Richard is accused of being "a
monopoly" Guess that's right.
So would anybody else be a
monopoly" in New York boxing
if the boxers hadsthe same conf
dence they have for Richard in
his successor.
Richard calmly points to the
Leonard Tender, Wilde-Villa, Kill
bane-Criqui and Dundee Criqui
contests, notable battles for ring
titles, with which he was not
connected.
When the promoters were about
to fail in staging the Greb- Wilson
bout for the middleweight title,
they called upon Richard for
assistance. He succeeded where
they failed.
The Willard-Johnson bout iea-
tured the Milk Fund show, :he
poor of New York being the
gamers by his work.
The one title contest staged by
Richard in New York was the
Dempsey-Firpo affair and it is
doubtful if the world champion
would do business with anybody
else in the metropolis. Dempsey's
manager, Doc Kearns, knows he
gets a square deal from Richard.
So does every other manager in
the game.
We are a long distance from
New York. Our opinion counts
as nothing to those concerned.
But we can truthfully say that,
if Richard is driven out of box
ing in New York, the game will
fall with him, and only jealousy,
coupled with the fickleness Of the
deaf, dumb and blind public, will
be to blame.

LOS ANGELES. Jan. 5.-"Dutch"
Leonard, one of the great left handed
pitchers of baseball and who has
been on the outlaw list of organized
baseball for several seasons, is ap-
lying for reinstatement.
Leonard's home Is near Fresno,
where he owns a large vineyard.
For the past two seasons Leonard
has been pitching ball for Fresno
in the San Joaquin Valley circuit.
Several years ago Leonard dc
manded a salary Of $4,000 a sea
son to pitch for the Detroit Club.
Frank Navin, president Of the
Tigers, though that was too much
money. While Leonard was a win.
ming pitcher he was not of the iron
man variety and could pitch only
about once q week and be at his
best.
Leonard based his demand for
Sic, 900 salary on the fact that it
would be worth at least $4,000 a
year to leave his ranch near Fresno.

berg, Curb Cafe, Ill: Nick Cha

They are District and National
Capital League bowlers. Perhaps
there are stars Of equal magnitude
in other leagues, but not many.
The probability is that one OF
those mentioned will be the high ave-
rage man Of 1923-24.
Another interesting probability
Is that the RathskeIIers named
will drop q point or two. Their
records are taken from the Ma
tiOnaI Capital League, which
staged all it's games on the Rath-
skeIIer alleys, just passed from
existence. The National CAPITAL
will shoot hencefOrth on the Pet.
worth alleys.
Compare the Rathskellers' aver
ages in the National Capital League,
all made on the Rathskeller alleys.

in the District, achieved on run
ways around the circuit"
In each instance the National
Capital average is given first: Burt
ner, 114.1O7; Campbell, 11S-111; Har-
ley, 1O7-110; Brewer. 112-109. Perez
Elicit, the other Rathskeller star.
hasn't rolled enough games in the
National Capital to mean anything.
His District league mark is 112.
1t lie quite obvious that the
Rathskellers were favored by shoot
ing on alleys with which they were
long accustomed. Buck Harley is
the only Rathskeller star who does
better in the District than the
National Capital.
Some bowlers contend that the
Rathskellers will do as well at the
Petworth establishment as at the
old Rathskeller. They will be shoot
ing on new, true alleys, which re.
quire little study to master. Pet

it primarily because it involves a
lot Of walking, which she despises,
she would not say such foolish
things"
Mrs. Ronald H. Barlow, national
ly known golfer said, II never heard
of anything so absurd. If it is not
good exercise, why do physicians
recommend walking as the best of
exercises?"
Tennis and swimming are the
best forms of exercise, according
to Miss Garden, and she advises
them for keeping fit and for losing
extra pounds-also stating that golf
hardens only the muscles of the
legs and permits the rest of the
body to become fat and flabby.
This bit Of advice is answered
by Mrs. Alma Won Steiner, Of this
city, who is an expert in all three
mentioned branches of sport.
"Tennis and swimming are both
beneficial forms Of exercise but
not as good as golf. If Miss Gar
den would swing a golf club,
from the fact that every muscle
in her body would be stiff she
