CLEVERLY OUTPOINTS SEIGER ! 5 Jimmy Britt Says Seiger Is a Hard Man to Knock Out (13 EIGER is a tough man and I took no chances. I think X showed the public that I could mix and de better than he could. I never hurt my hands, although it appedred so to some of the spectators. I simply did not use my right too ofter for fear that I might injure it. Then, again, I saw I could heat him with my left and did so. I intend to rest up & few days and then ®0 back to training for my contest with Canole. I was never in better shape. My seconds handled me splendidly and X fought a careful fight. The public can judge whether I showed skill or not. He never had me distressed at any stage of the fight. Seiger’s only chance of beat- ing me was to land his right, and I was careful that he did not. He caught me twice on the jaw and the blows dazed me for an instant, but I was right back at him.”—Britt in an interview. IMMY BRITT cleverly outpointed Charlie Seiger last night in their twenty-round bout at Mechanics’ Pavilion. The affair went the limit, and with the exception of the four- teenth round there was no time when Seiger seemed to have a chance with the clever Californian. It was the hardest fight Britt has ever had, and tried his strength, his clever- nese and his hitting powers to the limit. Seiger proved but little better than a punching bag and took an incredible amount of punishment. This is his only qualification as a fighter. His only blow is a right chop, but he seemed unable to land this effectively, although he tried repeatedly. There was a sameness about the fight up to the fourteenth round which kept down the enthusiasm of the spectators. In this round Seiger landed one of his swings and Britt went down just as the gong sounded. Seiger then forced the fighting for two rounds and there seemed to be some trouble in store for Britt. The latter quickly regained the upper hand again, however, and won without difficulty. SEIGER IS SLOW. Seiger was slow and awkward in his movements throughout, but he always retained a hard punch if he could but land it. Hé tried repeatedly, but Britt ‘was never where he thought he was. Britt kept up a constant fusillade of blows, alternating between the head and the body, but they did not have the power to stop Seiger. The latter covered up well and stopped many blows with his arms and his elbows. Britt was often puzzled to find a .vulnerable’ spot into which to plant a blow. He pa‘nted a bright red spot on Seiger’s back with his gloves, but Seiger showed no ill effects |from it. - Pyt Seiger was the first in the ring and Britt and his party did not come in for twenty minutes. The spectators :nu'ynd their displeasure by hissing Britt when he entered the ring. Seiger was seconded by Billy Roach, Billy Otts, Frank Mec- Donald and Jockey, Ross. In Britt's cor- ner were “Spider” Kelly, Tim McGrath, Curtis Richardson and Sam Berger. Rioting Continues at Santander. SANTANDER, Spain, Nov. 10.—The rioting which broke out here yesterday continued to-day. The troops are guard- ing the residences of Jesuits and con- Before the fighters appeared Geo: Gardner, Jack Johnson, Martin' Catiots and Jack Cordell, all engagements here, - ‘When Britt entered the ring he took his favorite stand, the southwest corner. Seiger took the northwest corner and it +owould have the choice, won for Britt and kept the southwest corner. Britt complained about the ring, which seemed to be about eighteen feet square instead of the regulation 24-foot ring specified in the Queensberry rules. Britt did not seem in his usual good spir- its. He seemed drawn and nervous, but the battle he put up showed he was in great physical condition. ‘Seiger was brown and rugged looking and through- out the fight his face was expressionless. l"le showed no signs of distress nor ela- tion. RECEIPTS ARE LARGE. The gate recelpts were $9002. Of this the club recelved $4501. Britt's share was 32700 60, while Seiger received $1800 40 as the loser's end. In the first round Britt and Seiger ex- changed rights. They landed the same in- stant. Britt acknowledged afterward that this and the blow he received in the four- teenth .round were the only ones that dazed him. In the second round Sieger sent his right to the head and Britt sank to one knee, but was up in an Instant and proved he was unhurt. Britt tried all he knew in the third round but his blows seemed to have no effect on the *“iron man.” In the fourth round Seiger was the first to get into action, as he was, indeed, in each round throughout the fight. . He soon slowed up from a hard left to the body and a right to the head, both of which hurt him. a right to the head and knocked him to his knees in the sixth round, Seiger was up in an instant and fought back, but was only a chopping block for Britt. In the seventh Seiger missed a hard upper- cut and, overbalancing himself, fell. He did not take any time on the mat. Britt sent a hard left to the head and missed a hard uppercut by a shade. The eighth, ninth, tenth and eleventh were all in Britt’s favor, as he kept punching Seiger continuously. The tide seemed to turn in Seiger’s favor in the fourteenth. He caught Britt a right to the head which staggered him and then scored a clean knockdown with a second right. The gong sounded while Britt was on the floor and he walked to his corner. The fifteenth and sixteenth rounds Seiger followed up his advantage and forced the fighting. He was unable to do any further damage and in the seventeenth round ritt again obtained the ascendency. his round he started Seiger's nose bleed- ing badly and kept it in this condition to the end. In the eighteenth round Seiger missed a right uppercut and gave Britt a great opening, of which he availed him- self. He sent In a rignt which lifted Seiger off his feet and set him on his haunches. In the nineteenth Britt cut Selger's mouth badly and then kept jab- bing him until the end of the fight. Referee Graney gave Britt the decision without hesitation. -~ WELCH DEFEATS RAFAEL. Is Awarded the Decision After Ten ‘Rounds of Hard Fighting. “Spider” Welch was awarded a decision over Frank Rafael after ten rounds of fast fighting. Welch did the cleaner work, although Rafael was the aggressor throughout the battle. Rafael was distress throughout, but put up & plucky battle. The decision rendered by Gran- fleld was recelved with hoots and jeers. A majority of the house believed the bout should have been declared a draw. Ra- fael did all the forcing and landed fre- quently with left swings, He hurt the “Spider,” but could not finish him. Welch landed straight punches and had Rafael bleeding from a bad cut over the eye. The second bout was to have been a ten-round contest between Dave Barry and Maxey , a husky fellow, who hails from the ppine Islands.

I always fight at 133 pounds, and I was strong all the time. If Britt will give me another fight I will make the same weight. All I need is a month’s rest and I will be ready for him.

In fact, he is better than I gave him credit for being.”—Seiger in an in- terview. fight by rounds as seen by an ex- l pert at the ringside: Round 1—After some cautious sparring Britt led twice with left and cleverly blocked two let leads for the head.

Members of Varsity Eleven Busy With Secret Practice. L R Special Dispatch to The Call. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Nov. 10.— The varsity football team lined up for scrimmage work to-night for the first time since its game with Multnomah Sat- urday. Yesterday's gridiron work con- sisted wholly of signal practice, kicking and catching punts, trying goal kicking and other fundamental work of that or- der. The coaches are striving hard to find a man who can kick a fleild goal iIf the opportunity should be afforded In the contest with the blue and gold next Sat- urday. These are strenuous times bahind the high board fence that surrounds the cam- pus gridiron. Secret practices they are and yet Coach Lanagan on several oe- casions to-night might be said to have glven away the secret, judging from the stentorlan tones in which he upbraided | the big_fellows for not getting into the plays. Lanagan is far from satisfled with the showing being made by the big eleven against the second, yet if coaching can ald them that same varsity eleven ought to be In perfect trim on Saturday, for each man is receiving individual attention from the coaches. Several of the big fellows did not get into the scrimmage to-night owing to the fact that their condition will not permit it. They have been worked hard during the past two weeks and as & result the trainer is afrald that they may “break over” before Saturday if they are allowed to go in for hard scrimmage work.

SELECTING MEN FOR BIG GAME California’s Coach Un- decided as to Naming Fullback. | Weakness of Ends Causes Berkeley Players Concern. Syt BERKELEY, Nov. 10.—It is pretty well understood that Jack Whipple and Mini will be the halfbacks and “Jonny' More the quarterback in Saturday’s game, but there is still a good deal of speculation going on as to whether Stern or “Jim” Forse will be the fullback. Coach “Jim' ‘Whipple sald to-day that he was undecid- ed as between the two men, but from what he said it might be inferred that the position will go to Stern. | "Up to last Saturday it seemed to be taken for granted that Forse would fill the bill at the big game. He had been tried at left tackle and fullback, but he seemed to flll better behind the line. He is an enthusiastic, hard-hitting player, is a consistent ground gainer and doesn't fumble. There seemed to be no doubt that he would go into the game as full- back. But Stern’s good showing in last Satur- day’s game against Nevada rather set- tled the contention over the place. Not that Forse made any mistakes, but that Stern made big ground galns against the visitors. Stern played in the second half only, Forse having been in the first, and 1t was easy to see that he was more than “making good.” Stern has not been playing all season like Forse and that is probably the rea- son for the impression that Forse would be the fullback. Stérn was hurt early in the season, so that the coaches have not been using him as often as Forse. He is a much heavier man than Forse, per- haps ten or fifteen pounds representing the difference. and he is not as quick on his feet, but he plays what might be called a “heady” game. “I haven't made up my mind who will play fullback,” said Coach Whipple to- day. “Stern has the best chance for the place, though to-morrow’s practice game will determine who gets it. It may be that we will try both men during the game.” The varsity lined up agal the second eleven agaln to-day. The second eleven was strengthened by the addition of Forse, Kittrelle and Geary. The first eleven played a fast game and there was - | a notable difference in the team work, | which up to this time has not beem by any means perfect. The coaches are spending a good deal of time perfecting the ends.
