Hill CALLED OFF
The ancient order of "Knockouts" Initiated a new member last night
when Michael Zimmer, sheriff of Cook county, celebrated his entrance into this pugilistic division by knocking out the fistic entertainment scheduled at
Chicago Heights in which the principals actors were to have been Danny
Goodman and Jack Roberts, local light weights.
The smash that kept the lights out
In the Bonath opera house at the south
ern suburb was delivered early in the
day, but local followers of the game didn't think the sheriff's office had a knockout punch up its sleeve This discovery came later when about 250 sports motored or railroaded it to Chi
cago Heights only to find that suburb
sleeping soundly from the effects of
the sheriffs thump.
A special train carried about 100
fans, while another hundred left in
automobiles.

New London, Conn., July 1. The i air was of more Interest to the many
Harvard varsity crew yesterday afternoon beat its Yale rivals from the first eighth of a mile to the finish and they
were so far ahead that a biplane cir
cling above had to make all sorts of additional twists to keep within view
ing distance of the finish and the
crowd on the observation trains and the river banks inquired: "Who's the
flyer?" rather than "Who won?"
For the first time in history a Yale
class has graduated without having seen in its collegiate career a winning blue varsity eight. Four times in succession Harvard made it yesterday.
when the crimson eight walked away with the varsity race by so many lengths that it would be foolish to attempt to count them.
The time was: Harvard, 22:44; Yale,
23:40V4. That meant about fifteen or sixteen lengths, or nearly a fifty of a mile difference. The crimson was never once in danger or under the necessity of working hard.
It was an odd sort of an affair yes
terday. It was not-so much a race of
oarsmeti as an exhibition of aeroplane driving aloft. The frail craft of the
thousands looking on than the frail craft of the water. The broad-shouldered, brown-tanned athletes of the boats lined up a little
below Gales Ferry at a few minutes after 5 o'clock. Yale was to the east
bank. Harvard to the west. The start
ing gun had scarcely sounded when a whir sounded overhead and a Wright
biplane buzzed into view.
The blue boat shot ahead, propelled by forty strokes a minute, and at the end of 100 yards had a lead of about half a length. Harvard, going at a 34
clip, was behind it, but apparently holding it steadily. Up above, S00
feet or so, the aeroplane easily dis
tanced both and wheeled around so as
to keep within sight of what was do
ing. All eyes were turned upward.
instead of outward toward the river.
Inside of a quarter of a mile it became apparent to everybody that the blue had no chance whatsoever; that
they were being rowed out of their
seats, and were going to be rowed farther out at every sroke they made.
Between the second and third mile
the airman took the entire attention
of the crowd.

Cleveland, O.. July 1. Ed Walsh
ground the helpless Naps into the dust
yesterday and got deep revenge for the things they-did to him on the pre
ceding day. The big Chicago twirler
was going at his best speed from first to last, letting" the struggling locals
down with four tiny singles, and won
his game without an. effort, the score
being 8 to 1.
Big Walsh hadn't pitched very long
before all the speed and daring the
Naps had shown in the three first
games had disappeared and they strug- I
gled like helpless school children be-'
fore the big fellow from then on. Ed had dandy support or the game would

New York, July 1. James J. Jef

by Mrs. Jeffries. He was in London during the coronation celebra
tion, but according to his wife took
no interest In the affair. "We had to stop at an obscure ho

in his room and slept." "Yes, and I had a good nactoo,' broke in the former champion.

cause a disastrous ending to Douts in ! Gary
So far Mayor Knotts has permitted
the Gary Athletic and the National Ath
letic clubs to stage their bouts without Interruption, but the former's bungle in the Wolgast-Mahoney match may cau a turn of affairs.
The ""sry Athletic Club'" members
claim the -rotectlon of the Mayor, al
though the do not stand in with the sheriff. With the. National the favor
of both is courted, but if things come to
showdown the Mayor will turn his
back on the National.
Tutuh Down , Chiefs Friends.
The end of the recent fiasco will not
be heard for some time. Those who attended had to contribute to a collec
tion to enable th bout to go on.
Chief of Police J. D. Martin is in HI
humor over the boxing situation. When
the chief and a couple of his friends went to witness the bout the management refused admittance to those who
accompanied the. chief. Local news

not admitted unless they purchased a

The recent Forbes-Fitsgerald "con
test" in the rirjg of the National Ath
letlc Club, the ne that has the Brown-
Thompson contest of Tuesday schedul
ed, may rise 5, a ghost to naunt ins promoters. The board of safety, which
yesterday set the stamp of its disap
proval upon the open air arena scheme of this club, is said to be undertaking, a quiet investigation Into the methods
of these promoters. Doattta of Pull.
The latter boast loudly of their "pull"
of a political character, but the leading city officials decline to admit there is any "pull" anywhere. Stories of contributions to campaign funds enter into
these stories told around the town by
the promoters and are exciting no little
discussion.
Then comes into the scheme another
factor. Promoters at both Hammond
and East Chicago, near by, are wondering why they should be stopped and
the Gary people permitted to run. The
Sheriff, it appears, has taken no hand
at all, leaving everything to the town
officials.
President Sax of the National Club declares that the Thompson-Brown battle was called off because of trouble between the rival contractors, the one
having been favored by the club offi
cials in the construction of their arena.
San Francisco, Cal., July 1. Owen
Moran exploded today that Is, ver
bally. - The little Englishman had become irritated over the way Ad Wol-
gast bad stzed him up and tossed him
aside, as it were, and he made up his mind to give Wolgast a Boland for an Oliver. "Wolgast, I suppose, thinks that because he is champion he is privileged
to say a lot of things, and he has enjoyed the privilege to the fullest extent. Down in his heart Ad knows that I can lick, him, and I think that half the time he is simply talking to keep up his courage. The only thing is. he talks too much and makes himself ridiculous. "Wolgast doesn't forget our last meeting, I'm sure. He would not stand tup and fight for even a fraction of a round, and Charley .White, the referee,
kept twitting him for being lacking In sand. Ask any onu who was at the ringside how many times White urged
him to quit running away and stop covering up." "Yes," chimed Manager Charley Harvey, "and I firmly believe he will take to covering up again Tuesday. He stands up bravely enough when he. is fighting dubs, but, mark my words, he will wrap his arms around his head when he faces Moran. I hope to goodness I am wrong in my prediction. If I am, I will be the first to admit that I misjudged the champion."

EVERS TO RETURN Oil SIDAYJOOLD JOB John J. Evers has nearly recovered from nervous prostration which attacked him early in the season and benched him for so long, and if nothing serious occurs he will be seen on the Initial sack In the Sunday game against Cincinnati. - - ,The exrmerchant, who says he would rather lose flOO than a ball game, feels that he cannot stand the strain of laying off any longer and during a conversation with Manager Chance over the lohg distance telephone yesterday said he was fit to get back into the game. He'obtained the P. L.'s sanction. ; .What change this will make 'in the lineup, is hard to say, for Doyle and Zimmerman are the only Cubs who now are In the .300' batters' class. One will have to be displaced to give John his regular berth, and it remains for the P. L. to use the pruning knife.

Frank Chance, the big bear of them all, threw doctor's advice to the winds and Jumped int the fray yesterday with marked effect. Not only did the Cubs put the air brakes on their slump, but they won the game from the Reds by the narrow margin of 3 to 2 in their old
fashioned way and it put them in a tie for second place, j Grabbing a lead of one lap in the
first round. Chance and his men hung I
on to it with grim determination until
luck brought them the opportunity to
strengthen their grip in the eighth Inning. A slight slip of the spikes while
the Reds were on the defense gave
vnance s men tne opening, and in a
flash they Improved It to the extent
of two runs before the enemy could
recover Its footing.
That slip proved the turning point of
the scrap, for in the last half of the
same round Griffith's gang jumped on
Mordecal Brown for two cleanly swatted tallies, which would have won the
game but for the break in the home
fences right ahead of them.
