poling out a home run and double. Wal
ter Rehg had the honor of driving the
winning marker home in the tenth, when
he singled with Baird waiting on third

Fast Time in Races
Independent A. C. Scores 63
Points for Victory—Gunther
Fast in Quarter.
BY HEZE CLARK.
Aihletes from the Independent Athletic
Club scored the most points in the Indi
ana Association Amateur Athletic Union
senior outdoor track and field champion
ships held under the auspices of the
Marion County Council American Legion,
at the State fairground yesterday after
noon. More than IS,OOO people witnessed
the games.
The Independent A. C. scored 63 points,
American Legion 40 points, and the Indi
anapolis A. O. 13 points, while the otter
28 points were scattered among ml
attached entries. In scoring, the points,
the bicycle races which were held on
the Inside track at the same time the foot
races were run on the outside track, were
not counted, as the bicycle events were
considered a separate athletic meet.
FAST TIME IN
QUARTER MILE.
There were some really remarkable per
formances In the meet yesterday. Gun
ther. a sailor from the United 8 ates
Navy, did the quarter of a mile in 50 o-5
seconds. Draper of the Indianapolis A.
C. was a close second. H J. Danger
field. a negro athlete, won fifteen points
for the American Legion. He placed
first in the three-mile walk, the javelin
throw and the running hop, step and
Jump. His most remarkable performance
was in the three-mile walk. There were
five starters, but the pace was too hot
and at the end of the first mile one man
dropped out. Three negro athletes kept
the lead and one white man hung on,
but the team work of the negro Amer
ican Legion walkers was too much for
the white man. Dangerfield won by a
yard over Moor in the remarkably fast
time of 28 minutes.
The Independent A. C. made a clean
sweep In the high Jump, winning ail
three places. Jerald Woods cleared the
bar at 5 feet 10 Inches. Sayre heaved
the 12-pound shot further than any man
ever did In the State of Indiana, putting
the pill 50 feet 4 Inches. The husky
pendent A C. man placed In other weight
events. Theodore Cable of the American
legion tossed the 16-pound hammer 130
feet.

Four bicycle races, harking back to
the old-fashioned Fourth of July cele
bration, were staged and attracted much
interest. Winners of tho events were as
follows; One-mile junior, Hahn, first;
Drane, second, and Kashner, third. Five
mile open senior: Duescher. first; Pick
ett, second; Griebe, third. One mile Boy
Scout: Drane. first; Kchoener, second;
Wolfe, third Ten-mile senior handicap:
Ross, first; Pascoe, second, and Hoffe,
third.
Among the thrills the crowd got was
afforded by two horse races run by
horses quartered at the fairground. There
were four entries in each of the events,
which consisted of a half-mile and a
mile run. Nan, a sorrel filly, ridden by
Arthur Renihari, won both races. Cruces,
ridden by Carl Overleese; Alston, with
George Marin up, and Ooochie, William
Brook up. finished in the order named
in the half-mile race. Cruces and Alston
finished second and third respectively In
the rnile race, the fourth entry bolting.
This fourth entry in the mile race pro
vided amusement to the multitude. He
was a polo pony, not a running horse,
with Edward Renihan, an 11 year-old
boy. up as jockey. The polo pony start
ed well, although obviously outclassed
by his larger and speedier opponents,
and ran a good race until he neared the
south turu of the mile track, where he
spied an open gate. Polo training
seemed to get the better of him at
this point'and his yearning for the open
field made him shoot like a bullet into
the inclosure Inside the track.

START PICKING
BASEBALL JURY
Fans Swarm Into Courtroom
as ‘Black Sox’ Trial
Opens.
BY CARL LITTLE,
CHICAGO, July s.—Post-mortem of the
1919 world series started today.
Trial of “baseball's outlaws” and al
leged gamblers became an actuality todny
when Judge Hugo Friend overruled the
motion of tho defendants to throw the
cases out of court.. He ordered picking
of the Jury to proceed.
Seven former White Sox stars and four
alleged gamblers faced the court charged
with selling out the world Rerles be
tween the Chicago White Sox and the
Cincinnati Reds.
As the twelve umpires of the “indoor
baseball game” were being picked, it de
veloped that the “master minds” of the
alleged plot may escape without punish
ment.
The State announced tint search of the
country by scores of detectives for those
alleged to have hatched the plot had been
futile.
Baseball fans by the hundreds swarmed
the torrid courtroom and saw most of
their former idols—s3oo,ooo worth of base
ball stars—enter court without coats and
collars.
Ring W. Lardner, humorist and sports
writer, is to be one of the most Important,
witnesses for the State, it is said.
Ring Is to tell the Jury what he knows
of the baseball scandal
Heads of organized baseball and many
others are to testify for the State.
The defense will produce records of
the games In dispute In an effort to show
they played better ball in the world
series than ever before
These are the defendants: Eddie Ci
cotte, Claude Williams, "Chick" Oandil.
"Swede” Risberg. Joe Jackson. “Happy'
Felsch, Carl Zork. Ben and Louis Levi,
David Zelser and "Buck” Weaver.
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, chief
arbiter In baseball, will be called as a
witness for the State In the trial. It was
announced.
The last technical argument of the de j
sense to delay the trial was presented by
Attorney Harry Berger He maintained
the Indictment was improper and de j
tnanded a bill of particular* Two hun
dred veniremen were in the courtroom 1
ready for service on the “black sox" Jury.
Judge Landis, It was stated by tlie
prosecution, had made a personal lnves- ‘
tigation of the baseball scandul and ttn- ;
earthed some Interesting testimony. II
will also bring Into court his baseball
documents, agreements and contracts.
i&lf Notes,
and Not QS ,
When the hottest “golfing day" of the
season was pulled In. dusted off and
placed o; the ahelf last night, tie pro
resslonalß of every club In the city sat
back to think things over and wonder
“where they came from." It is a fact
that every course In Indianapolis was
crowded to the guards by Independence
day shooters, who ran far over and above
the number* the most optimistic tourna
ment committees had figured on. From
the time tt was bright enough to take a
clear cut at the ball until the time when
It was too dark to watch the pellet skim
ming over the grass, golfers, fair and
othewise, enjoyed themselves on the links,
and did plenty of good shooting.
Harrison, shooting a consistent, bril
liant game from the time he left the
first tee, captured the honors In the
fifty-four hole tourney at South Grove,
turning In a low net score of 216. Ker
chival took low gross laurels with a
mark of 221. Rogers and Sullivan tied
for second low net honors Something
better than 175 sharp shooters were out
for the Grove tourney and the scores
registered were better than the average.
Sutphln clipped off a pair of 79s to
take the top position In the chase for the
Jlllson cup at tho Indianapolis Country

Let George Tell It
PARIS, July 5. —Georges Carpentler
still believes that he is able to
knock out Jack Dempsey. He be
lieves the reason he did not do so
on July 2 at Jersey City was due to
the bigness of the boxing gloves. '
In an interview with the New York
correspondent of L’lntrnnsigcant Car
pentier declared: "But for the last
minute concession to the reformers to
use eight instead of four-ounce gloves
I would be heavyweight champion of
the world today.
"The additional weight of the
gloves saved Dempsey from a knock
out in that second round.”

Ain't We Got Fun?
That's What the Big
Boxers Are Singing
At Ease First Time in Six
Weeks, Jack and Carp
Turn to Rest.
By HENRY FARRELL,
United Pres* Sport* Editor.
NEW YORK, July s.—Jack Dempsey
and Georges Carpentier are both having
their first fun of six weeks.
The two boxers who met last Satur
day in Tex liirkauPs pine saucer for the
world's championthip are trying to for
get It.
The champion Is applying himself to
his big car and the Frenchman is enjoy
ing himself around his Manhasset farm.
Dempsey said this morning he planned
to remain in New York for the remain
der of the week, but he admitted that
the call of the West was getting strong
and that he wanted to get some place
where he could take off a starched collar
and have a good time.
Carpentier's plans depend partially on
his young wife. Mme. Carpentier had
Intended to come to the United States if
Georges won and take a sight-seeing
tour of the country. If she decides not
to come Georges probably will go back
to France and return for some more work
when Tex Rickard gets It for him.
The Frenchman is getting rid of the
battle scars. His fractured hand will
be in splints for a week or more, but
the swollen face is coming back to nor
mal and the cut nose and eye are
healing.
Carpentier may accept an invitation to
attend a banquet to be given here to
night by the editor and publisher for
the visiting French and English news
papermen and New York managing
editors and sport writers.
Jack Kearns, manager of the champion,
Is getting the European bug in his bon
net again. He wants to arrange a tour
of the old country If he can land a few
bouts.

SHOWS HE CAN TAKE I|
BY TAD. 3
NEW YORK, July s.—“lt was not tfl
batter man but the bigger man that woiß
I said Jim Corbett after Saturday's figM
Well, that is his opinion. My opini
! is that the better and bigger man won. ■
Dempsey proved himself the bettß
fighter. He has all the qualifications ■
a champion. He has build, weiglM
height, courage, a punch and he
take it. J
Carpentier is a great fighter. He is M.
! much bettei man than most of Q
thought. He is big enough for a heavjß
: weight champion. He has almost ever.
| riling a heavyweight champion shouM
want, but he can't take it.
The French boxer has enough
He proved that by his wins over Weß
| Beckett, Smith and others. They
weighed him a good deal, but this wasß
handicap to him at all. Carpentier facH
these burly warriors, shot over lb®
dynamite right of his to the button an
; the numbers commenced to run.
WHERE JAC L I
PROVED BETTER. I
He did the same thing against Dempl
sey Saturday, but Instead of kissing till
canvas Dempsey staggered back a fe
i feet, pulled himself together, absorbed
another and another and was still on hB
feet. Right there is where Dempstß
proved himself the better man.
Tier's stock in trade was a right hanJ
upper-cut and a right to the chin In tfcJ
second round he dealt his favorites ta
Dempsey and failed to stop him. Hi
had his chance. ]
Had Dempsey been a weakling or pos
sessed "fa ehieken heart he would hav,
wilted like a rose out in the sun. Demp
sey took it, didn't he? It was the bes
that Carpentier had to offer. There wa:
no bad luck about the thing. The French
man pulled his best and hit the targe
: clean.
The champion of the world was foi
the moment groggy. His vision wai
foggy, his hands lost their grip and h<
he was set for the killing.
GEORGES CHANCE
HIT IS PASSED.
No one was at fault but Carpentier
As pempsej- reeled from the last righ!
the Frenchman let go what he figured
to be the winning punch. It graze',
Jack's chin. It was a pip. but It didnh
land. Did Carpentier rrove himself tc
be the better man then? He had the
championship in his grasp. He had hie
man going and he had a free shot al
him.
A few moments later Dempsey wai
himself again. The bigger man had qg;
' back Carpentier was to stand triaFSl
a minute or so. ,
In the fourth round Dempsey got his
chance. He drove a terrific right-hander
to the heart and then a left and then a
right to the chin and his opponent
wilted. A* Carpentier arose Jack
an-“her right to the chin and the prifl
of Manhasset fell to the floor as limp
; a wet rag. He was through. He couldn’t:
| take it. He lacked the one essential —
The ability to take it. A
