THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY, MAY 15, 1015. Bv Left Hook T HE Jim Flynn-Jim Savage match at the Auditorium-Armory on June 9 has just been closed and ’ hese two young heavyweights will -tart the white hope elimination tour nament that is planned for this city. The winner of .this bout will be signed to hook up with either A1 Palzer or Gunboat Smith. Then the winner of that scrap will meet Jesse Willard. It is just possible that Luther McCarty may be secured to display his wares within local boun daries. also, during the tourney. The Flynn-Savage set-to should prove a wonder. On form there are no two scrappers who look so even in everything. Flynn packs the heav ier punch, but Savage is cleverer. Savage Is Popular Here. Savage made a tremendous hit with local fans of the game of hit-and- getaway when he polished off A1 Ku- biak to a fare-the-well here last win ter And just at that time Kubiak looked to be in the running for the white title as he had defeated Carl Morris good a plenty only a few weeks previous. Savage displayed all the ear-marks of a champion in that mill. Kubiak only landed one clean blow during the entire ten rounds. Jim is, without doubt, the cleverest big man that has followed the ring game since Jim Corbett lost the heavyweight cham pionship to Bob Fitzsimmons in that memorable battle at Carson City . Corbett himself has declared that Savage is the shiftiest man he ever saw. If Jim could only acquire a wee bit heavier punch he would be a marvel. According to Dan Morgan, his manager, Jim has developed a much better kick than he possessed when he swapped punches with Ku biak. As for Flynn, he has only one real set-hack chalked up against him. A1 Palzer beat him. but the “Fighting Fireman” has always claimed that he was not at his best that day. And Palzer has dodged every offer Flynn has ever made for a return engage ment. Flynn Was Beating Champ. Flynn was beating Jack Johnson to a frazzle in Las Vegas when Referee Ed W. Smith awarded the negro the decision on a technicality. For six rounds Jim had the big negro back ing tip and holding on for his life. Jack Curley, one of the game’s greatest promoters, is now' holding the managerial reins over Flynn, and Jack really believes that he will yet grab the championship with the fireman. Curley is a big man in the pugilistic world and wouldn’t bother his time away with Flynn if he didn't think he had a man who was going to amount to something. Besides the F'lynn-Savage battle two other top-notch ten-round bouts will be staged on June 9. And every boxer, including Flynn and Savage, will be on the ground at least a week or ten days in ad vance. FORMWALT AND EDGEW00D CLASH IN TITLE SERIES Formwalt School, the winners of the South Side Public School League championship, and Edgewood School, the winners of the North Side, will meet in a post-season series of three games. The first game of the series will be played on the Marist College grounds Thursday afternoon at 3 o’clock, the second game on Friday and the final game of the series on Monday. Fraser, in the South Side, and Boulevard, in the North Side, the runners-up in the two leagues, will meet in a seven-inning game each day just before the championship af fairs, giving the Public School League fans a double bill. JESS WILLARD AND SMITH ENTERTAIN BIG CROWDS SAN FRANCISCO. May IB.—Jess Willard and Gunboat Smith, startina on the Anal lap of training for their mill here on May 20, entertained big crowds at their quartern yesterday. Spectators were surprised to see A1 Kaufman step out in fighting togs and, do some sparring with Gunboat Kaufman arrived in the morning, and expects to help Smith until the day of the battle.

Smith C ' HICAGO, May 15— Have you ever noticed that the man with the big punch -in the ring sometimes loses it because he is afraid that if he keeps on using it the knuckles will not stand the strain? It has happened frequent ly. Some fighters start out in their careers who knock 'em dead right off the i eel and keep on scoring so many slams of this character that before long they are voted the real sensations. Pretty soon it is notic ed that the slam is handed out more gingerly, opponents stick longer and longer, and presently there are so few knockouts to the credit of the fighter that they are conspicuous by their absence. The whole thing of it is that the fighter becomes leary of using the punch, for fear of break ing up his fighting tools and thus putting himself out of the business. * * « Vf ATTY M’CUE brought his train- ing retinue into the city yes terday noon and worked during the day at Nate Lewis’ Madison Street gymnasium with a considera ble crowd of local fans watching his work. But Matty’s big punch was carefully concealed somewhere in one of the three suitcases that he and his helpers brought with them, for it wasn’t in evidence during the day. Tlie punch is all there all right, but Matty isn’t going to unwrap it for a while. Matty has trained carefully for the battle to-day with Jeff O’Con nell, because he knows full well that Jeff Isn’t any cream-puff fighter and is apt to give him the merriest kind of a game. * * * «0*LY lately I have been gather- ing a few good ideas about this boxing game,” Matty told me yester day. “One of the things I learned best of all was that a man shouldn’t tax his hands the way 1 did in Mil waukee by having fights too frequent ly. I boxed on Saturday and again on Monday night, and this is the re sult.” And the poor boy held up a pair of swollen hands. “There isn't anything wrong with them excepting that they are sore. It won’t happen again, though, you can bet on that. A fighter’s chief stock in trade is the set of knuckles that he has. If they go bad the worst has happened to him. . f * • * <<r T*HE fact that I hit straight in- A stead of swinging gives me a lot of confidence in myself and makes me feel that my knuckles are going to stand the grind of many a hard battle before they go to the bad. I hook a good deai with my left hand, but I have acquired the knack of get ting the front of the knuckles and not the side of the hand into the tar get. So I don’t stand much chance of getting any broken bones.” Which shows that Matty is some wise little chap, who is doing a lot of figuring for himself in this game. * * » TF Matty gets away with Jeff Q’Con- A nell in the Racine scrap he will be given a chance at Milwaukee with Abe Attell.

Evers was chased off the field indicates that he is baiting in midseason form. Tf Lew Ritchie is a Giant Killer, said Giants are due for a long and happy life. Chief Bender is an old and decrepit mortal, but aside from that he appears to be in perfectly good health. The delay in the Stovall case leads one to suspect that Ban Johnson Is looking for a job on the Supreme bench. E. W. Lloyd broke the record for running fifty miles. He also escaped the alienists. The consensus of opinion Is that Lou Ritchie Is a game guy and a glutton for punishment. It is also said that he would be a good pitcher if he could pitch Having nothing else to do. Willie Ritchie will do battle on July 4. Mr G. Johnson, the aborigine heaver, has been thrown off by the Sox and hired by the Reds. If he keeps on play ing baseball he may one day work on a big league team. “Full many a gem of purest ray se rene,” etc. Here we have Ty Cobb working on a team like Detroit. New York baseball scribes are not the only ones who trade Hal Chase. Detroit and Cleveland scribes have taken up the pastime. Not that we have anything against motorcycling, but how would YOU like to be the official surgeon of the Ameri can League of Motorcycle Racing Clubs? Our memory goes back so far that we can recall the time when baseball play ers were wont to don the spangles. Up speaks Ty Cobb. “I believe.”^he says. “In treating an umpire like a friend.” This explains why Tyrus has so few friends. ODE TO DETROIT. (By F. Chance. 1 ) Farewell, fair bury! A fond far excell! I hate to leave thee now. ’Twere hard to find a town that owns As punk a team as thou. Sir Thomas Llpton was 63 years old the other day. If he lives 63 years more he may succed in dragging the New York Yatch Club into a race. Asclentfst offers $25,000 for Joe Man- dot’s carcass, demonstrating that even the medical fraternity considers Mr. Mandot a dead one. New York bursts into print with an •exciting snail race,” which, we take It, is somewhat like a sensational three- :ushion match. Reports from the interior of the earth ndicate that Charley Frank has paused for a few moments in his short cut to China. TEMPERAMENT.

They’re Betting Too Much on Tech-Georgia Series +•+ +•* +• + %*•*!• Gambling on College Ball Games is Serious Evil By Percy H. Wliiting T OO much money is being bet on the Georgia series. Betting isn’t a commendable practice at any time. It is especially to be de preciated when the wagering is on ball games. And It reaches its worK when the gambling j is done on col lege ball games. One thing that has helped the na tional game in keeping its proud po sition as the greatest of American sports is its fairness. It will keep on being square as long as it is not regularly used as a medium for gambling. When it is — good night baseball. College men ought not to bet on their ball games. Betting makes poor losers, quitters, knockers and various assorted pests. If your college team iy beaten, and you lose nothing on it, you are likely to take the defeat in sportsmanlike fashion. If it is beaten and you lose your money you are sore as a pup. It is particularly up to college au thorities to urge their students to stay away from betting. College men are reasonable, if they are approached right. Of course all of them could not be controlled, but a majority could. Stay off the betting It s poor bus iness. * • * VK7ALTER JOHNSON is consider- ** able of a ball pitcher, as all will admit. But the Southern League had a man once who was pretty good himself in the way of holding his opponents runless. This man was Moxie Manuel. Moxie once pitched 54 innings with out letting a run slip across. When this happened and how ha.‘ escaped our leaky memory. It did happen, though. It was probably more the result of good luck than anything else for. according to our belief, Moxie Man uel was never a great pitcher. • * * TV/IOX1E MANUEL has passed from real baseball. If Walter John son doesn’t watch out he will, before the allotted time, share the same fate. In past years Johnson has been a sensible pitcher. He ha." taken things easy when his team was ahead. He has performed the Mathewson stunt and worked only when he had to. A pitcher is foolish to force himself to the utmost unless he is in a hole. A brief exertion of his utmost ability helps, rather than hurte. a pitcher’s work. But let him extend himself to the utmost for any long period qf time and he injures his effectiveness. Johnson is a marvel—but he may experience a slump as a result of his heroic efforts to smash the record for consecutive runlese innings. \ FTER seventeen years of wonder- ** ful playing Napoleon Lajoie may realize his life-long ambition—that of playing with a pennant winner. Of course, it is only a remote chance. But it appears about the best chance Lajoie has ever had. For seventeen years Nap has been playing with good ball clubs. In 1905 the Cleveland club went out into the lead and was once 100 points to the good—but the Athletics won the pen nant. At another time the big Frenchman was on one of the great est slugging teams of all history, a team that numbered Ed Delehanty, Elmer Flick, Harry Wolverton, Ray Thomas and Eddie McFarland, as well as N. Lajoie. But they couldn’t cop. At another time lie played with a team which included Bradley, Tur ner, Hickman. Carr, Rossman, Stovall, Flick, Harry Bay, Lush, Jimmy Jack- son, Buelow, Bemis, Nig Clarke, Ad dle Joss, Bill Bernhard. Moore, Rhodes and Otto Hess—all in their prime Seldom has ruch a bunch of individual stars been gathered under one roof. Rut they couldn't cop. This year Cleveland ha** less stars and more ball club. It might possibly win a pennant. If it did N. Lajoie would be a help ful man in the infield—AND AT BAT.

Fox fanned ten batters and Weston fanned seven Spurlock, the little shortstop of Boys' High, played his usual game. He got two bits, a single and a home, which rolled to the center field fence This victory of Boys' High clinches its right to the prep championship and there is no possibility of the results of the 1hree remaining games in the league interfering with the standing of Boys’ High.

These are the remarks of Billy McCarney, manager of Luther Mc Carty. king of the Lemonwelghts, dropped as they passed through Chi cago on their way to a tank station in Canada, where they are to en gage in a commercial enterprise with one Palky.

He says we folks here are against fighters from the West, and then goes on to say that every real two-handed workman that, has drifted down onto the Atlantic sea board from the hinterland has been welcomed for all he was worth. But, he says, Jeffries was panned when he first appeared away from the Pacific coast. You bet he was! And this Is the first time anybody ever commented on the fact excepting to observe that he was not panned hard enough. The trouble is that with the long fights and other encouragement given the game on the farther coast most of our best fighters have been developed out there. Consequently the Impression has arisen out there that anything officially stamped and sent along must be the goods, even when they pick out a fly-flapping somnambulist like McCarty, who would he scared farther than Cal gary at the suggestion of a match with a real scrapper.
