Sporting Editor OF Evening Journal.
Dear Sir: read the article In
Saturdays Evening Journal, headed
"Hackett Turns Loose on Mr.. Carpen-

Mr. Carpenter. and am in no way
responsible for the publication OF Mr.
Carpenters letter. I have never mad

Kids credit, for the gentlemanly way
he came through tWenty-seven con-
tests last year. with not one OF his
opponents being able to earn as much
as a draw.
Mr.. Hackett states the Keystone
Club gives everyone a fair deal. To
prove this, | Will cite:

the verdict being printed that way. as
he had nothing 10 do with the writing
OF 10.
One week previously, Hackett asked
Kid Sum TO box my cast-Off Billy

MINSTREL SHOW FORIREADY RESPONSE ID RACE FUND APPEAL FOR CLOTHES

Responses to the appeal for old clothes and rags are coming from all over the city, according to Dr. Walter S. Brown, head of the city welfare de- partment, yesterday
 Cleaning establishments, laundries, stores and hotels were urged by Dr. Brown to let his department have worn-out clothing left by customers and sheets and towels which have served their usefulness as such. If further service is possible, they will be given to improvident families. If not, they will be turned over to the rug factory.
 Dr. Brown asked that there be T clear distinction made when sending in donations. The welfare department acts only on behalf of persons living in the city. The unemployed outside the city limits are being cared for by the Trades Council. The welfare de partment is cooperating with the council, however, and donations in- tended for the trades council will reach it's destination. \
 All materials sent to the welfare department will be sent where desg- rated, Dr. Brown declared. Whether for county resident or citizens of Bir- mingham, the donation will reach the end for which it was intended.

 Cory, Jr, members of the balloon puo-
 licity committee, threw from the roof of the First National bank building. The balloons urged attendance at the national
 race on May 21.
 Furthering the small balloon idea, 30
 balloons four feet in height have been
 wired for, to be installed in the windows of prominent downtown stores. Baskets will be attached to the balloons, which will carry suitable lettering.
 A huge balloon, 10 feet in diameter will
 be suspended in mid air at Twentieth street ana Second avenue, north. An ap- propriate legend will be inscribed on the balloon basket
 Artistic posters will be mailed to all towns in north Alabama tomorrow by Hartley Anderson, chairman of the pub licity committee for the races. These posters bear pictures of three balloons and urge attendance at the national race. Boy Scouts have visited many of the downtown business offices with rubber stamps bearing the legend, National Bal loon Race, Birmingham. Alabama, May 21, 1921" Supplies of stationery covering the demands of about two weeks are
 being stamped by the boys.
 Major Arthur Barr Lambert of St. Louis, ballooning enthusiast, called over
 long distance telephone yesterday to as- certain the progress of plans. Major Lambert will probably attend the race, according to his statement.
