q AN FRANCISCO, Feb. THE
y circumstances attending the
wearing down and building up
of the Achilles tendon of Champion
Ritchie's left foot should serve as
rebuke to those who look upon ring
men as rough fibered mortals who
take no care of physical injuries, and
who are simply stimulated to great
er effort by pain and punishment.
Willie hurt the portion OF his anat-
omy referred to by reckless road work
in Golden Gate Park. BY the advice
of reputable physician he has cod
died the strained tendon for two
weeks or more.
A few days ago it was announced
that Richie was about to submit his
strained heel to preliminary test.
and that in the event of there being
no warning tinge when he stamped
his foot, the champion would begin
to busy himself with his spring
schedule:
So far the only thing We have had
in the way of glad tidings was
Ritchies declaration of intention in
regard to the test. We have not
learned whether the heel was tried
out. and whether it stood the ordeal.
We are hungry for news, and it is
not right to keep us in suspense. AS
the office poet says:
Fen HcAdo0 and Houston some
touch Of slight may feel
For the Western country holds it's
breath while Willie tests his
heel.
In the absence of assuring news in
respect to the Richie heel, it is
gratifying to note that the cham
pion has refused big offer, made
by Snowy" Baker for an April match
in Australia. He knows that an ac-
ceptance would interfere with his
plans for meeting Tommy Murphy
in this city in April This is step
in the right direction.
Richie has been "invalided" out of
two matches with Murphy and he
recognizes the public expects him to
settle with the Harlem lightweight
before arranging fresh contracts
There is some talk of Richie box
ing a limited bout in the East before
the Murphy date comes around This
is scarcely in accordance with what
was heard from Richie when his heel
put him out of comniNion
II was understood at that time that
the Murphy affair would have the
precedence over all contests so far as
the champion is concerned.
When all the circumstances are
considered Richie can hardly be
looked upon as making much of a
sacrifice by holding himself in re-
serve for his tilt with Murphy.

president FULTz, OF the

turned to New York and reports
that the PLAYERS are well pleased
at what they accomplished at
Cincinnati, where their demands
were discussed and disposed OF.
Asked what the Fraternity's at
titude toward the Federal
League was, he replied, with en-
phasis:
"Absolutely neutral. The Fra
ternity will not advise players
TO sign with the Federals and
will not advise them to go back
10 their old employers. That is
a matter that concerns eacn
