PAGKEY-WALGAST GO NOT CLINCHED YET, SAYS TOM JONES

"The Wolgast-McFarland fight is not on yet." Tom Jones, the champ's manager, came into town from Cadillac, Mich., yesterday afternoon and made the above surprising statement Just when the fans were sitting patiently back and waiting for the night of Sept. 13 and the big fight. It will be noticed, however, that Jones did not say "the Wolgast-McFarland fight is off." The truth of the matter is that the match is not definitely 'on, but that it probably will reach that stage of the proceedings this afternoon. Jones, who has spent two days conferring with "Wolgast at the latter's Michigan farm, is to meet Frank Mulkern, the Milwaukee promoter, tn the beer city today. The meeting is all important, as when it is concluded the match will be either on or oft for good. There are some arrangements, necessary in a mate hof this magnitude, according to Jones, which were overlooked when Wolgast signed the articles

for Mulkern. These must be settled to the satisfaction of Jones or he says he will prevent the bout. Just what the nature of these arrangements are Jones refused to state, but it is known they concern the ability of the club to stage the match and the posting of further forfeits. Jones anticipates no trouble in coming to an agreement with Mulkern, but avers that if his terms are not met there will be no fight. "Wolgast has put the entire affair In my hands," said Jones. "If I say so he will lose his $1,000 forfeit and let me call off the match. I do not expect to have to do this, however. "Everything will be settled by tonight, I hope. The match looks like a big card and ought" to draw a lot of money."

O'TOOLE FANS 15; ALLOWS 4 HITS St Paul. Minn., July 31. St Paul won its third straight game from Columbus, 8 to 3, yesterday, because O'Toole, the J22.500 beauty, was in fine form. He struck out fifteec of the Co

lumbus batters and allowed only four hits, three of which were made in the ninth Inning. The last time out

O'Toole struck out fourteen Indiana

polis players and was beaten. Once before this year he fanned eighteen in a game. In his last twelve games he has struck out 134 men. Now is he

worth $22,500?

NORTHERN INDIANA LEAGUE

MITCHELL QUITS TEAM AFTER GAME

Hammond drained the dregs of the cup of defeat yesterday when East Chicago administered a dose in which the compounds were 10 to 0. The victory of the East Chlcagoans at the H. A. A. park was not only decisive, but it sent the "sick man" of the league to the bottom of the ladder. Five hundred fans always loyal and sympathetic attended the obsequies. They were still charitable this morning and excused the defeat on the grounds that the local players had an off day, such as must come to all players. The mantle of charity was. however, not wrapped so closely around Mitchell, the H. A. A. pitcher, for it became known that on the preceding day he had sold his twirling wing to Aurora, and the result was that he came to Hammond yesterday in no shape to pitch. Mitchell resigned from the team last night, and there were no regrets. He is said to be signed up with Aurora. Hammond was unusually weak yesterday, while East Chicago played In

championship form, and these two conditions could result in but one outcome a decisive victory for the visi

tors.

Aided and abetted by the magnificent pitching of one Novak of Gary and the palpable and decidedly rotten decision of Field Umpire Clapper the steel city aggregation succeeded in bagging the first game of the double header here yesterday by a score of 1 to 0. Without the adverse decision of Clapper, who called a Gary player safe at third when even the Gary contingent themselves said he was out, the game would have probably been playing yet, for both teams were well night invinciblV Clapper's decision, however, was responsible for the player scoring on the next play and ended the run getting on both sides. Novak did not have anything 00 Smith f.t the pitching stunt and each man only allowed four hits, two of each being of a very skinny variety. The first game was nearly featureless, being a pitchers' battle from start to finish. Nearly 600 people lined up to see the two games and all were loud in their denunciation of the decision of Clapper in the sixth Inning. FIRST GAME. GARY.

Three straight victories for the ambitious White Sox over the Yankees have put the Chicago athletes in high spirits once more, besides moving them back into third place in the American league race, and for that reason the boys enjoyed their day's rest and recreation yesterday with added enthusiasm. The only thing to mar tho pleasure of beating the locals three times was the row between Capt. Lord and Umpire Mullen which occurred In the ninth inning of the second game yesterday and caused the ousting of the Sox captain. Asuspension is expected to follow the incident, and Capt. Lord is in a repentant mood today and says he knows he made a mistake, but In the excitement of the moment lewt control of himself. No word has been received yet from President Johnson, but none is expected before today.

DEFEAT GARY TEAM (Special to The Times.) Griffith, Ind., July 31. The Griffith Stars yesterday defeated the Gary Electricians here by a score of 8 to 7, the two teams having played a game in championship form. Because of the close score from the first inning until the bats were gathered up for the ninth the interest was intense, and the Stars feel themselves entitled to much

credit for defeating so able a team as the visitors. Their next game should bring out a large attendance of Griffith fans. May pitched seven Innings for the visitors and Schutz two. The Stars took thirteen hits off May, but he allowed no bases on balls. Schutz gave one" base on balls, but allowed no hits. Adams worked for the Electricians behind the bat. Walters and Bareman were the Griffith battery. W'alters allowed five hits and three bases on balls. Walters got six stolen bases and Bareman three. Griffith made two double plays, and the

Brooklyn at Cincinnati. Magnificent defensive work on both sides gave the appearance of a pitchers' battle to yesterday's scrap between the Cubs and Phillies, which ended In another triumph for the leaderless Daisies 2 to 1, and cut more props out from under the league leadera. - The pitching Itself was nothing to brag about. In fact, It was only medicre, with the accent on the last syllable, but the support given the slabmen was somthing to talk about in spite of the fact a lone error lost the game. Lewis Richie and Earl Moore hooked up at the outset. Lurid Lew was unsteady In spots and kept himself in hole to the batsmen. He issued four passes and permitted eleven hits, but so tight was he in the pinches and so good was his backing that the Phillies had a helva time getting two runs out of all the men they had on bases. Moore was a lot more generous than his opponent. His earlship gave six bases on balls, but made up for that by his miserly attitude regarding swats. Only four were made off him In seven innings, after which he was withdrawn to let a sub striker bat for him. and Alexander the Great came on in time to sit In the floral horseshoe.

got five hits and four runs. The team was in dire straits from the third inning on, Manager Thompson's arm giving away and he was compelled to quit the game. Rippe, the star fielder, received a deep cut in the ankle by be

ing spiked, and Klndel had his foot spiked. Frlske was then put in the box to hold the Hessvllle Colts down. The batteries for the Hessvllle Colts were Hess and Losher; Kindels, Klndel, Frlske and Tague.

KINDEL COLTS WIN

AGAIN

(Special to The Times.) The Kindel Colts played Hessvllle yesterday at Klndel's grove and got another scalp added to the long string of victories which they have won this season. The score was 9 to 5 until the ninth inning, when the Kindels clouted a shower of hits and ran in five runs in the ninth, winning 10 to 9. The feature of the game was Harry Tague's batting. Harry was at bat five times.
