STiiinmiiiiiiiiiiiniiimiiiniiniiiniiiiiimiiinniiniiiinniiniininininiinninnwj TIRRIN’ the DOPE ' By VEDDER GARD MHiUllllllllUilllill r ■ | VIENNA nose specialist, I hb I Dr. Peoria, comes to bat L*VI from far across the sejas. He brings up an ’old subject to say that Jack Dempsey needs a “punch-proof'’ nose—the doctor's own invention. Doc says his noses are made of ivory and silver wire, which a,re more durable than Jack's present made-over one. The Vienna surgeon believes Dempsey's paraffin nose lessens his chances against Tunney. Doc probably doesn’t know anything about it, but that doesn't make any difference. After a subject gets so old it becomes new again. Nobody has said anything about Jack's nose for a long time. Dr. Peoria (not of Illinois) must have picked up an old newspaper somewhere. This may start the nose business all over again. * * * The latest song In Indianapolis is the Kansas City Blues. It is sung at Washington Park, hut not a popular melody and, thank goodness, cannot last long. The Blues depart alter Saturday’s game. * * * SHE Three-I Leaguers are having a tight little pennant race and one of the Hoosier teams was- tied for first place after Thursday's games. Eyansville by a victory over Peoria was deadlocked at the top with the Illinois club before today's contests. Six teams in the ldop are over .500. All have a chance at the flag with the leaders not far ahead i with a percentage of .565. Terre Haute, the other Indiana club, is fourth with .538 per cent in the standings. * * * Prestige is everything. The horses are swarming at Saratoga track, which opened today. At % Chicago only seven care to try for a SIOO,OOO prize in the American Derby at the new Washington Park track. * * mT’9 just one thing after another at Culver Military academy. With the State junior golf tourney just completed, along comes the western boys and juniors' open clay court tennis tourney at the Indiana school starting Monday. Stars of ten States have entered the meet, including Emmett Pare, national junior clay court champion. Four Pacific coast junibrs will compete.

Strange are the ups and downs of a baseball player’s life. Roger Peckinpaugh seems to be mostly up. The New York Yankees sent the veteran shortstop to Washington and (lie Senators immediately won two pennants with the acompanying lucrative return for the players in the world series. Now the Yanks want Peck—have claimed him by the waiver route—and Roger may get in on another world series melon cutting. i * * mHE open season for hunting squirrels in Indiana begins on Aug. 1, Under laws of this State squirrels may be killed from Aug. I until Dec. 1. There is no bag limit and they may he sold in the open season for food. As Aug. 1 falls on Sunday this year and as it is unlawful to huflt on Sunday the season is reality starts next Monday. It is reported that squirrels are plentiful this year. Quails also have increased 'wonderfully. One •ees them almost always while driving along the country roads. 1* * * Johnny Weissmuller, aquatic star, is reported engaged to be married. It is to be hoped that thing go along swimmingly with the couple. * * • If it's not one thing it's anhther in baseball.

TUNNEY BELIEVES SUPERIOR CONDITION WILL GIVE HIM EDGE

CRIPPLED LINE-UP FALTERS Five of Six Runs Off Burwell Unearned Colonels Back in Lead. Louisville was back on top in the A. A. again today while the Indians found themselves a few more points removed from first place. Bill Meyer's Colonels downed the Brewers, Thursday, 5 to 4, in the seesaw series at Louisville, but the Bushmen fell before the K. C. Blues here, 6 to 3. Kansas City has played six games in Indianapolis this season and has managed to escape defeat at Washington Park.' Bill Burwell was the victim Thursday when his defense cracked, five of the visitors’ six runs being unearned. He did not allow a hit until the fifth. Sicking Handicapped The absence of Shannon has begun to prove ccstly. Sicking is playing short, handicapped by a lame arm. Eddie is out there, hut it is punishment. He is performing with a plaster on his right shoulder. Yoter gave the Blues a run in the first inning Thursday on a wild throw to first, and in the sixth Sicking was charged with two miscues that played a large part in the K. C. four-run rally in that round. The Indians knocked Olsen off the Blue mound, but Heinie Meine went in and there wasn't much doing from a Tribe standpoint in the late Innings. Umpires Magerkurth and Derr cracked along with, the Tribe infield and whenever they .booted a decision the Indians were the victims. Jack Wisner was in line to do the Tribe pitching in the third struggle of the series today. ,Carmen Hill also was reported ready for duty. Zinn and Oldham were in shape to toil for the Blues. The K. C. series will end Saturday and on Sunday the Milwaukee Brewers will play a double-header here to start a fivegame series. Citizen Soldiers Today was "ladies’ day’’ and "kids' day.” Citizen soldiers from Ft. Benjamin Harrison were guests of the Tribe club officials Thursday and about 1.000 of the khaki-clad young men were present. They had a band with them. The C. M. T. £. hoys gave the Indians plenty of encouragement, but it was wasted. About 1,300 regular fans attended. The crippled Tribe line-up was certain to "blow" sooner or later and it seems as though the explosion has occured.

The Indians were three and onehalf games back of the Colonels today and three games behind the' Brewers. For the second day the Bushmen outhlt the Blues by one blow, but lost. Burwell drove in one of the Tribe’s three runs Thursday. On YVednesday Henry drove in the lone local marker. The Indian pitchers are doing Iheir very best to keep the dub from tobogganing. Rehg delivered with timely singles Thursday and drove in two runs. Miller accepted ten chances at second. Sicking, with a lame shoulder, accepted ten out of twelve. Rehg made a fine throw to the plate after snaring Tierney’s short fly fn the seventh, but the ball took a puzzling hop over Ainsmith’s head. Smith scored after the catch, but he would have been an easy out but for the break in luck on the throwin. If Smith had been retired the Blues would have won, 5 to 3, all K. C. runs unearned. YVTien his defense went to pieces In the sixth Burwell weakened and four hits were obtained off him in that stanza. Moore’s catch off Ainsmlth in the ninth was the outstanding garden play Thursday. A long run was necessary. Louisville beat out Milwaukee Thursday in the last half of the ninth. After one out, Gaffney doubled. Shanks was retired, but Wilkinson came through with a timely single, scoring Gaffney with the winning run.

MISS GERAGHTY TELLS OF SWIMMING SUCCESS High School Girl, Holder of Ten Records, Lists Pointers for Aquatic Beginners.

By Paul YV. White, Copyright. 1926, by tinted Press NEW Y'ORK, July 30.—The secret of swimming success, to take 18-ycar-old Agnes Geraghty as authority, is to begin young, keep at it and love it. Two of those rules have been followed by Miss Oeraghty, but the first was ignored. Not until four years ago could she swim a stroke. "If only I had learned to swim when I was a little girl," complained the champion in an interview with the United Press correspondent, "I would be able now to do far Better." Here was modesty, indeed. For only a few nights ago Miss Oeraghty established her tenth world's record for breast stroke swimming, clipping 4 1-5 seconds off the previous mark for the 220 yard breast stroke. Miss Oeraghty had been almost a year in pursuit of the record. Two Independent and Amateur Baseball .The Elks beseba.ll club will - play at vthitestown Sunday.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

5. Doip played sensational golf all the way through the tournament and skipped through a field which included some of the greatest simon-pures in the country.

weeks ago she felt herself slipping. “My friends tcld me I was losing my speed and advised me to take a vacation from the water," she said in describing what she termed her greatest triumph, "hut I kept practicing and *cfore long felt myself In form again. At that 1 don't think my swimming was as good as usual and was surprised when they told me I had broken the record." The young champion is tall and lithe. Despite the many plunges in salt water Rhe is not tanned. “I wteh I could tan,” she smiled. “But I don’t—l freckle.’’ Thrilled by Racing But even the freckles, dimmed by the "Tiger" bathing suit of vivid orange, yellow and black stripes, can not mar the girl's enjoyment of swimming. She is "thrilled" by racing. she is "critzy about splashing around” and "there is no sport like it." "I never thought I would like to swim.” she said. "When I was in grade school I couldn't understand why so many of the gids wasted their time at the beach. “But in high school I saw Helen Wainwright swim, and I decided to try. That was four years ago. I trained for a year before entering competition, so I really have rachd only three years.’’ Miss Geraghty will he graduated from high school next year. After wards she Intends to enter a training school for gymnasium Instructresses. She already has definite ideas about swimming training for young girls. These may be listed as follows: I. Learn to swim when yon’re vonnr. If you find you can't swim easily, stay in the water, hold on to something and kick Sour feet. In time you will gain eminence, 2. Get a good teacher. It Is Impossible to see your own faults. 3. Hton when yon get tired. The best way to develop endurance is to stop short of exhaustion. 4. Watch good swimmers, bnt don’t trv to copy their style unless assured that your own style is weak. 5. Learn one stroke well at a time. Begin with the American crawl. It is less tiring. 6. Wear a snug and brief bath.'ng salt. 7. Don’t get discouraged. Swim every day that you can. Long "layoffs" are generally disheartening. Miss Geraghty also revealed some of the mechanical secrets of her own success. Unlike her predecessors in the breast stroke, she brings her feet together with a snap after each kick, this sudden movement acting to spur her forward. She also provides a variant in failing to take advantage of her full reach, keeping her elbows bent throughout the stroke. “Other swimmers told me such innovations would be harmful, but I'm glad I dtdrt’t believe them.” -The last word of the interview, which took place at Long Beach, was a splash.

Johnston arrived in New York today. Seven of the first ten ranking players in the country will compete in the tournament. The A§h Pile By Eddie John McGraw refuses to count the Giants out of the National League pennant fight. This is one time John doesn’t have to speak for himself. Gene Tunney says he figures he'll be in a better mental condition than Dempsey when they battle in September. That’s a hard slam to take al the sheik champ, who is doing Ills best to look educated. If Gene is going to kid Jack about his mentality, the Manassa Mauler may decide to knock the challenger for a row of brain cells. At any rate sport page readers are going to he handed a lot of punishment before the heavies climb into the ring. Pictures of Estelle Taylor and Dempsey are certain to appear countless times.

Challenger for Dempsey’s Crown Banks on Physical and Mental Fitness. Following is an niterview by wire with Gene Tunney, who haa stepped into the charmed circle of fistic celebrities regarded as a match for the world's champion battler, and who thinks he is Jack Dempsey's master. Tunney gives what he regards as the determining factor of the forthcoming big fight and outlines his plans for preparing tor the champion. By Henry L. Farrell, Sports Editor of the United Press Vopyriyht, 1926, by United Press NEW YORK, July 30.—Physical and mental fitness will win the battle between Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney. according to Tunney. And, in an interview over the wires with the writer, the big Marine declared, with enthusiastic emphasis, that he expected to be the superior of the champion in both respects when the gong sounds for their scheduled fray, Sept. 16. “I am at present in' excellent condition and feel that two weeks’ boxing will fit me for the greatest trial of my career,” Tunney declared. Principal Factor “This matter of condition will be the principal factor In deciding the winner and I am positive that I will be in far better condition, both physically and mentally than the champion when we climb through the ropes on Sept. 16 at the Yankees' field." "What do you expect to weigh in at?" I asked him. "My weight at present is 193 pounds,” Gene replied. “I am to get down to 188, which will lie perfect fighting weight for me." "How about the fellows you're going to train with? Dempsey's 'a hard fighter.” "I intend seeking the toughest and strongest boxing fellows for the heavy work that we can induce to join our camp. I also will have a couple of lighter fellows around for the fast %vork.” Training Quarters As to his training quarters, Tunney said: “I expect to hiuld anew training camp at the resort of my old buddy, William Osborne, at Lake Pleasant, Hamilton County, in the heart 6f the Adirondacks.” And then just to show that his senss of humor wasn't affected by the approach of the ‘‘greatest trial of my career," he asked the writer to go along as a sparring partner "to sharpen my eye and add to my agility.” “And bring along Dan Mahoney from Dayton, too, for some of the heavier workouts.’’ he added.

A last minute change put Johnny Maiben instead of Everett BameS 1 on Display. Alfred Johnson will rida 1 Boot to Boot; Willie Stamper, Boltonj Earl Pool,' Smiling Gus; Howaid Elston, Open Hand; L. Schaefer, David L., and Benny Bruening, Black Maria. Despite the absence of Crusader, Bagenbaggage, Blondin and other stars, the race has developed much interest among followers of the turf, most of whom are giving their support to Display, Black Marla, the only filly, and Boot to Boot. Failure of the highly touted horses to appear will probably have its effect on Derby day attendance.
