It is written in the books of pupil-
lsiic history that Ritchie was award:
ed the championship on a foul by
Referee Griffin. Theoretically this
is true. but actually Wolgast was as
thoroughly 'fout" as was any battlcr
who ever relinquished his honors via
the knockout formula.
The outcome of the stray; e was
a stupendous surprise. Ritchie was
a little known fighter at the time.

San Francisco youth's victory and
the fact that he was awarded the
title on a foul did not help his case
any. The eastern attitude was that
it was "one of those native son
things." .

All of which was, of course. unfair
to Ritchie. who was as fine a right-
handcd puncher as the llghtwalsbt
division ever know and whose win
ovler Woigast was as clear-cut and
deserving as if he had knocked the
Cadillac (Mich.) German absolutely
cold.

Wolgnst had the better of the
early rounds. Coming to his cor-
uor at the end of the sixth round the
champion boasted, “Watch me get
this guy in the next round. I'll jab
him to pieces." lie talked so that
he could be heard half way to the
main doors. He was that type of
youth. . _.

But Wolgast did nor get Ritchie in
the next round. ortho next. or still
the next. Instead he btgun to fade

LLY

In a hockey game. the enthu-
siast laments the frequency of off-
sldc play. it stops action. Infect-
ball there are any number of minor
technicalities that must be enforced
yct take a certain punch from the
sport. In basketball. it's the out-
of-bounds abomination.

Recently in Washington. two of
the American League teams played
a game in which a net that sur-
rounded the court prevented any
outoof-bounds.

 

] understand there was plenty ac-
tion in the game, also that it. was a.
trifle rough. This was to-‘be ex-
pected. since the ball was constant-
ly in play, except for the calling of
a foul or held bail.

It is questionable if the out-of-

bounds can be eliminated in basket-
ball. The game is quite strenuous
as it is. calls for great stamina and

’ I doubt if the players could stand up

under the strain of continuous play.

However. the value of any sug-
gestion or innovation can only be do-
icrmincd by making the experiment.
That is often done in football.

Since tnuchiof the strategy ‘of
basketball starts from out-oftbcund
plays. I doubt if any coach could
be found who would approve of the
Washington experiment.

Without an instant's hesitation
Referee Griffin pushed Woignst
away. helped Ritchie to his feet. and
