\rißßlNl the DOPE By VEDDER (SARD

H-— **EZE CLARK, Rose Poly athletlo director, is back in u__J the city. He is the starter at the A. A. U. track meet held Friday and today In connection with the firemen's and policemen’s program for benefit of the pension funds. Things go along with a snap with Heze in charge. Clark lost out on one -of. his duties. He was Judge of walking. The boys prefer to run and there were no entries in the mile walk Friday. Mhybe, with so many policemen around, the athletes were afraid of being arrested for jay-walking. The Judge of that sort of business is found at the city prison. * * • Gertrude Kderle is due back in Now York on Aug. 31. A citizens’ committee is planning a big welcome. A lot of Gotham’s sheiks and sliebas should go flown to the pier and see what a real sure-enough girl looks like. • * * mOHN ROTHROCK won the shot-put In the A. A. U. track and field meet F’riday at the State fairground. There is nothing strange in that statement. If ho had NOT won. then it would have been worth headlines. John is the annual winner. Friday he just took off his coat, rolled up his shirt sleeves and unbuttoned the collar. Those who didn’t know John wondered who the dub was that didn't sport a.track suit or spiked shoes. They knew before it was over. Rothrock said after he had won, “I’m getting a little older oach year and I heave the shot a I ttle shorter distance each time, but I’m always a little better than the other fellow." We’re betting on John as long as he shows up—tr£ck suit or no track suit. * • • Roy James of the lltli Infantry, Ft. Benjamin Harrison, won tho five-mile run in the track meet at the fairground Friday. He looked as though he could run five miles more. An infantryman needs good legs. The race was on the half-mile track. As the entrants came around the second time ail official yelled “only eight laps more.’’ We’d have quit right then. * * * m4E University of Illinois is to install a loud speaker for use at football games, track meets and other large gatherings. The loud speaker will be worked with a radio-hookup, employing announcers, microphones, and sets of large horns, placed throughout the double-decked stadium. A man on the sidelines will give the game, play by play, into a phono on the end of a long cord, which has several plug-in stations up and down the field, enabling him to follow the ball at all times. Between halves it is planned to use the loud speaker In giving results of other games. • • • There doesn’t seem much use in going to all the trouble of Holding the International League pennant race every year. Baltimore always wins. It can’t be remembered any time since 1919 that the Orioles have been out of first place at this stage of the proceedings. • * • “3tepping on the gas” now has anew significance outside of sport slang. A poodle dog in Brooklyn walked onto a stove in the basement of a flat and turned on the gas. Thirteen persons, overcome by the fumes, were rescued by firemen. Our only hope is that the poodle met his fate. Never did like ’em. • • • SHE Izaak Walton, League Indiana division, has increased its membership from 3,800 to 20,000 since the first of January. State Senator L. G. Bradford of South Bend, who is a member of the national executive committee and president of the Indiana body, is one of the leaders in Waltonianism. Indianapolis is doing its share in the drive after a reorganization of the local branch. Fisherman and those interested in conservation of recources of the great outdoors have come to realize the importance of , organized effort.

Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Cincy in Great National Race. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Aug. 21—With Just a little more than a month to go, the American League pennant race Is practically decided. The New York i Yankees have a lead of nine and a 1 half games and they. could hardly lose if they tried. Managers don’t like to claim pennants until they have attained the mathematic'-1 certoinf>, but Miller Huggins, the pilot of the Yankees, admits that hjs club has a good chance to get into the world series. The way things look in the National League, Huggins may have a chance to play his team against another one of his teams, as the St. Louis Cardinals look like the winner. • The Philadelphia Athletics, which snapped, only recently out of a horrible slunjp. fell out of the tie with the Cleveland Indians for second place Friday when the Detroit Tigers took a double fall out of them and the double slapping removed any chance Mack's team might have had for the pennant. Almost 'ln’ The Yankees have feighty-four more games to play and if they win only half of them. Cleveland would have to win twenty-eight of their thirty-five remaining games to finish ahead of New Ybrk and the Athletics would have to win twentyeight out of their thirty-three remaining games to finish in first place. While the race unofficially Is over In the American League, the championship is -far from decided in the National League and it may be a battle to the very last day of the schedule. National Race The St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates are virtually in a tie for first place, as the Cardinals are only one-tenth of a point behind the 1925 champions. Even though the Pirates are entitled to a lot of respect, the betting here has switched over to the Cardinals and Hornsby’s team is now a slight favorite to win the pennant. Since the expose of Max Carey, Cars#n Blgbee and Babe Adams, the Pirate management cannot deny the stories of more than a year’s standing that there was dissension in the ranks and no team can win the pennant this year without working together.

TUNNEY SAW ACTION AT BELLEAU WOOD IN WAR Later, Present Title Challenger Won Light Heavy Crown of A. E. F. —Was Best Boxer Overseas. s

By Joe Williams (Copyright, 1926, NEA Service. Inc.) Over in France Gene Tunney wad a success both as a fighting soldier and a soldier fighter. He saw action at Belleau Wood, and. in the less tempestuous phases of the expedition, he saw action in the Paris prize rings and It won’t he long now until he gets a crack at Dempsey’s crown In Philadelphia. When the A. E. F. athletic carnival was arranged for Pershing stadium, Tunney was selected to represent his outfit in the light-heavy-weight division. This selection was not altogether pleasing to him. “I wasn’t yet sold on myself as a fighter with the gloves. ’’ Tunney admits. “I wasn’t particularly keen about going down there and getting messed around and making my outfit look bad.” Doesn’t Impress O’Dowd Tunney was turned over to Mike O’Dowd for training and handling. Mike was the 1 middleweight champion of the world at the time and was one of those hard-boiled, plugcut masticators who "ain't got no use for the swells nohow.” Well. Mike and Tunney didn’t get for mere than a day or so, and the two went their respective ways. Tunney proceeded to train and condition himself in the manner he thought best. Before the A. E. F. carnival proper got under way TunDUNDEE WINS Johnny Defeats Bretonnel Despite Broken Hand.

Robinson has been filling the offices of president and manager since the death of Charles Ebbetts two years ago and feels the strain Is too much for him.

This victory made Tunney, although weighing only 166 pounds, the outstanding favorite among the big fellows In the championsh'ps and there Is little doubt~that he would, have won the heavyweight honors bad he been permitted to fight in that division. He Whipped Jamieson But the regulations of the tournament restricted his activities to the llght-heavywelght division. Tunney had no trouble winning this title. His victim in the finals was Ted Jamieson. Meanwhile Martin went on to win the Army heavyweight title. Passing years have established Tunney as the best fighter developed in the service. The best by far. “One day after the armistice I bumped into 1 Billy Roche, the veteran referee,” relates Tunney. ”1 had Just finished scanning the want ada in thp New York Times and was getting ready to make my dally tour of offices and factories. 1 wanted a Job. I didn’t want to b a fighter. “Roache had been as a physical director and had seen me fight. ‘Your Just the guy I'm looking for,’ chirped Billy. ‘l’ve got a fight for you and there's 100 berries In it.’ ”
