llilll __B_i3l Willi

Former Believed to be the Peer
olAll tightweights in
the World

l~.‘\er since Charlie White decorated
Willie ltilcliie's countenance and
battered his framework, a lot of per-
sons have been assuring each other
that Willie is a fluke champion. and
that the very next time White gets
the champion into the ring he will
snatch the laurel from the Ritchie
dome and take it unto himself.

All of which causes us to remark
just now that Ritdiie—ein condition»—~
is the peer of any lightweight in the
world. and that it he meets the rush-
ing Chicago Hebrew once again he'll
willw'alld by a margin so wide tliere'll
be no cause for doubt.

Ritchie, to his own great credit. has
offered no alibis for the beating
White gave him. But his trainers
have come along with a pair of them,
and those who saw Ritchie in the
White li'acas said he wasn't the same
man that twice. beat Wolgast and de-
feated Tommy Murphy and beach
Cross in such a whirlwind manner.

Ritchie's trainers claim that the
champion entered the ring when he
was suffering from a raging lever and
from intestinal trouble that left him
in no condition to fight. But instead
of taking to lils bed Ritchie insisted

 

‘upon going through with the bout.
, rather than disappoint the fans.

The second alibi is that lRitchie un
derestimated White's ability to take
punishment. , Knowing that he
couldn't go at top speed forf ten
rounds. the champion began making
White at the tap of the gong in the
first round, hoping to beat him into
unconsciousness by a fuslllade of
blows. But the Hebrew absorbed the
boating. and then when Ritchie, be-
cause of waning strength, was forced
to slow down, White had'enough re-
cuperatlvs power to “come back"
after the fourth,and give the cham-
pion theworst beating of his career.

Ritchie forced the fighting in the
early rounds of the White set-to—
something he never has done before.
llut he forced It "merely because he
figured that his condition was such
that. even if hevwont along on the
defensive during the early part.
would . be too weak at the finish to do
much damage. 'He “doped" it that

' 'White couldn’t stand up under his

whirlwind attack in the early rounds.
llut he “doped" it wrong because ill-
ness had woakoned his punching

. power.

However, if Ritchie fights White

.' again, it's a cinch that he'll be sure of

perfect physical condition—and he'll
be sure not to curry the fight to
White. Those who are taming

HARTFORD TO SEE
DEATH GAMBLE TODAY

 

Beachey and Oldfield Ready for Thril-
ling Race on Charter Oak Track.
HA‘RTF‘ORD. June 12.-»Todsy will

mark the introduction-into Hartford
of the newest stunts of the science of
aerial navigation. the loop~the-loop and
upside down fiying leafs. until a few
months ago pronounced impossible by
scientists who had made a decade‘s
study of the flight of man in heavier-
than-air craft.

Lincoln vBenchey, America's greatest
birdman, a 26-yearold youngster. who
is making what experts declare to be
the greatest contribution to science
since Wilbur Wright first flew the
aeroplane ten years ago over sand
dunes of the North Carolina coast is to
give one of his thrilling exhibitions.
“At Charter Oak Park this afternoon.
'Baney Oldfield. the perennial chance-
taker of the automobile world, will
also participate in a series of dare-dev-
il feats and contests. calculated to
thrill even the most danger-calloused
individual.~ Beachey is to go through
all his aerial tricks with the greatest
biplane ever built. The airman says
he delights to practise tricks that re-
quire only skill and the combination of
thought and action rather than the
stunts calling for bravado and the risk
of life. But he says, the public. out
for a Roman holiday is not attracted
by anything less than the most thril-
ling feats.

large crowd and did very well. com-
pleting the second 18 holes in 77,
which, with his yesterday's score of
77 tor the first 18 holes in his total
154.

Ouitnet’s score places him well with-
in the hundred players qualified for
the final. His game today generally
was weak in the approaches. He was
dead bunkered at the second hole. but
got out splendidly.

tllarry \‘ardon. the British profes-
sional. took 79 today. making his total
152.

James Braid, the Scottish player.dld
today's round in 76. his total being
151.
