TJiat's UTora Than They Counted On 17 Blows Monday—Oh Yes, They Copped, 6-3,

By Ralph H. White.

Th© old diamond pastime is a fanny proposition after all. In the second *Nria contest. Monday, the Browns could score only five runs on 17 hits, •While in yesterday's game, the third of the Get, they tallied six times on •even bingles. And the beauty part of it all was that victory perched on the

Terre Haute banner, 6 to 3.

All of which makes It two games out

£t

three with the Three-I leaders. in't that the candy? Pitching- superb ball, Grimm baffled the visitors for eight Innings, and It was all over when Uyme, performing in the role of rescue artist, set the foe down In one, two, three order In the ninth. Opposing our boys was One Lukenovic. a 19-year-old lad, who has been showing Manager Jimmy Hamilton something. Wildness Jlmmed bis chances right off the reel, and timely clouting put on the finishing touches. Five of the Brownies, Loney, O'Berta, Farrell, Schulte and Griinrn, belted the a prate for .333, or better, averages, while Modecai Brown, pinch hitting In the eighth, slammed out a Single which drove in a run and gave the boss a perfect day with the willow.

In six of the nine innings the topaotchers went down in order, and in one of the other three they failed to break the Ice, showing the brand of twirling served up and the style of fielding afforded Grimm and Leyme.

Just how the doed was done can be Ascertained by reading the notes of the game, to be found elsewhere on this page.

Still in the rut, but showing the .. froper speed. -r1

Both cluba scored in the firet, Pe•Ha vettJniC one and the Browns, two. In the first half, Lebonrveau singled mad moved along on Humtlton's ancrlfee.

Only three batsmen faced Grimm in the first half of the third. L,ukenovic, though, didn't escape so easily, passing O'Berta with one gone, but that was all, so he should worry.

Tommy Scanlon, local umpire, departed for Chicago in the wee small hours this morning, where today he will sign to handle the indicator in the Throe-I league. A1 Tearney when in Terre Haute Monday talked with M-ord Brown as to Scanlon's ability and yesterday wired Tommy to come oi* and talk business.

The local boy has had league and college experience and should be an Improvement over some of the umps In the Three-I loop.

PHILADELPHIA. J\Uy 9.— Charles the Browns did no "stalling" as auC. Cravath, the hard-hitting outfielder, Ithentic. better known to baseball fans as As a matter of fact, the Bloomers "Gavvy," was Tuesday appointed man- started the slowing up tactics and Joe ager of the Philadelphia National Dunn became peeved when handed

to the effect that

dose of the same medicine. But the Browns did not "stall," so there you are.

The three Three-I league games of the Fourth drew almost 8,000 fans, according to announcement by President Jack Cleary of the Terre Haute Bans' association today. The receipts were split between the six clubs. The Bloomlngton-Peoria contest drew the banner crowd, some 5,000 fans kicking in to get in.

Erase one of the defeats chalked up against the Browns. During the last road trip. Mord Brown protested a game lost to Bloomington and today official word was received that the protest had been upheld and the game ordered eliminated from the records of the Three-I circuit. When the Browns visit that burg again the game will be replayed as a postponed affair. Brown' protest was based on a ruling by the umps who refused to allow a runner on first to advance beyond second on a couple of wierd pegs by the opposition. Crazy rullner, don't you think? But then you can expect anything from some of the guys now holding indicators in. our little compact organization.

After today's game with Peoria, the Moline club will come for four games. Bloomington and Rockford follow after which our boys will hit the trail until Aug. 10, when they return for the final home stand of the year. So get out there, fans, and help pull the team out of last pl^ce. It can De done. It must be done.

LAFAYETTE, Ind., July 9.—Robert Resener again demonstrated that consistent shooting in golf will carry away the honors, when he won the low medal prize in the 36-hole qualifying round in the state championship here Tuesday. He shot a 43 out and a 40 in for an S3, which with his 79 on the first IS gave him the low score of 162 and first place in the title fight.

John Simpson, of the Indlanapolio Country club, formerly of Terre Haute, shot into second place and leads the lower bracket. He turned the first nine In 41 and came home with a 38 for 79. His was the low score of the day for the IS holes, although several others shot close to the eighties.

Fight Receipts Less Than a Half Million

TOLEDO, July 9.—Gate receipts of the heavyweight championship contest between Jack Dempsey and Jess Wiilard here July 4 were unofficially announced last night at approximately $452 ,000. The attendance, Promoter Tex Rickard said, was between 20.U00 and 21.000.

These approximate figures were authorized by Rickard because of the delay in arriving at the official attendance and receipts. Revenue agents are checking up the flgureB to determine the amount, of war tax due the government and they probably will not finish the task until late today. Promoter Rickard left for New York last night without knowing exactly how much money the contest drew.
