Boxing is always under a cloud.
Many fights have been crooked.
More have been questioned.
The game is under suspicion.
But now women are taking q i've
lier interest in boxing.
Anne Morgan promoted the Leon
ard-Mitchell title match.
Women are financing and SUPER
vising public movements of n sort
and another to give boys the berfefit
of training as boxers.
It's an outgrowth Of the wartime
experience which proved boxing
does much TO make youths physi-
cally At.
Here's hoping the advent OF wo-
men into the boxing sport will clean
1t up. and keep it clean.
The best thing that could be done
for the sport would be this:
Draft as a member OF every of1i-
cial boxing commission at least one
public spirited, strong willed wo-
man who would keep it straight.

CHIEF YELLOW HORSE BEGGED TO BE KEPT OUT
OF MAJOR LEAGUE BUT NOW IS PIRATES STAR
By DEAN SNYDER,

Hot Springs, Ark, March 30
There is one rookie in the big
leagues this season who begged not
to be taken into major company:
Moses Yellow Horse, hurler Of
the Pittsburgh Pirates!
He's ful1-blooded Indian of the
Pawnee tribe and looks pretty GER
tain to be regular with the Pirate
crew this season.
Helped Cop Pennant.
Last season Yellow Horse was
with the Little Rock team in the
Southern league. 1t was his first
year in professional baseball and
he won q games and lost Z. His
hurting was one Of the main reasons
why Little Rock COPIED the pennant-
And it was his l to victory over
Nashville that cinched the honors
for the season.
When he heard that the Pirates
were after him, at the end Of last
season, he made three trips from
his home in Pawnee, Okla, to Little
Rock to beg Kid Eberfield not to
sell him.
I'm not in the game for the
money" Yellow Horse told him.
I've a farm on the reservation and
l get my checks from the govern
ment."y
-.. Says He Likes 1t.
And then his tribesmen got after
him and it was due to their plead
ings. mostly, that Yellow Horse
finally consented to enter the prize
company of baseball.
Now that he's had a few weeks
Of training with the Pirates the In
dian thinks he's going to like it
Il love baseball" he says, "and
I've been at some phases of it ever
since / was boy-used to throw
rocks at stone"
Yellow Horse once toured the
United States with Pawnee Bills
wild west show. He was a papoose
then and his mother carried him on
her back when the parade went
down Broadway in New York.
Predicts Success.
Something tells me I'm going to
be in another parade-and at the
head of it with the Pittsburgh team
he says. Il can read the FUTURE
guess inherited the prophetic
sense from my grandmother. And
l see the Pirates winning the 1921
pennant.
