EXPEKT NAUGHTON TALES ABOUT FIGHT BITUATION No Tear-in Fighters Worth While Mentioning Are Left and Clevsr Fellows Are in Limelight. By W. W. Naughton. San FraneiBeo, July 10. Now that Willie Bitchie has shown himself every inch a champion that is, by compar ison with contemporaneous lightweights which is the only way to judge a ris ing young fighter the question js, What will he do nextt There is some talk of Bitchie taking a trip to Europe. If his wishes lie in that direction no one can say him nay, for he has entrenched himself in such a way with fair-minded sports that no chance remains to taunt him with be ing afraid of the issue with any of his heft living. The story goes that Bitchie long ago set his heart upon a trip through older lands and that he wants to take ad vantage of his present position and earning power to fulfill his desire. He Is sensible enough to know that a ring man's grip of the topmost rung is at all times insecure and he thinks it best to indulge a long-felt hankering while things are coming his way. This is a better way of putting it than asserting that he is in need of a rest, for Bitchie is only just back from a six months' layoff and can harlly boast jaded muscles and frayed nerves. Whenever Willie gets roady to re sume fistic activities he will find sev eral worthy opponents. Freddie Welsh wants a crack at the title and so does Harlem Tommy Murphy. Leach Cross ins the boo buzzing in his bonnet and Ad Wolgast has begun agitation for a return match. In Wolgast 's case the fact that his advances are not taken over .seriously is due to himself. Wolgast has bad several chances to redeem himself, and he has not trained sufficiently ou any one occasion. He could easily mako himself a strong drawing card with the public if he would forsake city life for - a few months and spend his time on his farm. Then if ho came back armed with a physician's certificate sotting forth that he had stored up plenty of vitality during his sojourn in the conu try he would attract attention from the promoters. In the writer's opinion Wolgast is far from being a back num ber. ' .i 1 Discussions have arisen in England and Australia as to whothcr tho "tear in" fighters of the present day are bet ter boxers than the clover follows who made a business of pugilism 15 or 20 years ago. Some of tho arguments used in support of the various viowB ex pressed are highly interesting, but ono very important matter has beon over looked. There aro no "tear-in" fight ers now at leaHt none worth talking about. The clover fellows have come into their own ngain. Take the smaller men. When Torry Mcdovern, with bent back, lowered Tioad and rapidly revolving fists, began demolishing tho nations of the earth, the opinions that many persons held in respect to the noble art of self-defense weer revolutionized. After the Brook lyn whirlwind had run amuck for a year or two, grave doubts existed asto whether tnere was any scienunc oiuc to boxing, for had not the game devel oped a youth who, by determined on slaught, could upset all ideas of lead ing, countering, timing, sidestepping and what not I 1 And when Terry spread-eagled Ped dler Palmer, the pride of British pug dom, in one round, the belie that forthrightness was the one and only antidote for cleverness became firmer grounds than ever. Terry strutted his brief period and 'then went under to another "tear-in" fighter in the person of Young Cor bett. It is worthy of note, by the way, that each of these "tear-in" special ists fell a victim to a fellow who also operated along "tear-in" lines. Cor bett did fairly well until he ran foul of Battling Xelson, who was possibly the most headlong fighter of them all greater even than Terry McGovern, the founder of the "tear-in" dynasty. Nelson did more than any of them to show that cleverness could be made to Buecnmb to direct .methods. Among other things he won from Joe Gans, who was possibly the most scientific lightweight tho world had ever known. When Nelson's time came it was an other "tear-in" fighter who account ed for him. This was Ad Wolgast, and while Wolgast was still untroubled with the spasms of appendicitis, the tough est experience he ever had was with still another "tear-in" fighter, towit, Knockout Brown. With the passing of Wolgast the "tear-in" ledge seems to have been worked out. Bud Anderson, the Van couver lightweight, has been disposed of. Tommy Murphy tears in occasion ally, but docs not confine himself to that style of milling. Tommy told the writer once that he aimed to fight close when opposed to a clever oppon- ent ,and box cleverly when in front of a rusher. From the lightweights down, the cler lads are in the ascendant again, Packey McFarland, who can claim to be a lightweight now that the weight limit has been hunched, is nothing if not clever, and unlesB Jack Britton has changed tactics since he went East he is also a boxer of the brainy, resource ful stamp. Jimmy Duffy, the Loekport bey, who is fast forging to the front, is another exponent of scientific pugilism, while Bitchie, Kivers, Mandot, Leach Cross and Freddie Welsh are all performers of the "hit, step and got away school.
