EAST CHICAGO. About fifty members of the Congregational church surprised Mr. and Mrs. William Pulling at their home Jn Baring avenue last night. The occasion was a farewell party previous to the departure of Mr. Pulling, who leaves today for Hamilton. Ont., to assume his duties, as general foreman of the Grasselll Chemical Co.'s plant at that city. Mrs. Pulling: will remain in East Chicago until Sept. 1, when she will join her husband in the Canadian city. The members of the party took along their refreshments and farewel talks were given by Dr. Alexander Monroe. Supt. E. N. Canine, A. H. W. Johnson. W. C. Bailey and Dr. Spear, suitable response being given by Mr. Pulling. The Pulllngs will be greatly missed in East Chicago circles after their departure.

Supt. E. N. Canine was in Chicago yesterday attending the National Educational association convention, which Is in progress there at the Congress hotel. Dr. and Mrs. Alexander Monroe returned yesterday from Chicago, where they had been spending a few days with their daughter, Mrs. Wil Leiferman. There will be a special meeting of Miriam Rebekah lodge Thursday evening at T:30 o'clock in the Odd Fellows hall. All members are requested to .attend. Next Saturday afternoon the Calumets will meet the Ea.it Chicago team of the Northern Indiana League at the latter's park, Forsyth avenue and 141st street. The game Is being promoted by Jake Friedman, who thinks so well of the Oklahoma team that he is bet- . ting Bob Alexander 25 on the result. . The Calumets have not been defeated thus far this year, but on the other hand they have not been up against anything like the class of ball players that they will encounter Saturday. Considerable interest is being manifested ' in the game all over town.

the residence of Mrs. M. Elmore. 8142 Aldis avenue. Mrs. Elmore will be assisted in entertaining by.. Mrs. John Stephens.

COULON MAY FIGHT BURNS

New York, July 10. If satisfactory ;

arrangements can be made a match will be clinched In a few- days between Johnny Coulon. the bantamweight champion, and Frankle Burns, I the clever little bantamweight of JerI sey City. Coulon has agreed to meet Burns if the latter will weigh at 116 ! pounds at the rin$rslde. As Burns is I willing to make that weight, the only j thing that will prevent the match will be for the fighter to demand too much money.

Stockholm, July 10. As a result of yesterday's heats, I think the United States is practically sure of winning

the 1,500-meter run today, but we haven't a chance in the 5.000. In the j 1.500 meters yesterday we qualified i

seven men, but I only figure on three of them to score they are John Paul Jones, Abel Kiviat, Tabor and possibly Sheppard. Of the three, Kiviat ran in the most impressive fashion, but Jones and Tabor took things easy. Jones in particular tried his best to bring Anderson into place and paid no attention to Jackson of Oxford. Jackson is undoubtedly the most dangerous among the outsiders, although Wilde ran exceptionally well for Sweden. The three Americans are so evenly matched that I will not attempt to pick the winner. The race is most likely to be decided by the generalship of the runners. This is something which the men have to work out themselves during a race. There is always danger of our men failing to do themselves Justice under these climatic conditions. This may

upset our calculations, but I shall be greatly surprised If we do not bur

nish the winner and at least another place with the three men I have men

tioned.

With two such wonderful runners as Kohalemalnen of Finland and Bouln

of France in the 5,000 meters we do not look for anything better than third place. Boutn by his wonderful run In the final heat yesterday showed that he has regained his form if he

ever really lost it.

Because of Kohlemainen's work in the 10,000 meters on Sunday and Mon

day, the Frenchman snoula nave a

slight advantage. The race is sure to

be run well under fifteen minutes.

Both of these men seem to have the ability to sprint at any part of their run and the race will therefore be a duel between them. Our best hope for a plaoe In this race Is Bonhag. He ran exceptionally well .yesterday morning, but I doubt if he would have been able to do enough hard work to make either of them any trouble. The disqualification of the German relay team emphasizes again the criticism I made of this sort of racing.. It could never be popular In our country, because speed Is made secondary to the passing of the stick. Of the other' events which are on today's program, we ought to win the shot put and qualify as many men In the semi-finals of the 200 meters as we did In the 100 meters.

would permit the bout at Roosevelt

Chief McWeeney likewise was em

phatic in his declaration mat the fight would not be held.

"As yet I have not been asked to

issue a permit for any such purpose," he said, "and I can assure you that in the event the application is made

will refuse to sanction any prize

MACKS BEAT SOX

BY FINAL RALLY CUBS LOSE, 5-Z;

WEAK l PINCHES

Philadelphia, Pa., July 10. A ninthinning blowup lost the first game of the White Sox eastern Invasion. After the Sox and Athletics had struggled along desperately with the score tied, the Sox finally pushed over the needed run in their half of the ninth, only to throw the game away In the last half on three bad t plays. The final score was 3 to 2 in favor of the big champions. Ed Walsh and Jack Coombs were hooked up in a pitchers" duel, and it was a dandy until the last of the ninth. The Sox seemed so elated over putting over what they thought to be the winning run that they played ball like high school boys during the final attack of the champions and tossed the victory away. Walsh had blanked the big fellows from the first to the ninth. They scored one on him in the opening round and then It didn't look as ly they could have scored another on him all summer. The Sox put one over In the fourth and with a concentrated at-

Lack of that co-ordination which is the essence of winning baseball Inside or out cost the Cubs the second game of their series with New York yesterday, although they outplayed the Giants In every other way. The visitors bunched their fire, while the home boys scattered theirs. Result, 5 to 2 agin us. Just how Chance's men escaped making more than two runs with eleven safe hits and a parcel of five errors to help them out Is difficult, to dope, but that was what actually happened. The Giants made bettt-r use of nine hits, for they turned thein Into five tallies with the help of only three Cub boots. Mordecal Brown and Christy Mathewson, veteran rivals, who have fought out many a grueling combat against each other, were hooked up on the slab and battled to a finish.

Their work was notable, particularly

for the apparently perfect control they had. Not a basemen "balls was. Issued on either side, and not a base was stolen. One man on each team tried It. Mathewson caught the Cub daredevil and Archer winged out the reoklesa Giant.

TRAMPS TO PLAY BALL; LOSERS TO STONE PILE Wilkesbarre. Pa., July 10. When thirty tramps, recently arrested by the police of Plymouth borough,, were arraigned before Burgess W. D. Morris, who is an enthusiastic baseball fan, he ordered that the men be divided Into two equal squads from which two teams are to be selected to play a nine Inning game on the town common. The winning squad Is to go free, but the losers will be compelled to. pound stone for two days.

New York, July 10. Anxious to get a match with Jack Johnson before he quits the ring for good In September, Tommy Burns has Just posted a forfeit of $1,000 at Calgary, Canada, and issued, a challenge to fight, him for twenty rounds, either In this country or in Australia, for the heavyweight championship "of the 'world.
