The Fans’ Way v SHE American public has been accused of putting sport prominents on pedestals for hero worship and then tipping over the idol with a united shove. It has h en said the fans like to blow t, dr favorite? up like toy balloons and then stick pins in ' them to hear them go plop. There is some truth in these statements but there is also another side to be considered. A word must be said in favor of the sport followers who can not always be b’amed. ,At times the idol topples off its throne from its own overbalance. On occasions the balloons swell to such an extent that they burst without any outside aid> Bill Never Popular . There is some doubt whether some of the champions ever were raised to any lofty height in the minds of their followers. Tilden, tennis king and one of the greatest champions, never was a popular one because of his actions during matches. Bill never cared a great deal what the general public thought and so tle general public never thought a great deal of Bill. Dempsey is one of the heroes who lias toppled off his lofty perch because of his own actions. Now, most folks want to see him poked on his beautiful nose. Babe’s Case Babe Ruth brought about his own downfall, but he has not completely lost the hold he once had on American baseball fandom. Plenty of people want to see the Bambino stage a comeback. But at present the meteor that flashed across the baseball sky is in eclipse, hid behind the brighter light of others. / There are heroes that remain such through the years because they stand with steady feet on the heights which do not make them dizzy. They are gods because, paradoxically, they remain human. Don’t always blame the fans for fickleness. It is the fault ot the hero many times. * * • o 0 : ACROSS THiE BOARD TODAY : O 1 0 The SSOO Is stiU intact with which “Across The Board’’ started ont on Tuesday. Nlvlag finished second at Coney Island and paid $3.50 to place and $3.60 to show. A $5 across the board play shows a profit of 35 cents. Soldier II at Hawthorne was scratched. We start the day with $500.35. Today we will play Sandhurst In the fifth at Coney Island $5 to win. $5 to place and $5 to show and in the third at Coney put the same amount In the same way on Caroline. See you all Thursday. • * * jrp'l HE Pittsburgh Pirates have I very disappointing ways. In J fact, they have been noted the past few years for a tendency to “crack” at inopportune moments. At present they are running true to form. With the Giants staggering ai .ng rather uncertainly McKechnie i i.ien are far from consistent. With a good chance to improve their percentage at the top against the Boston Braves and Phillies the Pirates have been unable even’to stay at the top. Boston took them out of first place at the start of that series, but the Corsairs regained the top later. Now, Philadelphia, by winningtwo straight, has put the Giants in the lead again. One never knows what those Pirates will do. * * * Tarzan Grattan, thoroughbred which v r on the $25,000 pacing derby at Kalamazoo Grand Circuit meeting on Tuesday, is owned by Walter Candler, son of the Coca Cola king. The rich get richer and the poor get children. Probably Walter pepped his horse up before the race wth a couple bottles of “coke.” • * < Some times it pays to stand by and wait. While the rain poured down on Washington and New York Nationals Tuesday the two clubs took the lead in their respective leagues as Philadelphia and Pittsburgh obligingly ' lost. Every cloud has a sliver lining. * * * More Evolution ST seems as though one can’t get away from this evolution idea, no matter in what direction lie turns. For instance, remember the beautifully finished front-drive auto that Bennie Hill was to drive in the last Memorial day race at the local speedway? At the last minute Hill decided on another car. The other frontdrive finished in second p^ce. It is reported on good authority that the Packard company has purchased the car which did not enter the race here from Miller, the designer. It doesn't take more than, a simple little problem of putting two and two together to think of some interesting possibilities. Packard did not buy that car for nothing. If a front C ve can stand the grueling test of a 500-mile race why isn't it a possibility as a stock car? Some think it is the next step forward in the evolution of the automobile. Pilots state that the frontdrives which Miller had here steered easier than the old type. A. pull instead of a push seems the natural way of jzauling a load. That’s what the latest automotive creation does. Four-wheel brakes and balloon tires were unheard of not so long ago. The auto is in the process of evolution before our very

TRIBE IN WIND-UP ON ROAD Bushmen Close With Saints Today and Then Head for Indianapolis'. Pv Times Special ST. PAUL., July 21.—Ownie Bush’s Indians were to close their series with the Saints this afternoon and tonight the Tribesmen will depart for Indianapolis, where the Louisville Colonels will be taken on Friday at’ Washington Park.

RAY’S FEAT Schalk Hangs Up New Mark for Catchers. Bu Times Special CHICAGO, July 22.—When Ray Schalk, veteran backstop of the White Sox, doffed his mask and pads after receiving both games of the double-header here Tuesday, he established anew major league record for catchers. He had participated in 1,576 games, one more than the mark established by Jim McGuire, many years ago. Schalk came up in the fall of 1912. Then for twelve consecutive seasons he caught 100 or more games. The old record in this line of endeavor was held by George Gibson, who reached the century mark six times. When the White Sox star came to the Comiskey tribe, critics thought him too small to stand the banging of everyday work. He has replied to this taunt by outlasting every man who ever worked behind the bat.

Retirement caused a change in two tltlees when Benny Leonard and Johnny Dundee forfeited their crowns. Pancho Villa's death caused a vacancy In the flyweight championship and the others passed on in the oithodox fashion of getting a licking. Rosenberg! will have to carry a jinx that has been attached to the bantamweight title in recent years. The title has changed seven times In the past five years and Eddie Martin, who preceded Rosenberg, lost the championship the first time ho defended It. Piles of Chicago money has been sent in to back Shea and it is possible he will be an even money choice when he enters the ring. Rosenberg's backers were looking for the best price, although they were confident he would win. If the law of averages amounts to anything in boxing Rosenberg ought to retain the title, but if the jinx continues to work against the bantam champions, there may be a new champion Thursday. The contest, which Is to be fifteen rounds to a decision, will be staged for a Jewish relief fund in the Celodrome. Weather conditions this morning were threatening.
