It was pre- pared in collaboration with Bozeman Bulger, for publication exclusively for The Star and the North Amer- jcan Newspaper Alliance. Shortly before Rickard’s death he discussed with Bulger plans for publication of these memoirs in book form. Fol- lowing is the fifth installment of the autobiography, which is appearing in daily chapters. BY TEX RICKARD. (In Collaboration with Boseman Bulger.) North American N relating the incidents of those hard boyhood days among the cat- tlemen and the tragedies that must have influenced my later life to a certain extent, 1 don't want to give the impression that we were devoid of tenderness. Quite the contrary. At the age of 16 I was employed to go with a herd of cattle all the way to Montana. Look at a map, and you may realize just what that meant. The cattlemen, always seeking a mar- ket, had found that by driving a herd of longhorns to Montana and_grazing them there for a few months they would gain from 50 to 60 pounds a steer. They could then be shipped to Kansas City and sold at real profit. One night we had camped to let the herd bed down for the night. I was sent out to scout around the edge of the herd and see that everything was all yight. On this ride I ran across 2 little calf, born during the day, that had lost its mother. The little fellow was so weak and hungry I knew it would die if left alone. To find its mother in a herd of 5,000 was impos- sible; besides, the calf couldn’t have kept up with the moving herd when we started out next morning. Carried Calf to Camp. 1 picked the calf up, threw him over my ghmllder and carried him into the camp. The cowboys all gathered around, offering many forms of advice. We had no condensed milk. “Walt a minute,” one of the cow- boys suggested. “Come with me.” So we went out through the herd at night until we found a cow. ‘We m™ped her and carried her to the camp. There we tied her legs, everybody taking a hand, and made her let the calf have his T m“m%!ext day we put the calf in A ck wagon and carried it all day. 3’ emllzc ; caught another cow and | May wen?lihmlxh the forcible feeding. By this time every roughneck cowboy was | Hobl a foster wetnurse for that calf. I never why, but that calf’s name got_to be “Sitting Bull.” Never a night came but the cowboys would inquire about the wel- feeding. Some days we would let Sitting walk until tired, and would then in the chuck wagon. Ran Out of Milk Cows. Bull take ething | f1)_time o E Egggg £y molass>s and that he was all ed out. By this time we tried to him go with the herd. But there was nothing doing. Wherever the chuck n went Sitting Bull followed, his fiesd right against the tailboard. ‘When & herd:is bedded down for the the chuck wagon goes takes up a position ybe five miles to be for ;‘r‘au;:t as the herd is started aj 5 Calf Deserts the Herd. Now might think that Sitt Bull would mt to associate with his kind: might rever: to type. Not so. He would very calmly walk right through that immense herd, no matter how compli- fated or lengthy the move, and follow ‘hat chnek wagon right to the moment 3 5 n the camp fire was t he would stand in the edge of the ight circle until some one had opened a tan of molasses. Upon our arrival in Montana we Sitting Bull until he was a good little bull. He would never go with the herd. So with great care e 8 el & good M lasses eal a 5 'mmu after we had shipped fo Kansas City we recelved reports that Sitting Bull was a good calf, ex- pept that he would follow wagons. When I went back to Henrletta I was elected town marshal. That was a nighty interesting job, but not altogether pne that brought in great wealth. The marshals were not paid salaries, but had jo depend upon fees for their livelihood. We got $2.50 for each arrest. Business, haturally, was pretty good on Saturday | pights. Don't get the impression, though, that we arrested men just for the fun of it; that we could take advantage of & man being in his cups just to get B fee. When you arrested a man in jnose days he understood that you meant §t. We understood it, too. The greater part of my fees came from impounding stray hogs. We had p law that when a man’s hogs were ut in pound he had to pay $1 each o have them released. That fine went me. I had a valued assistant in a lad amed J. Fred Eppler, later a business nza.n in Philadelphia. At that time he was a telegraph messenger boy. He had # keen eye for hogs. Every time he lo- rated a stray one and penned it up I would allow him a 15-cent commission —-sometimes a quarter.

Fred saw a quarter or himself. When he returned to his job that tternoon the sow had given birth to 14 igs. Here was a bonanza. Each pi Rlsc would bring in a dollar. Eppler got the sow and pigs locked fup and we began to look around to Eomy the owner. While doing so, heriff Cooper Wright came in my fnarshal’s office. “Tex,” he said in that drawl, so feared by criminals, “what in the devil do you Eink you are doing? That boy tells e he's got my old sow in pound.” “She’s got 14 pigs by now,” I in- Jormed him, S ig mrvlson Spots in Rickard’s DOPE ON RACES IN VARIOUS DUCKPIN LEAGUES on Sheriff’s Sow That Litter of Pi 5. | “What!

FTER blowing four spare breaks in a row, and taking a choice razzing from the Kid, the Old Timer proceeded to hang up five marks in the next six boxes and breezed in with plenty to spare. “Come on and show something!” he urged the Kid. “I'm just beginning to get warmed up. I feel like a 2-year- old.” “Two-year-old what,” asked the Kid. “Horse or egg?” “Aw, don’t get sore,” pleaded the Old Timer. “I'm just urging you on to bet- ter work.

Whenever my team bowled I had to shoot at anchor for the other team, too, in order to balance things.

Charley Hughes started off with a 118 game, rolled 134 in his second and finished up with 142, making the total 394, and setting up a new high set. ‘Waugh, with Price rolling a 138 game and 364 set and Bridges getting a 133 game, took three from Second Baptist by forfeit. Douglas No. 2 took two games from Ingram No. 1, with Mack Snellings rolling 342, while Stephenson’s 128 game was the best for the losers. Second Baptist Mission stepped out and won a couple from Centennial No. 1, and Fifth Baptist nosed Centennial No. 2 out of two games. Coming down to the regular schedule, the most important match of the week was the one between Douglas No. 1, the leaders, and Ninth No. 1. Douglas took all three from the Ninth boys, with French doing the most effective work with a 138 game and 341 set. Lilley also helped in the last with a 135 game. Another good match was the one be- tween Keller and Waugh, and was won by the former with two wins. In this contest Harry Mertz of Keller did the best shooting of the week. His 153 game was the highest, and his 381 set ‘was way above any other bowler’s mark. Murray, a teammate, had the next best set of the week with 344. The best work for Waugh was done by W. Griest, rolling a 138 game, with Bridges next with a 127 game. Stork of Gorsuch led his team in two wins over Douglas No. 2 with a 331 set, while Capt. Refsinger’s 125 _game was the best for the Douglas five. Brown of Second Baptist Mission rolled a 325 set for high in the match in which his team lost two to Second Baptist.

But 20 teams will be entered and in- dications are that that number will be enlisted before Saturday night. Ten teams have already affiliated. Bowlers from any section of the city may enter. George L. Isemann, secretary of the National Duckpin Bowling Congress, expects at least 100 teams from Wash- ington to compete in the second annual tournament at Richmond, starting March 11. The two first teams to enter the tourney are from this city. G. L. Schmidt, president of Federal League and organizer of War Depart- ment League, has been named chairman of the reception committee for Washing- ton bowlers. Arville L. Ebersole, secre- tary of the Washington City Duckpin Association, has been named chairman of the tournament committee, which will include Lonnie Krauss, Coliseum manager, and Wesley Miltner. Chris Graham, chairman of the re- ception committee for Baltimore bowl- ers, has arranged to charter a boat to carry the Monumental City man and woman bowlers to Richmond. The boat will leave Baltimore March 22, and 16 teams have entered to compete the fol- A jazz band and enter- tainment will feature the boat trip. After dogging the sf of the Uni- versity Park team in nce Georges County Women’s Association duckpin race, Co-eds dropped three to the 1927 champions, breaking the tie and shov- ing :he former team three games in ront. This is a race of youth against vet- erans. The University Park team has monopolized the women’s honors in Prince Georges County circles for the past several Lzm and appear destined to repeat this season, but tae Co-eds are extending them to the limit. What about the Gulli-Mischou vs. “Bradt-Frere match?"” some of the alley fans are asking. These fair stars are likely to clash in a doubles match in the near future. John S. Blick is ready to back the Arcadia stars, Gulli and Mischou, and Bill Wood is_confident that his Meyer Davis stars, Bradt and Frere, are just about the classiest women's doubles team in these parts. ‘This match promises to be one of the most popular proposed in sea- sons. Gulll and Mischou are the class of Ladies’ District Doubles League. Bradt recently set a District five-game set mark with a 608 total. and Frere holds three indjvidual records in Ladies' District League, Hook Shot Now Figures in Attack . BY SOL METZGER. How times have changed! Only a few years back and the hook shot for a basket in the court game was an act of last resort, a desperate chance when all else failed. Today this same shot is one of the staples of basket ball attack. Watch George ‘Veenker’s Wolverines in the Big Ten race year and see for yourself. In their floor plays they will build the attack around a tall forward who beats i% down the middle of the court, then cuts back, takes a pass from a teammate and shoots. The cut-back is used to free this tall man from his immediate op- ponent, supposedly leading him to the basket. Natursily this opponent turns and rushes after him. When the opponent threatens a one-hand chest shot is out of the question. pon 's er uses a one-hand hook shot, the shot here- with illustrated, as such a shot L LT and is as s not the basket.

He then scored 12 straight strikes, which, with the handicap, gave him a super-perfeet count of 320, { LANE TOPS GUNNERS | AT WASHINGTON CLUB L. L. Lane topped the field in the regular weekly Washington Gun Club shoot yesterday at the Benning traps. He registered 24 and 25 for 49 out of 50.

Robert Welsh and Walter Wilson won legs on the Boyer Motor Co. trophy in the two contests held after the 50- target race. Each scored a 24, Welsh taking the first event, while Wilson was the leader in the second. F. P. Willlams won the doubles with 23 out of 24.

He said at the banquet: “The situation which was created by back began to be painful because it wanted to come back or not. There ‘was never any question of that.

OUISVILLE, Ky, January 12— The Kentucky Derby this year will be run May 18, the second Saturday of the meeting at Churchill Downs.

The Derby this year, the fifty-fourth running of this turf classic, appears to be one of the most open races in the long history of this event, it is said. Although several of last year's 2-year- olds were of unusual caliber, there re- mained at the close of the season a wide_difference of opinion as to which should be acclaimed champion. This lack of a definite line on the juveniles is due in part to the fact that several turf stars retired before the racing year ended. Money-winning laurels among these Derby aspirants fall to High Strung, owned by Marshall Field. with more than $100,000 to his credit. His vic- tory in the Futurity at Belmont Park alone netted him $37,000. Other big money winners in the list include Jack High, in the stable of G. D.
