 BOXING REVIEW

recognition as the best of the white heavfes.
 With Billy Nolan dictating the poll icy of our lightweight champion thelre is not much prospect of Wol- gast's conqueror being seen in the ring for some months to come. Ritchie has been made many nice of. fers during the last few weeks, but his manager has held out little en- couragement to promoters. The Garden Athletic Club wired Nolan for terms to box Packey Mcfarland ten rounds in this city, but upon learning that a s1o.000 guarantee was the least that would be consider ed by the champion. the manage ment dropped the negotiations then and there.
 No one can justly censure Ritchie for getting all the money out of the championship that he can gather for the next faw months. He has earn ed the right to reap the financial re- wards that go with a title. and like those who preceded him has adopt ed the stage as the quickest and cas- isst way of getting the coin for the time being. The most pleasing news that has leaked from the Ritchie camp is that the new champion will not draw the weight lines SO tightly as Nelson and WoIgast did, so that

 OF SPRING TRAINING TRIP

The Cincinnati fans believe that the Reds. strengthened by Tinker, will be contenders all the way next season. the training of ball players which he can now put into effect. In an inter view last week he said:
 "A ball player. like a fighter, should strengthen his legs. I believe pitch CTS should be made to do a lot of pre- liminary work on the bases How many twirlers have you seen who were worn out by running around the bases in a game in order to score a run? Many of them after sprinting a little are in no shape to pitch the next inning. They lose control and that IS what they need more than any thing else.
