>T\ yf°N TG ° M ERY, ALA., May 31.— jyl With the approach of the Southern Golf Tournament, which will be conducted this year over the links of the Montgomery Country Club, much interest is centered around the cups and trophies which will be awarded the winners of the various flights. Altogether, about twenty-five cups, trophies and med als will be given the successful con testants. Some of these cups are exceptionally handsome, particularly the championship cup, which is usual ly the most valuable golf trophy awarded at any tournament in the South. . This cup will bt given the player ’ who defeats all opponents in the first flight. The play In this flight will begin on Wednesday. June 4, and will continue through Saturday. The winner of this trophy will meet some of the flnert players in the South, some of whom will probably be for mer holders of the Southern cham pionship. The championship cup, therefore, will be of sufficient value to dignify the holder of the title, 4 as well as of sufficient beauty to make the best players strive to at tain the prize. Alabama Cup for Second. The second cup—that which will be awarded the champion in the sec ond flight—is styled the Alabama Cup, by reason of the fact that the tournament will be held in Alabama. This trophy, therefore, will commem orate the State in which it was won. In value, it will be next to the cham pionship cup. The prize for the winner in the third flight is called the Montgomery Cup. This cup is so called because it will commemorate the city in which it was won. just as the Alabama Cup will typify the State in which the v tournament was held. The Dexter Cup, to be awarded the ^winner of the fourth flight, was named in honor of Andrew Dexter, one of the principal founders of Montgomery, who emigrated from Massachusetts in 1817. The Dexter Cup will als>o commemorate the name of Montgomery’s principal business street. interest in LaFayette Cup. Much interest is attached to the LaFayette Cup, to be awarded the winner of the fifth flight. This trophy was named in honor of the Marquis de LaFayette, who visited Montgom ery in April. 1825, on his final tour of the United States. LaFayette was met by a prominent delegation and was publicly received by Governor L.-rael Pickens, on Capitol Hill. { This 1 cup was also named in com pliment to Ernest A. deFuniak. the president of the Montgomery Country Club, and the descendant of an aris tocratic French family. The Yancey Cup, the prize in the sixth flight, was named in honor of William Lowndes Yancey, one of the greatest leaders of the South in his time, and probably one of the most brilliant orators the South ever pro duced. In addition to these prizes, a trophy l will be awarded the runner up in every flight, as well as trophies to the winners in all the conflation flights. A handsome gold medal will be awarded the player who makes the lowest qualifying score, and a silver medal to the one making the second lowest qualifying score. .100 Golfers Are Expected. Indications are that in the neigh borhood of 300 golfers will visit Mont gomery to participate in the South ern tournament. Great players from all parts of the South will take part in the match, and it is expected that the event will prove the most success ful of its kind ever held In this part of the country. The course over which the tourna ment will be conducted is now in prime condition, the putting greens being probably as fine as any in the • world. The painstaking and inde fatigable efforts of John .VI. Inglis. the local golf expert, has been pro ductive of tlie most wonderful re sults, and visitors who have played over the local course during the past few weeks have declared it to be by far the best course in the South. Will Qualify on Tuesday. The qualifying round will be played on Tuesday, and from the scores re turned by the numerous players the flights will be made up. The cham pionship division will flrst contain 64 players, and from this division will be formed the championship, the sec ond, third and fourth flights, of 16 players each. Every round will con sist of 18 holes, match play, except the semi-finals in the championship, sec ond, third and fourth flights, and the finals in all flights, which will consist of 36 holes. < FRIDAY'S Montgomery, ab.

Griffith Sure to Grab Tom Long J[|||(jK RIDERS © Q © © O O © Crackers’ Outfielder “Going Up’ By W. S. Farnsworth. I T begins to look more and more every day as though one Clark Griffith up In Washington is going to fit one Thomas Long into his outg field combination next season. Said Thomas is wearing Cracker spangles just at present, but it is a known fact that Griffith has a large string attached to him and that this fall said string will be given a mighty jerk, thereby hoisting Thomas over our rooftops into the Capital. And if Thomas doesn’t make good with screaming success we will hang the old dope book in the closet and never get it out Tigain. Right now? Long looks like big league material. He is a natural hit ter. a fast man on the bases and a fielder who can cover an unlimited amount of territory. There seems to be just one little fault with fhis young gent. He picks up ground balls rapidly and accu rately, and when forced to heave to the plate hurls as true as a bullet. But he is slow getting the ball away. Bill Smith knows this. He worked on Long for fully twenty minutes be fore yestereve’s game got under way. He kept batting deep roll ers to Thomas and the latter kept pegging ’em hom<- to Joe Dunn. But every time that Tommy picked up the ball he would run in fully four steps before turning it loose. He must learn to throw without ball room tactics. This would never do in the big leagues. And Bill Smith is going to break Tommy of this fault if possi ble. And I believe he will, too. A good teacher and a good pupil never fall to make a success of anything they start. Take it from me that next fall and next summer, too, that when you care to write Tommy Long a letter, ad dress it care of the Washington base ball club. P OC C£ an’t play ball any more. Well, if Charley Ebbets or John Ganzel could have seen him swat that old pill in the sixth inning of the game with the Billlkens yesterday they would have probably kicked them selves In the slats for ever dropping him from their rosters. Whitey came to bat twice in that sixth spasm. First time up he slam med the Spalding to right for a pair of sacks and w ould have gone on for the circuit had not the ball bit the score board and bounded back into the fielder’s hand. Then he came up a few minutes later and picKled the same ball to center for a complete journey around the lines. * * * I T was about the first time this sea- 1 son that the Crackers walloped the ball hard and timely and in turn were given aid by a hurler. The score, 13 to 2. tells the tale. Young Mr. Dent was the stingy kid- do for fair. Six hits were all that he would allow Johnny Dobbs’ sluggers leading cloutsmiths at present in J Kavanaugh’s organization. Three of these clouts came in the fourth ses sion and netted 4he visitors their on ly tallies. One hit was made off his delivery in the second, one in the fourth and the Anal one in the fifth. Barring a base on balls in the seventh, no Bllliken put his No. 9’s- on Joe Agler’s sack after the fifth inning. D ENT had a ton of stuff yesterday. His curve ball broke immensely while his fast one had a regular a la Johnson hop. He showed perfect judgment In outguessing the opposi tion. and when there were men on NO 0000 TILL TO GET FILL 1 s the fight game a man who is knocked out is “gone.” In base-, ball a player w ho is “beaned” w ith a good swift one is usually “plate shy” for the rest of his career. They never come back. An odd thing about the motorcycle racing game on board tracks—the sort that will be on tap at the Motor- dome next Friday night—is that a rider is never much good until he has been knocked cold once and has corbie to life again. The riders call it “getting your sec ond courage.” and they say that un til a man gets it he is not likely to become a top-notcher. “What they have to do.” said one of the riders in speaking of it yes terday. “is to get a spill and find out it does not kill them. They learn that it usually means picking up a few splinters and maybe smashing an arm or leg. After they find this out it is all right. If they get killed in learning, why, that’s their risk.” Riders who haven’t got their “sec ond courage" are divided into those who are still a bit afraid and those who aren't sufficiently afraid. An example of the latter class is Henry Lewis, the circus-rider-vaude- ville-star-motorcycle-cop, who will figure in Friday’s races. Never on a board track has Lewis had a tum ble. As he is absolutely without fear, he has only his "first courage,” and it is a grand article. The only trouble is that he is too courageous for com- the bases he displayed the fact that j fort He rides up and down the track he can whip ’em across with little orias a fly runs up a sheer wall, he hits no windup. But Dent is a hurler who needs plenty of work. He improved as the game rode on and at the finish look ed as though the first eight innings had simply been a “prep” for him. Said Dent’s display found Bill Smith wearing a smile from ear to ear this morning. And it is quite a. distance from jne of Bill’s listen ers to the other. BASEBALL SUMMARIES SOUTHERN LEAGUE.

The riders say he needs a spill to acquire his “second courage,” which means in his case a little caution. ' Every other regular rider at the track has had his spills and carries the scars to show for it. All have acquired their ‘second courage” and are brav^ to a degree, without being foolhardy. Before long new riders will be breaking in. The game is peculiarly fascinating to the speed bugs, and the city which developed so many great bicycle riders Is not likely to over look the chance of sending some mo torcyclists out in a chase for high speed and fame. Already Manager Hudson has had a lot of applications from local riders who want to try the track, and a novice race is a possi bility in the near future. When the novices begin to break in there are sure to be many who lack their sec ond courage. They will ,be game enough to try anything once, but al ways lurking in the back of their hc*ads will be the fear of a spill and Us outcome. Each of these men will need one spill. This will either retire them from the game or give them their- “second courage.” When they get it they are ready for anything. Sporting Food »By GEORG* E PH AIR™- CONSISTENCY.

S ax'FRANCISCO, May 31.—While Willie Ritchie's triumphal tour of the footlight belt was not entire ly free from annoyance, he must ad mit that he was not pestered with challenges from his brother light weights. The critics took a fling at him occasionally, but the boyd of his ( lass kept unusually distant. Whether this was in defense to the argument that a victor is entitled to all the spoils he can harvest, or was the result of the, tact exercised by Manager Billy Nolan may never be known. In the little fight talk that was indulged in while Ritchie was working the theatrical circuit Nolan contrived to mention every promi nent lightweight a.s a possible oppo nent for Ritchie when ring activities were to be resumed. * * * IT is just possible that this judi- * cious application of salve made each of the 133-pounders feel that his chances of getting the next crack at the championship would be im proved if h«- refrained from baiting the title holder. Now that Joe Rivers has been nam ed as Ritchie’s next opponent it is oifferent. Back in New York Leach (’loss is claiming that Ritchie prom ised him the flrst bout and is hinting that it is fear of the Cross punch that has made Willie go back on his word. Up in Portland Bud Anderson is get ting ready to challenge Ritchie night ly from the stage of the theater at which Anderson is showing. Bud. through his manager, Dick Donald, says he has $5,000 to support his defi, and that if Ritchie considers this too paltry a sum for a side bet Ritchie will be accommodated with a wager of double that amount. * * * T HIS may have an irritating effect on Ritchie, who is appearing at another Portland theater, but the worst is yet to come. Battling Nel son is due in Portland within a day or two. and the Battler has for months been longing to get close enough to Ritchie to dare him to fight. Nelson says he may have doubts occasionally as to how he would fare with some of the vigorous young lightweights who have sprung up in recent times, but that alh he needs to prove himself a better boxer than Ritchie is the opportunity. From which it would appear that Ritchie will scarcely be able to com plain that he spent a dull week in Portland. TINKER AND HERRMANN OPEN WAR ON MURPHY CINCINNATI. May 31 —Garry Herrmann, president of the Cincin nati baseball club, and Manager Joe Tinker yesterday opened fire on Charles W. Murphy, boss of the Cube, and let go double barrels. The at tack was based on Murphy’s attempt to get some of the Reds in exchange for men he calls Cub youngsters and which the Cincinnati crowd declare are practically old-timers. In an In terview here Joe Tinker said: ^suppose.” remarked Tinker, “that Murphy includes in the list of his youngsters he would trade. A1 Brid ged, Tommy Leach, Otis Clymer and Roger Bresnahan. Murphy came to Mr. Herrmann a short time ago and tried to get one of our best pitchers and $5,000 for Good, an outfielder, who i is w.arming the Cub bench. We want good men in trading. We. of course, laughed at the proposition. I still think we will beat out the Cubs. “Murphy has crippled his ball club and he cannot make it play hall by issiyng claims or knocking President Herrmann and his former players.” President Herrmann agreed with every word of the statement of Man ager Tinker.
