fifteen years, announced last night

TRENTON WANTS RAMSEY;
WILL HAVE TO BUY HIM
That Trenton is determined to have
as strong a team as possible is evi
denced by the fact that an effort will

infielder, who is reported to belong to
the Harrisburg club. Recording to
President Morris, of Tn""n. Ramsey
signed a Trenton contract last year
and later signed with the Senators and
he was officially awarded to the latter
club. President Morris is now ready
to take an appeal, claiming that he
is the property of the Trenton club,
but if a cash deal can he arranged
Ramsey may be allowed to remain
with Harrisburg.

Harlem Boy Had Only Endurance
to Back Him Up in
Hard Contest
By Associated Press
San Francisco, Cal., April 18.—Willie
Ritchie, lightweight champion, de
fended his title last night against
"Harlem Tommy" Murphy, of New
York, in convincing fashion. Murphy
fought a courageous, aggressive light,
but never was dangerous, and often
was in distress himself. There was
nn disputing the referee's decision at
the end of the twenty rounds.
Murphy might have been allowed
one questionable round and perhaps
two could have been given him as
even, but the remainder were all
Ritchie's by a wide margin, in the
sixth, the tenth, the fifteenth and
twentieth rounds Murphy was dazed
and staggering. He reeled and
clinched and covered up and leaned
against the ropes. Only his remark

of daring, but the round remained
Ritciiie's by a wide margin.
Murphy scarcely landed a clean
