"search Mobs for weapons" He Says.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Less than a week ago you printed an
article about the strike troubles of the
laborers and dlggers, which included the
stabbing OF several policemen and wound
ing of a police captain with Il baseball
bat. All through the difficulty 1t has ap
peared to your layman correspondent that
the police rave been most considerable OF
the strikers and have been their best
friends, in fact.
For the strikers to turn on these min
listers of the law was a mistake which
will prove very costly to them. When
the police attempt to break up a mob
which eongregates on a public thorough
fare they are simply doing their duty.
In interfering with the police while doing
their duty, to say nothing of attacking
them with knives, is the height of I'M
citizenship, and the man who would DO
such a thing should not only be disfran
chised, but deported.
1t has been very evident during the
labor trouble that the Italian contingent,
which dominates the strike, has been
casting very grave reflections upon their
law-abiding countrymen. Nearly all or
the marchers carry weapons. Knives,
clubs and stilettoes appear frequently
during any disturbance.
In view of the extraordinary circum-
stances the police should take more dras
tic measures to prevent trouble than is
necessary. Whenever the strikers gather
In mobs the police should temporarily
place them under arrest and make a per
sonal search of every one of them.
Each striker or sympathizer found car
rying q knife, revolver or any other
weapon should be arrested and prose
cuted for carrying concealed weapons
That's one solution of the stabbing
troubles. If carried out, this plan would
place nearly every member of the union
In Jail.
This is not the plant of an enemy to
unions. The writer Is heartily in favor
of workingmen's unions. but unalterab'y
opposed to violence. In America they
should act as Americans and not stab our

TODAY IN HISTORv


aloy ID 1911, Commodore Rodgers,
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1912-12-04
BY W. S. Farnsworth,

w THEN Clarence English DELHI
w erately swung low, vicious
right hand into Frank Whit
ney's groin last night the boxing
game in Atlanta was given another
black eye. 1t is about time that
something was done to keep the
game clean here. If Atlanta fans
can't be given a run for their mon
ey, it's time that the game was
closed up tight. There have been
altogether too many hunks.
believe that the Dixie Athletic
club is trying to stage good bouts,
but they don't know the game.
Henry Norton, the president of the
club, an Atlanta business man, is
the hacker of the organization. He
is verify doing the best he can. But
until he can get a competent match
maker he Is going to have trouble.
The present matchmaker is a
square, hustling young man, but he
hasn't had the necessary expe-
rience.
THE matchmaker of the club
came to me the day before he
signed English and Whitney, and
asked what thought of a handicap
match between the pair. I was OPP
posed to the handicap part of it,
and told the matchmaker that there
never was a handicap fight that
didn't turn out bad. But he i'm
mediately went ahead and adver-
tised the bout, English must stop
Whitney to win"
And as a result English, realiz-
ing that he couldn't stop Whitney,
brought up a low right hand that
was one of the rankest foul blows
ever struck.
The punch cost English the
chance of ever fighting here again.
THE fight lasted into the middle
of the fifth round English
fought like a demon for four rounds,
but Whitney was there" simply
to stick out the ten rounds. And
Frank can't be blamed for not fight
ing back. If he had been fighting
for points, 1 am sure he would
have stood up and would have
taken a chance. Nobody ever ac-
cused Frank of not giving his best.
But Whitney just didn't have to
take a chance. Four times he
caught English wide open and shot
a right to the head. But. while the
blows shook Clarence up bit, he
came back in jiffy each time and
fought hard and fast.
1t was English's fight by mile
up to the time of the foul. But he
never could have stopped Whitney
inside of ten rounds, and Clar-
ence knew this better than any
other man in the house
THE matchmaker of the club tip
L ped me off before the fight that
English tried to frame" with

Blow Ends Farce In 9Th Round

Whitney. but Frank wouldn't stand
for it. Here's his story:
English got Whitney on the
phone and tried to get Frank to
frame with him. But Frank told
him there was nothing doing. Then
English began swearing over the
phone. The telephone operator
made a complaint against English,
and he was arrested
And His honor soaked Clar-
ence $25 for using them cuss words, .
All of which means that English
didn't get more than carfare for
his work of last evening.
1T was announced from the ring
that Carl Morris and All Kubiak
would probably be the next pair to
meet in the ring here. Kubiak
might last the ten rounds with the
Oklahoma giant, but he was mixed
up in shady fight here with Jum-
DO Wells. To be sure, Wells quit.
and Kubiak may never have had a
thing to do with 1t. But local fans
will never forget that fiasco.
AS for Norris, it is up to the club
to get a real topnotcher to battle
him or not stage him at all 1t
seems to me that after the two
boomers that Morris has been in
the club would be willing to pass
him up.
Morris is altogether too good for
thlrd-raters. If the club wants to
show Morris again, let it get
Kennedy, Stewart, McCarty or
Flynn for him. Flynn and Nc
Carly probably would demand too
much money to come here. but
Stewart and Kennedy, both the
equals of Morris, could be secured
reasonably.

ZIMMERMAN WAS
MAN WHO KEPT
CUBS IN HUNT
By Sam Crane.

TN looking over the official battins
averages of the National league
New York can swell with pride
because Of the fact that a native of the
big burg "Heinie" Zimmerman, the ia
vorite son of the Bronx tops the list
with the highest percentage of .372,
A favorite Giant too, John (Tortesl
Meyers, the famous Indian catcher, col
legian, literary man. thespian, CONVEX
sationalist, raconteur and a gentleman
of all around versatile parts in gen
eral, outside of his swatting ability, is
second only to the best batter for the
Chief has the average Of .35S.
Captain Larry Doyle, Of the Giants
and pinch Hitter" Harry Mccormick
also of the champions are tied for sixth
place, each with the highly commenda-
BILE average of 1873, which shows, as
any school boy knows, that they both
made safe hits on an average of every
third time at bat.
Battle a Close One.
The battle for the batting supremacy
between Zimmerman and Meyers was
hot one. The Chief led for a long while,
having a phenomenal average in the
early months of the season. The Chief
batted for a while over 500 and was
considered so dangerous with his big
war club that it became the custom for
opposing pitchers to pass him purpose
ly when there were runners on bases.
This was a serious handicap to the
Indian, and as he received the inten
tional skulls" when he was in his best
batting stride, it no doubt beat him out
of the leadership, although he does not
himself make that claim. He is too
good a sportsman for that. thinner
man was not passed purposely nearly
as often as was Meyers, as the Cubs
were not dangerous until later in the
season, about the latter part of July.
Zimmerman was at bat 557 times and
Meyers 81. The fact that Zimmerman
had the more chances adds to the bril-
liancy of his great feat rather than
diminishing it.
To the Bronx boy belongs most Of the
credit for the Cubs grand fight and
sensational stern chase after the Gil
ants. Lavender, Cheney and Richie did
splendid pitching, of course, but 1t was
Zimmerman punch" that carried the
winning weight and put the Cubs in
the race when they were thought to be
hopelessly out of it.
Leads in Two Baggers.
Zimmerman also led in two base hits,
with Al, and in home runs, with IA to
his credit. He made just as many
three baggers as he did circuit clouts'
He used a long and very small handled
bat and took a long but most vicious
swing at the ball and with a firm toe
hold that gave him tremendous power
behind his swings. He "stung" the bal
terrifically hard and 1t was said of his
opposing outfielders that they needed
shinguards when facing his wicked
drives that scorched the turf.
