Cleveland Ball Players
Are Good Trapshooters
While the Cleveland ball' club
was in Houston the gun club of
that Texas City put on a trap
shooting competition for the ball
players and Chester Thomas and
Tris Speaker tied at 25 straigh.
On the shoot off a miss and out
affair Speaker missed his 13th
target and lost. During the after
noon Thomas broke 101 targets in
succession, which we might add is
pretty fair shooting for a gentle
man who only goes to the traps
occasionally. Larry Gardner,
Graney, Sewell and Elmer Smith
all broke more than 21 in 25 and
20 of the players broke more than
one half of the number they shot
at. Percy Smallwood, the trainer,
of the team, proved that he was a
better trainer than shooter for he
only broke two of the 25 targets
Percy discovered that there was
plenty of room around the target.
"Lady in Black," owned by G. B.
Irwin of Cheyenne. Wyo., winner of
a $5,000 stake for three-quarters of a
mile at Tiajuana this season, arrived
at the Ak-bar-JJcn track early this
week. This juniper will compete hi
the June 2 to 10, inclusive, races.

Mysterious Somebody Circulates
Erroneous Report of Fatal Injury
Of Carpenti er in Auto Accident
C hicago Tribune-Omaha Bee leased Wire.
Xcw York-, May 18. -Georges
Carpentier, his 175-pound frame
wrapped in a heavy bathrobe, which
covered pajamas of varied hues, was
sitting on therail of the porch of
his training camp at Manhassett'thts
afternoon giving ns a line on 'how
rapidly he is picking up the Ameri
can language, when the name of
Stanley Kctchcll, former middle
weight champion, was mentioned.
"Ketcliel was what you call it a
man kceler, wasn't he?" remarked
the Frenchman in English easily un
derstood. Then he lapsed into si
lence for a brief period, when, with
a smile that lit up his face, he con
tinued with a shrug of his shoulders:
"Dcmpsey also is a man kceler?
Ke no keel a man."
Not Easily Excited.
Facial features entirely, lacking in
pugilistic niarjes make one wonder
how he happened to adopt the pro
fession of pugilism. He smiles pret
tily and somehow one gets the im
pression that he is too good looking
for a game that entails the hard
ships of glove wielding.
This impression is accentuated by
a quiet voice, seldom rising to an
inflection which indicates excite
ment. But once this afternoon did
Georges raise his voice showing that
he was ncrturbed. That haoncned
when reference was made to an cr-

His present plan is to engage for gam's

northern Kansas who are not in pro or

clean, hard-fought game for the pure lov

i A game with
iarraiiged for,
game with MajrlJVille. Kau., ait been
roneous report circulated last night
that he had been killed in a motor
accident on the Hempstead turnpike.
At first he laughed with others at
the fake report, but suddenly grew
serious and the smile disappeared
from his face as he waved his hands
and exclaimed: -.
"They won't get that report in
Paris, will they? It would he ter
rible for Mmc. Carpentier io hear
that I had been killed in America.
1 hope they didn't hear it over there."
Many came asking verification ol
the report. The same sort of
"bunk" was circulated from Benton
Harbor about Jack Dempsey last
summer. '
Work Starts Next Week.
Carpentier passed the day in rest-
fulness. He did not dress and did
not even shave until late in the after
noon. He said today that it prob
ably would be late next week before
the routine work was started.
One of the visitors to the camp,
today was Frank Loughery, the
Philadelphia lightweight, who fought
Carpentier in Paris 15 years ago.
As a result of the visit Loughery
may become one of Georges' spar
ring partners later on.
Francois Dcscamps railroaded
into New York this aftfrnoon to
purchase a motor car. Said car is
needed to transnort Carnentier from
the Manhassett camp to dirt roads
some distance awsv for the . road
I w ork he is to begin next week.
at his cottage at Atlantic O'ty w hen
he is not m training for his quarrel
with Georges Carpentier, behind the
key, thumping away for dear ltl e:
cares enough to intercept them,
Admits He Is Good
Dempsey admits that he is a good
operator, and up to date no one has
had the front to question the claim.
Thus Jack goes unchallenged with
another title..
The big fighter is attacking an
txpecially constructed instrument,
which has been built for his benefit
in the living quarters of his training
camp.
Jack started to explain the various
systems of wireless telegraphy for
our benefit, which included the
Morse and Continental codes. The
scrapper is well versed in the gen
eral system, while his knowledge of
codes just about paralyzed us with
astonishment.
. "Just a Big Kid."
The champion hops from one fad
to another and right now he would
rather discuss the intricacies of the
dot and dash world than have you
ask anything about his engagement
with Georges Carpentier.
"He is just a big kid, always at
some kind of play," .said Jack
Kcarns. "and he will have to play
his string out before we find him
taking up some other sort of amuse
ment." The whole plant was getting ,an
awful deal from' Dempsey. Jack
was happy at his progress in the
game, but the folks in the adjoining
cottages for miles around are likely
to complain about the thundering
noises coming -from that camp while
the champion is poundingv out his
much jumbled assortment of dots
and dashes.

Ifoylake, England, May 19. In
another round of golf at Hoylake
today V. C. Hunt of Houston. Tex.,
and I beat Erie Crowther and Kent
Stoker two up and one to play.
1 felt my game coming along
very nicely. This was especially
true of my putting. Therefore I
am feeling v,ery much encouraged as
I can hope for my other shots to
come along as soon as I become
accustomed to the climate and the
course.
We are naturally all anxioin to
make a good showing.
The course is getting faster now.
Every day many players are arriv
ing from all parts of Britain and
the continent and there is a great
display of good golf.
My unusually good putting today
brought my putter considerable at
tention from the British players.
Tonight a man came into the lockef
room and told mc that he thought
my putter did not conform to the
rules and would be barren. 1 tee!
j sure he is mistaken but I have tele-

a decision.
It would be manifestly unfair to
expect me to break in another put
ter at this time or to have done so
before my arrival, for I live in a
part of the country where there is
no winter or early spring golf. I
have to use my last year's game
burnished up by a little practice at
Hoylake.
1 have looked over the draw and
would like to correct the impression
abroad and in America before my
departure from New York that it
was peculiarly unfavorable to the
Americans. I did not find this to
be the case. Of course we are go
ing to have a hard time with so
many" good British golfers but all
of the Americans are not bunched
together as reports had it.
