1 LOSES HOPE OF TITLE BOUT “Declares C h a m p i o 11 Jack Wants to Hang On to Crown As Ad- vertisement 'ARRIVES HOME ..u—ew—u May Be Matched With Gene Tunney f o r Battle L a t c This . Month NEW YORK. Sept. 5.—-—I~iurry Wills and Gene Tunney may have their much discussed iistlo encoun- ter before the close of the outdoor boxing season nitm all. '1 he Negro heavyweight champion is back from his European trip looking g1eat. ap- parently feeling chipper. and talking fight in a most convincing manner. Harry is vvllling to tight Jack Dempsey any11vviicie and at any time and even on a winner take all ba— sis. he says, but admits that he hasn't much hope of ever getting the champion into fine ring. Such being the case, he is ready to do business with anyone whom his manager. Paddy Mullins. may care to select. “Could you get in shape on short notice?" he was asked. shortly af- ter he had stepped off the Aquitan- la, "for a tough opponent?" Tough Ones? “Tough ones," giggled Harry. “I didn‘t know there were any around.’ Tunney’s name was then brought up. It is plain that Wills doesn't take Gene very striously, but he in- timated if the public vvas in favor of the match and his manager ap- proved, it was all right with Harry. Mullins then made a little ex- planation of Harry's immediate ac- tivities. It seems Wills is bound by .an unbreakable verbal agreement that the Black Panther is to box under the promotion of Messrs. Blaufuss. Cullen. Kline and Black Better known as the Four Horse- less Horsemen, over in Newark around Sept. 28. The Four Horcless Horsemen had Wills under contract early in the summer to box for them and they released Harry so he could box Charley Weinert on the Italian Hos- pital show card. Of course with the agreement that Wills would live 11p to his Newark engagement before the closing of the outdoor season. The Newark promoters have five opponents from. whom to select an opponent for Wills. The five heavy- weights under consideration are King Solomon. Jack De Mave, Jim Maloney. Jack Sharkey and Bartley Madden. The only way that Wills can be Lil‘llgllt to do business else- ~whers is through some' satisfactory arrangement by other promoters with the Four Homeless Horsemen. Jimmy De Forest, the Polo Grounds A. C. matchmaker. is said to have already been in conference with Paddy Mullins and there seems a. strong likelihood of the battle be- ing brought off early in October or late in September at iln- home of the Giants. The Polo Grounds A. C. would be compelled to buy off the BILLY EVAN FREAK PLAY. The old adage. "There is nothing new under the sun." doesn’t hold good for baseball. As a matter of fact the national pastime just teems with new and unusual oddities. After one has been actively con- nected with baseball for a score of years. there is perhaps a. tendency ‘ ”to become rather blase. Each battle is just a ball game and the players are either out or safe. Fortunately. baseball produces 141 many thrills that Just as an active participant god; the impression ' there is nothing new under the sun. something comes up to make him alter his opinion. In a recent game I had such it happening. Can you picture two men being thrown out at the plate almoat simultaneously on a two- bugger? As you read the above you no doubt are saying the very idea is absurd. Well it actually happened and I had the thrill of calling both men out. The Detroit players, with a grin, now refer to me as the ambidex- trous umpire. I waved one player out with my left hand, the other with my right. C l C When I finished the decision both hands were higher in the air than if some yegg had been pressing a 42 against my "tummy" while he re- lieved me of my bank roll. 3 t 0 STAGE SETTING. Here are the details 0 Mia unus- ual double play which has never be- ' fo're come up in the American Lea- guc. I understand it happened once in the National League in 11 game at Boston. The done i get is that Frank Snyder. catcher of the Ne York Giants, turned the trick. Here was the setting in the De- mic game: Fred Haney. a fast man. was on first; Johnny Bossier, not so tut. wuasecond. One was out ' oil the batsman drove a long fly «111,» field.

Negro Girl Is Clever Baseball Pitcher Lizzie, North Carolina's Negro ,giri baseball pitcher, fanned seven batsmen and hit one in a recent game, says "Capper‘s Weekly." For three innings the opposing team didn't get a man on first. and when Lizzie vvhlffcd- the next two up and caught the runner napping. Lizzie is a gangling sixteen-year- old wit hklnky hair and a face as black as a cloudy night. but. accord- lng to her ISO-pound catcher, "that gal can but an ant off a catcrpillar's back at a hundred feet and never raise a. hair." Four Horseless Horsemen and 4I‘ll: Forest probably will be willing to do so if ‘1. reasonable arrangement [can he arrived at. "I’ve about given up hopes of ever getting Dempsey in the ring," de- clared Wills. “I don't suppose I can blame him in a way. He wants to hang on to his title. as it is always worth some money to him. even if he doesn't. do any more real fight- ing. He’lmovvs that if he ever mccis me he. won't have any more title. So just for that he won't play with Harry Wills. "I'll box the champion State or countsy and on a winner take. all basis. Mr. Dcmpscv vvlll sure. find me an easy chap to do business with in any and third. Haney. certain the hell would not be caught. dashed madly for second as the pill sped on its way. Flagstead just reached the fly with the tips of his fingers and had no chance to make the catch. How- ever. he so slowed down the ball by contact with it that it rolled only a. short distance after striking the ground. ‘ When the ball was recovered by 1. lagstead Bossier was‘well on his way to third and Haney wasn't more than 15 feet back of him. The race continued to the plate. Haney gaining slightly at each step. Catcher Stokes of the Boston team received the relay Just ahead of Bassler and touched him out as he slid for the inside of the plate. With the same motion he put the ball on Honey's spikes as he ,at- tempted to avoid the touch by hook- ing for the outside of the plate. 3 O C It would have been a tough spot for a. one- armed arbitrator. I’under- stand there are several of them in the minors this year. TRIO 0F WINS. Speaking of. freak happenings in baseball. one must not overlook a recent pitching performance of Elam Van Glider of the St. Louis Browns against the Athletics. The Browns gave the league-lead- ing Athletics an awful jolt by trim- ming them threestraight and pecu- liarly enough. Van Glider received credit for winning all of them. As it happened. Van didn't start in any of the games but went into each as relief pitcher. In the trio of games, Van was dropped into a tough spot with his club behind. He. held the Mackmen and the Browns proceeded to get him the winning 111m. 1 cannot recall a. single instance W'hele a toilet pitcher has been for- innate enough to be credited wi‘. h winning three successive gt mes.

Changes Made In Spheroid During Past Few‘ Weeks—— Fewer Home Runs PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 5.-—-'I‘he lively ball. maker of prolific home run records and the bone of con- tention in the majors for several years. appears to be no more. Don't get the impression that home runs are immediately going to become a. rarity and pltchers' battles will be the rule rather than the ex~tlon. v1 The ball is still lively but it is lell lively than it was, possibly by 25 per cent. The inner conivtruction of the baseball used in the majors has suffered a drastic change within the past month. What was known as the lively ball had a cork center about one-half inch in diameter. This was enclos- ed in two hemispheres of live gray rubber which were Joined together. making a cork center within a rub- ber ball.

For during the rut the woodland mon- arch casts discretion to the four winds I. like many other moose hunters. have hunted far and wide.

Personally I think that moose hunting during the calling season should be abolished by law. The big animal is shot under extremely un- fair circumstances. However.» the moose season is op- en in most; Canadian provinces at least during part of the calling sea- son. There is no doubt of a certain thrill on the part of the hunter when the call is answered. From the time your guide re- ceives the first faint answer until the biz hull, with massive horns. comes scraping through the bush into the open, this thrill is main- talned. It is a never-to-be~forgot- glnner. Your next trip after the calling season will be one of, still-hunting when the element of trickery is less pronounced.
