Tommy ryan isn't going to join the Jim F’lynn camp with any idea of teaching the Pueblo fireman how to box or how to fight. He is merely going to try to show him n way to whip Jack Johnson at bas Vegas. N. M. ‘July 4 This is what Ryan says in a let ter 1 got from him at Oakland. Cal.. The gist of Tommy's talk is to the effect that Flynn is too old a bird in the ring to successfully stand for a change of style at this time. It wouldn’t bo safe, vouches .Ryan, .to make him shift the tactics he has used with success for a long time. But Tommy thinks he can show him some tricks worth while, tric’ks that can be used with a great deal nt effect both during the training - period and after the fight has start ■ ed. ■‘t\ e're here. Morrow and 1. train ing for Howard's battle with Sailor Petrovsky, which takes place in Oakland May 22," Ryan wrists "This will be Howard's fourth bat tle since coming here and he has won all of them handily enough, show ing constantly improving form. "Right after the Petrovsky fight w e will leave for Las Vegas, where I will take charge of Flynn's train ing for the Johnson fight. Morrow will do a lot of work with Flynn, which will be a good thing for both of them. "I have seen it stated in several papers lately, that l am going into the Flynn camp with the idea of leaching him a whole lot about boxing and to change his style l<> fit into that of the black fellow. These stories always force a smile out of me. Such a thing would be fatal if it were not impossible. "To begin with. Flynn has been going along in a certain way and winning steadily with his own style of mixing. He's an old hand at the game, too old. in fact, to stand for a shift in tactics now. especially in the. limited time 1 would have to show 7 him things.' "No. there's only one thing to do with Flynn. That is to get him Into the very best of condition and then thtow.him into the ring and . let him do the best he can, back ing him up with the finest of coach ing and seconding." ■ Our “straws" this season have striking distinctive- zttfc ness ’ n quality and nianu- / •< I‘acture.

"The average batted ball that goes to an infielder is traveling at a rate of 60 miles an houf," writes some statistical expert. There's a lot of bosh to such re ports. The variation is probably from 20 miles to more than 60. Frequently a brisk runner can beat an infield hit. because it travels to the infielder very slowly; and the very next ball he hits may result in an out at first, by ten feet. • • • Pat Donahue, the new Cracker catcher, ■warmed up for the first time in an At lanta uniform yesterday.

Zinn, a man the Crackers might easily have had if the Highland team had not gone all punk, is proving a wonder with Manager Wolverton's team. In the sev enth inning yesterday he hit a home run that scored himself and two others. In the ninth he singled, scoring Daniels and later tallied himself with the winning run on a passed ball.
