That hit is alleered to haTAe Kee S45 feet from the heme plate before it touched the sroand, and Is doubtless the record en the Boston field. According to WIRfe XcGIlI, the left handed pitcher, Frank Dillon, now manager at Los AnKcles. and Jimmy Ryan, the veteran Chicago star, the longest clear, straiisntaway hit they ever saw was palled off at Lincoln park, Chicago, In lStl, by one Irwin M cDowcII, a college ball player who Is ' now in the iron and steel business.

Australian Welter To Come To America After the Title Jimmy ClaVfey Retires and Leaves a. New Question te Be Settled 'Aside From the Middleweight Muddle; Australian Promoter Sets Forth Views. MILWAUKEE, Wis.. June 12. With Hughfe Mehesan. the Australian champion light weight, thinking of touring the United States, and with a claim to the welterweight tile also, the ques tion of welterweight champion of tf.at country has been taken up. Jimmy Clabby, who ha, ttttomt -the With Hughie Mehegan, the Australian champion HghtweJeht, thinking of touring the United tSates, and with a claim to the welterweight title also, the question of welterweight cham pion of that country has been take up. Jimmy Clabby, who had about the best claims to the championship before he outgrew the class, has come out v. ith the anor.ncement that he- does' not claim it longer as he cannot make the weight and will class himself In the future as a middleweight. The defeat of Ray Bronson, of Indianapolis, by Packey McFarUnd leaves the wel . terweight question open again, as Packey does not lay claim to it, pre ferring to remain a lightweight, Mike Gibbons cannot make the American welterweight limit of 142 pounds and therefore cannot claim the title, al though if he could make the weight he would be accorded the title with out opposition. -E. C. Oovell, of Sydney, has taken up the question in Australia and writes me as follows regarding it: "The welterweight championship has caused a jrood deal of 'discussion in this country where the limit is tiie nCUCruub UJ1C ui. xvi pvuuuo. AS in; I Americans stoD the welters at 10 stone j two pounds (142 pounds) there is like ly to be difficulty when an American and an Australian meet. However, Hughie Mehegan (who presently goes abroad), is now undisputed holder of the title as far as Australia Is con cerned. He boxes well under either limit, as his usual weight is . 13 pounds, only one pound heavier than the world's lightweight limit, Some claims for the welterweight champion ship of Australia were put forward on behalf of the little American. Jimmy clabby. The man without joints -from Milwaukee put his case this way: "There has been a lot of talk," he said, "about me and the welterweight cham pionship. Well, I want to say right here that I do not claim to be the wel terweight champion of the world now. In America the welterweight limit Is 10 stone two pounds, and I have grown over that limit, I could not possibly make 142 pounds hi anything like de Us Boys UfCT -3KNMAV LSWrVAM' I DEAfLVOHAF fVlOAW 'IFSHE lUNOER IHcE Kau. ic -mc NiATTPI? wvj.--. mn-ic -- . arsTsTs'sis' rf"-5 . .. - SiBe-S T uc ----"-f7 rw msmm - f i I 'SSSfs? trr.7 My?i d&Z'WZk. r i s . sme jzy kfvtva ea-asrVQMLJ f SffHWM I S F ihKf U -?!M r rFW v NP HM &TW& 17 ffifl 7 V V-t- 1 I Ja. 5s3 i L.

Since I cannot defend the title of champion of the welters. I don't claim it. it is the same with the English limit of 147 pounds. I don't feel inclined to reduce myself below that weight either. For some reason it is supposed that the Australian wel terweight limit is 147 pounds also. 1 don't know who fixed it, and I don't know wh6 your Australian welter weights are who box within that limit. I fntre not "been able to find them. 1 have found, however, that the amateur welterweight limit Is l4f pounds ana m the absence of any authority which fixes Australian professional standard, it seems to me that 149 pounds can be regarded as the Australian welter weight lfanit, just as easily .as 147." Mehegan is not without his own claims to the welterweight champion ship of the world) a title which Clabby with his increasing weight is forced to put out of his reckoning. Ray Bron son, the American, is at present the most generally recognised pretender to the honor. But he was beaten by Hughie Mehegan in Sydney last year. "After being soundly beaten by me at the Stadium, Sydney, in a 29 round battle on January 2, 1911," says Hughie Mehegan, "Ray Bronson re turned to the United States and after about a lapse of a year laid claim t the welterweight championship of the world. " This was generally supposed to belong to my friend and recent op ponent, Jimmy Clabby, and the Amer ican press, which is really the decider of such matters in that country, did not immediately recognize the claim of Bronson to the. title." But it Is a patriotic country, which hates to see championships go abroad, as world champion Jack Johnson dis covered to his pain. So when Bronson stuck doggedly to his claim and an nounced himself ready to defend it wtib his immaculate left arm, and kept his promise- by downing a small proces sion of aspirants, the press be gan to look upon the claim with a more friendly eye; and after his fine showing at Indianapolis on February 22 of this year, when he bested "Young Erne," of Philadelphia, in a IS round affair, the press went right over and hailed him as "logical welterweight champion of the world." What a logical champion is I am not prepared to say, but I presume that it means that in the opinion of the sport ing press, the welterweight champion ship of the world has gone astray, or been mislaid, and in the face of any evidence to the contrary, Bronson had better be allowed to keep it. It is certain that when Mehegan gets to America he will use every effort to get a match with Bronson, the "cham pion" whom he has beaten before. EMr AWHOEO TT ASK EA6UEB6AKS KID PLEASE WOOUDNrTELl.

Not for Bob. His invention to cripple a famous warrior is the knee ball. "I've heard pitchers talk about try- ing to get Cobb-that is, get him to i,ear uie oaii oy inruwiog h m nia head," says Wallace, -'but players or Cobb's alertness can dodge the pitch when they see it coming to their head. Throw it at their knees and it'll hit "em, sure. Moving the head and step ping sway with the feet are quite I different. If a pitcher wants to get Cobb or any slugger to weaken and to lose his stride, just round one around their knees. That'll get them, and if one ever hits them they'll be sure to shy." And then Wallace related an Incident of the bean ball, one which cracked him on the jaw and turned him from a .400 batter to a .200 sticker. "Gee, I'll never forget the time Chick Frazer bumped me on the jaw, just below the eye, when I wafc with Cleveland." continued Wallace. "I was hitting over .400, and the day that ball crashed against my cheek my swat average started to tumble, and it's still going down." John Henry Fiilman has no patience with a pitcher who would try to hit a batter. "I would suspend indefinitely a pitcher who would try and dent a batter's cupalo. One who would strive to maim- another has no place in base ball am) should be chased- out of the sport. Players have to take enough legitimate chances on getting hurt without being forced to stand up and be thrown at," is the way Fiilman sizes up the situation. CLOVIS XIXK DKFXATS SANTA KK APPRKXTICKS Clovis, N. M-, June 12.

DODDRETURNSTO GnLVESTGN CLUB Is Good Utility Man, but Better Hitting Infielder Found by Houston. Houston. Texas, June 12. Infielder Tjodd, the former T. C U. boy who has been understudying Fiilman on second and Newman on first for the Buffalos of late, has been returned to Galveston with thanks. When Fiilman sustained injuries to his left hand Maloney sent Dodd to Houston with the understand ing that if he proved satisfactory a certain sum would be paid for him. Houston was given until June 10 to decide. Fillman's recovery and the chance to pick up an infielder who is regarded by the local club owners as a better hitter than Dodd were re sponsible for the decision. It is by no means certain even yet that Houston will waive all chances to get a line on Dodd. for he is too val uable an infielder and is too good a utility man to be passed np. It is safe to say that there is not a utility man in the Texas league today as well qual ified to piay second, short or first as Dodd. His great work around second for Houston during Fillman's absence from the lineup showed that. There Are better, hitters extant, but oae will have to search far and wide to find Dodd's equal as a versatile fielder. Given some help and more encourage ment with the stick he should de velop in that department of play. Houston owes the youngster many thanks for the part he has played during the long winning streak. Houston would be making no mis take by signing Dodd for good. He is one of the few lads who could have delivered the goods under the circum stances. SOME CHOICE, FRESH BIG LEAGUE GOSSIP The Naps have a young mascot who, although knee high to a grasshopper, looks like a pocket edition of Hal Chase at first during the practice ses sions when the Dig leaguers toss to him. Harry Davis thinks the Yankees have landed a great star in Pat Maloney. the Brockton outfielder. Davis watched the career of the youngster last fan and tried to land him, but was outbid by the New York club. Jack Graney. the Naps' leadoff man, is ranked among the team's weakest hitters, yet he gets on base nearly as often as Joe Jackson. In the last IS games Graney has drawn 18 passes. These, with a few errors and hits, put him on first 34 times, while Jackson got his base 56 times during the same period, although he is batting about 1100 points higher than Graney. The Naps have a young collegian who will soon get a trial. His name is Chester L. Miller. He received his baseball education at Wittenberg col lege. Springfield, Ohio. In five games he fanned 92 men, an average of more than 18 a game. AM-ARILLO HEATS DALHART. -Dalhart, Texas, June 12. The Dalhart Blues honored Amarillo and met the crack local team on home ground.

MAKING WEIGHT-IS HARD ON BATTLERS When a boxer makes an unnatural weight, he places himself at the mercy of his opponent. Such matches are an injustice to the spectators, who pay to see two well matched men. This was the case m the recent Johnny Coulon-Harry Forbes match. It is doubtful if Forbes could have won at his best, but there was no chance for him at Kenosha, for he had been "sweated" until his strength was gone. Such matches should be frowned nn, and promoters who match men under such conditions should be put out of business. There is no sportsmanship in send ing a boy into the ring with strength sapped by weight making. The New York state boxing commission might watch this angle, as well as investigat ing alleged fake matches. Billy Nolan, manager of Battling Nelson, forced Joe GaDs to -weigh in at the ringfield in Goldfield. with his "togs" on and make a weight that took his strength, although Gans's gameness carried him through J0 rounds of wonderful fighting. Some attribute Gans's death to this. Kid Lavigne made Joe Walcott do unnatural weight and had him whipped before he started. Billy Bronson put up $500 to make 140 pounds for Hughey Mehegan. in Australia, and could not reduce by training, so took to a Turk ish bath until an hour before the fighL, to save his money. He was as weak as a kitten. When Coulon fought Conley at New Orleans, the latter made 116 pounds four hours before the fight and the weight kiHeerhbj chances, as it will at Los Angeles. "FAKE, F.1KB." CROWD YELLED AXD THE REFEREE QUT RI.U. New Haven. Conn.. June 12. Johnny Coulon. of Chicago, bantamweight champion, laat night figured in a fight with Frank ie Hayes, of St. Louis, which fens looked upon as a fake. The bout was scheduled to go 10 rounds, but at tbe end of the third referee FitzgeraM left the ring refusing to officiate in what he said was a -frame up." Chief of police Cowles ordered thi fight to go on. The boys went at it again, but before they had been fight ing a minute, in the fourth. Hayes went to the floor. He remained there till the count of eight, but after a. cou ple of seconds want down again, this time being counted out. MORE SWIMMERS QtALDrY FOR OLYMPIC DELEGATION New York. K Y.. June 12.
