
OF Former Ring Champion

BOSTON, Feb. Am almost un-
broken line of men, women and chill
dren to-day and tonight passed before
the bier of John J.. Sullivan, the last
of the old guard of heavyweight pugi-
lists. In full dress the body Of the
dead champion lay in the darkened par
lor at the home of his sister Mrs. An
ME Z. Lennon, in the RoXbury district,
while relatives, friends and admirers
of the old gladiator called to gaze for
the last time on his features.
Meanwhile, final arrangements were
made for the funeral, which will be
held from ST. Paul's Church, Roxbury,
Wednesday morning. Regret was ex-
pressed at the Lennon home tonight
when word was received from Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt that he would be
unable to attend the funeral of his old
friend. because of a speaking engage
ment in Springfield Wednesday noon.
The Rev. Peter c. Quinn will officiatc
at the funeral services. Hundreds of
men prominent in the sporting world,
representatives of temperance societies
and others from far and wide sent
word that they would be present at tna
funeral.
1t was hoped that the Rev. William
A. Sunday, the evangelist, who declared
that John l.. won his greatest battle
when he gave booze the knockout"
would attend the funeral. Jake Kilrain,
the pugilist, who battlcd seventy five
rounds with Sullivan in the old days,
is also expected to be here.
Plans for a memorial for the dead
champion were being considered to-
day. but no decision as to the nature
was reached. Arthur w. Covert, Of
New York, came here to-day with a
view Of having the body of Sullivan lie
IN state at Madison Square Garden or
Carnegie Hall. but this was opposed by
Sullivan's sister, as we'll as by c. W.
Rowley, attorney and confidential ad-
wiser of Sullivan. who has charge of
tho funeral arrangements. Friends of

Boxing Notes
By FRED HAWTHORNE

Some kind friend has sent us a bale
OF newspaper clippings, in all of which
the desirability of naming Charles
Thorley, the florist, as Boxing Com
missioner is the predominant note.
We do not know Mr.. Thorley, nor
have VIC ever even bought nosegays
from his establishments, but often
have we stood in front of the plate
glass windows and shifted through the
glass at the roses and violets, the hello
trope and Johnny -jump-ups. From such
clrcumstantial evidence, we know that
Mr.. Thorley can train a rose into the
pink of condition, or pink into the
pinkest. How do VIC know? "Thc nose
knows"
The clippings sent to us mention
many reasons why Mr.. Thorlcy would
make an excellent boxing commissioner,
apart from his very evident virtues as
a citizen and business man. For one
thing, Mr.. Thorley has been interested
IN the boxing game since boyhood and
puts on the mitts several times a week
at the New York Athletic Club. He also
has speaking acquaintance with most
OF the prominent members and follow
ers of the profession and an intimate
knowledge Of the habits of the wal
loopin,g fraternity. After all, why
should not a good judge of a rose be
a good judge of boxing? For Boxing
Observation-Disclosures Thorley,
After several days spent in nten-
sive thought. during which we wrestled
in vain with phrases that ran the
gamut of SARCASM and biting repair
tee, we find ourselves stumped for a
suitable answer to this cruel blow
aimed at us by Harry Smith, who runs
a sporting column in "The San Fran
cisco Chronicle" Brother Smith takes
exception to piece we printed some
Bandit, and Gunboat Smith, and his
howl goes like this:
with Jimmy Johnston, it's anything
to keep himself and his fighters in the
foreground. Chatting of Gunboat
Smith the other day, the Boy Bandit
had the splendid cfrontery to remark
to newspaper writer's of Gotham that
the Gunner is going to be the sensa-
tion of the heavyweight ranks within
the year, and that all the Gunner needs
is experienced
"You can't beat that sort of stuff
not much"
If that's the way you feel, we don't
care, Harry Smith-so there now!

College to
Play Fordham Team

The eleven from Gallaudet COLLEGE
for Deaf Mutes, of Washington. will
meet the Fordham University football
team next season. The game, which
was announced by Cyril A. Higgins, the
Maroon football manager, will be
played on Fordham Field, on Saturday.
November 8, which is four days after
the Election Day fray with George
town. The BronXmen met the South
erners in gridiron clashes in 1914 and
1916, and triumphed on both occasions.
The "mutes" run their plays off in
series, and, having no audible signals,
force their opponents to be always on
the alert.
Maroon rooters are assured of see
ing several good games next season, as
all Of the four contests already arranged
will be played on Fordham Field.

Eighteen gunners took part in the
Garfield Monday shoot at the Travers
