Ketohel's Deep Thought.
Stanley Ketchel is credited with these
epigrams:
I read the "knocks" through; I throw
away ths "boosts."
It took me flvs years of training to
win the middleweight championship.
Now I'm coming to live ths way .1 want
to.
If a flghtsr hasn't got the punch he
might as well quit ths ring. There's a
lot of science boys eating snowballs this
winter. -t
It Mice that ths man at the top hssrt
any trouble finding friends. I wonder
how they look from the toboggan T ,
There . are always people who . will
spend a lot of time advising a champion,
Why don't they advise the man who
coming up! Ht needs It ,
I know colored fighters., who are
whiter than whits ones.
It's the people who guess at what
do who bother me. J never am bothered
by those who know what I do.
I don't fight because I like it I fight
because I can make mors money at it
than I could by shoveling sand around
the equator and make it a lot quicker.
There probably have been a lot
squars fighters .who turned crooked be
cause they were constantly charged with
being off the level. The game goes with
me name, sometimes.
A man's color doesn't denote the qua!
Ity of his punch.
It's a cinch that anyone who sticks to
the game is going to get trimmed. The
thing is to know when to quit, and
notice there Isn't one in 100 who does.

President Lucas of ths Northwestern
league. Is buck In Tortland after
stormy month on the sound, and gives
out aasurstie. that ths., syncopated
league will' prove Immensely popular
with the, Tens. Mr. Lucas is confident
that the league will win out In the
courts In ths action instituted by Ab.r.
deen to show cause why ths latter city
was dropped from ths league. '
'."We won ths first brush against the
boys.' said Mr. Lucas, "and I feel sure
that we are down to win again Febru
ary IS,' when the second ease Is heard.
One of our strongest points Is the can
celled check that came back from
Aberdeen for the f 1000 forfeit placed by
the Aberdeen feopls.
"TV's have made out the schedule
which will be relessed next Sunday. We
are going, ngni aneaa wnn u our ar
rangements for next year.
"The directors want me to make ar
rangements . to open ths league head
quarters in' Tacoma, and I shall proba
bly do that but, of Courser It Ub depend
ent on ths action of the courts. , I shall
contlnus my office in Fortland until
after that matter has been settled." If
Aberdeen wins then I shall continue
my office bars if Aberdeen placest a
team In Portland. ' -
'We have arranged a split series on
the sound, playing three games in one
town and three in another during the
week. This works out nicely with the
four club league. '
1 look for Eddie Qulnn to make
money with the Tacoma club. Qulnn Is
a good- mixer ana a spienmd manager
and his team wll no doubt be up in the
race." . . .. . .
