WELSH Is FINDING 1T
HARP TO GET BOUTS
Promoters Have Grown Tired of
Seeing Fred Stall Through
His Battles.

The Wisconsin boxing commission
recently suspended Freddie Welsh
for a period of one year. and if the
suspension is lived up to by the
commission Welsh may have boxed
his last bout in the Badger state as
champion, for there is big
chance that some younger battler
Will take his title away before an
other year rolls around.
Following his bout with Richie
Mitchell in Milwaukee, Welsh
claimed that he was on the point
of being taken down with an at
tack of grip. but the Wisconsin
boxing officials did not swallow his
excuse and the suspension followed.
If the Wisconsin commission was
the only one to severely criticize
Welsh there might be some loophole
through which he could crawl. But
that's the rub. Boxing clubs in all
parts of the country have been
made the goats of Welsh's methods
OF stalling. and the result is that
Freddie is finding his field narrow
ing down. He gets fewer offers now
that he ever received before and all
because he seems content to SLOUGH

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 6.-Spying in the enemy's territory is to be a thing of the past in Pacific Coast pre- serves if all of the colleges concern ed follow the lead of California and Washington. These institutions have made a pact that in future when a representative of one side goes to look over the opposition talent he shall announce his presence, obtain pass. and stand On the sidelines. Football wiseacres say that in days gone past coaches and their represen- tatives used to assume false whisk CTS, gum shoes and other camouflage in order to "get line" on the oppo- sitions methods of attack and de fense
 Coach Andy Smith of California takes the stand that when a team is hard pressed it will uncover every thing it has, and future opponents said team can learn all there is to be learned without resorting to Sher- lock Holmes subterfuges.

 The case of McNamara attracted considerable attention at the time of the trial. the crime apparently being a most brutal and cold blooded kill ing of an inoffensive man.
