IN THE RING
By w. w. NAUGHTON

San Francisco, Feb. 20.-Occasion-
ally in pugilism you come across a
name with punch, such as "Trip
hammer" Kelly or Knockout" Brown.
Again your notice is drawn to names
which appear to be misfits, for instnce
Gilbert Gallant. The latter is almost
as medieval as Sir Galahad and sug-
gests vizors and lances rather than
five ounce gloves.
Now they have "Silent Leo" down
at Millet's training camp. This is what
they are calling Leo Houck, the Phil,
adelphia middle weight, and the rea'
son is obvious.
In the matter of reticence and re-
serve it is said he out billions Jack
Dillon. The latter's daily conversa-
tional output consisted, as a rule of
"good morning" and "good evening" /"
with a casual Eyes" or "no" on Sun
days and holidays. Houck, they say,
simply mods.
Houck is here to box Billy Murray
at Coffroth's DAILY City arena next
Monday afternoon and he is being
sized up daily by the fans. While he
is untalkative to a fault, he is a
pleasant faced, determined looking
fellow and he goes as unconcerned
about his work in the presence of d
crowd as though he had the gymna-
SUM to himself.
Being in the first flight of later
day middle weights, those who had
not seen Houck pictured him as one
of your crouching, in-fighting bat
tiers like Klaus and Papke. He is
nothing of the kind. He stands as
straight as files on parade and holds
his gloves rather close to his body.
Houck handles himself like the
fighters of 20 years ago, but at the
same time he is remarkably alert and
quick to take advantage of openings
Countering seems to be his strong
point.
He seldom takes a punch without
giving one in return and notable

MURPHY TALKS OF COMING
BOUT WITH WILLIE RITCHIE

Chicago, Feb. 21.-Tommy Murphy,
next opponent of Willie Ritchie in a
long contest for the lightweight
championship, passed through this
city last evening on his way from the
west to his home in Flatbush, there
to rest up after strenuous few
weeks on the vaudeville circuit. With
him went Mrs. Murphy and the baby
that is the pride of the Murphy house
hold.
/ Tommy says the articles are signed
and delivered for the Ritchie match,
which is now set for April II, and
that he is convinced there will be no
hitch in the twice postponed match.
The veteran New Yorker modestly
contended that he has chance with
Ritchie who he thinks is not the really
greatest light weight we ever had.
At the same time he lodges all ref
erences to Ritchie's courage, or lack
of it, as contended by some of the
critics on the coast.
"He was hurt all right this last
time, Murphy said. "There was so
much money in the contest that l do
not see how he could have faxed an
injury just to dodge a battle"
Murphy will return to the coast
in time to put in at least two weeks
of the hardest kind of training be-
fore the contest.
While Murphy was leaving town
Jack McGuigan of Philadelphia, one
of the best known fighting managers
and promoters in the country, was
coming in. Jack left on the Santa Fc
last night for San Francisco, where
he is to. handle Leo Houck in his bat
tie with Billy Murray, a Pacific coast
middle weight.

Maury Diggs' Diary

San Francisco, Feb. 21.-Impres-
sions of life in the county Jail have
been recorded in letters to fellow
prisoners written by Maury Diggs,
who is waiting in an Ingleside cell
for trial in the superior court on a
charge made against him by Miss
Ida Fearing, II year old girl.
According to one letter with which
Diggs has been beguiling the drag
ging hours of Imprisonment, he is liv-
ing in the apartments once occupied
by Abraham Ruef., The literary doc
ument is embellished with a sketch
of the county pail which gives an
idea of the artistic genius that made
Diggs notable state architect.
"We are quartered now in the ex-
elusive wing occupied only by those of
note" writes Diggs. "With very lit
tie extra blarney we were able to Sc
cure the apartments once occupied by
Ruef."
In similar vein he writes of the
daily round.
"The amusement of the guests is
phenomenal. There is never silent
moment and peals of laughter can be
heard even unto the wee small hours
of early morning, denoting the merri-
ment of the pleasure seekers.
"The attaches are all dressed in
livery of tan, beautiful to gaze upon
in their dignity and authority All are
pleasant and willing to do what they
want to do"
Imperial Valley press., 1914-02-21

feature of his style of boxing is the
speed with which he strikes back.
He delivers snappy punches without
drawing back his elbow, his short
choppy left being probably as eff
fective blow as he employs. Then
he has right hand drive at the heart
with which he times his opponent to
nicely and which no doubt carries
plenty of force when used in a real
battle
Yesterday Houck spared with Nor
man Stone and Eddie O'Keefe and
while he worked out briskly, he made
no attempt to crowd his partners for
the entertainment of the onlookers.
He allowed his men to set the pace,
in fact. When they boxed at range
he followed suit, and when they car
ried the fight to him he leaned in AMI
sent in hooks and uppercuts in a way
which showed that he has good COM
mand of both fists.
From what Houck showed he should
put up highly interesting bout with
Billy Murray. He boxes in much the
same style as the local middle weight
and this should enable Murray to feel
more at home than if he were sent
against a fellow who was bent on
rushing in with lowered head and
making Donnybrook of it.
