HARBOR BOYS GET

ilGE LARGE SUNDAY LEI

(Special to Tub Times.) J

Indiana Harbor, June 1. Sunday afternoon the Hillside Athletic club base hall team came all the way from Englewood for the express purpose of handing the Indiana Harbor boys a nice large lemon. What is more to the point they accomplished their mission with neatness and dispatch. A young: left handed gentleman by the name of O'Connell was selected by the Hillside manager to create most of the trouble and he seemed to have a pretty clear .idea of just how to go about his task. He served up graceful benders of high and low degree to say nothing of the in and outers, but It was all the same thing, nothing doing In the safe hit line when hits were needed. However, Mr. O'Connell must not let the idea run away with him that he was the only disturbing factor that contributed to the locals discomfiture. A certain one Mcintosh who formed the other half of the Hillside battery sketch was equally tantalizing to the Indiana Harbor players. If a local n;an got on first and so much as strayed three feet from the sack he would peg the ball down there and usually caught his man napping. He also did some ground and lofty tumbling in his pursuit of fouls but always came up smiling with the ball in his hands.

A couple of other visitors who made themselves extremely unpopular in Harbor sporting circles was left fielder Bieler who caught everything that came within a hundred feet of him in any direction and center fielder Maybaum familiarly known among his pals as '-.Sandy." Sandy's long suit is hard swatting and his teammates say that in some of the towns they visit Sandy is required to sign a contract before the game whereby he agrees to pay for all balls he knocks so far

that they can't be found, and that these contracts are quite a drain on Tandy's exchequer. Ford who pitched for the locals was in poor form, being hit hard and often, besides being' afficted with a streak of generosity in the matter of passi's, fhat contributed largely to the size of the invaders run column. Another thing that may have cut some figure in the loss of the game was the absence therefrom of Manager Captain Sternberg. The boys have absolute confidence in the generalship and judgment of there captain, but he ias compelled to remain out of the eame on account of an injured kne which necessitated putting a substitute in his place. Association Umpire Brew of Chicago was all that a fair minded man could desire as an arbiter, and besides

that, he took a hard wallop on the left shoulder from a foul tip and never called for a doctor. Good man that. The crowd was large, the weather fine, the s-eore 2 to 1 in favor of Hillside and the lineup was as follows: Independent Athletics Brown c.f.; Johnson, 1st; Barney, s.s; Little, r.f.; Ford, p; Galvin, c; Peterson, 2nd; Riley 3rd; Krlckson. If. inillsde Athletics Bieler, l.f.; McFarland, 1st.; Hennezsy, s.s.; Maybaum, c.f.; Coogan, 2nd.; Wogan, r.f.; Zutteberg, 3rd.; Mcintosh, c; O'Connell, p.

HVIUH ENTERED JUST FOB FUN Gary Lad Takes Part in Exciting Track Meet at Whiting. (Special to The Times.)

Whiting, Ind., June 1. A most exciting event took place in Whiting yesterday, it being the track meet between the high school athletes and members of the Alumni association, who are at present In town, but unfortunately the meet had to be stopped when interest was at its highest, owing to the rain. In addition to the hlght school and alumni members, Charles Ilyman of the Gary high school, who Is known as a great pole vaulter, also took part, but his points did not count, he going In only for his own personal benefit, and made a fine showing.

The summary of events was as follows: 50-yard dash 1st, Charles Hyman; 2d Roy E. Green, (alumnus); 3rd, Walter Smith. Time, 6 seconds. 880-yard run 1st Harry Tlmm; 2nd,

In the pole vault, Hyman going 10 feet 2 inches, broke his previous record, it being higher than he made at the Itke County meet at Crown Point, on Saturday. One of the most unfortunate Incidents of the meet was the fact that Walter Smith sprained his ankle in the broad jump. The meet being brought to a sudden ending by the rain was another unfor

tunate feature. The high school received 45 points, and the alumni, 21

points. TiMllvtdnnl Points. Hyman. 22; Timm. 13; Green, 13.

A great event of commencement week will be the track meet on Thursday, June 17th. when the four classes of the

high school will battle for honors. The

one winning the most points will re

ceive a gold mf dal, the second largest number, a silver medal, and the third

largest, a bronze medal will be award

ed. Ribbons will also be awarded and

this event which will hereafter be an

annual affair is being looked forward

to with much anxiety.

The semi-annual report of the Gary Land coi-ioany is one nf the most en-rcuragir-bits of information that has been gfven to the people of Gary for

some time. It is stated In this report that private capital lias in the last six months invested In the first subdivision alone over $600. 000 for the construction of residences. Since tiie month of November there have been over 300 residences constructed in the first subdivision or at the rate of nearlj two a day. This maens that the people of Gary together with the outsiders who are interested in this city, have recognized the necessiy of building houses

This will make a magnificent location for the new building. The news of the donation of five more lots was brought to this city by T. M. C.

With the great amount of money expended for residences in Gary and the equally great amount invested In business blocks north of the Wabash tracks, it shows a confidence in the future of the city that is most encouraging. Every one of the residences constructed are now either occupied or are being held for tenants, or the owners live In them themselves. More are now being built every day and will be disposed of as soon as they are placed on the market for sale or rent. The construction of so many residences in Gary recently is due largely to the efforts of Captain H. S. Norton of the Gary Land company, who has never lost an opportunity to appeal to the people of G-iry and outsiders to invest their money in homes.

this being the first requisite in constructing a great and successful city.
