Flowers was matched with GAL
lentown Jackie" Clarke for the
arena in Philly last Monday night
and It wasn't his fault because the
doctor refused to permit Clarke to
box, saying he had an injured
listener. The bout was scheduled
for ten rounds and so Flowers
agreed to take two of the best men
available at short notice, each man
70 stay five rounds, If he could.
Then the fun began.
First they sent Jerry Hayes, q
dark-hued rniddleweight, against
the man from Dixie. This is what
Jimmy 1satlinger wrote about that
in the North American the next
morning:
''In his bout with Jerry Hayes
he played with the latter in the
first round, making no attempt to
land hard, but just boxed and hit
fast enough to keep a good lead.
HE completely deceived Hayes
colored second, who, between
rounds, yelled out loud, THAT fel-
low has nothing; go in and finish
him.
Hayes, perhaps, knew better,
for when. the bell rang for the Sec
ond round he was on the defensive.
Flowers worked around Hayes and
shot in both hands to the head.
One stiff left to the mouth was the
beginning Of the end.
"The Tiger chased Hayes around
the corner and suddenly whipped a
short right to the jaw that sent
him to the floor. Hayes had been
50 hopelessly outclassed that Ref
cree Lew Crimson interfered and
stopped the unequal match.
"As soon as Hayes left Hughie
Clements entered the ring. His
weight was not announced, but he
looked ten pounds heavier than
Flowers, who weighed 1877 pounds.
Clements was lucky to survive
the first round. The Tiger start
ed after him fast and drove vol
leys of rights and lefts to head
and body. He penned Clements
In q corner and to the surprise
Of the crowd, lowered his guard
and let Clements hit his jaw with
everything he had for at least
three seconds.
"He never WINGED, but paid one
penalty for his audacity, as q
short Highlander opened q wound
on his mouth and blood poured
fast. Flowers then raised his
guard and started q fresh bomb
bardment. Clements was sDoH
groggy, and finally the Tiger sent
him to the floor with q hard right

ale cracked Clements chin
with a savage right, and the
Gloucester man bucl1led up and
fell heavily to the floor. Referee
Crimson was just in the act Of
holding up Flowers hand and
stopping the fight when Clements

ring.

PUBLIC SERVICE 4. D.
COMPANY HAS AN
"EMPLOYES CLUB"
Over 1000 Members Ex-
pected in New Organ
ization.

One of the largest clubs ever to be
organized in Bcxar county was Great
ed Thursday afternoon and Friday
morning by the San Antonio Public
Service Company, with an enrolment
that is scheduled to total 1000 MEM
bers by Monday Of next week. The
Employees Club" was organized by T..
H. Kifer, vice president and general
manager of the company, and by 5.
]. Ballinger, head of the investment
department, and its plan differs from
the majority Of clubs in presenting
cooperative benefits as well as recrea'
ton and entertainment.
"The club is founded on the belief
that a spirit of loyalty TO the company
and spirit of intelligent cooperation
by and between the employees and Of
ficials is absolutely essential If the
best interests of the public, the EN-
ploye, and the company are to be con-
served, and that this purpose can be
accomplished by the organization OF 9
club to promote good fellowship and
better acquaintance and to place with
il. the reach of every employe the
healthful recreation, wholesome enter
tainment and life. accident and health
insurance benefits"
That is the text of the foreword
contained in the booklets that have
been printed by the company TO be dis
tributed among employees. As the fore
word states, the securing OF life, ac..
cident and health insurance is one OF
the objects of the organization. and
the company pays dollar for dollar
with the employee, each paying half OF
the expense incident to the policies.
Entertainment that will include all
employees of the company, and club
rooms for the organization, are main
features Of the program. Reading
matter will be placed in the club
rooms.
Insurance policies of $1,000 each
will be issued to employees by the COM
pany, the dues to be subtracted from
monthly salaries, and half OF the ex-
pense to be paid by the company. Inc
cost Of the insurance per thousand
will be S1.50 to the employe.
The Public Service Club. composed
of department heads and officials OF
the company, was the inspiration OF
the Employees Club, according. to the
story contained in the club booklet.
Cooperation and harmony resulted
from this organization TO the extent
that the larger, all-inclusiye club
doomed as a promise of better har..
mony in the entire organization OF
the Public Service Company, both in
its relationships with employer, and
employe. and in its dealings with the
public. The Better Service Club was
the next step following the Public
Service Club, containing a hundred ac-
tive members among the employees.
These clubs and Others organized in
the company have proved that such
organizations are beneficial, and the
Employees Club resulted as an express
sion Of the company's faith in the CO.
operation of it's personnel.
Insurance companies issuing the
policies include the Southwestern Lie
Insurance Company and the Aetna.
With the perfection ofsth entire
organization Of the club. the first
meeting will be held. This will prob.
ably be during the early part OF next
week,

New York. March S.-Should Big
bee of the Pittsburg Pirates again
show sign of the illness with which
be was affected last year, the Pirate
outfield might be embarrassed, es
Reb Russell has gone back to Join
the smuggling chorus of the American
Association. Tough luck Reb had In
1922 he was the buStin'est buster of
the northwest, and in 1928 he couldn't
crack a smile.
But Pittsburg has one new out
fielder to whom so little attention has
been paid that the baseball critics
of the South say the big league fell
lows are blind or wrapped up in their
own recollections. He is Haz7n
(Kiki) Cuyler who played with Nash
vile in 1923 and was voted by the
baseball writers TO have been the most
valuable player 10 his team of any
man in the Southern Association.
Cuyler had 3S3 putouts TO his
credit and 35 assists, both records. Hc
also had twelve errors, but man
with as many putouts as he had is
entitled to make few errors. Cuyler
batted $40 lacking five hits Of max
ing a total of 200. The list included
80 doubles, II triples and nine home
runs.
And that isn't all. He stole 6S
bases, which is more than any minor
Lacquer has done for some time. He
also got 55 bases on balls. which
shows that he is something of a
waiter.
Suppose that Cuyler does as well
in the field for the majors as he did
in the minors, which is not too much
to expect. and suppose he bats twentr
per cent worse then Pittsburg will
not have to worry much even If Bib
bee doesn't come through.
Suppose Cuyler should make the
Pittsburg team and should have as
big year in base stealing as he did
for Nashville last season. and sup
pose that Carey should prick up his
ears and begin to run the bases as
he did in the years when he was the
leagues best runner. What n par
pittsburg would possess.
pittSburg hasn't exploited Cuyler
one-tenth as much as O'Connell. the
California hoy. was exploited on the
occasion of his purchase by the
Giants. And yet he played bettec
ball than O'Connell did before the
latter come to New York.
Barnhart is pretty sure TO go into
right field for the Pirates. When
Barnhart broke into the National,
someone said he wouldn't live long
enough to get the first letter of his
name into print. But he cracked
curves for .324 last season which Ger
tainly looks like staying.

humorous play, $50 This Is London"
at the Majestic theater. Friday night.
The eagle will again scream and the
lion roar at the matinee Saturday as

Saturday.
The theme of the play written by
Arthur Goodrich is based upon the
mistaken ideas that Americans have
of the Englishman and the mistaken
conception OF the typical American
under which the average Englishmap
lsbors.
The humour is universal in its ap-
peal. With an impartial hand, the
witticisms forged by the playwright,
were hurled by the actors at both
Uncle Sam and John Bull. In the
end. John Bul and Uncle Sam find
that the other is not such a bad fell

lion reach an understa nding.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Coburn are

an able cast. Mr.. Coburn plays the
part of Hiram Draper, the American
business man and Mrs. Coburn plays
the part of Lady Amy Duckworth.
The scene is laid in London. An
