SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. Sit is
the general opinion in sporting cir
cles that Willie Ritchie. the light
weight champion, played safe when
he took on Freddy Welsh for a twenty
round battle at Vernon, this State. for
Labor Day. Since Welsh got the
decision over Freddy in an argument
of the same length two years ago
Ritchie has progressed wonderfully
in the lighting game, defeating Ad
Wolgast on the latter's foul and win
ming the championship Ritchie looks
like the better man now. He finally
closed with the terms of Promoter
Hugh Springer of the Brighouse
arena at Vancouver, B. c.. for a
twenty round bout with Welsh on
September l. The champion is to re-
ceive so per cent of the gross re-
ceipts. with a guarantee of $4,000
and so per cent. of the moving pic
lures. The weight is understood to
be 1873 pounds ringside, although this
point has not been decided upon def
nitely AS Welsh has agreed to any
weight Ritchie demands, there is no
hitch expected in the matter.

plays offered by big league baseball
"Bookies";
Even money that the winning team
makes as many runs in ono inning as
the loser does in all nine.
Even money that a runner does not
score after reaching third with only
one out.
Two to one that a runner does not
score from second when he reaches
there with one out.
Three 10 one that an ordinary batter
does not get 10 first
Two to one that Cobb, Wagner.
Jackson, Baker, Meyers and batters of
that class do not get to first in one
time at bat
Two to one that team does not
score in any given inning. This price
sometimes goes as high as four to one.
