this is the day of the short bout.
 There is no reason to doubt that If present. conditions were the same as when Jeffries held the crown Willard himself as was paid to the California boilermaker. But ten round bouts call Tor speed and skin If Jeffries had been forced to depend on these quail tiles he might never have climbed very far Jueging from what hap tiles. Jefries would have been out pointed In ten rounds by Gus Ruhlin. Joe Choyuski, Tom Sharkey. Jim Corbett and possibly Bob Fitzsim- mons. who was clever enough to have kept away for that distance if he had cared to. do so.
 If Willard fails to improve on. that showing how many of those who wor- shipped at the shrine of Jeffries will remember that their idol was often made to look Ike a joke until his strength and stamina wore down the lard is outpointed in ten round no decision affair he win be put down as another failure. and once more the old timers will be moved to lament the decadence of boxing. And unless Willard has improved to a remarkable extent since he won the title that is quite likely to happen. For those reasons 1t is probableS that the big Kansan will not arouse as much en- thusiasm as Jeffries did. although as matter of fact, Willard may be a better man than the Californian was
 Ertle Lacks Class.
 In the lighter divisions there is no one in sight who stands out as a fstic marvel ,- Apparently. Johnny Ertle. the. St Paul bantam who now ciaims the title of that division. 1t little bet uer than fair second rater. From all accounts Williams was winning easily when he. delivered the foul blow that is the basis of Ertle's claim to the honors- While Williams undoubtedly parent that he has done his best work. The Baltimore blonds one chance to achieve unusual distinction came when he encountered Johnny Kilbane at Philadelphia last spring. On that occasion WilIiafns was badly emulating the feats of Terry McGov- ern. with whom he had been com pared.
 Among the lightweights Charley White. Ted Lewis and Johnny Dundee still continue to show improvements, although none threatens to become great enough to compare favorably with the old favorites. Lewis has plenty of speed. but no other quality that stands out. He owes his success entirely to the fact that he can bop around the ring SO fast that no one has been able to catch up.
 Dundee is still to light to. make much impression on the heavier men of his division, and White seems to be unable to overcome his dislike for forcing matters in a way that would make his hitting count as it should Willie Ritchie is probably the most satisfactory performer among the lightweights- He is a good boxer and a good hitter. and as game and ag- gressive as a man can be, but for all that he has not won as consistently as a really great fighter should.

Moran sought to produce harmony among the men. The players respected him and the result was that things moved along just Aa the new baseball gem era1 had planned them.
 Manager William F. Carrigan wHl be the first playing manager to figure in worlds series in several years. He has specialized in catching his left-handed twirlres. and will be be- hind the bat in games pitched by Ruth and Leonard. Never great catcher mechanically Carrigan for being a better aid to the pitcher in determining the weaknesses of bats men. and taking advantage of this knowledge, than any backstop in the league,
 Like several other members of the Red Sox, he is a college man. He came to Boston from Holy Cross in 1907.

 As a player. Carrigan has occupied a peculiar position under several To- cal homogeneous. His practical knowledge of the game was rated so highly that manager after manager called upon him for assistance. This was particularly true in the 1912 wwrr T-f Stahl impressed Carrigan and Heinie Wagner to servie with him as joint members of an unofficial board of strategy.
 This board. which frequently had the benefit of advice from President James R. McAleer, himself an old player and manager. met twice a day during that series. in the morning be- fore members of the team gathered as body, and in the evening after the game. At the first meeting they map ped out the plan of campaign for the they discussed the failures and suc- cesses of the game which had passed, and the application of their observa- tions to those that were to come. The result was a Red Sox success.
 somewhat similar board has grown up in the American league pennant winners of this year. Carri- gan and Wagner again. are members, and the manager has called into the councils, his friend. Captain Barry, with the latter's learning from the school of Mack, and his observations on many fields, at his command.
 The combination has proved a hap py one. Carrtgan and Wagner are bound personally by the ties of near ly decade of championship as mem bers of the same team, room mates. in fact, and Carrigan and Barry bound by earlier association as mem bers of the same college team, Bar " having played with Holy Cross during Carrigan's last year there. It is believed that their deliberations will play a large part in the playing plans of the series this year.

fusal to endorse President Wilson's
proposal for a continental army of
100000 men marked the closing SEES
sion today of the seventeenth an
nual convention of the National
Guard Association of the United
States. Ashevill, \. G., was selected
as the meeting place for 1915. the
date to be decided later by the ex-
ective committee
resolution proposing that the
association approve President Will
sons plan made public in an ad-
dress by the president at the Man
haitian club, New York. was offered
by General Henry ID. Hamilton of
New York. Without debate the re-
solution. which asked that the plan
of the president of the L. S. for q
continental army be endorsed, by the
National Guard Association was re-
ferred to the executive committee.
Officers of the organization gave
as an explanation of why General
HamiltOn's proposition was not
acted upon faVorably, the fact that
General Hamilton. although mem
Der of the association. was not
delegate to the convention.
In recommending that the resolu-
ton be laid on the table" the eX-
ecutive committee reported the COM
mittee was of the opinion that the
resolution presented was fully con-
by the committee in its re-
port and that there is no necessity
for taking further action.
This ended the discussion and
after electing officers the associa
ton adjourned. 1t was understood
that the National Guard AssOcia-
ton was opposed to the continental
army plan of President Wilson and
the war department heads because
it was believed il would conflict
with the organization. Some of the
officers contended that if Il larger
