Boston Black 80: At Hsdili
Field—Mills Or Lengyel
0n Mound.

The Springwood-Nationals will
play their first twilight game of the
season. Wednesday. June 23. when
they clash with the Boston Black
Sex. of Bridgeport. at Hadik Field.

The Black Box are rated as one oi
the ieading colored professional
teams of New England and the io-
cais will have to travel at top speed
it they hope to stay in the running
with this outfit.

Manager Hy Landy will

 

start

'rony Mills on the mound if his arm

is in good shape. but if not it will
be either Lengiel or an outside
twirler.

This team is being brought here
at considerable expense to the man-
agement and it is expected that a
large crowd will turn out to greet
them. '

GEORGES BOXES
THIS EVENING

PHILADELPHIA. June l'L—‘l'helr
training completed and both report-
ed to be in excellent condition.
Georges Carpentler. French veteran.
and Tommy Loughran of Philadel-
phia. rested yesterday in prepara-
tion for their ten~round light-
heavyweight battle here tonight.
‘As the hour or the encounter
drew near. it became increasingly
difficult to ascertain which boxer was
considered the favorite. in some
quarters odds of 6 to 5 on the
Frenchman were reported. while the
local boxing fraternity was confident
that Loughran would emerge the
victor.

desire.

No-mere desire for change will not ex-
. plain why 5 many thousands of smokers
all over the country are changing from
other cigarettes to Chesterfield.

It‘ s something more fundamental.

No—price does not account for this

sweeping tum-about in cigarette pop-
ularity, for Chesterfield is sold at the

popdlarprioe—it costs the same as any
of the other largest selling brands.

Yes—that’s the answer. It is taste and
taste alone that explains Cheeterfield’s
sweeping gains. And taste is a matter ‘
of tobacco quality.

it seems the Brooklyn Dodgers missed a guess when they let Pitcher
“Jumbo Jim" Elliott go to the Seattle Indians of the Pacific Coast League.
Elliott got away to a sensational start, winning his first nine games. He's
one of the biggest hurlers in baseball, standing "6-4" am! weighing 242.
Perhaps the Dodgers would like to have him on their payroll now.

 

 

ball games I recom-

For freak
mend the one staged at Cleveland,

Juries between the Indians and the

New York Yankees.

Here are some of the unusual
things that happened:

To open. Cleveland won from New
15-3. the worst defeat the
league-leading Yankees have suffer-
ed all season.

Buckeye, Cleveland's heaywcight
southpaw. aside from holding the
Yankees safe. was the fielding and
batting hero of the afternoon.

in four trips to the plate he made
as many hits. including a home run.
double and two singles.

In the field. with the bases filled
ad no one out. he caught a line
drive and started a triple play that
got him out of a. deep hole.

"Incidentaily. Babe Ruth made his
19th home run of the season.

i O ‘

Generally considered the greatest
outfielder in the history of the game.
Speaker has never been far behind
as a batter. - ‘

A left-handed batsman, Speaker
has always been able to hit either
kind of pitching with equal case.
This spring he slumped at the bat
and has been having his troubles
getting out of it.

If at the opening of the season.
some one had suggested that before
the race was one-third over Man-
ager Speaker would be sending in a
substitute batter for Outnelder
Speak.. the idea would have been

ridiculed. Yet it so happened that
Manager Speaker did that .very
thing.

In the final inning of the game
with the Yankees. June 6, with a
run needed to tie and a man on sec-
ond. George L'hie, hard hitting
pitcher. was sent in to bat for
Speaker. .

It was ti, first time in his long
career as a. major lesguer that a
pinch- hitter swung for the great
Tristam.

Speaker put personal pride aside
for the hope of victory.

O O a

Will .the added responsibility of
managing a majorilcague ball club
defeat the desire of Rdgers Horns-
by to top Ty Cobb‘s record of lead-
ing a major league in batting for
nine successive years?

Cobb piled up such iremarkahle
performance in the merican
League prior to taking up the man-
agerial reins at Detroit.

Last season was Hornsby's first
as manager since he took the club's
direction after it had got away to a
very poor start; the showing of the
club for the year didn't enter into
his worries to any great extent.

This year it's different. The Car-
dinals. picked by a. majority of the
experts as the "dark horse" of the
National League race. have failed to
live up to expectations.

No doubt this has been a distinct
disappointment to Hornsby, who
ngurod only two clubs in the league
as superior to his team. Pittsburgh
and New York.

No doubt these worries have al-
ready bean reflected in his batting.
since his average is below standard

farthiatbaaoftlsorsar.

 

FRANCIS OUTMET—
D0 .\OT PRESS
it is difficult to comince golfers
in the first year or so of play that
they should not press. No one likes
to be iniarlably short off the ice
'1 lie sole remedy seems to he to slug.
And slug we do. The cost is fiiglit-
fui in slices. hooks. lost bulls. top--
ped ones and dubs. But this is not
to be reckoned with if the player
occasionally lands on one and gets
that delightful thrill \‘IlItIl only
(omes when we see our tee shot
brassie or iron out up space. We ini-
mediatey lime it bred in us that
such a. shot represents our game.
that it is always to be strivcn for.

How much better for us if we
studied results at the start. Take a
round of golf so played and let us
keep our card. Then let us play an-
other round. striiiiig not for distance
but for accuracy and surcness i
think anyone will find that the lat-
ter results in much loner medals
and for better matches.

After all. the results is what we
strive for on the links. And this re-
sult must be based on the entire
round. not upon our good fortune in
occasionally sending a screaming
shot down the fairway.

 

 

No Home Runs Are Hit

For the first time this season no
home runs were. hit in major
league baseball games yesterday.
I On two occasions only one homer

was turned in for a day but until

\rsterdn) at least one has been
registered. Lube Ruth still sets
the pace for both leagues with his
total of :12. while second place
honors go to lmttomley of tho
