ALABAMA RIFLE
TEAM PRAISED
Bi WEISS
MONTGOMERY. ALA., Sept 13. -
Efferverscing with a description of the
brilliant record made by the Alabama
rifle team at Seagirt, Lieutenant Colo
nel w. F. Wiess. of Montgomery, who
coached the team to its success, has
just returned to the city, the first one
of the squad to reach home from the
New Jersey range.
"Alabama showed up better than
ever before," said Colonel Weiss. "We
kept up our climbing record and fin
ished fourth, the highest we have ever
stood heretofore. The marine corps
beat us by only two points. Our ag
gregate score was. as I recall. 2,640,
while the marine corps was 2,642. We
beat states that we never dreamed of
distancing.
Four members of the Alabama team
were held in the final try-out for the
national team to go to Ottawa, Canada,
to compete for the Palmer trophy. 1
have noticed since leaving Seagirt that
Sergeant H. F. Teal, of the Montgom
ery True Blues, was the only one of the
four to make the national team and
this is quite an honor. The other
three who tried out in the finals were
Sergeant E. H Pope, of the Blues;
Lieutenant T C. Locke, Montgomery,
on the staff of the Second regiment,
and. Captain Mell D. Smith, of Bir
mingham. unassigned.”
Sergeant Teat has already gone to
Ottawa with the national team
The Alabama team consisted of fif
teen shooters and six officers in charge
of various branches of work. The com
manding officer was Adjutant General
J. B. Scully, who went to New York
after the Seagirt shoot broke up. He is
expected to return to Montgomery in a
few days.
The Alabama team was at Seagirt
three weeks. While there General
Scully gave assurance that the rifle
range at Montgomery would be over
hauled immediately and rifle practice
held on a larger scale than ever, as the
war department is demanding It.
CARL MORRIS WAVERING
BETWEEN CAB AND RING
SAPULPA. OKLA..Sept 13.—Carl Mor
ris, the big engineer, is hesitating be
tween the prize ring and the Frisco loco
motive. He is in receipt of many offers
from big promoters in .the tight game,
some of them proposing handsome guar
tees and percentages of gate receipts.
Alex McLean, of the Pilgrim Athletic
Athletic club in Boston makes an ahiring
offer and requests that Carl meet either
Bombardier Wells or Al Palzer during Oc
tober. The big Frisco and Los Angeles
chibs are also bidding for Morris
' The big promoters appear to think I
am still a 'live one' and I feel encour
aged over it. I am today a better man
than I ever thought of being and in my
next bouts I hope to demonstrate this
fact. The fight game looks good to me.
but the Frisco locomotive is a sure win
ner."
CRACKERS OPEN TODAY
FOR CLOSING SERIES
The Crackers left Atlanta yesterday
for their final trip and open in Memphis
today. They will play at Red Elm to
day, Saturday and Sunday.
The Crackers will disband after the
game Sunday. Some of them will re
turn to Atlanta before departing for
their home cities, but most of them will
leave direct for their homes from Mem
phis.
Charles Alperman, the manager of
the club and the man who will prob
ably be field leader of the Crackers
under Billy Smith next season, will no
doubt return here, and will probably
take up his permanent residence here
for the winter.
FIELD GOOD, BUT SCORES
POOR AT SOUTHAMPTON
SOUTHAMPTON. N. Y.. Sept. 13.
With a score of 84. Fred Herreschoff. of
Garden City, led a field of 106 starters
In the qualifying round of the annual
tournament over the National golf
links of America yesterday. High
scores were the rule despite the fact
that some of the best American and
British players competed. Next after
Herreschoff was John Reid. Jr., St An
drews, with 85.
TIGERS PRACTICING NOW
ON OPEN STYLE OF PLAY
PRINCETON, N. J.. Sept IS.—From
the system of practice which Coach
Cunningham has inaugurated for
Princeton it begins to look as though
the Tigers are going to depend almost
entirely on the open style of game.
Half a dozen men are practicing
pupts daily, while another squad is put

"Philadelphia Jawn’s” Kid Brother, 17 Years Old, Is Meeting Champions
TAI) SEES IN YOUNG JACK O’BRIEN A GREAT BOXER
By Tad.
Gentlemen, we have with
us today Young Philadel
phia Jack O'Brien. This
young lightweight from the Un
conscious City is a brother of the
famous "Phil Jawn.” who a few
years ago won tile light-heavy
weight championship by stopping
Bob Fitzsimmons in 'Frisco.
Rut, back to the biscuits. This
O'Brien is the ORIGINAL Jack
of the family. His big broth
er, Jawn. was merely nicknamed
with that monicker, his right name
being Joseph
Young John is really the sur
prVse of the year in fisticuffs. Do
you know of another lad seventeen
years of age who has fought all
the champions in his class, figured
in over 30 battles and was knocked
down but once and has never yet
lost a decision? That’s the record
of this youngster.
And just remember that the same
steady, industrious work done by
this youngster in any honorable
line of endeavor would have marie
a much greater man of him.
He is a c ollege boy. and until last
year attended regularly. The fight
ing bug was boru in young John,
and, try as they might, the family
could never kill it. Big Jawn sent
the lad to college, but he had a
hankering to tight, and at the age
of sixteen won the amateur ban
tam title at the A. A. U. Jawn
opened the American Boxing club
in Philly. and there the younger
aid, anxious to see the bouts, agreed
to work in the box office for his ad
mission fee.
There is a law in Philly which
states that the names of all con
testants must be handed' into the
police 24 hours before any con
test. The management this night,
of course, handed in the names,
but, not being sure of the prelimi
nary boys showing up. wrote in the
names of some actor friends—Ed
die Foy, Pat Rooney. Victor Moore.
George Cohan and Fred Stone.

go on the boy with the Eddie Foy

the card read Eddie Foy vs. George

Mr. Foy failed to show, and
O'Brien a. bit up in the air, called
upon his kid brother to fill in. He
did. That was his first profession
al appearance, and he won hands
down. After that Jawn. thinking
he had a new champ in the family,
sent the kid out, and in seven
months he fought 30 battles, in
cluding Tommy Carey, Tommy
Langdon. Young Brown. Leach
