.CRIQUI IS DOWN
 AND NEARLY OUT
Nervy Little Frenchman Is Broke And Cannot
 Fight Again
By JOHN O'BRIEN ased Wire to The Age.HeralC

(LeaSed Wire to The Age'Heral0J
 PARIS Nov. 1S.-Lady Luck is counting ten over the prostrate form of Eugene Criqui, the plucky little French man who interrupted a brilliant ring career to join the army during the war and who came out of the racket with a silver jaw and won the worlds feath- erweight championship in spite of his injuries.
 Criqui is physically down and out and likewise broke. He is trying to get himself in shape to go into the ring again but two severe beatings from the failing fists of Johnny Dundee and Danny Frush, have left the little man the shadow of his former self. The silver jaw has tak ken so many hard ones on the button that Criqui may never again be able to risk it against a padded glove.
 Johnny Kilbane delivered the feather weight championship to CriQui after the Frenchman had whipped him in New York. Before the fight Criqui had prom ised to mix it with Johnny Dundee be- fore he went home.
 King Short Lived
 With his new crown scarcely settled on his head Criqui did the unheard of thing. He kept his word, gave Dundee a chance at the title and was given a terrific beating in return for a prize-fighter.

FULTON IS OUT
 ON CASH BAIL

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 1S.-Fred Fulton, Minneapolis plasterer who last night "took the count" after 30 sec onds of fight in bout at Culver City with Toney Fuente, Mexican heavy weight, was arranged in justice court today with his manager, Jack Reddy, on charges of violating the state law against prize fighting. The two were released on cash bail of one thousand dollars each pending preliminary hear ing next Friday.
 Meanwhile, district attorneys investi- gators and Culver City police who had been searching the countryside for Fuente and his manager, Fred Winsor, were notified by telephone by the lat ter that he and Fuente were busy rounding up bail money and would sur render to the authorities early tomor- row when they expected to have the cash.
 Despite this message the search for Fuente and his promoter continued.
 Questioned About Fight
 Fulton was arrested as he was leav- ing his hotel in Culver City today, suitcase in hand. He was brought be- fore Buron Fitts, chief deputy district attorney and questioned concering re- ports that last nights fight had been framed"
 "If, the fight was framed, will go to jail?" he asked.
 "If the fight was framed, I expect you to say so," replied Fitts.
 "Was it framed?"
 Fulton declined to answer.
 Were you supposed to be knocked out in the first round?'
 Again he refused to answer.
 "Were you to receive money for being knocked out in the first round?" per sisted Fitts.
 q refuse to answer" Fulton re- piled.
 "I'u be made the goat sooner or later anyhow. I deny that there were any arrangements by Reddy or Winsor or Fuente, and I deny that I was to be knocked out"

CHANGES TO BE MADE AT 'BAMA
Opening Line-Up Against Georgia Will Have
 New Faces
LINT BREWSTER

UNIVERSITY, Ala, Nov. 1S.- Especial. )--When Alabama faces Geor- gia at Redwood Field on Thanksgiving Day for the Southern Conference title, one can expect to see quite few diff ferent faces defending the Crimson goal from the ones that faced Centre col lege this past Saturday.
 For six changes, possibly more, are to be made in the Tidesmen's opening lineup against Georgia. And these changes, whatever they be, will not be announced to the public under any conditions. Not even a probable line up will be officially given out for the game.
 Coach Wallace Wade announced these emphasized the fact that the changes say; why the changes, he did not say. But changes are to be made and the only time one will be able to see the changes will be when Alabama's cap tain signals the referee that his men are ready for the game to start.
 That, in brief, is all the official news coming out of the Capstone foot ball headquarters until Alabama meets Georgia.
 Behind Closed Portals
 Alabama's grid players, scheduled for nothing but hard practice this coming Saturday afternoon, enjoyed a day of rest of Monday but returned to Denny Field for snappy workout Tuesday afternoon. And behind closed portals, the destiny of the Crimson Tide will be worked out. And what goes on be- hind closed doors is not to be disclosed. The results will be seen when the Tide battles the Bulldogs.
 Despite the defeat Saturday at the hands of Covington, Lemon and com rades, the Tidesmen refuse to say they have not a chance to stop the Bulldogs. The Tidesmen are the under dogs in this game, as they were against Tech, and they are going to devote the next ten days to getting into the best or shape to give the Georgia eleven the greatest scrap they have ever made.
 No one was injured ito any great extent against Centre and the morale of the team, despite their first defeat of the year and the wrecking of their chances for the southern championsbip Tor the time being, is still of the best None hated more than the players them- selves their defeat, but such is liable to happen any time and they are lay ing plans now to smash the Bulldogs If such can be done.
 Alabama has a good football machine. Anyone who saw their games against Furman, Georgia Tech, Kentucky and SSewanee will be forced to admit if, And the fact that they were defeated by Centre does not detract so very much from their ability. Every team has their offdays and Alabama must have had hers Saturday,.
 Rats Play ChattanOOsa
 Coach Vandergraaf's freshman team will not make the long journey to Florida this coming Saturday to play the Rollins college freshmen. The Florida outfit cancelled the game and in lieu of that the rats" will meet the Chattanooga University yearIino brigade in Chattanooga this coming Friday.

saw in the major leagues. His infield was a sieve and his outfield-well, it was the poorest in the American league the poorest I ever saw.
 There never lived pitcher that could work the way Walsh did. Look at Walsh going in as relief pitcher, which he often did three and four days in succession. I have seen Walsh strut in from the bull pen with bases filled and none out and three good batters coming up and not one of the three reaching first base. Walsh struck them out in a row. 1 never saw a pitcher who could so completely, thoroughly and quickly subdue a team as Walsh. He ended batting rallies quicker than any man that ever pitched"
 One day we as.e1 walsh whom he i regarded as the greatest batter that ever faced him and Walsh replied with out hesitating the fraction of a second {:
 Larry Lajoie. That Frenchman is the greatest hitter that ever lived. He was the one batter that put fear into my heart. Boy, how he could hit that ball {! Get it anywhere near to where he liked it and you were gone. That baby had the old power behind his swing. When the Frenchman hit 'em they shot through or over. He was a tough bird to pitch past. He had a great eye. He could hit"
 Walsh was aked whether he did not consider Cobb a better batter than LaJoie. And Walsh replied:
 T do not. I think Lajoie the great est hitter that ever lived. He was an honest goodness natural hitter. He earned everything he got. Cobb was more of trick hitter. He never i'm pressed me the way Lajoie did. "In one game struck out Cobb three

times. He did not get foul off me. And I struck him out on nothing but fast balls. You see, Cobb was up there looking for the spit ball. I figured he was doing that. I shot fast one by him. Cobb let it go, thinking it was the splitter. Then I figured he'd keep look ing for the splitter and I kept faking the splitter and throwing by the fast one. Yes, sir, he famed three times on nothing but fast balls."
 Still, the baseball record books do not show that Cobb proved an easy mark for Walsh as a rule He opposed him in 30 games. Cobb batted 119 times against Walsh, fair test. His average was .337. He made 40 hits off Walsh in the 119 times at bat.
 Another pitcher whom Cobb much ad- mired was Ed Plank. Of him Cobb says:
 Plank had just about everything q pitcher needs, fast ball, drop and curves. He had a deceptive delivery, shooting his stuff from three and four different angles. His crossfire was one of the most deceptive deliveries of all time and

by Il. G. SALSlNGEh I'D WALSH was, in the opinion of E Tyrus Raymond Cobb, the great
 est pitcher the American league has produced.
 This opinion conflicts with belief that is almost unanimous and which places Walter Johnson as the kingpin of American league twirlers.
 Cobb, in explaining his preference says:
 Take the best five years of Walsh's pitching career and the best five of Johnson's and you will find the edge with Walsh.
 What pitcher ever did as much work as Walsh in modern baseball? He pitched his arm away, working in about one-half the games his team played.
 'Johnson's record looks the more i'm pressive. Of course, it does. Look at the number of years he pitched.
 Here's one thing you've got to re- member about Walsh He had to win his own games. He had to win them almost alone. Johnson always had some help, but Walsh had next to nothing.
 Worse Than Washington
 Walsh pitched for q team that had such little batting strength that it was called 'Hitless Wonders.' You will say that Johnson pitched for one that had little more. That is true, but still they had more batting strength than Walsh's Chicago team.
 But. there is one thing that you overlook. Johnson did always have a good fielding team behind him and Walsh never did. Wash pitched before one of the poorest fielding teams I ever

it's wonder that more pitchers don't develop the cross-fire. And, above all, Plank had brains. He was one of the smartest pitchers of all time. He had the batter in the hole from the time he stepped into the box. Even after he lost his fast ball he remained in the big leagues and most players say left-hander without a fast ball can't pitchs in the big leagues. Plank did. He was smart"
 But good as Plank was, and intelli- gent as he was, Cobb managed to hit him for an average of .340 in g games.
