Tommy Ryan Declares He's! Ready to Re-enter Ring and | Would Like to Meet Les Darcy. | comme I VT Cs Ra | TERDAY afternoon — New Year's Day—my telephone rang. There was a rumbling and a clattering over the wire and at last I caught a human voice: “Bob—is this you, Bob?” “Tt 1s,” said 1. I began to recognize Tommy’s voice. “I just called you up to ask your opinion about something. Do you think I could Ick this fellow Darcy?” “Oh—hum—why, sure.” “Well, 1 think I'll try it.” “You'll what?” “Try it—fight him, you know. I want to fight a couple of other good men first for a tryout and then tackle Da: I think I could beat him, Don't you think 80?” “Weill, Tommy, there was a time when you might have done it without any trouble, comparing your records, But haven't you been out of the ring for a long while? Aren't you out forty-six? Other fellows have tried to come back, you know"—— “I know,” sald Tommy. “But this is DIFFERENT. I retired undefeated and I've had a gymnasium right along and have kept in good shape. When this fellow Darcy came over I gave myself a couple of good tryouts with pretty good men and I'm there, I fee! pretty good, Bob, and you know—if I made good with somebody else first" —— “I'd like to see you when you try out, Tommy,” said I. “All right,” said Tommy. “You'll see me. Happy ‘New Year.” fib aha HERE surely was a time when Tommy Ryan probably would have taken a youn Ake Darcy into camp, no matter how rugged Darcy \s. Ryan could outslug the sluggers and outbox the boxers. He had a remarkable record of fights won with knockouts. His longest fight was seventy-six rounds-—and that was early in his career. Tommy was born in 1870, began fighting in 1886, and retired in 1907, after twenty- one years in the ring, undefeated milddleweight champion of the world and still invincible. In all his fighting career Ryan was knocked out only once—and that time when Kid McCoy tricked him and ight him out of condition, McCoy the only fight- er he ever met who “had it on him,” and McCoy was taller and heavier, Ryon never weighed over 154 pounds when he was middleweight champion. In fact his usual fighting weight in his important matches was from 146 to 148 pounds, Hits | ight was in 1891, when he knocke t Danny Needham in seventy-six rounds, A Tommy Ryan as Tommy was about fourteen or fifteen years ago, when he was knocking out all the best middieweights in the country, win- (‘THE EVENING WORLD, TUESDAY, JANUARY 2, 191 7.

Suggestions for restoring the balance in baseball, which, he contends, has become lost] through the advantages enjoyed by the defensive side of the game, were advanced to-day by President Percy D. Haughton of the Boston National League club. Haughton brought up the subject at the recent meeting of the National League, which voted to have a rules committse meet with a similar body from the American League to consider reviaion. “Tho natural ingenuity of the Am- erican sportsman is forever destroy- Ing the balance between defense and attack in games,” sald Haughton, “In baseball the defenders have had the upperhand for years.
