clinches n, match with Freddy Welsh.
Gibson Issues Dcfi
Gibson la willing to make any conces
sion to get tho lightweight chamnlon In
tho ring with Ills boy, and oven goes bo
far ns to put up regular money for tho
privilege. Saya William:
"Leonard has proved conclusively that
ho Is tho best lightweight In tho world,
nnd I DEMAND that Freddy Welsh glvo
him n match. To make things Interesting,
I will give Welsh $16,000 for a bout with
Denny and bet htm $10,000 on tho side, t
KNOW Leonard can beat him nnd I shall
not oven nslc Welsh to mako weight for
tho battle. Although Freddy poses as a
lightweight, wo nil nro nwaro that never
will ho be nbln to mako 13 C pounds again.
That being tho case, Welsh can step Into
tho ring weighing 150 pounds If ho wants
to. Uut MY boy will weigh 133 pounds or
UNDER, us 1 want no one to question
Leonard's tight to the title when ho wins
It."
Some "Inside Stuff"
Ah wo wcro rushing from Madison
Square Garden Wednesday night, wo
crashed Into' ono of our local pugilistic
lights, who was rushing for tho Bame
place.
"What did you think of tho fight?" wo
asked.
"Nothln to it," was tho reply. "Dundoo
Jus' knocked tli' daylights outta Leonard
an' won by a hull block. Hones', I
wouldn't a' took tho beatln' Dunileo
slipped that guy If somebody'd glmmo th'
mint. Wasn't It a awful Iacln'?"
"I don't know," wo icplled. "I thought
Leonard had the better of It. You know,
ho landed tho cleaner blows, lilt harder
nnd had Dundco in bad shape several
times. In tho eighth round ho floored
Johnny and almost had him out. It really
looked like Leouard'H fight."
"Oh, a' courso you was rlto at th' ring
side and had a chanst to got th' dope'
better'n me. Anyway, I don't think them
bums Is so much."
"What do you think of Leonard? Do
you think you could beat him?"
"Ych."
"Think you could knock him out?"
"Ych."
"What makes you think you can beat
Mm? Leonard looks awfully good."
More of the Snme
"Yeh see, it's this away. Theso guys
what lives In N'Yawk nlnt no good a-tall
They knocks out a bunch of bums and
then tho reporters what smokes hop sits
down and tells th' peoplo what bears
they are. Then tho fighter gets all swelled
on hlsselt and has dreams just th' samo
ns th' reporters. They gots all swelled, I
tellya. Their caranlums gets no big that
they buys liatn size 19, An" when a guy
gets a swelled caranlum, ho alnt no good.
Thassa reason I kin lick him."
"But did you like tho fight tonight?" we
again asked.
"Sure! It was a swell flte. Ych know,
that Leonard suro Is a boar. Ho Just
knocked th' daylights outta Dundco and
won by a hull block. Geo! but that "Wop
took a awful Iacln'. Ych seo, Leonard
landed th' cleaner blows an' hit harder.
He almost put th' Wop ta sleep In th'
eight'. I wouldn't a took that Iacln' If
I was made a present of th' mint.
"Now, lots have jus' ono more before

all I ask. All right, mako It a short one,

One gentleman still thinks I robbed him
of a wondorful sideline volley shot when
ho was playing Osborne. However, he
ovened up quite unintentionally later by
calling a perfect service of mlno "out" In
my match with Johnson,
This portion of the Tennis Committee
(meaning myself) was supposed to run
tho Junior events. Whenever schedule ran
behind, the junior events got kicked
around. This was quito correct and the
only, thing to do, but It turned some one's
hair gray trying to keep every. ono in a
good humor and get tho matches off. The
climax came when Osborne nnd myself
committed the unspeakable atrocity of
plnylng a three-set match. Imagine it,
two of the Tennis Committee taking up
the court for more than half an hour.
Tho few well-chosen words wo received
on finishing- moro than i brought down
.whatever swelled head we got from play
ing a good match. .Still, we all had fun.
and tho tournament was a great success,
so I have decided that tho troubles of a
tennis committeeman nro more than made
up for by tho fun he gets out of meeting
all his friends and the bully Bet of fellows
he works with.

for endurance, freedom from the faintest hint of trouble or annoy
ance to Mitchell owners.
The service departments of Mitchell dealers are empty.
Owners just don't bring their cars in, because there is no need.
They run as perfectly after 30,000 miles of use as before. Not
ONE cantilever spring has broken out of 5,000 '16 Mitchells in
use, not ONE of the sweetly true-running mechanisms has
developed a flaw.
The '16 Mitchells are giving a daily service that few cars, at
ANY price, give. And by service we mean an all-embracing term.
We mean a joyous running, a sweeping up the hills, past OTHER
cars, a floating over the bad road spots, not merely with ease
but with RESTFULNESS, a never-failing endurance, a constant
readiness of PERFECT running, a refusal even to get out of
adjustment, a freedom from breakage of parts and even from
noticeable wear. The Mitchell is designed to stay YOUNG and
its builders put the metal and the work and the KNOW HOW
into it to KEEP it staying young beyond the fondest traditions
of the automobile industry.
TVt j Kirs ttgo, when his great club
suddenly buckled up, Connlo Mack
charged u big part ot the trouble to auto
mobiles.
"Too ninny of my men," lio paid, "are
thinking more about their cars than they
nio about the game, which lins paid for
these cars."
.lolin Mctlrnw took tint same stand in
19H and 101B.

Shillings, ot tho llravos, to talto the lead.
.Inst beforo tho llraves started South,
while Stallings nnd liters were ititiiiilng
over tho former's big Georgia plantation,
tho Hravo lender put this proposition to
tho Trojan:
"Johnny," he snltl, "I nm going to get
you to help me out. t want your promise
now that you won't ride In nn automobile
again until the senson I over."
"Does that go ns an order?" nnked
Johnny,
"It docs," Stallings snld.
"In that rase," answered tho star sec
ond bnsoman, "my car stays In Troy un
til October. And. what's more, 1 think
you nro exactly right"
This sntno order goes to overy other
member of tho Itrave siumd. Stallings Is
out to win a ponnnnt till ceason, and
baseball will be tho only game played.
The Oulbrenk
The Dig Chief of UraveJom becatno con
vinced Inst summer tnat too many auto
mobiles and too many automobile parties
were hurting tho efficiency of his club,
Finally, In one game last season, ho lost
nil control. Kvers booted ono at fcecond
and Stallings, raving on tho bench, broke
out with this: "Oh, you I'acknrd 1"
Iludolph passed a man and this fob
lowed: "you Ilttlo Chalmers !"

It can be tnUen for granted that every
manager In the league Is out to win the
ling It ho can.
Ilut wo have never seen n manager more
Intent Upon finishing first thnu Stallings Is
for 13IC. He hollees ho has the material
Iho best ball club he has over led but
he Is taking no chances.
"Wo should Iiavo romped In last sea
son." ho said, "oten with Kvers and James
out. H'e simply tossed It oft. Hut there
will lip (i different Htory to toll this sum
mer. From Ituclollili, Xclif. Hnrncs, Tyler,
Ilngun. Knetzer, Allen and Hughes I am
mint to Iiavo six good pitchers ready, and
alt I need is four. I won out In 1914 Willi
only tlitce. Xehf Is going to bo one of the
Reason's sensations, ono of the year's big
winners. I.eo Mngeo and others tell me
thnt both Knctzer nnd Allen are won
derfully Improved. And tho rest of the
club will bo good enough to back this
pitching up. If wo lose. It will bo because
the National Ienguo has developed a
better ball club than any club It has known
slnco the Cub mnchino was at Ub best."
