BEEVES. LONDON, Eng.. Aug. 4. That great International sport question, "Why are in ere no neavyweignisj which It seems Is debatable anywhere In the world except France, has reached an acute stage In England. It Is evMnt that this question has become acute because, finally, the classic London Times has given It at tention not hastily, in slap-dash sport style, trat carefully, even pon derously. In nearly a column of close type.- lYeed Heavy Me. The treatment Is In the best schol arly manner, but sadly. It carries the subject little farther than the laconic conclusion of the man In the street that We haven't got 'em be cause we haven't got 'em." "Unless we are prepared to ad mit that the dearth of such fight era la due to the want of some more effective and scientific methods or training. It Is difficult to account for the lack In our em pire of first class boxing heavy weightSvT says the Times. "In spite of the enormous prizes which are offered and the great monetary advantages which accrue to the successful boxer, there is not at the nresent moment within the British empire a heavyweight boxer who Is fitted id compete for a worlds su premacy in boxing. Barns As Trainer. "So poor is the supply in this coun try that it is now believed mlsera- bile dicta that unless Tommy Burns. the Canadian can discover ana tram suitable material, we shall not be able to produce any neavyweiirht of suffi dent ability to enter the ring against our foreign rivals, we nave toe brawn, we have the muscle, we have the pluck, we have the weight, but, alas, we have not, apparently, the trained article, or, indeed, any sys tem of training which Is necessary to produce the scientific boxers fitted to upnoia tne coxing honors or tne em pire. "The lack of scentlfic fighting and want of skill, which are particularly noticeable in our boxing contests, and more particularly in the heavy weight classes, undoubtedly arise from lack of correct and scintlfic In struction. The Times has Its theories as to why big men don't fight. As boys their size has automatically insured them against attaeK and against having to learn to defend themselves. Therefore when the embryo heavyweight grows up and becomes ambitious for ring honors he has had no natural Would Change Rules For Babe - Bambino Is Passed Too Much By SAM CHICAGO. HI. Aug. 4. That Babe Ruth's reputation as a home run miter aaa oeexx wo cmei. means ox the Yankees drawing more people to their games at home and abroad than ever before in the long history of baseball Is generally acknowledged by officials of the American league and random. Now, we will say that the New Tork American Iexgue club will attract to their games 2,049,000 patrons this sea son and that, by the way, is a con servative estimate, according to the writer opinion. "V. Homers Draw Crowds. TTo will say that Ruth's circuit clou ting ability has so far drawn 1.0CO,000 patrons. This Immense num ber of spectators have paid their good money for the especial purpose of see ing Babe perform the feat that has made him, far famed and the biggest drawing card in basebalL Hind yon every clnb owner In the American league has shared with CoL Rupert and Huston In the prosperity that has resulted from Ruth's popularity. "Why, then should they not be made to realize that it Is te their advan tage to give Roth a fair chance to demonstrate his wonderful powers s a Utterr The season's record so far shows that Ruth has "walked" to first base over 100 times. It Is safe to say that he had been purposely passed that number of times. There It something good and rea sonable In the idea of making the penalty for an intentional pass heavier by giving the batter two bases in. stead of one, etc, etc The Simplest Rule. The SlmDleat rule, in m-w nnlnlnn would be to oblige the catcher to stay In his box and, if he does not do so, declare it a balk that will give the hatter first or second or third base and advance all runners on bases ac cordingly.

He has gone in for higher mathematics and things of that sort. When he arrived here he said that his bout with Wlllard was crooked and not straight. He Is certain, however that the Jails here are straight and not bent, but he insists that the world instead of being round is oval and he will write a book on that subject. LIT Artha, like another gent who played a sretch in the Hoose Gow, is certain of one thing. That other gent wrote: T know not whether laws be right Or whether laws be wrong. All that we know who He in Jail, Is that the walls are strong. . training In speed and aggressive- neaa. lie has to be started at the beginning? and teaching a folly grown big fellow to be quiet Is rated as considerable task. "Beckett shou vm the physical standpoint be able to hold his own with any heavyweight the world can produce." the writer continues, "but he lacks quickness, lacks ability to avoid punishment, and also lacks many of those necessary habits of correct foot and hand work, which must be associated with anyone who has the right to be consdered a cham pion boxer. He Lacks Essentials. Which, to those of us who saw him meet Carpentier. seems to be one way of saying he has everything but the essentials of a fighter. There are many other heavy weight men. the article continues." who have all the essential physical qualities which should make them worlds champion boxers, but until they are properly trained to avoid pumsnment, to move ana to hit cor rectly, they will never be able to hold their own against scientifically trainea Doxers ox ineir own we cm: the one and great difficulty appears to oe tnat tnere is co one woo can thus train them. In this country where big fights are evening dress affairs, attended by ores ana isaies ana me "upper crust" of the nation, the Times sees deca dence rather than a boom in the Anglo-Saxon manly art. CRAJVE. bound down to that rule, the pitchers will have no end of trouble In preventing the batter hitting the ball unless It Is thrown to the ground or at the man at bat. Rut that would be proof enough to the umpires that an Intentional pass was the pitch er's object. There will be suggestions without number sent In, of course, but to hold the catcher in his box will be the real foundation to work upon. Little ex tra burden would bo put on the um pires by such a rule. Surely it will be to th best Inter est of baseball that the batters are given a show for their white alley. TEXAS LEAGCS.

The Sox had scored In the second Inning on Sothoron's two base wild throw on Ted Jourdan and Ray SchaUc's drive for tbe same distance. They had the bases loaded and none defunct when tbe game stopped. Faber, In this fray, was well on his way to a record in assists, for he had five in three Innings, three being grouped in the third. Admirers of George Harold Staler probably are Just as glad this game went into the discard, since his was up once and , groundered out to Weaver. Add one time at bat to the Michigan Harveke iszo record and you have it com' nlete. Players who lost hits thro as: h this game being stopped were John Ge- aeon, ivenneui wuiiams ana iarry Liebold. who sinaied. and Bar Schalk: ana ueorge weaver, wno doubled. scaauc .tsats in Ron. Ray Schalk batted In a run in this game. Ted Jourdan scored a ran. Ed die Collins drew two passes and Bill Jacobson struck out once. On June lo the Yankees, playing in Detroit, scored five runs in the ninth for the loss of two men. and all these runs went into the discard and some other things with them, since ciav. stopped, never was resumed. a ota, and that he is really the only man in the world able- to give Demp sey a battle that will test the cham pion thoroughly and prove whether he Is as good as bis admirers claim. They point to the fact that Dempscy has never been forced to take any great amount of punishment and declare that he will have to stand np tinder si heavy bombardment both of the body and head before he will he able to drop Wills. In their opin ion Wills lm a better man than Jess Wlllard ever was and if given a chance at the title will prove their contention right. Whether Dempsey will take WlHs on is the question. The champion says he will fight any man In the world if tha nubile demands that he do so. But there must be a pot of coin in it for Dempsey every time he enters the ring and the impression Is that a Dempsey-Wills bout will not draw any too well. And fata de creed that Fulton drop the colored man. a Dempsey-Fulton mill would have been a wonderful attraction and would have drawn all sorts of money. Should Meet Carpentier. From a business standpoint, and no one can say that Jack Kearas. the champion's manager, is not a busi ness man. it would be better for Dempsey to fight Carpentier before taking on Wills. This bout would bring in a young fortune, and shouldn't be a very hard one for Dempsey to win. Charles Cochran's offer of fifty thousand pounds for the mill, if held in London, Is pretty sweet money and easy picking. A trip to Europe would be a pleasure, a bout with Carpentier a cinch, and the money Just what Dempsey needs. In the meantime,, the probabili ties are that Dempsey will take on Bill Brennan in a limited round contest In this state. This will give the followers of the stanly art a chance to see Just how good the champ is after his long layoff and then compari sons conld be made between the STANDINGS TEXAS LEAGUE.
