Morris Meets McFarland Here;
Wolgast Battles Ritchie, and
Mandot Faces Rivers .on Coast
By Lett Hook.
WHILE no championship i« at
stake tonight in the heavy
weight mill at the Dixie
Athletic club, it should pr ove ; n in
foresting affair, "nevertheless. ('ail
Morris will probably flnq Jack .Mc-
Farland a much stronger - opponent
than Jack Keating, and the bout
should go the ten scheduled rounds.
It will be a slugging affair, ami
that is tire brand of sport local fistic
followers desire. McFarland lias a
pretty fair record for a beginirc.
He certainly looks like a eon,. '
and, according to his manager
Johnny Oliver, who Im, maraged
many top-notchers, MeFarlatui can
lit as hard as any heavyweight in
the world.
Tonight’s fight means a heap to
Morris. He still believes that he
will capture the crown that re.as
so uneasily on the head of Jack
lohnson. But if McFarland should
happen to knock him out, or even
get the verdict, it means back to
the engine in Sapulpa.
And there will be a keg of good
Atlanta money for tin winne: to
night, too. The club promoters
have arranged to put tin- victor on
with Tom Kennedy, and the win
ner of that mill with Jim Stewart.
Tn fact, it is the plan of the club
owners to have a series of limits
which will eliminate all the “dead
ones" and find the real "white
liope."
Corking Semi-Windup Bout.
The semi-windup tonight will
prove every bit as interesting a.- the
big show. Spider Britt and Meyer
Fries, two small packages of dyna
mite, will clash for I'm.- ’steenth
time. And my fan who has ev< i

The Wolgast-Rii'iii. affair
. roused a tremendous amount of
enthusiasm in sporting circle,, and
it. should be so, for Ritclib i op.
of the most promising lightweights
in the land. A year ago lie .
almost unknown outside of Sun
Francisco, while today lie is con
sidered a serious contender for the
cbJuhpionship.
Ritchie got ni.- first opportunity
to win fame in the squared arena
on last Thanksgiving day. Freddy
Welsh, the present English light
weight champion, was scheduled to
meet Wolgast in a battle for the
title at Vernon. Cal,
On the very eve of the struggle,
Wolgast was stricken with appen
dicitis, was forced to call off
his go with the boxer from acros
the Atlantic.
Ritchie Made Long Trip.
On the afternoon of November -4,
Ritchie received a wire from Tom
McCarey. reading as follows: “Will
you meet Freddy Welsh tomorrow
< Thanksgiving) ? If acceptable,
take the afternoon train for the
South.’’
Ritchie boarded th, train for the
South, rode 500 miles, and took
breakfast in a Los Angeles case.
Willie was unheralded and was
unattended by’ a manager or a pal.
He was among strangers, but his
ourage never deserted him for a
moment. He finally secured a cou-

Ritchie's showing against Welsh
attracted widespread attention. Ho
secured many good dates after

.s an opponent for Wolgast. Tho
bout was only a four-round affair,
and was arranged in order to test
the "Michigan Wildcat s" strength.
No decision was given, but the
majority of the critics at the ring
side stated that Ritchie had ill'.'

distayc... of the bout was also four

four-round route, while Wolgast
has always done his best work in
twenty-round c-mtests.
If Wolgast is at his best, he
-could defeat Ritchie today. He

"The rules 0f’1912 have produced a

“Tlie rules have justified themselves

Brickley played the greatest
game of his career and demonstrat

friends that the dastardly attack
published Friday by the Boston
‘ press and purporting to come from
a former Exeter coach was entirely
untrue, to suj- the least. Never
has Brickley shown to better ad
vantage and his playing Saturday
was more skillful and harder than
at any time this year. He played
errorless ball and h*’ was in every
play throughout the game. Two
drop goals, a touchdown, two in

long runs in a Harvard-Yale game
are enough for any player to be

Bill Smith Is Bubbling Over
With Enthusiasm; Visions of
A Pennant for Atlanta Fans
SOME ball club next year, some
ball club! We have Bill Smith's
word for it. Sitting back in
his chair at baseball headquarters,
behind the old oak desk and looking
as like old times as though he
hadn’t been away at all, William
Andrew talks baseball—-and talks
it in away that makes you see vis
ions of pennants and tilings next
year.
Told in Bill Smith’s own words,
the story of next year'.--: team reads
liks this:
* *
, j 'LL pick my infield from Aglei .
* Alperman, Keating, Dobaid (of
Dayton), Wallace Smith and a man
to come from tlie big leagues. You
know Agler. They're crazy over
him in the International league yet,
and I could have sold him to Jersey
t’ity for a big price. Keating was
good in the Virginia league last
year, and so was Dobard. They
will make a big bld for the short
stop job. And then, as I said, there
is another one coining.
"<>h, yes, third base—well, it looks
like Smith. He came from the lots
around St. Louis only a couple of
years back. But he looked like a
comer. He's big. I like ’em big.

An j- sore that is obstinate or slow in healing should cause suspicion and
put the sufferer on guard. Many an ulcer which could have been cured if
it had been properly treated, in time, has been allowed to remain open un
til it became infected with some degenerate poison from the outside which
made it a malignant, eating sore. Most old sores come from an impure
and polluted condition of the blood anti can be healed if the circulation is
cleansed and purified of the predisposing cause. To attempt to cure a
chronic ulcer with salves, washes, lotions, etc. is trifling with what may
become a serious condition. S. S. S. heals chronic ulcers in a perfectly
natural way. It goes down into the blood and removes the impurities and
morbid matters which are the means of keeping the
place open; then the sore is bound to heal. Not only

healing powers, ami aids in promoting the necessart
