WOMAN LEADS RAID m CULT NEAR ANDERSON Spiritualists, Many Known 'Nationally, Give Bond for Appearance. Bu Vnlted Press ANDERSON. Ind., Aug. 24 Fourteen spiritualistic mediums, some of them of national reputation, gave bond today for their appearance in court to answer charges obtaining money under false pretenses. > / Eighteen policemen, led by Sheriff Daniels of Madison County, raided Camp Chesterfield, headquarters of a religious cult, near here Sunday night and arrested the mediums on warrants sworn out by Virginia Swain, a newspaper woman from Cleveland, who had made a secret investlgatiort at the camp. Charges Hoakunt She charged the mediums were conducting seances at extortionate prices and holding conversation with the dead that were “obvious flimflam and hoakum.” During a seance Miss Swain said one of the mediums held conversation “in the spirit world” with the newspaper woman’s grandmother who is still living. The medium, according to Miss Swain, also succeeded in establishing communication with a "brother” when she gave a fictitious name and asked word from the supposed relative. ‘Lynching’ Talked Intense excitement prevailed among nearly 4,000 persons staying at the camp when the officers went from house to house rounding up the mediums. Indignant religious zealots surrounded an auto in which Miss Swain was sitting, attempted to pull her from the car and threatened to lynch her.

Billy Evans Says—

KERR’S COMEBACK mT PAYS to be a square shooter. Pitcher Dick Kerr knows. In the 1919 world series between Cincinnati and Chicago Dick Kerr of the White Sox was the outstanding hero. After the two stars of the twirling staff, Cicotte and Williams, had failed, Kerr came through with two beautifully pitched games, winning each start. Kerr’s great pitching prolonged that crooked series, made it a real battle. The breaks always favored Kerr. It just seemed that the players mixed up in the scandal were unable to toss aw r ay his games. Later came a salary grievance that caused Kerr to jump to outlaw baseball. That was in 1921. He has been out ever since. Largely through the efforts of Manager Eddie Collins, a great admirer of Kerr in the old days, Dick is back with the Chicago White Sox. the club he served so valiantly in 1919. Recently he got into his first game as relief pitcher against Detroit. As he walked from the bullpen to the pitching box he received a greeting that he always will remember. The crowd of 20,000 didn’t simply applaud, it rose to its feet and for perhaps five minutes clapped, yelled and stamped a welcome to Kerr. • * • “That ovation made up for a lot of. woe that has come my way since quitting organized baseball,” said Kerr after the game. “The public told me emphatically it is strong for the fellow who is on the square.” • • * OPPOSITE TYPES "TIS THE Philadelphia and Washington clubs of the * ■ American League come down the home stretch, it will be a battle of two dlferent types of baseball. Philadelphia has a batting punch, although of late there has been a falling off in the team’s hitting. In addition it has a good defense. Washington has a remarkable defense. No team in either major league can pull difficult double plays in a pinch with the uncanniness that characterizes the play of the world champs. The club also has a good offense. Thus we have Philadelphia with a great offense and good defense and "Washington with just the opposite. Perhaps in the dash down the home stretch these two assets of each club will equalize themselves and the results will hinge on the pitching plus all-round courage. * * * Unless one of the two clubs collapses the race probably will go to the final week if not the last day of the race. * • • PENNANT WEAPON ET’S pull a play for them.” That le an oft-used ex1 1 ~~ l I presslon of the various members of the Washington infield and catcher “Muddy” Ruel. When danger threatens and the bases are chocked, the Washington club always looks to the double play for relief. At such times you can hear every member of the Infield chattering. "Let’s pull a play for them.” It Is really remarkable the frequency with which the lnflelders do that very thing. Just scan the double plays. The hall must be handled fast and each man must be l’n his proper place. If there Is a slip on the part cf some player, everything looks bad. However,, Washington makes few slips. • • • Washington offers the double play as the greatest hancHcop to big inning rallies on the part of the opposition. ..It’s .Washington’s .best pennant weapon.
