Sudden Service" Now e Serving Motorists

Fred V. Thelen, manager of Sudden Service" and tire and accessory depart ment of the Birmingham Motor company, stated yesterday that from the number of calls registered this month it seems that they will almost double their calls from motor car owners. Everyone who has tried the big concern has from actual ex- perience all the evidence needed to prove that the tire mishaps are not as bad as they think.
 Blowouts and worn out tubes are the things with which motorists must con- tend. The large number of service wag- ons are always ready to answer any emergency call, with an experienced tire changer always willing to serve you properly. MT. Thelen says that they are sparing no expense in making their tire service appeal to the motorist who is in a hurry, and where it is necessary for experienced people to look after their needs.

Was Willard Really Game,
 Query Of Many Ring Fans
Fight Enthusiasts Say Jess Wasn't Conscious of Pain. Was Semi-Insensible to Feeling-Fight Compared
 to the Morrs-Flynn Battle in New York
By JAMES J. CoRBETT

weighed about 175. Morris was SIX feet four and beamed around 24O. But what a stunning shock was dealt out
 MORRIS SLAUGHTERED
 Flynn hit Morris seemingly a thou sand times. The giant so widely her aided as a great fighter was utterly devoid of defense Three rounds hadn't elapsed before Morris was a bleeding bulk. His eyes were almost closed teeth were knocked out; his lips and his face were a mass of gashes; blood .streamed down onto his body. And he staggered around the ring like drunken man.
 Every swing of Flynn reached it's mark-and every blow made Morris a bloodier more ghastly spectacle. Long before the fifth round came along the crowd shrieked to the referee to "stop it-stop it." But Morris, feebIy, yet unmistakably motioned them to si- lence; signaled that he was going to fight on.
 And he did--for the 10 full rounds No living man in that crowd would have taken the short end of 100 to II bet after the fifth round ended that Morris would go the full route. Yet he did-with Flynn trying desperately in the closing rounds to finish him. As the final gong banged Morris practi- cally collapsed--but not until then.
 That was gameness of the super lative variety" ring enthusiasts assert. Morris was conscious during every min ute of those ten rounds-fully sensible to the terrible pain. But he wouldn't quit because he v&s game, because he had courage-a greater amount of courage than was ever shown in any fight in New York state CT, perhaps, anywhers Fin the world"

Chicago, August 2s.-Chicago made two vicious attacks against Shawkey today and easily defeated New York, 10 to 2, in the first game of the series Cicotte was in fine form and would have shut out the visitors if he had not eased up in the seventh inning when Pipp hit one into the right field bleach Fers for home run and Lewis knecked one to center, which bounded into the bleachers for a home run. giving the visitors their only runs of the game.

The first game was one of wasted eff fort on the part of tbe Crackers, about 'steen men being left on bases during the nine innings. Up and until the eighth frame the Crackers had garnered nine bingles off the delivery of Coffindaffer, amounting to but one run, while the sum of the Barons' efforts was but one bin- gle and tally
 The locals wasted hit after hit, and all the breaks seemed to be going into the hands of the visitors.
 Daniel Boone, doing the pitching for the Crackers, twirled 8 magnificent game, giving up only two hits, one of which was of the infield variety. Luck seemed. to be with the Barons however, and they succeeded in scoring their lone run on one measly hjt and an error.
 Boone should never have beenf in dan ger throughout the game, but when pitchers teammates can't produce hits when hits mean runs said twirler is helpless.
 It's a mystery now Coffindaffer, on the mound for the Barons. got by as well as he did for eight innings. He vas punctured for nine solid smacks. which accounted for but one run. But with men on bases he was as imper- turbable as the Sphinx. He seemed to have a lot of stuff on the ball, includ- ing a lack of control.

by the Crackers in the very firstNn,. ming.
 The play came about thusly: Me- Donald and Summa both got infield hits to start it off. Stevenson, the next man up, lined to Damrau. The third baseman threw 10 Galloway dou- bling Mcdonald The shortstop threw to Griffin to catch .Summa and the ball was low and went between Ivy's legs. Summa. seeing that the ball had got ten away from Griffin, beat it back to second without touching first base Higgins. who had retrieved the ball. noted this fact and touched first base, at which Umpire Williams called Summa out. At this the entire Baron team. led by the vociferous Eddie Mo Donald, rose up on their individual and collective hind legs and let out mighty howl and finally notified the umps that the game would be played under protest.
 The Barons scored a run in the fifth by series of pop-eyed plays by Chick Galloway. Ellis flied out to Herndon, but IIairston singled to center on Webbs grounder to Galloway. Hair ston was forced at second to Dykes. Peters singled to left and Webb took second On Morrison's ground ball tn Galloway the shortstop threw wild to Dykes, letting Peters get safe at that station, and then, seeing Webb attempt ing to go home threw wild to the plate and the Baron third sacker counted.

MORRIS-FLYNN FIGHT

And then, that faction points to the Morris-Flynn fight in Madison Square Garden on September 15, 1911-one of the bloodiest and -sider in the mod ern history of the ring-to illustrate real ring courage.
 That battle marked the first appear ance of Morris in the east. He was the original white hope" who began fighting careerr two months after Jack Johnson whipped Jim Jeffries in Reno. His ambition was to fight and whip the negro and restore the title to the white race.
 Morris first fight was on September 23, 1910, when he knocked out Jim Hur r- ley in three rounds. Then, in quick succession, he battered into oblivion Ed Anderson, four rounds; Battling Britt, one round; Jim Harper, three rounds; Marvin Hart, three rounds Spike Kennedy, two rounds; and Mike Schreck, six rounds. With a record of seven straight knockout triumphs, Morris landed in New York and issued a general challenge.
 Jim Flynn, the Pueblo Fireman ac- cepted. And the crowd that turned out for the fight looked for slaughter of Flynn. He was five feet seven and

Barons Diuide Double Header With Crackers

Some persons accord to Jess Will lard the distinction of putting up one of the gamest battles of all time, oth- CTS insist that the Carl Morris exhibi- tion in New York, with Jim Flynn as his foeman. in 1911, eclipses it by far
 Ever since the Willard-Dempsey af- fair there has been clash of opinion as to whether it was conscious or unintentiona1 gameness-that sent Willard out for the second and third rounds. Willards own statement, is- sued some days after the battle, is although Willard demonstrated game ing.
 Nothing really was clear to me aft CT Dempsey landed that first punch the right handler to the heart" Willard is quoted as saying. Tt seemed to semi -paralyze me and I can't remem- Der much that happened afterward and almost nothing from the moment that Dempsey's first left hook caught me on the jaw"
 That statement" claim those who insist that Willard wasn't consciously game, shows that through the rest of the first round, the second and the third, he fought by instinct. He was insensible to pain, unknowing of his danger and really suffered no more than man who is under an anesthetic. So Willard cant be crowned as game man, for real gameness is shown only when a man stands up and takes more, and ever more, walloping and feels the agonizing force of each blow"

MANY CHANGES WASTED

The second game was almost re- plica of the first. Atlanta wasting chance afser chance to send runners across the plate, only to fall down in the crucial moment. In the third n , ming the Crackers actually had thes bases loaded and not man down, and still were unable to punch over even the semblance of hit.
 Ray Roberts, pitching for the Crack CTS was in anything but the best of form. He had felt indisposed all day and his pitching showed that he was ailing. Although he gave up but six hits. the Barons negotiated them when the bases were under the influence of base runners and so were able to score twe runs to the Crackers total of a single marker.
 Morrison. the flaxen-haired Baron, is proba5 5ly the lucl<iest pitcher at laiGe in the world today He got into more holes and got out of same by some stroke of fortune than any other pitcher seen here this year, The Baron twirler had lot of stuff, however, aiil his curve ball, always a good one, was breaking sharply.

BARONs SCORE FIRST

The Barons gave everybody present start by scoring first on the Crackers. In the thiyd inning Coffindaffer. start ing it off, singled to center. After Me Donald had flied cut to right Summa slammed a grounder at Griffin. and the first raseman. in attempting to force Coffindaffer at second hurled the bal. low to Galloway, and Coffindaffer went to third The pitcher was brought ina moment lyater on Stevensons out to Damrau.
 The Crackers scored their first run in the fourth Mayer started the proverbial fireworks with a single to left. He was sacrificed down to second by Damrau, and after Dykes had gone out and Grif- fin had walked was brought in by Bob Higgins sharp single to right.
 Things rocked along like this until th~ eighth inning, when the Crackers, no doubt figuring that the foolishness had gone far enough, decided upon a course of action that was very pleasing to the Atlanta fandom In th1s frame Ivy Grif- fin demonstrated to the Atlanta fans that he is the best pinch hitter in the United States.
 To start the slaughter off mildly, Hern- don flew out to Summa. Mayer, how ever caught the well-k known agate on the nose for a, one-t timer to left. Gallo way grounded to Webb. and when the AdIJeF Cnuchel inc p4il d SOou plttt ONc- Bernsen's head Chick went to second and sammy took third. To cap the climax, Dykes walked, filling the bases. and nary a man down. Then ups Ivy Griffin, the crowd waiting in tense silence. Ivy looked over few and then. zowie, the ball was seen sailing between right and center fields. When the smoke from the blow cleared the bases were cleared of occupants and Ivy was resting on third, whilst pandemonium reigned. This mighty swat scored the final runs of the Crackers. which were, all in all, quite a sufficiency.
 Harry Damrau made two beautiful catches of fouls over near the bleach CTS, and, besides, punched out two clean hits
 Ivy Griffin, besides the above chron- icled three-ply smash, garnered a dot ble and single, making perfect day at bat.
 Martin Kopp, the new right fielder, :. performed in the sun garden, and though he failed to get a hit in five attempts he takes a nice cut at the ball, and he will no doubt. start hit- ting as soon as he gets acclimated.

SOME OLD CUSTOMS
,y Men Take or Their Hats in the
 Shake With Right

N
 Touse-Why Shake With Right land.
 I t is often interesting to know the Y gin of those customs which we
 ry out unconsciously, without owing why we do them. For in &nce, why does a man take off his
 on entering a house? The reason es back to the time of chiValry, len men wore armor. For d man go into 8 house with his helmet l his head, would bs to show the : St that he did not feel quite safe M was fearing an attack. There $e, it became the custom for a, gen i 3nan 10 bare his head when in a 1Ise, that he might assure his host l his trust in his friendliness. |rhe military salute on the ap- bach of distinguished guests to a Id dates back to the same period. le firing off of the guns, which were lded ill those times, not with blanks ' with shotted rounds, was a. den- Etration to the approaching visitor bt the country was then unarmed b that entire trust was placed in Eir guest.
 Another custom which can be traced those same days is that of offering E right instead of the left hand shaking hands with a person. This Is done because the sword was hwn with the right hand, and if bt were the one which you gave your friend he could be sure that {I meant him no evil.
 Countless things that we do every N originated at a time when there
 $ some real need for them. And yet l continue to do them, and consider mark of disrespect if they are kitted, all going to show what &batures of habit wo are.
