TILLY BROOKE
 CIRCUIT STAR
Tommy Murphy Drives Mare To Virtual World
 Record

NORTH RANDALL, CLEVELAND, Aug. 15.-Tilly Brooke, 6-year-old mare by Justice Brooke; the Miss Stokes, driven by Thomas Murphy, Syracuse reinsman, virtually equalled the world S trotting race record to a sulky here today when she negotiated the first heat of the 2:05 class trotting in 2 :01 2-5. The record, 2 :01A, or three twentieths of second faster, was es- abolished on this track by Hamburg Belle, in 1909, and horsemen consider lilly Brooke's time as equal.
 By trotting the second heat in 2:02 1-5 lilly Brooke trotted the two fastest heats of the year.
 By going the third mile of the 2 :O5 trot in 2 :04 2-5, Marmaduke made it the three fastest miles trotted this wear. The time for the three miles total is 4 of second faster than the worlds s fastest three miles trotted by Peter Man ming, in winning the Pennsylvania at Lexington on October z, 1920. Man nings time was 2 :05, :03 3-4 2 :02 1-2, neither of these miles is as fast as the two negotiated by lilly Brooke.
 Favorites swept the card in straight heats.

has, and is training far more diligent- ly than Firpo is.
 Harry is a rather shy negro with a complexion tending to sorrel. With his money he is neither a spendthrift like Young Corbett, nor a pugilistic Harry Lauder, like Firpo. He is neither loose enough to rattle nor tight enough to twang. He doesn't glover and put his hand on his watch when stranger comes near, but greets him with a modest "such as it is, the hospitality of my house is yours" man. ner.
 At Southampton
 Harry is training at Southpampton, l.. l., which used to be one of the roadside camps for Jociety hoboes on their perennial peregrinations from New York to Bar harbor to Nice to Tuxedo to Miami. Some of them still go to Southampton but Harry Wills is so well behaved and his camp such a quiet resort that Southampton has not resented the distinction that Harry conferred on the place. If Jack Demp- sey had descended on Southampton with the same band of lOafers who followed him to Atlantic City three years ago, real estate values would have swooned below sea level and the town would have caled for troops.
 Firpo claims that he goes seven miles on the road every day. As he wears no speedometer and nobody goes along to clock him there is some doubt about the accuracy of Firpo's mileage.
 Now Wills claims that he covers 12 miles along the beach and over the roads inland every morning. Neither does Harry wear speedometer. Neither does anyone romp along to count his strides. But there is no doubt about Harry's mileage because nobody cares enough about the matter to doubt him.
 Thus far, Harry has not had more than 25 customers at any of his train ing exhibitions. Crowds never follow him through the streets of Southamp- ton. The society children don't ask permission to feel his muscles or beg him for his autograph. He is just the guy who is going to fight Luis Firpo, the wild bull of the pamaps.

 NEW YORK. Aug. 15.-Eyery time Luis Angelo Firpo wraps his vasty epidermis around a planked heiger, or falls out of bed or takes a wallop at a friend in his training quarters on tn marshy brink of Saratoga Lake, panting couriers come sliding down the brass pole from their room in Uncle Tom Luther's hotel, hurl themselves into the flivvers and go dangling over the long route to the telegraph and cable office in Saratoga to tell the world.
 The south American correspondents are particularly frantic over Luis Angelo's most casual gestures. If someone should buy Luis Angelo a bottle of ginger ale, the news would be worth sending back to his home town at a cables rate of 10 cents a word. If Luis Angelo should refuse the drink and take the money instead, the news would be worth sending at the quicker and more expensive rate of 50 cents a word. And if Luis Angelo should offer to buy someone else a drink the corps of south Amer ican correspondents would consider it the greatest story of the age and would send thousands of words home at the urgent tariff of $1.50 word.
 Everything News
 News is a deceptive commodity. Ev- erything that Luis Angelo does or doesn't do is news. One correspoT l. ent chanced to write that Luis Angelo was thinking seriously about the fight with Harry Wills and his editor wired back: Think you've scooped the world on Firpo thinking; rush thousands words descriptive"
 The reason why everything about Luis Angelo is so important is that he is going to fight Harry Wills at Boyle's Thirty Acres on september Il. By the same process, it would seem that the doings of Harry Wills would be important. too. But nothing that Harry Wills does ever seems to be worth reporting, although he has been knocked out by Jack Dempsey as Firpo

WTIGUE MAY
 BATTLE CARP

NEW YORK, Aug 15.--Believing that Georges Carpentier, flat on his back, is a better fight spectacle than Tommy Gibbons upright on his feet, Jimmy Johnston, the matchmaker of the fight club which conducts the brawls at the Yankee Stadium, is trying to ar- range a match between Carpenter and Mike McTigue for the light heavyweight championship of the world. McTigue holds the title which Carpenter lost when Battling Siki spoiled his Grecian profile with a wild right hand slam that knocked the Frenchman chilly in Paris. McTigue is such poor fighter, however, that Carpenter, brittle and slow as he is now, might recapture the old honor.
 In any event, Carpenter says he in- tends to remain in the United States and go into the movies. If he wins the title he will probably not defend it but will use it as an advertisement for his dramas.

 CLOSE BATTLE

oPELIKA. Ala, Aug. 15.-A large crowd of baseball fans from Opelika and Lafayette witnessed a game full of thrills at the local fair grounds Thursday when the locals defeated the Lafayette team by a score of to 2. 0pelika started the scoring in the first inning, making one run off Hawkins of Lafayette. The visitors in the third inning landed on Andy Chambers, who was doing the twirling for Ope- lika, for several hits, and in the general scramble netted two runs.
 And there the visitors stopped, for Chambers frightened up and held them scoreless for the remainder of the ses- sion. Opelika, however, came from be- hind in the eighth inning, tying Che score, and following up the gain, with run by Middlebrooks, which united the score and won the game.

Pop Robertson's. Double Drives In Stewart
 Runs

ATLANTA, Ga, Aug. 15.-Ray Francis and the Crackers had little trouble in ironing the Birmingham Bar ons, to 4, in the opening contest of q four-game series at Spillers field yes terday.
 While the Crackers pounded Rufus Clarke into the club house for refresh :. ing shower bath, Francis handled the visitors nicely with the exception of the ninth inning. when belated Baron rally netted three counters,
 Until this time Francis had allowed only five scattered hits and pitched some good baseball in the pinches, while ! his teammates played brilliantly be- hind him. It was different with the Barons. Three glaring errors, combined with the locals slugginE. sent the Nie- hoff outfit into the lead early in tue contest and it was never headed. Clark was sent to the showers in the seventh inning and Sawyer was sent in to stop the Cracker attack. His wildness, con. pied with two hits, accounted for one Cracker tally during his short stay on the mound.
 All the Crackers who shared in the hitting, with the exception of two, each made two hits. Brock and Zoellers were the only players to get single safety. Good, Burrus, Hills, Niehoff and Fran cis all secured a couple and a majority of these came in the pinches.
 Pop Robertson and Jeanes lead the ,Barons' hitting attack with two safe swats each.
 Young Jack Hills had a mighty good day on third base, which he is guarding during the absence of "Red" Smith.
 The Crackers went into the lead in the first inning by pushing over a count CT without base hit. Zoellers walked, but was forced at second by Good. Paschal grounded to Stewart, who boot ed the ball and both runners were safe. Burrus walked, filling the bases, and, T on a wild pitch, Good scored. The second also netted another when Brock led off with a triple to the left field stands. Francis came through with hot single to right to count Brock. The. third was another inning on which the locals pushed over a sim gle counter. Burrus started the fire works with a single to right and took second on another wild pitch by Clarke Hills sacrificed and Niehoff singled to /, left, after Robertson had dropped his xQul, 10 score burruS.
 The Barons first counter came in the fifth. ! Ganzel singled to center after :, two men were out and scored on Robert sons double.
 The Barons' rally came in the ninth after one was down. Camp was safe on close play at first and took third on Hartford's single to right. Ganzel walked and Robertson crashed his sec ond double of the afternoon to deep left to score his three mates. Spencer went in to hit for Sawyer, but was an easy out.
 A double-header is slated for this afternoon, the first game starting promptly at o'clock, Sunday will be an off day for both teams, but hostili- $iaa SvilI ha resI1n1ed otI sMoudav

 "Pee-Wee" Wanninger is purely and simply a Birmingham product. Way back wonder in his grammar school days, Paul was playing short for the Gibson school, an institution always fa- nous for its sport celebrities. He incl dentally did a neat occasional job of hurling or catching, depending upon whether he played for the senior or ju- nior teams of the school, for he played on both.
 Then he graduated into the City league. He didn't go to high school, and the preps and possibly the colleges, thereby lost one of the most promising athletes ever developed here. For four years he was the mainstay of the South ern Bell aggregation, improving with every season.
 When the "Boll Weevil'' league in South Alabama started it's brief but spectacular career, "Pee-Wee" cast in his lot with Selma, only to be grabbed by a Sally league scout and to sign with the Augusta squad. That season he was shifted from pillar to post around the infield, never being given much of chance, so he didn't show so we'll.

But when 1924 rolled around Paul leaped into the fray from the start and he has been travelling at an amazing clip.
