Dear Sir: Tho writer has Just read 'tho 4 article In Tuesday's lssuo, June 14th, having to do wltb tho ball game between Weed and Klam- nth Falls on lost Sunday. Just want to say that the gamo was a disappointment to all Weod fans as wo all like air tight baso ball. Our boys will come to Klamath Falls Sunday and wo hopo the gamo will be better, whoover wins. Your article on tho gamo Is rather an exception to the gen- oral rule of base ball articles 4 4 having to do with country baso ball, In that most of thorn aro moro ot a mud-sllnglng cam- palgn than anything else. Ap- 4 predate very much what you 4 havo to say about tho Weed 4 team, and wo want tho boys to 4 merit your good opinion wheth- 4 er they aro nt homo or away from homo.

RICKARD ON BOXING nY MAIUO.V HALE NEW YORK, June 16. "I go to see a boxing bout only becauso my husband Is in' tho business," said Mrs. Tex. Rlckard, leaning back among her gay cusnlons and putting; nor teeth Into a chocolate marsh mallow. "If Tex were not a promoter of fights, I guess I would novor have seen one at all." ''Uut don't you like excitement?'"' she was asked. "Excitement, yes blood, no. And as for physical disfigurement I can't say that I aeo anything In It It's why I always sit In the box farthest from the ring. I don't .enjoy the spectacle ot genoral disintegration ot the physique; which seems to de light many thousands ot men, and almost all iwomon." "Ah, then, you do bellovo that wo men enjoy the spectaclo ot blood and muscle and blows?" "Oh, dear mo, yes," sighed Mrs. nickard. "I think many women en Joy It far moro than I do. nut I think every woman, It questioned, would admit that what she really enjoys most ot all Is a tie a draw.
