BASEBALL fans throughout the Cincinnati area and in eastern and southeastern Indiana are taking full advantage of the opportunity of casting ballots for their favorite Red and Cub players to start against

the Great Lakes navy nine at

Crosley field on June 30.

This exhibition contest between the Bluejackets and Red-Cub all stars will start in the twilight at 6:30 and will be followed by a 45-minute military exhibition by a contingent of soldiers from Ft. Knox, and then by a regular National league game between the

Reds and Cubs starting under the

now get their chance to act like

Stan Hack unanimously, because they know he is the best third

sacker in the National league.

Frank McCormick is getting their selection for first base With °

Minneapolis Protests Skelley’s Tying Run

The Indianapolis Indians and Minneapolis Millers are causing Victory field to shake with strife.

At least that was the situation in

Tribesters, 4 to 3. And the Millers played it out under protest that will have to be settled by George M. Trautman, American association | president, at league headquarters in

Columbus. The bitter rivals are scheduled |

for another round tonight in the second of the series and Chief i sett, former Miller, is slated to do!

to the scoreboard. The drive | like a sinker and cut in under] Wright's glove. | Johnny McCarthy lined a single to center, scoring English, and Joe Bestudik singled to right before Joe Moore's out retired the side with lone run.

Third Baseman Bill Barnacle wasn’t quite ready to receive the throw on the bag and Moore beat it, filling the bases.

CLEVELAND, June 23 (U. P.).— Promoter Larry Atkins’ bid to make Cleveland the country’s war-time boxing center gets underway tonight when Melio Bettina, swarthy Ttalian slugger from Beacon, N. Y, meets giant Harry Bobo of Pittsburgh in the feature match of a ‘card of four 10-round bouts. Atkins predicted a crowd of at least 25,000 would tum out for the outdoor card in the lakefront stadium. Profits of the show will go for purchase of a “bomber for General MacArthur.”
