Weiss has made no overtures whatsoever to the for- mer big league star, and fails to un- derstand from what source the story emanated. Bender and Weiss are y good friends, and have been in Cuch other’s company in Philadelphia sev- eral times, but these associations have n. purely personal ones, and the New Haven man has never mentioned a contract for the coming season to ‘Bender.

Ben- cision of Dan Murphy LEONARD’S ::ojms)o I::O;J::TYEM Even in these days when the value of a dollar is woefully small, $200,000 is a whole lot of money. But that is what Monsieur Benjamin Reonard, lightweight champion of the world, earned with his versatile fists during the year. Leonard was the most 3c- tive of all the boxers, large or small, in this fertile land. He plied his trade with a diligence and vigor never displayed before by a champion in any class. He realized that the reign of a champion is not long at most and that a title holder has to “get it while the getting is good.” Leonard engaged in 25 bouts dur- ing the year, an average of a bout almost every two weeks. This is ex- clusive of the several benefit bouts ke boxéd. Accordi®z to his manager, Billy Gibson, the total gate receipts for these bouts amounted to approxi- maetly $500,000. If Leonard drew down $200,000 as his share then he averaged about 40 per cent, of the gate in each bout in which he took part. To abstract a total of a half million dol- the gate receipts for each bout averaged $20,000 and Leonard received an average of $8,000 for every time he entered the ring to do battle. In eigly of Leonard’s principal bouts the gates totaled $210500, an o of $25.187.5 The remaining 16 bout: n average of $L hig- gest bouts, his opponents, where they were held and the gate receipts fol- Tow: Receipts _ Opponent Place $53.000—Willie Ritchie .......

In distance fly cast- ing with a four and threc-quarter’ ounce rod C. J. McCarthy averaged 112 2-3 feet. C. E. Lingenfelter made a new record for half-ounce distance bait with the longest single cast of 274 feet. These were the only new records made during the season. Some of the records have with- stood the onslaught of many years. For instance, the record made by H. W. Hawes of New York in switch fly casting in 1887 ,still stands on the booksy It is interesting to study the world's casting records.up to date compiled by the National Asso- ciation of Scientific Angling Clubs.

In the National League only one pitcher, Lee Meadows, partici- pated in 40 games, but in the rival league no Tess than eight slabsters least( for box scores and two of the eight worked in forty- four games, | Those who performed often in the American league were Shaw of the Senators, who pitched games; ‘Russell of the Yankees and later of the Red Sox, who, like Shaw. worked in forty-four battles; Coveleskie of Cleveland, forty-three games; Kinney of Philadelphia, for. ty-three; Williams of the White Sox | Shawkey of the Yankees, each| forty-one games; Cicotte ofthe ‘White Sox and Sothoron of thé Browns. who each broke into forty contests. { Although Shaw and Russell appear- | ed in more games than any other hurler, neither was the most indus- | trious pitcher in the league. The real | iron man of the circuit was Eddie Ci- | cotte, who in his forty games pitched 2 total of 307 frames. Shaw hurled 298 innings and Russell 211. The same is true in the National League. Mead- | ows pitched in twenty-two games as a member of the Cardinals’ pitching taff, and when he went to Philadel- phia’ appeared in eighteen games be- fore the season closed. In these bat- tles he hurled 241 innings, but sever- al pitchers who did not take part lnl as many games as he did pitched more frames. Jim Vaughn of the | Cubs took part in thirt ht con- | tests and pitched more frames than any other National leazuer. He was| on the slab for 307 rounds, the same number pitched by the American League's iron man of the year. {na’dentally Cicotte and Vaughn the overtime performers in their re- | spective leagues, each are rated sec-| . The Cub’s soutbpaw. | however, has an edge on the star of the White Sox in the number of earn- ed runs allowed a nine inning con-| test. Vaughn held the opposition | down to 1.79 tallies a game and Ci- | cotte was found for 1.82 runs to a contest. Vaughn won 21 games and wag charged with 14 defeats, and in the 307 rounds he pitched he was found for atotal of 264 ba hits. He struck out 141 batters and lked 62. Cicotte while he pitched, was found for 256 hits, struck out 110 men and passed 49. Sixty-one runs were earned off the member of the Cubs and 62 carneq tallies were recorded off Ci- cotte’s piching.

One of the most important details miss- ing from the American league rec- ords is the number of games won and lost by the pitchers. Walter | Johnson is the leader, but the fans do not know how many victories he | turned in during the season nor how | many times he was defeated. Ci- cotte and Williams were the main- | stays of the White Sox staff, but the number of Chicago victories that | pair accounted for is not known.! Jesse Barnes wag the only pitcher in the National League to turn in 25 winning efforts last season. Who in, the American League equalled his feat? Besides rating the pitcher accord- ing to the number. of earned runs scored against him, the National League averages show how he stands ! according to .the number of games won and lost. The records also in- clude the number of.complete games pitched and the number of contes finished by each hurler.
