GAME AT W. HAMMOND. An eighth-Inning rally, in which the Zimmerman Colts scored three runs, caused the downfall of .. the Kindel Colts at the West Hammond grounds Sunday afternoon by a score of 6 to 3. Score: i , Kindel Colts 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 3 Zimmermana 20001003 6 SMUGGLES Hammond's classy bunch of ball payers grabbed two games on Sunday and Monday by outhitting both their opponents and, together with superior pitching of their two hurlers, made it four victories out of five games played this season. The Orlons went, down to defeat before the locals on Sunday by a count of 9 to 3. The visitors played like a bunch of amateurs. If the semi-pro teams of Chicago are not any better than the aggregation who travel under the name of the Orions, it is time that the local boys should join the major league. Pollard pitched an excellent game against the Orions, yielding but three hits. A Bunch of Fakera. A fake report was given the RecordHerald by one of the Orion players, and instead of giving the local pitcher credit for pitching a three-hit game, they padded the box score and credited themselves with eight hits. If that is the only way the Orions play ball and expect to make a reputation by putting unreliable reports In the Chicago papers so as to keep in line with the rest of the semi-pro teams, it is poor Judgment on the part of their manager. At any rate, the Orions will never get another game with the local boys and it is -not probable that any of the Chicago teams would' care to schedule games with such a bunch of fakers, ntsr Crowd Attends Game. A large crowd gathered at the Hammond Athletic association park to witness the locals whip the colored bunch to the tur.e of 8 to 2 on. Decoration day. The weather was cold, but the loyal fans turned out to the game just the same. It takes more than cold weather YACHISiE Chicago yachtsmen celebrated the formal opening of the sailing season yesterday, two of the clubs with racing events and all of them observing open house for the day. The Chicago Tacht club marked its season's start with a dinner and reception. The Columbia sailed a free-for-all ten-mile regatta, largely in the way of a tryout for its racers, with George Tramel's Vaneedor carrying off the honors. The Jackson Park club held its annual opening vruise to Indiana Harbor and return. Chloris, Herman Jacobs' swift twenty-one footer, won the Jackson Park regatta, finishing In 2:11:39, with the Illinois, Roy Barcal's thirty-five footer, second in 2:12:52 and A. A. Bennett Jr.'s Susan II. third in 2:18:24. The victory in the opening event earned Chloris the second leg on the East Chicago Land association cup. M'FARLAND SAYS HE WAS ROBBED. BY PACKET MTARLAXD. London, May 31. If I ever won a fi?rht, I won this one. I never thoug-ht that in a club representing England's best sporting element I'd be the victim of such a robbery. I have beaten Welsh three times now, yet I have only one victory to my credit. The only consolation I have is that all the members of the club assert that the decision was a rotten robbery. London, May 31. Packey McFarland of Chicago last night convinced every one inside the National Sporting club save Referee Scott that he had defeated Freddy Welch in their twenty round battle for the lightweight boxing championship of Great Britain. The American fighter had carried the battle to his British opponent throughout the hour of fighting, and the referee's verdict of a draw caused a demonstration unparalleled in the annals of the exclusive club, which ha long prided itself on being arsponsor of fair play and everything that is sportsmanlike. The official was hissed and hooted out of the ring, and even threats of personal violence were made by the enraged spectators, who forgot everything save their love of fair play. Even those who had wagered large sums on the British champion Joined in the demonstration, which bordered closely on a riot. Some of the most

COP DOUBLE-HEADER. The Hammond Grays won a doubleheader from the Kamradt Colt3 -of West Hammond. On Sunday the Grays defeated the Colts at the North Side grounds by a score of 10 to 9, and won out on the West Hammond grounds on Decoration day by a score of 19 to 5. SY BUNCH UP Ti to keep them away. The bleachers were filled and before the gong sounded for the locals to take their place in the field a number of spectators who came late were forced to find seats on mother earth. The teams failed to get started at the regular time and fifteen minutes were wasted. Walker Pitches Brilliant Ball. "Duke" Walker, Hammond's little pitcher, was given a Chance to show his ability against the Royal Giants in his first game of the season, and besides holding his opponents to four scattered hits, he whiffed nine of the visitors and started a rally with hi3 neat single in the fifth inning, which put ginger into the locals, and before that fifth stanza ended three men had stamped a mark on the rubber. Many Channs Wasted. In the first part of the game Hammond wasted many chances which should have resulted in runs. Rohde and Fowler were both caught on third in the early part of the game. Rohde was caught while taking an afternoon snooze in the first inning, with none out, while perched near third sack. Fowler was on the same base later In the game and was caught. He didn't even try to get back to the sack when the pitcher threw to third, thinking that the hurler had made a balk, but the umpire couldn't see the joke, and the local's first sacker after making a speech to both the umpire and pitcher, went back to the bench a much wiser man. After the fifth inning rally the locals hit the visiting pitcher hard. The locals made a monkey out of the pitcher after that stanza and sent the horsehide to every part of the diamond.

An Important step was taken at the business meeting of the Lake County High School Athletic association in Crown Point last Saturday, when it was decided to disband the association and consolidate it with the Lake County Oratorical association and the Lake County Debating league, for the purpose of simplifying matters. No name has been selected for the organization which will control these high1 school actlTit1s, !but It has ben suggested that it be called the Lake County High School Board of Control. "As soon as the Lake County Oratorical association and the Lake County Debating league can hold meetings they, too, will disband. In the meantime a committee consisting of Principal F. Da McElroy of the Hammond schools as i chairman, Edward Sargeant of Gary, and W. R. Curtis of Crown Point, has been appointed to draft a constitution and bylaws for the new board of control. One Set of Officers. The effect of this plan will be to greatly simplify the management of the various branches of school activi ties. The actual organization ot the new board of control will not take place until the committee on constitution and bylaws has reported. '. Hereafter it will be necessary to elect only one set of , officers and one board of directors, and any matters pertaining to athletics, oratory or de bating will be taken up with the new board. The attendance at the meet In Crown Point last Saturday was very poor, In spite of the fact that the day was fine and it was known that the meet was to be closely contested. On account of the apparent lack of interest. It is expected tht an effort will be made by the Hammond high scTiool students to have the meet pulled off In Hammond next year. Hammond Acrennlhle. The accessibility of Hammond from all parts of the county will make it the ideal place to hold the contests, and it Is expected that four or five thousand people would be attracted to the meet were it to be held in Hammond. The events which attracted the great, est attention were the pole vault, in which Wicks of Gary broke the record held by Hyman of Gary; the 100-yard dash in which Watson of Hobart lowered the Lake county record, held by Blair of Hammond, from 10 2-5 seconds to 10 seconds fiat. There was only one watch held on this race and so the record will not be allowed to stand. Walter Kennedy of Hammond won the gold medal for the largest individual score. The relay race was also won by Hammond in fine form. In fact, the Hammond boys were delighted by the unexpected showing of strength that was made. There was a great deal of favorable comment on the mile race that Gavlt of Hammond won. Gavit Runs Great Mile. He had timed himself so that he knew exactly how fast he would have to go to win the contest. The other members of the team thought he would not be able to stand the pace and so they let him take the lead. After the three-quarter post was passed thy sprinted after him and caught up with him, but at this Juncture, Gavit, with more reserve energy than he had beengiven credit for, started to sprint him self and won the race easily. Those who attended the meet at Crown Point enjoyed themselves Immensely, but the fact that Crown Point is so inaccessible made the crowd much smaller than it would have been under ordinary circumstances. This detraAed somewhat from the excitement of the meet. , THE I"TERKSTI"G TIMES' AD AI WATS DESOTES THE INTERESTING STORE.

The entire valve mechanism is enclosed so there is NO CHANCE FOR DIRT OR GRIT TO WORK THEIR WAY INTO THE BEARING SURFACES. The valve springs may be reached by taking off two thumb screws. The valves themselves are removed by merely unscrewing the plugs located above the valve chambers." This description exactly fits the LAMBERT engine.
