East Las Vegas, N. M., June 13. i
Jack Curley is now assistant chief of
police at East Las Vegas and wearer
of a huge alleged gold star. Not that
this peaceful village needs the services of Jack, (but In some way peculiar to
the promoter of the big go the village
has acquired him on its bluecoat staff. Heretofore the chief had a monopoly of the policing around here, but now he has to share it with Ourley. Perhaps Curley wants to arrest Johnson for speeding. Jim Flynn Is becoming quite an attraction, although his efforts do not keep the crowd in as good humor as the charred chomp, with his comedy, does at his camp. Flynn is working hard and is taking his routine with such a serious attitude that a few minutes Is enough for the onlookers. At the Johnson camp the villagers and visitors find never-ending amusement. The negro has a new antic patented every minutes. The portable arena arrived from Kansas City yesterday and was promptly hauled to the site of the big flght. The seating capacity Is 17,150 and the spectators In the last row of seats will be but eight-seven feet from the ring.
Flynn's workout lasted one hour and
ten minutes. He boxed nine rounds
Tommy Ryan came first. They boxed
three rounds and the fireman was al
ways the aggressor. Flynn then spar
red two rounds each with Ray Marshall
and Al Williams. Williams Is the biggest man in Flynn's camp. This afternoon Flynn almost stopped him In
the first round and Williams would have hit the canvass if the Pueblo man
had not caught him and held him up,
Howard Morrow got two rounds for the
windup.
Johnson, thoush limiting his boxing to six rounds, three with Marty Cutler
and three with Calvin Respess, was busy on his outdoor platform for a full hour. The last - round of each set-to ran five minutes. Johnson punched the
bag fourteen minutes, shadow boxed
for five minutes and tossed the medi
cine ball for eight minutes.

this morning. He Is a proficient "rub ber."
Treasurer Mark Lewis had another busy day. The biggest order for tick

SOX BUMP YANKS IN WILDJAME, 11-2 Six Runs in First Round Enough to Get an Even Break on Series.
WHY?
Do you Mr, Business Mary ad vertise when your store is crowded and not when Business is dull? Isn't it the best time to eat when you are hungry? Bring the people into your store when it is dull.
That's TMe Time to Advertise - Think if Over.
One galuTn-ptlo-us galaxy of glad goings on, including a world's record breaking freak miscue by New York, enabled the White Sox to sew up the final game of the Yankee series with six cheap runs In the first Inning yesterday. More goings on later in the day made the final count 11 to 2 and an even break on the four with the Gothamltes. By grabibng the combat so early In the day the Sox enabled Manager Callahan to practice the conservation of en
ergy by withdrawing Ed Walsh after three Innings so as to save up the rest
of the Big Reel for the coming contest for first place with Boston's Red Sox. George Lefty Mogrldge took the bat
tle with the count 8 to 0 in his favor
and held the enemy back with ease m
spite of the fact he was hit rather hard
toward the finish.
Manager Wolverton started Vaugan
against the Callahans, hoping to stop
them with a left hander for a change.
Vaughn pitched the game away before
a man was out. He began by passing Rath and Lord. Callahan fouled one bunt, then tried to hit one through Chase, who was tearing In for another bunt an dflnally poked a single to center. It looked like a catch for Zlnn, so Rath did not score and the bags were full. Collins .emptied part of them on to the plate with a two-tase smash along the right foul line. Rath and Lord scored and Callahan was stopped on third. Fournler was punctured by a loose pitch and that was as far as Wolverton would let Vaughn go.

WHITING SAYS IT IS
PURSUED. BY JINX
Some hoodoo seems to be pursuing
the Whiting team In the Northern In
diana league, according to Manager
Frank Helin, who says that the oil city
team has lost four of the iast six game?
by one run. When a team goes good
and la continually losing by such
small margin it is enough to make any baseball manager discouraged. But not so with Manager j Jlelin, as he is at present "working, fckrder than eve t6 overcome the awful handicap which the
team has been up against In the last
month. If it has not been the umpires,
who were responsible for the loss of a
game by one decision, it has been some
thing else, as In the game last Sunday when the Whiting team had a man on first with one out. The batter was
ordered to make the hit and run play and followed Instructions. The man on first going down on the first ball pitched and the opposing shortstop running over to cover the bag for the steal, was what stopped the Whiting team in the twelfth Inning. The batter hit the ball, which was on a line over second and good. for a single, hut the shortstop, running over to cover the bag, made a one-handed catch of the drive and threw to first, making a double play. Such luck is what the Whiting team has been up against for over a month and It seems that some jinx
is following the club. Changes have been made strengthening the team with the hope of starting a winning streak, but. to no avail. Two outfielders have been added and in. their first game showed improvement over their predecessors, and with a new third baseman next Sunday against the Hammond team Whiting will be In a position to do hattle which will be a credit to any
town with championship aspirations. Pete Dyer, the twlrler, has been the unfortunate player In the Northern Indiana league, as he has been pitching gilt edged ball all season and has been los
ing nearly all of his games by one run; enough to make any twirer discouraged. Every game he has -worked In has been an improvement over the previous one and still he has lost, but conditions will change and when they do look out for the Whiting team. Bergman of the Gunthers and Kruger will be the battery for Hammond Sunday when they meet Whiting at the latter's grounds.

New York, June 13. Lew Richie's
pitiful but desperate attempt to slide
to the plate yesterday probably de
prived him of a briliant victory over the
Giants with the unbeaten Rube Mar-
quard pitching for them. The lurid
Cub twlrler attempted to score In the
eighth inning from third When Downs
rolled one to Fletcher. He made a sort
of leaping slide and collided with Chief
Meyers, the sturdy New York catcher.
Lew was not only tagged out, but knocked out, and lay in a curling heap on the ground. Up to that time he had been master of the champions and the Cubs, were leading by one run. Lew had to leave the field and Mordecal Brown went in to pitch with no chance to warm up. The Giants then batted In two runs and won the combat, 3 to 2. Richie had been pitching wonderful ibalL He had everything and the Giants were helpless. In the seven rounds they had made six singles and tho one run they got was due to an error. There Is every reason to believe Richie would have set the enemy down in the remaining two rounds and the Cubs two runs would have been enough to win.

returns to Argentina In a fortnight.
Argentina, he says. Is a most expensive
country, and, although a man can make
lots of money, he is foolish to go there
without a fortune to start with. A great land and cattle boom is under

iiuuunii raiLo TO STOP ntioii IN 12 ROUNDS
Haven, Conn., Tuesday night, protested 1 here today against the claim made in New Haven that the bout was a fake. Coulon said: "The news that I was nearly drowned at Staten Island on Monday had reached the New Haven fans, causing them to think I wouldn't be In condition to fight. There was only about $250 in the house, and I had
been guaranteed $1,000" win, lose or draw. "The flght was fast, but Referee Fitzgerald cautioned unnecesarfly several times, so I was doubly careful. When he quit the ring In the third, declaring the bout a 'frameup the chief of police who waa at the ringside, promptly ordered the flght to go on and made the announcer referee. Knowing then that I would get a square deal, I rushed in and scored a knockout. And I got the money."
tage of the rule permitting It since the Ty Cobb incident a few weeks ago, was made by Third Baseman Smith of the Brooklyn team during the BrooklynPittsburg game Tuesday. Smith complained to Umpire Owens of what he claimed was abusive language being used by a spectator In one of the boxes. The spectator pointed out by Smith left the grand stand.

Bill Is Substituted for Jim
my Gardner at Boston; Sticks the Limit.
Boston, Mass., June 13.- Eddie McGoorty of Oshkosh was given the de
cision at the end of a twelve-round bout at the Pilgrim A. C. here last
night with Billy McKlnnon of Boston
a substitute for Jimmy Gardner, who was scheduled to flght McGoorty but
was unable to go on because of illness.
The management of the club had
Gardner at the ringside to weigh in to
show the memibers that Jimmy was in
condition and was sincere, but his phy
sician would not allow him to enter the ring. Gardner yesterday developed a bad case of tonsilitls and his doctor
thought it advisable for him not to enter the ring for a week or more. McKlnnon was in fine shape and put up one of the best fights of his career, but was no match for the Wisconsin man, who had a shade the better of every round. In the last round, when McGoorty was backing away from one of McKinnon's swings he slipped and fell through the ropes onto the hard concrete floor, but was back In the ring In a second and fighting strong at the bell. If the bout had gone another round Eddie would probably have won by the
knockout route, as the Boston man was tiring fast.
