Charlie White Accounts The
 Toughest Fight Of His Life
Coming Chicago Light Weight Tells of 2ORound Match With "Soakum' Yoakum-Willie Ritche
 Was Easy
By JAMES J. coRBETT

Charlie White, the Chicago lightweight. who has ambitions on Benny Leonard s crown, refers to his battle with Stanley c'Soakum'D Yoakum, as the toughest of his career.
 "The fight was staged in Denver on July 4, 1914" related White. "Soakum" was the western sensation at the time. They called him cave man, and any body that ever saw his photograph prob ably agrees. Yoakum was tough-oh, my yes, he was touch. He had fought 65 fellows up to that time and whipped them all No one ever had knocked him out or even dropped, him for short count.
 Realizing that he was a real two-fisted bird, l went into hard training for him. It was we'll that I did. For of all the tough customers that I ever faced, that Soakum Yoakum was the limit Just two months before I had, fought Billie Ritchie in Milwauke, while Billie was still champion, and everyone who saw that battle will tell you I whipped him by 10 miles or so. Richie was a cinch compared with Yoakum.
 I've tackled a lot of funny fighters III iHy tilllc, Dul none llh6 Odkum. or 10 rounds he had me almost bewildered couldn't figure out his twists, turns, leaps, dives and other tricks. He was here, there and everywhere, and never once did he do anything that was orth- odox in boxing. He did everything left handed, so to speak, and he had me cross-eyed trying to keep up with his shifts and turns.
 Just as the eleventh round was end ing l remembered that pal of mine had bet $50 that I'd stop Yoakum in 12 rounds. In an effort to win that money for him I went after Yoakum in the twelfth and banged with everything l had. Did l stop him? No, no. All the effect my battering had was to make him rush me more and more and do some altogether new tricks.
 Along in the middle of the eighteenth saw an opening, and zooie went my left to his jaw. It carried about every thing I had in me. Yoakum doubled up as if a derrick had fallen on him, and he went down. The referee leaned over and began to count. He had reached 'five,' and there wasn't wiggle out of Soakum. He reached eight and Yoakum still lay like a dead man. Nine, tolled off the referee.
 And then, like flash of lightning that bird leaped from the floor and came tearing in at me just as if nothing

BARONS HAD FOUR-RUN LEAD IN THE THIRD

In their part of the third the Baroni again scored two runs, when with two out and Hairston on first, Bearnie latched on to one for a circuit walk, the ball going over the right field fence. FL lis then grounded out, and the side was retired with the Barons four runs ahead
 In their half of this inning the Mobile team Got next to Coffindaffer, and forced him to retire. McMillan hit safely over second, after Ellis had been thrown out by Coffindaffer. Coffindaffer be- came rattled and walked the next two men, Colvin and Schepner. Tutwiler forced Schooner at second, but McMillan scored Ducote hit over third and Col win scored. After walking Coleman, Cof- findaffer retired in favor of Cyrus, the spitball artist. Miller, Slap's first oppp- rent singled over third, Tutwiler and Du- cote scoring, thus tying the count. Mey- CTS then hit a weak fly to Fisher and the side was out.
 In the fourth the Bears scored again, when Schooner hit safe, scoring Mc-Mil- Ian from second base Duncan threw the ball home, but according to the um- pire his attempt to prevent the run failed. It was a close decision, and Slapnicka eventually lost s arguing with ha 11r,anire over if

 Once more Yoakum went down and stood over him and helped the referee do the counting. l wasn't going to let that bird get up and get a flying rush at me again. "But that time Yoakum didn't jump up
