Third Successive Defeat Cuts League Lead of Indians to Feu) Points

TRIBE BARELY CLINGS ON TOP IN CLOSE RACE Tuesday Loss to Blues Enables Saints to Creep Up In Standing. BATTING SLUMP COSTLY Hooslers Get on Bases, but They Are Not Driving In Runs. Leaders' "IT* Today Pet. Win. Lose. Indianapolis St. Paul .600 .605 .593 Milwaukee .......... .558 .563 J>s2 By Timet Special KANSAS CITY, Mu. July 19Jack Hendricks and his Indians were a nervous lot today as they saw their lead slipping In the hot American Association race. The 2-to-0 defeat handed the Hooslers here by the K. C. Blues Tuesday while the Saints were downing the Senators in St. Pa%J shook up the Tribe percentage in severe fashion. A defeat here today and a Saint victory in St. Paul will mean the HooSiers will be replaced in the flag position by the men of Mike Kelley. Not Hitting With Men On. The pennant sprint is beginning to tell on the Tribesmen, Manager Hendricks indicated today when he discussed the slump the team apparently has struck. The loss Tuesday was the third in a row for the Indians, the team having lost the last two games of the Louisville series before leaving home. The slump is in the batting, when timely hits are needed, Hendricks said. The Tribe has been getting men on the sacks, but has not been driving in runs. The pitching has been holding up, but the hurlers are not getting the proper hitting support. In the series opener here Tuesday Pug Cavet twirled fair eough ball, but his mates could not get any runs. Result, K. C. won, 2 to 0. Tribe Shaky in Feild Cavet's fielding support also was rather shaky, three errors occuring behind him. Gus Bono twirled for the locals and he kept the eight hits of the Indians well scattered. The Blues not ten safeties off Cavet and scored one run in the fifth Inning and one in the seventh. Purcell led the Tribe’s weak attack by getting three of the eight hits. Ten Indians were left stranded on the paths. In the second skirmish of the series today it was believed Sieb would be used by the Indians and Caldwell by the Blues.

NAVAL ACADEMY HIGH IN FIELD OF COLLEGE SPORTS

By HENRY FARRELL. United Press Sportt Editor. NEW YORK, July 19.—1n looking for the champion athletic school of the college year just closed, one need only take a little bota and ride up the Severn River to Annapolis. In 114 contests in fourteen various sports the United States Naval Academy won ninety-eight of them. In water polo, wrestling, boxing, gymnastic, fencing, lacrosse, rifle shooting, track and field, rowing, the midshipmen finished with a clean slate. The football team beat the Army and won six out of seven games The basket-ball team won nineteen out of twenty-two games. The baseball team beat the Army and won thirteen out of eighteen games. The swimming team In six meets lost only to Yale, the intercollegiate champion, and the tennis team broke even in ten matches. In rowing, wrestling, gymnastics, fencing and water polo, the future admirals had a clear title to the championship. Shining with unparalleled brilliance, however, was the performance of the great Navy crew, which won the intercollegiate rowing championship for the second time and made anew world’s record for the three mites. Over a four year’s stretch of time the great eight lost only two races in twenty-four events. The Navy

In qualifying for the Olympic, the crew virtually won the national championship and then it topped its glory by winning two Intercollegiate championships. If it was not the greatest crew over produced, some fast flgurirg will be required to name Its superior. Those who are accusing tho New York Yankees and the St. Louis Browns of using a trick ball, cannot have doubts about the sphere the Cleveland Indians are using. In the first third of the 1922 race the In- j dians hit only five homers. Georgetown University won twentyfour games without a single loss in the 1922 baseball season and won the Eastern championship beyond all doubt. Holy Cross, with five defeats in thirty starts, was generally picked for second place. Georgetown defeated Holy Cross twice, Fordham twice, Georgia Tech twice and Dartmouth.

BANTAM LYNCH WANTS TRY AT FEATHER CROWN i r Joe, In Envious Mood, Would Meet Johnny Kilbane for Title. By United Press NEW YORK. July 19.---Double-bar-relled champions being somewhat of a vogue, Joe Lynch would like to step out now and get himself two titles. The new bantamweight champion ie looking with fond eyes at the crown of Johnny Kilbane, which has been regarded as in a mood to slip off for several years. “Kilbane says he wants to defend his featherweight title at 122 pounds, the same weight at which he won it. Well, Joe will take him on any time he wants to go,” Eddie Mead, the manager of the bantam king, said today. The two-way champions haven't been so successful in their aspirations of late. Johnny Buff, who owned the American flyweight and the world’s bantamweight titles at the same time, became a single-track operator when Lynch amputated Ws bantam crown. Benny Leonard, lightweight champion, tried to add the welterweight honors to his pedigree and when he saw himself losing to Jack Britton, he crawled away on a foul.

WHAT’S DUE NOW? SPORT MUST HAVE ITS UPSET Bu EDDIE ASH What will be the next upset in the sport world? Plenty of opportunities are at hand for something new to occur to keep the dope pot tilted, Gene Sarazen, New York Italian-American kid, has Just finished astonishing the experts by annexing the Yankee golf title; Walter Hoover of Dulufh, made all England feel bally sick by taking the sculling championship; Joe Lynch did a come-back and was recrowned bantamweight champion. So what’s due now? • Perhaps Lew Tendler will produce the next sensation when he tackles Lightweight Champion Benny Leonard July 27. Leonard is ruling an easy favorite, but it has been hard sledding for favorites in qportdom recently. Tendler is rough and experienced, but Leonard is such a marvel few dopesters care to back the challenger at even money. No one would be surprised if the Browns continue to lead the Yankees, In the American League, but wouldn’t It be a terrific Jolt if the White Sox won? . If the Cardinals top the Giants in the National the experts will have to hide, for nearly all of the big city baseball sharks picked the Giants as big favorites to repeat. Now it looks as though the McGraw clan will be lucky to win. Frequent upsets provide the thrills that keep sports popular. • • • It must make thousands of veteran golfers want to throw away their clubs to see a mere boy come along and win the national title. • • • Gene Sarazen ’a feat Is further proof that the poor boy with the right stuff in him can’t be kept down. * • • Golf is the rich man’s game no longer. Sporty knickers, costly, polished clubs and dashing hats don’t make for champions. • • • If eating spaghetti helps get the elusive pellet In the hole, there’g going to be a lot of new sword swallowers In this country. • • • Maybe Sarazen knows some sort of a freak delivery with his clubs. Perhaps he puts the banana split to his drives. • • • Christopher Columbus is now eligible to receive a belated invitation for posthumous honorary membership in a country club.
