Jimmy Ring. right-handed pitcher

not the leading hurler in the major
leagues this season, but there is no
one who will deny tha. this same
Ring is one of the best mound men
in the national pastime. For proof
of this assertion one need only to
look at the records for the 1923 CAM

Here is a pitcher with club that
is f1oundering far down in the rut.
Notwithstanding this fact, Ring has
been able to win more than two

close to $50 percentage points ahead
of the club from which he draws

much about the fight game, ana that
he liked him very much, but tnat
ARRANGEMENTS for a trainer or train
ing camp for the Dempsey match had

The Argentine boxer was repre-
