LOCAL GRIDMEN | BEGIN DRILLS UNDER HORTON More Than 40 Boys Turn Out For First Football Drill Os Season More than 10 Decatur high school Yellow Jackets reported to Coach Tiny Horton yesterday for the first football practice. Uniforms were giv-i en out to the candidates and most of the afternoon was spent in preliminary instructions and some kicking practice. The most important announcement made yesterday was that all | home games would be played on' Niblick field, just east of the Mon-1 roe street river bridge. The change I was made after it was learned that, the Country club field had been leased as a farm tract. Many. Decatur business men were glad of the change as the Niblick field is much closer to Decatur and gives them an opportunity to see practices as well as games. Coach Horton said that no time would he lost and practices would continue throughout this week ami; next. A number of veterans from ■ last year’s squad reported y ester-1 day along with 20 new candidates, i Horton said that he would have a line averaging more than 175 pounds to start the season with. Tom Allwein, son of Mrs, Grace AUwein of this city, formerly of Shelby, Ohio, who played in the backfield of the Ohio school’s team i last season was one of the new players to report for practice here. He will be eligible immediately in-j asmnch as the family moved to this city this summer. Coach Horton said that his ,big-1 gest problem would be to organize | a backfield, because most of last j year's backfield was lost by graduation. Coach Herb Curtis will return to; Decatur Saturday and will assist I Horton in the early drills of the | football team. The first home game I will be with Auburn here Septem-' her IS. o BARGAINS — Bargains tn living ‘ room, dining room suite, mat- i tresses and rugs. St-ckey and Co.

Baseball Player Mixed on Team by Uniforms SAYRE, Pa. (U.R) —George Norton. a local semi-professional Inseball player, wore so many different uniforms in one week recently that he was never certain whore he was to play the next day. He started the week by playing i shortstop with the Binghamton ■ team in the New York-Pennsyl- | vania League, to play a vacancy 1 created by an ii)jury. Two days later he was at the same position for the Towanda team. The fourth day his services were required by I the Ithaca team. CHAPMAN WINS I SPEED TITLE I (Chicago, Aug. 26—(UP) — Ben | Chapman, New York Yankees' outfielder. held the mythical speed championship of the American League as a result of his easy victory | over Carl Reynolds. Chicago White ' sox outfielder. Chapman, who leads the major leagues in stolen bases with 51 beat Reynolds by about 10 feet in ; a 100-yard race. Both ran in baseball uniforms. Chapman was timed i in 10 1-5 seconds, considered fast i time in view of this attire and the i condition of the outfield over which I the race was staged. Chapman has defeated Dusty Cooke, Myril Hoag ami Sam Byrd of the Yankees and Bill Cissell of the White Sox in match races. Chapman stole his 50th and 51st bases of the year in the ninth inni ing of yesterday game, stealing both second and third after he had sing- ' led. This is the most bases any i major league player has stolen in one year since George Sisler stole I the same number in 1922. That Chapman will reach the 60 mark | bet'o e the season ends seemed probable today. That. However, would be far from the record of 96 which j Ty Cob set in 1915. o MAJOR LEAGUE LEADERS The following averages compiled by United Press include games of August 25: Player, Club G AB R H Pct !

CUBS TAKE BIG I TUMBLE ON TRIP I — New York. Aug. 26. —(U.R)—Rog- , ers Hornsby's Chicago Cubs, who started the season with high and justifiable hopes of winning the National league pennant, today seemed headed for the bottom of the first division. Five games behind the second place New York Giants and but one game better off than the fourth place Brooklyn Robins, the Cubs today meet the Giants in a double header. If they lose both games, they Vvill be tied with Uncle Robbies clowns. The Cubs dropped a couple to the Giants yesterday, 5 to 3 and 7 to 1. String pitching by Carl Hubbell ■ana Mel Ott’s home run with two men on. was largely responsible for the Cubs' defeat in the opener. The i second game was all over after the third inning, when, with two out, Fullis, Allen and Terry singled and Hogan and Ott hit home runs. This little spree gave the New Yorkers five runs. The St. Ixauis Cardinals made it three in a row over the Boston Braves, winning 4 to 1 in ten in- i nings. Brooklyn's Robins and the Pittsburgh Pirates divided a double bill, ' the Robins winning the nigheap, 5 to 0. after dropping the opener. 5 • to 3. Freddy Heimach, portly Robin southpaw, let the Pirates down with three hits in the second game. In the third double header of the day the Phillies and Cincinnati Reds broke even, the Reds winning the first game. 8 to 0. and losing the second. 1 to 0. Lucas allowed the Phils five hits in the first game—the same number his mates were able to get off Elliott in the second. Play in the American was featured by the New York Yankees' 8 to il) victory over the Chicago White Sox. It was New York's first shutout victory of the year. Herb Pennock, veteran southpaw, was the', winning pitcher. The world champion Philadelphia Athletics made it three in a row ; over the St. Louis Browns, winning i 4 to 1. Ed Rommel allowed but six hits. Washington's Senators had little trouble in turning back the Detroit Tigers, 5 to 1. Boston and Cleveland were rained out. Yesterday's hero: Herb Pennock, veteran left-hander, who held the . Chicago White Sox. to six hits as the New York Yankees won 8 to if for their first shut-out of the year. i ——o FORMER .JAPAN RULER IS DEAD — (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE, shot. Hamaguchi was popularly known as “The Lion," liecaus? of his shaggy hair and eyebrows and booming voice. He was the third son of poor parents and his family name was Mizoguchi. Yuko's intelligence as a lad | attracted the wealthy Hamaguchi | family and he was adopted accord- | ing to the Japanese custom by which a family witji daughter," j but no sons adopts a youth who may marry into the family later. Yu.ko was graduated from the Imperial University at Tokio. At 19 he married a daughter of the Hamaguchis and took the family | name. After graduation from the law 1 school with honors in 1895 Hamaguchi obtained a small post in the ministry of finance. His progress | in government service was slow and due to thoroughness rather than brilliance. He became chief of the patent bureau and viceminflster of finance and became minister of home affairs under Premier Wakatsuki in 1926. In 1927 Hamaguchi became leader of the Minseito (Liberal) party. His leadership of the party was successful.
