EMBERS of the Olympic Club and sportsmen who will be so fortunate as to witness the final boxing contests of the tournament in the Olympic zymnasium next Wednesday evening will see a championship bout be- tween “Jack” McDonald, the amateur champion middle-weight boxer of California, and E. Johnson, the champion middle-weight of Oregon. The Oregonian is a stanch representative of the Multnomah- Athletic Club of Portland, Oregon, and has a rvecord of many clever performances in the ring which has won him a host of friends and admirers, many of whom will be pres- ent to cheer him on to victory on Wednesday evening. McDonald is a powerful lad, who seems to enjoy hard punching. “Jack” is considered by expert Judges of boxing to be the best middle-weight in the country, not excepting pro- fessionals, and in €ase he succeeds in whipping the champion of the Northwest he will be ready to meet the best amateur that New York or in fact any East- ern city can produce. s A GOLFER'S PARADISE | First Open Regatta of the Season Will| Team Matches Have Been Arranged Anglers Who Have Taken the Game | Yachts of the San Francisco Fleet of | compc following the of the council after the elec- ous > councilors will elect from their 'nd | nUmber a captain, a vice captain and a r and | Secretary treasurer.

The fishes N be en by trolling fi a sailboat. It ap- rs that the bass is an cxceedingly shy sh and will da from the slight | est noise or splash, consequently a row boat is not recommended for this kind of sport. | ‘The fishes are exceedingly plentiful in the vicinity of Point Richmond and Red | Rock, and several large bass have been | caught by the gentlemen already ‘men- | tioned during the past month. A large spoon spinning at least fifty yards from the boat and tolerably deep in the | r proved a very succe lur . gan contends that line must | be kept on the fish when it strikes nd that the least slack during the time the fish is making a fight for liberty will | prove tal to the angler. The doctor lost eral fish while trolling for ba s, but ucceeded, however, in landing quite few “‘whoppers.” Local anglers who in quest of sport can now find the pastime they have been so long anticipat- ing by engaging a good sized sailboat and paving a visit' to Point Richmond and Red Rock. Anglers and sportsmen will be delighted to learn that the popular sportsman and all-round good fellow, John H. Sammi of this city he a sportsmen ty: and county will have cause to rejoice, as there e none among the handlers of the gun and the rod in the State who have a bet- ter and more extensive knowledge of the fish and game question than the gentle- man named. Protection to fish and game will be Samm{’s fight first, last and all the time. His appointment is earnestly de- sired by those who have an interest es- pecially in the welfare of the game birds and animals of the State, which, like the buffalo, are fast cisappearing. The secretary of the Santa Catalina Island Tuna Club, F. V. Rider, sends the | following communication to the eporting | editor of The Call, which is conclusive | evidence that the 'anglers of Southern California are strongly in favor of pro- sctioh to game fishes. The writer says: 2 Club will give an open rod and reel fishing tournament at its fishing grounds, ta Cata and, California, beginning with ng of the leaping tuna season, May 1, uing until September 1, when thirty more prizes in all classes will be awarded. The object of the tournament is to foster and encourage rod and reel fishing, thus securing better sport, and to prevent the exc o waste me fishes that is a result of un- sportsmanlike methods. In his annual report to the club the presi- dent will say t affords me much pleasure to report that as a result of the efforts and example of the Tuna Club and its members unsportsmaniike methods have to a large extent been elimi- nated from these ers. When a few years ago one fisherman would by trolling with two or three hand lines bring in forty or fitty yel- lowtails, sea bass, etc., magnificent fish, rang- ing from fifteen up to fifty pounds, which were often towed out into the bay and thrown away, the same person will now, by using a light rod, be satisfled with six or eight, and as each fish taken with ‘the rod plays for twenty minutes or more, the sport is greatly increased. The professional boatmen have heartily co-operated in this work and now use the lightest tuna, yellowtail and rock bass rods, lines, the reckless, wanton waste of game fish is rapidly becoming a thing of the past, a change so marked that the members (f the Tuna Club deserve the warmest congratulations from lovers of true sport and humanitarians the world over."” The officers of the club are: Charles F.
