.URAINE WILLING To
MEET MINER" KEYSER
Capital Fighter Insists that Cumber-
land Boy Make Weight.

Manager Joe oliveri, of the Maryland
Athletic and Social Club, Is making fran
tic efforts to match Mike Uraine, the
local scrapper, with Fay Keyser, OF
Cumberland, Md. Prior to Thursday
nights bouts at the Ardmore club, Key.
ser issued a challenge to the National
Capital fighter, but 1t seems that Uralne
insists on the Cumberland miner making
l5s pounds at 6 o'clock on the night OF
the fight and that he post $50 as forfeit
the $50 to go as a side bet.
Oliveri states that Uraine is more than
anxious to take on the upstate mixer
but that Keyser must make the weight
and post his money to guarantee his ap-
pearance before he will enter into any
negotiations for a match.
One of the features of the Maryland
clubs opening night program overlooked
by the majority of those present was
the able manner in which Danny Lewis
refereed the bout between Kid Sheeler
and Tom Marvin. Lewis repeatedly in
breaking the men from a clinch exposed
himself to a wild blow that perhaps
would have laid him low had it came
in contact with vulnerable spot. Lewis
work stood out very prominently and
the club management would have to SO
long way before picking another third
man in the ring who can acquit himself
so creditably.

RALPH GREENLEAf TO
APPEAR in CAPITAL
To Give Exhibitions at Cafritz's Grand
Central Parlors.

New York, Nov. LIE. Ralph Green
leaf. the n-year-old pocket billiard won
der and aspirant for the worlds title. to-
day signed a contract TO appear at Morris
Cafritz's Grand Central pariors, In WASH
ington. ID. c.. for three days the latter
part Of this month. Greenleaf. during his
stay In Washington. Is scheduled to meet
the National Capitals best cueists, IN
both afternoon and evening exhibitions.
Lovers Of the pocket billiard game IN
the National Capital are to be treated
TO a rare exhibition the latter part Of this
month when Ralph Greenleaf the 17-year-
Cld pocket billiardist. from Monmouth,
III, makes his appearance at the Grand
Central pariors.
Morris Cafritz, manager of the Grand
Central, when seen last night stated that
he had succeeded in securing Greenleaf
for exhibition matches at his parlors only
after considerable difficulty. as the boy
wizard Is practically booked solid for the
rext two months. Cafritz is to be con-
graduated upon bringing such a star as
young Greenieaf to this city. as the visits
of those who are rated high in the pocket
billiard game to the National Capital are
few and far between. The last player
of any note to make his appearance here
was Louis Kreuter, another Juvenile won
der who appeared at Cafritz's last win

more than average ability II can hardly
be said that he classes with Greenleaf.
\ good idea of Greenleaf's ability can
best be Cleaned from Jack Keigh's story
in the Billiard Magazine. Keigh is recog-
niZed as one OF the greatest judges of cue
play in the world, and his comment Is
well worth reading. Keigh says: al
though he was beaten by Tabersky, the
opinion prevails that Greenleaf will even
tually be the champion IL he sticks to
the game. There are many who believe
it Is better that the boy lost. They con-
tend this defeat will do him more good
than IL he had won. They argue It will
tend to make him more careful. At times
in the three-nights' play he showed q
tendency to become careless. For the
most part, however, he showed that he Is
a wonderful Judge of speed and has a
keen eve. Time and again he made cut
shots that appeared impossible. and made
them cleanly so that the object ball never
touched the jaws of the pocket as 1t
nestled out of sight. Time and again the
champion eletced to play him safe, but
there appeared to be no safety with
Greenleaf p: the table,
Mr.. Crafritz stated last night that 1t
was his intention of pitting the best
pocket GUESTS in the city against Green
leaf when he made his appearance here
and named among others Charlie Bartel-
mes and Walter Wallace. two local play
ers whom he would try to get to try
conclusions with the boy wonder.
In all likelihood Cafritz, before making
his final selection of local players to meet
Greenleaf. may run an elimination tour
nament in order that only the best play
ers will be matched against the boy
marvel.

YOUNG AMERICA AND TRAPSHOOTING
By George Peck

1t Is with keenest delight that the
grown-ups in the trapshootine game
see the youngsters OF Is years and
thereabouts, embracing the sport and
being encouraged by their parents.
And the results are nothing short of
wonderful as will be noted from pub
lished scores which appear almost
daily in papers in different parts of
the country
There is something lacking in the
man who is not thrilled with pride
when his young hopeful faces the
trap and beats his dad So far. the re-
turns show no one who Is not Just
about as tickled as though he had
landed the Grand American Handicap.
1t Is just such encouragement which
every trapshooting dad should bestow
upon his boy, presumlng, of course,
that the lad is one or those whole

America so pardonably boasts. II he

like the sport. but happily. the sport

condition of manliness.
Therefore, Brother Shooter. lool,
