City Series® ° a, Ie re vat hp Ai e C e re U ik zoe fp That Ole Anderson, a big green kid from the ever- greens of Tacoma, could be dug out of obscurity and shade Willie Meehan, on the trail of Jack Dempsey’s title, should give Willie food for thought. More than one fan at the ringside last night got a big giggle out of the thought of Meehan fighting Dempsey over a long route. Meehan is fast and his blows make a lot of noise, but after the fight Anderson said that Meehan’s blows didn’t hurt him at all. How Meehan ever won from Dempsey in those two four-round fights is a riddle to me. Jack must have felt sorry for Willie be- cause Meehan was so short and fat or else it must have been a pair of those San Francisco decisions after all. One thing is certain and that is Meehan would have been given the verdict if last night’s fight had been staged in the California metropolis. Just why Seattle referees insist upon deliver- ing orations every time a squabble comes up is another local ring mystery. Last night Jerry Mec- Carthy, who refereed well enough, had a spasm of oratorical ambition before the final bout, when he refused at first to work with judges, and tried to address the fans. They gave him the raspberry, as expected. The sooner Seattle referees let the an- nouncers do the talking and tend to the refereeing business, the better it will be for everybody con- cerned. High school football will be under way soon. Where the games are to be staged is a puzzle as the University of Washington field is barred to inter- scholastic sports and the league ball field can't be used until after October 4. Perhaps Liberty park may be obtained, but it’s far from a good gridiron field. Some day perhaps Seattle, like every other city of its size in the country, will have a regular athletic field where high school games can be staged, but until then we will have to struggle along with fields like Liberty park. Many Seattle golfers who patronize the Jeffer- son park links are complaining of the artificial lake on the 13th fairway. The lake was put in with a clay bottom and balls driven into the water are lost for keeps. Golf balls aren't the cheapest things in the world at the present time. Several of the golfers who have complained offer the suggestion that the lake be drained and a cement bottom put in, giving the caddies a chance to recover balls driven into it.
