H ARRY BAKER, the clever lit
tle featherweight boxer, la the
man who really gave me my
start in the ring In Ban Francisco,
and it was against my will at that.
I used to pal around with Baker and
Frankie ftdwards and I began to take
a sort of fancy to‘boxing because 1
heard them talk so much about It.
Now and then 1 would put on the
gloves with Baker, and of course he
used to slam me around, for t knew*
practically nothing about how to han
dle the mitts.
Baker kept after me all the time
and tried to tell mo that there was a
good chance for me to break into the
four-round game. I thought that he
was trying to jolly me along, so I
did not pay much attention to whftt
he said.
Well. I remember one night in No
vember. 1907, we were out at Dream
land. in San Francisco, and the pro
moter was shy of talent. He was
stuck to get a boy to go on in one
of the curtain raisers Baker, who
was out at the fights with me, grab
bed me by the arm and began to talk
business to me in a hurry.
“Here’s your chance, Geary. ’ lie
said. ‘‘They want a kid to fill 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 I was not strong for that. 1
told Baker that 1 would have stage
fright, and if I did lose all the gang
would kid me and I would not hear
the last of it for goodness only knows
how long.
Consents to Take a Chance.
‘ Well, we can fix that easily
enough.’* cut in Baker We will
send you In under a phoney name.
Nobody will know you. Come on
now and take a chance I know that
you can beat this kid. for I have been
boxing with you.”
Anyhow, to make a long story short.
1 finally fell for Baker's advice. He
{ rushed me 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
j me a few pointers, which I never
will forget as long as I live.
Harry gave me final Instructions as
to how I was to Jab with my left and
j cross with my right every time that
1 got a chance I just fiodded. for I

He Gets His Nickname
Food for Sport Fans
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. Today
he tolls how the “Willie Ritchie” was tacked on to him In a San
Francisco ring ju»t six years ago, when he broke In and won his first

How He Got His Name.
The announcer came' over to me
and asked me what my name was I
heel la ted a minute and then told him
that tny 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
of Ritchie The next time I fought
the announcer made a mistake and
called me Willie Richards And the
next one dubbed me Willie Ritchie.
1 thought that the third one was
lucky enough, so I have been fight
ing under it ever since.
T don’t remember hearing the bell
ring at all. In fact, T was in a sort
of trance In the first round. Just stall

Enoch came rushing at me and I
stuck out my left and danced around.
T began to heed the warning that
Baker gave nie. Enoch called me all
kinds of names, for he kew that I
was only a green kid and he had had
some experience as a four rounder.
He told me that he was going to
knock my block off and several other
things, but I just kept clodding away.
My left did serious damage to
Enoch and I began to get confidence
near the end of the round When 1
