Billie)“ Busy DI] Twenty-four chances insona after- noon at shortstop. Such was the busy day "Topper" Rigney of Boston put in on July is in a double-header with Cleveland. In the second game the former Detroit Tyger star, who has added much strength to the Red Sox. all but equalled two American League records that have stood for more than a score of years. In the opening game Rigney pre. pared himself for what was to fol- low by handling four putouts and five assists. several of them being of a. difficult nature. ‘In the final half of the twin-bill of four putouts and 11 assists. His sensational fielding aided greatly in putting over Pitcher Iieilnach's first win in a Boston uniform. O O 0 Close to Record ' In handling 15 chances in a nine- inning game. Itigncy came within two of equalling the American League record. Back in 100:. Bobby Wallace of the St. Louis Browns took care of 17. The major league record of chances accepted by a shortstop is 10, made by Danny Richardson of the Washington club, then a member of the National League circuit. It he cited in the second game of a dole-header on June 20. 1802. Taking care of 11 assists falls one short of the American League reo- ord made by Kid Elberfold. then playing with Detroit. It is a. po- culiar coincidence that this feat also came in the second game of a den- ble-header staged September I. 1001. The major league record for as- sists'is 14. made by Tommy Corcor- an. of the Cincinnati club on August 7, 1903. _ While nlgney fell just shy of the American League marks, his 24 chances at short for one afternoon is just about a record for one day's play. «V' 0 O 0 Six inRow One of the peculiar features of ngney'a performance in the second game of the double-header was his whirlwind finish. In the seventh and eighth innings he retired six successive batters. Rigney to First Baseman Todt. Itigney's busy afternoon empha- sizes the importance of high-class work at shortstop. Unquestionabiy it is the most exacting position in the infield. Three or four clubs in the Ameri- can League have suffered severely this year because of erratic work at the all-important position. 0f the new shortstops breaking in this your. the play of Billy Hunne- field of Chicago has been the most impressive.

July 28. —-You may want to hear something about the man who promoted this town's first legalized boxing contest in more than ll years; the man who is mainly responsible for the comeback of the sport here: the men who mid- westerners consider a greater vrnniotional genius than To: Rick- ard. His name is James Code Austin Mullen. he is 02 years old, Irish as Puddy' s pig. gray as an eagle and dynamic as they make 'em. The day I met him he was sit- ting in his oiilco in West Randolph street in his shirt sleeves eating a. fish sandwich and talking into the mouthpiece of a telephone that seemed never to be idle. “Who Bill Swift from Aurora? Sure. I remember you. You want me to hold one of my best 01.:0 seats. for you? It'll be here for you" The Duke of the Loop went back After a moment or so he explained he had made a habit of taking care of all ticket requests personally back in the days when he was promoting little shows in the neighboring vil- Isles. “I intend to keep it up if I can." he added. “Those fellows made my little shows so over when a 82.000 investment was a lot of money. I feel that they are entitled to the same kind of service at these bigger shows" They Were Worst Seats. The Duke of the Loop then turn- ed to is business associate. Harry llochs tder, and requested him to pick out the best if. 20 seat he had loft and put it_ away for Jim Mad- (ion (The irony of this was that the $2 20 seats were the cheapest and consequently the worst seats mailnble for the championship fight between Rocky Kansas and Sammy Mnndell. ) lllinois admits that Mullen did more to bring boxing back to l legalized status than any other indie vldual in the state; he gave prodi- giously of his money. energy and ino iluence, of which he has plenty on all three counts. And he did so largely because of his boundless en- thusiasm for the sport. \fullen has been an incurable box- ' in; nut ever since the day Eddie Mcv noorty old- time middleweight. came into his life back in 1000 when he (Mullen) was an umpire in the Wis- consin- Illinois League. All during the game Mullen was razzod \iclously by a certain leather- lungerl individual in the bleachers. After the game Mullen set out to discover who the heckler Was. It developed to he McGoorty. who was then just starting as a fighter. Somehow or other, what had all DIAMOND DISPUTES By BILL! EVANS. CAN any substitute player he re- moved at the discretion of the man- ager or his team? 0 O Yes, with the exception of a pitcher who has been substituted. Batters and fielders. other than a pitcher. can be shifted at will. When a substitute pitcher is sent to the box. he cannot be removed. until he has pitched to a batsman. who has either been retired or reached first. In all other cases of substitution. the player entering the game takes the place of the player for whom he is substituting. 1 intensive work on promising players for the poaitlon of shortstOp. 0 O 0 Week at Short Aside from inferior pitching. the slump of the champion Washington club this year can be trscd to short- imp play. or better perhaps. lack of t.

TEMPERATURE OF HOMELAND HELPS NURMI NEW YORK. July 23.-—The rea- son for Nurmi's superiority as an athlete lies in the 'low average an- nual temperature of his homeland! That's the conclusion you may draw from a study just completed by Guillermo iioxmark. in charge of the weather bureau at Bucnos Airrs. lloxmurk went over the points scored by the. athletes of 22 nations that participated in the Olympic games at Antwerp in 1920 and at Paris In 1924. Comparing those with the mean annual temperatures of the coun- tries. he found a remarkable coin- oidcnce. The countries, in order of their athletic prowess, also followed along in almost the same rank In regard to their climate! So, argues l-loxmark, “it looks as though there is a. close connection between temperature and physical energy. the people of cool countries being stronger than those of warm." For proper comparison, Hoxmark divided the population of each com- peting country by the number of points scored at Antwerp and Paris. to get an index number, based more equitably on the number of people in each nation to each point scored. Hef found that Norway scored the lowest. showing the smallest number of inhabitants per point. Giving this country the basic index number of one. he was able to rank all other countries accordingly. By this method. relating points to population. he found Norway, Fin— land. Sweden and Denmark ranking one-two-tbree and four, in both the Antwerp and Paris games. Looking over their mean. annual tempera- lures he found these four countries almost in the same order. with the coolest climate of all those particl- paling.
