craft of Charley AnchoWitz. or Charley
White. as he is known to fistic fans.
is putting up a pitifuI howl these days
on behalf of his would-be champions
Nathan wants to know why it is that
since Benny Leonard became the
worlds champion he has refused to
recognize Charley White. He rises to
ask why " hite should be overlooked
in mentioning suitable opponents for
the new lightweight king, and why
Leonard should he so ..unclubby' now,
when only a few months ago he would
have been glad to take on White at
a moments notice.
Nathan, the answer is simple, very,
very simple, and it is to be hoped. for
the peace of fistic fans. that you will
get hep to yourself and the simple
chatter.
Charley White has had many oppor-
tunities to annex the lightweight
championship. The records show that
he met Freddie Welsh on four differ
ent occasions. three times over the
ten-round route and once over the
twenty-round distance. Did Charley
look like a champion? He did not.

were ideal to make the play fast and

Geo. Godfrey Moore, who failed to

not possess a visor. DR.. G. II. Allen,
however, predicts that he will have

that he will have the word Ger

ton to being a golfer he is something
of a tennis shark and when he was
in school on the coast played with
such net notables as Maurice Nc

One of the most interesting stories
Griffith tells is about the way he lost
the state title to Paul Hyde in 1908
after having forced him to 81 holes
Griffith had an easy chance to cor
the title, but in making his drive
placed the ball in the rough in front
