JA OK BT2ITTON

When the Walker boxing bill was
passed New Workers sat back and
dreamed of a championship bout every
week
Tex Richard did his best to make
the dreams come true.
Richard and other promoters have a
double difficulty in arranging cham
piOnShip bouts. In some divisions
there are no suitable opponents for
the champions and in the other classes
where talent is more plentiful. the title
holders refuse to fight to a decision
Leonard Changes Mind.
Benny Leonard, the lightweight
king, recently stated emphatically that
he will not box in New York because
of the general incompetence of the
judges appointed by the boxing com
mission to weigh the merits of the
boxers. Since then he has changed
his mind
Leonard is not the only one To crit
icize the poor work of the officials.
Boxers of all divisions and the fans
have observed that some glaring in
justices have been done by the judg-

LajOie is the only batter | ever pitched
to who never broke ground.
NO matter where l pitched to
Lajoie he was always in the same spot
for the next pitched ball. He never
changed positions, he never broke.
Greatest Pitching Feat.
Il feel that the greatest pitching feat
of my career was made against Lajoie
at bat
1T was in 1908 with Detroit Chica-
90 and Cleveland practically in tie
for the pennant. Cleveland could have
won by beating us the last game we
played in Cleveland.
II will never forget that game. La
ioie came to bat with the bases filled.
| know that l was more excited about
the situation that Lajoie. l struck him
out
"That StrikeOut made the third out
and decided the ball game. 1t was a
big thing to strike the great French
man out in a pinch. Easily the biggest
thing Of my career"

Who is the greatest batter in the
history of the game? Some will say
Hans Wagner, who for years was the
big noise in the National league ROg
ers Hornsby, Ty Cobb or any of Il
score of other great batsmen who have
graced the game. Many of the modern
day fans and writer's will Immediately
slip the honor to Babe Ruth, the home
run king
Listen to what Ed Walsh, one of the
greatest pitchers of all times, says on
this very interesting question.
Walsh Was Spitball Pitcher.
Walsh was a pitcher all batters
hated to face. He was a spitball
pitcher pure and simple. His uncanny
control enabled him to keep the ball
low. A splitter broken at the knee or
lower is the hardest ball in the world
to hit Here is what Walsh says about
the greatest batter of all time:
Larry Lajoie is easily the greatest
batter any man ever pitched to.

MORE MATERIAL Is NEEDED
1t is Opinion Of Owners, Public and
Press That Baseball in Majors
Is Retrograding.

Baseball in the majors has been
retrOgrading for the last five years.
That is the opinion of the owners,
public and press. The magnates are
naturally all fused up about it.
TIE game isn't So Snappy. The
pitching has been off color. In gen
eral, the standard of ball has been
considerably below former years. The
magnates are Of the opinion that play
ers are not being developed rapidly
enough They seek more leeway in
this feature of the game.
1t is said there has been a quiet
agitation going on since the close of
the season for a decided raise in the
player limit They want it placed at
30 men.
The present limit is 40 IL en-, with
the right to hold only eight under OPP
ton. This is not believed to be high
enough in order TO keep up the stand
ard of the game.

ing. There has been no charge OF
crooked work" The boxers complain
merely that the judges are doing bad
work because they don't know better.
Jack Dempsey is willing to put his
title at stake, but there is no one in
the field to give the heavyweight
champion a battle. Jack Britton is
willing to fight i'm New York. but there
are no welterWeightS threatening him
unless it might be Benny Leonard. who
is rapidly reaching his pOundage. In
cidentally, the BrittOn-Leonard bout
seems ii sure thing before the winter
is over.
kiIbane Wants Big Money.
Johnny Kilbane is willing to risk his
title in the Garden. but he wants So
much money for the risk that even
Richard can't meet his terms.
The bantamweights are about the
only ones willing 10 get in and listen
TO the decisions but they are having
a lot of fun passing the title around
among each other. They figure, per
hapS. that if they 20 in the ring often
enough their opponent will get a bad
decision and they will get good one.

World War and Capture by Germans

The rise to fame az billiard player
of Edouard Horemans. the champion

Only seven years ago ne was en-
ployed as night Waterman iii his IA
tive city, Antwerp, and dropped into
one Of the cafes after his rounds to
play just one game.
He soon became SO proficient that
he was able to easily defeat his fellow

three-years' detention in a war camp

After the war was over HOremanS
again took up the game from where he

such a sensational character that he
outclassed all the European experts.
Arthur c. Bierce. in the New York
Post, tells the following interesting
story of the Belgian.
An interested spectator at the games
between EdCuard HOremanS and Albert
Cutler Of Boston. at Days, was a
Young man who gave his name as Mark

HURLED FIRST NO-HIT GAME
Tom Lovett Accomplished Feat Against
New York Giants on June p,
1891.

Tom LOvett was some hurler back in
the days when John McGraw and
Hughey Jennings and, we might add
Hugh Duffy were being initiated into
the mysteries Of big league baseball.
Pitching for the Brooklyn club against
the New York Giants on June %, 1891,
Lovett registered the first no-hit game
ever pitched against a New York (Na-
Honal league) team, and it was to get
into the glory circle of the heroes who
pitched perfect games by passing three
batsmen, for not an error was made
by the Brooklyn team-a perfect game
IN every respect. Those were the days
when such stars as Buck Ewing, Jim
(Orator) O'Rourke, Jack Doyle, Amos
Rusie, Mike Tiernan, Hardie Richard
son and George Gore graced the line
I'D of the Giants, and LOvett was their
complete master IN that memorable
game.

Fight Fans Now Give

umpires have been abused and
reviIed by the fans. Those
knights of the Indicator who ref
creed boxing matches during the

praise of the treatment they re
ceived at the hands of boxing
audiences. But all this has
changed, especially in New York,
