VANNERSON HIGH
 SCORER AT CLUB
 HANDICAP SHOOT

On account of the big football game and the bad afternoon only l2 of the old regulars showed up at the Bir- mingham Gun club to participate in the Ingalls, Handicap shoot Satur day, but some remarkable scores were made on the different yardage as the dark afternoon made the little clays look mighty small from the 21 and 22yard mark.
 The 5O-bird handicap proved to be a win for W. l., Vannerson, who sniffed out 4S out of his 50 from 16 yards. Second place went to o. l.. Carl with 47 breaks. while third place was a tie between J. J. Grimes. Mrs. Carl and Paul McCartin, with 46 each.
 The 100 target event was won by Dr. McCrummin. with 92 breaks. This was Dr. McCrummin's best score, and very nice score for the dark aft ernoon. I. M. Crum was in second place with S9. A. c. Chesney landed SS of the little saucers and his best score-so far at the traps up until this time was S7.
 pr. McCrummin landed his first 25 straight. and has dreams of making 50 straight the next time.
 Walter Vannerson landed the long est run for the afternoon, with 40 straight. while McCrummn landed the next longest run of 24 straight.
 l. M. Crum had a bad hand. so his score is off some ewhat. as he has been hitting above the 90 per cent for some time. Scores:

By CHICK EVANS
THE FULL MIpIRoN

Francis Ouimets midiron has mada golfing history and as I think back over the play at Brookline last week am impressed with the thought that the average golfer does not make sufficient use of this important club. the mirror. l find the tendency among many players to force a mashie shot to get the midiron dis golf. This. of course. is not good golf. There is clue for every shot but as general rule there is only enc club. You must use the right club if you want the best results. In playing the full midiron shot want to caution the golfer to be sure to complete the stroke. If you do that it is almost certainty that the club will do it's share of the work.
 The Follow Through
 With the midiron I get the best results by following through with my left elbow against my body. Readers who have been following this de- partment will know l term this the bent" follow-through When I play the full :nidiron shot force the club into the imaginary direction line and give the ball the quickest snap pos sible with loose wrists and l strive for perfect timing You must be sure to take d little chip of sod after you hit the ball. This seems to steady the flight of the ball in a remark able way Of course. if my ball is lying very well I would not take the bit of turf.
 Don't stab the ball. The clubhead must go through the turf and into the imag ginary line with the bent follow through. Your muscles should find the happy middle ground between teLseness and looseness for this shot. The only real tightness I have i'll

brawl while he was acting as a sec ond during a fight. It was exactly similar to score that have taken place in British and French rings in the last few years. and which usually have been laughed at.
 Ski Is Suspended
 The fight was over and the winner announced when Siki mixed" 1t with the second of the winner But the incident was magnified into a grave breach of the rules and Siki was suspended. In fact. the decision lacked but single vote of perma- nently barring him from the ring.
 It would appear from long dis tance view across the channel that Skis great fault has been a refusal to take himself seriously. He has re- fused to accept vaudeville contracts and even big money to allow his por- trait to be used to advertise a cer- tain shoe blacking. preferring to en- joy himself in his own manner with his old friends. and has not. exploited his victory Tn the orthodox way
 Regardless of the decision of the boxing federation. there is no doubt that British and French fight fans believe that he is real champion who packs knockout punch and they would be willing to pay bigger money to see him than any other fighter now on this side of the water.

gripping the club for the full mid Iron shot is a tenseness of my fingers am fully conscious of having a good grip on the club. try to feel the cgubhead. I suppose it is un- necessary to say to the golfers of to- day that the only proper grip is the finger grip.
 The Up Stroke
 On full midiron shots guard against bringing the clubhead up too quickly on your back stroke. Bring 1t along the ground a little way be- fore going up.
 The difference between good play CTS and poor players can usually be measured by the difference in their iron play. Iron shots offer the op- portunity for some of the finest of golf play. For this reason they should be practiced constantly and with the idea of accuracy always in mind.
 When you get on such good terms with your midiron that you play right for the hole, not being content with merely making the green then you have an appreciation of its pos sibilities.
 As the midiron Is shorter than the driving iron, of course. you take your stance nearer the ball.

They were pretty badly smashed In the last two fights and that is the reason no one has heard of his hay ing been in action recently. A fighter who expects to enter the ring with an even chance of slowing Dempsey away cannot have any flaws in his tools of trade. With Harry thus out of the limelight and general feeling that anyway he Is past his prime, such interest as existed in the pro- posed fight has simmered down to a few pinhead bubbles.
 So the poor promoters are working among the lesser lights to see what can be steamed up in the way of a worlds championship battle. Bren- nan and Tommy Gibbons are talked of as the cocktail, so to speak, that precedes the heavyweight title feast. Should the two be matched and Gibbons wins-as he might-we can see a furry of interest rising over Dempsey Gibbons battle. And clever promotion could work this condition up to something more inn pressiye than furry.
 Brennan No Contender
 But with Brennan winning or holding the St. Paul boy fairy even, then the whole works would be in. AS a contender for Dempsey, Bren- nan would not get by with the pub. lie. Brennan and Jack have already pulled their little stunt, and that is one pitcher that wont stand going twice to the we'll. Brennan is nil on fighting personality.
 If Joe Beckett could be induced to come to this country something might be done to give the fans food for thought. Rickard is broken hearted at not receiving replies to his cabled offers to match Beckett and Gibbons. He doles it out that Joe is afraid to come over and tempt fate with the good American fight CTS. and probably he is right.
 Joe. in coming here, could get one good fight with a big purse. And that would be all. Over in England there Is no one in sight he cannot whip, and he would rather get less money for one fight and pile up iron men deliberately. while retaining his newely won prestige, than lose his status as England's idol.
 Eventually. when he has cleaned up all he can he will probably listen to the siren song about Dempsey. But just now is is logical to assume he sees no good reason why he should fuss around with such a knocker- out as Tommy Gibbons.
 In the meantime. Jack Dempsey remains aloof. drawing card with nothing to draw, gold mine with no pick handy.

CRIMSON ELEVEN OF CENTRAL TIES
 CHATTANOOGA
Prep EIevens Battle to Score less Draw in Morning Game
 at Redwood :

Birmingham's Central High grid- ders came out of yesterdays game with their slate still unmarred by de- feat, but with scoreless tie marked up against them, when they were un- able to score on the strong Chatta- nooga team.
 The visiting eleven started the game off with a rush. when they re- covered Hoster's tumble and, with line plunges by Smith and Estes they carried the ball to the Crimsons' five yard line. There the locals braced and held for downs. It was the only time that the visitors were in scoring distance of CentraPs goal.
 Central took the ball and with a series of line plays, carried 1t back 52 yards only to have their drive fall them when they passed mid field. The local team had it's best chance to score at the beginning of the sec ond quarter, when Hoster's men took the ball on the 39-yard line and with a series of line smashes, carried the ball to Chattanooga's one-yard line, only to be held by the splendid defen- sive work of the visitors. iH Kick Bnrely Fails Estes made great attempt in thss last quarter to win the. game for his IedIH, WHtH He ldiltu bJ AHNHtb ND drop the ball over the Crimson goal He was at a difficult angle. and Es- tes was on the 40-yard line when he made his great attempt. He had plenty of height to the kick, but luck was against him.
 Central made desperate attempt to win the game in the fourth quar- ter. when they tried pass after pass to get the ball deep in the visitors territory, but the Lookouts covered the receiver up each time.
 Chattanooga came here reputed to have a weak line, but the Lookouts certainly showed the Crimson backs a forward wall that was hard to pierce. -
 Chattanooga Central High showed a nicely balanced team, built around the work of it's three stars, Cahoon, in the line. and Smith and Estes in the backfield. They used nothing ex- cept straight football. trying only a few passes.
 Cahoon Star
 Cahoon was the best iinesman on the field yesterday, and smeared Crimson play after play. He was on top of every play and mighty few gains were made over him all the morning. although he was hurt In the first quarter.
 Estes was the chief ground gainer of the day for the visitors, and he ploughed the Central line at will. especially the right side. Smith, half. was not far behind Estes in the line gaining department, and made several pretty runs. The rest of the backs failed to show any speed or drive.
 Centrals line played fine ball all the way. but they again showed that their backs were not yet in form. Gravallee was the only man that could gain successfully. Newton got away with one or two good runs. but at other times failed to show any drive at all the same with Young. There was little interference in the Central backfield. Lineup and sum-

.PITTSBURG GIVES DOPE BUCKET SPIN
 AND BEATS ". & J.
Unbeaten For Almost Three Years, Presidents Bow Be-
 fore Partners, 19-0

Pittsburg. November 1S.-Washing- ton and Jefferson's wonder eleven today was out generated, tut-played and out-kicked by the University of Pittsburg Pantehers. Coach Neale's warricrs-undefeate for nearly three seasons-lost 19-0 struggle on a muddy gridiron to an eleven that had twice been conquered this fall.
 A brittle line and slow thinking by the w. and J. secondary defense had much to do with the unexpected re- suits. The visitors, held 2 to 1 fav orites, were swept off their feet In the first few minutes of play. and usually were fighting within the shadow Of their goal line.
 The first half was rough, but it was gentle play compared with the desperate tearing, slugging football that marked the closing quarters. Fists flew often, players disputed penalties and the officials were kept busy preventing personal clashes. Experts who have been watching gridiron games in Pittsburg for 20 years could not recall a more vivid battle.
 After a seoreless first periLd Pitts burg began scoring in the second when Flanagan wh.zzed a forward pass to Anderson who spirited 50 yards for the first score. Williams kicked goal. Flanagan followed this up by catching a punt fin midfield and running 40 yards. Hewitt car- ried the ball over. The try for point failed.
 Erickson, standing On his goal line. seemingly decided to let Williams punt roll across. But the ball bounded queerly and was snared by Jordan. who dove across the goal line. There was no more scoring but there was fighting galore. Lineup and sum mary:

LONDON RANDOM BELIEVES SIKI IS FRAME-UPVICTIM
By NORMAN B. WATSON
Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald tCoOyriKht. 1929. by The AEe-Hesnld)

London, November 18.-It is now becoming apparent to fight fans here and in Paris that Battling" Ski, the Senegalese conqueror of Georges Car pentier, is the victim of gigantic International conspiracy to rob him of his title and the fruits of his victory.
 brief resume of the facts may help an understanding of the basis for this belief. First. the referee attempted to hand the original de- cisfon to Carpenter on a technical foul. although the French light heavyweight champion of the world was cleanly and thoroughly beaten. This also in the face of the fact that Carpenter. during the final two rounds, had repeatedly fouled the Stnegalese soldier.
 Only the unanimous protest of the spectators induced the judges to re- verse the ruling of the referee. It had been publicly proclaimed that the winner was to receive 100000 francs, but British fans who were at the ringside say that Ski really received only 35.000. while Carpenter got, the big end of the receipts.
 Although Carpenters defeat was clean and thorough right from the outset. American and British pro- motors immediately began discount ing it.. insisting that Ski must meet and defeat a number of mentioned second rateA before his moral own ership of the title would be conceded. Then came the inconsequential
