—. .— J— —-— —— Gleason and Evans Discuss Kamm and Agree He’s Worth All Sox Paid

WESTERN WIZARD MAKES GOOD ON MAJOR DIAMONDS

improves in All Departments of Play and Chicago Is Satisfied, By BILLY EVANS. NEW YORK, Aug. 10.—Did Chicago get a run for its money when it spent,sloo,ooo for Third Baseman Bill Kamm? If you should put that question to Kid Gleason, manager of the White Sox, he would soon settle it and in a most decided manner. Prior to the opening of the season Kamm, bought from San Francisco, was the most talked of man in baseball, not excepting Babe Ruth or any of the other celebrities.' Flurry Wears Off With the season well on its way Kamm no longer occupies the headlines. The flurry occasioned by the fact that Chicago paid a fabulous sum for an untried recruit has worn off. What about Kamm? I put that question to Manager Gleason recently. We were discussing players of the past and present. “He’s a wonder,” the Kid popped off. “the greatest third baseman since the days of Jimmy Collins. "Kamm works with such ease and grace that a great many of the fans fail to appreciate his remarkable ability. Like Jimmy Collins and Larry Lajoie he makes the hardest kind of chances look easy. Glides Over Field “Great third basemen must have Intuition, they must sense the play that is about to be pulled. Likewise they must learn the mannerisms of every batter. “Kamm seems to, glide over the field instead of run. He is a marvel Tith his gloved hand, can throw from any position and has a strong and accurate arm. “Kamm is a wonder right now in the field and yet he is improving every day. “Bill has the ideal disposition for a great ball player. Nothing worries him. If he has a bad day he will probably come back the next day with a spectacular exhibition. "Some of the baseball experts say that Kamm has failed to hit major league pitching as well as expected. He is around the .300 mark and that’s plenty good enough for me. And he's groing to be a much better hitter in a couple of years. “Kamm is worth every cent the Chicago club paid for him." I seconded what Gleason had to eay of Bill Kamm. He already ranks with Collins. Bradley and Devlin. MORAN GETS DRAW IN TILT Junior Lightweight Boxers Fight Hard, But Neither Wins.

Rivals Again Slated to Match Swim Skill

“I’ll get you yet!” said Miss Euphrasia Donnelly, and she meant it. “Go to it!” replied Miss Minnie De Vry, and she shrugged her shoulders in a manner that suggested that she meant it, too. Then the two girl swimmers smiled at each ofher and went their respective ways. Miss Donnelly is connected with the Hoosier Athletic Club and is the greatest girl hope of the local sank, who believe she will wan some honors for Indianapolis in the national amateur championship swimming meet to be held Aug. 23, 24 and 25 at Broad Ripple pool under the auspices of the Chamber of Commerce. In Chicago Last Year Miss Devry Is a swimmer for the Illinoite Athletic CJlub. The occasion on which the challenge was uttered and accepted was the conclusion of a meet in Chicago the latter part of last year. This sporting feud between these two daughters of Neptune began when Miss Donnelly won the 220-yard free style national junior championship from Miss De Vry in Indianapolis last July. Miss De Vry threatened vengeance, but Miss Donnelly only smiled. De Vry Won It Rack Several months later, -the two girls again met, in Chicago in the same event. This time. Miss De Vry, after several months of training during which a revengeful gleam never left her eye, w-on back the 220-yard junior title and has held to it since. According to Bill Mernam. coach, who has been putting Miss Donnelly through some intensive training during the past few months, the 17year old Indianapolis school girl will carry a big wallop up her sleeve for her Chicago rival in the forthcoming meet. Whether she will be able to put it over is a matter of conjecture among local enthusiasts. Miss Donnelly, Merriam says, is swimming better than ever before.

BATS PUT ASIDE IN ALL PARKS AS MARK OFRESPECT Baseball Again Pays Tribute to Harding —Indians Close Saint Series With Win. The Indians were idle today and all other baseball teams throughout the land remained off the diamonds as a mark of respect to Warren G. Harding, the nation’s chief and a man who played ball wmself in the days of his youth and who later helped boost league baseball in his home town of Marion, Ohio. Harding knew baseball and he recognized talent. He early saw big league skill in Pitcher Wilbur Cooper, now of the Pirates, and First Baseman Daubert. now -of the Reds, arid recommended both to big league scouts. Organized baseball postponed all games the day after the President died and again today, the day of the burial. Tribe Breaks Even The Indianapolis club closed its long homo stay Thursday by defeating St. Paul. 10 to 5. and with that victory the Indians gained an even split In the series with the A. A. champions. Carmen Hill did the pitching and he ■was "right.” Evidently Hill has rounded into form. Merritt and Napier hurled for the visitors. The Tribesmen clubbed their way to the Thursday win. Eddie Sicking was very prominent and also Chrlstonbury, Camobell and Rehg. Sicking also came through with a sparkling catch that ended the game. The Indians did not commit an error. Hill held, the Saints to seven hits, five of the number coming In the last two Innings. )Heavy Card at Ijoulsville The Indians will go to Louisville Saturday morning to meet the hustling Colonels In two double-headers over the week-end. The Colonels are battering away and have won numerous games recently. The Tribesmen hope to check ’em off. On Monday the Indians will return home to play the New York Yankee fin t team. Including Babe Ruth, an exhibition game Tuesday at Washington Park. After that fracas the Hendrlcksmen will hit thb trail for the West. Kansas City downed Columbus on Thursday, while the Saints were losing here, and the Blues today held a league lead of one and one-half games over the Northmen. It's a great race at the top of the A. A. heap.

He Was a ‘Regular’ Fan

(From Sporting News) It wAs particularly appropriate that baseball should do special honor tc the memory of the dead President, for Warren G. Harding was a real fan, distinct from that type of comers and goers in Washington official life who go to ball games because they have an idea it will stamp them as quite in touch with American life and maybe give them a chance to have their pictures in the newspapers. When Warren Harding was a factor fn the life of Marion, Ohio, and a figure on the town’s “Main Street” as the editor of its leading newspaper, he became one of that sort of supporters of the national game that every town of 30,000 or 40,000 knows and for the lack of whom minor league baseball would die out. Marion had its ups and downs in various minor leagues that flourished and faded as time went on in Ohio, and the town’s history tells us that Mr. Harding not only was a booster in his newspaper and saw to it that his sports editor gave the local team plenty of space, but that he also went down into his pocket when the annual

call went out for funds. At various times he was a member of the "board of directors” that hustled for the funds, hired and fired the manager and passed on the qualifications of the players. In his younger days Harding played bhseball himself as an amateur first baseman. One of his associates was Bob Allen, who became famous as a shortstop in the big leagues and now is owner of the Little Rock Club in the Southern Association. Allen took to baseball as a profession, while Harding inclined to something more serious and went into newspaper work, but they always kept up their boyhood friendship. When Harding was elected President, Allen was one of the first to congratulate him, and the man who had risen from country editor to the highest office in the land answered with a letter that began “Dear Bob.” The dead President was a product of “Main Street,” and proud of it — he began, to put it another way. as a minor leaguer and he didn’t forget his minor league associates when he graduated to the big show.
