But no, brethern, we pried farther and got the dope right out of the feed box. The real reason for the severing of connections ie by a young man by the name of Joe Burman.

Like Moore, Burman Is a very classy bantamweight and because Joe also Is under the man agement which pilots Moore it seems the green eyed monster Jealousy began to bite Pal. Some one told some one else that Burman was a better scrapper than Moore and that Just naturally got Pal all worked up. As it is against all ethics of pugilism for a couple of stablements to fight and settle the matter of supremecy, there wasn's any way for Pal to soothe his Injured feelings. Moore vs Burman Next? That Is, there wasn't way unless he got away from the Lewis-Walsh organization. He will be away from It after Wednesday, and perhaps very shortly we shall read of the matching of Pal Moore and Joe Burman.

That should be some real battle to watch, with the green eyed monster still unforgotten. Thre is one thing that can be said about a meeting between Moore and Burman, and that is that this pair should pot up one -of the fastest and cleverest mills that can be imagined. -If there is anything that they don't know about this swatting game it would take a detective to find it, for a scribe or a boxing fan la unaware of it.

My wife always supposed that I was the only that did such a thing. If he lives to be an old man he ought to have quite a collection.

Richard H. jaocett: I find six variations. The knight can move on five different squares but only one counts, the one whei'e he checks the white king. In all the five moves of the knight the mates on the same square. Please state irfyour comments if this is a 61 or a 10 variation problem.

The way I drove that poor horse around trying to find the key was a shame. I did just as the composer expected tried the blockhead system (pushing wood) instead of reason. H. Skov Nielson: I consider No. 1 a very good problem.

It takes some time to realize the function of the various pieces and pawns so apparently hap-hazard-like placed, and yet there are none too many. I have done no solving for years. Perhaps after I get started anew the work will be easier for me. B. K.

This problem, however, he calls an Incomplete Block and so I find there are some things for me to learn yet concerning this kind of problem. O. A Ellis: I think the comments of older and better players will be more Interesting than any I may make on No. 1. I refrain this time.

Some of the other athletes coached me in other events, and I hurdled and sprinted and jumped and put the shot and threw weights. I can go out any time, without training, and put the shot about 41 feet now.

But when I began swimming I knew I'd struck my event. I began winning races right away. After a while I went down to San rran-cisco and joined the Olympic club, -because there wasn't so much competition in Portland and I wanted to swim all the time.

The idea of tapering or constricting the bore of a shotgun is of American was the first to try it out In the early origin. Some New England Yankee part of the last century, but according to Horace Kephart, the modern choking system first attracted attention thru the remarkable long range execution done by certain Illinois duck and pigeon showers about 1870. The English gunmakers produced the first choke bored guns about two years later.

Coming back to the subject of bor spills0 rl I 4 Si 5 Presence of Joe Barman la the Same Stable Lead to a Spilt. By Ray Pearson. It takes a bit of prying about at time to learn why certain things happen in the pugilistic world.

For in-Instance the sporting columns a few days ago carried brief stories to the effect that Pal Moore, wee Memphis bantamweight who gained an International reputation thru his battle with Jimwy Widde, the champ of Great Britain, had cut the string, which had bound him to perform under the management of Nate Lewis and T. Walsh. Said severing of relations Is to take effect next Wednesday, when the contract which carries the signature of the scrappers and the managers expires. After that Bill Haack of Memphis, a boxing promoter, will look after the interests of Moore. Boxer and Manager Friendly.

Now to the why and wherefore. Moore is hopscotching around Chicago and contrary ot the usual custom isn't shying gobs mud in the direction of the managers who are soon to use an "ex" prefix. Pal i hasn't' anything but nice things to say about Lewis and the other half of the managerial crew, who spends little of his time in Chicago. Discovering this was somewhat of a shock, so the writer nosed around to find out the real reason for the split Picking out Nate Lewis, we quizzed him a bit trying to "burn him up" by putting Pal on the pan. Did it work? It did not.

What did Lewis do but come right back and boost Pal to the skies. "Why, when I heard, after the stories had been printed, that Pal was going to part company with me after our contract expires, I naturally was surprised." Nate said. "But I told him. That's all right Pal. I wish you ail the 1 luck In the world!" How things seem to be changing In the boxing game when a parting boxer and his manager act and talk; that way! Reasons for tha Spit But going back to the reason for the spilt It was said that Lewis and Walsh didn't close terms, for a match with Champion Pete Herman at New Orleans because the promoter there, Dom Tortorich, was his remuneration for staging the championship in such huge gobs from the challenger that he could hardly- hope to gain any great profit even if he won the crown.

Also it was said that Moore wasn't- even at any cost willing to allow this chance to cop the title to get awar, and that this was the cause of WTiite mates in two moves. Of this one Mr. Janet writes: A Complete MOTOR TRUCKS You may like the Standard Oil Company, or you may not. All else aside, they have succeeded in business. This point no one disputes.

A few years ago, the Standard Oil Company owned more horses and used more wagons than any other company or corporation in the world- Today they own and use more motor trucks than any other -one concern. This company, then, knows something about trucks. Their requirements are exacting to a marked degree Their transportation engineers and mechanical experts go very thoroly 'into. equipment before purchases arc made. No less than four Standard inspectors "went ovrr" tho Patriot before they decided to purchase Patriot Motor Trucks for the Standard of Nebraska.

Turn diagram one quarter to left and per cent of the entire shot charge into the thirty Jnch circle; modified choke should tally 60 per cent; cylinder Sore 40 per cent, and these percentages apply to all gauges. Gunmakers show tables In their catalogues giving the number of pellet3 in certain charges. Taking number 6 shot a basis we find that: In 7-8 ounce of shot the standard 20 gauge charge, there are 191 pellets. A cylinder bore should put 76 in the 30 inch circle; modified, 114; full choke, 164. One ounce, the standard 16 gauge load, has pellets.

The cylinder bore should target 87; modified 137; full choke; 164. In 1 l-8i ounces of number sixes there are 245 pellets. For cylinder bore 98; modified. 147; bull. 184.

In 1 1-4 ounces of number six shot there are 273 pellets. Cylinder bore should target 198; modified, 163; full choke, 204. It is best when targeting a gun. to take several targets and strike an average. The Ideal target would distribute these pellets uniformly over the target; patches of shot here and there, with space enough between them for a bird or clay target to get thru, indicate a patchy pattern.

This can often be remedied by changing the size of shot for nearly every gun has Its peculiarities and will handle a certain charge of a certain size better than any other load. A few hours of experimenting will reveal a gun's weaknesses and individuality and enable the young shoot er to find what load or, loads his gun handles best With this knowledge he is prepared to go afield with the odds In his favor. check with this: 2pP4; 4KpPl; 5S2; 3pk2c; 3slbCS; Is2p3; 1Q5B; 8.

You know a lot of champions think they're going to last forever, and they let their best time go by without extending themselves and trying to put up the best that's In them. I'm not going to do it that way. I think I'm at my beet athletic age this year.

IH maae ing, the two thirds uftffi ftylyalw ing the two barrels of the double gun and the willingness of American makers to let you specify, at no extra expense, how you want these barrels bored, is a boon to the man or boy who Is seeking the nearest thing he can get to an "all around For Instance, a. shooter confining himself to waterfoul and the traps can have both' barrels full of choke, if he does a little upland shooting on the side, he can have the right barrel bored to shoot a little more open; If he does much shooting, in the brush his right barrel can be cylinder bred and the left choked enough to take care of the long shots. The other fellow's gun Is a painful subject The ability of their own particular blunderbuss to "knock 'em as far as you can see 'em," is a delusion almost every hunter possesses. I know at least one man who has been hunting for twenty years with considerable success, yet I honestly believe that he has never owned a first class gun. If I were to tell him so, however, I sure would do it over the long distance the moat of It." "Swimming is the hardest of all ath letic competitions," Ross said.
