~ 400 fight fans chance to en-

when he declared Barney Ford. of
Philadelphia. had fouled Terry
Mitchell. of New York. in the
fourth round of the main bout at
Harry Staten's Olympic club.
1t was foul blow all right and
we were all glad that the referee
saw it. for otherwise we might
have been forced to sit through the
entire scheduled ten rounds. And
goodness knows we wouldn't have
cared to do that, unless some of us
prefer wrestling to boxing.
The blow that ended our misery
was left swing that didn't carry
much steam. but it was far below
the limit in the Marquis of Queens
berry code. The wallop probably
didn't hurt Mitchell in the least,
but he saw a chance for victory
and his only opportunity he had to
win, by the way-so he took an
awful "Brodie'
While neither boy knew any too
much about the game of hit and

ter boy. He is fairly clever and
packs a fair kick in his left hand
Mitchell probably can hit the hard

floor and a wooden man could

Said face has suffered many a beat

and his nose covers his face like d

This same face led Ford to believe
that his only hope of winning was
by working on the body and there

part of Mitchell's anatomy.
Time and again he ripped his left

directors about sales and such

was tremendously handicapped. so
he was al Buffalo. And it was be-
cause club officials wanted to take
some of the financial management
away from him that he split up
with the Atlanta association after
winning the 1909 pennant
THROUGH the coming season
Smith will have free financial
rein. He can buy or sell whatever
and Whomever he pleases. There
has been no limit placed on the
money he can spend All he has to
do is to ask for it. He will not have
to consult anybody about anything.
He will have a call on unlimited
money and he can buy and sell as
he pleases.
With circumstances like that Bill
smith shines. He is a good spend
er-but he is a good salesman as
well. He uncorks a key of money
at the first of a season but he
makes most of it back at the end of
the season by selling some good
players.
