Wisconsin still has a chance to fin

Illinois surprised its admirers by

"Old Marster'' Brings Out
Another Promising Boxer
In George Daly5a Bantam

was Lewis who really gave Georges
Carpenter his first boxing lessons.
And the tricks that Lewis taught the
Frenchman in the early days are
tricks that he used through all the
later years.
The same canny Lewis picked Ed
die O'Hara out of nowhere-and made
him a sensation. OHara was just a
big. raw novice when Lewis saw him
at work in the amateur ranks. But
Lewis. unlike others, saw in him the
promise of greatness. He took O'Hara
in charge, taught him for several
months-and then turned him loose
But OHara had hardly started on
his career before Lewis took sick
and had to abandon his stable. He
transferred O'Hara to Leo p. Flynn.
And, under the guidance of Flynn,
and keeping in mind all the Lewis
teachings, O'Hara has bounded along
to a point where he sizes up as one
OF the most sensational light heavy
weights In the game.
He has had Sc pro" battles-and
never was defeated Through the
years Lewis has taken never-wuzzers
in hand and made great fighters out
of them: he has picked youngsters
out of the air, tutored them for
while-and made them sensations.
And, finland. I'd say that this
kid Daily looks like the best of the
whole lot" asserts Lewis. He's
game. he's fast, he can hit and he
certainly can take it, He has espe-
cially long arms for 11S-pounder
and that's great natural advan-
tage. BY winning over Lee he estab-
lished greatness in a single night, for
this boy Lee is certainly a great lit
t1e fighter himself
I'm going to send Daily along
easily for the next few months, SO
that he can gather the needed con-
fidence and experience by winning
over the easy ones. Then If Buff and
the others want to try him out. they
can do SOTO their sorrow"

WINE Hunter, British amateur
champion, expressed some surprise at

clubs who keep giving us newer and
newer designs, clubs which certain

equipment ever did 1t. These men
really add something to the charm
of the game and their work is to
be encouraged. They make the play
more thrilling for the novice because
with the better balanced, better
faced clubs the inexpert player can
make shots, and does make them,
which otherwise would never be
within his reach. The faced
mashie brings out this angle remark
ably Where the old-timer practiced
weeks for his cut-spin ball. apply

takes out his rib-faced mashie and
lays his ball dead to the pin as

We have only now to see the self

popularity that will lead nearly every

There is hardly another team in
the south that, playing the style of
football Auburn did Saturday, could
hold Centre TO three touchdowns in
four regulation quarters of play. Au-
burn chose to play a defensive game,
and rarely attempted to advance the
ball. The Colonies, with the ball in
their possession almost four-fifths OF
the time, were held to three touch
downs, which is certainly a credit
to the Plainsmen.

of the very best, and most sensa-

With the soaking in of this
thought. and the growing inter-

hereabouts, the attendance start

They grew from year to year,
until now a big time crowd Is
present at each struggle. And,
today. there is so much interest
in the, game that 1t would not be
surprising at all to see a big
ger crowd present Saturday than
attended the Sewanee- Alabama
game, or the tilt between Ala
bame and Vanderbilt.
A lot of this is due to the
merit of the attraction. Then.
too, much of it is due to the fact
that Birmingham has educated
itself up to football Along in
1913 and IA, when they were
staging contests at Fleetwood,
they had the ground laid off to
the worst possible disadvantage

With almost every high school
boy educated in the fundamentals
of football in the past few years,
and the grown-ups studying and
informing themselves as to the
fine points OF the game, Bir-
mingham has become hotbed of
grid experts, who tear each game
to pieces after it has been played,

cuss certain stars the press had
overlooked in its hurried effort

as 1t should be. The two local

In Birmingham before. When Goat
