THIT IF RITCHIE
By Left Hook.
W HAT chance has blffer Fred
die Welsh, supreme among
English lightweights, In the
championship struggle with Willie
Ritchie at McCarey's Vernon Arena
Labor Day
Don’t ponder and fret trying to
solve this query, but Just peruse the
dope and it will not be surprising
should the news arrive that a new’
133-pound conqueror has been ac
claimed after the holiday presenta
tion.
Welsh, who gained the title of
Great Britain and Kngland from Matt
Wells in 1 $12, licked the present
champ, William Ritchie, alias Geary
A. Steffen, In a 20-round scrap at
Vernon. Cal., November 30, 1911.
Freddie also has shown Matty Bald
win the high precipice to the W’oods,
earning the verdict In a 20-round skit
at San Francisco June 23, 1911.
Just to dig furor In boxing realms,
Fred backed Harry Trendall away
with a kayo blow in 1908. Welsh's
only defeats have been delivered by
Packey McFarland and Matt Wells.
To further exhibit his utter contempt
for those blffers who conquer, the
British highbrow’ challenged Wells for
the English crown In 1912. It took
“Welsh Just 20 chapters to show Matt
how easy it Is to gain prominent
recognition
Ritchie Will Have to Go Some.
In donning the padded mitts against
Welsh. Ritchie has bit off a most ro
bust chunk. Not to Infer that Willie
will be beaten, but the performance of
the “dontcherno” champ in the last
seven years indicates that Mr. Cham
pion is due for a fearful tussle. Willie
hasn’t the class that his Nemesis pos
sesses—that is, If records tell the f aie.
Willie Ritchie gained the honors
from Adolph Wolgast on a foul deliv
ery- .Freddie pulled and tugged, took
and gave, for all he was worth In
convincing the third man that ne
was the better in the Marathon with
Wells.
In 1909 Welsh defeated Young Erne.,
Considered one of the claimants for
the laurels. In 1912, when Champion
Ritchie was supposed to be touching
the zenith of superiority, he was un
able to earn a decision over the clever
Erne. Phil Brock w’as a cinch f6r
Freddie In 1907 and once again In
3909.
William Ritchie couldn’t begin to
rout Phil In a six-stanza ditty last
year. Even Harry Trendall spent u
short seance with Willie in 1912, re
ceiving a no-declslon finish, while
"Welsh dropped Trendall In six rounds
for a K. O.
Ritchie's one boast over Freddie
may be the Jack Britton go. In 1911
Ritchie slammed away at the aggres
sive pounder, decisively whipplnr his
opponent. But Welsh can come right
back producing the dope that he has
walloped Jem Driscoll. Ray Bronson,
Johnny Owens. Joe White, and good
ness knows how many other less im
portant mittlsts
Maybe Leach Will Be 8orry.
Welsh has a teasing method of em
ploying the crouch system of bom
bardment- He’s not to be pooh-poohed
In summing up the swatting powers.
If ad van * enlightenment from the
training amp* can be molded as
facts. Welsh owns a more wicked stab
than his rival The Labor Day bout
should be one of the great events of
the year
While R 4 tch1e arid Welsh are trying
to pound the points. Leach Cross and
Joe Rivers will pleiane the pugilistic
patrons by tapping and hopping to
and fro And the winner Is to get the
victor In the RStdate-Welsh bout.
In further dlwtng Into the specula
tion wave*. It ae-em* pretty foolish to
many critics that Cross passed up
the Labor Day battle with Ritchie By
all rules of the game, the Gotham
tooth expert cleaned the side road to
a title match. Joe Rivers Is no slouch
with the gloTes.
Many a famed hammerer has been
awl shed to the ’'has-been'’ class by a
lucky blow. Evidently, Wallach A Co.
wanted the dough first and the glories
next.

HICAGO. Aug. 21.—When Frank
Farrell, of New York, signed
Frank Chance, of California, to
manage the Highlander ball team he
told the newspaper men here In Chi
cago that Chance was to have carte
blanche and that he would support
his Judgment to the last penny In the
matter of purchasing new men for the
team. It begins to look as if Far
rell meant every W’ord that he said,
for the Highlander boss Is beginning
to unbelt In great shape and to buy
up young players by the car lot. This
Is the time of the year when all of
the magnates, even those who are
reasonably assured of a pennant, ar*
loosening the strings and getting In

BOB M’ALLISTER TO RETIRE
FROM GAME FOR ONE YEAR
RAN FRANCISCO, Aug 21.—Bob Mc
Allister. the San Francisco fighter who
achieved prominence In the middle
weight division when he fought twenty
rounds to a draw with Senor Ed Petros-
key. will probably retire temporarily
from the prize ring, according to the
announcement made to-day by hla
brother, A1 McAllister, who Is his man
ager.
“Bob is only 20 years of age,” the
brother explained, "and I think it will
be for his best Interests to step out
of the game for a year He practically
has promised he will follow my advice.”
McAllister, an amateur until a few
months ago. went into the professional
field to make money faster than he was
getting as an employee ip.-an Insurance

BROOKLYN, Aug. 23.—When the
Dodgers went to bat in the twelfth

who had been warned to keep quiet on
the bench, began to taunt Umpire
O'Day.
“You’re as good an umpire as you
were a manager last year. You're a
back number!” he shouted.
O’Day glared at the Pirate chief a
moment, then waved him to the
bench, exclaiming hotly:
"If you don’t keep quiet you won’t
be a manager for the rest of the day
and maybe longer!”
Clarke quickly retired and remained
silent until the next inning, when he
addressed O’Day in the sweetest pos
sible manner. The umpire turned his
back.

LONG-DISTANCE RACING
NEW YORI^. Aug 21—Alfred Shrubb,

declaring that he believe that it will
soon be dropped from Olympic pro

“Marathon racing saps a man’s life

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 21.—President

Outfielder Maggert, of the Angels, who
will report at once to the Windy City
club.
Maggert has been one of the real sen
sations of the Pacific Coast League this
season. He has led the circuit in bat*
1 ting and ranks second in stolen bases.
NEW YORK, Aug. 21.—Opportunity
to see the most marvelous pair of
running legs in the world, and to
see them in action trying their level
best to lower the record for an hour,
will be the privilege of all who go
to Crystal Beach Saturday, August 30.
On that day Hannes Kolehmainen, the
w’orld’s mightiest runner, w-’ill appear
as the stellar attraction of a big field
meet.
Besides the exhibition by the
world’s most famous runner, there
will be two preliminary events—open
to all registered A. A. U. athletes.
The four men selected to race against
Kolehmainen are the fastest of the
local milers. They will run in relays
and will pull Kolehmainen along as
he has never been run before. It Is
to be hoped that Hannes will beat the
w’orld’s record, as his heart, is set on
annexing this record to the other
w orld's records which now dangle at
his belt.
OCTOBER 6.
/ SAW a line of weary men
All hollow-eyed and tore,
And hordes of cops did urge
them on
In slow march, four by four;
And some were fanned with ashen

And none did make a roar.
And as they reached a gateway
grim
Rough guardians there did stand.
Who wrenched from them their
hoarded coin
And cussed them something
grand;
And all who did except thereto
Upon their ears did land.
And once inside the keepers shove
Eaoh into a hard seat.
And there are other myrmidons
To stamp upon their feet;
And they must sit in mist and chill
Without a bite to eat.
Ah, who could merit such a deal—
What have these lorn ones donef
Why, you poor boob, they like it
well,

’Walsh Now Pitching for Sox’
+•+ +•+ +•+ +•+ +•+ +•+
Tickers Don’t Flash That Now
E D WALSH Is not with the White
Sox on their Eastern trip. In
all the games Callahan's men
play during their stay in the East,
the ticker will never flash. ’NINTH
INNING: WALSH NOW PITCHING
FOR CHICAGO.”
The Big Moose, the greatest of Iron
men. isn’t the Walsh of 1912. The
averages give him seven won and
three lost for a percentage of .700.
He has pitched 10 games, with the
season half over. If he pitches 10
more during the remainder of 1913
it will be a surprise.
Walsh Is worn out. He has the
heart and head of last year, but his
arm isn’t able to perform what he
wills. He is Just a shadow of his
1912 self, so far as pitching goes.
Too many Innings of relief work, too
many innings pitched did for his iron
arm.
For years he was "THE WHITE
SOX,” practically all there was to the
White Sox, and the only reason any
one went to see the club. Last sea
son, with ordinary backing, he pitched
Chicago into fourth Mace. There
were 78 games won by the club. Walsh
Is credited with 27 of them in his own
record. Many more he saved for
other twirlers, going in with the Sox
ahead and stopping rallies.
Callahan pitched his willing worker
393 innings, or 43 nlne-lnning games,
during the American League season.
This shows on the books, but there Is
no record of the Innings Walsh warmed
up and used up his arm by so doing.
This season Comlskey, the Sox owner,
thought Walsh would pitch more than
400 innlnes. Callahan thought so
Wash thought so.
But the Iron Man was through. He
had held th© White Sox up so long
that his arm was w r eary, even if he
didn't know It. Hie record of 393
innir gs In the American League sea
son, topped off by his feat of twirling
the Sox to victory by pitching 40 in
nings of the Chicago city series with
the Cubs—which he won practically
by himself—has taken toll.
Whether Ed Walsh will come back
is a thing the future will have to tell.
Sometimes they do, but oftener they
don’t Rest may bring him back, 11
Callahan gives It to him. But again
It may be that 393 Innings of fiercely
competitive ball have ruined his arm
for good and all and that one of the
greatest pitchers the game has known
Is now a has-been.
DEE WALSH TALKED SELF
OUT OF MAJOR LEAGUES
Umpire Silk O’Loughlin says Dee
Walsh, the Chattanooga shortstop,
talked himself out of the American
League. According to O’Loughlin,
Walsh’s specialty was to strut up to
the plate and dare the pitcher to put
it over.
"Can you Imagine a snip of a kid like
Walsh, who isn’t much bigger than a
peanut, daring a big fellow like Walter
Johnson to stick it over the pan?” said
O’Loughlin. “The average American
League pitcher would make two of Dee
Walsh. The kid got himself In bad
trying to bluff ’em. He thought it the
proper caper, but it worked the other
way. The pitchers tabbed him a fresh
kid, and tipped each other off. Every
now and then some big twlrler would
shot the pill at Dee’s bean and scare
him stiff. They bad him ducking and
dodging wild pitches until he couldn’t
hit the pipe. But Dee is a game kid
and will come back. He needs expe
rience.”
BASEBALL TRADES AS

DOOIN BELIEVES QUAKERS
WILL BEAT OUT GIANTS
PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 21—”1 am
more than satisfied with our team and
am Justly proud of our record,” said
Manager Dooin, of the Quakers, to-day.
"I firmly believe that we will come
mighty near to tumbling the Giants
out of their perch before we are called
upon to go West again. We are go
ing at the right clip just now, and with
the boys simply aching for a chance to
get busy I can not but feel that we will
soon be on top.
”1 have succeeded in getting Jo«h De
vore from the Reds, and, believe me,
I am very much pleased, because Josh
is a corking good ball player and we
will find plenty for him to do. I have
not heard from him as yea, but I ex
pect him to come In to-night ready for
work.
“Then I will be ready* for duty my
self. I was just right when Bescher,
the big outfielder of the Cincinnati
Reds, Jumped on me with his spikes and
laid me on the side lines again. How
ever, It Is only a question of a few
days when we will all be ae good as
ever, and ready to give battle to any
of them.”

WORLD SOCCER ASSOCIATION
RECOGNIZES AMERICAN BODY
NEW YORK, Aug. 21.—Secretary T.
W. Cahill, of the United States of
America Football Asociation, received a
cablegram to-day from C. A. W.
Hirsehman, secretary of the Interna
tional Football Association, saying the
emergency committee of that organiza
tion had admitted provisionally to mem
bership the UnH>d States of America
Football Association.
This recognition by the governing
soccer committee of tne world makes it
possible for this country to compete in
the Olympic soccer games at Berlin in
1916. It also means, according to the
announcement made here, that the
United States Association will conduct
