He and Jones, who acted as his manager during Wolgast's successful ring days, have separated—not that there is any trouble between them, but Ad feels he needs no manager now that he is no longer the title holder. Ad said to-day: 'Tnll! 1 win the championship back, I will be able to attend to all my matchmaking myself.

Allis Stood Pacs Well. At one time In the afternoon, after Evans had won the sixth and seventh holes, It looked ns if the champion might at least produce a tight finish, hut Allla never cracked under the strain and kept on the even tenor of his way. A stiff wind from the northeast was sweeping the course when the cham pion and his opponent teed off Evans had the honor and hooked his drive close to a trap Allis pitched his see'- ond 20 feet from the cup and holed h1s put Evan*, whose second was t<> the right of the pin, took one more. Allis sliced n1s drive for the second hole into a bush and chopped out short, but to offset this mistake Evans, who had driven 260 yards, pitched his second into the hunker guarding the green, and the result was a half In five. Both were on the third screen In two. Allis being 30 feet short and Evans 15 feet to the right of the pin. They halved in 4. Allis hooked his next drive to the rough. but his rer- ond Jumped the bunker guarding the preen and ran to 20 feet from the hole. Evans took three to reach the preen and ran his approach close to the htfle. Allis Makes Great 8Hot. Allis stymied himself on his third and then made one of the most re markable shots of the match Evans' hall was too close to permit of a Jump ahot. and the boy played a follow bil liard shot, hi?* hall knocking Evans’ ball a little to the side of the cup and following in. giving him the hole 4-5 and putting him 2 up. The home hole was won by Allis. 5-6. Allla. after hooking his drive, made a fine second, short of the creek. Allis was 3 up at the Interval. A good stnrt In the afternoon meant a lot to Evans, hut his chances went tobogganing when Allis won the first 3 hOIM, and from that point on it was only a question If the chunky little Milwaukeean could keep himself a- concert pitch, as with a lead of six holes he could claim membership In the “I should worry" class. 6 EE SHRIMP FLYNN FINED FIFTEEN TkdOSAND DOLLARS MD vnotfr LET me plat no more- HE vnOnT EV)£N LET ME INTO THE 6AME ‘LESS I PAT “AMISSION AND I Ai^tgoT NO PENNY TOO! & /// \ in 1 ! .itt 3c6m7?HI CA06HTME WITH THE <M0D$-9He SEEN TME BALL.

B Y way of giving our heroes a lift on every possible turn of fortune’s wheel during the present hectic little ronil trip, It rained yesterday in Montgomery. Diagnosis of this seemingly simple weather note informs us (1) that two games will be played this afternoon, unless (2) It rains some more; which means (3) that the two-ply grapple probably will end in a dog-fall, so that (4) the series will have to be decided to-morrow. Assuming it. doesn't keep on raining. Most double-headers are split. It is hard for a good club to win two games in one afternoon. It is nearly as hard for a decently poor club to lose two. So it is rather unlikely that the pres ent series will be as decisive as it looked before the bottom fell out. • • • NAMING NO NAMES.

For the present season, that is. l The Vols are more than a dozen games behind the leaders, and the day of miracles Is popularly reported to be past. And yet the wires buzz with ru mors and well-grounded reports of deafc by which one William Schwartz Is adding to the power of his pay roll. and. incidentally, to the tax upon the exchequer. The late?*t noise sounds like Mel ville Brannon, of the spectacular col lege brand of slab-worker, and the idea is that Schwartz has snared him away from J Dobbs and that the Ten nessee Industrialist student soon will Inhabit a Nashville uniform. Pitcher Boland, of the recently ex ploded Interstate League, has been turned over to the Nashville club, and is expected to succeed Jack Brackenridge. Dave Bunting, from the name circuit, also is expected to Join the rookies, but probably won't play this season.

It is known that other clubs are sweet on Gibby. and it is possible that he may be destined to travel with Detroit in 1914, but Hirsig is confi dent he ha«* the inside rail, and be lieves he will keep his pet receiver. While in Detroit, Hirsig will look over the books for new material avail able for his club next year.

N EW ORLEANS is now safely es tablished on the boxing map as a safe and sane center in which twenty-round contests may be held At least this is the statement of Dominick J. Tortorich, the Jimmy ColTroth of the South, who has firm ly put the game back on a standing akin to the conditions that prevailed there in the good old long ago. New Orleans, be lt remembered, had some of the most famous battles of ring history decided in its environs, and threatens now to take just as promi nent a place as It got when John L. Sullivan and Jim Ccrbett, Bob Fitz simmons and'Jack Dempsey, Jack McAuliffe and Billy Myer, Fitzsim mons and Jim Hall and Dan Creedon and others of that class were bat tling for real titles. * • * DY sheer force of character and through demonstration that the boxing game can be kept free from scandal, /ind that it does not verge Into the old class of "prize fighting,” Tortorich has carried matters along until he has won over almost every executive in Louisiana to his way of thinking, and it is» not beMeved that there will be any further oppo- i sition to Dorn's plan of holding | twenty-round contests from now until next Spring. And Dom believes he will be able to show all of the box ers that lt will be strictly to their interests to pay some attention to the nice offers that he is going to make to them. • * • ALONG with Tom McCarey, Tor- torich has been stung by the belt bee. and now has a well-develop ed case of trophy fever. One week from next Sunday afternoon, Domi nick will present hie first belt to the boxers. On that day he will have Wildcat Ferns, of Kansas City, and Young Denny, of New Orleans, in the first elimination test for the new wel terweight championship that he pro poses running during the present summer and coming fall. These boys battled ten rounds there July 4, and Ferns was awarded a verdict that started a near-riot among the spec tators, many believing that Denny, the home boy. should have been awarded the victory. They are some partisans down that ^ay. To settle the question. Tortorich nailed them at once for a contest over the long route. MOBILE SENDS KELLY BACK.
