r~iHE football season must be r 1 j approaching. We were talk--1 - I mg to a University of Illinois alumnus the other day and he was full of grid dope. ‘Who's your Red Grange this year?" we ask^d. He wasn’t sure, but said, ‘‘You had better watch a youth by th 6 name of Stewart." Now if this dope about Stewart Is correct we will claim some credit for the Hoosier State. Stewart is a six-footer, who weighs "around" 180 pounds—corn-fed from Battleground. Ind. Mike Tobin, publicity director, probably will find another Grange, anyway. No use worrying about it until Mike gets busy on his trusty typewriter. • * * It begins to look as though there will be more ‘‘applesauce" than ever this year. Reports are to the effect that the American apple crop is the largest in history. This should be a great season for the publicity boys, who like to spread it on. * * • mHE feature of t*he IndianaKentucky A. A. U. track and field championships held at the State fairground today and Saturday is likely to be the pole vault tomorrow;. Paul Har- . rlngton, famous Notre Dame vaulter, Is entered. ■ .Brewer Graham, formerly of Butler, and Rubush, Manual High School star, are other good ones. There’s real class in that event. ** • ' That was a tremendous crowd at Broad Ripple Thursday night. Wish we could believe they went out to see the swimmers. You know there was a bathing beauty contest in connection with the meet. * * * ally got “in the swim” on -I Thursday night. Although she had paid her entry fee on Wednesday and had a good chance to place in a couple events she couldn't "get In." ,Some of the officials became so impressed with their own importance that Regina couldn't cross the little rope to get with the rest of the contestants, although she had on her bathing suit. She became disgusted finally and quit trying. There are too many officials around that do nothing but wear a ribbon and strut their stuff. • • • r "INOTHER highly successI A J ful swim meet has been staged by Paul R. Jordan. It is a habit with that gentleman. Indiauapolis may be an inland city, but it "goes” for the aquatic snort. that’s just the reason—because tlie people here want to see something different. Broad Ripple pool Is about the largest body of water some of the folks ever looked at. One tiling is certain—nobody ever looked at a girl go through the water like Ethel MeGary in that record smashing performance In the 880-yard free style Tuesday bight. It was a truly remarkable performance—the gem of the tourney. • * * Lookee at St. Louis Cards! Hold back those Mound City fans! They’re going to tear something down if Hornsby’s crew cops that National League pennant. Where are they going t,o put the bugs this Sunday with the Giants furnishing the opposition? • * * Lincoln fields, the new Chicago track, is being callled the fastest racing strip in the United States. It is likely that American records will fall before the meeting is over. On Thursday Mary O went the mile in the dazzling time of 1:56. That’s within three-fifths second of the American record of Cherry Pie. They’re going to fall. Watch and see!

- THE ASH PILE— By Eddie
The tail-end Senators defeated the league-leading Brewers Thursday. Maybe the Brewers celebrated too much after scalping the Indians. Well, they have the'town to do it in. Live convention delegates are not given "koys to the city" any more. They are handed a batch of addresses and a city map. In Milwaukee they don't give visitors that much information. They just turn ’em loose. That Greater Movemat certainly has taken hold. Even the houses are moving. That must be a smart statistician who - compiles all those swim records. The peddlers break ’em faster than tile average man can push a pencil. International free-for-all Channel swim project has been, abandoned. Many reputations have been saved. Tunney and Dempsey are going to box in the City of Brotherly Love.

Lillian Postpones Channel Swim
BV United Press CAPE GRIS NEZ, France. Aug. 20.—Lillian Cannon of Baltimore was ready to attempt to swim across the English channel, but a strong wind and heavy seas forced postponement. She said she would start at the first favorable opportunity. Lillian has received numerous cablegrams from the United States urging her on to the conquest of the channel, which has defeated every woman but Gertrude Ederle. The swimming colony here, Including Lillian, still Is angry about the British criticism of Gertrude's successful channel swim. Lillian said she regarded her rival’s success as a gallant and sportsmanlike effort, although Rritish newspapers had intimated Gertrude was unduly assisted by the presence of two accompanying tugs.
FORT FIGHTS Forbes to Box Alte, Glick to Meet Lavelle. Changes have been made In the fistic card to be staged at Ft. Benjamin .Harrison next Tuesday night and the complete program, as rearranged by Captain Clark, matchmaker, is as follows: Ten RotimU—Harry Forbe*. Coltimhna, Ohio, va. Merle Alte, Indianapolis; 123 pound*. ! Ten Hounds—Louie LaTelle. Anderson, | -'*. Sidney Glick, Indianapolis; ratchi weirbwi. Sl* Rounds—Frankie Jones, Louisville, vs. ’’Siv-Srcond” Smith of New Albany, Ind.: 150 pounds. Si * Round*—Rattling Rudd, Terre Haute, vs. Rattling H&nnisoii, Akron, Ulnu; 125 pounds. Four Rounds —Major Howard. Lafayette, vs. Soldier Shannon. Ft. Harrison; l(i(i pounds. This card looks better than the original line-up. Chuck Wiggins was slated to box the veteran Jeff Smith in the main go, but Ray Alvls, Wlggin’s manager, evidently decided Smith would make a poor match for the Hoosier champion and he requested another opponent be obtained. Captain Clark decided It was too late to make a substitution and he dropped Wiggins and Smith from the card. Jim Mahoney, Chicago, and "Walloping Wop,” Louisville, also were dropped. The new double wind-up was arranged after ijn all-night Job of long-distance telephoning and telegraphing on the part of Captain Clark, and It is believed the new program will prove more attractive to the fans than the original card. Harry Forbes surprised the customers last Wednesday night In the “punch bowl,” by outpointing Ray Rychell, and there many suggestions made during this scrap that Forbes should be matched against Merle, and when Alte was communicated vylth Thursday evening he agreed to make 122 pounds for the match. Forbes will weigh about 119. 9-TO-5 ODDS ON CHAMP Dempsey Rules Favorite Over Tunney in Wall Street Betting.

LAUFER BETTERS RECORD IN EXHIBITION SWIM Cincy Star Clips One-Fifth Second From 100 Meter Back Stroke Mark —Huge Crowd on Hand.
Before a huge crowd that packed every inch of available-space around the Broad Ripple pool the A. A. U. swim tourney came to a close Thursday night with another record break lng performance as the supposed feature, although the bathing beauty contest probably brought out most of the people. Walter Laufer of Cincinnati, premier back-stroke swimmer, churned through the water in an exhibition 100-meter back stroke attempt and was clocked in 1:12.2. That time is one-fifth of a second better than the world mark set by Warren Kealoha of Hawaii two years ago. One-fifth of a second isn’t much to go on. But, anyway. It was a great demons: -ation of Laufer’s remarkable skill in his specialty.

$150,000 Is a Lot of Money
Bu United Press NEW YORK, Aug. 20.—Paddy Mullins, manager of Harry Wills, thus far has failed to come forward with $150,000 to cover the money Jack Dempsey announced he had posted as a side bet for a bout with Harry Wills. Mullins charged Dempsey was bluffing and said "we'll post our money Immediately if Dempsey will sign to fight Harry Wills before Sept. 23," but as Dempsey has an appointment with Gene Tunney on Sept. 23, Mullins' words were viewed largely as a bit of “kidding." Many fans here were of the opinion that Dempsey's challenge would never be accepted. ON FIRE. BUT WINS Bu United Press PORT WASHINGTON, N. Y..
