N ENVER, COLO, Feb. t.
- Willie Richie, the light
weight champion of the
world, sat there before me in the
big mission rocking chair. for /
was interviewing him in the socie-
ty department.
| might easily nave thought l was
chatting with one of the young
aristocrats of the city, for Mr..
Richie has a dignified, refined
manner uncommon in a pugilist
He dresses with absolute taste.
For tie pin he has a horseshoe of
exquisite pearls and on the left
hand a diamond of the best quality
blazes forth.
And, girls, he has the most won
derful, flashing dark eyes, and
when he smiles there are devilish
dimples in his cheeks
Likes Women Boxers.
Il hear that you approve Of wom-
en- BOXERS" I suggested.
Yes; l believe that a woman
who can box can always protect
herself, and, besides that. the ex-
ercise does her a world of good. If
more women would try boxing they
would realize how benefiting it Is"

little shadow boxing that l might
appear clever in this fascinating
little champions eyes.
But | am for the athletic girl,
though. every time-fencing, rid
ing, tennis or anything they may
take up, so long as it is exercise.
These women who sit about all the
time don't know how bad it is for
them. If they would only get out
and walk in the fresh air they
could throw their rouge pots out of
the window, for exercise puts the
real color in the flesh"

Are you married." l asked
bIuntly. Rather a sudden change
of subject, but more on my mind
than our previous conversation.
No, I'm not" the little champion

with his hat.

HARD To
FATHOM IN THE
SOUTHERN
THRoUGHoUT the member.


ship of the baseball fra
ternity, the Southern is
known as a pitchers league" Fig
ures culled from the dope books of
1911 and 1912 prove beyond perad-
venture of a doubt that the charge
is not untrue.
Three Southern league athletes
of 1911 were in the Pacific Coast
league last season, Dickey Bay
less, who pasted for .261 mark
down here, slugged the Coast league
pitchers for mark of .31S. Doane,
who pastimed with New Orleans in
1911, raised his smuggling reputation
from .276 to 1909. Elmer Zacher.
who piled up an average of .277,
only batted .210 with Chattanooga
in 1911.
In the International league, the
difference is not quite so marked
as to three athletes, but there is
still healthy margin in favor of
the pitching class Of the Dixie cir
cult. Swacina ho1sted his record
from 294 to .317. To give due cred
it, however, it should be said that
the former Mobile manager had the
pitchers goats in this league. Noisy
Bob Higgins, who was wont to
punch hits for Chattanooga to the
tune of 239, amased a record of
.261 in the International. The ex-
ception is Joe Agler, who batted II
points higher; but nobody can ever
figure how Joe reached .264 in this
league.
Ham Patterson, with Chatta-
nooga and Nashville in 1910, only
stocked for .245, but he had no
trouble in pasting for .305 last year.
Bill Lindsay, former Pelican short
stop, who was lucky when he batted
around $50 in this league, went up
to .31S with Portland.
In the American association Rudy
Hulswitt, who barely exceeded the
200 mark under Billy Smith, bat
formerly batted .230 and there
abouts with Nashville, had
healthy looking mark of .270. Beau
miller, shortstop for Atlanta
awhile, offers an exception, drop
ping from .294 to .254.
In the Northwestern. a league
which is in Glass B, Herr Meek
hoisted his record from 800 to .346,
and Dutch" Altman, former Mem
phis third sacker, boosted his swat
mark from 1926 to 2S3.
Tendency of Southern league
graduates to bat higher in the ma
jors than down here" has often
been commented on. In some
measure, this is due to the fact
the youngsters. get better, but the
facts in the case are that the
Southern is almost as hard to bat
in as the majors, and much harder
than the Glass AA circuits.
The following table will show
that you want to subtract about
40 points from mans record in
the Pacific Coast or Northwestern.
and 20 or 80 from his American
association or International rec
ord to find what he'll bat in Dixie:
