was not sure. but to her there always
seemed to be a secret laughter behind
those clear eyes.

BEECHER-CR|FF|N
BOUT MI GACRE
RESULTS IN DRAW
East Side Boys Great Work
in Tenth Round Gives
Him Even Break.

Charley Grimm. who claims the feather
weight championship of Australia. and
Willie Beecher. the east side light
weight. fought a ten-round bout at the
Long Acre A. \. stag. with honors even.
Beecher earned a draw through hts
hard fighting in the tenth round. when
he battered Griffin all around the ring
and nearly mad him out az the final bell.
Up TO the last round Grifin had Q
shade on B%eechcr. as he used a fast
left-hand iab. which he kept repeatedly
sending into Willie's face at long range,
while Beecher smashed away at his
stomach with both hands at close quar-
tcrs.
The battle was an interesting one.
as both men fought hard all through
the ten sessions. As far as The real
work OF the fighters Is concerned. II
must be admitted thai both OF them
have gone away back. GriHin's show
Ing was about one hundred per cent,
worse than he has shown in any OF his
previous BOUTS IN this vicinity. In the
first three rounds Bcechcr punished him
so badly that It certainly looked as II
he would not last six rounds. After
each oS these rounds Griffin was 90
tired that he could hardly walk to his
corner.
II looks as IL the beating Tommy
Murphy gave Beecher has taken all the
fight out OF him.
Young Critic. the Australian fighter,
who has not fought here in twelve
years and has not had a glove on, so
he claims. In eight years, boxed a three
round exhibition bout with frankie
Howe, and his scientific boxing made
the spectators cheer him repeatedly.
He was fast on his feet, jabbed and
countered quickly and blocked admir-
ably.

They ont like to pitch unless they

There In no excuse for n utility
player not being In shape to play at

Pitchers Sometimes Used in outfield
I'm the old days we never carried
more than twelve or thirteen men on Il

had to play ball. Sometimes a pitcher

McGraw agreed with Latham that the

was in getting the youngsters 10 play
ball every morning so as TO keep in
