MUSKEGON FANS ARE LOYAL TO THE REDS

Will Be Satisfied If Bade Myers Lands Club In First Division.

MUSKEGON, Mich., June 28^—Although no definite plans have yet been made, ,it is the purpose of the directors of the Muskegon Central league baseball club to hold appropriate dedicatory ceremonies at Marsh field, the new $25,000 park, of the Reds, upon its completion, which will be in about a fortnight. Taking part in this program will be Emerson W. Dickerson, president of the circuit and sponsor of the Sawdust city, by whose efforts Muskegon became a member of the Central league Charles W, Marsh, head of the local club, and as many of the presidents of the other Central league or-

fend.

ranlzatlons as can bo induced to at-

When completed, it is believed Marsh field will be the equal of any baseball park in Michigan outside of Detroit, and certain it is, from advance indications, that it will hou?e as big crowds as any in the state, with the exception of the east-state metropolis.

Despite the poor start of the Reds send .their equally poor showing to date, the local fans are showing themselves, loyal in every way and ready to support.the club, it being their contention that little better can be expected' of- Babe Myers' outfit when bad weather conditions ar.d almost countless other jinxes have had to be overcome. If the Reds land up in the first division 'this year the Muskegon fans will be more, than pleased.

Advantages In Moran's Favor

NEW YORK, June 28.—Frank Moran .will have practically every physical advantage-over Jack Dillon when they face each other Thursday night at "Washington Park Sporting club. In Weight,. Moran carries some forty pounds more than the Hoosi-er bearcat. To add1 to this, he is 5y2 inches taller and-has a longer reach by 5% inches. In chest, neck, biceps and waist, Moran also Is the larger. This will force Dillon to rely upon his cleverness and forcing tactics.

Steve O'Neil Big Help To the Indians In'Race for Pennant

CLEVELAND, O.. June 28—Steve O'Neil, Indian catcher, has failed to take part in but one or two games this season and has had lots to do with the pace the team has shown this season. Everyone knows that a steady and reliable catcher is one of the most important requisites of a winning eeam, and O'Neil has been all of this and more for the Indians.

Steve comes from a baseball family, but the big part of his success may be attributed to his willingness to work hard all the time. From the time he was a breaker-boy in a Pennsylvania mine Steve t*sas determined to become a first-class big league catcher and he's done so by never giving up.

Steve had two older brothers who •were well known in baseball circles some years ago. John and Mike O'Neil were twins and made up a battery, Mike doing the pitching. They played with the St. Louis Nationals fourteen seasons ago and were very popular for some while, but neither supposed that their little brother Steve would grow up to have them both outclassed.

Connie Mack tried out Steve at one time, but didn't seem to see his possibilities then O'Neil came to Cleveland. He's been here making good since 1912. His value to the team has been shown especially this season, and he has worked every day to keep the team at its best fighting strength, knowing that If he'd ease up or lay down it might mean a disorganization of the whole team.

HIGHLANDERS AGAIN FAIL TO REACH PLATE

Haines Blanks Clan In Ten Inning Duel With "Bed" Ainsworth, 1-0.

SPRINGFIELD, O.. June 28.—Haines held the Highlanders to three hit3 in yesterday's game and the Reapers won out in.the tenth, 1 to 0. Ted Anderson, ex-Highlander, broke up the duel with a single between short and third, with Hoffman on third, the result of a single, sacrifice and an out. "Red" Ainsworth hurled a whale of a game for the visitors, but »s his team couldn't even tome close, he never had a chance for his "white alley." The "Sunbeam" allowed but eight scattered swats.

Haines' was in trouble in but one frame, the second. Holderman opened with a double, but the next three batsmen were pie. Not a single Highlander reached third.

Flings.

SPRINGFIELD, O., June 28.—The Highlanders played a swell game afield, as did the Reapers. The visitors negotiated three double plays.

Gray opened the fracas with a biff, while Holderman got the other two raps off Haines, a single and double.

There were two down when Ted Anderson busted up the affair in the tenth.

La Ross stole the only base. Wagner's throwing arm was in great sha.pe and every Reaper who tried to pilfer was nailed.

Ainsworth fanned four Haines six.

INDIANS SIGN WYCKOFF.

CLEVELAND, O.. June 28.—Secretary McRoy, of the Cleveland American ball club, announced last night that J. Weldon Wyckoff, pitcher of the Philadelphia club, who has bought his release, has accepted terms to join the Cleveland club.

They were discussing the merits of one "Lefty" Gilbert, Highlander chieftain, the other night when up spoke Walter Patrick Frye, well known local baseball celebrity: "I'm not saying what I think of Gilbert as a smart baseball leader, but he's the only one in the world who grows potatoes out at the ball park to draw the 'bugs.' Can you beat it?"

P. S^—It might be well to state that Gilbert and his brother, Syl, have a jototo patch out at the parte and both report prospects for a big crop are excellent.

"What did I tell you," declared Walter Fineran last night after handing the short end of a 50 to 36 count to Frank A. Houff. "I'll do the same in the other two bouts, too."

Jack Dillon, the Hoosier Bearcat, who battles Frank Moran over the 10 round course at Brooklyn Thursday night, is "fit," according to a letter received from him by the Spotlight Ed. "I was never In better shape," writes Jack, "and 1 am confident of winning. Tell the gang to get on this time." A®

"I'm not done yet." said Frank A. Houff last night after losing the first block of his title 3-rn.il match with Walter Fineran. "I will make it hot for him before it's over."

Less we forget, the Highlanders haven't scored In the last 18 innings of play. In Sunday's aftermath, the clan lost, 1 to 0, and again suffered a shutout defeat yesterday after resting Monday. Yesterday's conflict went 10 innings, 1 to O. Enough!

He has made but two kicks Mince he joined the club last month nud during the last two weeks has been hitting in the .300 class.

De Pauw Picks Grid Skipper and Track Boss

INDIANAPOLIS, June 2S.—In the determined effort to get a coaching staff second to none in this part of the country, the De Pauw university athletic board has engaged the services of two men—one for football and basketball and the other for track—who have made fine records and who. it is believed, will put Old Gold athletes again to the forefront in this part of "the countrj-.

Guernsey VanRiper, chairman of the board, yesterday made the announcement that Edbert C. Buss—*-ho has coached the strong Central high school of Detroit elevens for two seasons— has been engaged to coach the De Pauw football eleven in 1916, with the chances more than even that he also will be in charge of the basketball squad.

VanRiper also announced the practical re-appointment of John Nicholson as track coach. "Nick" was coach of the 1915 track team at De Pauw but left at the close of the season to become director of athletics at the University of the South (Sewanee). Those in charge of the athletic situation at the Greencastle school always felt that a mistake was committed when Nicholson was permitted to go. .He is given credit for having developed Ikey Myers, the most famous distance runner brought out in the middle west in years, and a number of other athletes of promise.

HANS WAGNER TO WED.

PITTSBURGH, Pa., June 28.—John Henry Wagner, Pirate shortstop, will soon sign a contract without the ten day clause.

County Detective John Smith today admitted that the great diamond warrior will wed his daughter, Bessie Baine Smith, 24 years old, after the close of the baseball campaign this fall. Miss Smith is an enthusiatic baseball fan, and attends nearly every game played here by the Pirates. "Wagner as an amateur played baseball with his intended bride's father on the back lots of Carnegie and Crafton.
