Former Champ.
RACINE. Wis, May 14.-Pete Her

RACINE, Wis, May 14.-Pete Her
man, claimant to the bantamweight
championship, won from Johnny
Coulon in the third round of their
scheduled ten-round bout here to-
night when the latters manager threw
a towel into the ring after Coulon had
been knocked down for a count OF
nine.
Coulon had regained his feet but
seemingly was unable to continue the
fight. He was assisted to his corner
and his manager asserted that he had
suffered a fractured kneecaD in tho
fall Later he was carried from the
ring.
The knockdown resulted from a
short, left jab to the jaw just as the
boxers came out of clinch. Up to this
time there had been little actual fight
ing, both men relying largely on foot
work. Coulon, however, had landed a
few Sght blows, but with no apparent
effect on his opponent.
The weights as announced at the
ringside gave Herman an advantage
of nine pounds.

Strict Observance of Trapshooting
Rules of Etiquet Will Be Necessary

put your companion at a disad
vantage, just because he happened to
be No. in the squad while you oc
cupied an earlier position? This point
Is now so well recognized that II Is
the exception, and not the rule, at
important tournaments to see single
member of a squad leave his position
until the last shot has been fired.
The Time to Move.
Another point should be mentioned,
namely, the proper time to move
from one position to the next. No, 1
In the squad, of course, is always the
first move. because he is the first TO
finish the number allotted to any one
position. Suppose II is l5-target
event-it will be his turn to move
when he has shot at his third target.
The question is: When should be
start to change to the next position?
The proper thing to do to avoid
possibility of disturbing the shooter
whose position he will occupy next is
to wait until his neighbor has shot
before even commencing to change.
No should wait until No. has shot
and so on. The only exception is
whcn you are at No. 5 position, and
you have to get around to No.
stand for your next shot. In such a
case. and as you cannot possibly
bother the man at No /, whose turn
1t is to shoot next II is best to start
for the No. l position Immediately
after you have shot at your target
and elected the empty shell.
Never load your gun before you
move from No. 5 to No. |. II you
have not noticed that 1t was time to
move. and have put n shell in your
gun, open the gun and take out the
shell before leaving the score or
turning around from II. Accidents
will happen from very slight causes,
and you never can tell what may
happen II you disregard this rule.
which never should be broken.
There has never been an accident at
n trapshooting tournament. and II
you are always careful there never
will be one.

With two or three hundred sports
as they will be during the annual
state shoot which starts here today,
every minutes time must be con-
served and II will enable the tourna-
ment to move off in splendid shape If
the general rules of trapshooting
etiquet are observed.
One of the most important OF these
is promptness at the score. Don't
keep the other members of your
squad waiting while you hunt for
your gun. shells, etc, or while you
finish conversation. No one who
is keen to shoot likes TO be kept wait
ing. and you start your squad off In
bad shape II you annoy them by dlla-
toriness Find out when you are
likely to be called to the score. what
squad you are in, and be on hand
the first up to the score, II possible.
so as to set the others good example.
Never TaIk While Shooting.
Don't talk with members of your
squad. or with outsiders. while you
are shooting. II may not dlsconcert
you faltho II will do sooner or later),
but II will surely take the attention
OF some member or members of the
squad from the work in hand, and
goose eggs will appear on the score
sheet.
There Is another point to which at
tention must be called, and that is
the too frequent habit OF shooters,
members of the same squad. leaving
the score before the last member OF
that squad has fired at his last target.
Setting aside the dscourtesy OF show
ing his so plainly how little you care,
nothing can be more disconcerting
especially to a beginner, than to have
man after man OF his squad fire at
their last targets. and then walk away
from the score leaving him standing
alone giving an exhibition OF how to
break ones last target 1t Is just as
easy to miss the last target as II is the
first one, and the mind OF the shooter
must be concentrated on his work
Just as keenly. is 1t fair. therefore. to

KIRK TO WORK OUT
AT GRAND THEATER
Starts Boxing Today With Roy
Moore; Read Does Eight
Miles on Road.

Showing not "A mark from his ten
round battle with Fighting Thorpe at
Joplin last Friday night, Sailor Kirk
arrived in Tulsa yesterday to condi-
tion himself for his 15-round setto
with Australian Jack Read at the
Midway Athletic club next Monday
night.
With Kirk it is n question of keep
ing in condition, not getting into
shape, for he already is down to the
133-pound requirement and in excel
lent physical condition. Speed is
what he wants to improve and so has
arranged to box with Roy Moore, Pa
cific coast bantamweight champion,
who arrived in Tulsa yesterday also.
They will work out this afternoon at
the Grand theater at o'clock and
their training quarters will be open
to the public.
Kirk Busy Boy.
Kirk has been a busy boy during
the last few months. Since beating
Otto Wallace in oklahoma city he
has been thru ten battles in Denver
and Joplin. out in Denver he won
twice from Joe Flynn, beat Matty
McCue, Pete Jensen and Otto Wal
lace again, drew with Gilbert Gallant
and lost to Jimmie Hanlon. In Jop-
lin he fought two 15-round node
cision bouts with Harvey Thorpe, on
the result OF which the newspapers
differed.
In addition to showing Kirk some
speed. Moore can stand considerable
rough work. without doubt he Is the
hardest hitting bantam in the lime
light today and he can take some stiff
ones in return.
Moore Gets Wires Crossed.
Moore came to Tulsa thru mistake.
The Midway Athletic club had been
negotiating with him for match with
Nate Jackson for next Monday night,
but at the time OF the exchange OF
kilograms, Moore was about to close
for a tilt with Johnny Ertle In Min
neapolis. Therefore the Midway set
the Jackson Moore feature for June
Is. In the meantime, another Tulsa
promoter wired Moore, asking him If
he could come on and tackle Joe Leo
pold here next Friday night, and
thinking this was merely change In
the original plans to enable him to
box here and still meet Ertle on May
n, Moore accepted. 1t was not until
ne nuu dIilNtu III iulsnh yNoN'' N'S ''''N'
had posted an appearance forfeit that
he discovered his mistake.
Forfeits Appearance Money.
"Its sure tough luck to get your
wires crossed that way" Moore said
last night, "but ! always want to do
the right thing so ] am going to lose
my forfeit and stick to the club with
which / first accepted terms
Moore will not be idle. however, un-
til the time for him to meet Jackson
here. He has accepted "A date In OK
lahoma City for May 30 and early next
month goes to Des Moines for re-
turn bout with Bobbie Burns, whom
he defeated there few nights ago.
From Des Moines he probably will go
to Minneapolis for a bout with
j Johnny Ertle. He expects. conflrma-
ton of the date within the next day
or two.
Jacy Read put in a hard day yes
terday. AS the first step toward TAX
ing off the five pounds excess weight
he is carrying, he took an eight-mile
turn on the road and established
careful diet. He does not anticipate
any trouble making the required
weight. He will begin boxing today
or tomorrow.
