Walker boxing bill than the sponsorship
 of the International Sporting Club. It's
 Very endorsement of the bill was the
 biggest reason in all the world for it's
 passage. For with so splendid club planning to assume a certain control over boxing in New York state, it means that
 the sport, dragged through the mire for years, at last will come into it's own-be lifted up to the cleanest and highest plane that is possible
 Boxing is a splendid sport-the finest in all the world, in my opinion. I love lt-have loved it since the first day that drew on boxing glove. For years I've yearned O see it taken out of the hands of parasites and crooks wanted to see it made clean and honorable And now l'feel that my dreams are to come true with the IntNnational Sporting Club | controlling boxings destiny.
 The game as it was staged in the ola days admitted of many reforms. The In ternational plans making them New rules were needed-and men connected with the International Sporting Club have i taken the proper means to nave then7 drafted into the bill.
 l And more vital than anything else for | the perpetuation of boxing has been tn need for encouraging youngsters Tn | International Sporting Club will put O. | regular shows for fledglings who have ' 1 chance to improve in boxing and adop
 it as a profession if he wishes-aud ther 1 protect him from so-called managers whose greed has ruined the chances O
 mary promising youngsters.
 | The idea of the club was conceived 9
 few years ago. A group of thoroughbred | sportsmen, who wanted to see boxing an
 wanted to see other athletic contests
 got together and incorporated Imme. l diately there was rush to join. The | original idea was to limit the membershir. 1 to 1000. But the applications exceeded
 that figure. So the limit was lifted anf the membership list probably will not be 1 closed until another 1000 members are taken in.
 1 The clubhouse is in the course of con. struction now. If plans do not mscarrv | it will be ready for occupancy carly ir | the fall. And then it promises to becomc | the athletes mecca and take a place ir American sportdom as conspicuous | is had now by the National Sporting Club 1 of London.

 Nothing appeals as more ridiculous than the explanation that the recent attack on New York states boxing bill was be cause the International Sporting Club is behind it..
 Whats objectionable about the Inter national Sporting Club?" was asked one of the attackers.
 This was the answer:
 Why, it's nothing but a pack of Brit
 shers banded together in a club which wants to put through law so it can stage the Dempsey Carpenter match and make a lot of money"
 The reply is laughable It shows that the present "reformers." like many others of their kind, talk and act without being
 ill full possession of the facts. For the International Sporting Club of New York

WORRY DOES WELL

But the revised batting order did not have as much to do with the vic tory as did the pitching of Morrison and an awful error by John Frierson in left field in the sixth inning. After Morrison had walked to start the sixth Barnhart drove a hard grounder to left field, which Frierson allowed to roll between his legs. After that it rolled and rolled and rolled Both Morrison and Barnhart scored on the combination of the hit and error Aftep that one pebble the Travellers resumed their splendid playing behind Henge- weld and Morrison and the Barons con tinued to fight off the Travellers.
 Hengeveld's support finally lost him the game in the sixth inning, but 1t saved him several times before that round. Miller and Harper fieldedfbri liantly in the outfield and Moope put Up great defensive game at third. In the third inning "Scrappy" made a 1eaping, one-handed catch that, robbed Stevenson of at least double. But the greatest thriller of the afternoon was put on by Miller Traveler center fielder. With Peters on third. and one out, Ellis drove a long flyfto center. Miller made the catch and by one of the greatest throws ever made at Kavanaugh field by an outfielder he doubled Peters at the plate when he attempted to score after the catch.

Not only did MoIey suit his pitching selection to the weather conditions, but he appealed to the Goddess of Chance to help him get his BarOns started again. Before the game MoIey wrote the names of his eight regulars on slips of paper, crumplcd them up and put them in hat. Then he drew forth the crumpIed slips one at time, and the names appeared he set them down in the batting order that he used yesterday. Barnhart came out first and Tom Stevenson showed LID Inst.
