BOXERS RAPIDLY GETTING INTO FORM FOR THE FOURTH OF JULY THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WED 1901 STHTE PLAYERS N TOURNAMENT Opening of Annual Ten- nis Championships at San Rafael Preliminary and First Round Completed on the First Day. e The first singles tournament for the championship of California began yester- day on the courts of the Hotel Rafael at San Rafasel. A slight breeze blowing throughout the day diminished the heat somewhat and the players were less dis- tressed after their matches than usual. A crowd well above the average for the first day was on hand and witnessed some | very good matches in the preliminary and | first rounds. Of the twenty men entered, | eighteen were on hand when play was | called. The winners in the first two rounds were Merle Johnson, John Hoffman, George Whitney, Harrison Dibblee, Fred Brown, R. N. Whitney, Alex Stewart and | Grant Smith. The best mateh of the day was between | ¥red Brown and Drummond MacGavin, | the two University of California men. Both players were in fine form and after playing three close sets Brown finally won | out by steadiness. In all three sets Mac- | Gavin had a lead of 2-0 and 4-2, but his opponent played a great game and won out, the score being i-5, 6-4, 8-6. George Whitney was in poar form yes- | terday, but disposed of Collier rather | handily. The score in Whitney's favor | was B-2, 6-3, 6-1. Had Collier put more ( Strokes the result might | different. Harry. Halght | &nd Chet Smith played an extremely close | match, the score in the former's favor be- | ing 7-5, 6-8, 7-5, 6-1. Smith had a good | jead in the first three sets but his op- | ponent proved to be steadier and more experienced, which enabled him to wln‘ out. Perey D. Kahn surprised everybody by | the clever game he put up. He defeated Richard Erskine 6-3, 6-1, 3-6, 7 | The first match in the preliminary round | was between Harry Dibblee and Charles | Kuehn. The latter, while suffering from &n attack of stage fright, lost the first two sets 6-0. In the third set Kuehn was | more confident and won 6-3. The fourth | set fell to Dibblee 6-3. The complete score in his favor.was 6-0, 6-0, 8-6, 6-3. | Ogden Hoffman, one of the best men in the second class several years ago, forced R. N. Whitney to play his b ame to win. The score in the latter's favor was 6-4, 75, 6-2. Merle Johnson beat John Craig of Woodland in a rather one-sided contest. The score in favor of the former was 6-2, 61 | t was thought that after Brown had disposed of MacGavin, handily, he would have little trouble in beating Harry Haight, but the latter, when once fairly started, played a terrific game. Brown | Won the first set, but in the second set Tiaight commenced 1o show his real form. | This set also went to Brown At this | stage of the game Haight, who was for- merly one of the best plavers on the coast, Zot down to work and took the next two Ects ‘easily. In the last set Haight, who is much older than his opponent, appeared 1o be worn out and the set went to Brown 6 score in the latter’s favor was | . 3-6, 6-0. | arl Gardner. & novice, who plavs for | Lowell High School, also caused a genuine | surprise by almost beating Alex Stewart of Oakland. The latter is an experienced layer, but his younger opponent made | his best foot forward to win. | This was the closest match of the day, the | score in Stewart's favor being 6-3, 4, | 8-6, 9-1. { In his match with Dibblee, Kahn with- | drew when the score was two sets to one | egainst him. Jack Hoffman and Grant Smith each won a match by default { The matches to be played to-morrow are | as follow Johnson vs. J. Hoffman, G. | Whitney vs. Dibblee, Brown vs. R. Whit- | ney and Stewart vs. Grant Smith. This Will probably bring Johnson and G. F. | Thitney together in one-half of the semi- | finals and R. N. Whitney and Grant Smith | in the other. e ENTRIES FOR THISTLE | CLUB OUTDOOR GAMES | Ve Will Strive for | in Amnual Contests. ‘ The 'entries for the Scottish Thistie Club | games. which will be held on July 4, are as follows 350-yard handicap—C.

INCE Sunday last Jack Moffatt, who will meet Gardner on the Fourth of July, has done no real training: He has just kept fit and if he can hald his present condi- tion until the afternoon of the fight he can have nothing to complain of. He says he | feels well and strong and ready and he tips the beam at 155. That makes him three pounds under the required weight, but he does not expect to be any heavier at the weighing in. he said yes- terday, “and I will be satisfied if T weigh in at 155. All I want now is to keep the ‘edge’ on until the fight. “I have done no hard work since Sun- day. Bvery morning now I take a short run and in the afternoon I punch the bag and do half an hour's gymnasium work, but 1 do no sparring. T have no need for it and a man may hurt himself at the last moment.”* Dr. Jones. the club physician, called at Moffatt's training quarters yesterday and examined his heart and lungs. He said Moffatt was all right and sound as a bell, which opinion was delivered after much listening through a =stethoscope and thumping of ribs.

Dunlap of Gilroy, has promised this county assumed a more definite shape to-day at a hearing before the Board of Supervisors upon the question of effering the franchises for sale. The entire day was taken up in discussion. All sections of the county are to be reached, the ag- gregate mileage of the system being above 10. The origihal petition had seven roads in one franchise.

The fight was stopped, however, and the decision was given to Gardner. It was supposed by many that the decision went that way because Gardner did the work, but clip- pings from New York papers that®Mof- fatt has show that it was Moffatt who did the work and further that he had Gard- ner going in the round before he broke his arm. Moffatt also has a picture taken of the arm after it had healed. The bones knitied badly and he had an X-ray phote- graph taken of the arm.

CHICAGO, July 2.—While the Stanton avenue police and Miss E. Valentine Smith, a representative of the Anti- Cruelty Scciety, stirred about to-day en- deavoring to save the life of a canine hero, Seott by name, a policeman’s bullet killed the animal. Scott was no common dog. He was a life-saver; and his death was due to his zeal in that direction. The dog was a handsome collie, and for several years had been the companion of Dan Saph, a fisherman at Thirty-third street and Lake Shore. He had rescued many small boys from death in the lake during his life. Tommy Ackerson, 10 years of age, sought relief to-day from the heat by plunging in the lake. Scott gaw the littla fellow out beyond his depth. Jumping from the pier that projects into the water at that point he seized the bather by the leg and _dragged him to shore. The hoy returned to his home and informed his parents that a dog had bitten him and Mrs. Ackerson made complaint to the Stanton avenue station. An officer was detailed to kill the animal, the police not recog- nizing the hero of many reports in the police accident book. A little later a hint was received as to the identity of the dog, and Miss Smith, assisted by Sergeant Reynolds, made a desperate effort to reach the officer de- tailled to kill the collie. They were too {ilte(h The dog had already been shot to eath. MURDERED MAN’S BODY RUN OVER BY TRAIN Unknown Victim Placed on the Santa Fe Rails in Santa Ana Canyon.

BOUTS ROWING RECORDG ' ARE SHATTERED Cornell Wins the Inter- collegiate Boat Race. Exciting Finish, in Which Columbia Plays a Strong Part. ey G POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y. July 2—The varsity race between the six crews was | a most brilliant one, such a race as Cor- nell, Columbia and Wisconsin put up be- ing the greatest ever seen On any course. When the crews neared the bridge at the | three-mile mark these three crews were having a most magnificent struggle. Their shells were at times lapping one another and this position was maintained until the three crews entered into the last half mile of the race. They were all rowing a steady, strong stroke of about thirty- two and thirty-four and then Cornell raised her stroke and made an elegant spurt, increasing her lead over Columbia by a length. Columbia also entered into the spurt and again went after Cornell When the three leading crews were within a few hundred yards of the finish line the shells of Cornell and Columbia began to | draw toward each other, thus shutting | out the Wisconsin lane. The Badgers | still kept their steady speed and the nose | of their shell was gaining on the leaders at all times. Gradually the shells of Co- | lumbia and Cornell again began to part | and the Wisconsin crew then made a des- | perate effort to push up. but the power | did not seem to be in the boat.
