EXPERTS FAVOR HEENEYTO WIN Fairhaven. N. J.. July 1* (INS)-lf you waul a tip they say Is hotter than the other end of your cigarette, you will take the odds one week from tomorrow night at the Yankee Stadium and send the sheaves along on old tomato Heeney to win the heavyweight championship of the work). This, anyhow', was the concensus of expert opinion today In the camp of the challenger. Almost unanimously, the lads who stand hack on the fringe of the throng the better to see all, hear all and know nothing concede that Heeney has a good chance of • taking Tunney for his pompadour on the night of the twentysixth. Some few of them even go so far as to deviate he has a great chance. At least two of them already have gone to bat, slightly out of turn, with downright predictions that the challenger will win. Heeney, as a matter of fact, has a real chance, more so than the oppor-1 tunity the odds must grant a man I who goes in there with the orthodox I number <f hands, eyes, foot and arch) supporters. But this overnight rush ' of sentiment to the side of the Now | Zealander. 1 think, may be traced to I some extejit to a natural desire to! copper what happened in Philadel-1 phia two years ago. At that time, the lads climbed j aboard the Imndwagon ami took over I the cornet obligate! Almost in toto, they solemnly averred Dempsey) couldn’t lose. Abont six or eight in- ( spired souls, all told, closed their eyes and took a hazardous plunge oft i the other side. They picked Tunney and slept fitfully, if at all, that night, i They knew they were running in the 1 outside lane against all percentage 1 but figure-] that- fame was not to be ; had in trailing with the mob. I’m ) afraid many of the proHeeney men of today are looking, instinctively I rather than intentionally, for the ■ same break. At that, the boy could be in a tougher spot than the present one. Tunney is far from right according to tile last look I gave him some few I days ago. leading one to suspect that j he might be ready for the laundress ) if tossed in with a real good fighter. ; Does Heeney qualify in that league? ' Some right good judges of fights who I have watched him since the early : days here say that he does. This' point, however, is open to sober : debate. Watching The Scorehoard -—RLRI — Yesterday's hero: Clyde Beck of the Chicago Cubs who hit a home run with the bases filled to defeat the Phillies, 4 to 3. It was the eighth straight victory for the Cubs. Charley Root pitched a superior game, holding Philadelphia to six hits. The Pittsburgh Pirates also scored their eighth consecutive victory by defeating the Boston Braves, 7 to 6. Three Boston pitchers were touched for a total of 14 hits. Al Shealy, rookie Yankee pitcher, helped win his own game by hitting i a home run and New York defeated | Cleveland, 4 to 2. Dazzy Vance could not fool the St. * Louis Cardinals and the Brooklyn Robins dropped:a game, 1 to 7. That made the teams split even in the fourgame series. The Boston Red Sox came out of their slump to win from the Chicago White Sox, 9 to 6. Lefty Grove gave the Detroit Tigers 10 hits, but kept them well scattered and Philadelphia won an easy game 6 to 2. St, Ixntis won its fourth straight game from Washington aided by steady pitching by Stewart, who shut out the Senators, 5 to 0.

The Union City Country Club golf team sef&mped the Portland golfers, at Union City, last Sunday, the final score being 27-6. Everett “Luke Renner, former Geneva and Portland high school athlete, who recently completed a two-year course at Muncie Normal, where he played a prominent part in athletfrs has accepted a position as a teacher in the Rushville city schools for the coming school year. He will teach the 6B grade in one of the ward schools, have charge of the Junior high school athletics and act as an assistant coach in the senior high school. Another promoter of an independent baseball team has tossed in the sponge after taking a hard blow to his financial solar plexus after each game. Manager Snyder of the Kendallville Greys ordered the team disbanded for the season after it had defeated Antwetp, Ohio, 9-8, last Sunday, due to small ctowds and poor support. Like' independent basketball, it is getting more difficult each year for indepen- ; dent baseball teams to make expenses. Golf, motoring and various other at- ■ tractions have made great Inroads on , the popularity of small town baseball, while high school and college basketball have made life miserable for 'he treasurers of independent basketball teams. ; : "Coach Pete Jolly, the head coach t of Muncie high school, is looking ahead with the full intent of annexing , another state basketball ciown. Jolly [ who is a supervisor of play in one of the city’s playgrounds during the sum- * mer, has organized basketball classes |

That which arouses us to this spasm Is the appearance of "Sport Fever," a summer sport chatter colyiim in the Decatur Democrat Wei- ) come, Brother.
