How Stuffy Mclnnis looks as third baseman. Stuffy Mclnnij is startling the American lcapue fans this year by playing: third base with a first baseman's mitten, recalling the old days when mitten3 were a vopue in baseball. Shifted from first base to the fsr side of the diamond because the Red Sox infield was pretty well broken up, Stuffy found that he could not handle the linger plove with the same ease and sureness that used to mark his work around the initial corner when he wore a mitten, so he decided to return to his old love.

AN OPEN LETTER

To Jess Willard and Fred Fulton: You big stiffs, you've got this country all wrong! . The fighting is in France! Do you suppose the people in thfs country, when their boys are dying in Flanders and France, are going to give up from $5 to $25 a head to see two brutes like you fight each other. The U. S. needs just such fighters as you in the trenches and needs them badly but you don't seem to care. All you want is easy money. We predict that the day will never come when you will bo permitted to fight anywhere.

Ed went down and took the count cf nine. When he got up he was a greatly surprised man, but he fought back gamely. It was one of those slugging matches that had the fans in wild excitement throughout. Eddie's ability as a boxer enabled htm to overcome the knockdown his opponent scored and he Just did overcome the lead. They stood toe and toe at ail stages and whaled away. Cleverness Saved Eddie.

Phil broke through now and then and when he hit Fddla felt the weight of the punches. It was Eddie's ring generalship nni his cleverness that saved hi:n from defeat. Ills left scored repeatedly and while Harrison showed plenty of nggressi eness. Eddie scored the cleaner punches. Eddie knew he was In a fight and Harrison had much to be proud of. He was a complete surprise to the critics, for he showed he can take a punch and give one as well. Harrison outweighed his opponent Ave pounds, McGoorty tipping the beam at 160 pounds. They agreed on catchweights. Eddie was too fast and clever in the first round for Harrison and had the ghetto lad bewildered. Eddie won the Tound. Harrison not landing a blow In the three minutes.
