The South Bend club of the Central
League has released Jesse Tannehill, the former big league pitcher, and signed Frankie Donohue, a brother of Jiggs Donohue. The Washington and Detroit teams have furnished the big surprise in the American League race. A year ago Detroit was leading and Washington was In seventh place. This season Washington is fighting for the ponnant, while Detroit is trying to break into the dungeon.

It was "split even" In result of the double-header ball game between Hammond and Crown Point at Erie park yesterday afternoon, with Hammond winning the initial contest and Crown Point grabbing the second. Nearly seven hundred fans, the record crowd for the season, witnessed both contests and left the field satisfied that they had seen two ball games. As the box score shows Crown Point had a shade the better of the argument, only losing the first game by having hits bunched in one inning and a couple of costly errors to combat with. Outside of this the locals
played faultless ball. Henntng making
an enviable record of striking out zi
of the Hammond men in the two games, besides assisting in 6 putouts and doing yeoman service with the war club. Hammond men also played a star game with perhaps Moll the stellar attraction, he at times playing sensational ball. Bergman also did well on the mound, but he was somewhat outclassed by Hennlng's wonderful work. Crown Point's new lineup showed up especially well against the league leaders and with an even break in baseball luck they should have captured both games. Crown Point's irnnhlo started in the fifth. Moll fan

Kruger scores him by a neat poke to center. Clabby goes out to Doll. For thirteen innings after this onslaught Henning held the visitors runless. while Crown Point got to
Tiets at will and punished Bergman, who took his place in the second game. The locals are confident of winning next Sunday's game at Hammond and with Henning in shape it looks like two straight from the league leaders at present. The box score for the two games is as follows:

Manager Irish's men won their game in the first Inning by scoring two runs on a succession of mlsplays by the Harbors combined with a base on balls and one hit. Wallace, the first man up for East Chicago, struck out.
Beech hit a nice, easy one to Baker,
who allowed the ball to go through his hands and the runner was safe. Beech stole second and went to third on Baker's failure to stop the catcher's rather wild throw to nail the runner. Pederson walked ' and stole second, going to third while Beech scored on Williams' single to center. Pederson scored on an attempt to
catch Ullman at second. Their score In the second was acquired on three
hits and two walks. The visitors earned their single run in the third. With one down Black singled to center, but was forced at second by O'Brien, the latter scoring on L. Walsh's two-bagger to deep center. Both pitchers did well considering the
day and condition of the grounds. Timmersman, a new man, pitched his first game for East Chicago and allowed but six hits, of which L. Walsh got two, a single and double. Helleman, another new man in the local lineup, also got a single and double. A good crowd was on hand, the bleachers being packed and the grand stand well filled. Becker, who has been doing some splendid umpiring in the Northern Indiana league, was the arbiter and while his work was falr-

Kenosha will be
next month. This was made oertaln last night whan John Keating, the promoter in the Wisconsin town, announced that he had planned four good shows for the late summer and fall. Keating has secured a lease on the Kenosha coliseum, the only available hall In the town. A summer garden has occupied the building during the past few months, but will be out of there in time for the promoter to
stage some bouts around the middle of August.
Keating names four windup attrac
tions which will be sure to draw Chi
cago fans to Kenosha and back in droves. For the opening show in August he plans to put on Packey Me-
Farland and Eddie Murphy, the stellar Irishmen who furnished such a sensational battle at South Bend last February. Murphy is ready to sign and no trouble with McFarland is expected.
Two or three days after Labor day
will see Eddie McGoorty boxing some
boxers classy middleweight at Kenosha. Billy
Papke of Kewanee Is the man wanted as his opponent, and already an offer has been made him. If Papke declines the match Bob Moha will be secured. Moha recently fought McGoorty in New York, and they are eager to get at each other again. 1 The third show will find Johnny Coulon and Frankie Burns, his most dangerous rival, mixing It for the bantam championship over the tenround route. Burns gave Coulon a
tough fight at New Orleans In January, and there was many a fan at the ringside who said it was robbery, pure and Blmple, to give Coulon the decision. Burns thinks he can shade Coulon easily in ten rounds. Charlie White, Nate Lewis' corking fighter, will get a chance In the fourth show and will be opposed to an old enemy, Joe Mandot. the lightweight champion of the south. If Keating goea through with these plans Chicago bugs will see the choicest lot of boxing they have bad a chance to gase at near home since the lid was clamped down years &KO.

New York. July 22. Winning only
three games out of twelve since leav
ing home caused Manager Callahan of the White Sox to do a bit of thinking
today, and the result of the mental action was a decision to make another
shakeup of the team and return to the same combination that was winning for him at the start of the sea
son. The Sox leader announced last
night that he intends to put Rollle Zelder back on first base today in the first game of the series with the Yan
kees and send "Shano" Collins to center field, putting Ping Bodie back in
right field.
Zelder has been playing utility role
ever since he was suspended in Detroit some weeks ago, and .the club has been going baaly ever since.
Fournler was put on first base in an
attempt to increase the batting, but the young Frenchman failed to produce many base hits and was taken out the other day, Collins being put on first and Mclntyre went to the out
field. This last combination proved unsatisfactory to the manager be
cause there was a weakness in the
base running, so now he wants Zelder,
one of the best base runners in the league, back In the game.

a magic name. The history of the fa
mous Cleveland player, who pAayed under Patsy Tebeau. was common
knowledge, but mo quickly does fame pass that today he is seldom spoken of among ball players or patrons of
the game. Sockalexls, when asked the ether day when he thought ef the present game, said: "I was Just reading the account of the double-header between Jimmy Callahan's White Sox and the Boston team. I was sorry to see Jimmy lose two games. I remember when I played with Holy Cross we met the Springfield team. At that time Callahan was the pitcher for Springfield, and by real start in baseball was in that game. I made three two-baggers oft his delvery, and Jimmy was some
pitcher, too."

Lefty Leifield was the conqueror of Rucker, the one man on Brooklyn's pitching staff who consistently gives his opponents trouble and who stands between Brooklyn and the tall
end. Lefty allowed almost as many base hits as the Cubs made off Rucker, but showed much greater intellectuality In the choice of the times to be stingy. Leifield was also assisted by a couple of . plays which picked Brooklyn runners off first base Just ahead
