who came here to see the bout be-
tween Shuttle Callahan of Chicago

Callahan had been battered almost

been a succession of knockout victor

Major League exhibition games OF

necessary to look at the calendar, to
ascertain if the season is near. With
opening games less than week away,
the most promising teams of the two

salary checks are presented regularly.
Injuries have weakened two or three

sNinety-five per cent good sports is
a pretty fair average, though, for any
game.
On the subject of sportsmanship,
honesty and kindred subjects, base
ball recently was paid delicate com
pliment. When few ball players went
crooked some years ago, there was
terrible ruckus that lasted for months
and hasn't altogether died down yet.
II was front page stuff and every
body who would talk at all was in
terviewed at length. The other day,
half a dozen of the leading jockeys
on the American turf were banished
for life and penalties equally severe
were assessed against certain owners,
trainers and horse racing officials.
The matter got hardly any mention in
the papers. No louder comment ever
was made on the honesty of baseball.
