By BOB SHAND. Billy Wells, British welterweight champion, will have plenty at stake tonight when he faces Jimmy Duffy in a return match at the Auditorium. Wells has matched with Bert Colima for the local Auditorium a week from next Wednesday and naturally the match will not draw very well unless Billy makes thS right kind of showing thia evening. Wells was promised the match with the Whittier boy, win, lose or Jraw, tonight, but there was a rider in contract regarding treating the medal to a shaving process if he loses to Duffy. The Britisher gave Colima a neat lacing at Vernon three 'weeks ago and there wa spirited bidding for the return bout.

Ordinarily Simpson would not have taken the attraction away from Jack Doyle, the Vernon promoter, but it seems that Doyle tried to get a bout that Simpson was negotiating for and Tommy retaliated by copping the Wells-Colima affair. With Cardinal Grid Material Completion of Baseball Sea son Keleases Uacklield Stars for Practice. STANFORD UNIVERSITY. April 30. Coach J'Pop" Warner of the Stanford football team Is now working his 1924 grid-iron material to the limit in preparation for the season which starts in October.

Now that the baseball season has been completed several of the last year's football players have returned to the fold. Captain Jim Lawson, end, who played catcher on Coach Wolter's nine, is practic ing daily; "Chuck" Johnsson. newly elected baseball captain, is also donning the grid-Iron garments In preparation for work under "Tiny" rnornnui on tne line. Ernie Nevers. Fred Solomon and Murray Cuddeback in the back field, all baseball players, have also reported.

A great deal of green material has been working out under Warner, and on these men the famous coach will spend most of his time, In an effort to weed out the likely looking candidates for this year's team, leaving the training of the regulars to Andy Kerr and "Tiny- The Card backfield, with the ex- ception of a quarterback, is practically complete. Nevers at fullback, Cuddeback and Norman Cleveland, at present with the Olympic rugby team, at half-backs, make up the veteran backfield role. The quarter-back question is troublesome. Howard Mitchell and Dick Lawson seem to be the most likely candidates for the position. GRAPPLEUS BUSY.

Jack Wise of Yakima was given a decision here tonight over Rocco Stramagalia of Portland at the end of 15 rounds of fast fighting. The event was scheduled as a 12-round affair, but at the end of the 12th round the judges were unable to make a decision and told the fighters to continue lor three more rounds. At the conclusion of it was announced by the referee that Stramaglia, who was knocked down in the third round for the count of nine had continued the battle three broken ribs.

remained for Joe playing on his home course, to set the pace in the opening day of play in- the Northern California Open Championships yesterday; when the Berkeley professional medaled the Berkeley Country club one under par over the first eighteen holes. Playing with' Macdonald Smith, Novak set the pace from the Initial tee and made California's greatest golfer step at close to par over the out holes to come within a stroke at the turn, Novak finishing the first nine with 37 to Mac Smith's 38. Finding himself over the remain ing nine holes, Novak set a killing pace and finished two under the par for the "in" holes with a 33 which gave him one under par at 70 for the round. ATTRACTED GAIXEItY. The Smith-Novak competition attracted the attention of the entire gallery which had gathered for the event, and while the performance of Mac Smith was extremely disappointing to those who had come prepared for the sensational in golf, Novak's clever shooting made up for.

this in part. Novak, by shooting a medal round of 70, equaled the course record and had it not been for a four foiot putt which hung on the rim of the cup on the ninth and again once which barely rimmed the cup on the sixth, the Berkeley professional would have established a new record. As it was Novak held up well throughout with his entire game. On the first nine he was longer than Mac Smith from every tee, save the fifth, the only hole on the out nine in which Novak was in trouble with his drive. Novak's eard, which equaled the Berkeley course record, fllows: Out.

Br DOCG. MOOTEIL. To succeed as a golfer one must learn th aVt tjjt keeping the head down with the ej'es on the ball and get a large handicap." Thus spoke the winner of the 1924 Athenian-Nile club championship, Walter Reed a dinner at the Bequoyah Country clubhouse, following the completion of the second eighteen holes of the annual tournament yesterday. There appears to be much In what Reed says, and the word of the champion should go unques tioned. Playing with a 24 handicap and starting the second eighteen with a aet lead of three strokes over his nearest rivals.

Dr. G. H. Thomas and Samuel Thornton, Reed proceeded to upset the hopes of those who had figured on him to crack under the strain, by turning in an- other excellent medal card or 9J-J4-68 for a low net of 131. Reed won in a walk, as subsequent events proved, for while Dr.

H. Thomas rallied at the finish to register a net 72, he was eight strokes behind the winner. Thornton, with a net 82, was eliminated from the running early, and attention turned to the field, which was to produce some startling changes In the rankings. GOODWIX IS STAR. The most sensational playing yesterday was furnished by Claire Goodwin, who made a beautiful nphill fight for a tie for third I ition.

After being down with a net 76 at Ciaremont, Goodwin was forced to shoot a remarkable game of 72 gross yesterday to win his way to third place with a 140 net for the two rounds. His gross yesterday eclipsed all other performances on the Sequoyah club course, C. R. Graham with a 7 being the only other of the 84 players to break 80.

Ernie Nevers, recognized as one of the foremost athletes in the United States, has Just completed his most successful season. As the outstanding star of three Cardinal major sports, he has forever placed his name in the annals of Stanford athletic fame, and as a student he bids well to remain until the end of his college career to participate on future Card teams.

Last Saturday afternoon, after the Stanford-California track meet, Nevers won the first baseball championship for Stanford after more than six years of defeat. He twirled for the Cardinals in all three games of the series, winning two and losing one. The strains of continuous training does not seem to affect the big athlete. There is no doubt but that Nevers would have taken his place in the ranks of the Stanford track team last Saturday had it not been for the fact that he was scheduled to pitch the last game of the series. After concluding the football season, where he was easily the outstanding player on the Stanford team, Nevers took up basketball.

As a court man he has few rivals. And after football. It is not unusual for a man to take part in three major sports, but it does not usually happen that he develops into a star in each. Stribling Wins From Burke in Gotham Arena NEW YORK. 'April 30.

Young Strlbling.gave Mike Burke, pride of Greenwich Village, a scientific boxing lesson in the six-round main go of the Olympic Fund boxing carnival at Madison Square Garden last night. The youthful Southerner completely outclassed aged opponent in every one of the six rounds, launching an attack that game him a clean-cut verdict. Paul Berlenbach, New York middleweight, found a tough mark in Harold Abbott, of Rockaway Beach, who didn't knw when to quit when he was virtually out on his feet. After battering Abbott with a relentuess attack that floored him for the count of nine in the third round, Berlenbach followed by his advantage in the fourth round until the referee stooped the fight after one minute and 59 second of fighting.

Spring football practice got under way yesterday at Loyola College most powerful grips I know of I think that the theory of the interlock ing grip has been proven as prac-' tical as any by my record this past year It is a natural grip, for me ani it is one which old and young can as) alike.

Also, il my critics can prove that the. overlap ping grip is better than the interlocJc ing, 1 would most certainly liketf have them." What could be fairer?) Getthl heads working, old timers) aQpafiM Tprice ofTtveytoii lis the price of a good cigarette and a good is neverjex-pensive.

'That "something about. them you'll like" is partly tlw price but mostly! what tie price brings you- CIGAIUETTE8 the Wells is not worrying over to-t nights bout. He thinks he can lick Duffy any night in the week and knock him out on Sundays flnd he promises to carry the fight to the local" boy this time. They both were bothered with colds last time out but there will be no alibis after tonight's battle even though Duffy has been troubled with lumbago or something for the last few weeks. The ailment does not seem toffeot the boy's boxing as he has been tearing into his sparrl.

j. partners with great gusto whatever that Is. Duffy is faster, than. Wells but it remains to be seen If. he can retain Tils speed after taking a few well meant socks.

Those close to Wells assert that Billy's plan calls for an assault on the. Duffy pantry early in the proceedings and he hopes to slow the local boy down to a whifper and leave him nothing on which to make a last round rally.
