seems to be an awful squabble be.

MENkE PLEADS
FOR PUG FANS
TO SAVE GAME
Sport Writer Says Spectators
Should Make Promoters
Offer Cards at Reasonable
Prices for All.
Nv FRANK q. mENke

1t Is about time for the prize fight
fans to stop being boobs aod TO stop
their present practise OF submitting so
tamely to the hold-up game that Is be-
ing carried on by the prize fight pro-
moter. the prize fight manager and the
prize Fighter.
The practise Of gouging the public
for from 81 to $40 for the privilege of
watching couple Of low brow. lazy
youths perform for about 60 minutes
SO that those athletes may be assured
of from $4,000 to $4,000 for about 80
minutes of SO called work" Is revolt
ing to an extreme degree And the
practise should be abolished.
II the fans rose up and refused to
pay those prices. the fighters very
soon would be willing to fight for
whatever price they could get. And
then the fight fans could dictate the
terms. They could refuse OF nay more
than Is cents to 81 for the best seats
at even an allstar bout That would
mean only from 5000 to $500 for the
stars. Quite q drop from $4,000 to
$6.000-but those stars would be
mighty glad to get even 5000
Freddie Welsh. In his first year as
will draw down over 100000. Think
Of 1t. A salary larger than given to
the president of the United States; an
income eight times larger than that Of
any OF our cabinet officers and from
five to 80 times greater than that earn
ed by many doctors, lawyers and 9TH
er professional men.
Welsh will have fought-or rather
appeared-in about 20 battles before
June time that marks the first ami
versary OF his elevation to the light
weight throne. Those 20 battles each
will be for about 80 minutes duration.
That means that during the year the
Briton will have worked" exactly 12ls
hours in the prize ring. And for that
work" he draws down between $751;
900 and $4,000. The other money
| that makes up his income for the
year comes from theatrical and news
paper work.
1t Is something Of a blot on the In
telligence of a civilized world that a
prize fighter who couldn't earn 5000 a
year at any other job. can milk the
public for from $4,000 to 100000 a
year simply because he can hit a little
harder blow or run from danger faster
than the next fellow.
The prize fighting element. as a
rule, is made up of lot of youths who
are too lazy and too shiftless to learn
| some regular trade or profession. That
spells work for them-and work is not
| what they want They want soft and
easy living without going to any real
trouble to secure 1t. So they turn to
prizefighting.

A number of men have been added
to the Natco working force, and HI
Pickett is scouting for same baseball
material for the team. Pucket intends
to have his team in the running from
the start. If he can dig up couple
of good ones from this increased work
ing force, he will be all set.
Ray Brunton will be given plenty OF
opportunity by the Advan-Hill team
to perform in the box this summer.
Ray has an abundance of speed with
good hop to his fast ball, and plenty
of the curve stuff. "All he needs is
CONTROL says Ray Stevens, land we
will put him up against the best in the
city. He has a tendency to get cou.
pie of men on bases before he can get
started right, and this Is pretty
shaky thing with good batter up.
He is usually pretty effective when
the bases are clogged, but what we
want him to do is to settle down be-
fore this happens"
Capable umpires are wanted by the
managers, and George Brehm will see
to it that the best men for the places
will be secured.
The Natco management has offered
the S. A. L. the use of their grounds,
which is very much appreciated by
the league. but in view of the fact that
three parks are available, and possibly
another, the proposition will not be
taken up.

ASK COMMISSIONERS
TO FIX WHOLE GUIDE

A petition to the county commits
sioners asking that the Guide Meri-
dian be improved from Bellingham
to the Boundary by opening up dit
ches and hardsurfacing with clean,
washed gravel will be presented by
citizens of this district Monday. 1t
is considered altogether likely that
the commissioners will grant the
request.
Petitions are now being circula-
ted by G. Wander Griend, e. Edison,
Nels jacobson. George Worthen, A.
H. Frazier. s. Shumway. and viii
Jackman. This committee was ap-
pointed at a mass meeting to con-
slider the paving question held in
the City Drug Store, Tuesday night.
1t is desired that everyone along the
Guide sign one of the petitions.
The commissioners have $4,000
from the permanent highway fund
to expend on the road. Bellingham
and Laurel citizens are in favor OF
constructing two miles additional as
phalt with this money, and letting
the rest of the road take care of It
self.
The meeting also took up the
question of graveling the cemetery
road from the Guide to the city
limits. The commissioners will be
urged this week to make this i'm
provement, as the road is practic-
ally impossible now.
