They AUNTS SHAW IN FINE FORM Club Never Appeared In Better Condition Than This Year. BY JOHN B. FOSTER (Copyright 1925 The Casper Tribune} SARASOTA, Fla., March 23.—The players under John J. McGraw's guidance have never looked better than they do this spring. It might be decoration day in New York, rather than a spring day in Florida, judging by their form. Just as was the case in 1924, the principa] factor In estimating the New York Giants’ chances of cap- turing their firth consecutive pen: nant is the condition of their pitch- This ts not a new idea. The verlest baseball novice could dis- ver {t upon looking the team over. When one notes how well it is for. tified on the infield and what a fine reserve it has for the outfield and when one considers the quality of its catchers, one readily perceives that the pennant question Is squarely up to the pitehers. If they do well. the Glants will storm into their fifth pennant. If they fall down, the Giants will be forced to a fight. But they have materia] with which to t—material which stands super- for to that of most of the teams with which they come in contact. It ts {dle to figure upon the pos- sibility that the Giants will break because some of thelr players are closo to the baseball meridian or have passed it. Any ball team runs the risk of breaking down the mo- ment it takes the field. But just now the Giants show no signs of a break. The strongest National League team the writer has seen so far, as against the Glants, is Pittsburgh. The Chigago Cubs appeared to be Posies but they have lost the ervices of Rabbit Maranville to begin with. ‘The Giants’ power of attack will so a long way toward deciding the National League race. If Pittsburgh overcomes its diffidence or back- wardness, or whatever {t has been in the past that always manifests itself when the fight becomes too close and single games mean as much as pay dirt tn a gold mine, they may steer the sharp bow of thelr craft {nto the Giant gunboat to do that. They can't be@t this and wreck it. But they have got veteran team despite all thelr speed unless they can utilize that speed to the last ounce all the time.

Cox, the out: fielder we bought from Portland, bats and fields in a manner to make me believe we will add real strength to the team. My infield, lournler at first High at second, Mitchell at short and Johnston at third, is work- ing splendidly. “The only setback has been tn minor strains. High and Johnston are nursing these injuries. I will not, at this time, pass on my new pitchers, I will name neither the best nor the worst. They may re- verse themselves and me next week. But I will say that Ehrhardt, the player we obtained from the Cotton States league last fall, is looking fine this spring and I expect to use him regular. “We are handicapptd in our ex- hibition games by the absence of our three star veteran pitchers, Vance, Grimes and Doak. Dazzy has just signed his contruct and begun to work out with the club. But he will soon be ready as he came south tn mid-winter. Grimes and Doak have not reported yet. They want more money on long contracts.” pa a ao ach Mother Wants Husker Coach To Quit Game HASTINGS, Neb., March 23.— (United Press}—Ernest F.

I saw the first game he played in. but I never saw another. It was too rough. “I so wanted Ernest to be a doc- tor, or a lawyer.

(United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, March 23.—Despite vehement dentdis that he intends to return to the ring, stories persist that Benny Leonard, retired light weight champion, has not retired bermanetly and that he will return to the ring for one more fight. When he announced that he was quitting the ring, Leonard said that it was an act prompted by the de- sire of his mother whose health had been endangered by worry over his safety when he was training and Cighting. The hard-boiled gentry took # laugh up the sleeve and eaid that Benny was retiring because he couldn't make the weight for the lightweight class and couldn't find the heart to tackle Mickey Walker in the welterweight class. His retire- ment on these grounds had been ex: pected for a year, Considering that a Walker-Leon- ard fight had been ranked by Tex Rickard as the second most attrac: tive show that could be arranged for the outdoor season and that his purse might have been as much as $150,000, it was considered unusual that a business man of Leonard's known sagaity should have tossed it aside and passed up a title that is worth at least a quarter of a mil- Hon dollars to any old titleholder, There are many who refused to belleve that Leonard was serious when he stepped down from the throne and there are just as many who do not believe now that he is through as a fighter, “You wait and see,’ QUESTION BOX if you have some question to ask about baseball, football, box: ing or any other amateur or pro fessional sport— lf you want a rule tnterpreted— Ig you want to know afything acout 4 play or player— Write to John B Foster, on vaseball.

Was it Kid Murphy who took the title away from him? Answer—Joe Bowker of England defeated Frankie Nei] of California {n 20 rounds for the world's ban- tamweight championship in London October 17, 1004. Jimmy Walsh of Boston claimed the American title and was accepted as such and went over to England to fight Digger Stanley for the tnter- national championship May 24, 1909. The fight was called a draw at the end of 20 rounds. Walsh became too heavy for the bantam class and Johnny Coulon of Chicago claimed the title. He successfully defended it until knocked out by Kid Williams of Baltimore in four rounds {n Ver- non, Cal., June 9, 1914. Kid Murphy may have set up a claim as the champion but his claim was not taken serlously. His first meetitng with Coulon, which re sulted in a vietory In 10 rounds, was in 1907. Coulon won from Murphy twice in ten round bouts ty 1908, Coulon knocked out Kid Murphy in five rounds on February 11, 1909 in New York City. You will note that the tights took place before Coulon was the accred: ited champion. The records do not show any fight between the pair while Coulon was champion. a well-known Question—Umpire is behind the pitcher, Ball is batted to pitcher who fumbles it.

He's laid away money to keep him in comfort for the rest of his days and hia earn- ing capacity fs sufficient to keep him in spending money. I know Leonard almost as well as his moth- er knows him and I am quite cer- tain that he never will fight again. If he had any Intention of returning to he ring I am sure that I would know about it,” It Isnt’ Ukely that Leonard would return to the ring to meet Mickey Walker. He might have plans to meet the winner of the elimination tournament now being conducted to find his successor, but it is improb- able that he would come back to fight the welterweight champion, Leonard blew at match with Wal- ker last summer. It will be recalled that articles were signed and that Leonard was looking at about $160,- 000. He booked a warm-up contest with Pal Moran in Cleveland and came out of the match with a broken thumb. It was considered un- usual that a boxer as cautious and as careful as Leonard was of his hands, and as good a sharpshooter as he was, should have injured his hand just before such an import- ant bout, Leonard called off the fight event- ually and not only blew his own purse but caused Walker to hold the bag for his share of the purse and a larger sum that he had turned down in other matches that he could have taken In the meantime. Some smart followers of the ring said at the time that Leonard found out it would not be wise to fight Walker. A defeat at the hands of a welterweight champion would not have affected his standing as a light: weight, but !t would have injured his prestige and Leonard for a long time has been figuring drawing div: 1d8nds from the name of a retired champion. He wouldn't be worth so much on the stage and in the movies if he had been flattened by Walker. Jack Britton is one of the best pickers in the buriness. The former welterweight champion seldom fails to call the turn on a match. * You can have my dough that Walker will stop Leonard if they ever meet,” Britton sald before the match was made. “I have fought both of them and I believe I am competent to pass an opinion. Leonard never cou! take the beating that Walker woul give him around the body and Leon ard can't hit hard enough to stop Walker. He's the greatest little man in the ring.” Leonard insists that he !s through with the ring. The rumors that, he wan going to stage a comeback were traced to a plece of copy that was rent out by the press agents for his act for which he was not respon- sible, he says.
