Although no definite plans have as yet been made for the organization of the club, the matter has been given full con- slderation by Corbett and the preliminary steps have been taken. ‘When interviewed last night Corbett said: "It is true that I have been consid- ering the formation of a boxing club and have undertaken the first steps toward its consummation.

One of the most appreciated of the many branches of philanthropic work carried on { by the National Red Cross Soclety for | the benefit and elevation of the American soldiers is the free distribution of ‘read- ing matter. This is true particularly in respect to that portion of the army in the Philippines, where the soldiers are de- prived of almost everything which tends 1o make life pleasant. Thousands of the ationed in remote towns and for months at a time hear nothing from the outside world. In such Jocalities the men are eager to get hold of reading matter of any Kind and the Red Society has been answering this want, to the great pleasure and profit of the recipients. of books and papers, hgw- ever, which was so generously given by the public in answer ‘o the call of the so- | elety last December, has been almost en- | tirely exhausted and considerable solici- tude is felt lest this most worthy charity may not be continued. | ,Jt is earnestly requested, therefore, by the members und friends of the soclety that the public assist by contributions of | suitable reading matter, in the way of | papers, magazines and books, or by do- | nations.

In the opinion of Oxford athletes none of the four extra events is desirable, part- ly bhecause they are quite’ unaccustomed to two of them, while they consider ‘welght-throwing unattractive and the yard sprint rous on a round course with corners. e main difficulty, how- ever, accordi to officials of the Oxford University Athletic: Club, whe were seen by a rcpresentative of the Assoclated Press, are the July date and financial con- slderations.

The scheduled ladles' singles tourna- ment on the Califorria Tennis Club court was played yesterday, but owing to the prevailing wind the entry list was meager. Only three ladles perticipated, but they were the best on both sides of the bay. Miss Miriam Hall, the coast champion, representing San Francisco, carried off the first honors. The second prize fell to Mrs. Haslett of Alameda, who defeated Miss Emma Hunter, also of Alameda. On account of the small entry the tourna- ment was played on tlie round-robin plan. The first match of the day was between Miss Hall and Mrs. Haslett and was won by the former In straight sets—-1, 7-5. The next match was between Miss Em- ma Hunter and Miss Miriam Hall and the former fell an easy vietim to her more skiliful opponent. It was thought that Miss Hunter would make the champion put forth her best efforts to win, but the outcome was never in doubt, as Miss Hall wem 61 &1 e last match of the day was between Mrs. Haslett and Miss Hunter, and the fact that both the ladies claim the cham- plonship of Alameda County added con- siderably to the interest of the match.

HAMPTON OUTCLASSES TWO CLEVER PLAYEBS James and Cartwright Lose to the Coast Champion in an Excit- ing Contest. If any doubt existed in the minds of the members of the Olympic Club that Al Hampton was not entitled to the title of champion handball player of the coast they were removed last n!a;u when he defeated George James and Willlam Cart- wright in a specially arranged match. He outclassed his opponents with the same margin as a thoroughbred would a “sell- ing-plater.” Hampton was simply invin- cible and had he exerted himself thers is no doubt that he could have prevented James and Cartwright from doing as well as they did. James played a splendid game. He lou¥ht for every point and did remarkabiy well in “killing” the ball. Cartwright, however, did not play with that judgment and skill for which he is noted. He over- reached himself time and again in his effort to return the ball. Cartwright and James took the first game without much effort, as Hampton was not then exerting himself. In the second game Hamrlon turned the tables and won out handily. Hampton's killing in this set was brilllant work. In the thinl game Hampton again captured the honors. He used an Eastern that was as lively as a tennis ball and he sent it out to the backwall with great speed. Hnm‘;‘mn again took things easy in the fourth game and James and Cartwright won out. Both sides had two games to their credit and all went in to win the final game. It was a grand struggle on the part of James and Cartwright to avert defeat. but their efforts were unavailing. Hampton won out easily. Following are the scores: Al Hampton George Jame: wright Refs snan s ns N8 17 N -3 r—George Knell. ——— Woodland Signs McCabe.
