ERNIE GREATER THAN CANS

1--WE noticed in your stories about
great fighters that most of your cor
respondents say that Joe Cans was the
king OF all fighters" said Jim Corhett
the other day while lifting his lip over
nut sundae at the Penn station,
Listen to me- piped Gentleman
Jim, How do they figure that when
Frank Erne beat him In his prime?
You know that when Cans and Erne
fought here in New York they were
about "a years old and right at the top
OF their game. Cans had Just stop
ped Hawkins. twice beaten Critic and
was going great guns. Erne, too, was
at his best.
Il remember the night OF the fight
well was great match, and I
sat near Cans corner with my brother,
Harry. Cans was great admirer OF
mine, you know. and | thought him Il
great fighter, too. | also thought that
Erne was great, so | wasn't pulling
for either one.
Well Cans gave Erne an awful

Of the battle. AS the bell rang at the
close OF each round he would walk to-

smile or anything, because | didn't

seven rounds Erne took all that Cans

but toward the end Of the eighth round
he caught Cans in the body with a
vicious left hook and then and there
the tide OF battle changed. Cans didn't
wink at me when he came back to his
corner in that round. He was busy
thinking
I'm the ninth and tenth, Erne beat
Cans about the body in awful fashion.
You wouldn't think that man could
stand such punishment. Cans couldn't

Erne was betting away for dear life
with everything coming his own way,
He was battering Cans to death. Cans
wasn't the same man. He was hurt
and knew it,
"Then came the twelfth Cans was

giving him time TO breathe In mix
up Cans was butted over the eye, The
injury bothered his sight. He appeal
ed to the referee and quit.
Cans was beaten. He had all he
could carry, and believe me he was
glad to get the chance to hop out Of
that ring.
"Erne proved to me that night he was
a fighter OF the first water. Yes, Cans
stopped him in one round later but that
was after Erne had tried to make
weight for McGovern and lost. He
wasn't the same Erne after that. Erne
was Erne the night he outfought and

FIFTY COLONIAL
GOLFERS IN BIC
WESTERN MEET
Stars of Golf World To Be
Represented in Tourna-
ment Beginning Next Much
Interest MinifeSted.
BY E. p. MAC NIcoL.

II leading golfers of the Colonial
Country club have their way no less
than so members from that club alone
will enter the Western Amateur cham
pionship over the course of the Memphis
Country club next week.
Believing that one way, a most dem
onstrative method, for convincing Of
ficers of the Western Golf association
mat Memphis appreciates the honor Of
being. the first Southern city to be
awarded the Western championship
tourney, is to send big field to the
qualifying tee, the Colonial club lead
ers have suggested to their brother
golfers that they enter this tourna-
ment.
1T is not that we consider ourselves
out Of the ordinary class of players"
said one official in speaking OF the
entry drive, but we feel that IL we
can bring out a record entry list for
this tournament we will have, in some
measure, convinced the eWstern Golf
association that its confidence in the
South and especially Memphis, was not
misplaced
Regardless of ones playing ability
there is one way to look at tit is
certainly some honor to be eliminated
by such players as Bobby Jones, Fran
els Ouimet, Chick Evans and others Of
their Caliber. none the less famous And
when the smallness of the fee. s., is
considered, together with the numerous
prizes for the various flights outside
of the championship division, one will
get a good run for ones money.
Present indications are that hundreds
of visitors from a great distance will
be Memphis guests for the week In
addition to a long list of notable play
ers a number OF nonplayers are ex-
pected to form one OF the most bril-
liant and one Of the largest galleries
that has ever followed play over the
Memphis Country club course.
The consolation flight will be played
over the course OF the Colonial club,
which Is now in the finest of shape,
beginning Wednesday afternoon. En-
try for the qualifying round Of this
flight is limited to those who fail to
qualify in the main event at the Mem
phis Country club and for those who
lose their matches in the principal event
up to O'Clock Wednesday afternoon.
Entry for the Western ny Colonial
club players must be made with Percy
Clark, secretary, by Saturday.
