any fund raised by the White Sox in

done.”

collected by Gandil, which totaled about

CHAMP SHOVES
OFF FOR HOME
Dempsey Sails From England
—Tells Britishers He’ll
Be Back Soon.
LONDON. May 13. Cheered by Hun
dreds of admirers. .Tack Dempsey. h< avy
weight champion, departed for home to
day. Dempsey said that he had enjoyed
his trip immensely and was glad that a
return fight had been arranged with
Georges Carpentier. light heavyweight
champion. It will take place in Europe
some time before June. 1023.
“I have had a wonderful time, but when
I come back in September it will be for
business,” said Dempsey. "Beginning in
September I will tour Europe for three
months in vaudeville and will then begin
training for the Carpentier fight. I intend
to bring back with me a troup of Amer
lean fighters and will arrange a series of
bouts. I am going to take Bombardier
Wells under my wing.
“The fight game in England needs good
heavyweights. I am going to bring some
back with ine from the States."
Both Demseyp and his manager. Jack
Kearns, are confident of a victory over
the French scrapper. London news
papers declare that the Jersey City re
sult last year should warn fight fans that
Carpentier is no match for the brawny
American.
Friends of Carpentier believe that he
can give a better account of himself
fighting on European soil than he could
>n a strange country thousands of miles
from home. The Lewis affair showed
that the strength of Carpentier s power
ful right is still unimpaired.

‘No matter whether i am on a mountain peak or In a spruce swamp I

•'The matter of foot-wear is probably more Important than any other Item

COMPLETE COMMITTEES NAMED
FOR NATIONAL NET TOURNEY;
FAMOUS BEAL WRIGHT, REFEREE
Fourteen yeara ago under a broiling
Australian sun that sent the mercurjr
scooting upward In the thermometer until
It stood at almost 120 degrees, one Amer
ican made a game last ditch stand for
the honor of Yankeeland In the Davis cup
series against two tennis giants as great
ns any the world ever uas seen, Anthony
F. Wilding and Norman K. Brookes, the
wonderful Australians.
Although the Davis cup remained In
Australia that year, this one American
accomplished the marvelous feat, never
before or after duplicated on Australian
territory, the feat of defeating both
Ilrookes and Wilding, and although the
victory was not for America, the individ
ual glory of the matches went to this one
American. Beals C. Wright, then at the
very height of his great tennis career.
And this same Beals Wright will be
seen In the Indianapolis national clay
court championship tournament, which
Is to be held starting July 8 on the
courts of the Woodstock Club. No longer
Is Wright the champion, and though the
speed may have slackened In his power
ful strokes and though his eye may have
lost some of Its old time accuracy, his
heart 1s the same old tennis heart of
the old days and he will act as referee
of the tournament hero.
TO BRING STARS
l OM THE EAST.
Word that Mr. Wright would act as
referee for the coming event was re
ceived today by John O. McKay, • mem
tier of the entries committee for the big
event which wilt mark the high spot
In Iloosler tennis. Mr. Wright wrote
that he would accept the Invitation ex
tended him by the Associated Tennis
Clubs of Indianapolis, who have com
plete riharge and are managing the tour
nament, and that ha would bring as
many of the ranking players of the
East with him to the tournament as
possible.
William TUden, national tennis cham
pion, bus sent his absolute word that he
will be hare for the touruameut and
bring with him Sandy Wiener and Don
ald Stronst. youngsters whom he ha* in
his training. A letter has conic from
California that several of the best play
ers of the I'ariflc const will be on hand
for the ehnmpionship bettle. Although
Vincent Richards, who was ranked
third In the United States last year, lias
not stated positively that he will he on
hand for the Indianapolis event again
this year, it is thought that when the bie

Four-Game Series.
KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 13.—The In
dians were to open a four-game series
hero today with the Kansas City Blues.
From the way both clubs have been
pasting the ball, lots of base knocks are
expected to rattle off the boards, and a
few more to soar gracefully over the wall
as pitchers grit their teeth aud batsmen
grin their broadest.
The Indian twirlers have not been far
ing any too well lately and the Blues are
not of the kindest disposition when It
comes to showing visiting moundsmen an
appropriate welcome. Yesterday four
Louisville hurlets ducked and dodged
while twenty-one hits cracked off of the
mighty willows of Knabe's men, and of
ficial scorers sharpened their pencils and
nibbed their eyes ns nineteen runs
scarred up the home plate.
The “Slugging Blues" is no misnomer
for the locals and Jack Hendricks Is a
bit worried over Just how his mound
staff will stack up against them In the
present series. The Tribe boss was un
decided who was to start the series.
The Indians have been making plenty
of runs and are not very discouraged
over a few losses. The players are doing
well enough with the exception of the
pitchers. But a team has to have steady
twirler* and Hendricks Is bending every
effort to bolster the pitching staff.

Preakness Stakes
Hold Interest of
Eastern Race Fans
Field of Thirteen Strive for
Rich Purse—Eyes on Miss
Joy, Western Filly.
BALTIMORE, May 13.—Fair weathdj
and a fast track, the city crowded with
visitors and a fine field made all condi
tions ideal today for the running of the
550.000 Preakness stakes for 3-year-oids.
The absenee of the great 3-year-old
Block colt Morvlch was the only thing
that gave evidence of a conflict with tho
classic Kentucky Derby which was to
run also this afternoon In Louisville.
Crowds larger than usual Socked Into
the city last night including prominent
Government and society personages and
most of the big figures of the Eastern
track.
Thirteen classy youngsters wer* ex
pected to go to the wire. Os those
warded to go. one heard most gossip
tering around Hephaistos, owned by lire,.
Frank E. Brown of New York. Thle colt
only a few days sgo shattered the Pim
lico track record for the 1 1-16 miles, a
distance only one-sixteenth of a mile less
than he was to be asked to travel today.
The real star of the Maryland racing
season thus for has been Chamnlain,
owned by G. W. J. Bissell, the Pitts
burgh millionaire. Camplain was to start
in today's classic. Pillory, owned by
Richard T. Wilson. Jr., of New York,
was another one. wise folk said, that
would bear watching.
Keen interest centered in the initial ap
pearance here of Miss Joy. the queen of
the Western fillies, who was to carry tho
silks of Montford Jones in the big event.
John E. Madden brought along St. Henry
to keep Miss Joy company.
When You Score a
Ball Game
The scoring of a base hit often
resolves itself Into purely a ques
tion of Judgement. What one scorer
may regard as a hall too hard to
handle and score as a hit, may be
considered an error by some other
scorer. This question of judgment
usually comes up on fast and slow
hit balls.
