BENKERSCHER "FL YING
DUTCHlMAN' IS BURIED

Los Angeles. Cal, May 11.-Ben
Kerscher is dead. The nervy Flying
Dutchman." once the team mate Of
Barney OIdfield. was buried Thursday
BY his brother BIasons. Ben died with
his wife and baby girl holding the limp
hands which once had driven the fast
Darracq into a world record
The famous racing drivers finish was
sad and yet was fitting. While Barney
OIdfield. the man he worshiped. was
facing certain defeat on the Santa
Monica road race course. Ben entered
the Great Beyond While the shriners
were marching through the streets In
full regalia. Ben was laid TO rest.
Didn't See OldneId.
The man who defeated Oldfield in the
paImiest days Of the former speed
kings triumphs. came to Los Angeles
TO watch Barney win the Santa Monica
road race. Ben was certain Barney
would be the victor. His flurterinE
heart was denied the pang that would
have come had Ben seen Oldfield beaten

by mere striplings who were IN knee
breaches when Barney was king
Two weeks before the great road
race Ben reached Los Angeles with his
hollow eyes aglow with the fire OF a
speed contest in which he was sure q
world record would be smashed. He
was accompanied by his plucky wife
and pretty baby. The pallid hands OF
the great white plague specter reached
out for Ben and a week before the
Santa Monica road race he was obliged
to seek his bed. Even then he hoped
10 be carried to santa Monica to watch
Barney win.
Robbed Him OF Roth Wishes
While Teddy Tetzleff was racing into
a world record, far ahead OF Oldfield.
poor Ben passed out, firm in the belief
that Barney was stiu the greatest mo-
tor driver on earth. AS the Shriners
marched by in blaze Of glory, Ben's
body was lowered 10 its last resting
place. His two last wishes had been
denied Re did not see Barney win
and death robbed him OF the chance to
enjoy Shriners' week.
Barney Oldfield is raising money 10

once gave him the greatest race OF his
life.

time So they tell me to take no
chances Which certainly IS a disap-
pOintment 10 the big fellow. You know
he batted from the left side OF the plate
when he was in the minors. He does
the same on the training trip.
He likes TO bat from the off side Of
the plate. Then he figures his future
would be brighter il he hit from the
left. Walsh realizes that he can't
pitch the remainder of his life. But he
wants to remain in the game even after
he has lost the cunning Of his pitching
arm. He has turned his eyes TO the
first base and figures that when
Walsh the pitcher begins to lose his
cunning. Walsh the first baseman
should still be a fixture in the big
leagues.
Since a first baseman should be a
hitter, and since Walsh figures he
can hit better from the left side OF
the plate, IL is not surprising that he
Should be practicing from the off side.
When / was a yOungster down in the
mines I swung the pick over my left
shoulder Those muscles were devel-
oped then 1 use these same ones IN
hitting. so 1t is not 10 be wondered at
that want TO be left hand hitter"
There is chance that he win still
switch to the other side OF the plate,
for many a star pitcher has turned his
salary wing TO the man on the slab.

ED WALSH WOULD HIT
FROM THE LEFT SIDE

Chicago, Ill. May lid Walsh
wants to hit left-handed. but they
won't allow him to.
The big twirler likes to stand on the
left side of the plate and swing that
bat as he swung a pick when, he was
digging coal years ago. He says that
he is a natural left-handed hitter. But
president Comiskey says no. Callahan
says no. And that seems to settle it.
II isn't that the South Side owner and
manager fear that Walsh would be less
effective on the left side Of the plate
that is, as a hitter. IT is because they
fear that precious arm Of his would be
injured.
When Walsh stands on the right side
of the plate his left arm is turned to
ward the pitcher. II the big fellow
doesn't get out OF the way OF a wild
pitch he catches IL on the left side Of
his body, head or arm. The right arm,
the one which has made the big splitter
famous. IS never exposed. Let him
shift and there's always the danger
that a pitched ball will catch him on
the precious salary wing
They are afraid I might get hit on
the pitching arm" said Walsh II I

arm is would mean an injury which

X An FRANCISCO. Cal, Nay IL
Abe Atten, deposed featherweight
- champion, is now located among
the whisperins redwoods on Billy No
lan,s mountain ranch in Lake county.
Ase left tile clty carrying a stiff upper
LIP and with the never again pennant
flying at the fore peak.
He intends TO spend several months
on the Nolan estate and saturate him
self thoroughly with what ever brand
OF ozone they advertise up there He
IS to eat ranch fare. follow the plow
and retire to rest with the birds or
rather at a corresponding hour.
Above all ne is not to touch cards,
or at least not in games where a yellow
chip represents an outlay OF $50 and
white are redeemable al a dollar apiece.
This is one Of the clauses IN the con
tract which binds Atten and Nolan
Under ordinary cirCumSL anceS 1t
might have been hard for Nolan to in
duce Abe TO relinquish his beloved
poker but they say there were rea-
sons why the eX-champion was quite
satisfied to have a paragraph forbid
ding daIIiance with straights and
flushes inserted in his newest agree
ment. Here they are;
Attell has done little else but play
poker since he lost 10 Tommy Murphy.
It's way he has Of forgetting the
5Ibes and sneers OF this cruel world.
Some fellows drown their sorrows in
the flowing bowl. Atteu buys a stack
and dull care vanishes.
says He Had Great Luck
Abe had phenomenal luck. 1t may
sound like a. fairy tale but if the vO-
tsfres Of the circular tables are TO be
believed the one time featherWeigh t
king won $50 600 in a couple of weeks.
Then Dame Fortune began TO feel as
though she had done enough for Abey-
The cards ran against him and some
$1,000 slipped away like sand through
Just about that time Nolan came
along. He unfolded his scheme Of re-
juFenati0n and remarked that poker
was the first thing he would insist on
having tabOOed- Abe was all too ready
10 fall in with Nolans views. The
scheme enabled Attel 10 hang on to
over 500, COO OF some one else's money
and absolved him from suspicion Of
cold feet" He could not play any
more because his new manager had
made him renounce the pastinle.
And SO they went to the range coun-
try, And H. as has been said, good
resolutions are sometimes converted
into paving stones, Abe's output viii be
ample to build an esplansde from here
TO Santa Cruz
Nolan thinks that few months Of
simple life viii enable Attell TO regain
his championship and bowl over an
assortment Of lightweights and feather
weights on the side. Abe is Of the

same way OF thinking But such is the
incredulty Of human nature that bets
are being made Abe VIII be seen around

Is feeling supple ard tigerish. He has

phey and manager Buckley. ana he in
tends 10 XIII two birds with one stone.
Johnnie Kilbane can wait. Abe has
no complaint against Kilbane apart
from the chagrin he feels at losing
MS championship. Besides Kilbane bas
promised MIN q return match and the
time.
Abe is sore against champion VOL

70 lnyeigie him into a bout The fact
that Ad has repealed all Abe's advances

whenever my name is mentioned"
They say when Jones heard this he
waved real sarcastic"
We'll well. what changes there have
been since 1905" he murmured. 'eTbe1
Attel was champion and a world
heater. He was at the TOP of the tree
and Woigast was scrapper Of thu
hobo stamp, unknown and unhonorad
Now Wolgasts fame is world wide His
reputation is made and his name Is on
every ones lips while Atteu is as
much Of hasbeel as & last years tan

Wonder What Abe said.
This was said after Abe had left
town. III bet when he heard it he
took a couple of extra pulls at the
ozone and resolved to stay with NoIaD's
reform schedule harder than ever.
The sports hereabOuts viii watch
with interest for results of the Nolan
Atteil deal There are numbers who
believe that all that allied Abe in his
recent matches was late hours and vio-
lation Of the rules Of training Those
who hold such views believe that Nolan

Attel back into the fighting fold in
such shape that the little Hebrew win
regain his lost laurels.
There are others who think that At
tell has shot his bolt They say he has
lost his speed, his punch and his con-
fidence and that he Is past patching up.
There are others again-cynics Of
course-who think that the lure Of the
clubrOOms viii prove too strong for
Abe-that the quiet Of the hill life will
render him restless and gloomy and
that he viii break camp some fine aft
ernoon when Nolan is ABSORBED in farm
problems.
