CLYMER’S HENS START SERIES AT TRIBE LOT Toledo Team Follows Senators on Indian Card—‘Kids’ Day* Today. SUNDAY BILL IS SPLIT Dropping two out of three frames over the week end the Indians today were ready to take on the Toledo Hens, who at present are threatening to slip up on the Tribesmen and take sixth position in the A. A. race. Bill Clymer and Roger Bresnahan are said to he having trouble over the bossing of the Toledo team, but they apparently worked in harmony yesterday for the Hens put the skids under the Colonels in able fashion. At any rate there usually Is plenty of side-show stuff at Washington Park when “Derby Day” and "Raging Roger” come to town and, despite the slump the Indians are suffering, the Toledo series is expected to draw well. Todav was to be "kids' day” again at the Tribe lot and the little fellows , had their voices tuned in order to do their best to pull the Indians through to a victory. The last time the boys were out was last Thursday and it will be remembered that the Hendricksmen showed to good advantage that day by trimming the Millers. Three Tribe pitchers were ready to pitch today. Bartlett. Stryker and Rogge were pronounced fit for action and any of the three was believed in shape to give the Hens stiff opposition if the Tribe support held up. In the week-end games the Indians lost Saturday when they failed to get a hit ©IT Clark of Columbus. He had the honor of pitching a no-hit, no-run game, despite the fact that he was a trifle wild. In two Innings, the first and the eighth, the Indians populated the sacks through bases on balls, but the big hit in the pinch was not forthcoming and the game was stored awav in the Columbus bat sack when the Senators got to Cavet in the fifth, scoring three runs. The last two times Cavet has been on the mound the Indians have failed to hit the size of their caps and of course the veteran has been handicapped. In the Sunday double-header the Indians annexed the first game, 4 to 3, in a brilliant contest, but in the second struggle of the day the Hendricksmen blew up and the Senators walked off •with a sixth-inning affair. 10 to 1. The game was cut short because of the 6 o’clock Sunday closing law on sports. Petty hurled the first game until he weakened in the ninth and had to be relieved by Rogge with two out and run Hers on second and third. Big Clint fdtcbed carefully and got th game-end-ng out ty forcing Pinch Hitter Taggart to send a bounder to Baird. Some of the fans did not want to see Petty removed. but it was necessary, for he had allowed one run and three hits in the inning. Wilson hurled this game for the Senators until the eighth, when he retired for a pinch hitter and Shermamn finished on the mound. In the second struggle Weaver opposed paid at the start, but the Tribe pitcher's support cracked and then he cracked and the game was soon gone to the bow-wows. John Paul Jones pitched the fifth and .lxth innings and got away in good style.
WASHINGTON PARK GOSSIP. Eddie Sicking made a clean steal of home In the sixth inning of the first game Sunday : nd that run proved to be the winner. Eddie came down the base, line as though he had a motor in his legs. Eddie's theft of home in the first game and Khinner's catch of a low liner off the bat of Pechous in the fifth frame j of the second affair were the big features I of the day's pastiming. It's unnecessary to relate the bad spots ! in that second game—the grandstand “wolves" have told it all. Both Saints and Blues got bumped off twice Sunday, so why worry. To err is human.

Young Sewell, catcher, returns to Speaker’s club. Sewell looks well enough at the plate, but he i I as a lot to learn as a catcher Leo Dixon had a bad day behind the windpad for the Indians in the closing I struggle Sunday.

The New York Giants got nine runs i off the Cubs in the first inning yesterday. ; The merry-go-round stuff occurs in the big leagues as well as the in the associa- j tion. The Indians go on the road for a long j jaunt after Thursday. 40-to-l Shot Captures Feature French Race PARIS, June 20.—Roi Beige, a forty-to-ene shot Sunday won the French Grand National steeplechase at four miles one hundred yards.

Cal., June 20—Charles W. Paddock broke the world's record for the ninety and 110 yard dashes and tied the record for 100 yards at tryouts held here Saturday for the national A. A. C. championship meet, according to the official timing He made ninety yards in 8 4-3 seconds, 100 yards in 9 3 5 and ! 110 yards in 10 1-5. i The accepted records for the distances are 9 1-5, 9 3-5 and 10 4-5 seconds, respectively. The tryouts were held for southern California athletes under the personal supervision of Robert S. Weaver, A. A. U. president. Paddock's time for the three distances was caught in the 110 yard dash, tapes being stretched at ninety and K>o yards, as well as at the finish. Paddock also broke records for 130, 150 and 200 yard distances, according to the timers, his times being 12 2-5, 14 15. 19 seconds, respectively.

GEORGES TAKES IT EASY WHILE WOMEN ADMIRE Feminine Fans Gather Outside Orchard for Peep at the Good-Looking Carpentier. WHAT THE KIDS THINK BY PERCY HAMMOND. MANhacSni, L. L, June 20.—0f M. Carpenter it may be said that he is the most beautiful of pugilists. If nice eyes, white skin, and a pleasing visage can win the contention on July 2, Georges will be the victor. “His very frowns ore fairer than tho smiles of Dempsey are.” Seated on the wide veranda of his cummer place, faultlessly dressed in a handsome form fitting forenoon suit, he Is as grateful a destination to the eye as a musical comedy barytone. As he swung his shapely leg from a table the other day, gazing wistiully at the rose In his band, one rather expected him to burst into a ballad, full of plaintive words and ihylodies. WOMEN CAN’T HELP ADMIRING. •Being the fairest of the prize fighters, M. Carpentier, of course, is of excessive Interest to the women of an esthetic turn of mind. Dozens of them gather out-ide the orchard which surrounds his proving grounds for to see and to admire. Sunday, as an Instance, M. Carpentler’s gallery Included Miss Ne.vsu McMein, the portrait urtist; Miss Hope Hampton, the movie artist; Mias Evelyn Gosnell, the dramatic artist; Mias Harriet Underhill, the literary artist, and other eminent women exponents of beauty and thoJght. There were some men artists present, too, among them Edgar Selwyn, the dramatist, player, and impresario; Ed Wynn, the humorist and comedian; Oscar Shaw the singer, actor, and dancer, and scores of prominent scribblers, making copious memoranda. Here, briefly, is a record of one of M. Carpentier's semi weekly receiving days. Just before 3 In the afternoon we assemble, a hundred of us, in front of the farmhouse, all of us very Quiet uiwl a little awed. We know that we are not welcome, that we are permitted to be there onlv through the reluctant and traditional courtesy of the French We tiptoe about, deferential, hats in hand, rut her expecting to have the dog set upon us and feeling, really, that we deserve no more. , . . Kventnallv, if we hnve good fortune, we espy Mr. Curley, or other friendly persons from the hosp.! *oie Middle West, and we signal to him our despair. HE PROVES FRIEND IN NEED We then fawn upon Mr. ( urley. recalling sycophant'.cally the old days in Chi. when he was an entrepreneur of athletes; and our endeavors are not without avail, for a whispered word or two from him to the grim guardian of the gate admits us to the lane which borders M. Carpentler's lawn. M Carpentier, like the characters in an English novel, is having tea on the terrace, and we observe and store in our memories, each sip and each gesture of mastication. M. Deschamps, bis manager, who resembles something Ming or Muuohu, so Chinese is he of physiognomy, watches also M. Carpentier s process of inglutition, and _as his ward reaches for another biscuit he stops him. M. Deschamps wears white "squeakers,” and on the restless shoulders are the almost obsolete galluses of the mim r bourgeoise. There is somethiug almost holy in M. Deschamps' motherly attitude toward his charge. You instinctively recall the pious nursery Hues and paraphrase to yourself: Who ran to help him \\ hen he fell And kissed the place to Make it well? and you can picture M. Deschamps in Jersey City, ministering maternally to Georges, after the unpretty Dempsey has misbehaved himself and has been guilty of the rough conduct which is his habit. GEORGES FINALLY M AKES APPEARANCE. Finally Georges appears on the porch in a bath robe and starts with Des champs through the barnyard for the nearby meadow upon whose hillside the preparatory arena is pitched. Wo trail after him. Discarding his stately kimono, he enters a stable, and there, as we crowd, breathless, around the door, he punches a bag. He punches a bag wth graceful ennui, and then performs a perfunctory exercise upon such other gymnastic paraphernalia as are at hand. lie smiles the weary smile of one whose own importance wearies him. Perched on the cross burs of a telegraph pole across the mad are three young Long Island Americans. ' Don't stall, you lousy frog;” one of them yells. "The only thing you can hit Is a bag!” Sarles , in ‘Deusy,’ Takes Uniontown Universal Trophy
UNIONTOWN, Pa., June 20.—Roscoe Sarles, driving a Duesonberg, won the sixth annual Universal Trophy race, here Saturday, 225 miles, in 2:18:20, at an average speed of 97.75 miles an hour.: Eddie Hearne, in a Revere Special, was I second in 2:18:57. aid Eddie Miller, third] in 2:20:52.

Landis Meeting Canceled CLEVELAND, June 20—The meeting of the owners of National and American League baseball clubs, scheduled to tie held in Pittsburgh today, to discuss rules, has been canceled. Judge K. M. Landis, baseball commissioner, announced here last night before leaving for Pittsburgh. “All of the owners seem to be too busy just now with their ball clubs to pay any attention to rules or anything else pertaining to the game,” Judge Laudls said. “I am going to Pittsburgh just to see another ball game and have another day off.”

GYMNASTIC WORK AIDS GEORGES
Bv JAMES J. CORBETT. Former World's Heavy weight ChampWSn. MANHASSET, L. 1., Jude 20.—Georges Carpentier’s ideas of training are practically the same as those of American fighters with the one noticeable exception he prefers to work in private. There is one thing more—he does a greater amount of gymnastic work. “When Descamps first began to, teach me.” said Georges in conversation with me the other day, “be started with much acrobatics. Before I was taught to box I learned to—what you call —‘tumble.’ When I was but a boy I could walk anywhere on my hands. Acrobatics, as much as anything else, aided in my physical development and I believe they are just ns essential to mo today.” Carpentier’s wonderfully developed arms, shoulders and legs prove tho truth of his assertion. Had It not been for the sort of training he has had he would not have them today and he uses acrobatic stunts scientifically in training for

Kearns Backs Up on Title Referee Rumpus ATLANTIC CITY, June 20—The rumpus over the selection of a referee for the Carpentier-Dempsey contest seems to have blown up. Jack Kearns said today that he had no particular objection to the anoointment of Harry Ertle, but he did think the principals should be consulted about it. “I think that the New Jersey state boxing commission should submit a list of names for us to choose frbrn. The original contract makes that provision nnd I believe that in all fairness we should have some say in the matter.” j The impression here is that the Jersey officials will please themselves in the matter and that Harry Ertle will be the third man in the ring whether Kearns likes it or not. The report that there w-ill be no fight unless Kearns’ protest is considered, is regarded as a flag to the stands. CHICAGO BOYS WIN. NEW YORK.

every fight. Aside from this his training routine is almost identical with that or Champion Dempsey. For instance he works out with little fellows as well as the big ones. The sparring mates of the rivals, like Journee and Jeanette out here, and Burke, Williams, Renault and Ghee in Dempsey’s camp, help Jack and Georges as smaller men could not do in roughing it. They also aid in keeping the chain pion and bis challenger from losing the range of their punches. They can give and take, which is absolutely necessary. But the little fellows play their part. Italian Joe Gans and Marcel Denys step around might briskly. With the big fight getting close now, Carpentier plans to put in his best licks since coming to Mauhasset. His private workouts will be full of ginger and he is showing more for the members of the press, too. (Copyright, 1981, by Inter national News Service.)

Jack Doesn’t Care to Be Told How Good He Is With the Old Punch
BY HENRY FARRELL. United Press Sports Editor. NEW YORK June 20. —Jack Dempsey has many admirable traits. His modesty, coupled with generous regard to other ring men, is one of his most noticeable virtues. He does not boast and he does not like to be told how good he is. In this he lacks the chief characteristic of a boxing champion. Visitors at the Dempsey camp think the best way to make a hit with the champion is to tell him how good he is and what a joke the Frenchman Is. One evening recently the champion dropped into a hotel on the board walk. One of the crowd that immediately surrounded him had just come from Manhasset. "Jack,” this one said, “I’ll mortgage my house and home on you. This Frenchman hasn’t a thing. He’s training in secret because he can't let the public know how rotten he is. He won’t last a round. He will—” "Wait a minute,” the champion Interrupted. ‘‘You may be right, but X can't see It that way. Records count, you know. In sports and Carpentier has a record back of him.” Philadelphia Jack Stages Comeback Against Dempsey Proves, in Sparring Match, He Still Can Go at High Speed. ATLANTIC CITY, June 20.—Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, now an ancient man of the ring, has proved today that he is still able to travel at high speed. O Brien crawled through the ropes with Jack Dempsey at Airport, Sunday, and carried the champion along one round faster than any of Jack’s younger sparring partners. Shewing all the fancy footwork that he once displayed as a top notch middle and light heavyweight, O'B.'ien sailed Into Dempsey and gave him everything he bad for three busy minutes. At the finish, winded and flushed, O'Brien Was applauded by the crowd, which called for another round. "Not today, ladies and gentlemen,” he announced. "He’s too strong and t( ugh for me.” Later, however, he returned to the ring and engaged Dempsey in a brief pushing contest. O'Brien is 42 years old and an athlete who has never permitted himself to get out of condition. Dempsey is now entering the last stage of training. He has ten days left to box himself Into form and his handlers are beginning to bring on speedier sparring partners. He will work hard this week and by the middle of next week expects to be "down to near the weight be will make for Carpentier. He will take off several more pounds. In accordance with Dempsey’s program, Eddie O’Hara, a fast middleweight from New York, and Jack O’Brien, have been added to the list of sparring Eartners. O'Hara is a pupil of Willie ewls, who taught Carpentier many ring tricks. His style, therefore, resembles that of the Frenchman to a marked degree. He tried Carpentier* favorite punches on Dempsey Saturday and again yesterday. COLLEGE BASEBALL. Princeton, 4 ; Yale. 2. Harvard. 11: Tufts. 9.
