FLYNN GRITTY
IN 1307 FIGHT
WITH JOHNSON
By \V. W. Naughton.
I HAVE yet to read a ’'statement"
from Jack Johnson in which
some reference is not made to
the terrible mauling that awaits
Jim Flynn at Las Vegas on July 4.
Now, one might think that hav
ing so much the better of the pros
pect from the ordinary methods of
doping out pugilistic results. Jack
could afford to be both chivalrous
and magnanimous and refrain from
the threatening language that ema
nates fprii his training camp every
few dajrs: From the fact that he
continues to shake his horny (Ist
a't the fireman. Jack is laying him
self open to the suspicion that he is
not as consummately confident
about the July scrap as ho pre
tends to be.
Ones thing is certain, however.
If Jack is bent upon intimidating
Flynn£ his efforts will fall fiat, for
I* lynt-i is a fellow whose courage is
un-datihicd. Pity it is that his
othet*'’’fighting qualifications are
not qtti.a par with his grit. If they
wercj he. would permit some of its
to Jthink more kindly of his
<■ ha trees.
h’hr weal or woe. Jim will surely
battle like, a tiger when-he goes
against the champion. Ami even If
he-sttcceeds no belter than he did
wlieh he faced the big colored man
in Safi Francisco in November,
1967. ho will command the respect
of the spectators a tribute
of praise is never withheld from
the ring man who nuts up a brave
struggle in the face of the over
powering odds.
Flynn Ran Into Blows.
Just now the sports of the Pa
cific coast ate refreshing their
memories in connection with that
last eleven-round bout between
Johnson and Flynn. They recall
that Flynn tried to fight close from
th<- first smash of the gong ami
that even when tossed back by the
force of Johnson's uppercuts he re
turned to the charge again and
again. He fought right into John
son's hands, in fact. AU the big
negro had to do was Io set himself
to meet Flynn's rush, and the un
fortunate fireman kept hurling
himself on the spears.
ifrientla of Flynn outside the
ropes fool friends they surely were
-kept urging the fireman to leap
at Johnson, and 'Flynn did so un
flinchingly. And for fear Flynn
might forget that he was being
urged to jump at the cannon's
mouth, Johnson, with sneering
sarcasm, kept saying:
"i'ome on. Flynn: they’re tell
ing xmt to."
Flynn took a fearful whaling
that day and took it like a Spar
tan. He was bruised and bat
tered. but full of fighting spirit
clear to the finish.
Toward the end of the tertth
round—the las' but one -he glared
good humoredly at Johnson out of
his undamaged eye and with a
shake of the head remarked:
"You're a clever guy."
Fought Hard to End.
In the very next round, while still
hurling himself at Johnson. Fix nil

brought him face downward to the
floor Hr was game to the last

It Is to wonder if that affair ('ar

by taunting the other man into

probably will come.

Saturday night and was met at

UNITED STATES LEAGUE
HAS PLAYED LAST GAME
PITTSBURG. June 24.—The last
game in the United States league—for
this season ai least was played yes
terday at (.'hicago by the two teams,
Pittsburg ami ('hicago, which, it had
been hoped, would form the nucleus of
a reorganized league
Word was received here today that
President Marshall Henderson had a
fruitless conference in Chicago with
Otto Steifel. the St. Louis brewer, who,
it had been announced, stood ready to
back teams in SI. Louis and Indian
apolis. and in either Milwaukee or Kan
sas city, if necessary.
Seifel will not back any teams in the
league this season, and thus the last
hopes arc gone glimmering. John Pow
ers. who was backing Hie Columbian
league and interested in (lie I'nited
States league, will have plans com
pleted by next September, if is under
stood. for the launching of the league
next spring. The Pittsburg team, now
in Chicago, will play a series of exhi
bition games there tills week and then
return presumably to disband.
SALLY LEAGUE FIRST HALF
CLOSES ON WEDNESDAY
Tim first half of the South Atlantic
league will be brought to a close on
Wednesday, and the second half will
commence the following day.
The Jacksonville Scouts have the
pennant sewed up in a sack. They
came with a rush during the past three
weeks, and have such a lead that, if
the' drop the remaining three games
to be played they would still win the
pennant.
But all the other teams have appar
ently strengthened, and the race in the
second season promises to be a free
for-all affair.
CLARKE MAY GET BACK
IN HARNESS: IS TRAINING
PITTSBURG. June 24. Reports are
fix ing thick ami fast here that _ Fred
Clarke max' return to the Pirates' out
field. Os course tile manager denies
the rumor, but Clarke's presence in the
game undoubtedly would put more con
fidence into the team.
Carey is the weak member in the
garden, and, according to the report.
Clarke is practicing in the mornings
with hfs team, trying to get back Into
condition.
When Clarlje retired this spring lie
-ai l it was forever. However, ther<-
are many here who believe dial if his
presence would win the pennant for
the Pilates lie would jump Into the
game immediately.

It was strictly an executive ses

could be told nothing.
"Gentlemen. I wish to say noth

governor’s final remark, "but I will
make this promise to you. I will

time before next Monday evening.
You will have to be satisfied witli

JOE WARD QUITS BALL
AFTER THIS SEASON
BALTIMORE. June 24. Joe Ward, the
Augustan playing with the Rochester
team, may drop out of baseball next year.
This news was brought here by Joe’s
father, who is in the city for the Derw>-
o ratio m vent ion.
Mr. Ward was formerly a ball player
himself. About 30 years ago he was one
of the best pitchers the Athletics had.
Baseball was different then, a pitcher
being allowed only to throw the ball
underhanded.
Mr. Ward says Joe has been wise and
saved his money, with the result that he
is ready to quit the national game and to
settle down to private business. Ward
played thin! base for the Hustlers last
year, and started at playing that position
the beginning of the present season, but
Spencer did not throw much, and a switch
was made, placing Ward at first. Al
though he plays the initial sack well, he
looks more at home at the hot corner.
Have you lost faith
in medicine?
So had these men. But R. R. R. restored
faith and health, too
“I had ulcers and rheumatism ror
8 years,” writes Mr. Joseph Hunter ol
Elk Hill, Va. "I couldn't find any
medicine to give me but very little
relief. I drifted along for months and
months in dreadful condition till one
day I happened to read in a newspaper
about 8.8.8. I tried it with very little
faith. But it did me so much good
that I ordered three bottles: and it has
done me more good than any medicine
I have taken. I feel better, eat more,
have less pain. I am glad I found a
medicine that suits my case.”
Mr. James Peterson of Ridge
Springs, S. C., writes: ‘‘Nothing did
me any good until I used 8.8.8. I
had some sore places in my leg. And
two bottles of 8.8.8. did me more good,
than twenty-nine dollars worth of
doctor's medicine. 8.8.8. is the greatest
medicine I ever used.’’
We have hundreds of such
grateful letters from people who
had lost all faith in medicine until
they tried 8.8.8. and were com
pletely cured. Your case cannot
be worse than theirs. Don't be
discouraged. Go to your drug
gist today and ask for 8.8.8.
Your money back if it fails to help
you.

This was absolutely all that he
would say.
But lie was friendly, more so than
the local people had expected he
would be.
And he left the distinct impres
sion that he intended to do noth
ing at all about the contest, to sim
■ ply state that he could do nothing
under the laws of the state to pre
vent the contest—-and lei it go at
this.
He also left a similar impres
sion on the people with whom he
traveled here on the train.
Will Consult Advisers.
The feeling Is here that the gov
ernor wishes again to consult Ills
legal advisers 1n Santa Fe, and. as
they all along have told him that
he is helpless in the matter and
can do nothing, the prospects look
bright for the verdiet to be favor
able. The governor mot with many
old friends here and some of them
of 30 years standing and appeared
entirely cordial.
At the conclusion of the session
with tlie club members the gov
ernor was asked point blank by two
of these friends to please say yes
or no and relieve the tension.
"Tut! tut!” he said, playfully
slapping one of them on the cheek,
"tell the boys anything you like.”
\nd he laughed with great good
nature.
These indications point Io a fa
vorable report from—him. or, rath
er to a non-committal attitude that
will be just what the local pro
moters want.
The governor was a little curious
to know whose money was being
spent for the arena and all the ad
vertising. etc., he evidently fearing
that this was entirely a foreign
enterprise. When assured by the
business men that it was Las Ve
gas coin that was being spread
around he seemed to bo better sat
isfied. This was a strong point
with the chief executive, appar
ently.
Flanagan Takes Charge.
"Jack Johnson is as good today
as he was two years ago at Reno.
"Ho doesn't have to be down to
the same weight he was then to
have his same speed and strength.
The two years in age would make
the natural difference in the
weights."
These wore a couple of the ideas
advanced by Tom Flanagan, of To

and friend of Jack Johnson arrived
In the city unexpectedly yesterday.

THREE
PROVERB
CONTEST
QUERIES I
ANSWERED
** ** To illustrate the high standard maintalneo in our distribution,
point out that all of ten S4OO pianos to be given away are of the Clex
land-Mannina manufacture.
The Contest Editor’s mail is heavy
these days. Among the host, of orders
for Answer Books, Proverb Books, and
back numbers of the Proverb Pictures,
there are scores of inquiries about points
in the rules of the contest that are not
clear in the mind of those who read them.
We are glad to extend every possible
help, hut there are so many of these in
quiries 1 hat it is imposible to do more than
group them and answer a number of them
at one time. Watch the columns of The
Georgian each day, therefore, if you have
written ns for more light on any point.
Even though you may not see your query
treated individually, you will surely find
the information you want. Today we take
up three questions that have been asked
by many during the past few days;
Q. What is the meaning of the word
“Panhandler'' used in the lettering that
accompanies picture Number 54?
A. Slang term for “Beggar.”
Q. Is it necessary to have three Answer
Books if I desire to submit three sets of
answers?
A. The Answer Book provides a means
of sending in three sets of answers in one
book. Three answer spaces are provided
on each page. The contestant may use
one of these spaces on each page for each
set of answers sent in.
Q. How will you prevent the throwing
together of all three sets of answers in
'making the awards if all three spaces in.
the Answer Book is used?
A. Very easily. The answer spaces are
numbered. “Eirst Answer.” “Second An
swer.” and “Third Answer” are the head
ings that appear over these spaces. It
follows that the use of the First Answer
space under each picture completes the
first set of answers. And the same is
true of the second and third answer
spaces. Bear in mind that not more than
one of these answer spaces may he used
in any page unless the same number are
used in all of the other pages.
Inquiries are beginning to come in re
garding the method of wrapping, tying
and sending in solutions. Some nervous
contestants are concerned lest there he
danger that their solutions may be lost
after they are received by us. Be assure* l
that every care will he taken to safeguard
these packages. Ample provision has al
ready hern made anil we will do our part
io prevent loss or lack ol identification.
It is not too early, however, to warn con
testants that they must do I heir share
also. No set of solutions should he sent
in without bearing, in a conspicuous place,
the name and address ol the sender A
moment’s retleetion will show you how
necessary Ibis is. If you use the Answer
Book published by Th< Georgian, you
will find provision already made for this
feature. Write your name and address
plainly under the words “Submitted by''
that you will Hind on the front cover. If
you use an Answer Book of your own
make, please make the same provision
for the prominent display of the name
and address.
Os course, you wil have plenty of time
for careful reviewing, compiling and send
ing in your set of answers. What has
been said about the subject here is intend
ed merely as a foreword.
It is true that he scaled In at some
thing like 200 pounds when he
boxed Jeffries, but remember,
please, that that was two years ago.
A man two years older would nat
urally be this much heavier.
"He weighed for me this morning
and the scales showed me 2J9 1-2;
that's simply great, and all he has
to take off during the next ten days
Is about five pounds. Anywhere be
tween 212 and 215 pounds the day
of the contest will suit me to a
