club circuit. Providence will be
represented in the league and Will

Canton, O., March 17.-Jack Britton
of New York won the welterweight
championship of America here to-
night by knocking out Ted Lewis in
the ninth round of a scheduled twelve
round bout. The end came after two
minutes and ten seconds from a long
swing to the jaw. The veterans
fought at catchweights.
Lewis did not. land five clean
blows. The bell saved him in the
sixth round when he was knocked
down three times. Referee Matt
Hinkel had to break them on several.
occasions but Lewis did not show any
signs of Weakening. Britton drove a
right to Lewis nose and the Eng
lishman staggered back He went
down for a count of four from a
stiff left to the jaw. Lewis stag
gered to his feet and onto the ropes,
where Britton's left to the jaw
again put him down for a CONT of
six. Lewis got to his feet slowly and
before he could cover Britton had
sent in another left swing that forced
him to his hands and knees. He
took a count of eight and was in a
clinch at the bell. From that time
until the final blow Lewis tried
hard to avoid the inevitable. Though
ne uld not 90 much damage. BTU
ton was master in the eighth and it
appeared as if Lewis was stronger.
At the start of the ninth round
Lewis rushed from his corner. Brit

cred with a right to the body and a
left to the jaw, staggering Lewis.
Lewis blocked a long right swing.
Britton rushed and planted four jabs

SPORTING NOTES.

Walter Johnson apparently is the
only American league pitcher who has
twice retired the side on three
pitched ball. The Fire Ball King
did this in the sixth inning of the
game on May 26, 1913, against Phil
adelphia and in the second inning Of
the game of June /, 1916, against st.
Louis. Other American league pitch
ers who have retired the side on three
pitched balls as reported by the
Spalding record book, are Counbe, of
Cleveland against Washington, in
the sixth, on August 1885: T[lepfer
of Cleveland, against St. Louis. in the
first, on June n, 1917, and Craft, of

Is it necessary to have an infIeld
of young ball players to be in shape
to fight for a major league cham
pionship
Vice President and Manager John
ny AIcGraw of the New York Gil
ants apparently does not think so,
judging from the men he is counting
on to be at the positions OF the inner
defence this season. The players he
has on the list are Hal Chase, Larry
Doyle, Arthur Fletcher, and Heinie
Zimmerman. This disprOves the idea
that a players DAYS of real activity
are nearly at an end when he reaches
the age of g.. The fact is al four of
the players mentioned are over 80
and are veterons in the game.
An odd way of retiring man, as
reported in the Spalding Record Book,
cropped up in the sixth inning OF the
Cleveland Philadelphia game of Sep
TENDER 10, 1916. Haley was on first
when Lambeth pitched to Witt. The
ball batted by the Athletic shortstop
hit Lambeth's glove and then contin-
ued on and bouced off Wambsganss'
shin, Chapman recovering it and max
