Johnny Wilson Says He’s
Greatest Boxer ih
Ring.
BOSTON, July 23—Mr*. Johnny Wil
son, wife of the world’s middleweight
champion, regretted the fact that Mr-. 1
Geoages Carpentier didn’t visit Boston |
recently with her famous husband. ]
Mrs. Wilson had a little surprise all
prepared for Mrs. Carpentier. She
•wanted to take her to dinner at one
ot the fashionable Back Bay hotels and
then aßk the French boxer's wife if her
husband believed be could defeat the
Charlestown chrmpion.
“You know I believe Johnny is the
greatest boxer in the world,” said Mr*.
Wilson
"Os course, he only won the world s
middleweight title when he defeated Mike
O’Dowd, but I feel sure he can defeat
most of the heavyweights. Carpent'.er
would be easy for him.”
When Mrs. Wilson learned that Mrs.
Carpentier had failed to come to Boston
•he wrote her a letter, which was given
to the French champion to present to
Ida wife. The letter follows:
”My Dear Mis. Carpentier—Accept ray
best wishes for yourself. i was very
sorry you were unable to come to Bos
ton. I hope you will be able to visit
our city before you return to France. I
would dearly love to greet you person
ally. .
”It !s only natural that you should
be enthusiastic ever the wonderful box

who has * a record like that of your
illustrious husband is certainly dfserv.
ing of praise
’ n I think, the ugh, that my husband'
would be able to score more points
than your husband in a boxing match.
It would be America against France In
- an international athletic event. , 1 have
enough confidence in my husband's abil
lty as a boxer to feel sure he would
successfully uphold the honor of Amer
iee. With kind wishes to yourself.
• Sincerely yours,
/Signed' “MRS. JOHNNY WILSON”

Zip! The little white missile slapped
the turf way down the farway yards.
It was some drive for a girl, far over
the bunkers; two skilled strokes would
take it in the hole.

1 had lost a ball, and having nothing
to do but look for it, I decided to wait
for the fair lady with the tremendous
wallop arm and look her over.
When she strode up to play her sec
ond stroke, I knew her for one of the
best women players on tbe course.
She looked like a picture out of a fash
ion magazine; snappy black belted coat,
knickerbockers, soft white shirt, a roll
brimmed black sailor shading her eyes
and gray knitted hose formed her attire.
And she surely sets the pace for
feminine sportswomen.
When her second stroke took her on
the green, I decided that I might as well
quit, and gathered up my bag.
At the second hole, teeingoff, wyis a
trio of young matrons, who are devotees
to the art, who play almost daily, always
together.
They wore sport outfits.
Mrs. Kent Morgan and Miss Hazel Wann.
One, blackeyed, brewn-armed and pe
tite, In a two-piece frock of yellow linen
topped off with a rakish little silk hat
of the same shade, looked decidedly j
smart.
Caps are favored by some of th fair
sex.
A slender blond in a bright blue 1
sweater and white skirt, had a checked
cap pulled down over her curly hair,,
giving her a singularly boyish look.
Smocks in brilliant hues are a favorite
garb and make effective splashes against
the velvety green of the fairway.
Here and there I glimpsed a white

a sunburned lass cut across, who had
played since sun up and was beating It
for the shower, perspiring and wind
blown.
As I strolled idly along I encountered
a motherly looking woman who was
placidly pushing the bail around, not
speedy, but happy.
“I play almost every other day," she
said In response to my greeting.
“I like the fresh air and the walking
has reduced me fifteen pounds. I was
uncomfortably fat when 1 took this np.
“I haven't noticed that my golf im-
proves much, but I do love being out
here.”
Continuing on tbe backward path, I
met a slim young woman, jazzing along
at a high rate of speed.
She looked decidedly golfish, a plaid
bag thrown over her shoulder, green
flannel middy and soft felt hat tilted
over one eye. .
“Fine dJy,” she assented to my idle
query, “I don’t care for weather, though.
1 in rain or shine, cold or hot.
Crazy about it.
“I am putting on weight. My shots
don't improve much, but my appetite 1
does.
“I come In the morning and bring my
lunch quite frequently.'
They are all out, the fat, the thin, the !
old, tile young!
They have ruthlessly thrown aside
