DOWN THE LINE
Why Wolgast Was Absent.
With ". o. MCCLELLAN

THEY did not have Ad Wolgast in the
l. ring. because that former light
weight champion is confined in home
for the hopelessly insane. He would not
have been able to moralize on the
change in the fight game and on the
change in the methods of defending
championships. The title and the de-
Tense of the title would not have In
terested him.
Wolgast defended the title shortly
after he acquired it in bout set at the
more humane limit of Is rounds. He
was defending 1t against a rangy light
weight of San Francisco. Willie Rltchle.
It looked as though the defense OF
the lightweight championship that
day would have been quite as certain
as the defense made by Mandel
against Canzoneri. Wolgast was
pfling up the points and Richie
but suddenly Richie tried wild
swing. It caught Wolgast on the
point of the jaw and the little
Cadillac Bearcat" dropped face
forward on the canvas.
Almost before a count could be
started he rose and spun about,
crouched almost double. AS he swung
he landed two palpably foul blows on
Richie. That ended 1t. The referee
gave the lightweight championship w
Ritchie. Wolgast was still so stunned
that as he was showed to his corner ne
did not register a protest.
It was not long after this that VOL
CAST passed out of the picture. For his
unsuccessful defense Of the title he was
paid perhaps as much as one OF the
preliminary fighters at the Mandell-
Canzoneri thing.
Willie kitLn.~ LOST the title over which
the boys were quarreling in the pine
apple belt to Freddie Welsh. This bout
was held in London, and it seems that
Ritchie lost 1t by something like frac-
ton of a point. The English point
system of scoring boxing bouts Is quite
as incomprehensible as the one estab-
lished by the New York State Boxing
Commission.
The man agaisnt whom Welsh I'M
successfully defended the title also
was in the ring the other night. He
is no other than Benny Leonard,
retired champion, actor and author.
Mr.. Leonard very wisely did not re-
main in the caulifower industry to
defend the title unsucessfully. He
did defend 1t many times quite sue
cessfully for almost as much as there
was in the entire house the other
night
This begins to sound like boresome
history of the lightweight division. Per
haps it is. The point-if any-is thai
it Is much more easy to defend the
lightweight title in the latter days thar
it was in the days when Nelson was
defending it.

"HE week end fighting along the
major league front was all In
favor of the two leading teams;
L not very much, it is true, but
still in their favor.
With the Pirates rained out on Sat-
urday and idle yesterday. the Cubs oc-
cupied their time by turning back the
Brooklyn Robins in two games, and SO
stretching the Chicago lead to six and
one-halt games.
The Mackmen played bruising g.
to-8 tie with Browns on Saturday ano
took their ease yesterday. while the
Yanks were dividing a pair with the
industrious Indians. This left the mar
gin of the Mackmen at eleven and one
half games. just where it was 48 hours
ago. but with the important difference
that one game of the lead was trans
ferred from the relatively non-essen-
tial won column to the vital line Of
figures detailing games lost.
The Yankees now have lost 10 games
more than the flying Macks. who are
moving at gait which might possibly
level that 23-year-old record OF ZIG
Chance.
$4,000 Fans at Stadium.
Some $4,000 of the faithful turned
out on the Sabbath to see the Yankees
fend off their current jinx team, the
Cleveland Indians. The champions hit
hard behind old Tom Zachary in the
opener to win by IL to o, but a gen.
eral pitching blow-up in the second
clash saw the Indians score by IL
to g. Young Yves Terrell was knocked
from the box. but so were Herb Pen
mock and other Yankees. The Indians
got nine in the ninth to pull out the
decision.

About IL years ago a big, red
headed pitcher stole third base IN
the world series between the Giants
and the White Sox. Nothing so
very unusual about that. to be sure.
although big red-headed pitchers
don't unusually steal bases, especially
in world series games.
But wait! You haven't heard 1t
all. Third base happened to be oc-
cupied by a teammate at the time!
where are you going?" yelled his
surprised mstey, as they both slid
into the bag about the same time.
I'm going to pitch" replied the
red-headed one. realizing that his
mistake had made the third out,
and pitch he did, as the records will
show.

The Luck Of Qualifying.


Cyril TOLLEY'S return to the
~ United States recalls the rasping
luck he suffered in his last invasion
| when he failed to qualify at Merton by
stroke. It was on this same occasion
| that Jess Sweetser slipped by single
shot, and Sweetser was then at or near
+; his height of golf fame.
The luck that Tolley suffered came
upon the green's. In his last 18-hole
/ test he had something like 10 puts to
hole that were less than an inch or
! two from the cup. In other words, he
had 10 puts that wavered or trimmed or
| f1uttered around the tin without drop
ping.
The putt for an inch or for half
J an inch counts as much of a stroke
as full drive. To have 10 Of these
in one round that you can knock in
with one hand puts heavy burden
on the rest Of the game. There can
be big difference in the play need
ed to get score around IS, for ex-
ample. At one time the 10 can
result from series of puts rang
ing from to 10 feet. That is the
type of 78 that might easily be an
85. The IS got where putt after
putt is tapped in at close range
might just as easily have been 70.
Only stout soul can stand the strain
of watching putt after putt from a rea.
sonable range roll up to the cup and
turn away at the mast, spin or flutter
in and then pop out. There is, OF
course. a big premium on putting skill.
But there is also a big premium on the
luck of the green" a factor that can
make terrific difference In any round
at any given time.
