DETAILS OF DEATH OF . TEX RICHARD, OLD NONIEITE

MIAMI BEACH, Florida, Jan. :,
 P-Death claimed George Tex
 Rickard, New York sports pro- moter, after complications from an operation for the removal of his appendix New Years night Mrs. Rickard, Jack Dempsey, MT. and Mrs. Walter Field and Dr. E. H. Adkins where at the bedside when the maker of champions died.
 :. Rickard came to Miami Beach recently to superintend the open ing of the Greyhound Race Track and to arrange heavyweight match between Young Stribling and Jack Sharkey. He was strick en Tuesday when an immediate operation was ordered. He showed improvement Friday when he suf- fered relapse. peritonic infection developed at 6:30 in the morning and he lapsed into unconsciousness from which he never recovered.
 Tex went into the boxing game business thru home town pride in 1906 and staged a lightweight pionship bout between Battl- ing Nelson and Joe Cans. At Goldfelds. Nevada, he ran al stake of thirty thousand dollars, which he had saved from gold mining days in Alaska, into a personal fortune of several million dollars.
 No man in Madison Square Gar den is capable to take the place of Tex Rickard, he kept the de- tails of battles in his own brain and rarely used records. Only twice in lis career was he wrong in his judgement, both last sum- mer when Jimmy McLarnin and Sammy Mandell bout lost him one hundred thousand and the Tom Heeney and Gene Tunney fight which lost him three hundred thousand dollars.
 Tex Rickard was born in Kan sas City, January ?, 1870. He grew up on cattle ranch in Texas and joined the Klondyke rush in 1895. He landed with another cowboy at Juneau, lugged sleds through Chilkoot Pass, which was the gateway to the Yukon river at that time. He struck a bonanza with profit of sixty thousand | dollars when he set up a gambling hall and saloon at Dawson. One night band of lucky miners wip- 1 ed out the roulette and faro tables and Rickard was forced to chop wood for five months swinging an axe beside Rex Beach until 1899.
 After arriving at Nome he start ed saloon and gambling hall with only thirty five dollars and in four years made one hundred thousand, most of which was lost on barren gold claims. Firing of Alaska he returned to San Fran cisco. then went to Goldfields, Ne vada, where he started another dance hall Sourdoughs every where recall Rickard as gambler who always made his word good and stated he was the best liked man in the North The gold rush reputation of the Northern saloon, his Nome gambling house, spread all over Alaska as gentlemen's resort. declared H. S. Turner now Seattle realtor.
 Richards mother. Mrs. L. J. Adams aged S1. of Seattle, was dry eyed when told of his death, and regrets that she refused an invitation to visit him in New
 York this winter. Upon arrival at New York Tuesday, the body will rest in state until buried there.

With the SandLOtterS
BY BABE RUTH

IT'S funny how kid ball clubs al
j ways look with Scorn on the out
field. can remember. as a kid
on tho sandlots. how VIC used to
pick out the worst players. and the
smallest kids and send them into
the outheld TO snag flies.
Kids are still doing Just that I
watched couple of kid teams the
other dav and every one Clamored
for a chance to Rtch and play first
base. and no ono wanted to play
the outheld AS q matter Of fact,
playing the outfield is just as much
an art as playing anywhere else on
the diamond
The outheld takes speed and a
good throwing arm. It takes keen
eyes and a fine sense Of direction
and timing And Of course, an out
fielder has to be able to hit From
the standpoint of professional base
ball there's another point about out
helders. It's a pretty fair job, be-
cause there is less strain on the
legs and arm. Outfelders last longer
than any other type of player-and
that's a fine thing, too.
What I'm trying to say to the
kids is Just this. Don't feel bad
about playing the outfeld. Go out
there and do the best you can.
Try hard. Learn something about
your position and watch your
chances.
