be done on earth as It Is in meaven.

That "$22,500 pitching" is fine gravy,

The University of Vermont baseball

It is said that Pitcher "Wild Bill"
Donovan of the Detroit Tigers, will give up active baseball after this season and
become a manager of some minor

East Las Vegas. N. M., June 15 The assiduous and careful training methods of one Jack Johnson are showing their effect. Today the giant negro weighs but 219 pounds. A drop of ten pounds In almost the same number of days! Yes, the astute black is too careless. "I'll be down to 205 pounds when I step into the ring," grinned the Ethiopian. "They say I can't get into condition. They don't know." And the big fellow looks it. There hasn't been a healthier looking piece of ebony afloat in these parts and the
tar-hued hide Is covering a bunch of
symmetrical and wiry muscles.
After some discussion between Pro

Curley act as the third man In the ring.

Philadelphia, Pa., June 15. By mak

5. At least, if there was any other reason why they won, it wasn't apparent. It took some good pitching to hold the restless Quakers back, for they were continually threatening to break lose. Ed Reulbach pitched most of the game and had plenty of stuff, but his wildnees in the eighth got him in such a tight place that Manager Chance re-

look somewhat uncertain, as the weather man will not promise a clear Sunday, saying It will be probably unset

but providing the weather man misses his guess there will be some good
games.
Gary is still on top by two games and tomorrow wUI line up against Crown Point, who will endeavor to turn the trick on the steel city warriors. Hammond will face Whiting and providing Gary loses to Crown Point and Hammond wins they will be in a tie for first honors. East Chicago holds third place, while Whiting and Indiana Harbor are in a tie at fourth place.

Hammond team in their second appear-

Manager Frank Helln of the Whiting team, becoming desperate by the loss of four games out of the last six by one run, has strengthened the team for Sunday's game by the addition of a new lnflelder and a twlrler.
Schultz, a local product, will probably be given an opportunity to show hie ability as a twlrler, and will be encouraged in his work by many of the home fans. Bergman, formerly of the
Gunthers of Chicago, will twirl for the Hammond team, anI will be caught by

Reulbach wasn't wild in the early part of the game, but he had some horrible support in- the" first round that "let the Phillies get off in the lead. Young Mr. Seaton, tall and rangy, was elected to twirl for the home team, and Jerry Downs, our substitute for Capt. Tinker, drove the youngster oft the rubber by his terrific batting. In the sixth inning when the score was tied, Jerry belted one over the center fielder's had for three bases, that put the Cubs In front. Then In the following round Jerry came up with two on the runway and drove the ball Into the left field bleacher for a home run that clinched the victory. Tinker sat in the grand stand green with envy. A youth named Wallace then went to the mound.
Later Wallace gave way to a pinch hit
