ncenuous of sports.

Howard A. Holland, the Cincinnati
right-handed pitcher who come*
the club from the University 'of Vlr-'
gtnla, has a peculiar full-arm delivery.
that reminds one of an athlete putting
the shot.

games on pleasant terms with
everybody. This strange situation Endures
f?r exactly three seconds, or until
the first strike has been called on
the home star.
Fort Worth took the Poak Roberts

(Webb battled at the last show held ,
[ in the Hippodrome roof and lost a j
decision to Alex Sims in one of the I
best bouts of the season. Webb is '
a rangy, hard hitting boxer, and Is a
good opponent for the Knoxville
flash.
The other star bout will find two
lightweights in the ring, BattlingBarnes
of Atlanta, and Battling
Longmire, former army lightweight
champion. Barnett fought Trooper <
Clayton in Atlanta, and won a tedh- '
| nieal knockout after six rounds of
| furious fighting. He is said by '
J Trooper to be a boxer with science '
, and skill together with the type <
I ?
| that gives plenty of action. Long^ <
' mire's record in the army is one to J
! be proud of. <
In the six-round preliminary Bill *
Regan will meet John Burton, while J
I the four round starter will be be- J
jtween Bobby Kelly of Greenville, S. ?
