It was a pitchers' duel between

Accident Probably Means End
of Rubs'^addel's Pitching
It looks like curtains for Rube
Waddell. The great southpaw
pitcher, whose eccentricities have
made his name a byword among
base ball fans, may never pitch
again. Waddell was struck on the
left arm by a pitched ball, in Bos
ton several days ago and the
bones In the elbow fractured. At
tending surgeons fear that . the
pitching arm will never be able
to work again. -
Erratic and uncertain, Waddell
was, with all his faults, one of the
best southpaws who ever shot a,
| ball up to a batter. He had every-*
thing In the curve line. It has
often been said of him that If he
had been gifted with the brains of
iMathewson he would - have been

the king of pitchers. Connie Mack,
managed Rube better than any
other manager, and the Ruho re

into a couple of pennants. If he
ever had a sore arm no one ever
heard of it, but there was never
any telling whether Rube would
appear at the ball yard or go on a
hunting or fishing trip.
In Houston this spring Rube
renewed -his antics, and Jack
O'Connor had j a heart to heart
talk with him. O'Connor told
him he would either keep in shape
to give his best services to the
Browns at all times during the
season, or he would be. released.
O'Connor meant it, too, and the
Rube kept close to the line.

Should the Jeffries-Johnsou fight
be staged in San Francisco Dis
trict Attorney Fickert will be one
of Its most interested spectators.
Asked, what attitude he would

to stage the big battle, Fickert de

he could determine whether the;
mill was a boxing contest or ft]
prizefight would be to attend' the
exhibition and intently watch the
first few rounds.
"There is a great deal of con

boxing match," he Bald, "and

promoters for the encounter be

only thing that I .possible could do
would be to attend the affair and
