K. ) A hand-picked referee was the thU'd mari In the ring 'when Johnny Wilson won the worlds middleweight title from Mike O'iJowd In Ir.oslon .May c, 1I)0. And, strangely enough, another hand Picked arbiter was in the ring at Cleveland recently when Wilson lost the crown, to Ilryan Downey, the Co lumbus boxer. Wilson probably has come to the conclusion that referees of the hand- I'lcked variety arc unlucky for h'm, becauie, as middleweight ehumpion his career was anything but a rosy one. Mike O'Dowd insisted that Hector Mclnnls bo the third man in the ring when he met Wilson in boston. Wil son was forced to agree. At the end o twelve rounds, much to the chagrin of O'Dowd, Mclnnls awarded the de clsion to Wilson, and the middle weight championship went along wllh it. In the recent Cleveland bout Jimmy Gardner, of Hoston, was put Into tho ring to referee, at the instance of Wil son, who Insisted that the Cleveland loxiug Commission accept his man or there would be no fight. In the seventh round Cardner iwarded the decision to Wilson on u fool, after the Chaiflcstown lad had been denvn for two long counts. This decision was reversed by the Doxing Commission, which declared Downey the winner and awarded him the title. From all accounts of the fight, Downey was entitled to the verdict und the championship. Wilson has nu kick coming. He won the title with a hand-pieki d referee officiating and lost It the same way, What's wiuci for the gosling is soup for the gander What has become of the old fash ioned sporting editor who used to write a column about a homo run'.' What with conslabuk'S. traffic cops, els., laying for chances to pinch him for speeding, pitchers great and small laying awake nights in an effort to figure out some method of turning him back to the bench, and hoozis and' w'hulsis aching for a chance to take some kind of a whack at him, we'll say Babe Kulh is geiing some in hi 'campaign to shatter the home-run record. More, we believe it is a certainty now that the Ilattering Uambiiio wtll fracture his mark of fifty-four circuit "mashes. The fact that the Yankees have many, many games remaining to 'e played nt the Polo Grounds is all in Moth's favor, yet he doesn't play fa vorites as parks go, and he 'is still slaughtering most any kind of pitch ing, if he only exceeds his 1920 record by one lonely home run he will have accomplished a fe'at well worth w hile. A good many readers of the sport ing pages have come to the conclusion that the best sort of dope to follow i that written by an expert' who doesn't . now what he's talking about. This, in itself, qualifies him as an expert. Miss Mary K. Ilrowne and Mrs. Ma Sutton liundy laugh lightly at time. These two women tennis stars from the Pacific Coast have put life and In terest into the bitf tournaments for women players in the Kast this year, dropping their duties as bank clerks and the mother of several bouncing youngsters to take up racquets and help their sister players in the defense of the American National champion- AN OPEN LETTER TO WOMEN Mr. Little Tells How She Suffered and How Finally Cured Philadelphia, Pa. -"I was not . al:lc to do my housework and had to lie down most ot me time ano felt bad in my left side. My monthly periods were lrrog- ship against the Invading Mile. I.eng lcn. It was away back In 1!I0I that May Kutton created something of a furor by vvlnninj; the national singles cham pionship. Then, the very next year, she proved her class by going to Wim bledon and winning the title th'.-re. She repeated this performance in li)07, being the first American woman player to win such honors. Hack In 1912 Mary lirowni', gave a demonstration of the effectiveness of California tennis by winning Hie na tional title. Leading her field of rivals by a wide margin in pure class, she successfully defended the rhumpiun ship In IMS and 1914. finally being 'forced out by the flashy Molla Bjur siedt, who rose on the tennis horizon and flashed across tlve firmament with a brilliance that blinded the eyes of all comers for a period ,of three sue cesslve years and placed her in the select class with Miss Itrawne and the former Hazel Hotchkiss as u three time winner of the title in successive years. And now, after a period spent out of the calcium, Miss Browne and Mrs. Hundy come back to display a brand of tennis that has caused real enthusi asm and open admiration among all who have watched them at play. Pott: have proven to the satisfaction of the nuist capable tennis critics that they have iifiproved their game in retire ment, even though some of the erst while sliced and dash of their playing may be lacking. The spirit and persist ence of these two fine women players Is oerhaps the most admirable thing of all. MIMtiiil Ml 7,iSmi-mmd.iJhmmtJmm ,!' 1J ' - "- i . li -'' " . 1 11 1 , "i 1 i &fvW ra STANDARD.
