Moose baseball teams will meet. Games poeponed because ot tne tournament this week will be played later, Cochran stated. Fans are asked to note the change In timePut ('.oH’ee's junior Rotary baseball team, kept a level head and romped away to a J 13-6 victory over Buck Baxter’s Moose d'iamondeers in the final game of the Legion I elimination tourney. The vicI lory carries with it the right ' lor the Rotary team to pl ty the Muncie Juniors, Dela- ; ware county champions in] the district tourney at Alex-] andria next Saturday after-] noon at 1 o’clock (daylight ' saving time.) More than 900 1 fans watched the game. For five Innings last night’s 1 game was a pitcher's battle —Ogg | 1 on the mound for the winners ami 1 Feasel, Moose southpaw, tossed some great ball. Ogg was supported on the receiving end by Omlor;and Strickler did the catching for 1 Feasel’s offerings, Doth pitchers were cool through- ' out the contest. Feasel bested ' Ogg on the number of strike-outs i ' | but the itotary team nicked him ‘ I for 10 hits while the Moose man- 1 j aged to gather in 7 off of Ogg. - j Both boys are great twirlers. j' In the first inning Johnnie! Hain, Rotary center fielder crack-i ed a Texas Leaguer just over short-atop and scored when Somite I Ehinger smacked an infield hit. I | The count remained 1-0 in favor of 1 1 Rotary until the end of the second 1 inning. On a couple of good clean hits and a couple of errors the Moose team went into the lead 4-1. The Coffeemen knotted the count in the | fourth and the Moose team went j ahead again in the last of the f fourth. At the beginning of the 2 sixth inning the score was 6-6 but <1 the Spoke boys went into the lead a 10 6 for the first time since the f first inning. Feasel was pitching great ball. o and the runs were made due to a | V great blow-up of the Moose sup- 1 " port linked with the beady work e of base-running by the Coffeemen. 0 From that moment on ths Moose s fielding was erratic and the win- 11 ners scored almost at will. In the last half of the seventh, *• with darkness about half-way ar- ’’ rived, Dale Myers, Moose first n baseman, started what looked for I u s a moment to be a rally. Myers ( smacked the ball for the longest a hit of the game and when he got j between third and home, he turned to go back to third and was tagged out by Blythe. The rest of e the inning was short and the next p two men up were out. p I Ogg. besides pitching some good j r j ball for the winners, accounted for u two Rotary runs and was credited I h

j with two clean hits. Johnnie Hain cracked the ball for three safeties while Myers was the heavy hitter for the Inkers eracking out two hits, one a three-bagger. The Rotary team and Coach Coffee will leave for Alexandria Saturday morning and will meet the Muncie Juniors there Saturday afternoon. If successful In lhe first game t'ne Decatur t-am will play again Saturday afternoon at 5 o'clock. Lineup and summary: Rotary AB R II I’o. A. E.

It was a great match and was close until the last few foursomes reported. Yesterday’s match lacked much of the color of tourneys of other years oecause “Nick Altrock’’ Simmons. of Bluffton, chief i.ierry-mak-er of the Parlor City team and one of northern Indiana's best 140 1 shooters was called to Keystone on business. Decatur golfers played consistently and a number of 80's were marked up. The day was ideal for golf and many golfers on both sides had good rounds. The match marked the second home match for Decatur and the second victory. Other matches are being scheduled by Herman Myers, captain of the local team. o Everett Davison of Bluffton called on Miss Mary Jane Fritzinger at the Adams County Memorial Hospital yesterday. Miss Fritzinger is I recovering from an operation she I underwent a few weeks ago at the I, hospital.

Elimination Baseball Tourney

TENNIS TEAM IS PREPARED New York, July 17- <U.R>—America's youthful Davis cup team prepared today to meet Italy in lhe 1930 inter-zone finals without tne aid of three of tenuis' brilliant lilternat onullsts William T. Tilden, 111, William Johnston and Francis T Hunter who played the major roles in the IT. S. Davis cup record ■ of the past decade. I Tilden, who teamed with Johnston to retain International supremacy for the last seven years, will be present when the mutches J,.,en at Roland Carros stadium. Auteuil. France, tomorrow, but i only in the role of a coach and advisor. Hunter, veteran of throe Dav's cup campaigns, ami John-; ] ston have retired from Internation-1 al play- , , -I With the famous triumvirate off ; the squad. America's hopes were I centered on Wilmer Allison, John Van Ryn, George Lott anil Johnny i Doeg. Allison. Van Ryn and Lott saw action in the Davis cup challenge round last year and Lott Played in the inter-zone competition in 1928, but Doeg will be making his flr-t appearance in European Davis cup play. The American team is regarded i as an almost certain winner over i I Italy and the matches held inter- i ! -st chiefly as a test of the United l States’ prospects in the challenge round with France. Baron H. L. Demorpurgo and Georgio De Stefanl are certain to represent Italy in the singles with Placido Ga’llni and either Denorrnrgo or Del Bono teaming for the doubles. While Tilden is definitely out of •he inter-zone matches there still 's a possibility that he may join the American team for the challenge round against France. He rejected an invitation to play against Italy because of a contract to report Davis cup matches for ] ! i newsnaper syndicate. The I’. S. Lawn Tennis Associa-| tion prohibits players from writing ! about matches in which they engage. without special permission. If the Italian-American ser es indicates the United States’ chances against France depend upon Tilden's presence on the team, it is virtually certain that the Philadelphian will cancel his writing contract or that the U. s. L. T. A., will waive the player writer rule. MAY ORGANIZE CONFERENCE

Delaware, 0., July 17 —(U.R)—DePauw University and Wabash College have entered into a two year athletic schedule agreement with file five members of the Buckeye intercollegiate athletic conference, t was announced at Ohio Weeleyan University today by Dean William L.

Members of the Buckeye conference are: University of Cincinnati. Denison. Miami, Ohio University. and Ohio Wesleyan. If at the end of the two-year agreement, all schools concerned have found the relationship agreeable, it was thought likey that a permanent organization may be “ffected, including the seven schools, witli perhaps one added Such an arrangement, it was pointed out. would require change of name of the conference and perhaps minor changes in control. It i« yet undecided whether games played with Depauw and Wabasli will be included in the Buckeye conference standings during the term of the schedule agreement. o — BASEBALL BRIEFS * ♦ —— —_< Brooklyn’s Robins held the commanding position in the National league pennant race today and wire in a favorable spot to increase their lead during the next week of competition. ‘The Robins earned an even break with the Chicago Cubs in the opening doubleheader of a 5-game series and now are assured of holding first place regardless of the outcome of the remainder of the series.

LIGHTWEIGHT ! MATCH TONIGHT < New York. July 17.- U.R>-With 11 the lightweight championship of 1 the world at stake, but with singularly little interest over the out-,-onie. Simmy Mandell, and Al Sing- ; er will tn et in a 15 round bout at I Yankee stadium tonight. The deplorable ending of recent] championship bouts have caused I a widespread Indifference aa to the , euteome of this contest, although New York tight fans are interested in Singer's winning the title, and have made him a 7 to 5 favorite. ] Mandell, the champion, who has] defended his title only three times since lie won it on a Chicago decision from Rocky Kansas, Buffalo, in 1926. has rightly bem reported | as having great diff.eulty in making the lightweight limit ot 135, , pounds. Sammy has been forced ] to go without liquids since he wound up training, at Grangeburg I Wednesday, and the title holder was to be put through a severe, drying out process before weighing j in th s afternoon. Despite this handicap. Mandell figures to defeat Singer, who is far from his equal as an experienced boxer. The Bronx boy is no I great shucks as a hitter, and Mandell lias weathered punches of 1 . 1 many a more formidable foe. With fair weather promised for | I this evening, the bout is due to
