Micky O’Brien To Fight
Harold Moore Tuesday In
Feature Of Franks’ Card
Chester Conklin to Meet
Battling Carol in 8
Round Semi-Final
BY JACK REID
“Panama” Mickey O'Brien will
be the feature attraction on Pro
moter K. O. Franks' boxing card
Tuesday evening in his outdoot
arena located back of C. A. Trus
sell’s nsed car lot on Thomas street,
O’'Brien has been living in Ath
ens for several weeks, but Tues
day's fight will mark his first ap
pearance here in the ring. He has,
however, served as referee on one
or two occcasions.
In an effort to give the battler
plenty of opposgition and assure a
good fight, Promoter Franks has
secured Harold Moore, the battl
ing blonde from Griffin, as O'Brien’s
foe, L
Mocore Old Favorite
An old favorite here, fans al
ready know just how much to ex
pect of Harold. They know him as
a hard working youngster who al«
ays gives all that he has to win
O’Brien will go into the fight, which
is slated for & rounds, weighing
about 176, while Moore will balance
the scales at around 172,
Headed by such a feature fight,
the soldier-promoter calls the card
another All-Star occasion, and it
looks like he is making good his
boast to bring Athens some of the
best fighters in the South if hq
gets a good crowd. A fair num
ber of fans saw last week's show.
The pride of East Point, Chester
Conklin, has been engaged to meet
Battling Carol, an Augusta boy, in
the 8 round semi-windup.
Like Moore, the East Point boy
has fought here on many occasions
and has earned a fine reputatidn
as a glovesman with local fans,
Conklin packs a punch with eith
er hand, and fights an aggressive
battle all the way. Chester will go
into the imbroglic weighing 165
while Carol will weigh 160,
Battling Carol is a new fighter
in local circles, gpd has never
fought here before. His reputation
from Augusta, however shows that
he is a fine performer and a real
fighter, If he is of the same cali
bre as several other Augusta ring
men, such as Baby Montell, Bax
ley Hardy and James Ivey, wi{o
have done ring work here.
Wrestling Match
There will also be a 30 minulte,
best 2 out of 3 falls, wrestling
match on the card, with Spec
Hamilton, who has made a good
showing in previous bone bending
contests here, taking on Irvin Ray
burn, Anderson, S. C, |
Hamilton has fought here before,
but the Anderson grappler will be
making his rudimentary start on
the local mat. It has been several
weeks since a wrestling go has been
staged here, and it should be just
~what the fans like.
A six round clash between the
popular XKid Refus and “High
Moon,” both of Athens, will open
the card. Refus has fought many
times in Franks’ shows and is
plenty good, while the other dusky
boy will be making his first ap
pearance,
The card will start at 8:30 o'clock
with admission being 25 and 40
! cents,
Athens Juniors Win
In “Y” League Over
Five Point Bombers
The Athens Juniors completely
swamped the Five Point Bombers
Friday in the Junior baseball lea
gue, which started at the Y. M.
C. A. last week. The final score
was 18 to 2.
Comer Owens, on the mound for
the winning team, gave the Bomb
ers just three hits, and was never
in serious trouble. Starting in the
first inning, when five runs cross
ed the plate, the Juniors scored
almost at will. 8
Owens, with four for four, and
Rivers, with three for four, were
outstanding hitters for the win
ners. Jim Kidd, Junior catcher,
played a good game, and got two
hits. : .

One More Week of Play in
League Finds Postal
Team in Good Lead
The Postal Clerks of the Dia
mosd league appear almost cer
tain winners in the first half of
the loop, holding a lead of a game
and a half over its nearest rival,
Georgia Power company, with one
more week to play.
An overwhelming victory Friday
over the Power company just
about cinched the first half cham
pionship for the Postal team. Led
by Howell Praither, Jordan Ennis,
Cleo Sims and Brick Stone, the
Postal team slammed out 13 hits
and 18 runs off Comer Whitehead,
while Hugh O'Farrell and Frank
Dobbs were holding the Power
company team to 9 bingles and 7
runs.
The second half of the league
will be started immediately after
the final game ¥Friday, and Secre
tary Comer Whitehead has an
nounced that the schedule for the
first half will be repeated.
During the first haif of the lea
gue, play has been unusually good,
with many close and low-scoring
games being staged. There is still
a possibility that both the Fire
men and the Power company can
tie the Postal clerks, but there is
very little chance of either team
winning.

Fifteen boys were selected Satu®-
day by W. A. Hodgson to compose
the Allen R. Fleming Post of the

to be held in Rome, Ga., during the

A majority of the boys selected

bers of the team that represented
Athens in the' tournament last

chance to make a good showing in
the tournament this time.
Coach Hodgson® selected two
catchers, four pitchers, five infield
ers and four outfielders to repres
ent Athens. ‘This year's team is
larger and more experienced than
that of last season, and should be
able to give the best teams in the
tourney a real serap,
A game to be played here next
Thursday with Elberton is being
planned, but arrangements have
not yet been completed, Eiberton
defeated the local team iq a game
earlier in the season, but will find
much more opposition if the game
is played Thursday.
There will be no admission
charged for the game, and the pub
lic is cordially invited to attend.
Details will be announced later.
Boys selected to compose the
local team, are:
Catchers—Jim Booth and Jesse
Jordan.
Pitchers — Cunningham, Charles
Ross, Robert Horne and Roy Hale.
Infielders—Ralph Roberts, Ralph
Condon, Louis Trousdale, Hubert
Edwards and Grover Presnell.
Outfielders — Payne, John D.

Citizens and Southern Is
Beaten Friday in Soft
ball League I
With Clyde Anderson pitching
‘air-tight ball every inning except
the second, the McGregor softball
ers Friday trounced the C. and S.
team in the Commercial league
with a 4 run rally in the last inn
ing, 8 to 5.
Hopping on Pitcher Warren La
nier for 4 hits and the same num
ber of runs in the first inning, the
ultimate winners saw their lead
soon drop into a tie, when the C.
and S. clan scored 4 runs in their
:half of the second.
From then until the first of the
seventh things stood in a deadlock
with both pitchers finding little
trouble in holding down opposing
batters. MecGregor’s last Inning
rally, however, was more than en
ough to win as the C. and S. team
was able to score but one run in
its half of the lasy frame.

Athens Is Beaten Badly
By Bishop Saturday:
Score Is 19-7
The league-leading Eatonton
baseball elub almost, but not
quite, went down to defeat yestep.
day, at the hands of the lowly
Athens CCC camp team. Eaton.
ton, however, managed to stave off
a last inning rally, and won the
game 5 to 3.
Athens was overwhelmed py
Bishop, 19 to 7, and Greensboro
ruined Good Hope's chances of
catehing, up with Eatonton hy
winning 7 to 3.
A jinx that started the first of
the season, and has clung on
throughout the first half, still
ruled the destinies of CCC's bat
tling ball elub yesterday. With
one run already across the plate
in the ninth inning, and two men
jon base with no - ene -out, Hunt
smacked one on the nose, but it
went straight to second base, and
Eatonton pulled a fast double
play. It saved the game for the
league leaders, because Hunt's
ball was hit squarely, and had it
got away, both runners might
have crossed the plate,
Adkins, with four for five, was
the outstanding hitter for the wins
ners, while Savage, Jones and
Coile, each with two bingles, were
best for the losers.
Bishop had a regular field day
with Athens, getting 15 blows, and
scoring 19 runs, with ease. Athens
got 12 hits, but never seriously
threatened the Bishop crew.
Montgomery Kermnimer, with three
hits out of six trips to the plate,
was Bishop's best hitter. Every
man on the team, with the ex
ception of Pitcher Pete Dickens
and Knight, got at least one hit.
Good Hope's defeat was the
biggest surprise of the day, for
the Walton county lads were con
sidered a real threat to overcome
Eatonton for the first half crown.
It is pretty near an impossibility
for the team to do Bo’ now, how
ever.
Whitehall and = Statham post
poned their game because of the
death . of . Rev. John' Grizzle in
