Left Hook and Right Uppercut Being Developed by Firpo for Title Effort

PAMPAS BULL IS TRYING BARD 10 OVERCOME FAULTS Experts Fear He’ll Forget Under Fire, but Agree He’s 0, K. Now, By HENRY FARRELL. United Press Staff Correspondent ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Aug. 31. It is apparent from Luis Angel Firpo’s training work here that he has more of a left hand than he has permitted the public to believe. It was Weakness on his port side in all his previous fights that caused the experts to predict he would not go far with the two-handed Dempsey when they meet for the heavyweight championship in New York Sept. 14. Jabs and Hooks Firpo is showing a nice left in his sparring and he has acquired a hook to supplement the conventional jab. In training for Willard he showed the same thing, but-when he started to fight the former champion he apparently forgot he had anything hanging to his left shoulder. Perhaps he knew he could win with his right and chose to camouflage his other side. The South American does very little clubbing in his work now and he flashes a very good right uppercut. It was a blow of this type, landed by Jess Willard in his last stand at Toledo, that nearly finished Dempsey. Here’s the “Discount” Experts watching Firpo here discount his form, saying he will forget all his style when he is hurt and will revert back to his natural rough and unpolished method of warfare. Beyond doubt Firpo is in perfect oordition and in every respect he is a better man than the Willard from whom Dempsey won the title. His wind is sound, he is fast on. his feet for a big man and his morale is perfect Despite the fact that he has placed himself in the hands of trainers whose only knowledge of boxing has been acquired through motion pictures, Firpo is being brought along fine. He weighs 214 pounds now and j says he will fight at 210 or 212 pounds. He shows no symptoms of being or getting stale.

FISHING. Tricks, Freaks and Fancies of the Black Bass FINAL ARTICLE

By MORRIS ACKERMAN Nationally known authority on sports of field and stream mT was none other than the famous Dr. James A. Henshall. the father of black bass propj agation in America, who designated that splendid game member of our B lakes and streams as “the' game fish of the people.” This grand old man, wh<% by the way is living his last days amongst the scenes of his clnnatl, probmous designation mostly sought ACKERMAN after fightin’ fin. that the black bass ever would be held in such high esteem by so many hundreds of thousands of the Nation’s anglers. Found Everywhere No game fish is so well distributed in North America as the black bass. You find him in the lakes of California, in the waters of the parched lands of the southwest (Roosevelt dam. for instance), the icy waters of Maine, in the tepid Florida fluid, in Canada from Nova Scotia to Manitoba. He is lord of fishes in more than a score of states. Truly, he IS the game fish of the multitude. I don’t know exactly why this fish is called the “black” bass. There are two kinds—the small-mouth and the large-mouth. I have caught a good many of each and seldom indeed have I seen a black one. However, I have seen black ones—as black as night j —of both varieties. “Trout” in the South The large-mouth kind is the most numerous. It is called "trout” In the South, “green bass” in some places ; Its mouth extends beyond the center of the eye. On each side is a lateral stripe, or line. It is found in still water. It will stand a higher temperature than its small-mouth brother aiid, at times, It will take most any kind of bait you’ll serve, from a live frog or minnow to what a noted manufacturer of pork rind baits designates a “battleship plug." This fish, during the vacation season, lays in wait for its food under lily-pads, in t.he shade of fallen trees, around submerged stumps and along the edge of weed-beds. On bitin’ days, the general rule on most early mornings and .late afternoons in the summer, a will-directed, put-’em-where-they-live cast will turn many of them into your skillet. The smak-mouth is the bass family tackle-smasher. You get him in r i INDEPENDENT AND AMATEUR BALL The Eagles baseball team has disbatded for the season and the management asks that all players turn in their uniforms to Jacob Silverman at the Mammoth Store, 446 E. Washington St., at onca. All players are requested not to wear the Eagle uniforms in other games. The Turner-Beech Grove team will play Five Point* at Beech Grove Sunday. The following Sunday the Keystones ..in be the opposition. For games call Sim McElfresh. Drexel 2814. All Morris Street players are requested 'to meet tonight at the Turner gym at 7:30 sharp. Big League Liners Babe Ruth smacked a double and two singles in three times up and clubbed the Yanks into a victory over the Washington Senators, Thursday. The Giants gained a half game on the Reds and increased their lead to four full games by trimming the Robins Thursday. Cincy was idle. Doubles by Sewell and Stephenson in the thirteenth inning gave the Cleveland Indians a -victory over the White Sox. Ehmke allowed the Athletics six scattered hits Thursday and the Red Sox won. Urban Shocker marked up his twentieth victory of the season when he pitched ’he Browns to a win over the Tigers. The Cardinals knocked Morrison out of the box ana beat the Pirates. Ru>p Marquard won the decision over T fjny Ring in a pitchers’ battle the B.m b-a. th. Phil*

year, but in the Indianapolis race she will be up against some of the best steppers of the season. In addition to his appearance in this race Geers will be one of the main attractions at the fair on Tuesday when he will drive Sanardo, 1:59 Vi in -a special match pace against the veteran Johnny Quirk, 2:01 handled by Fred Egan.

fast water or in quiet lakes. In any event the water must be clean and at least medium cold. The mouth of this fish does not extend beyond the eye. He has no lateral stripe and when taken cn light tackle, either on bait, or fly rod. is a fighter from strike to sun stroke. It was the small-mouth black bass that made the famous “inch for inch and pound for pound the gamest fish that swims" slogan. Its predominating natural food is a minnow, crayflsh*or frog. Personally I haven’t used any live bast in my bass fishing for years, but, of course, that doesn’t matter. Either variety of black bass caught on a light bamboo rod, an eight or ninerpound test line and a sporty single-hook lure will keep a man from becoming conscious-stricken. Try it some time.

Aug. 31. —Ceremonies attending the coronation of anew world’s champion are expected ta be sagged at the Polo Grounds tonight when Johnny Wilson, the middleweight champion, meets Harry Greb, Philadelphia challenger.

Wilson, whatever his shortcomings as a boxer and battler, and they be granitoid, is a sedulous trainer and he has made himself as fine as ever he will he. Greb began as though he had until Christmas to prepare for the fight, hut in the last ten days has come into good form. As Greb couldn’t crack a glass bat ?n a cannonball, no knockout is aniclpated. The general notion around New York is that he will out-romp Wilson.

Nominate Your Candidates! For Times Contest to Select City’s Best Amateur (One or Two) * \ Player’s name Player’s name '. Name of team ' [..J, Name of manager Manager’s address and phone y. Fill out and mail or bring to Times Sports Department. Candidates must be 18 years old or more and strictly amateur. Players of dlrbanded teams may enter own names.

PLAYERS MAY SEND IN OWN NAMES IN CONTEST Amateurs on Disbanded Teams Will Have Equal Chance— College and High School Athletes Eligible, Owing to the fact that so many teams have disbanded for the season The Times thinks it advisable to allow players who come in the “disbanded class to turn in their own names in the contest being conducted to find the best amateur player in the city. In the case of the active teams, however, selection is left to the club managers.

As it is the aim of The Times to give every one a fair chance, there can be no argument if the unattached players are allowed to turn in their own names# The player who will go to Cleveland wil be selected by impartial judges so that letting down the bars will mean added work in choosing the player, but The Times is willin#to do this in order to give everyone an opportunity. Rules of Contest There are two rules—the contes'ant must be 18 years old or more and he must be an amateur. Both of these requirements will be thoroughly Investigated before the winner is chosen. The present plan is to have tryouts, possibly on Sunday mornings, so that there will be no interference with any regular games the players may want to participatae in. It might be said right here that high school and college coaches are overlooking a good bet if they do not put some of their athletes In the running. There were a number of good college prep players in this city last spring. The Usual Rumors As is always the case in such contests, there have, been various rumors floating around that the player was already picked, etc. Os course, any statement like that is *he merest, foolishnoss. Every man who enters this contest will get the fairest consideration and the final winner will be selected by real baseball authorities. Among the-' entries received today were. William Burnett, Herman Adam, M. F. Richardson, C. R. Weise, Verne Bane. Edward Stader and William TarVant. U. S. Sandige entered Thursday. The Indianapolis winner will have his expenses paid to Cleveland and expenses while there Sept. 24, 25, 26. The Vinner of the Cleveland tourney will he given a free trip to the world's series.
