The opening of a new school season
brings up the old troublesome question
of thousands of poor children going to
their lessons without having breakfasted.
1t is true that in every large city a
multitude of boys and girls seek their
desks each morning without having had
any food. Many more go without NOR
sci to sustain them for long hours after
they reach the schoolroom. 1t seems a
crime against humanity that these future
citizens of the United States should be
subjected to such severe punishment at a
time when they should be stimulated and

tribute to his wonderful clever
ness.
Richie fell into the fighting
game by accident. AS kid he had
been taught to box by his brother,
a member of an athletic club. He
had no intention of being a pro-
fessional fighter, boxing was all
that the boys in the neighborhood
did in their spare moments-the
neighborhood that produced Abe
Attell, Jimmy Britt, frankie Neil,
and Monte Attell, Eddie Hanlon
and many lesser lights in the pug
ilistic world.
After a few months, impressed
by the showing made by other
boys who had graduated from his
district into the professional
ranks, Willie suddenly decided to
try himself out IN real contest.
Without giving the matter much
thought he approached a pro-
motor on fight day,and asked to
be put on.
'No chance, kid" said the pro-
motor. "This card is full, and be-

Now, Wi1lie's dad didn't think
much of the fight game, so he
piped:
"My names Willie Richard
SON."
"Come around tonight" said
the promoter, ''and if one of the
boys fails to show up I'll give
you chance"

Ritchie's second fight with Jim
Davis. In the first round Davis
swung terrific left to Willie's
right cheekbone. A few second
later the right side of Ritchie's
face looked like a huge ball paint

handicap of one closed eye, Willie
managed to get draw.

Where have you been and
where did you get that face?" was
the inquiry.

away with it.
Richie had about 40 fights
and has never been knocked out.
Only four decisions have been re
corded against him. Charley
Reilly outpointed him in a four
round go when he was new at the
game, but Willie later gave Reilly
two lickings.
frankie Burns of Oakland also
was given a decision over him
early in his career. One of the
other decisions against him was
secured by Matty Baldwin, but it
was in Ritchie's first 20 round
fight and he did not know how

 At ''Bugs'' Raymond

Cincinnati. April 10-One of the most humorous decisions ever perpetrated by the National Commission was handed down yesterday in the rein statement of Arthur L. ("Bugs") Ray mond, the eccentric spitbaI tosser of the New York Giants. As a result the baseball sharps of this burg are speculating as to where to hang the joke-it might be tackled on Bugs" :, McGraw, or the triumvirate.
 Possibly it was meant for an infic- ton on McGraw, who passed up Ray mond's case as hopeless last winter. At that time he requested reinstate- ment for Bugs, hoping to use this questionable property in a trade. Raymond spent the carfare advanced him and Mc(Sraw said Good night. |" Mac was SO disinterested in Arthur that he didn't even take the trouble to suspend him for failure to re- port.

WILL KILL BASEBALL

We are sincerely sorry to see that pool-selling has now attached itself to the game of baseball, and trust that the authorities will speedily be able to stop it. Much in the modern game is Gcommendable. Too assiduous at tendance at baseball games may read ilx<b&come a serious waste of time, byH-it has. at least been a clean sport, and in late years honestly conducted. At-its best it affords innocent and harmless entertainment in the open air by the display of amazing skill and often remarkable head and team work. IL would be highly unfortunate, there fore. both for managers and specta- tors. if there should grow up regu- lar betting fraternity in connection with the league games. Were that to take place, the sport would at once lose in prestige and probably in inter est- 1. Individual betting on games there will be- of course, as long as human nature is what it is; but, on the whole, there has been compara- lively little of that. The men who have money invested in the teams ought to be the first to aid the au- thorities in extirpating pool-selling on baseball games.-New York Post.
