 Wells has taught boxing and has written a book in which he describes just how each move should be made When in the ring he tried to follow out implicitly the manoeuvres he laid down for his pupils. Every move was a picture. His hitting was the height of good form. Each blow was del1v- cred exactly as it should have been. On the defence, he stood up straight and avoided clinches, picking off the blows with his gloves.
 But Wells failed not only because he could not withstand punishhnent, but also because his interesting style was not practicable. When stung he never wrapped his arms around his head and waited for the storm to blow over. Nor would he seek the safety of a protecting clinch. He scorned such methods of procedure Even when dazed and blinded by a sudden crack on his impressionable chin he still sought to stand up straight. Consequently he soon re- cefved another that caused his col lapse.

SANFORD
 CRITIClSES YALE
Football Coach Says Faculty Hin- dered Football Teams
 Work |.

New Brunswick. N J., June At was announced here yesterday that Foster Sanford and Bob Loree, both former Yale football stars will assist in coaching the Rutgers college foot ball team the coming fall.
 Sanford, in a speech last night to the students, blamed what he called the fancy coaching of the Yale fac ulty for the poor showing of Yale's syridiron representatives in the last few years. ''When the Yale faculty said Sanford, thought best to curb shouting tactics of their coaches and to have the daily practice on what they called a quiet and systematic basis then it was that the Yale team went to pieces. They have taken the man out of football at YaIe.''

 Ollie was brought up in Indiana polls and about the time Benny Yam ger. Charlie Neary and Buddy Ryan were the great stars in the early '90s He did not fight under his own name, but used the good old fighting name of Jack Ryan. He went against Ben ny Yanger, Harry and Clarence Forbes, Ole Olson and others.
 It was during a fight he had with the famous Buddy Ryan at Tatter- sails in Chicago that Ollie had a fun ny experience. He was matched with Buddy at 122 pounds. but never thought that his opponents name was Ryan.
 During fierce mix-up in the sec ond round the crowd began howling: Good boy, Ryan, and 'sgive it to him Ryan," until Ollie thought he had all the best of it and was whipping the pride of Chicago. When it was over his second asked Ollie what made him fight so good after the second round and he replied: Why, I heard the crowd shouting for Ryan and I thought it was for me, and that I must have the other fellow going. I forgot that Buddy's name, too, was Ryan. It gave me the encouragement, otherwise I might have put up a rot ten fight"

 Later on he took to baseball again and began ump1r1ng in the Central league and after three years work he joined the American association staff. with which he is still making good.

Ollie still follows the boxing game closely and has a great liking for Ray Bronson, the Indianapolis welter weight champion, whom he says would be champion of the world if he was only little more aggressive in his battles.
 There is no doubt, however" says Chill, that knowing the fight game thoroughly helps an umpire. Players are not so apt to bother you and try to do things to you, for they know that a man who knows how to box, even if smaller, can take care of him self in pretty good shape. That is one strong point in favor of boxing for baseball umpires."

ROBERTAILLE HAS NEW LONDON'S GOAT
Veteran TwirIs for Mechanics Who Beat Planters in Close
 Battle

New London, June 4.-Chfc Rober- tailIe was tapped for two runs in the opener at Plant field yesterday but the old boy steadied after that and eventually beat New London by 3 to 3. RobertaiI1e allowed only seven hits. His control was good, only one pass being allowed. Although Rober- heIders working snapping up ground CTS and easy flies. Three double plays helped him.
 Opposed to Robertaille was Red Waller who wore Bridgeport uni form in 1910. Waller didn't show as much as in former years and the Me chanics banked him hard but gener- ally straight at some fielder. Harvey Russell almost knocked Walters leg off with a smash and the pitcher stopped several other hard swats with his body. Waller was jabbed for eight belts of which Bowman got three.
 The Bridgeport fielding was excel lent The only error was made by Jake Bou1tes, who returned to the game after a brief vacation caused by an injured ankle. Bob Stow took ten chances including several dazzling stops Steamer Flanagan got his daily hit and it came at just the right time. In the fifth with the score to 2, Flanagan soaked a liner that Wal Ter managed to touch with one hand, and the winning run was made by Bowman. There was no scoring after that.
 Owing to Outfe1der Briggs .suspen- sion and the fact that Outfe1der Neal on is laid up as a result of Briggs as- sau1t, New London had to use two new men in the pasture. Shippie and Walker were the newcomers. The for mer got hit. The score:

MCARTY WARNED
 TO QUIT FIGHTING
CBufalo Enquirer.)

Bill O'Conne1l, the veteran Chica- go physical culture exponent and training expert. is one who advised the dead Luther McCarty to give up t11e boxing game some time ago be- cause of his physical condition In an interview yesterday O'Connen said:
 There was something wrong with the boy. When he first started in at my place I advised him to quit the game when on two occasions I saw him almost faint from hard body blows delivered by boys in training. 1IcCarty's face would take on a pe- culiar look.
 ' His eyes would go almost closed and deep wrinkles would form on his fore head I asked him one day after a particularly hard workout how he felt and he told me that he had a kind of sinking sensation all overs It was then I told him wanted him to stay away from the gymnasium and leave the boxing gloves alone. While the boy had the appearance and physique of a Hercules, the slightest punch in the body would cause him to cIinch and hold on in a friendly bout"
 Bill was asked why this weakness had never asserted itself in his pre- vious battles.
 4t-'Because," went on the professor,
 McCarty had never been punished around the body In his bout with Palzer at Los Angeles he was scarce Ky touched by the gloves of the big. awkward novice. It takes more than one punch to kill 9 healthy man. and even admitting the physician's theory that attended Luther. that he died of peralysis of the heart caused by a blow. hundreds of other fighters have received the same kind of a blow and 1t has only caused temporary uncon- Bciousness-
 Taking it for granted that McCarty had a weak heart. his physical condi- ton must have been awfuIly bad not to withstand the force of the blow That was delivered by Pelky When man comes from his corner, partfc- s1iarly in the first round of battle, he 1s all frightened up. His muscles are tense and his first act generally is to sfee1 out ms man. According to the reports it was a little short arm blow delivered while the men were in close that caused McCarty's death It is almost a physical impossibility for a man to deliver a blow that would prove fatal unless he measured the distance and then sent 1t in with all the strength of his body"

The Bridgeport players who have just returned from a two day engage ment in New London, say the feeling is very bitter against Outf1elder Joe Briggs. who bruta1ly assaulted Out fielder Nea1on during Monday S game. When Briggs walked in after the fight the fans Jeered and missed him. He left New London Monday night and the fans don't want to see him again.
 It is said that Briggs is an eccen- trio individual with a very bad tenn per. He had no reason to get sore at NeaIon except that Briggs felt an- moved when McGamwelIs hit got by. Nealon recovered the ball and threw home but didn't catch Steamer F1ana-# gan, who was steaming for the plate. Then Briggs said something to Nealon and the fight started. President O'Rourke, who went to New London yesterday to investigate the matter, talked with Manager Burns and sew eral New London players. After hear ing their stories he announced that he had fined Briggs $10o and suspended him for the season.
 Tom Logan. who was let go by Springfield because he couldn't hit. went to Fall River with the New Eng land league and made four hits in his first game. The Springfield Union re- marks that he will go against easier P1Lcn1nS Tn that league.
 Pitcher Paddy Green of HoIyoke is quarantined at his home in Blandford, Mass He went to visit his family last Sunday and found two of the children had smallpox in mild form The health officer came along and told Green he'd have to stay in the house for month.
 A pitcher who will bear watching by big league scouts is Doc More of Sprin aheld He has been hdng1ng some fine games this season. Yester- day he shut out Hartford by to 0.
