FO FISHERS, HUNTERS VE RYW HEjRE one goes these summer days people can be heard talking about fishing—just what luck they had, where they found the finny beauties etc. In the fall the conversation will turn to hunting. But just how many of the enthusiasts of rod and reel and gun ever stop to consider some of their - responsibilities in the matter? Streams must be replenished, laws enforced to see that fish are not ruthlessly dragged out by unscrupulous anglers and wild life in general protected. Indianapolis has many sportsmen, but how many of them belong to the Izaak Waltort*” League? This city seems very backward in this regard. There are only some 150 members in the Indianapolis chapter. Ft. Wayne has some 1,000 and South Bend, 1,500, which is likely to be 2,000 before the State convention in October at Terre Haute. There is to be a reorganization of the local Izaak Walton chapter on Friday night at 8 in the Chamber of Commerce rooms. It is hoped to “pep” up tlye situation Ihere. ’ Anew president will be elected. William P. Hall, former president, has moved to New York. The committee in charge of the reorganisation is composed mostly of present officers. It is as follows: George L. Denny, vice president; John H. Hook, vice president; Fred L. Appel, treasurer; Perry W. Lesh, secretary; V. C. Roberts, who is a past vice president. Maj. R. A. P. Holderly, national field representative of the Izaak Walton League of America, is here .to aid in the reorganization. A. E. Bodine, State v organizefi-for the conservation department, also is actively engaged in furthering the plans. The Walton League in Indiana has agpne 140 chapters in various cities .and towns. The national headquarters is in Chicago. All those interested in flsli and game, reforestation and kindred subjects should be present at the meeting Friday. It seems strange that a city the size of Indianapolis has such a scanty membership when there are so many undoubtedly interested. The sportsmen are here. It seems only a question of reaching them. There could be no more worthy cause. If only for selfish reasons the hunters and fishers should be vitally concerned. * * * One fight we’d like to see— Berlenbach vs. Delaney, Thursday liighfc at Brooklyn. Considering past performances it is | difficult to choose the winner. The battlers are likely to enter the ring even choices in the betting. Just got a hunch that there will be anew light-heavy champ to talk about next Friday.
THOSE FAIRVIEW COURTS mT seems a shame that the Fairview Park ten a is courts have been allowed to fall into - disrepair this summer. The courts are easily accessible and when they were kept up always proved popular with the racquet wielders. * , The situation is rather peculiar at the north side park. Butler University has purchased the ground for its new site. Justus Paul, graduate manager of athletics, says that thp city was informed the park board could have the use of the tennis courts this summer. Somewhere a cog has slipped and the courts have not been kept in shape. This city has many nety enthusiasts and at other parks players are forced to wait their turn. The Fairview courts would help out a lot. It would take very little to get them into playing condition. * * * Those who put their good money , on Shampoo to win the first race at the Washington Park, Chicago track, Monday, received a trimming along with the Shampoo. It wasn’t even a close shave. The favorite was some three lengths feback. Next! P NOBODY WANTS 'EM * JiOST everybody always did jVL think the Brooklyn Nation- *— -J al League . team was a bunch of misfits with a whale of a pitching staff. Now it is almost , certain, if a story out of Chicago is true. Press dispatches state ■ that Manager Robinson told his r players he had waivers on ten of " them, so “to get out there and play ball.” The Robing are in fourth place with ten men nobody else wants! Uncle Wilbert, indeed, must be a miracle man.' * * * MONDAY’S “BONER” majors some ball player t__J pulls a “boner” that would be hooted on the And they get plenty of dough, too, for being the pick of the country in the great national pastime. Monday at Cincinnati Johnny • Mokan of Philadelphia strolled leisurely off third base when Nixon drew a pass and was tagged r out by Catcher Hargrave of the Reds. ' Mokan evidently thought he was forced hofl. There was a man on first at ttie time, but . none on second. Just another one for the joke book.

TRIBE CLOSES WITH SENATORS; PLAY IN LOUISVILLE THURSDAY
FOREIGN STAR TO APPEAR Mrs. Godfree to Play in U. S. —Other Tennis Notables May Enter Meet. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 13.—Announcement by Mrs. Kathlene McKane Godfree, Wimbledon singles and doubles champion, made to the United States Lawn Tennis Association that she will make her third visit to the United States this summer, assures the women’s national tennis championship of an interesting international complexion. Mrs. Godfree, on her past record and the form she showed in the hard court championships in Part} and the Wimbledon tournament, is now the third ranking player in the world with a chan.ce to ascend to second place if she should win at Forest Hills. All hope that Mile. Suzanne Lenglen, the French queen, might be enticed So play at Forest Hills were abandoned after she broke down at Wimbledon. There is a possibility that two of the finest and most interesting young players in Europe—Senorita d’Alvarez, the Spanish champion and finalist at Wimbledon, Mile. Katrinlca Bouman, the Holland champion, may play at Forest Hills. Helen Wills, the national champion, is certain to defend her title, as she feels that she has recovered completely from her operation and that her game will be improved as a result. The young California girl intends to play also in two of the preliminary tournaments, but she hasn't decided definitely on her schedule.

Finale With Columbus Today—Tailenders Slip One Over and Win Monday. By Eddie Ash After taking a pasting at the hands of the cellar Senators, Monday, the Indians were to close their series with the visitors here this afternoon and then rest Wednesday; - before going to Louisville to battle the champion Colonels Thursday and Friday. Louisville comes here for games Saturday and Sunday and about 2,000 Colonel rooters will make the trip to Indianapolis for the Sabbathday fracas. The Tribe pitching staff of six huttocs was exhausted Monday and Dutch Henry went to the mound with only two days’ rest. He was minus much of his cunning ns a result and Columbus solved him for twelve hits and eight runs. / Oft Lyons and Sommers, the Indians got eleven hits and four runs. Stopped by Lefty The Bushmen drove Lyons, a right hander, from the mound, but when Sommers, a southpaw, took up the Senator twirling Job the locals were stopped and they failed to score again. Sommers held the Indians to four hits and no runs in five and two-thirds innings. It is evident, therefore, that the Tribesmen have a weakness against left-handed pitching. It is true the Indians have a number of right-handed batters, but Rehg and Hartley are the .only stickers with high averages who swing that way. Shannon and Holke are “turn hitters, but Holke is weak swinging right-handed. Yoter, Sicking, Miller and Ainsmith are among tho right-handers, but they are not heavy producers of base hits. The pitching staff consisting of six has only four mainstays, Hill, Speece, Burwell and Henry. Wlsner and Thompson have not displayed enough to be regarded as dependables. The season Is only half gone and with the team In third place there is stiil a chance of “going somewhere” If the club officials are successful in making more deals to bolsi.er the mound staff ■and balance the batting attack. Brewers Edge Up Louisville lost again to Toledo, Monday and Milwaukee won. The Brewers are only one and one-half games back of the leaders. Louisville is six gunes ahead of Indianapolis, Milwaukee Is four and onehalf games In advance of the Bushmen. The Brewers, drawing big gates, have stfengthened their pitching and are becoming a powerful peiyiant contender. The Indians got away to a tworun lead over the Senators here Monday, but Columbus came back with three In the second stanza. One more, was registered by the In the third. A Tribe rally in the fourth scored two runs and knotted the count at four and four. Columbus rallied in the eighth for three markers and scored again In the ninth. The Indians did not score after the fourth. Maury Shannon was outstanding for the Indians with a triple, double and single. He drove in three runs and scored the other on Rehg's single in the fourth. If weather interfered with today’s pastiming, the teams will play Wednesday. Indianapolis has won three of four in the series.

Puzzling Plays —" By Billy Evans How la it potwlhle to make a double slay5 lay when two runner* are standing on te same base? • • • It Is impossible to make a double plav In such a wtuation unless the runners play dumb bahebail. All that is necessary to eliminate any chance for a double play is for the original occupant of the base to stay there. If he does, only one mi n can be retired. When two runners are ofi the same base, touching of the runner who advanced to that base retire* him. The only way to get two men is for the runner who is entitled to the bag to become confused and step off the base. This would permit him to be touched out for a double play if the man handling the ball was on nls toes.

!■"'*n he "Dicks” raided the Terre IT* I Haute Country Club Monduy 1-1 afternoon. It was not a sleuthing party, either. * The “Dicks” mentioned were from Indianapolis, but had no connection with the Indianapolis police department. Jn fact they proved to be a couple of sharpshooters. The ones we refer to were Dick Nelson, pro at Highland Golf and Country Club, and Dick Gant, amateur at tho same club. Playing in the pro-amateur meet over the Terre Haute course Menday Nelson and Gant played a best ball card of 69 to win. They were one stroke better than Dell Blnsbacher and George Brubaker of Robinson, 111., who scored 70. Four Indianapolis players monopolized the thirdplace honors with a tie, at 71. They were Lee Nelson and Mack Duffey of the Country Club, Wallle Sparks of Meridian Hills and George Denny of Woodstock. Johnny Simpson, former State champion, and Bob Smith of Terre Haute* doped as probable winners before the meet, could not compete (Turn to Page 10)
