Wtli/ur Good, center fielder, is the new manager of the team from the banks of the Kaw. this veteran having been appointed to succeed Otto Knabe Tuesday night. Knabe left the team on his arrival here late Tuesday and departed for Kansas City to talk his sudden release over with Owner Muehlbach. Good has been with the K. C. club for several seasons and is rated one of the best hitters and fielders in the league. He Is said to be popular with his mates and he is exported to bring the Blues out of tho rut they have been in for some time. Good is going to Anil some tough sledding tor a few days, however, for his athletes are slated to perform against the Indians here for four days, starting today. If he can encourage his outfit i • cueck the Tribesmen he will be doing something, for the Hendrleksmen right now are going at a merry clip, having won nine out of the last eleven games. In addition to seeing the rookie, Clyde Seib. turn the Brewers bark, 1 to 0. In a brilliantly pitched contest yesterday, the tans also were given cheer by an announcement from Owner W. C. Smith. Said announcement Informed the fans toat Pitcher Pat Shea was coming from the New York Giants to assist the Indians. Shea was with St. Paul for a tuae last season, being recalled by John McGraw in time to be eligible for the world's series. Shea is coming here on n loan, but tho fans care not how he comes, Just so he twirls baseball effectively and wears a Tribe uniform while so occupied.

Seib was assigned the twirling job yesterday In the series wind-up with the Brewers and th-> visitors were able to collect but two hits off his delivery. He pitched In a manner of a veteran and In fife or the nine innings not a Brewer reached first base. In fact only five Brewers got on base, two by safe hits, one by a base on balls and two hv errors. Onnoslng Seib was "Peewee" Gearin, Milwaukee southpaw, and it must be said for the little fellow that he also was pitching bail. The only run of the game came in the fourth inning on Picking's hit, Covington's sacrifice and Brown's long single. The Indians got eight safeties off G-ear-in, but he was able to get out of trouble with the exception of the fourth stanza. BeiD not only pit cued m oig league style, but he made himself a few points with the bat. getting two singles and a sacrifice. Needless to state, the major league scours will be present the next time Clyde goes to the mound. Owner Smith and Manager Hendricks were highly elated over the yourgster's perft rmanee yesterday and they feel he Is destined to become a star. Center Fielder Mathews of the Brewers pulled in a cou;>le of drives that were labeled hits, one off Morrison and one off Baird. Each pitcher Issued one pass and each fanned two uien.

The otlie* day the wires carried the news item that Jim Thorpe had been released by the Portland club of the Pacific Coast League to make room for younger blood. It was in 1912 at Stockholm that Jim Thorpe In the Olympic games won the decathlon championship, the hardest test in all-round ability that track and field j sports offer. Later Thorpe was stripped of all the honors won at Stockholm ns an amateur, when it was discovered that he | had accepted a very small salary for playing professional ball in a tank-town ' circuit in the South. ! Thorpe was unquestionably one of the ; ; greatest athletes in the history of sport iHe could do everything well.

States to the other. No other player w ho ever came to the majors was pre**agented quite so widely as Thorpe. Thorpe was a graceful player. He developed Into a tine fielder and had an excellent arm. He was fast on the bases. Jim's one glaring weakness ns a ball plaver was at the bat. He could “murder” a fast ball. When he hit one In his groove, and got those muscular shoulders of Ills behind the drive, the pul certainly would travel. At one time he achieved considerable reputation as a home-run hitter. . . The old curve ball was the troublesome one for Jim. He Just couldn t resist slicing away at tlie curve.

WILLS PUTS IT UP TO CHAMP Negro Fighter Forces Dempsey’s Hand for Chance at Heavy Title. ■ DEMPSEY-BRENNAN LABOR DAY. LOS ANGELES, Jane 14.—-lack Kearns has reached a final agreement for a Jack Dempsey-Itill Brennan fight for tlie world’s championship at Michigan City, Ind., day. He said Promoter Floyd Fitzsimmons lias offered Dempsey a flat guarantee of $200,000 for a ten-round, no-deci-sion boat. Kearns returned from Oakland Tuesday after canceling Dempsey’s California vaudeville tour. BY’ HENRY FARRELL. United Press, Sports Editor. NEW YORK, June 14.—Jack Dempsey has two ways out of the bole that Harry Wills has put him in—if he want out. He can put his price so high that no promoter can reach it or he can fill his card full of set-ups and say that he is too busy. While the boxing solons of New Y’ork have not stated/otheially that they will approve a bout between Dempsey and It ills for the heavyweight title they have taken action that represents the same thing. The commission has accepted the challenge of Wilis accompanied by a certified check for $2,500 and to be consistent wirh recent actions the commission must serve notice on Dempsey that he has not a lot of time in which to consider the challenge of his dusky rival. Dempsey already has staggered prospective promoters with a tip that he wants $500,000 for liis next big performance. If Wills would be willing to accept about SSO for his share, the fight might be possible. From present indications, Dempsey is getting ready to fill his calendar with some startling dates including another knockout of Bill Brennan, who will take one of Dempsey's pokes In the raidsection every day in the week for good pay.
