Farren Should Be Barred
Seaburn Brown argues boxing faces a crisis when a single fighter delays a show by refusing a main event. Frankie Farren, a California lightweight, blocked Seattle boxing by declining to box Friday, prompting the Cascade Athletic club to move the card to next week. Brown urges leniency to set a deterrent, proposing a lifetime ban to curb similar "running out" tricks and protect promoters, fans, and other fighters.

Improved Pitching Is White Sox Big Hope in 1922 Race
Improved pitching is the White Sox main hope in the 1922 American league race. Charles Robertson appears best in spring work, with Acosta, Leverette, Russell, and Hodge among others proving capable. Infield and outfield strength show little gain, and rookies were scarce. The club may rise a notch but unlikely to reach first division without a base ball miracle. Newcastle fire destroys three fruit packing houses with $100,000 loss.

Heilmann says he cannot switch to left handed batting or increase speed, but remains a powerful hitter.
