SPORTS INDIANS BREAK LOSING STREAK BY BEATING PORTSMOUTH, 7-6 SPORTS FORMER CATCHERS LEAD ! SEVEN BIG LEAGUE CLUBS I Backstops Generally lirninicst Men in Game and Are Usually Well t Qualified for Managers. FEW PITCHERS MAKE PILOTS Connie Mack and Lee Fohl in Anieri? can and Stalling, Mitchell, Rickey, Hobinson and Moran In National All One-Time Heceivers. BY JAMES J. COKI1ETT. Have you noticed the preponderance of catchers anions the bis league man agers? Of the sixteen major league outfits, seven are led by once-time backstops. Connie Mack and I.ee Fohl are the American Leaguers' who got their early , training behind the bat. while George Stallings. Fred Mitchell, Branch Rickey, Wilbert Robinson and l'at Moran are the receivers of long ago who graduated into managerial jobs in the National. Club owner.-, when on the hunt for men with brains, incline to catchers. The present condition which has brought about a p>:hora of ex-catch ers in managerial r.>'.c? is nothing un usual. It ha# nearly always been that way. Catchers always have predomi nated as team leaders. Bill Carrigan. Charlie Doom. Roger Bresnahan. Jim McGuire. Johnny Kling and Jack O'Connor were catcher-managers that: passed out in the none too distant past. 1 Pitcher.Xnnncrrii I numinl. Pitchers, despite the fact that they are supposed o he a brainy lot. are not much sotipht after now when lead ership jobs are open. There are only ; two ex-fllngers in pilot roles today? Griffith, of the Senators, and Coombs.] of the Phillies. Through the years many twirlers were given trials, but were found wanting. Brains are absolutely essential for success as a backstop. An outfielder. lacking in thinking qualities. can still hold a major league Job if he is a terrific clouter. There have been many Inflelders who never were blessed with a great assortment of gray matter who held their jobs simply because of their remarkable mechanical play. Some star pitchers were considerably 1 shy on mental equipment. Few great er twirlers ever lived than "Rube" Waddell, who never was more than a ; big boy as far as brains was con cerned. The same was true of "Bugs" Raymond, a satellie for years. Neither man possessed an abundance of brains, j but each owned a "million dollar arm." \ which enabled him to survive the storms of many big league battles. Cnteher* Quick Thinker*. But with a catcher' it is radicallv 1 different. There never was a big league catcher of any prominence who ! wasn't a quick thinking, craftv indi vidual. Mike Kelly. Ruck "Kwing I Charlie Bennett, Silver Flint, Billv I Sullivan. George Gibson, Johnnv Kling. 1 Jack O'Connor and Charlie Zimmer, of the ol<l Cleveland Spiders; Wilbert j Robinson. Jimmy Archer, Hay Schalk i Steve O'Neil, Charlie Dooin, AVallie I Schang. Bill Killifer, all were men of i brains. "Why is it that catchers make the, best managers and whv Is it that a' catcher must be brainy to be a sue-! ccss?" The question was put to Robinson, of the Dodgers, the same Robinson, who. in the days of the Baltimore crioles. shone with exceeding brilliancy! and took rank then with the greatest; backstops of all tune. "A catcher, after all is said and i done, must serve as the brains of the team." answered Robinson. "Mind j you, I am not trying to throw bouquets at my own branch of baseball when I say that. I merely utter a truth long known to experienced baseball men. Field of Play Before Him. "The catcher is the only man on the whole ball club who has the whole field of play before him in eloseup fashion. The pitcher works with his back to the infield and outfield, the inflelders u..v?; thefr backs to the out fielders; while the gardners are so far removed from the zone of plate opera tions that they cannot vision all the trifling details of play there. "But a catcher sees all and must know all that is going on. The re sult of every contest hinges larsrely on the pitchers effectiveness. No one but a smart catcher cafk toll-, whether the pitcher is in a xW-nrcilis mood. If the pitcher is wobbling, th*? catcher i must steady him. If there is but j little chance to steady that pitcher, then it is up to the catcher to tip off 'ie manager to ?tick -n a relief t wirier before it is too late. The smart catcher does that; one lacking in baseball! judgment would fail. Mu?t Know ltnttern Well. "A catcher must know what kind of' ball every batter c.in hit and which ' Vind he can't rap safely. He must b? j a student of every foeman in the league, and then impart hi"? knowledge ' to every young twirler on the team as well as keep the older ones in formed He must be brainy because otherwise he wouldn't be able to map out plays to trap base-runners, or to halt men who have about decided to try to steal a hac. "A catcher needs brains, plenty of them, for he must not only do the thinking for his own position, h'lt for men In other positions who may be : a bit slow mentally."?Copyright, 101 . ! by King Features Syndicate.

The second panic of the Portsmouth scries at tho local ball park yesterday afternoon resulted iti a 7-to-G win for the Meuderitcs. It cidentally, it was the first victory of the week for the Indians. Moth teams worked in nn'son to produce that which pleases the home fans, although on several occa sions the beans were almost upset. Portsmouth's continuous clean hit tins of Napier's offerings throughout the contest made the panic intensely interesting after Mender's charges hail practically cold-storaged the game in the tirst t\yo innings with six or their seven runs. The affair was by no means a walkaway. ;he Truckers be ing in the play the whole nine innings, as evidenced by their gradual creep ing up, run by run. ? iet Klrvfn lilngles. ? vo" clean bingles were registered off Napier s twisters. Considt-ring the fact that three of the visitors' runs were scored on mlscues, eleven hits and only tliree deserved runs is not a bad manipulation. In the seventh and eight two light ning double plays put the quietus on additional scoring by Portsmouth. Moth the local boss and the leading Iruekcr used two twirlers. In the second, after Mender, the tirst up. drove yi?,,sphf,re cl,'ai t1"? fence. Manager Kddie Hooper chased Hirshberger a southpaw, and trotted Schaufel out In the ninth, with two on and one down, after P.tss had dropped a tier foot fly, tho **< "hiof" rclioveil Xapier, and tho next two wcro outs.

TOLEDO, June 13.?Jess Willard and Jack Dempsey will meet in their world s heavyweight championship contest here July 4 in a twenty-foot ring, instead of the reputation twenty four-foot inclosure. This announcement was made by Tex Rickard, promoter of the contest, to night, after he had obtained the con sent of hoth men. Rickard said that reducing the size of the ring will enable him to save inn square feet at the ringside to install additional press !?eats, tho demand for which has ex- ' ceeded all expectations. "You can make it fifteen feet square, for all I care." wns Dempsey's reply to Rickard's proposal. When Willard heard of the chal- < ! lengor's remarks, he said: I "It doesn't make any difference to ! me what size you make tho ring. The smaller it is the harder it will be for I Dempsey to get away from me." | Willard boxed eight rounds this af- ! ternoon, tugged at the weights and i shadow boxed. lie was dripping wet j with perspiration as he left the ring. 1 Walter Monalian and Jack flempel went three rounds each, and Bill Ketchel. | ! the new addition to the sparring staff, j went two rounds. Willard due a left 1 hook into Ketchel's stomach in tho first round, and he folded up like a jack knife. Jess walked away to give him a minute's rest. Dempsey did not don the gloves [again today, but went through his [paces before a big crowd. His dam aged eye may be sufficiently healed to permit boxing Sunday.

Catarrh is n condition ot the blood and cannot be cured by local applica tions of sprays and douches; this has* been proven by the thousands who have vainly resorted to this method of treatment. Catarrh should not be neglected or experimented with. The wrong treat ment is valuable time lost, during which the disease is fretting a firmer hold upon ita victim, and making it more difficult for even the proper treatment to- accomplish results. Though Catarrh makes its first ap pearance in the nostrils, throat and air passage*, the diao&ao bccomes more and more aggravated and finally readies down Into the lungs, and every one recognizes the alarming con dition that results when the lungs are affected. Thus Catarrh may be the forerunner of that most dreaded and hopeless of all diseases, consumption. No local treatment affords perma nent relief. Experience has tauglit that S. S. S. is the one remedy which attacks the disease at its source, the blood, and produces satisfactory re sults in even the worst cases. Catarrh sufferers are urged to give S. S. S. a thorough trial.
