They’re Champions, but Not the Wealthy Kind The threatened invasion of ICid Denclo and Francisco Flores, the two crack box ers developed in the Philippine islands, 1 has been called off. The featherweight and lightweight champions of that country were slated to sail for America early last month, but 1 had to cancel the trip for lack of funds. Evidently being a champion in the Philippines is not highly profitable. Denclo and Flores have good ring rec ords. Those who have seen them in action say that they would be able to hold their own in this country. They probably will make the trip at a later date. NORMAL’S BIG SEASON. TERRE HAI TE.

Herzog Is Suspended for Indifferent Work PHILADELPHIA, June 9.—Charles (Buck) Herzog, Cub Intielrier. last night was suspended Indefinitely by Manager Mitchell. Mitchell says Herzog played indif ferently yesterday and that until he decides to mend his ways he can not return to the Cubs. Earlv In May Herzog was replayed hy Zeb Terry, who has played a whale of a game at second base. Her zog did not like this. He went to the game yesterday just ten minutes before playing time. He struck out twice and allowed a t'y hall to fall safe that should have made the second out in the enghth in ning. , .. The Phillies won the game in the eighth. Whitney and Gardner Only Yankees Left in Golf Play in Scotland MVIUFIELD, Scotland. June 9 Two Americans, Nelson Whitney of New Or leans and Robert A. Gardner of Chi cago. survived the third round of the amateur golf chnmplonahip piav Tues day. Samuel J. Graham of Greenwich. Conn . succumbed to MaeDontJd of Bruntsfleld. after having won in the sec ond round over I-eslle Balfour-Melville, champion of 1895. Whitney had been putting rather poor ly hut improved In his play wijei Fletch er of Blackpool, in the third round, de feating him 4 up and 2 to play. Gardner had the hardest task among the Americans lie met Edward Black well of Prestwick, who has the reputa tion of being a long driver, but the Scotchman was outdriven by Gardner by from twenty to thirty yards in the first nine holes. Gardner made the outward journey in thirty-eight and come home ! n thlrty-ono for sixteen boles. Whitney’s match with E Martin-Smith. 8t George's, was one of the most impor tant. Whitney played perfect golf, keeping straight and always well up to the hole from the first tee. The American held the advantage throughout, although at the nines green he drove beyond it into the rough. OAKLAND IftMll I4 > MIA It is the upkeep cost that car owners are interested in.

Asa result of their success in winning a game the Indians today felt they had finally broken the jinx and a second victory was looked forward to by the fans who have been sticking by the team during its long-winded slump. The final contest of the Brewer, series was on this afternoon and, if the Hoosiers got good pitching, there was a strong possibility that they would annex an other win, because the club seems to have found its hitting stride and also its best defense. Following the Milwaukee windup the Minneapolis Millers will make their first visit of the season at Washington park with a series opener tomorrow. Joe Can tillon has gathered a bunch of dangerous hitters together and the Indians are bound to face stiff opposition. ZWILLING GETS PERFECT HOMER. Clint Rogge got away with a 5-to-4 victory over the Brewers yesterday, when Eddie Zwilllng socked one Into the dis tant right field bleachers with two Tribesmen on the paths In the fourth Inning. It was a tremendous clout and certainly put the Indians in the game aft er tlie Brewers had taken a lead. When the fourth frame arrived Mil waukee was leading, 4 to 0, scoring two In the second and two in its half of the fourth. HANK STARTS AND KEEPS GOINO. With oue Hoosier out, Jimmy Smith singled and scored on Covington’s double. Itehg’s single sent Covington to third, and then Zwilllng blasted one of North rop’s offerings to distant parts. The three markers scored by Eddie’s home run brought the score up even with the Brewers, aud smart base-runuing by Bcbrelber put the Hoosiers one to the good, where they remained. After Zwilllng clouted out his homer, Schrelber singled and KusseC fanned. Hank saw second base open aud he sprinted for that bug and. when It was left uncovered, the throw from Catcher Gaston skipped unmolested into center field and Schrelber romped all the way borne. Gossett was retired for the third out when Shortstop Cooney made a bure hand stop of his hit aud threw him out by a step. Rogge worked like a Trojan after bis mates got bint a lead and, though he was In danger tu the sixth and eighth, he managed to ease through and allow the fans to go home In a happy frame of mind. Hup Huhn was !>e Brewer star, the big Indianapolis boy crashing two doubles, getting a walk and a sacrifice. Two of the visitors’ runs were Bcored on sacrifice flies. ■VOTES or THE G OIK.

Hearing that a “circus” was to be staged at the ball park at night the In dians decided to stage oue of their own in that fourth. Jake Northrop Jerked and jerked, but the Hoosiers kept going. Manager Egan was on the point of Jerking Jake but he settled after the fourth. Rogge can get more near-hits thnn any batter that has appeared at Washington park. The Indians failed to get the big league player they had almost within their grasp. Another major outfit stepped in and grabbed the man. That’s how hard it is to get players out of the big show. The Indians had the honor of defeating the Brewers’ best pitcher. They all look different when they win. Petty was slated to face the Brewers on the mound In today's game. WIN WITHOI T CAPTAIN.

Dempsey Leads in Opening Round of Draft Case Fight First Government Testimony Not Thought Damaging to Boxing Champ. SAN FRANCISCO, June 9.—Jack Pempsey, heavyweight boxing champion, scored heavily in the first day of his trial on the charge of having evaded the draft. The government put nearly a dozen witnesses on the stand yesterday and not one of them gave any testimony which legal sharps could construe as damaging to the case of the heavyweight champion. The stories of witnesses supported the story of Dempsey. Asa result Dempsey's friends now are confident of acquittal and absolute vindication for him. Predictions are made that the trial will be over before the end of the week. Less than twenty Jurymen were called before the jury was chosen. John Hogan, who was chairman of the draft board which classified Dempsey, said he placed Dempsey in class 4A of the draft because he felt that the facts in Dempsey’s case warranted. Young Ouimet Favorite in the Transmississippi ROCK ISLAND, IIL, June 9.—Ray Ouimet of Kansas City duplicated his score of Monday by turning in a 72 Tuesday in the last qualifying round for the championship of the trans-Missis sippi Golf association at the Rock Island arsenal. Asa result, he won low medalist hon ors of the tournament. Because of his steady playing, Ouimet today was favored to win the title. The par for the course is 74. Cedar Rapids Country club team won the Brock trophy with a total four man score of 600 for two days. The 1921 championship tournament of the trans-Mississippi Golf association was awarded to the Denver (Col.) Country club. L. R. Lemist of Denver was elected president of the association.

Magee Says Hal Chase Crossed Him in Betting CINCINNATI, June 9.—Lee Magee on the witness stand in the United States' district court late yesterday in his suit against the Chicago National league club testified that he and llal Chase, former first baseman for the Cincinnati Na tionals, bet on the first game of a dou ble-header which the Cincinnati club played with Boston on July 25. 1918. Magee said he and Chase had bet SSOO on the Cincinnati team to win the game. After the game, Magee testified, he learned that the money had been secretly bet against the Cincinnati team, and he therefore refused to pay the bet, stopping payment on the check which be had given. President John Heydler of the Na tional league testified that Magee came to him and President Veerk of the Chi cago club on Feb. 10, 1920 and “con fessed." AMATEURS PUT ON GOOD SHOW Athletic Card Offered Ad Delegates Makes Hit. There was but one drawback to the amateur boxing card of five bouts ar ranged by Ernie Holcher, boxing instruc tor at the Independent Athletic club, as part of the Associated Advertising Clubs of the World “Circus” at Washington park last night. The disappointment came in the Sul livan-Allice go, carded as the big attrac tion on the program. Aiilce, who hails from Muncie, is supposed to be a clever leather pusher, but his work against the state featherweight champ last night was anything but creditable. He seemed more eager to put on a foot race than box and for two rounds Sullivan chased him around the ring, landing a punch only when he put on a home-stretch sprint. HE RETIRES FOR THE EVENING.
