There is a strong probability that
the glove contest betwaen l‘nckey Mt-
i-‘ulland and [Alike Gibbons will he
held in New York before June. The
rc-entrance of Billy Gibson. the for-
mer manager of the Garden A. 0., ii-
to the boxing game at the new Stu-
dinm A. (7., at St. Nicholas Rink. is an
encouraging indication that the big
boat will he stdged there. The boat
has been the subject of country-wide
dzscusuiou since. last winter, and the
tumors failed to agree on the financial
details of the match when Gibson
Pied to arrange it at Madison Square
Garden.

Gibson's new club, the Stadium A.
it. will probably receive the sanction
0‘. the Boxing Commission in the near
iuture. and the boxing promoter is
aiready looking ahead for several big
bouts. Gibson and McFarland are
(dose. friends. and if the Chicago box-
M‘ consents to box at all it will be for
(.iibson. McFarland is now in Kansas
t'ity and is in t'reduent communion
tion with the new Stadium's manager.
L\§(~.i"tlrlulld and Gibson already plau-
ned to take a- trip to Europe in June.
so it is very likely that the boat will
tux. decided before thut time.

i.lGHTWEiGHTS TO HOLD FORTH.

Lightweights continue to Inonopo~
lizo the sporting calcium as is evi-
denced by the fact that two of the
most important ring fixtures for the
immediate future will be provided by
the 13 5-p0unders. Willie Ritchie and
Harlem Tommy Murphy are sched-
uled to meet on April 17 in San
Francisco, while eleven dais‘lnter
Leach Cross and Freddie Welsh Brit~
i.~h champion, will hook up in a 20-
round setto in hos Angolan.

Following these matches. it is more
than likely that both Ritchie and
(‘ross will sign for other contests. The
Queensbury Athletic club of Milwau-
kee, which recently staged the rec-
ord $40,000 match between Ritchie
and Wolgast. wants both the cham-
pion and Cross to box before June.
Ritchie and Charley White have been
suggested as one card. while Cross is
wanted to meet either Wolgast or
White. in all prohnbiitly there will
be. something definite deviop in con-
tention with thee matches at on
turiy date as the terms offered have
been satisfactory to all principals.

Ritchie has sent wind to Milwau-
kee. promoters that .he will welcome
another meeting with Wolgast, but
there seems little chance of this
u‘atrh being staged until next fall
as the Michigan Dutchman wants to
test his sore left hand out in a series
I!" minor contests before engaging the
champion in. another title match.
Wolgast'a next important contest will
to with Johnny‘ Tillman. n Minneap-
riie sclapper, who has been coming
among in nicostylewithln the past
winter. The clash between Walnut
and Tillman will take place before
the Hudson. Wis, Athletic club on
April 17.

After this battle. it is probable that
.Wolgaat will appear before one of the
Milwaukee clubs. Just who his 0p~
ponent will be has not been decided,

~3..,.

but there is a chance that Charley

White will be secured. This pair put
up a sensational argument some weeks
ago and there has been a demand for.
a rematch ever ulnce.

i‘allibiiity of the much abused umplrc'

was uncovered in Monday‘ a game here,‘

but i'Ol some reason escaped general
notice at the time. A New Orleans:
bane runner was called out on a ground
ball that struck him after being def
flected by Stock. At a meeting last
winter the joint committee on playing

rules revised this section of the code

exempting a runner from penailzntion
under such conditions. Had the tim-
pire been. familiar with the new rule
he would have permitted the base run.

nor in 'question to score for his side. '

That would have saved New Orleans
from the stigma. of a. shutout.

 

TIGERS HAVE TALLEST
TWIRLER iN LEAGUE

hfldh‘lPiil'S, 'l‘enn., April 0.—"i‘hcre
is one pitcher on the ’l‘lgers' squad.
one of the newcomers. whose job in
just about assured. t

This fortunate man is Miles Main,
the. perpendicular person from Flint.
Mich. who was drafted from Buffalo
last fall. this method of acquiring him
being cheaper than purchase by the
yard would have been. He is doing
wonderful work in practice, and all
the Tigers are united in saying that he»
is a hurler of big league calibre. 1

Main has one big advantage in that
he is about the tallest man on earth
anti can hand the ball to the batter
right off the ends of his fingers when
he gets! tired of pitching. Standing
with one heel on the rubber, it, is the
softest thing in the world for him to
shake hands with the catcher. He
stands a merely 6 feet, ti inches above
term firm. in his Hoieproot‘. right
now and is still growing. so unless
Ban Johnson issues an order limiting
the size of slabmen, Detroit will be
very proud of him when he attains
his full length.

Now that Fred Falkenberg has left
baseball for the Federal Manna, Main
will be the loftiest hurler in. the
American circuit. He didn't come in
as a. frank. howover, but as a mounds-
mnn of much talent. The mere fact
that he is taller than Walter Johnson
doesn‘t make him a better pitcher, be
known. so he is trying to do things
that will cause the fans to refer to
him nc‘iin engine of destruction rather
than an example of the skyscraper
school of human architecture.

'l‘yrus Cobb. after facing the big
Michignnder in batting practice a few
times, came through with a lot of
compliments for him, The Peach said
that hlnin's delivery is one of the most
baffling he ever had tried to hit had
predicted that he would be one of the
sensations of the league this season.
'l‘yrus, it may be remarked in passing,
in something of a judge of pitchers,
and when he says one is hard to
hit. you may safely wager that there
in something on the ball.
