REFORMERS ARE AFTER BOXING GAME— _ “DOC” SPEIDEL IS THE HANDBALL CHAMPION ‘THIS SHOWS HOW CHARLIE WHITE, LIGHTWEIGHT, PUTS ACROSS THAT FAMOUS LEFT WING OF HIS BY LEFT HOOK ‘That 2 good left hook and a right 8 will do more toward getting the money than a college education has been demonstrated by Charlie White, the Chicago lightweight. Charlie's left hook ts one of the marvels of the pugilistic ago, and the money this apparently fratl Ind) has made with tt is cause for fur ther wonderment. White doesn’t know anything about calculus or higher mathematics, except where | gato receipts are concerned, but he | | surely does know how to time his| punches to set his opponents on the for the ten count, This youngster has developed the famous left hook to a state not far short of perfection, and it has car ried him from the ranks of the me diocre up to creditable showings against two champlons—Willie Ritchie and Freddie Welsh. Now that he possesses a power. ful left, he has set out to develop his right, and in his last few knock- outs of opponenta of varied caliber he has given the dexter mitt « rest and accomplished his purpose with his right. Five or six years ago, White was a thin little kid around O’Connell’s gym, in Chicago, old | Bill O'Connell, who ran the place,| saw possibilities in him, But!

Smith had things his own way from the first gong and made Carsey look like the rankest amateur, rocking his head at will and having him all but out in the first two rounds.

What a splendid looking man he is, I don’t blame Kitty Malram for forgetting Bill Tenney when she saw her future husband, for Herbert is a much better looking man and besides he gives you such a feeling of his goodness. Query: nearer model husbands ordinary men? Herbert came to see me to tell me how worrlfed he was about Kitty. “You see, Margie,” he satd, “Kitty does seem to be interest- ed in my work at all, and before we were married she was very much interested in It.” “Before you were married, how many evenings a week did you spend with Kitty?” “At the last we were together every evening.” “What did you talk about?” Herbert thought a minute. can't tell," he answered honestly. “Mostly I guess about bow happy we would be when we were to- gether all the time.” “What do you talk about now?” Herbert began to laugh and that was a good sign to me. It showed me he was still a real man and not just a reformer “Margie, you talk Ike the judge at the court of domestic re- lations.” “Well, that’s a new one, I've been told I talk Ike a school teach- or, a silly woman, a selfish chit, a dear and many other things, but this is the first time I have been in any way compared to an august judge of masculine sex, But nev- erth ss I wish you would tell me what you and Kitty talk about now, What did you talk about last night?” “We didn't talk. I went over to the Associated Charities to see about relief for a poor mother with three children.” “A splendid thing to do, but what was Kitty doing?” Do good men make any than just when) fi otifessions of a Wife never succeed with it. The process of shortening took several years. First tt came down to 16 and 12 inches, then decreased nally to where it now is—six| inches. Charlie doesn’t start the! hook until his foe's jaw is only six) inches away from the mitt, This sures accuracy and gives just as much of a wallop as the old long- distance punch | But, having perfected and made) famous the punch, White found a new disadv@mtage. His opponents knew what he had before he step-| ped into the ring, and Charlie found the jaw target painfully padded with boxing gloves when his wallop) came across. So he started hook- ing for the body, and after a few! smashes the other fellow usually | dropped his mitts to guard his stom-| | and 6 Carsey was lighter. Willie Beecher, lightweight, knocked out Tim O'Neill of Holy-| oke, Mass, in the first round. EX-CHAMP DIES ELIZABETH, After a brief two pounds L N. J, Dee, 29.— filness Leonard E. Ware, New York broker and for mer tennis champion, died here last night of pneumonia. While an undergrad at Harvard, Ware won the national doubles title with G. P. Sheldon, jr., the intercollegiate doubles championship with M. D. Whitman and the intercollegiate singles champtonship. “Why—why—lI guess she was do- ing her housework. She was in bed when I came home. Margie, you are not that I neglect my wife, never looked at another woman than her. I never smoke, drink or play cards—my whole life is given to good works and to my home.” “What will It in a man if he reforms the whole world and loses his wife? “I have been thinking {ft is a good thing for you men that wom- en cannot name ‘business’ as co- respondents in their pleas for di- vorce. I have never known a wom. an who had more attegtion from men than your wife when she was Kitty Malram and because you are neglecting her for your ‘good work’ does not make that neglect any easier to bear, Kitty is a pretty woman, She loves gayety, and, my Herbert, she knows that even now there are those who would be glad to shower flowers and fragrance and good times on her, It is not only the materially poor woman who wants in this world. Kitty wants you; she wants joy and laughter and happiness, Life {s serious enough at best, don't make it more so.” Then I laughed, for the idea of me lectur- ing a highbrow reformer like Her- bert Spencer was funny, But, you.see, little book, I had had a letter from Kitty only that morning in which she had remark ed that Herbert was awfully busy with his poor people and tnquired particularly about Bill Tenney, (To Be Continued Tomorrow.)
