SERIES WITH
LEADERS OPENS
AT TRIBE LOT
Millers and Indians Clash in
First Round—Saints Take
Last One.
RACE IS SENSATIONAL
Opening of the “tig" series today!
Millers ts. Indians in the first clash
of a round of ball games that are ex
pected to provide oodles of thrills to
Washington Park customers for four
days.
The American Association race is be
coming nerve-racking with the Millers,
Indians and Saints separated by only a
few point.-;. It is one of the warmest
races of league history and it probably
will continue warm as the three clubs
stack np just about even. .
The defeat of the Indians by the Saints
yesterdav, 5 to 2. lost the Hoosiers some
ground, but the Millers also got trimmed
of a few points when they were beaten
out by the Colonels at Louisville. The
Saints' was the club that profited by the
day's events and they left here for Louis
ville with three out of five games taken
from the Tribesmen.
The contest yesterday was booted
away. The Indians were leading. 2 to 0.
In the sixth and no hits had been ob
tained off Carmen Hill when the fire
works started. In the seventh stanza
Berghammer, first up, was safe on Slck
ing’s error and Boone got a life on
Baird's misplay. Berghammer was hit
by Armstrong’s batted ball when a dou
ble play was in sight. Armstrong got a
hit on the ball under the rules and that
infield drive went as the first safety off
HilL Gonzales filed out, but Weiss, bat
ting for iPtcher Martin, delivered a
single, scoring Boone. Christensen fol
lowed with a single, scoring Armstrong
and Weiss. That made three runs over
before the side was retired. Three
markers were enough to beat the In
dians, but the Saints made their mar
gin of victory more decisive by adding
two more runs in tbe ninth Inning.
The Indians were in a batting slump
again and they obtained only seven
hits. They were off in the field also
and it was an easy matter for the Saints
to win after Die Tribe defense was
punctured. It was a hard loss for Hill. |
but the fans gave him plenty of credit. ]
regardless of the defeat, for it was very ;
piain that the contest was lost In the
field and not in the box.
Pat Shea was slated to open on the
mound for the Indians this afternoon.
Pat’s first appearance with the Tribe was
last Sunday when he shut out the Saints
in the second game of the double header.
Hank Sehrelber hit a home run in the
second inning . terday and got him
self a collection of prizes, the latest of
fered being a case of Van Camp pork
and beans.
Harry Purcell batted for Morrison in
the ninth and was struck out by Tom
Sheehan. On Tuesday Purcell pinch hit
and drove out a hairier. What a differ
ence a few, hours make!
Eddie Brown got two of the Tribe's
seven safeties yesterday.
Windy Lotshaw was banished from the
coaching lines in the eighth when be
razzed Umpire Connolly.
Krueger hit a terrific drive to right
field in the fourth on which Rlggert
backed up to the fenee and caught.
“'Bug” Christensen and Haas each gpt
two hits for the Saints.
The Saints did not get a hit until the
seventh Inning, but they had nine when
the game finished. It certainly was a
peculiar contest.
The Miller vets, always popular here,
came up from Louisville late last night.
Beb Russell. Indianapolis player with
the Flour City crew, is still pounding
the ball. In fact all of the Cantillon
pastimers are pretty good , hitters.
Erratic fielding on the part of some
of the players is affecting the hitting of
a few of the athletes.
The Millers are here for four days.
After the Sunday performance the In
dians will leave for a trip on the road.
‘Ladies’ day" and ''kids’ day" again
today. Last ‘‘ladies' day" of the week
tomorrow.

baseball player, and has turned out many
a university youngster to the leagues.
Bib Falk of the Chicago White Sox Is

Chicago Cubs was one of his pupils.
The eleventh consecutive champion

AMATEUR DON’TS. AND
PERT POINTERS
The old saying that practice makes
perfect is very true In the case of
young baseball players. It's the
ones who love the game that become
expert. Don t think that a natural
aptitude for the game is enough to
get you by. Like mt everything
else good ball players have become
stars In the national sport through
the process of many hard knocks and
hard work. Don't be satisfied with
mediocre performance, bnt look at
your faults squarely and strive to
correct th:m. No player Is so good
that he ran not improve. It’s the
ones who learn something every game
they play that develop Into grvot
performer *. If you are anxious to
Improve you’ll feel bad about your
mistakes and won’t make the same
one twice.

FEAR YANK ‘BIG THREE’
SANDWICH, England, June 22.—Ted
Ray and J. H. Taylor, two British play
ers. led the field today at the close of the
first eighteen holes in the British open
golf championships. Ray and Taylor
both went around In 73. The tourney is
for seventy-two boles of medal play.
G. Faulkner was second with a 74 and
seven players were tied for third place
with a 75, including Jim Barnes, the
American champion, and Audrey P.
Boomer, who drove off first this morning.
Walter Hagen, American favorite for
the title, went around in 76. George Da
can and Alexander Herd, noted British
professionals, got away to a good start
in the first eighteen holes. Each turned
in a 76.
The Americans, Walter Hagen, Jim
Barnes and Jock Hutchison, who is the
playing through champion, were the cen
ter of interest. The feeling is growing
here that one of the three will win the
title.
Cyril Tolley, British amateur cham
pion of 1920, virtually eliminated him
self by shooting 87. Jock Hutchison,
defending champion, and Joe Kirkwood,
the Australian, both turned in a 79.
Abe Mitchell also got a 79.
George Duncan was one of the first
to turn in a full total for thirty six
holes, following his seventy-six of the
morning with a seventy-five in the after
noon for a total of 151 strokes.
Barnes was the steadiest of the Amer
ican entries, being consistent in all de
partments of play. His driving, ap
proaching and putting were uniformly
good and splendid chip shots on several
occasions kept him away from bunkers.
Mitchell placed himself under a heavy
handicap for the final 36 holes when he
brought in another 79 for the afternoon
round, a full total of 158. seven strokes I
behind. Duncan, the nominal leader in the
early rounds. Other scores were: Roger
Wethered. 76-78—154; Alex Herd. 76-79
155 and. Boomer of France, 75-80—155.

BIG LEAGUE STUFF
After running tlielr rivals ragged
through eight straight gnrnes. the
Tiger* finally stubbed a toe and lost
to the Red Box, 9 to 8. They scored
seven runs in the last two innings,
driving Collins off the premises, but
Olsen's ineffective pitching and
R'gney's error had given the Sox too
loug a lead.
The Phils' three runs against Aldridge
were accounted for by a pair o fhotners
by Parkinson and another by Lee, but
that wag ail. The Cubs won the abbre
viated game 6 to 3. smiting Smith aud
Singleton right lustily.
The obstreperous White Sox came
from behind with a two-run rally In
the ninth, beating the Washington
Senators, 6 to 4, and now are tied
with 'he Cleveland Indians for fourth
place.
Visions of the old pastimes engaged in
by the married and single men at the
water works were recalled as the Dodg
ers beat the Pirates, 15 to 14.
With Ruth on the sidelines, the Yanks
won their second Straight from the
Cleveland Indians, 7 to 2, hammering
K v rls and I'hle. while Shawkey
breezed along in the most approved style.
Rommel set the Browns down with
four hits and a 5-tn-0 defeat, the only
feature of which was the fact that
Sisler took unto himself his twenty
fifth stolen base.
Billy Evans Says
(Editor's Note—This Is the second of a series of three articles by Billy
Evans on major league mid season baseball dope.l
Giants Still Appear Best in National
The team that beats the New York Giants w r ill win the pennant in the Na
tional League. That is substance is the prediction of ail the baseball experts
prior to the opening of the season. On tl e showing of the clubs so far In the
race that opinion still holds good. Asa matter of fact, the work covering the
first third of the race has strengthened the belief.
In only one respect have the Giants disappointed so lar—on the road. At the
Polo Grounds McGraw's club hus been unbeatable. One the road it has been only
so-so aggregation.
The Giants have a great ball club. It lanks with the old-time star aggre
gations like the Cubs and Athletics, when those two teams were at the top of
their game.
New York has a great Infield, is strong back of the plate and in the outfield.
The pitching is perhaps not ail that might be desired, but leave that problem to
McGraw to solve. If the Giants pitchers were showing the form they did
against the Yankees in the world series McGraw wouldn't have a worry.
Pittsburgh and St. Louis look like the most formidable contenders for the
runner-up honors while Brooklyn, Chicago, Cincinnati and Boston Blight be
rated as the dark horses.
„ -I- -I- -1* -I' -i- ->*
Boston Disappointment in Early Stages
Boston got away to a very bad start and disappointed badly in the early
stages of the National league race. Os late the club has been playing the
game it is capable of and Is closing up the gap. Mitchell says he will be sat
isfied with nothing worse than fourth.
Pitching is usually the problem that confronts every club. Pitching, or
k of pitching, has played havoc with the Cardinals and Pirates. Cooper, the
star of the Pittsburgh staff and one of t game's greatest left handers, has not
won with his usual consistency. Grimes, the star of the Brooklyn staff, had
trouble hitting his stride. Alexander of Chicago has had varying success.
V.’hen the star of a team's staff has trouble winning It raises havoc with the
team in general.
Grimes of Brooklyn appears to have recovered his form. With Reuther
going great and several of the recruits showing well, Brooklyn will probably
be very troublesome the rest of the way.
But New York looms up as the class of the field. Pittsburgh and St. Louis
are contenders. Brooklyn, Cincinnati, Chicago and Boston are close up, with
ay of them having a chance to prove troublesome nnd break Into the first di
vision.
Philadelphia will probably think it Is out of the league before the race Is
over. The Phillies appear destined to get the flag before coming Into the stretch.
In conclusion, the team that beats th; New York Giants is going to play In
the world aeries.

Latest Rumor Has
Willard as Jack ’s
Foe on Labor Day
Wills Next on Program at
Montreal Some Time With
in the Year.
BY DAVIS J. WALSH.
NEW Y’ORK, June 22.—Dempsey to
pole ax Willard again, this time at
Michigan City. Ind., on Labor Day;
Dempsey and Wills to put on their black
and white debate at Montreal some time
within the year.
This Is the good word thst goes out
as Jack Kearns, Frank Flournoy and
the worthy Mr. Rickard went Into
executive session today on the moot
question of Dempsey s immediate op
ponents. It come* from a mau so close
to the eminent Mr. Rickard that he can
reach into the promoter's vest pocket
with his elbow.
The Montreal site la certain, provided
Kearns and Paddy Mullins, manager of
Wills, can reach a financial agreement.
This seems entirely possible In view of
Kearns' statement upon his arrival here.
“I never have had an offer of any kind
of a purse for a Dempsey-Wills match,''
he declared. "If the New York State
athletic commission wants Dempsey to
fight Wills, let it produce a promoter
who will make a definite bonafide offer.
Then see how quickly Dempsey will do
business." . . . .
If the match is made the choice of
Montreal Is well nigh inevitable. Po
litical entanglements, it Is salt', will keep
It fur from Jersey City, there Is no
stadium in New York, unless Mr. Rick
ard gets out and builds one large enough
to make the thing a paying venture and
Michigan City Is not deemed to possess
the allure of the Canadian town.
They have only heard In a vague way
of Mr. Volstead up that way and It is
thought that affluent, albeit thirsty,
gentlemen will rush thither In droves.
They will come ns a source of consider
able comfort to the man at the box office
window. „ ......
Now, for Willard. Thst Individual
yearns for action against Dempsey and
the champion has no wish to disappoint
him Since tbe bout will draw more cash
customers than the scheduled push over
with Bill Brennan, the latter Is said to
be out.

Valuable Pointers on T \\
Fishing for Muscallonge
BY MORRIS ACKERMAN.
The musealonge Is without doubt the
bearcat of our fresh-water fish. Ho is
frequently referred to as the “tiger of
the fresh water." Call him what you
will, he is more sought after than any
heavy tackle smashing fin that pile* our
"swept" lakes and streams. For years
we have fished for this savage fellow and
our deductions are the cause of this
story. If you contemplate a try for the
musiky you may bo Interested In what
we have found out.
The best time to fish for them 1* Sept. 1
to 13. Because at that time the fish are
on the rocky shoals. The "next best”
time of year to fish for muscallonge Is
June 15 to July 1. The fish are then
through spawning, are hungry and active.
The best time of the day is from 4 p. m.
until dark. Fishing for them after dark
or on moonlight nights, a* for bass, sel
dom brings success.
An overcast sky is of considerable help.
Likewise a light wind that makes a bit
of '‘sea.” These protect your boat or
canoe from Immediate detection. The
most productive way of fishing Is by
trolling and tbe most effective lure a
double spoon, one copper, the other sil
ver. Number sevens. (A dozen other
lures are good.) Surely a spoon doesn't
look to a 'lunge like "something to cat.”
They strike It to kill.
Wheu trolling, If you hold the tip of
the rod straight back, parallel with the
boat, yon get a straight pull in setting
the hook and allow the fish no chance for
slack. The fish usually strikes head-on
and by holding the rod In this way you
can “keep him coming” and seldom lose
n strike. In June and .Toly the muscal
longe Is In the weeds. Trolling along the
edge of them Is naturally the placo for
best results.

RUTH NURSING
DEEP GROUCH
Bambino’s Mental Attitude at
Present Not Suited to
Home Run Hitting.
BY HENRY FARRELL.
NEW YORK, June 22,-Bahe Rath is
getting the idea that he Is down and
that every one is taking a lusty pedal
swing at him.
With his mind running on this track,
the Bam Is greasing the slides ahead of
him because he is not capacitated to car
ry a mental burden and keep his eye
on the ball. As long as he keeps one
ear tuned to the stand* he always will
hear something that will sink under his
hide and he can’t take It.
New Y’ork Is not bothering about the
number of umpires that Ruth can whip,
but 1* pondering over the question of
whether he la “through.”
He may never start hitting as long as
he assumes the role of a martyr and
casts about for sympathy. If he slumps
In his home run hitting he is through
with major league baseball, according
to the opinion of many.
Ruth is a high strung, nervous, tem
peramental Individual with a most sen
sitive disposition. He Is entertaining
a terrific grouch that will keep him Just
where he is If he doesn't come out of it.

MORVICH STILL
A FAVORITE IN
LATONIA RACE
Block’s Colt Remains Choice
of Wise Ones, Despite De
feat on Eastern Track.
IN FAST WORKOUTS
LATONIA, Ky., June 22.—Although
Whiskaway’s victory over Morvich in the
Carleton Stakes is expected to shorten
the odds on the Kentucky Derby winner In
the $50,000 Latonia Special here Saturday,
Ben Block's speedy colt is virtually cer
tain to go to the post a favorite. That
upset at Aqueduct has not convinced Mor
vieh's followers that he is not the best
bet entered in Saturday s rich feature.
In his workouts here the son of Runny*
made has turned in some mighty impres
sive running. Old horsemen who have
watched him agree with the statement
of one of them who said:
“i don t see how YV’hishaway ever beat
him.”
The opinion of the old campaigners
seems to be that Morvich was not right in
last Saturday s affair.
Most of them think that his long lay
off after the Kentucky Derby dulled the
fine edge M his condition and that he
was not in rorm. They point to the fact
that Morvich's jockey had to use the
whip as an indication that the Block
horse, usually a fiont runner, was not
himself.
Reports from Aqueduct that Whiska
way has been working out in wonderful
form have not dampened the ardor of
those who still regard Morvich as the
greatest horse now running on the Amer
ican turf.
Whiskaway, Broomster, Olympus,
Prudery and a couple other members of
the Whitney stable were expected to ar
rive here today. R. T. Wilson’s Pillory,
picked by many as the real rival of Mor
vich, also is en route.
The advance guard of what is expected
to be the largest crowd that ever thronged
this historic track began to trickle in
today. Hotels began refusing reserva
tions days ago and Cincinnati, which will
play hoßt to the Latonia visitors, already
is wondering how it can accommodate all
who will come for the race. Special
plans to care for visitors have been
worked out by the Chamber of Commerce
and other organizations.
