II is seriously announced by one writ
er on boxing in New York that the best
fight which could be pulled off there
except one IN which Cans would meet
Britt or Nelson, would be between
Britt and Young Corbett. The idea OF
making Young Corbett the center or
interest again is ridiculous. He has
lost every big fight he has engaged in
recently, and has been so thoroughly
whipped that he has two OF three times
sadly announced that he was done with
the ring forever. It's a pity he did
not make good on these promises Of
retiring, for each re-entrance into the
squared circle has only meant defeat
and discredit. The talk ~ starring
man who IS known TO be absolutely
ali-in. shows how easy IL is to hand the
New York public something and get
away with II.

Still another has-been who is schedul-
ed to take the easy money of the
Gotham fight fans is Eddie Hanlon. He
was good boy at one time. but made
his reputation while still yOungster by
his ability TO assimilate punishment He
went against one good man after an
other. accepted terrific beating. which
boosted his record but ssnned his
strength. For the past two years IIan-
Ion has been a mark and, like Corb EFT.
has been walloped so badly that he
also said that ne would never don the
mitts again. Now Eddie is telling the
New York scribes that he is the real
thing again and they are cheerfully
swallowing his fairy tales and suggest
ing that he be matched with the top
notchers.

A. Yager, in the Sporting News, offers
a curious reason for the failure Of the
Brooklyn team TO win more games. He
attributes the lack of success TO lack
of talkl He claims that the fact that
Brooklyn players never have anything
TO say and indulge in no idle persiflage
among themselves OF aimed at the rival
pitcher when they re on the diamond
shows that the team is woefully shy on
ginger and the proper winning spirit
This idea is not so absurd as il might
appear. A team composed of men who
keep in the game all the time by their
line of conversation and are always
ready to cut loose with remarks is
mighty apt to be watching the course
of events closely and be ready to take
advantage of every opportunity. Play
ers who are there with the flow Of
people do not talk about what does not
interest them.

Base ball enthusiasts of Mineral Point
have awaited with intense interest the

pitcher of this city, who is attending
the University of Illinois at Champaign.
1t came last Saturday, when the team
from that university FLASHED with the
strong base ball club of Chicago Uni

ing to Ernie's chums and admirers here,
sustaining TO perfection their faith in
his skill as a pitcher. The Chicago
Record Herald reports the game in
these words:
1.-The collegiate debut of the new
University of Illinois star pitcher, Ovitz,
was the feature of the game between
the Illini and Chicago teams. With the
new "phenom" pitching great ball, the
Chicagos were BANKED, score ito O.
Ovitz was deep, impenetrable. mys-
terry for his opponents, whom he moved
down like chaff, fifteen Chicago batters
biting the dust. Ovitz had excellent
control, and only in one inning was he
worried. That was the sixth, when he
passed two batters. A poor throw by
another player let them advance, and
there were no outs, but Ovitz famed
the next three batters in order.

In life, this would be ruddy
