ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES


 1a02-Jem BsIcher, champion of Eng land, and Joe Borks began their fourth battle at Camberwen Fair, near Lon don, but the. bout was not concluded until the following day. In that era of pugiIism boxers did not spend. months or years in ioquacfties before entering the ring. Both Belcher ana his old enemy, Berks, met at the fair. and, after a few hot words, adjourned to the yard of a tavern to have it eut. Borks was somewhat under the in fluence. so after a few blows had been exchanged the champion consen- ed to settle their differences the foI- lowing day. The principals and fans met in. a churchyard near Hyde Park Both men were hadIy punished, and once according to contemporary ac- count, the blood gushed from Borks throat. and he collected it in his mouth and squfrted it over Belcher." " In the 18th round Berks was Stretched out but his seconds stuffed a nader chief in his mouth. so he could not sholIer nuff.s. and tried to force him to go on. He refused. and lem was still champion.

CARRlGAN HAS GREAT
 PRAISE FOR LEONARD

Manager Bill Carrigan, of the Red Sox, has nothing but praise for Dutch Leonard It has been Leonard s good work more than anything else that has kept the Red sox in the fight.
 never saw pitcher who inn proved so greatly in one season as long as I have been in baseball and I have been connected with the national pas- time for quite whf1e,'' said Carrigan Last season Leonard was consid cred as a world beater all over the circuit.
 He has all the stuff in the world and knows how to use 1t. Then he also has goon control. which is kicking in so, many southpaws.
 z. There are many who think that tries to whim every batter that faces him. This is not true, though have been behind the bat in almost every game he has worked this year and I know what am talking about
 Its just 8 case Of the batter miss on batter he does not put any more on the third one just to get credit for 9 strikeout.
 Some of his battles this season have been little short of sensational The opposition hardly ever gets more than two runs off him. If am not mistaken the highest number count ed off him in a single, battle this year was five and that happened just once. Eff we win the pennant-and I think we have good chance of doing ir, although we are little behind-much of the credit will have to go tos Leon ard. When the other fingers were slipping Dutch was winning regularly. and it has kept us in the pennant 1ght..'
 At the end of the season Walter Johnson will be forgotten and Leon ard will be called the king of the pitchers, :. is the way Leonard's mates

President -OsRourlxe wired each of the Eastern association magnates telling just what the outlook is.s He stated that none Of the New Britain business men came forward last night to help Owner Scinski retain the club in the Hard ware City. The president asked the different nagnates for instructions re- garding the future policy and the Wa terbury management wired this morn ing asking to have a, league meetlng called at once to settle thesNew Brit mates will probably make known their views before tomorrow
 It is reported that the New Britain team may be sent oE the road for the balance of the season. This IS Ire quently done in other leagues. Tho of $75S a game and would make a little more than travelling expenses
 The Boston Braves saw the end of their winning streak yesterday when they lost to Cincinnati by to 1. They didn't lose any ground in the pennant race, though for the Giants were beaten in Pittsburgh Boston didn't use one Of the trio Of winning hurlers but relied on Esrutcher. He did well, although he was not quite good enough to win. Speaking of the Bos- ton club recalls the fact that Pitcher Rudolph Of the Braves had a trial with New Haven several years ago under the name of King. He won a couple Of games, but soon deserted the club He was attending college in New York at that time and therefore played under an assumed name.

BASEBALL GOSSIP

Grant, subbing all over the inhsld has acquired batting average of elose to $50 and is leading the National league by g wide margin Last season a fury all this year. His fielding too. has been uniformly high-class Gt Isn't unlikely that he will continue to pastiIne at third just as long as he maintains his present batting form.
 McGraw isn't taking any chances on being tied up with lot of crfrplod athletes He has taken with him into the west every abIe-bodied man at his command. including pitchers HodFe and Royce the college phenouas. a;nd one Walter Holle, the left-handed flrag Spokane club of the Northyestern league Holke is given the custnnaty recomrne that is he cou1eM as a sure enough Hal Chase, without Quince Halls nasty disposition.
 Jeff Tesreau. who went as far aas tkG Paeif1c coast with the MrGraw -Co1nis- key troupers last fall, has accepted the invitation of Prank Bancroft to exhfh- iting gaming it next autumn with the aIl-star team that the Reds blieinsas manager is planning to play against Connie Efaek's American 1esguers.
 
 Chief Meyers probably will do very little catching for the next week or So. He has a game elbow. in addition to a sore thumb ,and though he could finish a game for Mclean, if inpeIled to 1t by necessity. will hardly draw q saart- ing assignment much before the s. Louis series.
 Until the Giants committed their late rally. Bob Harmon was one Of the leagues most effective beavers against them. He has pitched against them in every series this year ,and, iiaclud ing yesterdays affair, has lost to them only twice.
 Mike Mowrey. internationally reIeas- leased by the Pirates last Saturday night is likely to land with the Brook lyn Dodgers. according to gossip. Mike was an awful bust for Pittsburgh aEf- ter starting out as though he intended to establish a new record for third base play. but it may be that a change will do him good.

but then babies of mothers who are
not married are different. The doc
tors win tell you so.
And the doctor doesn't care who
buys the baby. Nor why they buy
the baby nor what they will do with
the baby.
What does it matter? Isn't it an
illegitimate. child and haven't we de-
clared that the children must suffer
for the sins of the fathers?
You see it is so easy to make the
baby suffer It cannot battle back
It just has to endure And by the
time it isn't a baby any more it has
grown used to enduring and it ac-
cepts our treatment as part Of the
unkind world into which it came from

their laws.
And the parents have been in the

in avoiding consequences.
And so the father never comes for
