HOLDS EHMKE IN FAST BOUT! Fargo, April 26—Al Webster, who hails from the wilds of Montana, came a great tistance to show the Fargo fight fans that he can fight, and that his victories over Jack Bailey and Battling Krause must have been the result of an honest effort.” For last night Webster fought 10 furious rounds with Billy Ehmke of St-Paul in the Fargo arena, and * he held the hard hitter to a draw.

Petrolle and Jones did their best { for: 10 rounds, but their best was not-habf as good as the brand of fight offered by Ehmke and Webster.

Billy Evans Says | —. BY JOE WILLIAMS New York, April 25.—Tie trouble, if any, with Billy Gilmore, recently rived from Dublin with the light- weight championship of Ireland, is that he fails to sustain any of the popular illusions which _ fictionists have associated with that country, and its picturesque citizenry. For instance, Mr. Gilmore does not smoke a clay pipe. On grecting re- porters and other undesirables, he does not say, “Begorra, I'm glad to mect you, bye.” He expresses no uncontrollable passion for corned leet and cabbage and mention of the king of England does not bring the flush of anger to his face. It is going to be hard for those of us who take our romance, from printed pages to warm up to Mr. Gil- mere as a legitimate representative ci the Eméfald Isle. Aside from his rich dulect brogue, the young gent seems to be just an average persun. He even lacks the belligerent note expect to find in a champion fehter from-a champion fighting ecuntry. BEAT ONE of the MALONEY BOYS Mr. Gilmore is here looking for a Eighteen years ago the great Wal- ter Johnson made his debut in the American League. Detroit beat him 2 to 1 after a heetic struggle, It was my very good fortune to umpire the first game that Walter Johnson pitched in the American League. Facing a club noted for its slug- ging ability, feared by every pitcher in the American League, the un- known Johnson, with no professional experience, forced ’em to the limit to win. Johnson pitched that game, as well s many others during the next few years, using only a fast ball, as his weapon of pitching deception, Johnson had no curve ball, lacked a change of pace, but to use the words of Nick Altrock, he had plenty of swift. Opposing teams were soon wise to the fact that the green rookie from Weiser, Idaho, used nothing but speed. Also he early established a reputation for control. With this knowledge, rival batters hugged the plate, and whaled away at every pitch that looked good, knowing that it was a fast ball. Despite this, almost overnight, Johnson became famou Inside of a year he was heralded as the pitch- ing sensation of the majors. Eighteen years have passed | and Walter Johnson is still the pitching sensation of the big leagues. Perhaps some of the zip is missing oi his fast one, yet American League batters still compliment his speed by saying you can’t hit what you can't see. = ter Johnson has. mastered a boasts a good change of pace, Lut after 18. campaigns, it is his great speed that still baffles the op- position, Walter Johnson's performance in the opening day game of 1924, a four- hit shutout, is in many -ways more extraordinary than his debut defeat. It was again my good fortune to call balls and strikes, as Johnson, after years of strenuous campaigi ing, blanked the *hard-hitting Ph adelphia Athletics on April 15, 1924. His great record as a pitcher is a glowing tribute to proper living. | Walter Johnson stands out as the great ideal for Young America.

They not «nly take steps to protect him, but they even buy him in lacge numbers to act as helper in their gardens, Here, in America the toad's life 1s indeed a precarious one; hunted. alike by natural and unactural em- emies, it-is 2 wonder thar he is able te survive at al'. And, when to'this is added the torture he frequently 1s compelled to undergo at the hands of those for where benefit he .uncea- singly labors, it would seem as though he must find this a cruel- world inded. - The toad‘s dict consists of creep-. ing, crawling and flying insects. His tongue ftits back and forth like lightning and it is seldom indeea that he misses his catch. Silent and inconsptcious he sits amid the freen leaves of a garden dcing his valuable work. Why, then, do so many: of us hate him. ‘Is it because he is homely? We used to hear that if we touched a toad we would get warts. What foolishness and superstition for us to believe any such thing. I have handled many toads, and am not the least bit afraid of them. This is pro- bably bedause my grandfather who owned and operated a truck farm in Ghio never permitted a toad to be harmed in ‘his presence and taught me their value.
