Freddie Welsh
An Example of
"Human" Bcjxer
Little Englishman Who For
Several Years Held Worldi
Lightweight Title, Friend
ly to Opponent
Here's another story concerning
the human fighter. It concerns
Freddie Welsh, the little English
man, who, for several years held the
world's lightweight1 championship,
only to lose it to Benny Leonard,
present titleholder. Welsh was one
of the smartest fellows we ever had
in the ring; not alone a smart wield
er of the mitts, but a smart thinker.
He made- boxing a business, or, in
other words, he played the game
just as many glove men do, simply
for the coin that is in it.
: But Welsh wasn't constructed like
most other fighters. For a man who
reached the top rung of the ladder,
he was rather frail in construction.
For that reason he found out early
in his pugilistic career that if he was
to get anywhere it would - not be
through ability to "take it,", as they
say of a scrapper who is able to as
similate punishment.
The art of cleverness was the
4hing that Welsh set out to perfect,
and he accomplished the achieve
ment, as was demonstrated when he
became champion of 'em all.
All No-Decision Bout.
While Welsh was champion he
was smart eneough not to engage
in contests in which the referee-was
empowered ha , grant , decisions.
Therefore, it didn't make (he least
bit of difference whether , he was
beaten in the ring, as long as he
wasn't knocked out: there was. ho
chance of the titles being taen
away from him. ; . ,
There were any number of times
that Welsh was beaten by a wide
margin in no-decision bouts, from
which, had a decision been permissi
ble, a new champion woultf have
emerged. We : remember very dis
tinctly one of those occasions when
the champion landed -in Milwaukee
to tight t-ver Hammer otjuhicago.
Wel.h waa fur from being In condition
tor that contest, mT had a mighty nar
row eacape from beinn dethroned that
right, tnr Hammer sloughed him with
nearly everything handy except the water
bucket. Welsh admitted after he ha-J
weathered the 10 rounds that had
rearly Hopped, and, as we remarked, be
ing a human tort of a fallow, gave Ham
mer all the oredtt that waa coming to
tin. , i
MlMed by Manager.
"More power to Hammer," aatd Welsh.
"I don't know that I need to 'say that I
think I can beat Kver. but the result of
. this fight speaks for Itself?'
I Now a a matter of fact there wasn't
fan In the big Milwaukee auditorium
wno thought that' Welsh. If In hDe.
could Inse to Hammer. But Welsh was a
bit worked up over something else, and
the fellow responsible for bis wrath was
bis manager, Harry Pollok.
The manager had made the match, tell
ing Freddie that Hammer was a setup
and thst he .didn't have to train a bit tu
ltk Ever. It la not .a tnattur nf hkrH
hut those who cla'.m ta know state that
mat Milwaukee maten In which Welsh
was nearly knocked out of his title was
tre of the things which later on caused
milt between welsh and Pollok.
Dislikes to Bany Young Boxers.
. Welsh as a fighter could have
spr.irtkled his record fith a lot more
knockouts than show in it, had he
not, been inclined ta take a human
view of the business. , In his time he
met a number d fellows who really
didn't match up with him in class,
and he could have toppled them at
any time he saw fit .But he didn't,
and why? j
Here's a little story that reveals
the reason: V , . "
Welsh always said that he liked to
see young fellows entering the box
ing game get along. He didn't
want to be the fellow who stood in
the way of a yourg fighter's mak
ing money in the ring.
One time he fought Johnny
O'Leary, one of the classiest light
weights ever turned out in Canada.
They met in Winnipeg, and just
after they had started scrapping
Welsh whispered to O'Leary, "Now
go along nicely with meand don't
coublecross me and I'll not do any
thing to you to hurt you as a box
office fighter. If you make a good
showing with me you'll be able to
get some good matches and the coin
that goes with them."
Sees Knockout; Gets Pounding.
But O'Leary couldn't see things
Welsh's way, and immediately pro
ceeded to try to knock out the cham
pion. The result was Welsh forgot
to be human, and handed O'Leary
one of the worst poundings he ever
got in the ring. After the bout
Welsh met O'eLary and told him he
had made a mistake;' that he
shouldn't have tried to score a
knockout. O'Leary's answer was:
"Well,' I thought I could slip it
over, on you and I tried my best." -
That demonstrates the difference
between a human fighter and one
who isn't -

Former Governor Coaches Team
A former governor of Nebraska
as coach of a foot ball team is un
usual enough to be interesting.
Former Governor Keith Neville is
the coach of the North Platte high
school foot ball team. In fact, as
coach, he is a part of the traditions
of that institution; for he has aided
the school in that capacity since hi&
graduation from St. John's College,
AnnaooHs. fifteen years ago.
He is not known, however, tothe
members of his teams o$ to the
students of the high school as Gov
ernor Keith Neville or even Keith
Neville. 'To them he is just plain
"Skip." And. if they realize that he
has ever been the governor of Ne
braska, there is no outward indica
tion of it. It seemed as natural to
fall back into comradeship with the
boys of the town as though he had
never been away.
The North Platte coach, according
to his own admission, was never
nore than an average player while
at college. He "got by" through
conscientious training and hard
work. ; ; He enjoyed good coaching,
however, and absorded foot ball.
When he returned to. North Platte
after completing his course at col
Itge, foot ball was in its infancy. It
was only natural that he should in
terest himself in the high school team
of his home town, and when we
loam his viewpoint with reference
to foot ball it is not surprising that
his interest has never waned.
Mr. Neville has always maintained
that properly conducted athletics in
institutions where the students have
not reached the age where their
traits of character have become es
tablished and fixed, does as much to
prepare them to make a success in
life in .any subject taught, and more
than most. . ' -

Most Golfers Superstitious, But v
few Admit it Especially Women
New York, Oct. 30. Most golfers
are superstitious even though few
will admit it. This is especially
true of women players, a good many
of whom have some pet hobbv in
which they indulge. Miss Cecil
Leitch, f the British champion, who
compares in her country- to Mis
Alexa Stirling in the United States,
is candid about her weakness. "
!'When packing to ga to St. An
drews for my first championship
meeting in 1908," she says, ''I broke
C looking glass, an accident which
means, according to the superstitious,
seven years' bad luck. In that meet
ing I found my brassie broken dur
ing the semi-final round, in which
I was defeated on ;the home green
by the ultimate winner, Miss Maude
Titterton.
"I think my caddie, Darbie, had
a belief in mascots, as he insists
Friction Between
St. Louis Leaders
Jimmy Burke; and ' Bobbie
Quinn of Browns Likely to
( Cause Change in Lineup.
New York, Oct. 30. The resigna
tion of Hughie Jennings in Detroit
was expected by persons who were
close to the Detroit situation. The
next head to fall fcff in the American
league will be thatof Jimmy Burke
of the Browns. Jimmy last seaspn
gave the Browns their first first di
vision, team in 12 years. His offense
in St Louis is that he insists on
managing the team and in -letting
Bobbie Quinn look after the busi
ness end of the enterprise. This
doesn't suit Quinn, who as Phil
Ball's right-hand man is a sort of
assistant commander-in-chief of the
Browns.
There has been friction between
the pair for months and it will come
to a head during the winter if not
sooner. And the inside story is that
Phil'Ball will side with Quinn.
George Stallings also is unlikely
to return to the Boston Braves. He
hasn't been in the first division for
four years and Boston is now anx
ious for a change. Besides the one
time "Miracle Man" got a pretty fat
salary in Boston and Grant may not
be willing to renew the contract at
th&old terms.
Tris Speaker's success has awak
ened fresh interest in this old insti
tution.. Very often a player of the
aggressive type can inspire a club
far more than a brainy man sitting
on tie bench.
Rabbit Maranville of the Boston
Braves was fined $500 in the last
week of the National league season
for leaving his club without permis
sion. Rogers Hornsby, star bats
man of the National league, was
fined $500 late in the season for in
subordination. He took it as a joke
and said: "Why don't you make it
$1,000? I won't pay it.'
...... . F -J
Will these fines have anv seauel?
St. Louis men brought the story tf
the world series that Hornsby had
played his last game with the Cardi
nals and that Rickey would put him
on the openmarket next winter. It
tooks as thoiiRh Hornsby will guard
second base for the Giants when a
new seasoji opens. ,
Few Major League Stars
Barnstorming This Year
New York, Oct. 30. For some
reason or another barnstorming
teams, each featuring a few major
league players, are scarce this year.
During the last few weeks of the ma
jor league races many prospective
teams were formed by National and
American league players, but when
the championship season closed
there were only a handful of athletes
ready to play the one day stands.
Most of the players evidently were
too anxious to get to their respective
winter homes, and there are only a
few major leaguers ' being starred
in towns where the diamond celeb
rities do not perform vin summer
months.
The most lntactteam now pick
ing up some easvMnoney is the
Giants. Nearly all the members of
the McGraw outfit are now in Cuba,
where thev are playing a series of
pames with the Almendares. Babe
Ruth is being featured on a team that
is Dirtying in small eastern cities,
and Jaka Daubert atid Morris Rath

Keith Neville.
a busy man could find them to
devote to the coaching of a foot ball
team, but Mr. Neville declares that
that he does not devote any more
time to. foot ball than, he would have
to devote to some other form of ex
ercise and recreation if he hopes to
keep in fairly good physical condi
tion. An hour a day is little enough
to devote to this purpose by those
who are engaged in more or less
sedentary pursuits, especially if they
have in the pact attained a consider

with him a "good luck" mascot,

Not Sufficient Money

Baltimore, Oct. '30. The ' fight
scheduled to take place here last
night between Benny Leonard, the

the time, came for them to go on. The
reason given was that there was not
sufficient money in the house to pay'

Philadelphia. Oct. 30. Coach John
W. Hisman of the University ot
Pennsylvania foot ball team, has

Expect Changes in
Big Team Managers
Someone Other Than George
Stalling Will Lead Braves,
According to Reports.
New York, Oct. 30. Some radical
changes in the leadership, of big
league ball cjubs will be brought
about before "play ball" sounds in
1921. , ' . " -
There's no certainty that John Mc
Graw will manage the Giants in 1921.
The veteran has tired a bit of the
active work, and may decide before
springtime that vice presidenting for
the team is enough ot a job. In case
he quits, it is likely that Johnny Ev
ers will supplant, rfim.
Cactus Cravath is through with the
Phillies. His dismissal or resigna
tionhas not been announced. But
it'll come soon. No one has been
discussed as yet as his successor.
George Stallings in all likelihood
will not be bossing next season's
Braves. His $12,500 per year con
tract expires December 31, and
George Grant, owner of the club, has
indicated that someone other than
Stallings will lead the 1921 pennant
battlers.
Wilbert Robinson certainly won't
be jobless next season. But it isn't
at all certain that he will be heading
the Dodgers. If Charlie Ebbets
opens his tightly-drawn purse strings
Wilbert . might decide to stay with
the Brooklyn club. But he'll drift
alon to Philadelphia. Detroit, Bos
ton, or perhaps the St Louis Browns
if Ebbets doesn't boost considerably
the $9,000 salary of 1920.'
Holland Olympic Team
Finds Ship Overcrowded
Antwerp, Oct 30. Publication of
the inside story of the recent .Hol
land-Belgium association foot 'ban
parne in the Olympic tournament
shows that tht American Olympic
team was not ttie only one to rebel
because of the transport accemmoda-
tions furnished them. ..
Just as the Americans found the
Matoika an over-crowded ship the
Dutch foot ball players protested
strenuously against thet quarters al
lotted them aboard a small steamer
which brought them to Antwerp and
on which they were supposed to
live. Four of them, ringleaders in
the "rebellion," were barred from the
big game 'but when the Dutch com
mittee sought to descipline them and
send them home in disgrace the en
tire team forlned a sort of a soviet
and forced the committee to back
down, just as the American team
won out Over its Olympic committee
in the case, of Ahearn. .
Willie Hoppe at Loss to

New York, Oct. 30, There was a
big sensation at the Friars' club some
nights since when Willie Hoppe.
hitherto considered invincible, and
who has gone alone year after year
without a defeat, was fceaten at bil
liards by Charite Peterson, 250 to

Hoppe, the carrpm master, was at

He could only explain his defeat by
saying that it was an off-night for
him, while it was a very much on"
evening' for' his clever, adversary.

No Provision In Big

New York, Oct. 30. There is no

lyn pitcher cannot be legally barred
from holding a position in that cir
cuit. A section of the constitution
which apparently covers this point
reads as touows:

Cleveland, in spite of the fact that
neither tickets no money changed
