NEW YORK, Sept. 2-Accordlng. to reports from the west Willie Ritchie has taken on a lot of weight since he lost the lightweight title and Is likely to find making even 135 pounds a most difficult mutter in the near future. As Welsh declared lis has changed ths class limit back to the 133-pound notch, favored by Nelson and Wolgast, Ritchie seems to bs frosen out as a contender. Welsh's stand regarding the weight at which he will defend the tills Is certain to find little favor. But In view of the fact that both Nelson and Wolgast were allowed to name their own figures, thnre seems to be no reason why Welsh should not enjoy the same privilege. How ever, since both Johnny Dundee and Charlie White, who threaten to causa Welsh considerable trouble, both favor the lighter mark, Welsh may finally de bt clde not to change ths scale after all. As a matter of fact. If Ritchie were Into the welterweight division It be a great deal more helpful to In general.
