CHICAGO BOXERS MUST
WEAR MASKS AND PADS

CHICAGO. May 4.-Chief Of Police
McWeeny admits that recent decisions
handed down by the states attorney
and municipal judges left him in doubt
as to his ability to stop boxing exhibit
tons in Chicago. This admission was
made to Tommy White, who won a YER
dict in the city court when he was re-
leased from charges of prize fighting.
White was arrested while boxing with
Harry Forbes. Both men wore masks
and protectors during the bout.
White was in conference with the
city police head for several hours yes
terday, feeling out his chances of CIV
ing public sparring exhibitions where
the mask and protector are used. and
from the declaration of the chief White
thinks that he can stage such things
without interference. The former box
er is of the opinion that the assertion
of the police head paves the way for
stage work in Chicago by such clever
men as Jack Johnson. Packey McFar-
land and Johnny Coulon.

there would be fewer sick ones onl
their hands when their services arel
most needed.
There is ever so much more In
spring training than merely the
throwing and batting Of the ball.
One great trouble with profess
sional ball players, old or young, is
that they neglect their health,
largely through the carelessness
that all athletes in perfect health
seem to have. They are averse to
taking the necessary medicines that
are requisite to keep them in good
physical condition. especially in the
spring. and usually have to be
forced into taking the most COM
monplace precautions. They will
nurse their arms, legs and muscles
most carefully, but do not seem to
have even a common sense regard
for their internal mechanism. They
are, in fact. like growing children
who have to be watched by their
mothers.
