PRAISE GIVEN LOCAL COURTS.
STATES EXPERT SAYS REC
ORDS ARE COMPLETE, WE'LL
KEPT.
Manitowoc county courts. circuit and
municipal, are highly praised for the
neat and complete records which are
maintained in the letter which Prof
Oliver S. Rundell, of the University
Law School, special Investigator for
the state has written Municipal Judge
A. Fl. Schmidt and in which the writer
incidentally refers to the prominence
of the local jurist in the movement
looking to better administration of
criminal justice in the state. Mr..
Rundell recently investigated the re-
cords of the local courts in connection
with the States inquiry looking to
perfecting of laws for practical admin
istration of laws and to do away with
delays caused by technicalities inter-
posed. The investigation is being
made at the instance of the Institute
OF Criminology and Criminal Laws of
which Judge Schmidt is a member and
the State has taken the counties of
Dane, Iowa and Manitowoc as basis
for its statistics. The letter to Judge
Schmidt is as follows:
Though somewhat tardly, | wish
to convey to you more fully than | had
opportunity of doing when was in
Manitowoc my appreciation of the cor
dial assistance rendered me while
there in going over your records. 1t
is only fair to say however that it was
what had expected to receive FROM
ONE WHO IS so PROMINENTLY
AND HELPFULLY IDENTIFIED
WITH ALL MOVEMENTS LOOKING
TO THE BETTERMENT OF THE
ADMINISTRATION OF CRIMINAL
JUSTICE. INDEED THIS LATTER
FACT WAS A PROMIN ENTFACTOR
IN THE SELECTION OF YOUR
COUNTY AS A FIELD OF INVES-
TIGATION.
In closing WISH TO PAY TRI-
Butte TO THE CARE AND COM.
PLETENESS WITH WHICH THE
RECORDS AREKEPT IN BOTH THE
MUNICIPAL AND CIRCUIT COURTS
IN MANITOWOC COUNTY, which
fact greatly facilitated and lightened
my work there.
Yours sincerely,
Oliver S. Rundell.n

"Subscriber" "What is the mean
ing of 'unco' in Scotch? What is
meant by rye in the Scotch song,
Coming Thro' the Rye?' Word un-
co has two meanings. AS an adjective
it means uncommon or uncouth. AS
an adverb it means very, as ''unco
good" or ''unco quid, the pinchbeck
saints. In crossing stream by step
ping-stones the peasants of Scotland
held they had right to kiss any las
sic they met. There was River
Rye near the home of Burns, who re-
cast the song, and it is supposed the
allusion is to this river.

moved him and appointed L. A. Ander-

T. LOUIS, No, July because
~ Willie Richie was the first and
~ only champion to be credited with
a worlds title on the strength Of hay
ing been fouIed, there was a tendency
to poke fun at him on the ground that
his honors were 1914 cheese and the
rest good luck.
But there's nothing Of IL in his make
up. as vas proved by his knockoqt Of
Joe Rivers. Richie, IN that bout
showed GOODNESS under fire, courage, a
fine left hand and a right cross with
al the earmarks Of a true soporiflc
about it,
he solved the rushing attack Of
Rivers, avoided his hard punch after
he had analysed his opponent, and pro-
ceeded TO cut up his vis-a-vis in a
WOrkmanlike style.
Richie Figured to win.
Richie was fa7orite for the fight
as he should have been. On the line
given through WOlgast, he figured a
clear winner. for he had punished VOL
CAST severely and Wolgast had pre-
viOusly. knocked out Rivers.
But aside from this fact, the epithet
or cheese champion applied to Rltcnie
could never have been seriously meant
If one took a glance at his previous
record. Richie, whose real name is
Geary A Steffeu, OF san Francisco, Is
DuL Y years 0lQ- de mas Deen uSul-
ing five years and although almost
unknown around the continent until
he met Fred Welsh as q substitute for
Vol CAST Nov 80, 1911, he nevertheless
had done things
Trims Some Tough Foes.
For example. when only Is years old,
he trimmed the Butcher Boy, Anton La
grave. IN six rounds. He fought so
tough q proposition as frankie Burns
a draw. In 1911 he sought higher
game He trimmed half a dozen third
raters to start with and then he began
TO show better He won from trial
horse" 8Iatty Baldwin. one of the
toughest boys in the game; he knocked
out Tommy Mcfarland. beat Johnny
Mccarthy and got the decision over no
less a scrapper than Jack BrittOn, now
rated championship timber.
He also disposed Of Jerry Murphy,
another tough heart Of oak boy, who
showed around ST. Louis for a while
last year. Then came his first flash
at notoriety He was rushed in on
moments notice to substitute for Ad
WOlgast against Freddie Welsh, the
El Paso herald. (El Paso, Tex.) 1901-1931, 1913-07-09

man whom he must eventually defeat
to retain his laurels
In that bout the pugilistic world was
astOunded at the showing Richie
made. In the minds of many he held
Welsh even and he unfinished him to-
ward the close Of the 20 rounds. Welsh
was given the verdict, the only black
mark on Riches escutcheon-
Mcfarland Grows jealous.
Richie then left 1IcFarland's training
camp, where he had Deen working as a
sparring partner to the 'stockyards
terror" and went out for himself He
fought men like MandOt, SaylOr, Tren-
dali, Phil Brock and other tough ones
in short fights, outpointing all Of
them
WoIgast recovering from an opera
ton, decided he wanted to come back
about this time, and he was matched
with Ritchie for a four round trial
bout Richie savaged him unmerci-
fully, battering the then champion
badly.
WOIgast Takes Easier Course.
Up to this time few took Ritchie
seriously. Even after he had trimmed
WOlgast in four rounds the public
wouldn't have him and when a cham
piOnship fight was finally arranged
they made WOlgast choice Richie
was beating WOlgast, according to de-
tailed reports. when AdOlph decided
he'd rather foul out than be knocked
out
And still Ritchie couldn't get a
championship hearing When ne failed
to fight for months after that victory
the fear that he was really not Of the
proper stuff grew The miracle is that
he was ever made a favOrite over the
popular Joe Rivers.
Welsh n Dangerous Rival.
And Richie, If he can continue to
be strong at the weight, should be
able TO defend his. title against any
thing in sight Freddie Welsh appears
the most formidable opposition in
sight
Welsh is getting along in years, be-
ing past the q mark and may have lost
the keen edge Of his ability. At his
hest none of them, even the redOubt-
able Packey Mcfarland had anything
on him. 1t viii be the best contest Of
the year, If this pair can be brought
together.
Sooner OF later its inevitable that
they meet For Welsh is still urging
he has the first right TO a meeting for
the title. as he's the only man who
owns a bOna-fide decision over the
Wearer Of the championship crown.
