LONDON, July 7. "I know I canfight and I know I can win." WillieSitchie, lightweight champion.

"All that I know is that I have agood chance to capture the world'slightweight title and that's enoughfor me." Freddy Welsh.

This was the word today from thetwo who tonight battle for the light-Weig- ht

championship of the world. Thetwo fighters look fit. London expectsthe best "four-flsted- " fight that has beenStaged here for years. The lightweightsWill face probably the classiest audiencela the history of the ring.

Big boxing matches In England alwayspartake mors or less of the nature ofsociety functions. Full dress Is usuallyworn by occupants of the boxes, andthe higher priced ringside seats, and anumber of women usually attend. Buttonight's fistic entertainment will be deluxe, not to say recherche.

Manager C. B. Cochran, manager ofthe Olympia, where the contest will

e staged, said today 'that fully SOper cent of the tickets of whichmore than 9.000 have already beendisposed of have been purchased byw omen. He feels safe in estimating;that probably 20 jer cent of theAudience will be of the gentler sex.One women's club made a reservationor a block of seats.Among the men spectators will be

There is nothing in the Eastamong Philadelphia, Boston, andBrooklyn to beat the Giants out of apennant. In 'the West neither Cin-

cinnati nor St. Louis have a spec-

ter's chance. If the trick is to beturned only Chicaga and Pittsburghcan do it. And ths next two orthree weeks will tell a big part ofthe story. If Pittsburgh and Chi-

cago are unable to repel New Yorken her present invasion theOdds will ne sGfongly agamsl either

The English Stroke.Exra. Cornell and others have come

forward with a terrific fusillade at ourCoatrib EU Tale for suggesting thatthe English stroke beat Harvard andIsraeli. And there has been, in addi-tion to this, a loud hurrah over the victory of the American stroke at Henley.But along this line we agree mostLeartily with Herbert Reed (Right"3'ing), who writes us in regard to thesuperiority of one stroke over another:

"No Such AnimaL' '"Apropos of the communication of

131 Tale to the effect that the 'Englishstroke' beat Harvard and Cornell,"comments Bert, "permit me to remarkjhat he has not seen a crew row theEnglish stroke since those Tale eightshatwere badly beaten under the coach-

ing of Harcourt Gold. Again., there isno English stroke. Until very recentlythere was an English university stroke.5ut now Oxford and Cambridge fcavH

freer drifting apart. After the victoryof the Belgians at Henley, CambridgeCniversity made radical changes In theftroke of the Light Blues, and it wasrt stroke vastly different from the onetaught by Gold or NIckalls that beatjaarvard from Putney to Mortlake onthe Thames.

To the Crews."Cheer-o!"- - as the English say." con-

tinues Bert, "for the winning coaches,But give the men In the boat a littlecredit. America won at Henley, but Ishould not think of hailing it as a vic-tory of 'the American stroke' over 'theEnglish stroke.' Rather it was a vic-tory of American oarsmen over Eng-lish oarsmen."

All of which is plain common sense,established in an epoch where sanity IstX a premium.

America's victory at Henley was evenmore of an upset than England's con-quest in polo. It was another strangeincident in a year of mysteries and sud-den shocks. And incidentally, it liftedi"he Eagle's count to two against threefor the Lion In the international jubilee.

Sticking Around.i'et nil the glory of the old-tim- e bri-

gade belongs to Wagner, Lajolc. irath-ewso- n,

Another Golf Invasion.We haven't heard yet what plans

American golfers are making for an-other English Invasion next year, butwe sincerely trust the United Statesof America isn't going to give up thefight.

"England will probably make no in-vasion of says & well-know- n

That all will get a good run for theirmoney (the tickets run from 11.25 to$50) Is indicated by the attitude of thetwo principals. urantea tnat tneyoung American title holder has beensidestepping Welsh in the past, heappears lit and eager today, and theBritisher is equally prepared. Botharrived from America barely threeweeks ago.

In his eagerness to make the matchwith JtUtchie, Welsh surrendered everydisputed point, and permits the Ameri-can to walk away with J25.000, win orlose. In fact, the arrangements aresuch that Welsh won't know until afterthe fight is over whether he is toget anything.

Arrival of several thousand SouthWales miners, weighted t down withcoin, boosted the odds this afternoonto 10 to 9 In the Britisher's favor.

Welsh spent the night at Cardiff, andarrived at Paddlngton early In the aft-ernoon, going directly to the Olympia,where the two fighters weighed in.Ritchie was secluded in a private resi-dence near the arena to avoid enthusi-astic fellow-America-

Jinvasion would lead one to believe. Forit Is also well enough to rememberthat Hilton, on his last visit, was brat-e- n

in his first match at Chicago, andthat neither Vardon nor Ray were ableto take back the chief American trophy.We have a hunch that if England caresto send aver eight or ten of her bestgoners, they will meet all the compe-tition they care to face against Trav-er- s.

If this upset business continues to de-velop at any greater length, we maychallenge Vardon for the championshipof the world. Apparently tho onlypeople able to win this season are thosewithout a look-I- n before the conflictstarts.

What Lads SayAbout Battle

TonightBy WILLIE RITCHIE,

Lightweight Champion of the World.LONDON'. July 7. I am not

worrying at all about Welsh's twenty-t-

wo successive victories in thepast fifteen months. If any of mygood but mistaken friends aro bet-ting on the form I showed two yearsugo when Wclsn beat me, I wouldadvise them to wipe off the slateand make a new book. I was a merekid when I met Welsh and I wasplum scared.

But they say he's Improved a lotsince then. Well, so have I. More-over. I'm fighting now to hold thechampionship. I am perfectly will-ing to admit that he is a good man,and that my victory will not be aneasy one by any means.

As to my condition it was neverbetter. I was In fairly .food formbefore "eaving America; I did somelight training coming over, and tendays' hard work at Brighton havepnt me on edge. Of course, defeatis bound to come to all championsin time, but I am confident I won'tget mine tonight.

By FREDDIE WELSH,Lightweight Champion of England.

I think I can- - fight and I thinkI shall win. My hope of victory isnot based on the fact that I onesbeat Ritchie. I know Ritchie hascome on a lot since then. He hasa real nunch and he's game. As formyself, I, haven't gone back any.I may be a bit slower than I wassome years ago, but I have gainedin general ring experience andpunching power.

It seems too good to be true thatafter chasing Ritchie all over Amer-ica. I am finally to have a crack athim. I conceded everything. I toldRitchie he could have everything insight so lone as he would agree toclimb through the ropes. He gets0 per cent of the gross gate re-

ceipts, with a guarantee of 125,000and I get B0 per cent of what's leftafter hisvshare and expenses are de-ducted. But I was satisfied to meethim even if I get nothing.

I am not superstitious as a rule,but there are three omens 'thatmake me feel comfortable. My firstbacker any my first trainer will beat the ringside men I haven't seenfor years. Then, the day after byarrival on this side. I received acable from my wife in California,announcing the debut in this worldof Miss Elizabeth Welsh.

COOL OF EVENING

FINDS CREWS OUT

But One Month Remains forFinal Training of Oarsmen

of Washington Clubs.

By KIRK C. MILLER.With exactly one month separating

the present from the time for the Na-tional Regatta at Philadelphia, August8, some of the most strenuous work ofthe season in Washington's rowingcolony will be seen alun,r the upper andlower courses of the Potomac duringthe intervening time. Both of the localclubs, the Potomacs and Analostans,are entered In the National Regatta,and it will be tho first- - time this sea-son that those crews will be seen Inthe same race.

Accordingly, in the cool of the even-ings, when Jim Rice and Clarence He-co- x

get their respective proteges outupon the water, the occupants of theseveral boats will have their work laidout for them, and when the time trialsbegin, later on in the process of train-ing, each separate boat will be ex-pected to reveal the fruits of the ardentwork which is planned for them.

Prefacing the most serious work ofthe rowing season, that of applyingthe finishing touches to the business oftraining, tho Potomac Boat Club, withit 200 members including officers, oars-men, coach and their friends, are

today their annual excursiondown the Potomac river. For the firsttime in months, the seep artists aretoday "off" training, but it is only fora brief twent-fo- ur hours that theymay partake of ice cream, candies andother sueets, and tomorrow they willagain be found living upon the mostnutritious diet and obervlng the strict-est of sleeping hours.

Coach James Rice of Columbia, whocame yesterday to take charge of thecrews at Potomac, is among the "merry-makers down the river today and istaking advantage of the opportunity toDecome acquainted nun nis new cnarges.

JUMPING PLAYERS AREENEMIES TO BASEBALL

National Pastime Depends on

Loyalty and Sentiment for

Its Success as Sport.

CINCINNATI, July 7. Ball playerswho Jump their contracts or threatento Jump them are the greatest enemiesof the national game and of all otherplayers. Scarcely any of the playersrealize this fact, but it is the truth,and every careful observer In the coun-try knows It to be so. Baseball is asport which depends for its successon local sentiment "find loyalty of thefans fur one side or the other.

While the game Is a splendid spec-

tacle in itself, the fact remains Hutthe element of contest and tne 'tcsire oithe fans to havo their team win is themost Important thing about it from adrawing standpoint. The fans like tothink of their favorites as heroes, whoare out there trying their best to bringhome the victory.

Hero-worshi- p, however, falters beforethe money-grabbin- g and contract-breakin- g

greed inspired -- in certain athletesby the Federal League agents. xneseason Sh nearly ono-ha-lf over and theReds have played In every city in theNational Leaue, and two and threetimes In some of them. The spirit ofthe fans is waning all over the

In four games at Chicago last week.in Deauuiui weainer ,ana wim uie iwoteams fighting for second place and theCubs with an excellent chance to over;haul the Giants for the pennant, therewas not a tingle crowd of over 3.000.

Last year that series would havedrawn 8,000 or 10,000 every day, ornearly as many in one day as it drewin four days this year. The reason issimple. The fans, surfeited with base-ball and disgusted over the longstories contract-Jumpin- g, for demands for extravagant salaries, areJust staying away. They have lostinterest in the great sport. Theycannot go out and enthuse over aplayer who has already proclaimedthat he will Jump his signed contractnext day and desert his club if thopposition will give him so manythousand dollars in cash. No one canroot hard for a player that kind.There is a stain and a doubt whichcauses the honest bugs to Iobo theirenthusiasm.

The players are impressing it forci-bly upon the minds of the fans thatthey are in the game solely for themoney they can get, that they haveno loyalty or, sometimes, not evencommon honesty, ana mat mey wingo where the coin lies thickest, nomatter how many contracts they mayhave to break to get there. Thls Iswhat is hurting tho national sport,and will eventually kill it, if con-tinued much longer.

Unfortunately ball players have so farbeen unable to grasp ths basi fact ofthe present situation. Dazzled b thopromise of largo sums of money andimpressed bv the legal verbiage of Fed-eral npents "hired to bribe star athletesto Jump, they fall for the stuf that isruining the game as a great sporc-t- he

greatest of them all. The plavers arethe cnl ones wno do not see this con-dition.

It is a common thing to hear a play-er nay, as if he was getting r.ff quitea brilliant remark. "I'm in tne amefor all tho money I can get out of it.I will have only a limited number fyears to play ball, and I am untitledto get all I can while my ability holddout. They tell me these contracu won'thold in the courts, so I don't considermvself bound by them. Show me thecom, and I will Jump from here toKamchatka."

Sentiments like these are comor. evenamong the better class of athlete, andare usually warmly applauded by theathletic listeners. It is this thoughtlessstuff that is putting the ganio bacKE.'idir. Very few players have any realrespect for a contract, so far aj theare concerned. Of course, they expectthe club to live up to it in nil itrt de-

tails and pay them their salary regu-larly, without fail, even if they falldown painfully in what was expoctedof them, and do not begin to earn thefat nams that are handed to themtwice cery month.

As to their own obligations, they feelfree to Jump thx-- if they can get ahigher offer from an outlaw league.This is ths spirit of unfairness whichthe fens are beginning to find out. andwhich Is taking awy the pre3t!go ofthe players.

This no scare-hea- d stuff, but isabsolutely true. The opinion expressed

forcibly by this railroad man prevalent among the more Intelligent rootersin every city In both big leagues. Thegreed"f the ball players Is forcing thebetter element of the patronage out ofthe parks. Consequently the Reds arenow playing to 2.500 people Instead ofto 10,000.

The Feds, whose policy of inducingplayers to break their contracts hascaused this Irreparable Injury to thegood name of the national sport, aroplaying to one or two hundred a dayin the majority of their cities.
