johnny Wilson. the middleweight

Woodrow Wilson by Joe Williams
OF the Cleveland News. The mid

with Bryan Downey on Labor Day
and t~wenty-four hours before the
time set for the bout the champion
backed out claiming a small
growth inside the right nasal pass

famous quotations, ''TuD proud to

News as accountable for the action
Of the champion.
Wilson may be barred from fight
ing in Ohio. and the Ohio night fol-
lowers may endeavor to blacklist
him in other states. It II known
that the Italian boxer has not been
much of a champion since taking
the crow from the wild Irishman,
Mike OtDowd-
The Wilson episode is just an
other cause for a comparison OF the
fighters of today and yesterday.

out the need of a governing board
for boxing, like all other sports
have.
II Babe Ruth.s drives didn't have
an angle Of elevation on them that
permits them to sail owe the bar
riers it is likely there would be
many players injured
Ruth has said that his only fear
IN putting all his power behind the
ball when he hits is that some play
er might not have time to get out
Of the way.
Nc batter ever drove a ball as
fast and as hard as the Bambino.
The direction OF his knocks is no
secret. They all go towards the
right field. First basemen play a
short right field when Ruth comes
up and the third basemen and
shortstop swing over back of sec
ond.
The pitcher Is IN the most danger
when Ruth hits. II he drove the
ball straight back the man on the
mound wouldn't have a chance to
duck it or protect himself.
So Babe just screws his aim on
the right field wall when he is sock
ing. Balls that he fails to lift
bound to the first base territory like
a rife ball. Many of them go right
through for base hits. so fast do
they travel.
So it Is lucky for the felders,
lucky for Babe and lucky for Hug
gins that Babe hits the ball high,
far and generally over.
