up his arm before tackling the hard
work down at Tampa.
"O'Rourke went to Bonesetter Reese
last fall. He says his arm is as good
as ever it was before hurting 1t. He
believes he will have a clean. free
action this year. In that case, i have
picked up a wonderful shortstop for
my club, take 1t from me. If he can
throw without effort he'll come close
to setting a record in this league.
II am banking a lot on O'Rourke
this spring. I want him in there from
the very, beginning of the training
season. O'Neill is not available, you
know, because of his pneumonia at
tack last fall. and so O'Rourke has the
place to himself. That's why I have
sent him to Hot Springs, so that there
will be nothing in his way to keep
him from proving a big winner.
GRIFFITH IS HOPEFUL.
I'm spite of what you fellows
always say about me, / never claim
any pennants-no, not even in Sep
tember. 1 have lost a couple Of pen
nants by an eyelash. / know how

you. But l do say this, don't think
Cleveland or New York is a certain
pennant-winner this year. 1t isn't so,
not by a jugful. There are several
other clubs in this league.

Il can say no more. Baseball is a
hard game to dope, even one game,
without talking Of a whole season. I
can say, though, that I am banking on
Johnson, Shaw, Acosta, Zachary. and
courtney to turn in some wonderful
pitching this season.
If they do that, and a couple of the
other pitchers show anything, the
Washington clufb won't have to worry
about its pitchers. The brunt of the

This reduces things down to Held-

a hne fielder and a steady. reliable
hitter. We may not have him. But
you never can tell In baseball what is
going to happen.

It is unfortunate that the players
on the Washington club cannot be
present tomorrow night, but Uncle
Nick Altrock will be there to act for
them. He will be able to carry the
word to Tampa, telling just what
Washington thinks of George Mcbride
and with what enthusiasm the team
should make it's getaway from the
mark on April 13, 1921. ..-
II enthusiasm among the fans
counts for anything the Grinmen
should be a fighting aggregation from
the drop OF the hat. II those fellows
out on the field will only make a
battle OF every game this year at
Georgia avenue they will not need to
complain of the vocal support given
them. This is what the signs show
now, with snow on the ground and
chill winds sweeping around the cor
ners, playing naughty tricks with the
roll tops.

THIRTY-FIRST IN
SERIES

This, is the thirty-first of
series of "Old Time Fights"
written by authorities on pu-
gilism famous in their day.
Others will follow.
Today two battles fought
by John l.. Sullivan are de-
scribed. The first is that
against Paddy Ryan at Missis-
sippi City, Miss, February 7,
1882. The second is that of
the great Boston Strong
Boy" against Jake Kilrain, of
Baltimore, fought at Rich
burg, Miss, July 8, 1889.
Both these old battles were
with bare fists.

LOSE CHANCE FOR
THEMSELVES

Some OF the golf profess
sionals say that they do not
want to make the trip to Eng
land to play the British pros.
AS the clubs on this side are
voluntarily shouldering the
expense of the trip, it looks as
il the players we're missing a
good chance to strengthen their
prestige and regulations.
A reputation as a winner is
one of a professionals great.
est assets and the publicity
which goes with his victories
makes him more valuable to
his club.
The desire to place Ameri-
can golf on top should be in
centive enough to persuade
our best pros to make the trip.
The Washington times., 1921-02-23

The finish came in the ninth round
When the men met in the center OF
the ring they had little strength and
both missed their leads. They quickly
clinched, having tumbled together in
thSir desire to do each other mischief
but Sullivan, being much the stronger
man, delivered several telling right
handlers to Ryan's jaw and temple.
These knocked him about without his
being able to return the blows and
sent poor Ryan down all in heap.
The game fellow had to allow his
seconds to throw in the sponge In
token of defeat. after one OF the
fiercest and most determined battles
of modern times. The time of this
round was eleven minutes. Through
out Ryan made a gallant fight and
bore his punishment manfully. He
was terribly punished and showed the
signs OF it in his body and head. No
man could have borne such a success
sion Of terrible blows with q better
grace.
HE DEFEATS KILRAIN.
1t was at Richburg, Miss, on July 3,
1889. that John L. Sullivan. of Boston.
and Jake Kilrain, of Baltimore, faced
each other and fought for the largest
stake ever hung up in those days.
The prize was $4,000, Police Gazette
belt. and the championship OF the
world. The finish came about In the
seventy NTH round.
In this round Sullivan went in and
knocked down Kilrain as he pleased.
Jake was dazed, and after making an
attempt to tight in the seventy-ffth
round he was unable to toe the scratch
for the seventy-sixth, and Mike Dono-
van threw up the sponge.
This was the last bare knuckle
championship fight ever staged in this
country and marked the passing OF
the old London prize ring rules. This
was a fight that would make the bat
ties of the present day look like pink
tea affairs. Everything went. About
tho forty-fourth round Sullivan be-
came sick, and his hackers began to
look worried. Eilrain evidently
thought SO, too.
"Do you want to draw the fight?"
he asked Sullivan.
SULLIVAN GETS VERY ROUGH.
"No, you Ioafer," answered the gen.
tleman from Boston. as he went at
Kilrain and finally sent him to the
earth
In the forty-hfth round Sullivan
committed n very apparent foul. After
clinching with Kilrain. the latter went
down, and sullivan, being on top, de-
liberately jumped on the falling mans
head with his knees.
Sullivan recovered his wind about
the ffty-second round. and after that
gave Kllrain a terrific beating. The
Boston Boy kept up his advantage

State of Idaho with it's vast plains

Oregon in point of rural population
although its real growth dates back
but twenty years. Before that time
Idaho was known only for its mining

passed away with similar speed, and
a comparatively small number of
large sheep and cattle ranches.
Now 1t has a rural population of
312,829, compared with 3O2,370, in
Oregon. 1t has no largo cities, but
