SHERE was one notable happening gt the State fairgrqund during the two days’ program for the benefit of ttje firemen’s and policemen's pension funds. But it is doubtful if many of the people knew anything about it. In the center of the infield of the mile track about 4 p. m. on Saturday a young man vras hoisting himself over a stick placed between two uprights. “That’s up in the air," one of the spectators was heard to remark, and then turned away to gaze at a bunch of clowns in a ramshackle Ford. Yes. it was up in the air. The slim young man was Paul Harrington of Notre Dame, an Indianapolis resident, going higher than he ever went before —which is up in the air. The take off was rough and conditions far from ideal but when measurements were taken the bar was found to be 13 feet, inches from the ground. The measurement was not very accurate as no record was at stake, but, anyway, the stick was over the thirteen-foot mark. If it more than thirteen feet one Pnch it was higher than Harrington ever went before. There are very few athletes that can put the bar at thirteen feet and clear it. On the standards the measurement said thirteen feet, six inches. Everyone was getting a bit excited. But after allowances were made for the sag in the bar, unevenness of tlie ground, etc., the actual height was cut down considerably. Paul tried to clear the bar with the standard at thirteen feet, nine inches, but failed. The little exhibition showed that Harrington has not yet reached his limit. He is going higher and higher. Undoubtedly he U one of the nation’s best pole vaulters. * * * This sounds . more reasonable, tarry Marks, Indiana University football captain of 1925, has signed with an Akron (Ohio) grid team for SIOO a game and expenses. With a little more publicity Larry might have add ed another hundred on the contract. * * • Johnny Dlthmer of Purdue, a local youth, is versatile In the water. He Is supposed to be a dash star, excelling in the shorter races. But just to prove his class he went to St. Louis and took second place In, the ten-mile Mississippi River swim. / * • • Anyway you look at it that Flowers Rosenbloom bout should he a colorful affair. The caulih flowers probably will spoil the " pretty picture, however. * * • O.HERE is no better little fighter around this city than Royal Cox. He is smart and he is cool—and he can battle. He demonstrated that against Joe Elerene of Louisville last Saturday at the Coliseum. Cox made many friends by his showing against the tough customer from Kentucky. Royal in a number of fights has failed to lead to any great extent. It Is a method used by a number of the masters of ringcraft, but the fans don’t like it. But at the Coliseum Elerene waded in and Royal did likewise. He showed he could "take ’em" as well as sock. Cox’s left Is a jab of lightning. No matter what anybody else thinks, we like Royal. * * * Chuck Wiggins should get rid of some of that fat around his waistline. That’s the very FIRST tiling he should do. * * * A number of Indianapolis trapshooters made the trip to Vandalla, Ohio, to the Grand American Handicap. It is the world's series of trapshooting. This week's program is the twenty-sixth annual affair. More than $3,000 is up in prizes. Among those entering from here: Lewis, Young, Ensminger, Wiggam. Collins, Holloday, Watson. Wendling, Dougan and Havens.

Fight Show Results

Saturday Night, Coliseum As is often th© case the preliminary bouts were the best at the Coliseum fight show on Saturday night. The Royal Cox-Joe Elerene battle was a real scrap with both boye after each other hammer and tongs. Cecil Payne of Louisville also showed a willingness to mix it up against. Allen Watson. * Chuck Wiggins was too strong for Orlando Reverheri and Pal Moore threw gloves all over Mickey Satnick, especially on top of his head. The show was well attended. Results: Chuck Wiggins defeated Orlando Reverberl in ten rounds Pal Moore defeated Mickey Satinick In ten rounds. Roval Cox defeated Joe Elerene In six rounds. Cecil Payne defeated Allen Watson In six rounds Jack McCullough defeated Charlie Shine in four rounds. RICHARDS, HUNTER WIN Make Clean Sweep for East in Tennis Matches.

ELIZABETH DUNN, STATE CHAMPION, IN WESTERN GOLF MEET

WOMEN’S TITLE AT STAKE Miss Ryan and Mrs. Mallory Meet for National Tennis Championship. Bu United Pm* . „ „ FOREST HILLS. N. Y., Aug. 23, —Miss Elizabeth Ryan, for years a tennis player without a country and one of the greatest titleless players In the world, got her first real chance for national glory at the West Side Tennis Club this afternoon when she met Mrs. Molla Mallory in the final round for the women’s tennis championship. Miss Ryan for ten years, in England and France, had to obscure herself behind the glamour of Mile. Suzanne Lenglen and be content with a share of the French girl’s game in doubles competition. She could beat any other player in Europe and most of the players In this country, but she couldn’t beat Mile. Lenglen and she had to play the French star in all the important tournaments. Two years ago Miss Ryan returned to) the United States and found herself without a tennis nationality. The American teams wouldn't play her as an American against the British teams and the Englisff teams ruled that she was not English. This year she was accepted by the United States Lawn Tennis Association, however, and was sent to England with the Wigh'man cup team. She played brilliantly on the other side and defeated Miss Helen Wills, former national champiop, in the first important tournament in this country. Glory holds little for Mrs. Mallory. She has been the American champion six times and has been a finalist nine times. Her return to form this season, with the possibility of another title, has been one of the most interesting features of the season.

On the Tribe Trail

Bu United Press ST. PAUL. Minn., Aug. 23. Ownle Bush's Indians won three games over the week-end, taking the finale at Minneapolis Saturday. 3 to 1, and the double-header with the Saints here Sunday, 6 to 4 and 7to 6. The Bushmen made a slight gain in the race and this morning were five games back of the leagueleading Brewers and three and onehalf games behind the second-place Colonels. The over-worked Tribe pitching staff was put to the acid test in the twin bill here Sunday, but managed to escape in two close battles. Carmen Hill was relieved by Speece In the ninth inning of the first tilt, hut got credit for the victory. It was Hill's twenty-first “win" of the season and he has only five defeats against him. Jack Winner relieved Faeth in the Sunday wind-up and nosed out with the honors. The Saints almost won this fray on account of the 6 o'clock closing law and their ability to stall for time without arousing the wrath of the umpires. Time nearly was up when Wade batted in the ninth, and with two strikes nnd three balls on him, he sent a difficult chance to right center, which Wid Matthews captured to end the game. If Wade had walked or had reached first base in any other manner the Sunday olos ing law would have called a halt to hostilities and the score would have reverted to the eighth, in which case St. Paul would have won, 6 to 5. Dutch Henry hurled the Saturday fray at Minneapolis and struck out nine Millers. It was his second victory during the Minneapolis series and the second time in that round of games that he fanned nine men. < Byron Speece turned in a brilliant Job of relief pitching the first encounter Sunday. Hill went to pieces and the Saints had pulled the score up to two of tying and had a man on second with one out Svhen Manager Bush changed twirlers. Speece struck out both Cullop and Stuvengen to end the game Cullnp and Stuvengen are two of the best clubbers with the Saints, but Byron had them dazzled. Matthews collected four hits—one a double—in five trips in the first fracas Sunday. Captpin Sicking of *the Indians has been playing airtight ball since he was moved back to second base, his regular berth. The Indians are scheduled in St. Paul through Thursday. Friday Is an off day. and on Saturday they open a series in Louisville. In the third of the series with the Saints this afternoon Bill Burwell was figured to take the Tribe mound. Ideal weather prevailed in St. Paul this morning. Burning heat prevailed Sunday and the athletes were low in "pep” during the second game. The Indians played double headers In Minneapolis Wednesday and Friday, 'a single game Saturday and that twin hill here Sunday was a heavy load for the Hooslers to attack. GUN CLUB RESULTS George E. Wendling of North Salem. Ind., was wiriner of the singles event at the weekly trapshoot of the Indianapolis Gun Club Saturday with 98 out of 100 targets. Wend-, ling also was high in the handicap with twenty-five straight from twen-ty-one yards. Slinkard won the doubles with twenty-three out of twelve pairs. FLOWERS VS.

PLAYERS STIRRED BY CASE

Protective Association May Result From Carey and Frisch Troubles. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Statt Correspondent NEYV YORK, Aug. 23.—Talk among the major league baseball players about some kind of protective organization or union probably will be revived this winter because of the recent experience of Max Carey and Frank Frisch. Carey, rated as one of the most valuable players in the game ast season, lost his job with the Pittsburgh Pirates and was released away from a cut of the world’s series money with a transfer to the Brooklyn Club. Frisch, in open rebellion against the managerial tactics of John MeGraw, was hack at his home here today debating what move he could make next. He left the Giants in St. Louis without warning and probably will lost pay and his Job. The former captain of the Giants said today that he wasn't certain what he coqld do and that he was going to stay around home for a while. He said he was in had physical shape and needed a rest. In the opinion of ball players and fans, who are familiar with the contracts that players have to sign, there is nothing that Frisch can do. He made the first move and lie will have to make the next and it's tough moving any way against McGraw. Frisch refused to give any reasons for jumping the club in St. Louis, but it was learned from other sources that McGraw has been riding him so hard he couldn't stand it any longer, and took a way out that he figured might force McGraw to trade or sell him to some other club. It has been no secret that the Giant manager has been riding the players all season and especially so since It became almost obvious that the team cannot win the pennant this year. McGraw was reported so have said that he gave Frisch permission to negotiate with the Brooklyn club last spring or with any other club that would be willing to assume a contract that Is said to call for $lB,000 a year. Frisch denied that he had talked with Brooklyn.
