Major Leagues Urged to Invite Sol
diers and Sailors to Ball Games.
r1AHAN

New York. Dec. s.-The big topic be-
fore the major leagues at their annual
meetings next week unquestionably
will be the adoption OF war policy.
How to conduct baseball during the
period Of the war appears paramount
in the minds of the magnates. The
question Of how the magnates may
best show their patriotism also sp-
pears to interest them quite a bit
Various suggestions, some good.
others silly. have been offered as to
how the big leagues may best show
their patriotism. The most extreme
one came from Branch Hickey, presi-
dent OF the Cardinals. who advocates
turning all baseball profits over to the
government during the period of the
war. Such a suggestion is not sound,
and needless to say never had a chance
Of adoption.
II the major leagues care TO adopt
a real patriotic program next week
there is nothing they can do which
Will put them in more favorable
light before the fans of the country
than to announce that all men in uni
form. whether Of the army. navy, ma
rines or tho uniforms of any of our
allies. will be admitted free to all ball
parks next season and any other sea
sons IS long as the war lasts. An ef-
fort also should be made TO get the
permission Of the government to per-
init these brave lads to enter ball
parks without the payment Of a war
tax. which will be eNaCted from other
passholders.

Chief BENDER IS

Indian Pitcher Is Strong Advocate
of Gun Sport-Tells
Own Story.

Every man and woman. boy and
,iTl, who has read the sporting news
Knows of Chief Bender, the great
est of Indian baseball pitchers. Trap
shooting is the hobby Of the Chip
pewa. Here Is what he has to say Of
that sport:
BY CHARLES ALBERT BENDER.
l can't see why every man should
not be a trapshooting bug" Ger
tainIy, must confess that the mi
crobe has got me-" And there Is a
logical reason why.
without a doubt the love for trap
shooting and hunting Is inherent with
every man who lays claim 70 the
throb of red blood in his veins. The
fever Is just naturally bred in the
bones 1t may lay dormant for a
while, but, sooner or later, it's bound
to assert itself.
What man Is there who cannot looA
back over the years and recall an
irresistible youthful desire to, own, a
real gun?
What man Is there who hasn't
heard the call of the big outdoors?
And what man is there who could
play the role of spectator at a trap
shooting competition without expert
encing a desire to take a crack at the
flying clays himself and show the
other fellow how to smash 'en?
The old adage that a man is only a
grown-up boy still holds good. The
latent desires of youth are bound to
crop up. II you doubt 1t, pay a visit

HARRY GREB PUZZLES
best ring EXPERTS
Smoky City Buzz Saw Has Power
to Wear Down His Opponents.

Fight fans and fighters are still try
ing to figure out the Harry Greb prob
lem. Fans are utterly unable to faith
ON the reason for Greb's success in
the ring. and even men who have bat
tied him have vastly different ideas
concerning the Pittsburgh middle
weight. They differ on the cause of his
great showing, but seem to have a
unanimous idea Of the effect.
George Chip, the erstwhile Newcastle
miner. has been against the Smoke
City buzZ-saw a couple Of times and
has some suggestions to make about
him. Chip also is very well satisfied
with what has gone and Is none too
eager to have any mort of the Greb
game.
I've had plenty Of chance to study
this fellow" said Chip recently. and
have reached the conclusion that he
has Just one trick that makes him
good. That is his ability to make an
opponent so gosh-darned tired that he
can't keep up the pace Greb sets.
That's all there is to It. II YOU want
to beat Greb you've got to figure out
some way of merely sticking along
with him. Unless a man is in perfect
condition he hasn't got a chance with
'Greb unless he should happen to catch
him with a solid swat on the chin and
knock him out. That also is almost
impossible, for Greb has an extremely
effective defense. without seeming to
have any at all. His defense doesn't
look like anything at all because he
handles himself so awkwardly, but just
the same nobody Is able to puncture
him to any great extent
Il do not agree with those who say
The Washington herald., 1917-12-10

Personally, like all outdoor sports.
The bond between baseball AMI my
self Is practically unbTeakable. Golf,
too. comes in for its share OF atten-

best work. For the last few weeks I

CRYS Of FAKE GAME
From POOR SPORTS
Mike o'Dowds Unexpected Victory
Was Well Earned One for
St. Paul Battles.

New York. Dec. s.-Al Mccoy's
ability to assimilate punishment
caused a good many Of the wise ones
to get down ON him when he met
Mike O'Dowd. the St. Paul mitt>push-
er IN New York recently and lost his
claims to the middle-weight title.
O'Dowd, up to that time. had not
established himself in the eyes Of the
flstic public as a guy with q mean
punch. although he was admittedly q
rough citizen. Mccoy. on the other
mitt. had swapped wallops with most
Of the good ones. and among them
heavy hitters such as Jack Dillon was
at his best And Al always man
aged to keep on his tootsies and stag
ger through ten rounds of the tough
est kind of going without losing his
sky-piece. So the wise birds got down
their dough that he wouldn't be fab
bergasted by o'Dowd.
When O'Dowd won the title there
was a great wall from the spectators
who had backed Mccoy. Some Of
them were gentlemen who generally
have the inside track on the dope. and
when they saw their perfectly good
Liberty Bond folder slipping away
they yelled: Fake! Frameup! and
few other things that cannot be prin
ed here.
They claimed It was all a cook-u
between the two boxers and the
managers to bid goodbye to tn
Frawley law with a big kiking, an
the fact that moving picture me
were on hand was pointed to as
sign that the movie men were tippC
OF to what was going to happen.
There werer about steen thousand
different opinions expressed after the
highland 1t was a fight, at that
but no one bobbed up with the real
low-down to prove, that the bout was
stewed up in advance. The fact that
no one had looked for Freddie Welsh
to shoot-the-chutes when he met and
lost to Benny Leonard and that no
movies Of that change of the light
weight title were taken. was prob
ably responsible for the fact that
the movie mcl were ON hand when
O'Dowd met Mccoy. They didn't
want to take chances of the dope be-
ing spilled a second time with no
films to record the event.
And there is another argument
against the howlers which seems rea-
sonable enough.
hCOOys lHOu6H ne ndS ucNcE Dccl
very active as a middle-weight cham
pion, loved that title like a mother
loves her cheeild. He wouldn't have
parted with it for the entire gate
receipts. and We know that at the
prices charged at the Clermont Rink
for that fight there wasn't enough
money in the house to pay any cham
pion to lay down. OF course. there
have been cases where somebody s
bankroIl on the outside was brought
into play, but in this case it doesn't
look reasonable.
O'Dowd will make. or should make,
a popular middle-weight champ. He
is a rough and ready battler and he
is willing to mix it with any man
they dig up for him with the possible
exception of Michael Gibbons, his
brother townsman. for whom he has
great and awe-inspiring respect.
O'Dowd used to be a sparring partner
of the Gibbons boys and he knows
just what Michael packs around in
his two mitts.

PAY LIVES
in FOOTBALL SEASON
Gndiron Sport Claims Nine Youths
of High School Teams.

High school students led other
victims In football casualties. nine Of
the thirteen victims of the great
college game f>r 1911 being high
school youths.
Not a college football player was
numbered in the victims.
OF the other four, one was a mem
ber OF a navy yard team. two be-
loaGed to college freshmen teams
and one was a professional player.
The thirteen deaths this year. while
not setting a new low record, showed
that the danger in the game has
been lowered. as It is estimated 50
per cent more football has been
played this year than ever before,
the increase being caused by games
at army camps. II is OF interest to
note that of all the thousands who
played football at cantonments and
camps there was only one casualty.
that at the Charleston navy yard al
ready mentioned.
The lowest number of deaths from
football during a season was in 1911,
when a dozen casualties were record
ed. Last year there were II victims.

1917 to - in 1893.

FITZPATRICK PLANS
To Invade PANAMA
Title Bouts May Be Held on Isthmus
or by Promoters at Tia Juana.

New York, Dec. 9.-Though Jess
Willard has been quoted to the eff
feet that he will not enter the ring
again to defend his skypiece until
after the war is over. there are other
champions a whole lot more popular
than the big cowboy, and with New
York wiped of the-fistic map, pro-
mOters in other parts are beginning
to put out feelers for the staging Of
championship bouts, though the
chances appear slim.
Samuel Fitzpatrick, who one time
was trainer and manager of John Art
Johnson, Is one of the many pro-
moters, or would-be promoters, who
is keeping an ear close to the ground.
Sam has been revelling in a dream
which includes an invasion of Ian
anna with q troupe of boxers. and of
course he would like to take at least
one champion along with him.
Panama, by the way. permits the
staging of twenty-round bouts, and
several American boxers who have
been down there say that boxing is
growing in popularity with the pass
ing of every month.
But Panama is by no means the
only spot where promoters are keep
ing tab on things flstical. On the
far-away Pacific coast Jimmy Con-
roth and several others, including
Jack Kearns, are bidlng their time
in the hope Of pulling of a number
Of big championship fights at Tia
Juana. The main drawback is the
fact that Tia Juana is Just about five
thousand leagues from nowhere, and
In this day and age a promoter has
to hang a large and juicy bundle OF
coin before the eyes of any champion
to entice him into the ring for a title
match. So, for the present, the Tia
Juana dream is a rather uncertain
proposition.
Jack Curley. who hasn't had a lot
to say Of late, is known to be cook
ing up some fistic cards which, 1t is
believed, he will attempt to stage ac
New Haven, and Milwaukee promot-
ers are expected to bloom out with q
number of attractive cards between
now and New Years Day.
Ted Kid Lewis is practically the
only champion, aside from Willard,
who hasn't had on a suit Of khaki,
and Ted, being a British subject may
be dolled up in warsome togs before
long. Leonard and Kilbane have both
been designated as boxing instructors.
while Pete Herman, who has the best
claim on the bantam-weightt title, has
been drafted Into the national army.
