IS THE

ILL STARS

NEGRO REFUSES CONSENT

Hammond's baseball team, giving an

exhibition of a batting rally in the

fourth stanza yesterday, trimmed the Chicago All Stars in a spectacular

gome at the H. A. A. park by a count of 5 to 2. The locals scored all five

runs in the fourth inning when they bunched hits oft Bersing, the visitors' twlrler, and from that time on the game was sewed up so tight that the All Stars had no chance to get at it.

With the count standing 1 to 0

against them, the locals started an attack against the Chicago pitcher which

later proved disastrous. Bersing had pitched airtight ball up to this Inning and it looked as If he was going through the fourth without any damage being inflicted on him. Klopp, the first man up for the locals, filed out to short and McCay was given a base on balls. But Smith broke the hurler's

reparation into smithereens when he sent a screaming single Into right gar

den. But the most remarkable thing

resulting from the bingle was that McCay got all the way to third on the hit. Buhring, the next man up, pounded out a Texas leaguer and McCay and Smith

scored. Smith, the local first Backer,

was an easy out. The visitors seemed to be a bit nervous at this period of the game and when Cavanaugh grounded to short the latter fumbled and the runner was safe at first, Buhring coming home on the play. Rohde came to bat with a determined look on his face and lined a bingle toward right field. He could have walked and made the base. ' Cavanaugh sprinted to third on the bangle. Bersing pitched one ball to Plerson and the visitors' backstop In throwing the ball back to Bersing threw wild, Cavanaugh started home and made it when the shortstop threw a mile over the catcher's head. Rohde was given credit for stealing a run in this inning. The crafty little shortstop started for home while the pitcher was winding up. He would have been an easy out, but Plerson made It look better when he sent the pill to short and Rohde registered. The visitors' shortstop fumbled and Plerson was safe but was caught at second. The game was won after the finish of the fourth inning and the visitors were aware of the fact. As the locals played excellent ball behind their gallant southpaw hur'ler thereafter.- The visitors were given their second run in the fifth inning when the catcher muffed the ball trying to get McMillan at home. This last run was all they could get. The locals came close to scoring in both the fifth and seventh Innings, but their batters were unable to hit when a little bingle would have scored a man. Next Sunday the locals, will give the Gary team a chance at their reputation in the H. A. A. park, in the first meeting between the two teams this season, score: All Stars "Ward, 2b; Mackey, 8b; F.

Billy Delaney Formally Assumes Charge of Champion, Who Boxes in Public.

BY II. E. K. San Francisco, Cal., June 20. In order to get a foundation for his plea to, the state authorities to ease up a bit, Tex Rickard yesterday sounded the parties to 'the Jeffries-Johnson match on the advisability of reducing

the light from forty-five rounds as

called for in the articles of agreei ment, to twenty rounds, which heretofore has been recognized as the legal limit of sparring matches.

With this thought in mind, but

keeping It strictly to himself, he Jour

neyed out to Johnson's camp, accompanied by a carload of correspondents. He was closeted for half an hour with Johnson. Billy Delaney happened to

be there ahead of him and was wise to what was afoot and tipped It off to

Johnson to say "no" to any proposi

tion looking to a reduction of the number of rounds and to keep on saying It. Johnson took this stand as much In obedience to his own Judgment as to

that of Delaney.

Only Forlorn Hope Left. None but Rickard seemed to be

hanging to -the fringe of the forlorn hope that the governor would tolerate a meeting of Jeffries and Johnson in

any guise whatsoever. Everybody else was willing to dismiss the sub

ject of their even shaking hands in

this city. The possibility of Mr. Glllett's receding an inch, especially after being showered with congratulations from all over the country, and even from foreign countries, was put out .of the question.

The situation left not the smallest

straw for the desperate promoters and

the Interested political cabal to grasp at, but Rickard postponed his message

to the sporting public from hour to hour while listening to the siren voice of the local political wire pullers who

hated to see a good thing like this

get out of their reach, and who could

not understand In the face ot the in

telligent opinion of the community and

the newspapers why the governor

could not be reached or outgeneraled In some way. It was hard for these

local politicians to realize that Mayor McCarthy and tbe board of supervisors

were up against their limitations.

Mordecai Outpitches Four

Slabmen, Landing Onesided Contest, 10 to 3.

Cincinnati, June 10. Chance's cubs, coming champions of the National

league, showed a very large delega tion of rooters at League park yester

day afternoon why they are so far

ahead in the race. Playing agile and

brilliant baseball behind the clever and

brilliant baseball behind the clever

pitching of Mordecai Brown, they made the reds look flimsy in the defense and

extremely weak on the attack, winning, 10 to 3. Griff had to use four pitchers, and there was no improvement as change after change was

made.

SOX DRAG ATHLETICS

FROM LEAD IN WINDUP

Backed up by some sensational field

ing and a bit of well-timed hitting, "Big Ed" "Walsh yesterday scored bis

second victory over the Athletics on the South Side, 4 to 2. As a repeater the spit ball king is monarch of all

he surveys, for by pitching the sox to

their third cleanup Edward brought

the visitors clattering down from the lead for the second time in five days.

Thus endeth the eastern invasion.

Ed Plank, in days of yore a demon

obstacle for the white hose, was glv

en the trimming of his battle-scarred

career In the fourth and fifth sessions, giving way to Tommy . Atkins, ditto left-hander, in the sixth when the

home folks had the game salted and

iced away. Singularly, it was Plank who started against Walsh last Wednesday when Duftys star traveled

fourteen rounds, eventually tumbling

"Cy" Morgan, the rescuer, in a killing

that cost the visitors first place.

Favored by typical midsummer

weather, a crowd of 16,000 shirt-

wasted natives filed Into the yard for the final combat of the series. And

it was a scrap of high degree. Running catches of the circus type, such

as you read about but seldom see, con

tributed the thrillers, with Brown,

Oldrlng and J. Collins carving their

niches in the hall of fame.

WEST ENDS LICKED. The West End baseball team of West Hammond went down to defeat before the East Chicago aggregation, at the latter's grounds yesterday afternoon in a five-inning contest, by a count of 5 to 4. Although Mitchell outpitched his opponent in the five innings of play by holding his rivals to four hits, he was defeated by a margin of one run, which was due to the fact of some loose fielding on the part of his teammates. Manager Randall expects to be back on the West Hammond grounds next Sunday and the Foresters, who have reorganized, will be the nine that will oppose the West Ends. The Boilermakers have also reor

GARY VS. HAMMOND

The Gary team of the Indiana-Mlchl

gan league did not go to Llgonler as they expected yesterday, the game being called off last Saturday night. A

few days ago The Times printed a story that the Gary team had withdrawn from the league, and although the manager denied the story the following day It Is more than likely that

the story was true.

The team has not disbanded and will

complete the season in playing a num

ber of professional teams from the city. A game has been arranged with the Hammond Athletics next Sunday, to

be played at Hammond. f
