Dempsey Lands Hard
 Licks in Bout With
 q Sparring Partner

Atlantic City, June a1.-Jack Dempsey tested his Knockout punch this afternon and Larry Williams, a veteran and experienced campaIgner fell a victim to it. Williams before being knocked out was floored by the champion.
 Dempsey was fighting after he had boxed the first two rounds with the e,usive Eddie O'Hare, the Now York middlew eight. because the shifty and fast moving O'Hare seemed only to ta antalze the champion. Williams slipped through the ropes for the third round. He seemed to be giving Dempsey a good workout when sud eenly the champion whipped over T left hook to the chin.
 The knock down must ahve taken the fight out of Williams. for less than thirty seconds after they started again Williams was on the rosin can- vas completely knocked out.
 One Two Punch
 Dempsey started ''one-two" plnca and put more power behind 1t than be intended. The champions left thudded to Williams jaw. He stiff tened suddenly and started to sIr.k to the floor Dempsey failed to see that Williams had been hurt. He crashed over right hand punch on the other side or the Jaw. II partly tulised Williams around and he fell heavily on the canvas.
 Dempsey quickly rieked WilAanns UT and staggered to his corner, where Bernard Dempsey the cnam- pion's brother, administered first aid | Will'ems did not fully realize what had ahppened until he was out of the ring. Dempsey apologized.
 Pm sorry, Larry. the champion 1 said. q didn't mean it."
 After the one round knockout Dempsey cut his boxing with Jack | Renault to a round instead of boxing l the usual two sessions. He went aft- CT Renault furiously but the spec tacle of seeing Williams lyIng fla, on his face evidently had bothered Dempsey because. after boxing a round with the big Canadian heavy weight, he called out to his hand ] lers that he had enough.

For the Mining Championship

For the Mining Championship
 Dixie Walkers Sipsey aggrega- tion and John Sanders Acmar team are now engaged in five- game series for the champions ship of the mining district If the series reaches stage where it requires the fifth game to de- , side the title, the final contest will be staged at Redwood field. Thus far they have played two games, each team winning one contest, and the third bout is to be staged on the Sipsey field the coming Saturday.
 Slpsey took the first game by 54 score in 10 innings and Acmar grabbed off the second encounter by a 75 count
 Field Named After Dixie
 A gent from the mining district informed me the other day that he had just been down to Sipsey to see the game and stated that he found Dixie Walker, the old major league star, a regular king in Sipsey. Why. they have even built a ball field for his team and named it after him" said the fan. An archway appears at the park entrance. and over this arch one sees the letters: Dixie Walkers Field And Dixie. for this honor, has given to em a real baseball team, too.'
 BOoAt For Kid Box
 W. S. Forman, who sees ma jorty of the games at Redwood, and who is interested in the Ac- mar outfit, tells me he has . hurler down that way who could if called upon. "This fellow is named Box" said MT Forman, "and believe me. Box is 8 bear in the box. I think he is bet ter pitcher than Ernie Cox, and understand the Baronial manage ment was after Ernie short time ago to accept a contract. believe Box would join 'em if called upon, and I honestly be- leve he would prove winning hurler in Class A ball right now. He certainly couldn't do any worse than some of the men Moley has had on his pitching roster this summer.
 Innovation for Golfers
 Irving Frost, who is in charge of the sporting goods department at Loveman. Joseph X Loeb's, took me for a round or so of golf in the driving cage down at the store Tuesday afternoon. It was the first time I'd ever lamped one of these affairs, and l believe 1t is the first time one has been shown in the south.

One takes a driver, mashie, niblic or any golf club he may choose to perfect his game with, and drives with all his might. The bail flaps against the can vas walls of the cage and the golf enthusiast then takes an- other shot. It is a good way for a man to get up on his game without walking miles to do it, and MT. Frost tells me the golf ing cage is busy all day. It is offered free. to golfers, and the use of clubs and balls is also given free. It has proven quite popular and many golfers have dropped in for a few whacks at the ball, Mir. Frost says the cage is open to golfers at any time the store is open.
 Championship at ROcbuck
 While speaking of the royal and ancient game, it might be well to mention the fact that the next big golf tourney scheduled for the Magic City will take place over the Roebuck course June 2S- July 2. inclusive. This tourney is to be staged to decide the championship of the club. and is open to members and associate members only. The club cham pionship trophy will be given by the president. H. G. Siebles, and it is understood that the mem bers at Roebuck are eagerly looking forward to Tuesday, June 2S, when the qualifying round will be played.
 Killing Two Birds
 Gene Henry, who is going on the special train. which will leave Birmingham the afternoon of June 29 for the fight at ter sey City. says he is killing two birds with one stone, and he sees no reason why other Magic City men can't do the same thing. Of course the primary purpose of Mir. Henry's trip is to see Dempsey knock Carpenter for goal He says, however. that 1t will also be vacation trip. He will get to see the fight July Z. but the train will arrive day ahead of that time, and the re- turn nome VIII Hur pc star ted until the night of July 1. This will give the Birmingham dele gation three days in which to take in the points of interest around New York.
 Paul Taylor. over at the court house. stated Tuesday afternoon that the quota for the trip was rapidly filling up. and that those who desired to join the Birming- ham delegation had best hurry and get in touch with him.

For Good of
 the Community

steamship company III the Shlppmg columns of the Journal of Commerce, New York City, there are listed four sail ings out of Mobile and New Orleans to one from New York City.
 The sailings advertised are:
 New Y York to Mediterranean points.
 New Orleans to India, including Bonn bay, the Levant and Calcutta.
 Mobile and New Orleans to Pacific coast, including Los Angeles, San Fran cisco, Portland and Seattle.
 Mobile to Seward and other Alaskan ports.
 Gulf to Rotterdam, Gothenburg and Copenhagen.
 Mobile and New Orleans to Orient, in- cluding Yokohama, Kobe, Dalny and PukoW.
 Four to one in favor of gulf ports on the part of the steamship auxiliary of the Steel Corporation speaks volumes for the export facilities attaching to these ports and the economy with which they are reached by the products of the mills, mines, forests and farms of the gulf states.
 The steel mills of Alabama have been operating at 50 per cent of capacity while those of Youngstown and Pittsburg have been operating at from 25 to 30 per cent. That is because the Alabama mills are more conveniently located fCz) the ex- port trade.
 This is an advantage which cannot be wrested from southern mills. 1t is as much basic as the ore, coal and limestone in the hills and wales of northern Alabama and it is as strategic for the farms and forest products of the state as for it's metals.
 While our goods are going out, we are reaching to the faraway places for return cargo Ships must have stuff going and coming to pay expenses, because it costs as much to sail west as it does east.
 The movement of canned goods from the Pacific coast tU<Birmingham via the canal has become established and is growing. As Birmingham merchants get rid of the stocks found on, their shelves when the low tide set in, they will order more and more salmon from Portland and Seattle and dried beans and peas from Frisco and Los Angeles.
 Two Birmingham firms have ordered car loads of pineapples direct from Hawaii to Birmingham by ship through the canal to Mobile, thence Warrior barge line, thence delivery at the warehouse door through the Ensley Southern con- nection at Port of Birmingham.
 This stuff is coming on through bills of lading direct from the Hawaiian pro- ducers Cuatome was to get this product from Frisco or Los Angeles after brought there from Hawaii, but Birmingham mer- chants have reached out and gotten it di- rect. That means a lower freight rate and it means extension of the prestige of the Warrior barge line.
 That's the way to doit Five years ago Earle Bros had shipload of Worches- tershire sauce brought to Birmingham, Ala, from Birmingham, England, via New Orleans and the barge line. The ab- sence of terminals on the river and con- nection with the river as we'll as made quate river craft prevented financial suc- cess of that movement, but pointed the way to the assured success of the present movement with terminals especially de- signed river craft, river rate differentials and warehouse connection with the river.
