RICHMOND PEIIIISY 'DEFEATS BRADFORD; NINE WINS PRAISE
! ' BRADFORD, Ohio, June 16. Playling fin ball behind Flaherty's good
pitching, the Richmond divisional Pennsy team defeated Bradford here Thursday afternoon by the score of '4 to 3. Neither pitcher -was hit hard 'during the contest. Porter, of Bradford, held FIchmond to six hits, while his team-mates hit Flaherty for seven safeties. The Richmond team looked unusu?Jly good in this contest, only one error being committed during the nine Innings. The visiting nine didn't look like the same team which was defeatpd at Cincinnati Wednesday, by such a large score. ; Minner, Byrkett and .Garthwait were the hitting stars for the winning Richmond Pennsy, with two hits each. Garthwaite hit for a double at en opportune time, while Minner clouted out hits which enabled his team to score each time, r Byrkett hit for a triple, which meant a score at s. critical time. Bigler was the big man with the tat for the losing Bradford nine, with three safeties out of four times at bat. He played an exceptional game at third base and fielded without an
error. Richmond Scores. The first score of the game came in the Richmond half of the second inning, when a hit, sacrifice hit and a passed ball allowed the visitors to cross the pan for the fifst tally. Three hits and an error on Shellenberger, Bradford first baseman, enabled Richmond to tally three more times in the fourth inning. This ended the scoring by the Richmond nino. Bradford opened in the eighth frame. Porter hit safely, followed by clean bingles by Little and Hughes. An error of Garthwaite, Richmond second baseman, enabled the losers to cross the plate three times. The game was ono of the best played on the Bradford diamond this season, and the best played contest by the Richmond team.

Chips and Slips
Those boys who were voicing their opinions early last spring that all the Yankees had to do to win this year's American league pennant was to change Into their baseball uniforms each day and go through the routine of taking the field, are beginning to
worry. For the St. Louis Browns are traveling close on the heels of this Yanks and threatening the Hugnren every mjnute. Having got aboutwhat he wanted in the way of dough for his coming bout with Lew Tendler, Benny Leonard now wants the world with a fence around it for his bout with Jack Brit-
ton, preceding the Tendler bout. Benny 6ays that he and not Britton Is the attraction in that setto. But It takes two to make a fight and Britton is about the only opponent that would cause fans to pay big money to see Benny in action. So where does Benny get the idea that he can hog the coin. Leonard may be the better fighter, but we like Jack Britton's quiet,' fair and sincere methods of doing business with the promoters and public better than we do Leonard's. The professor, at a previous lec
ture on Milton's "Paradise Lost," had explained the Greek legend of Tantalus to the class. Ha had now come

Fish and Game Officials Seeking Site For Hatchery
(By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, June 16. George N. Mannfeld and George Berg of the fish and game division of the state conservation department, are visiting Lawrence, Orange, Monroe, Greene,
Owen, Clay and Brown counties this week with a view of selecting a site for establishing a fish hatchery. . Chief requisites for a hatchery are an abundance of water, preferably from springs or a spring-fed branch, land not subject to overflow, soil of such character as to retain water but with good drainage, and in a community of good roads, Mr. Mannfeld says.
Br FRAKK G. MKSKH Scandal runs amuck within the boxing game In New York. It Is charged again and again that "sure thing" gamblers have made tremendous cleanups on various fistic bouts during the last year. William A-, Muldoon, chairman of the New York state athletic commission, is conducting a "rigid Investiga
tion." The action ct Muldoon now,
sincere and honest though It may be,
Is highly reminiscent of the fellow
who locked the barn after the horse
was stolen.
It Is most peculiar that Muldoon
and his entire commission have been closing their eyes for nearly a year
to the wide open gambling which has existed within practically every Ne-w
York City arena on fight nights. Any ordinary reasoning power should have convinced them long ago that gambling has no part in honest sport and they should have acted then to crush the octopus before it ensnared
the sport
No man who visited Madison Square Garden during the season just closed
could be ignorant of the fact that
gambling was conducted on a massive
scale within the historic arena. In a room which serves as a sort of bar
room, any stranger could wander in
at any time and get a bet on any bout of the night. There was ever present at least a dozen or more persons who were rather anxious to accept wagers
on the bouts. . Solicited Bets
But the gambling wasn't confined
solely to that room. Even while bouts
were in progress, men would rush around the ringside attempting to solicit bets. They would hawk out
their odds and their offers and attempt to have spectators cover their bets with the same tenacity of purpose that a salesman employs in a "hand-me-down" clothing store.
V hat's true of the Garden was true
in practically every other club within
the Greater City. Gamblers were al
ways present. So was one or another
member or representative of the commission. Those fellows must have known exactly what was going on, unless they wandered aroundJwith blindfolded eyes and ears stuffed to a point where all sounds were clouded from hearing. Yet they stood by and iaid nothing. And, in the end, gambling gripped
and ensnarled the sport. Whether or not decisions have been' "purchased" by the most powerful of gamblers so that they could mulct the "sucker" public is something which Muldoon is now attempting to ascertain. The fact that the commission has repeatedly switched referees and judges, has dropped others, and now is keenly on the alert for anything that seems suspicious, would indicate that it is working on the theory that some of the officials cooperated probably for a compensation with the gambling element. Queer Decisions It is a rather well established fact that through many months some of the most weird decisions possible have been handed down as a result of some of the bouts, especially those within Madison Square Garden. The singular feature is that on all such occasions the winner has been the man
who carried the "smart money" of the big gamblers and that the loser was the fighter who got the play from the "suckers."
It is possible, of course, that Muldoon and his commission, through the summer, may clarify the atmosphere and may bring about 100 per cent fair
and honorable conditions. That would
protect the "sucker" public In the future. But the lack of alertness on the part of the same commission certainly has cost the average ring spectator, who assumed that the game was on the up-and-up, countless thousands of dollars during the indoor season which faded into history with the advent of June.

LEONARD TO TACKLE THREE TOUGH FOES WITHIN 32 DAYS
ILYNN WILL TACKLE
WINCHESTER TEAM
KEARNS SAYS JESS
WOULD GIVE CHAMP BETTER FIGHT NOW
LOS ANGELES. Calif., June 16. Jess Willard would give Jack Dempsey a bettor fight for the world's heavyweight championship boxing title this year than he did three years ago at Toledo in the belier of Jack Kearns, Dempsey's manager, commenting on a virtual defi Willard Issued yesterday. "One of my reasons for thinking so Is that Willard will be in much better condition than when he was defeated," Kearns said. "I saw Jess sev. eral days ago and he already is in pretty fair shape. He will no doubt work hard from now on so as to be in the very pink of condition. "Willard is not going to take on Jack for the purpose of making any money, because he has made plenty of
money In the oil business during the
past year or so. He is simply going into the match to prove that he is a
better man than Dempsey. and abso
lutely thinks he is Jack's master
Of course I think Jack will lick him
again, but I really believe that Wil
lard will make a better showing this
time."
Asked when the match would be
held, Kearns replied that he felt "cer
tain the match would be pulled off next September." He added that Jack
would like one or two opponents in
September, "the other one being Bren-
nan, so you see he will have a busy
time of it in the early fall."
NEW YORK, June 18. A new fighting record is about to be hung up to dry by Bennr Leonard, prince of the royal family of pugilism, who began today to dust off his armor like
a plumed knight In preparation for
justs with three of the toughest op ponentsMn the business within the ex tremely short space of 32 days.
Tex Rickard has worked out two-
thirds of the original design and Floyd
Fitzsimmons has manipulated the other third. Jack Britton, world's welter
weight champion: Lew Tendler, of Philadelphia, and Rocky Kansas, of
Buffalo, are the trio who will fill It.
The three bouts within a month
will give Benny at least a quarter of
a million aoiiars, ana n ne can una the button when be steps into the ring
with Britton he will 6tep out the wet
terwelght champion of the world, the fourth fighting man since Napoleon to
hold two championships.
As Britton will not be down to 13o
pounds, Leonard's lightweight coronet
will not be in danger.
Leonard's summer season will open
June 26 at the New York Velodrome
with Britton in a no-decision bout.
Eight days later he will meet Rocky Kansas at Michigan City, Ind., in an Indepesdence Day battle. And on July 27 he will battle for .the world's lightweight championship in Jersey
City with Tendler, recognized as the
most formidable of th econtenders.
After that he jnay rest for a while.
No modern champion has such a rec
ord.
.Leonard has all to 'win and nothing
to lose with Britton, for whom the opposite is true. Leonard has only
his reputation aud not his title at stake when he meets Kansas, though the Italian may be surprisingly bet
ter, but with Tendler he is taking a
chance.
Only three men have held more
than one title at one time in boxing
history Bob Fitzsimmons, Terry Mc-
Govern and Johnny Buff.
Leonard, who is 26, has fought two
previous no-decision bouts with Britton, who is nearly 38.
Tendlcr is 24 end has been boxing
since 1916, when he was peddling pa
pers In Philadelphia. Both he and
Leonard defeated Kansas, so the Buffalo man is not considered seriously
in the running.
