Srecisl to The Washington Herald.
Boston, Mass. April 19.-Jinmy Walsh
former graduate athletic manager at
Georgetown. leaves today for Madison,
Me-, where he will engage in the manu-
featuring business.
Walsh starts from the lowliest position
and expects to spend about three years
learning all there is to know about the
manufacture of wooden cloth. in this
manner fitting himself to become man.
ager of the big mill.
Speaking of Georgetown athletics. Mr..
Walsh said: II feel confident that
Charley Cox will be the right man to
handle athletics at the Washington in
stitution. He is a hustler. knows the
game, and Georgetown was lucky to get
him. / shall always have a warm spot
in my heart for the Hilltoppers, and no
person in New England will watch their
progress closer than myself"
Walsh is looking fine and very en-
thusiastic over his new business venture.
The woolen mill in Madison. Me, where
he is slated to go, has been owned by
the Walsh family for years. and has al
ways been a paying proposition.
That Jimmy will make good in his new
venture his many friends here and in
the National Capital certainly believe.

BOWLERS DECIDE TO
DISCARD LOADED BALL
Action of National Bowling Associa-
ton Prohibits Its Use-New York
Extends Invitation.

Atlantic City, April 19-At the annual
convention of the National Bowling Asso-
citation today final action was taken on
the question which has agitated bowling
circles for years, whether or not the
loaded ball should be allowed and 1t was
decided to entirely do away with the ball
This rule goes into effect Immediately
with a clause stating that for a short
time, load UP to three ounces will be
allowed. but that even this will be done
away with as a better bali is made by
the manufacturers. New York City ex-
tended the only invitation for the 1915
tournament. The board of governors will
later decide where the congress will be
held.
officers were reelected as follows:
President, Elmer Z. DUNCAN, Philadel-
phia; vice president, William Cordes,

Stray Items
of Sport
By ANDREW p. o'CoNoR.

The failure OF Willie Ritchie to stop
Tommy Murphy in twenty rounds OF bat
ting out on the Coast did not surprise
those who are familiar with the indom-
| liable gameness and stamina of the Har-
| lem fighter. who. while not of champion
snip caliber. has weathered the storms
of hundreds of battles against the best
boys that the world has produced since
his advent into the arena in 1903.
The Herald predicted a victory for
Ritchie, who, while not the greatest
champion who has held the title in that
division. is about the best of the present
crop. which is not throwing any bouquets
at the boys who are clamoring for a
crack at Ritchie.
While We sometimes lose patience with
writer's who are constantly harping on
the theory that boxers of today are in
ferior to those Of the old school. we must
admit that in certain classes the ring is
shy on high-class material
Terry McJioVern, when in his best form,
would have no trouble in cleaning up the
entire bunch of legitimate light-weights.
He knocked out Murphy in one short
round. a feat which Mcfarland. Ad VOL
gost, Willie Ritchie, and hundreds of
others have failed TO accomplish. which
proves the class of the great McGovern,
Frank Erne with ease.
Freddy Welsh. the English lightweight
champion. who holds a twenty-rOund de-
Cision over Ritchie. will press his claim
for a match for the worlds title. which
Ritchie cannot ignore in the future as he
has in the past. and retain the confidence
of American sportsmen. who demand
action from champions. where they are
physically able to defend their title.
Ritchie should have improved since his
defeat at the hands OF Welsh. on Novem-
ber II. 1911 As neither of these boys are
hard hitters the bout should go the
full twenty rounds, the result OF which
will depend entirely upon the physical
condition of the boxers 1t will be an
even match. and while We hope the best
man will win, we hope his name is
Ritchie.
The match for the heavyweight cham
pionship of England. between Bonn
harder Wells present holder of the title.
and Jim Coffey. the Dublin giant, will
take place at the National Sporting Club,
London. on June %. Peggy Bettison.
matchmaker of the y. S. G.. has just
sent Billy Gibson a check for expenses for
himself and Coffey.
Gibson probably knows what he is do
ing, but we hope the check which Mr..
Rcttison sent him is for an amount suf-
ficient to cover expenses for the round
trip.
Wells is as clever as a town clock, with
the conformation of Apollo the strength
of Hercules. and the heart Of Shanghai
rooster. but at all times he is as dan
gerous as d Turk running amuck in an
Armenian village.

OWENS FOR ASSOCIATION.

Special to The Washington Herald
!, Indianapolis, Innd., April 19.-President
Chivington announced last night that he
had signed Clarence c'Brick'D Owens as

Before going to the National League at
the beginning of last season he had sery-
ed four years as an umpire in the asso-
ciation. He resigned from the National
League in the middls Of the season and
signed with the International League.
Chivington said he had been negotiating
with President Barrow, of the Interna-
