the DOPE By VEDDER GARD

EITTLE by little football is easing into the sport picture, ft won’t be long now. One reads here and there of grid activities— anew assistant coach for Notre Dame; Bill Ingram on his way to Annapolis; Butler prospects; first meeting of independent elevens, etc. Sports writers are about ready to dust off that old one about the thud of the pigskin—which isn’t pigskin at all. * * Pitoher Kolp is imUatifig his manager, Nick Alien, too well. For his last outburst President Hickey of the A. A. handed out a five-day suspension. One does . not have to pitch if he is ■"Suspended. * • * The president of the National Association of the Deaf said in a speech that deaf and dumb girls make the best wives. Now if he had just added, blind. But then one can’t expect everything. • * • Pitcher (Hippo) Thompson, released on option to the Terre Haute club of the Three-I a league by the Indians, lost his W first start Wednesday in ten innings to Bloomington, 3 to 2. “Firpo” tossed away his own game when he threw wild to second in the tenth and the winning run went over. The big fVtlow a'ways did liave a terrible time fielding his position. *• * * VERYTHING Is more or less a matter of comparison. —-—J Babe Ruth blasted out his thirty-seventh home run on Wednesday in the second game of the double-header against Washington. What a remarkable achievement that is. Yet, one always asks, “What was Babe's record when he hit fifty-nine?” Sad to relate. Babe is exactly six homers behind. On Aug. 11, 1.121, Bambino crashed out his forty-third. • e * There is anew champion. Otto Woedt of Egg Harbor, Wis., picked 420 quarts of cherries in one day. Tliat’s what one might say is climbing the ladder to fame. % ,• • • Interest next week among tennis fans will center upon the women’s national tourney. Heln Wills, In defense of her title, is likely to meet Elizabeth Ryan, who has defeated Helen twice. If there is a new champion It is likely to be Elizabeth. No one else seems capable of dethroning Mis* Wills, • • * X JiTH the proposed DempseyV yfd Tunney fight only a little . more than a month away, the affair is rather badly muddled. The only one who seems to know what he is about is Tex Rickard. Asa proposition iiv volving so much money, the heavyweight battle had better get on a sound basis shortly. Tex's affairs usually are on much better footing. Confidence in Rickard is the thing which makes the fight seem a reality. The ups and downs so far have been nothing short of ridiculous. It is to be hoped that the ring battle, itself, will not in any way resembled the preliminaries. No wonder that race horse fell Wednesday at Chicago. Even a dumb animal couldn't bear up under a name like Hum Kalessi. • * • Here’s a tip for Gertrude Ederle. She should play Ocean Current in the fourth'race at Lincoln Fields track at Chicago* today.

Farrell United Press ktatt Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 12.—The SU/3 boxing commission today once mort approved a bout between Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney, to take place on gept. 16 at the Yankee stadium here, and notified its license committee that the heavyweight champion had complied with ail rules and should be granted a license. Farley Protests The comipission’s action came on a record 2-to-l vote, with Commissioners William Muldoon and George Brower favoring the bout and Chairman James A. Farley registering a protest. The license committee, which on Tuesday deferred action on Dempsey’s application for a license, is scheduled to meet again Monday, unless a special meeting is called beforehand, so that the last remaining obstacle to the fight may be removed. Signified Willingness The State commission decided today that the champion, by signing three contracts, none of which was consummated, to fight Wills, had signified his willinguaes to accept the big Negro's challenge. Hence the commissioners today in effect accepted the challenge of Tunney and gave permission for a Tun-ney-Dempsey bout. The license committee is not bound to accept this, but the fighters and Rickard are confident they will do so. Dempsey plans to leave tonight for his training camp up-State. ——— ...

Final Set of Match With * Richards-Williams Goes Thirty-Two Games. Bu United Press FOREST HILLS, N. Y., Aug. 12. —William Tllden and William Johnston today were looked upon as the logical choice of the Davis. Cup committee for the doubles team to represent America in the cup championships. This despite their defeat in two matches out of three by iVincent Richards and his partner R. Norris Williams during the cup trials this week. In a match Wednesday the two “Bills" showed their real wares. In straight sets they found a gallant way to victory over the two men who had beaten them. The set scores in the final match were 6-2, 6-4, 17-15. The final set was tennis history, and sparkled with dazzling strokes, cannon ball deliveries and magnificent lobs. The first two sets, played under a hot sun, were relatively listless, all four players markedly showing effects of the high humidity. But the final fray, which \w#nt to thirty-two games, was in a N class entirely by itself. Only one break in service occurred. Cannon-ball deliveries were met by beautiful counter strokes. Lightning-like slashes at the net occurred, the ball traveling too fast for the spectator’s ,eye to see. The break for victory came when Tilden and Johnston finally crashed through Richards’ service. Each team had won the same number of sets, five, in their three matches., Another upset occurred Wednesday when A. H. Chapin, Jr., and O. M. Lott, Jr., defeated Edward G. Chandler and Levy's N. White, 6-4, 6-4, 1-6, 7-9 and 6 4.

RI LES AND NOTICES The rules of the United States Golf As soeiation, except as modified bv local rulea of this association, will govern play. The pairings and time of starting for each pair will be announced through the prrss and also posted oh the bulletin board at the dub. Any player who fails to up pear at the first teeing-ground within .fifteen minutes of the time he is called to play will be disqualified, unless reasons Ba"factnrv to the rnmraittee be given. The score cards mußt be correct and be kepi m strict compliance with Rule 6. special rules for stroke competitions. Competitors whose cards are not so .kept will be disqualified. Scorers should acquaint themselves with the rules before the round for which they are to score is started. All disputes must be referred to the directors of the association present, whose decisions shall be final. The privileges of the course are extended to all entrants for one week prior to the tournament * * * The Indianapolis Athletic Club will be the downtown headquarter*, and all entrants who wish their reservations taken care of may obtain such courtesy by addressing tho committee there. • * * According to our book of rules. Mrs. C. A. Jaqua rilled herself out of fifth low gross prize competition at Pleasant Run Tuesday because she felt she deserved a twostroke penalty, instead of one. Tho women were enjoying an invitational State-wide tourney, and Mrs. Jaqua drove a ball that struck her caddy, who was on top of the hill oil tho twelfth fairway. She counted herself or.e additional Btroke for the act, and her card at eighteen holes read 100. Thus she was in a tie with Mrs. A. A. McClamrook of Frankfort for fifth low gross position. The Incident troubled Mrs. Jaqua. and she insisted she thought she should have incurred a two-stroke penalty and refused to be in the prize award. Outsiders don’t settle golf questions, but according to the little blue book. Rule 19, “When your own ball strikes or is stopped by your partner, or either player's caddy or clubs, a onestroke penalty is incurred, and in match plav the loss of the hole." We have noticed in recent tourneys that numerous occasions arise where tho exact ruling is necessary. It might be well, before 1927. for both the State and city associations to get their book of rules and have it on hand at all tournaments, and then elect a committee of three to interpret the rule in Question. Golf is a game of numerous rules, and they must be interpreted quickly to make tournaments st^pcessful. NORTHLAND WINNER Bu United Press SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.' Y..

Bu Timm Special \ KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 12, The fourth fray of the lifflian-Blue series was on for today and It was to be Dutch Henrjr on the Trihe mound. Zinn was ready for K. C. slab duty and was reported in shape. The Blues have plenty of pitchers. The Indians are not that fortunate. The Hooslers are going alpng with six hnxnicn and it in a puzzle to many A. A. critics liow Ownie Rush manages to keep his team near the front handicapped as he is by a shortage of twirlem. The Indians captured both ends of Wednesday’s double-header here, winning the first battle, 4 to 3, and the second, 7 to 6. Burwetl an 1 Melne engaged In a tight mound duel in the Wednesday opener and the finish of the conflict was “gripping.” After two were out in the ninth two Blues got on base and Hill relieved Burwell. Branom reached first, filling the bason, on a drive that Hill knocked down with his bare hand; Carmen then worked on Grigsby and fanned him for the game-ending out. It was a great stop Hill made on Branom and probably prevented K. C. tying the score. Reb Russell tied the count in the seventh by blasting a triple that scored Matthews and Sicking. Reb tried to make a homer on the drive, but was nailed at the plate. Rehg, who ran for Alnsmith, was doubled atj the plate in the ninth inning of the flrst fracas on Matthews’ short fly to Grigsby. The Blues made two other double plays that held down Tribe scoring. The Indians scored winning run in the Wednesday opener in the eighth on timely hits by Fisher and Yoter.

It was Reb Russell’s big bat again that put the Indians in position to win the second fracas. He tripled in the eighth and drove in two runs. * The Rushmen were forced to come from behind to win each struggle.

WILLS’ MANAGER CALLS HEAVY CHAMP ‘A RAT’ Mullins and Dempsey Nearly Stage Free Fisticuffs —Effort to Buy Harry’s Challenge Hinted.

Bu United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 12.—Amid a barrage of insults, Paddy Mullins, manager of Harry Wills, Negro heavyweight, today challenged Jack Dempsey to a battle removed from the canvas ring and hostilities were avoided only by the timely intervention of friends. The heavyweight champion and the Negro’s manager were standing outside the offices of the State athletic commission and had drawn back for a punch when the belligerents were led away. Wilis Out of Practice Mullins’ ire had just been aroused when the commission approved a bout between Dempsey and Gene Tunney, shoving Wills, previously recognized challenger, to one side. Mullins stopped Dempsey as the latter was leaving the offices with Tex Rickard, promoter of the Dempsey-Tunney go. “That’s fine trick you pulled bn me; you’re a big rat,” Mullins said causticly to the champion. “What do you mean by 'rat'?” asked Dempsey, flushing. "Just what I say. You sent me a telegram last year saying you would fight Wills.” Dempsey denied having done so, whereupon Mullins said, “I’ll bet you SI,OOO you did.” “That’s a bet," said Dempsey.

puzzled over his mound selection for Friday. About 2,000 fans witnessed the Wednesday bargain attraction. Terriflc boat held down attendance. The Indians are not collecting much revenue in this series. They expect to profit financially in Milwaukee, however, because they open a fourgame series there Saturday. Milwaukee braced/ Wednesday and “took” the leading Colonels in a close fray, 7 to 6. The Louisville hustlers threatened to overhaul the Brewers, but were nosed out. liOuUville was three games and a fraction ahead of Indianapolis today and only two games out hi front of the< second-place Brewers. Milwaukee was one game and a fraction ahead of the Indians. The fourth-place Toledo Hens had. a double bill carded at St. Paul Wednesday, but were rained out.

Mullins then pulled a roll of bills from his pocket and counted out the money. A Cheap Guy “I don’t have that much with me," the champion put in. “I thought not," observed Mullins. "That’s the kind of a cheap guy you are. I've got a notion to take a crack at you, and if you’ll step into the next room I’ll fight you, even if you won’t go up against my fighter.” "It’s a good thing for you that you’re an old man,” Dempsey shouted. Whereupon Mullins drew back his arm. So did Dempsey. Deputy Commissioner Curry threw himself against Mullins and Gene Normile, the champion’s business manager, grabbed Dempsey. Mullins was still boiling with rage. “Here’s something you may not know,” he told newspaper men. “Tex Rickard, through an agent, offered me $50,000 if I would withdraw the challenge of Harry Wills, which had been accepted by the commission." Mullins declined to name the agent, but hinted that he might take the affair to court. Wills’ challenge long stood in the way 'of the Tunney fight. The Ash Pile | By Eddie Papa Ederle Is proving a high pressure cheer leader for daughter Gertrude. Old Pop is said to have thrown an immense champagne party in celebration of TriwHe’s channel swim. He Is celebrating over there where the stuff is cheaper. He is filled with shouts and conversation and he doesn't care to cheer In whispers, which Yankee "house rules" demand. According to Pop’s theory, water Is made for Trudle to swim in. He’s doing his swimming in bottled goods. Miss Ederie’s amazing achievement appears to have ruined a perfectly good butcher. Trudle is the non-stop water champion. She started and finished with the same complexion. Sausage sales took- a jump in Milwaukee Wednesday evening. The Brewers finally beat the Colonels.
