Cross Turned Down

but kind wprds for each other after
their grueling battle, the managers of
the pair are at outs Sam Wallnch

Joe Levjr can not see matters In this
light.
"Why should we box you again?**
said Levy to Wallach
"We have boxed you three times, and
Rivers won so decisively here that you
can have no complaint. We took Cross
on because Joe was oue to re- establish
himself. To do so he had to beat some
top-notcher. We turned the trick and
now we are after Ritchie and will keep
after him until we get a return match.'*
When asked If he wouLd make an of
fer for a Ritchie-Rivers match here,
Promoter McCarey called attention to
the fact that the lightweight champion
Is now matched to meet Harlem Tommy
Murphy In San Francisco, and added
that he could make no plans for using
Ritchie until this bout had been de

H ARRY BAKKR, the clever, lit
tle featherweight boxer. Is the
man who really gave mo my
.start in the ring in San Francisco,
and it was against my will at that.
I used to pal around with Baker and
Frankie Edwards and T began to take
a sort of. fancy to boxing because I
heard them talk so much about it.
Now* and then I would put on the
gloves with Baker, and of course he
used to slam me around, for I knew
practically nothing about how to han
dle the mitts.
Baiter kept after me all the time
and tried to tell me that there was a
good chance for me to break Into the
four-round game. T thought that he
was trying to jolly me along, so I
did not pay much attention to what
he said.
Well. 1 remember one night in No
vember 1907, we were out at Dream
land. in Ban Francisco, and the pro
moter was shy of talent. He w’as
stuck to get a boy to go on in one
of the cifrtain raisers. Baker, who
was out at the flgh’ts with me. grab
bed me by the arm and began to talk
business to me in a hurry.
“Here’s your chance. Geary,” he
said. “They want a kid to All in and
it’s up to you If you win you may
make a big hit for yourself, and if
you lose, well, what’s the difference?
You can take a chance anyhow.’’
But l was not strong for that. I
told Baker that 1 would have stage
fright, and if 1 did lose all the gang
would kid m* and 1 would not hear
the last of it for goodness only knows
how long.
Consents to Take a Chance.
“Well, we can fix that eaaily
enough," cut In Baker. "We will
send you in under a phoney name.
Nobody will know you. Come on
now and take a chance. 1 know that
you can boat this kid, for I have been
boxing with you."
\nyhow, to make a long story short,
I finally fell for Baker's advice. Vie
rushed mo into the dressing room, dug
up a set of trunks and a pair of shoes
forme, and then when nobody was
looking, he took me aside and gave
me a few pointers, which I never
will forget us long as I live.
Harry gave me final instructions as
to how 1 was to .lab with my left and
cross with my right every time that

He Gets His Nickname
Only a few of the most Intimate friends of the lightweight cham
pion know how he got the nickname of Willie Ritchie. It was not
until he became famous did the world at large even suspect that the
great little champion was fighting under an assumed name. To-day
he tell* how the "Willie Ritchie" was tacked on to him in a San
Francisco ring Just six years ago, when he broke in and won his first
fight by a knockout In the second round. The title holder tells of
the Incidents which led up to his start and of his fear the first time he
appeared before a big crowd.

to me. Enoch might have weighed a
ton. I really w*as scared to death. I
guess I would have jumped out of
that ring only Baker and Edwards
were there. They kept patting me on
the back and telling me that Enoch
would be easy for me.
How Ho Got His Name.
The announcer came over to me
and Asked me what my name was. I
hesitated a minute and then told him
that my name was Willie Richard
son. This was the first one that
came to me, so I handed it to him.
I’ll have to get a little ahead of my
story here and leave Enoch in the
ring to explain how I got the name
"f Ritchie. The next time 1 fought
the announcer made a mistake and
called me Willie Richards. Anfl the
next one dubbed me Willie Ritchie.
I thought that the third one was
lucky enough, so I have been fight
ing under it ever since.
I don’t remember hearing the bell
ring at all. In fact, I was in a sort
of trance In the first round, just stall

Baker gave me. Enoch called me all

some experience as a four rounder.
He told me that he was going to
knock my blocjf off and several other
things, hut T just.kept Nodding away.

mind to go right after him. This was
one of the best things I ever did. for
it won me my first battle and gave
me my start in the ring.
Enoch was tired and I felt pretty
good. I waded in after him. acting
upon the advice of my seconds. After
whipping in a few lefts to the Jaw 1

to the point and down went Enoch
in a heap. He just laid there while
the referee counted ofT 10. I was

I need not tell you that I was the
proudest kid ifl the world after the
scrap. Baker and Edwards took me
to my dressing room and fixed me

I did not feel a bit tired.
Then I walked out to the box of

the large sum of $7.50 for my
services. This looked like a regular
bankroll to me. I wanted to split it
up with my seconds, but they only
laughed and told me to keep the
money and buy a fighting outfit
with it.
From that moment on, T decided
that I wmuld be a fighter. The vic

ADVICE TO AMERICAN YOUTH.
He courteous and humble when your
elders arc about,
He meek and uncomplaining though
they floor you with a clout;
And if they tell you: "Jump through
this!** you never should object,
But willingly obey them with a show
of deep respect;
And if you let them jump on you
and beat you black and blue

A Cincinnati manager is something
like a Cincinnati hit—only more so.
The report that Joe Rivers wants
another fight with Willie Ritchie in

One thing we like about football is
that the teams do not go out on

is over.
Jack Johnson finally has become a
wrestler, but we always expected
that he would come to a bad end.
While Johnson is a promising
wrestler, he Is handicapped by the
rule which forbids him to wear brass
knuckles.
A football team In Indian captured
a maniac and handed him over to
the constable, and yet they let the
cheer leaders carry on unmolested.
Roger Bresnahan has been men
tioned as the next manager of the
Reds, but it doesn’t bother Roger any.
He has managed a team in St. Lou's.
When we reflect on the recent work
of Jimmy Clabby wo are forced to
admit that Eddie McGoorty is one of
our cleverest boxers. He has gone to
Australia.
THOSE RED MANAGERS.
They walk right in and turn around
and walk right out again.
They scarcely have a chance to get
acquainted with their men.
They sign a contract in the Fall and
wait till Spring—and then
They walk right in and turn around
and walk right out again.
Wisconsin fight promoters claim
they are losing money and yet they
are knifing each other to get the
matches, leaving us to guess whether
they belong in the Ananias or the

known to-day that the management of
the Auburn champions is dickering with
sevral of the leading football elevens
of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic
Association for a game to be played
here in the fall of 1914. It is prob
able that an engagement will be ar
ranged between Donahue’s Dandies and
Louisiana State. These two teams met
at Mobile this year, but the game proved
a frost from a financial standpoint,
hence the plan to shift the scene of the
