Should Meet Some One
Who Threatens His
Title, Is Their Cry.
By W. o. MGEEHAN.

The fact that Freddie Welsh, the
lightweight champion, will not box any
body who seriously threatens to take
the title from him is distressing
number of people. particularly the
honorable Boxing Commission. It IS
worrying this august body to such an
extent that the commissioners are
knocking their heads together, produc-
ing a hollow, drum-like sound, to de-
wise ways and means of legis!ating
Frederick's chin into the path of a
ive-ounce glove.
II is very selfish of Frederick to hog
the title in this fashion, but the crowds
who pay to see him perform with sec
and and third raters are partly to
blame themselves. When the person
who pays from one to ten iron men to
see Frederick execute some new dance
steps with guinea pig lightweight
begins to tighten the purse strings the
Pontypridd boy may be forced to do
some boxing with some real boxer.
The members of the Boxing Commls-
sion, in common with thousands OF
students of the manly art, are inclined
TO believe that Frederick has been
getting away with homicide ever since
ne won the lightweight title from
Willie Richie" Well, if the galleries
and the box seats were not pretty well
packed Frederick would have abandoned
his career of dance stepping and side
stepping some time ago.
Month after month Frederick has
entered the ring with no other motive
than to chase himself around the ropes
for thirty minutes while his enterpris-
ing manager is collecting at the box
office. After every Welsh bout the ring
follower has raised his hand and said
"Never again." But month later he
would be back for the next boxing
contest, featuring Freddie Welsh" The
philosopher who said that there was
one born every minute was right if
he referred TO the boxing fans.
The most recent atrocity planned by
Welsh was a bout with the superan-
nuated Harlem Tommy Murphy. This
is an indication of Welsh's appraisal
of the intelligence of the fight fans
II the Boxirg: Commission had not per-
emptorily cancelled the bout it would
have been held and it probably would
have Melted Welsh few thousand dol
lars.
The only thing that will bring Welsh
to believing that he should give the
fans a run for their money is boy

colt. Frederick is sensitive only in the

The local AGxing colony is preparing
to repel another invasion. This tims
it is a promoter who is threatening the
peace Of mind and happiness of the
managers of local clubs. The invader
is James Coffroth. known as sunshine
JIM" promoter of most of the high
priced bouts in California IN the days
before they legislated the disciples OF
the late Marquis of Queensberry from
the Golden State.
For a while Sunshine Jim operated
the Tia Juana racetrack. just across
the Mexican border, but the floods
came and took away most of the track
A little later a flock of Villistas ar.
rived and carried away the grandstand.
So James decided that racing in Mexico
was too lively a sport even for box
ing promoter.
Cofroth was one Of the bidders for
the Johnson-J etfries bout, but when
Tex Richard raised the ante to over
100000 James gracefully retired in
his favor. The advance agents OF Con-
roth say that he has not yet definitely
decided to endeavor TO uplift the SCI.
ence of boxing here, but that he will
give the ground thorough looking
over.
II is about .ime that one Battling
levinskv. a boxer from our own East
Side. received a little OF the credit that
IS due him The Battler all but slowed
away Jack Dillon, the conqueror OF
Frank Moran, at Baltimore the other
night. Right now James Johnston, the
boz bandit, is trying TO induce Harry
Pollok to allow young Weinert TO en-
gaoe in combat with the East Slider.
The Battler does most of his tightlng
with the left hand, on the advice Of his
guide and mentor, Dumb Dan Morgan,
the talented deaf mute. 1T is this
way" Daniel explained in the deaf al
h.bet. "If the Battler uses his right

swing. I have told him never TO use
the right without a special permit from
ne When he can beat them with the
left why should he use the other one !
Blu. one of thee days ! am going TO
give him permission to use that right
and then something is going to drop"
The law seems to be no respecter Of
prizefght managers. James Johnston
almost drew a vacation at the Atlanta
prison for importing light rays from
Canada. Now Charlie Harvey faces
trial at Montreal for aiding in the
staging of a prizefight.
"Of course the penalty is only one

Valuable Aid
TO YachtSmen
Atlantic Coast Information for
Mariners Issued in New
Serial Publication.

In order to make Immediately availa-
bye to mariners information relative to
currents, which has been recently OBJ
tanned from observations of the Coast
and Geodetic Survey and Lighthouse
Service, that branch Of the Department
of Commerce, through its superintend-
ent, +. Lester Jones, has issued, under
Serial No. 40, Tidal Currents CAT
lantic Coast" for the year 1916.
In this volume the times of slack
water are predicted for every day OF
the year at Cape Cod Canal. Pollock
Rip Slue, The Race, He'll Gate and the
entrance to Delaware Bay. The tables
are followed by list Of differences, by
means of which the time OF slack water
may be obtained from the daily predlc-
tions for large number Of other
points.
OF particular interest to cruising
yachtsmen are the descriptions of the
currents at the various lightships along
ehe coast. The greatest observed
velocities of the current at the light
vessel are: Fire Island, is knots;
Ambrose Channel, IA knots; Fenwick
Island, knots; Northeast End. -
knots; Overfalls. SO knots; Winter
Quarter, 0.S knot; Cape Charles. 1.6
knots; Tail of the Horseshoe, 2.S
kaots; Diamond Shoal, 4 knots; Cape
Lockout Shoals, 3.5 knots; Frying Pan
Shoal, 2 knots; Charleston. knots;
Martins Industry, ? knots; Brunswick,
. knots.
Moderate TO heavy winds set up
stronp currents in the direction Of the
wind. reversing or greatly accelerating
the normal currents; in fact, the prin-
cipal currents along this stretch Of
coast. when away from the larger bays,
are the wind currents. Their strength
and set depend on the direction
strength and duration OF the wind. BE
ginning with the year 1917. both the
Atlantic Coast tide tables and the gem
eral tide tables are to be greatly en-
lsrged and simplihed.
