Jeakle of Toledo, Ohio, won a Wean-cut victory over Bud Perrill of Terre Haute, Ind.. In a ten-round bout that went to a finish at the Ft. Harrison arena Thursday night. Showing wonderful ring generalship and carrying a strong Jab in either mitt, Jeakle, leading all the way after the first round, was never in danger. The Toledo boy was fighting at long range and was scoring when PerrlU pulled him In, and, backing him to the ropes with infighting, crossed and shot a strong rgiht to the solar plexis. The blow hurt and Jeakle went to his knees. The bell saved Jeakle any trouble after he regained his feet and the rest between rounds was all he needed. Starting the second round like a whirlwind, Jeakle slammed and banged, jabbed and covered anything Perrill tried. In the semi windup Mickey O'Dowd caused Ray Welsh's seconds to throw the sponge in after he had gone down for the count of nine twice In the first round. ODowd is from Muncie and Welsh a local boy. The first preliminary saw Billy Haleys' hand raised after four founds of fighting with Sailor Schubert, both of Indianapolis. Sammy Lee of Indianapolis, about five and a half feet tall, mixed with Stanley Arthur, also of local production, a long drawn out boy, in the second prelim. After taking a beating in the first round at long range Lee came in close and hung on, after wearing the long boy down he took an opening and slipped over the sleep wallop.

BASEBALL COMMENT, GOSSIP Tribe Nears Close of Schedule On Home Lot—Twiu Bill TVith Hens Goes As Double Defeat „ —Other Notes. By EDDIE ASH The Indians Saturday are to open their next to the last home series before closing the 1922 games at Washington park. Four games are to be played with the Columbus Senators, two on Saturday and two on Sunday. The Tribe then will go to Louisville for a round of contests, return home with the Colonels for a series, and that will end Washington park hostilities this season. Today's game with the Ssenators
was postpones because of wet grounds. Followers of the Tribesmen Sre i.eartsick over the reversal of form which knocked their favorites down the percentage column. Everything in the way of dope has been upset. It is an axiom of baseball that a team out In front during early July usually cops the pennant, but not so with the Indians. They were leading well into July, then the crash came and down, acwn they went. Either the class of ball in th 6 American Association speeded up tremendßusly the second half of the race, or the Indians played far over thsir heads the first part. Whatever the cause, the team certainly took a d ! ve and failed to come up. Hits don't ring off Tribe bats any more. Just for old times cheer the fan* would like to see the boys step out and crash a few before the curtain falls. Two defeats Thursday. The Hens copped both ends of the twin bill, 3 to 2 and 3 to 0. Hugh Bedlent opposed Harry Weaver the first game and Jess Petty went in against Doc Ayres in the second. Weaver was stingy with hits, but somewhat wild and walks in the ninth paved the way for his downfall. Even with his wildness in the closing inning he would have escaped had not Doug Baird erred with a Hen runner on third. The mtsplay permitted Terry to score the winning marker after two out. Murphy got a feature home run in the third inning when he hit to the flag pole for the circuit. In the second game Thursday Doc Ayres refused to allow the Indians to threaten. They did not get a man to second. Six hits were their lot and the few singles were far apart. The Tribe Bent the ball for pop flies and hoists to the outfield most of the game. The Hens scored one run In the fourth and two in the sixth. Ralph Shinners, former Indian, got a walk, double and two singles. Jess Petty did not pitch bad ball, but his efforts were wasted because of the failure of his mates to solve Ayres' offerings. The Hens had only four assists in this contest, which is ample proof that Ayres wa3 feeding them the sky ball. Pinelli, Cincy third sacker, Thursday accepted ten chances at third and got three hits. The Giants won the game, however. Cy Williams, Indiana grown and Notre Dame trained, got a mighty home run in Pittsburgh Thursday. Playing with the Phils, Cy lifted the ball over the right field wall and won himself SIOO. The Pirates won the game. The lowly Braves scored nine times in the last three innings and trimmed twenty Cardinal players. It still take* Alex to win for the Cubs. He beat the Dodgers Thursday, allowing only four hits. The Yankees emerged from their batting slump, but Babe Rifth went hitless for the third successive day. Speaker of Cleveland was hurt in a collision with Wood. The Red Sox were easy for the Brownies again and the Fohlmen held to their league lead. Sisler got four hits. Ring up another shutout victory for Walter Johnson. He blanked the White Sox Thursday. Tillie Walker hit home run No. 31 and Harry Heilman got one in the same with the bases populated. The Tigers made It three out of four In the series. The Brewers hit hard Thursday, but the Saints hit harder, getting six runs in the last two Innings.

BRUMMIE' YANKEE TOWN IN FIGHTFOR FLAB Cleveland Aids St. Louis by Defeating New York Two Out of Three. By WESTBROOK PEOLKK, United Newt Staff Oarretpondeni NEW YORK, Aug. 25.—Tris Speaker and his game leg and his organized annoyance operating under the name of the Cleveland Indians have been shooed out of town at last and tho Browns are coming for a series which might turn out to be the break of the American League season. Last year and the year before, the Indians made themselves obnoxious to the New York Yankees later in August, but It didn’t seem likely that they would come along in the final stretch of this year’s schedule to dump the Yankees down out of first place gain. They did, however, by winning two games out of the final three in New York this week. It may prove that this year’s pennant aJso depended on those three New York engagements with the men from Cleveland. There Isn't much left of the season—thirty-four games to go. The Yanks have fallen away somewhat from the sublime form in which they recently raced through twenty-three games with only six defeats. That wan too good to last. After this week's cluster of four games with the Browns, the Yanks meet them once again, but in St. Louis, not New York. This farewell fight will continue three days, beginning Sept. 16. Meetings of this sort are very "hard - ’ on the magnate*. The Yanks mourn the fact that the St_ Ikiuls series comes along at the end of the week, which will find thousands of people with nothing else to do but go to the l-all games In capacity crowds.
FANS BEHIND GLICK South Side Interested 1n Sidney’s Match of Monday. South Side boxing fans are keenly interested in the boxing show at Tomlinson Hall Monday night. Sidney Glick, pride of that section, is out to do a come-back against Jackie Barnhart of Terre Haute, in one of the three ten-round bouts on the program. Glick met up with a set back at the band of Ixiule Lavell some time ago, but his followers didn't desert him and he is out to check Barnhart oft the list. Sidney is a youngster and has not been out of the amateur ranks very long, and his defeat by Lavell was not considered wholly discouraging. In tho other bouts Monday Ray River? of California, will meet Billy Douglass of New York, and Jimmy Dalton of Indianapolis, will clash with Happy McHenry of Montpelier. HOOSIERS QUALIFY Three Indiana Golfers Compete in Finals of Western Meet. Three Indiana golfers qualified In the western open tourney to com pete in the finals starting today. Jack Blakcsb* of Muncie led the Hoosiers with a total of 155 for the thirty-six holes. Gunnar Nelson of Lafayette had a 163 total and C. IV. Jones of Logansport qualified with IC7.

MARATHON golfing is the latest thing In the West. Recently Arthur Velgult played 16 times around the Spokane golf course in a week. It is estimated he walked thirtyfive miles In performing the feat. Ji "and Velgult is strong for the long dlstance stuff, but his caddy, who ijjCff. spent the day In |b be( and afterward, mw& .A J growlng' a* a is well represent- ANDERSON ed in baseball, has many classy tennis exponents, boast* I cf sveral good golfers, is recognized j as a leading baketball State and is strong in football. College football in Indiana has not been on a par with other uchools in reoent years, however. The general return of football to ! the high schools of the State will i raise tne standard of college football. I And Indianapolis is in the center of It all. THE latest from Jack Dempsey is "The Road to Perfect Health,” ! or "How a Champion Keeps Fit,” you know the stuif. It's pretty hard to keep tab on Jack any more. We forget now whether he is in Los Angeles or has just sailed for some foreign clime he hasn’t lamped. But on Labor Day he will show his stuff in Michigan City. It will be about as Interesting as shooting pool with a rubber Wall. U. S. YACHT BEATEN Canadian Club Entry .Scores Fourth Victory. By Timet Special TORONTO. Ont..

BRADY HOLDS LEAD 111 WESTERN OPEN GILF TOURNAMENT Jock Hutcheson, Former British Open Champ, Finishes Next to Mike. By United Ifetot BIRMINGHAM. Mlcll, Aug. 25. Mike Brady, home club professional, led the field of sixty-four qualifiers, when the second half of the qualifying round had been shot in the Western open tournament Thursday. Brady, who had a 72 In the first round, came through with a superior brand of golf Thursday and made the round in 69, which Is three better than fours. As the course is dry, because of lack of rain, Brady’s performance was exceptional and far and away above anything else shown here so far. Jock Hutchison, former British open champion, playing with Brady, came around in 71 and finished well up with 145. Johny Farrell, the youthful Mamaroneck (N. Y.) pro., finished with 148, and on his performance should be a strong contender for the honors Walter Hagen has addlcated by not defending his Western title. Davey Robertson of Detroit also qualified with 14S. Chick Evans, leading amateur in the tournament, eased in with 154 without seeming to extend himself. Emmett French, Youngstown runner-up in the professional championship, finished with 150 and George Sargent, Columbus, was on his heels with 15L TENNIS UPSETS FEATURE Williams and Washburn Are Beaten In Fourth Round.

H., defending champions, while Boortra and Niles will oppose Gerald L. Patterson and Pat O’Hara Wood, Australian Davis cup players.
