SOLONS DELAY FICHT MEASURE islators for Two Months Defect Is Found in Bill AR IN PRINTER'S HANDS L BN Time Presses in Which It . Can Become a Law and Stop Boxing in Califomiai g Special Dispatch to The Call. SACRAMENTO, March 8.—If the As- sembly Is going to send the anti-prize- 1 fight bill to the Governor it will have te hurry. Amerige called up the Rals- | ton Senate bill, identical with his own, | for passage in the lower house this | afternoon, but instead of being put to; a vote it was amended and put over until to-morrow. ! | There is something peculiar about the status of the bill. It was Introduced : in both houses early in the session and though it could have been brought to a vote long before it was in both houses it was passed by the Senate only a few ‘days ago and has been called up for final passage in the Assembly only | two days before the time of adjourn- | ment. This is not all, though. The failure to call the bill un earlier could easily be placed on the ground of legis- lative expediency, but there is some- thing else that cannot be so easily ex- plained. Though the bill has been be- | fore the legislators of both houses for | nearly two months, a glaring error that would make It unconstitutional, had it been passed as introduced, was only made known to-day. When the bill was called for passage Cleveland offered an amendment, cut- ting out that portion which permitted four-round amateur contests. Amerige at once objected, saying this was an unfair scheme to kill the bill. Cleve- land replied that if the Legislature in- tended to legislate against prizefighting at all it should not do things by halves. The amendment was lost. Espey of Alameda then offered the amendment that makes the measure constitutional. As the bill stood the first paragraph after the enacting clause started with “Section 412.” Es- pey’s amendment changed this to legal phraseology by starting it “Section 1. Section 412 of the Penal Code of the State of California is hereby amended to read as follows.” Amerige at once accepted the amend- ment, the opponents of the bill gladly voting for it, as when amended the bill would necessarily have to be sent to the printer for correction and then to the Senate, which would have to con- cur in the amendment. Amerige had no course but to accent the delay, as the bill would be worthless without the dmendment. ~ ———— Exciting Tennis Match. The final match of the mixed dcubles tennis tournament, com- menced last Saturday, was played yes terday on the Golden Gate Park courts. It resulted in a victory for Miss Vera Crocker and Morris Mc- Loughlin in straight sets. Their op- ponents were Mrs. C. Watson and R. Strachan, who received a handicap of owe 3-6. Although the match was won in straight sets, it was by no means one- sided. Miss Crocker and McLoughlin won the first set easily, the score be- ing 6-1. Mrs. Watson and Strachan tcok the first five games in the second set and it seemed they would surely win it. At this point Miss Crocker and McLoughlin braced up and won five straight games, making the score 5-5. They also won three out of the next four games, giving them the set by an 8-6 score. The tournament was held jointly by the Ladies’ Annex and the junior club. e HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETES IN INTER-CLASS FIELD DAY | Polytechnic Students Strive for Hon- ors on the Path for Their Re- pective Classes, The Polytechnic High School held its inter-class field day yesterday on the field of the Lowell High School. The +honors of the day were carried off by the members of the '05 class after a spirited contest. Valerga of the 07 team captured the sprinting events in which he con- tested and did a good deal to bring his team to the front. 'A great deal of rivalry existed in the mile race, which Mason captured. MacKenzie proved the strong arm man of the day, as he easily outdistan¢ed his competitors in the shot put. The pole vault was taken by Baker. Calver and Ellsworth were tied for second place. Ashley jumped four feet eleven inches in the high jump and took first place.

As the days roll by interest increases till at the present time every one seems to be talking about the coming contest. The fire laddies got together on Tues- day and defeated a fast team from St. Ignatius College by a score of 4 to 3. The coppers went over to Goat Island yesterday and played a team from the training shio Pensacola. The finest were beaten, 9 to 8, but they made a fast finish at that and would have won but for a lot of hard luck. The fire laddies are busily collecting all the bells in the department that is a whistle and between the two noise- | making devices there is sure to be do- ings at the Eighth-street lot on Sun- day afternoon. Fireman Tom Fitzpat- rick, the twirler, will arrive from Fres- no on Sdturday. He has been working hard with the Tacoma tigers and is in fine form. Jack O’Connell, the ever popular in- dicator man, will call the balls and | strikes and a great welcome is due him | when he steds iuto the middle of the | lot. “ The committee in charge of the game has placed a box at the dispesal of Jim McDonald and it is likely he will be present. Reserved seats are on sale at Harris’ cigar store. | REGATTA COURSE | 1S IN DISPUTE Oarsmen of Rival Univer- sities Unable to Agree| on Stretch of Water| b, STANFORD UNIVERSITY, March 8.—A controversy that may end in the canceling of the date for the intercol- legiate regatta with the University of California is going on between the boat clubs of the two colleges. T!Ie[ difficulty is over the selection of a suit- | able course on which to hold the races. | The authorities of both universities have decided on the course they want. but neither will agree to the selection of the other. | The California oarsmen want to use the Oakland estuary, but the men of the cardinal refuse to row there. Stan- ford objects to this course because the water is rough at times. The Univer- sity of California crew are doing all of their practice there, which would give them an advantage, as they would be accustomed to the winds and currents. The location the Stanford Boat Club contends for is at Stockton, where there | is a three-mile straightaway. The| course in on a slotigh about a hundred yards wide, and the water is always| still. Besides the fine facilities for row- | ing, this course has many advantages | for the spectators. In addition to a road along the entire distance of the course the Chamber of Commerce of | Stockton has offered to build a large grand stand at the finish. If the re- gatta is held at Stockton the boat club there will give a cup to the winner of | the race and the Chamber of Com- merce will divide the receipts between the two universities. In addition to the races with the Uni- versity of California the club here is also planning contests to be held with: clubs of Southern California and a re- gatta with the University of Washing- | ton. It is also probable’ Stanford will | take part in the aquatic sport at the Lewis and Clark Exposition in Port- | land. ——— YOUNG CORBETT GOING EAST.
