Ritchie's best efforts are a fighter

fighting instinct won the title for him
from Ad Wolgast, surviving a gruelling
beating from the wildcat and ulti-
mately winning on foul in the six

grit and the punch soporific saved him
from defeat at the hands of Joe Rivers,
the greatest little Mexican warrior

There's nothing to crab about
concerning that Thursday nights

for it was a wonder. There were not
discordant occurrences. Even the time

hoping it does.
OF course, we want to see all the
good wrestling Nick can produce, but
you can get too steady a diet of the

like to be accorded the opportunity.
We are still strong for that home in

Ketchel, AL Nelson and the whole
bunch of them, providing, they are not
overmatched.
We caused Santel to talk leetle
bit yesterday. He said an elder
brother wanted him to be boxer, but
he was not partial to broken noses
and cauliflower ears, via the fight
route, so he decided to be wrestler
at the age of IS years. He confesses
to So years. Says he never had any
instruction at the game he mastered,
but learned it by hard knocks or falls.
Believes he still has a few matches
left in him, and so do we, don't you
De Court?
At that, barring accidents. We still
predict the worlds heavyweight
championship Tor De Court, II he Is
handled right. He has lions heart,
the strength of an elephant, the
knowhow, and Thursday night show
ed he had a head every inch of the
way. We like that Se Court person.
although at times we have hurried his
feelings,
Boise fans were big leaguers Thurs
day night. There never was a crowd
that behaved with truer sportsman
ship.
Didn't the mat we grabbed Tor pay
for itself Thursday night. Nick? Those
men wouldn't have dared to show the
speed they did on that old excuse OF
a pad. We won't-we will never put
YOU in wrong, kid-"kid'' is good, for
Collins is so old that only a search OF
birth records, we know not where
starting, we know not where from,
will decide it. They used to ask,
How old is Ann?" but-well, its none

give us a boxing contest now.

The winter which is slowly creep
ing upon us promises to be produc-
tive of more base ball runners than
any in recent years. possiby as
result of the increased interest in
the national game during the sum
mer months just passed. The major
league clubs have temporarily dis
banded and the players have scattered
to their homes, hut the fans still
are on the job and yarns are flying
thick and fast. Quite recently it was
reported that the Philadelphia Ma
tional League park was about to be
sold and that the Phillies and Ath
letics would share Shibe Park next
season. This story was promptly de-
MED and attention called to the fact
that the Philles have a ninety nine

came the stories of the alleged efforts
on the part of the Giants to obtain
