He says that Langford, OF the 25th
infantry. is undoubtedly one Of the
greatest boxers that has ever fought
under the marquis OF Queensberry
rules. LangfOrd is noted for his clev-
erness and that he might easily be
called a natural fighter. LangtOrd
does not usually go in for the many
brutal and unmanly tactics sometimes
used by fighters. but he is usually
clean and clever in all OF his ring
movements. When he is at work his
temper is always under perfect con
troll, he remains cool and judges eY-
cry offensive and defensive movement
of his opo1nent- He seldom strikes
unless his opponent is well within
striking distance and for this reason
he seldom misses hi mark. After he

COMEBACK
WILLIE RITCHIE.

WILLIE RICHIE, who is Geary
w steffen in civil life. is right up
there in the Iimelight and going
strong as a comeback
The former lightweight champion
tossed the surprise Of the year into
fistic bugs when he came back against
Benny Leonard in a Iour-round bout
at Frisco recently and won a popular
decision.
No matter what may be said OF the
bout-there are a lot Of ifs, ands and
butts connected with it-Ritchie staged
a comeback in the eyes Of the fisric
fans
Richie is % years old a little over
four years ago he was the lightweight
champion OF the world. having won
the title from Ad Wolgast on a foul
in 10 rounts His title bout with
Wolgast was held in san Francisco
in November. 1912, and he held the
championship a little less than two
years.
But. unlike Nelson, Wolgast and
Welsh. Richie was not unseated as a
champion by a knockout punch, and
had he kept away from England he
might still be the king OF the light
weight division today At least he
would have held his crown perhaps
year longer than he did.
Not n Lightweight.
Having been out Of action for two
years Richie has taken on lot OF
weight. He now ranks as a walter-
weight. and although there is a popu-
lar demand for a return bout between
the coast boy and champion Leonard,
Richie would scarcely be able TO get
within the lightweight limit unless he
sawed off a leg.
But there is nothing standing n
the way Of Rltchie's comeback as
sveIterWeiEht. and that's just what he
has I'm mind Ted kid Lewis and
Jack Brittou have dominated the well
terweight division for the last three
OF four years. Both are clever enough,
Britton exceptionally so. but neither
is much OF a hitter.
Richie has a terrific right-hand
wallop. He had Leonard winging TO
keep away from IL when they met on
the coast. and should he get Britton
into the ring I'm a Championship bout
he might succeed in uncrowning the
new welter champion.

COLLEGES which gave up football
\ during the war have not only lost
Eridiron prestige. but it is my belief
that they VIII find themselves haudi-
capped for several seasons to come for
the reason that during the last two
years they have not been developing
new talent.
1 do not believe. for Instance. that
football interest in the east viii CEN
ter. as it did before the war. in the
games in which Harvard. Yale and
Princeton participate. I base this as
sertion on the belief that there viii
be n number Of other teams playing
a higher grade Of football.
Plays Disseminated
The gridiron game in general how
ever. is bound TO benefit because Of
the fact that players from different
sections Of the country became as
ISOLATED in football at the various
army environments
These players-and there were hun

In summing up the general stu

football which is the backbone Of

for their crimes.
The present Turkish government Is
making desperate. almost comical, ef-
forts to convince the world that g hand

people, were respons fble for Turkeys
part in the war. whatever hopes =
might have entertained that Turkey
would be allowed To exist as an empire

HENRY FoRD's THEORIES

That professional soldiers are all
ing. that history is mostly bunk grow
Ing out Of tradition. that he has no per
sonal use for music or art and that un-
less the League OF Nations be adopted
he hopes 10 see another great war were
some Of the opinions stated by Henry
Ford yesterday from the witness stand
in his suit for libel against the Chicago
Tribune. On reading these assertions
ono is disposed to ask what manner OF
man Henry Ford can be. But on re-
calling the Ford peace ship which was
sent over in the midst OF the European
war. ito get the boys out of the
trenches by Christmas" the reader Is
not greatly surprised.
As 20 history. Mr.. Ford admits that
he knows very little about it. which ac-
counts very thoroughly for his impress
sion that IT is mostly bunk. No doubt
history contains inaccuracies. but in its
main statements Of fact II is undoubt-
eddy correct Music and art are matters
Of individual taste, but most normal
men and women enjoy the former. at
least. Mr.. Ford's declaration that IN
less the League Of Nations be adopted
he hopes TO sec another war indicates
q peculiar mental twist.
Tho fivver manufacturers theory 10
thae another big war would clear up the
situation so thoroughly that universal
peace would result. What grounds are
there for such belief? For many years
before the great war it was generally
thought that civilized nations would
never again engage In conflict But they
did. Al the end OF that struggle 1t was
thought that an agreement would be
made that would produce ideal condi-
lions throughout the world. But IT
wasn't. Another great war would pos
sibiy change the international situation.
but the theory that It would bring uni
sal peace Is a wild absurdity.
