PUAYING the Field With Billy Evans —* ■ EORGE Sisler has a penchant Gfor breaking records held by Ty Cobb. ±sack in 1911, the Georgia Peach socked the ball to the extent of .420 to lead the American League in batting. Eleven years later Sisler equaled the performance. Another record of which Cob was very proud, was that of having

batted safely one or more times in forty consecutive games. The same year, 1922, that Sisler tied Cobb’s mark of .420, the best batting average ever made in the American League, he also surpassed Ty ’ s consecutive hi t - ting feat. Starting July 27, Sisler went on a

Evans

hitting spree that didn’t end until he had batted safely one of more times in forty-one consecutive games, bettering Cobb’s record by one game, but falling three short of Willie Keeler’s forty-four games made in 1897, which has stood for thirty years against the onslaughts of the game’s greatest batsmen. It was in 1911 that Cobb, with 248 base hits, set anew high water mark for getting the ball safe. During the season of 1920 the record was twice broken, Rogers Hornsby of the National League getting 250, while George Sisler went into the lead with 257. However, Cobb still holds plenty more remarkable batting records for Sisler to shoot at and a majority of them will remain unscathed. FAILED AT THIS ONE f ■“] NLY recently Sisler threatened f J a batting feat of which Tris I Speaker is justly proud, the making of eleven consecutive base hits. Speaker made his record during the season of 1920, noted for unusual batting feats. It included ten singles, two of them bunts, and one double. Sisler’s attack on Speaker's consecutive batting record was broken after he had made eight in a row. Unlike Speaker, Sisler scattered a number of extra base hits into the effort, making a home run, a triple, three doubles and the same number of singles before he was stopped. Charley Ruffing of the Boston Red Sox was the pitcher to end Sisler’s base bit rampage. He made him ground out to First Baseman Todt in his ninth attempt.

Tribe Plays in Columbus on Saturday Bruno’s Boys Bump Blues in K. C. Finale—Swetonic Pitches. Bu United Press KANSAS CITY, Mo„ July 22. The Indians closed their second visit of the season to Kansas City by knocking off the Blues, 10 to 5, Thursday, but the Cowboys annexed the series, three games to two. Bruno Betzel's pastimers were en route to Columbus today for a fourday stand opening Saturday. A series in Toledo will follow hostilities in Columbus, the Indians not being due home until July 30. Rookie Goes Route Stephen Swetonic, young righthander, went the full route on the Tribe mound Thursday and did a good job of checking Eddie Zwilling’s hopefuls. He allowed only two runs until the ninth, when a belated K. C. rally produced three markers. The Indians staged a wild rally in the third stanza to sew up the contest. They got eight runs in that “bat” session on six hits and three Blue miscues. Three doubles were included in the half dozen safeties poled by the Betzelites. Three K. C. Hurlers Kansas City used three twirlers, Roy, Warmouth and Olsen, and some pinch hitters, but it seemed as though the Hoosiers were determined to win regardless of who opposed them. The Tribe did some fine battting in the series that closed Thursday, and if their pitchers tighten they will stand a splendid chance of climbing out of the second division. 15 Dubuque Wins Are Thrown Out Bu United Press CEDAR RAPIDS. lowa, July 22.

Sidelight Jottings of Big Fistic Event

Bv t s'Ofd Press NEW iTORK, July 22.—510 w motion pictures of the DempseySharkey fight, exhibited privately to newspaper men and others today, left the issue of whether Dempsey fouled Sharkey as wide open to dispute as ever. The fifty persons who saw the first running of the picture were sharply divided in their opinions, as sharply as were those at the ringside. Thursday night. The pictures were run through first at normal speed and then at slow speed. During the first six rounds it did not sqpm to the United Press correspondent that Dempsey was striking low, as has been claimed by some at the ringside. He was, however pounding away at Sharkey’s middle, drumming a steady tattoo against his stomach and ribs. In the seventh round, the first of the disputed blows was shown fairly clear. Sharkey was facing the camera and he and Dempsey came together, swapping punches. It seemed Dempsey reached out with his left and drove it into Sharkey's groin. A few seconds later they came together again 'and almost exactly the same thing happened. Snarkey’s hands' were at his sides. When he was hit, he looked up plainly in pretest. His face, however, did not show pain. Then, almost instantly, came the left to the jaw whicir floored him. Tex Rickard denied today Dempsey had fouled Sharkey, and did a little ballyhooing for the DempseyTunncy fight which he said would be held in mid-September “at a place not yet determined.” “I was right at the ringside.

Hennessey Meets Japanese Star Bu United Press DETROIT. July 22.—The familiar figures of William T. Tilden and Wallace Johnson, veteran campaigners of the American tennis courts, were to be seen in the semi-final rounds of the 1927 clay court championships today. Tilden advnaced to the sem-flnals through a 6-1, 6-0, 6-4 trimming he gave Ryuki Miki, Japanese Davis cup player. The American ace had little difficulty. Johnson eliminated Charles Leslie, Montreal—last of the Canadian players—6-2, 6-3, 6-1. Today Tilden will face Luke William*, Chicago, and former Yale tennis star, in the semi-final round.

was watching every minute and would have seen a foul blow if one had been struck in the seventh round. No, Dempsey hit Sharkey in the pit of the stomach—right In the pit of the stomach. Sharkey took two blows to the head before he fell. A man would have dropped quicker than that if he had been hit low. He didn’t act like a man who had been hit low. "Where Sharkey failed was in not coming right into the fight and mixing it with Dempsey. He waited too long. He did not fight fast enough. 1 ' Jack O'Sullivan, the referee, said: "The blow which preceded the knockout punch, a left to the jaw, was a fairly delivered one. It was a right uppercut that landed on the waistline, but not below. It Is true Dempsey landed several times below the waistline in previous rounds, but in no case were the punches'injurious or deliberate, nor was there any protest made by Sharkey previous to the final round.” HOLLYWOOD. Cal.. July 22 —Estelle Taylor Dempsey wants her husband, Jack Dempsey, to whip Gene Tunncy and retire with the world's heavyweight championship belt in his possession.
