The ten-round hstic bout scheduled TO
take place al cuffs hall during the
Elks carnival between Young Christy
and Barney Wilke OF San Francisco, Is
attracting a great deal OF attention
among the local lights Of pugllism, and
they expect 10 witness one Of the fast
est contests Of that kind ever pulled on
IN Salt Lake.
During the week Christy called on
Chief Of Police Hilton and asked II he
would permit the contest The chief
Informed him that there was no law
against boxing contests for science
and skill" but II they attempted to pull
of a prize fight something would
drop. Chrlsty assured the chief 1t
would not be a slugglng match. but
merely sparring match.
The two men are said 20 be so evenly
matched they could easily be taken for
twins. Wilke, from all accounts, is Just
about as fast as Chrlsty, and II sucn
Is the case the event ought to be inter-

manlike ball This spring there was a
universal demand for clean ball. IL Is
something every intelligent patron Of
the game wants, ana they should not
be denied There has been more rowdy-
ism this year than was ever known be-
fore In the history Of the American
League The fact that the two large
leagues are at war is In measure re-
sponsible for the trouble.
The American league has made, how
ever, an honest and determined effort
to preserve order on Its ball fields and
discipline among its players. Out
breaks have occurred OF a most dis
graceful nature, but the offenders In
no instance have gone unpublished.
The American League officials have
a keen appreciation Of a duty they owe
the public They will not falter. More
drastic measures win be used, II neces-
sary to curb the belligerent spirits OF
the organization.
The intelligent and thoughtful player
must appreciate that the future welfare
and prosperity OF the game hinges
largely on the manner In which IL Is
conducted during the present year.
Many thousands were weaned ,away
from the sport during the Brotherhood
revolt and In the year following. which
marked the untimely conflict between
the American Association and National
League. II should be the steady aim
Of every American League manager
and player 10 lend his best efforts for
the maintenance Of good order on the
ball field.
have full confidence IN the Ameri-
can League stan Of umplres They
are men OF integrity, good judgment
and long experience. Three on the staff
have served the league in previous
years. and with credit. The vaporines
Of partisan press. and the wild ut
terances Of a disgruntled manager or
player should not be taken seriously.
The best means 10 secure good UNI
pirlng Is 10 keep the players away from
the official. To umpire a modern game
OF ball Is az best a trying and thank
less Job. The umpire Is not lnfallible.
In the course Of two brief hours he Is
called upon 20 make a hundred or more
decisions. He would. indeed, be q re-
markable individual II he could give
them all correctly-to the entire salts
faction OF eighteen hall players. two
managers-not TO mention the partisan
spectators. The way TO secure the best
results from an umpire Is 20 encourage
him In his work rather than 90 abuse
him.
