Hammond and Crown Point, who were also represented, failed to get a place In the events In which they were entered. Lake county athletes, like the other schools who were entered, found the day far from ideal for staging track event. A cold wind from the north aided the runners In the dashes, but retarded the progress of those in the middle and long distance runs.
Mette of Hammord and AUman of
Crown Foint, who have been doing 2:05 in the 880-yard rur in practice, found themselves hindered by the cutting cold wind and failed to get in the money, when Cummings of Hector. Minn., crossed the tape with a time of 2:0S S-5. .Paul Hake of Gary was among the finishers, scoring third place for the steel city school. The 880-yard run was easily the most interesting and prettiest race of the day. In the third heat of the 220-yard dash Davidson of Gary came in second with a time of 24 3-5, but failed to get a place in the finals, nearly three seconds being clipped off the former time. K. Vater made the only points for the Whiting high school. scoring , third place in the discus. The distance was 107 fett. Considering the fast bunch of star athletes that the Lake county aggregation had to comepte against, they did well in scoring four points and they were the only Indiana schools to take a point. One world's interscholastic record was tied and three University of Chicago interscholastic records broken. C. Hoyt of Greenfield, Iowa, hung up a

the Century dash and equaled the world record of :09 4-6. Hoyt won the event last year In :10 flat. Parker of Stockton won firsts In both trial heats and the first semi-finals. He made :09 4-6 in the first trial, but got a bad start and did not place In the point race. Haymond of Springville, Utah, took second; Irish of Oak Park was third, and Vail of Toledo fourth. Hoyt established his second Chicago interscholastic record In the 220-yard dash, which he won in :21 4-5, outstripping his opponents by five yards. Hoyt clipped one-fifth of a second from the record established by R. A. Mills of Morgan Park academy in 1907.

i i i t McGraw and Players Rush j at O'Day as He Calls ! Miller Safe.
It was like the historic combats of other years when the Cubs and Giants
! met on the west side yesterday and enI gaged in a desperate ten-inning strug
gle with a riotous finish. The Cubs pushed over the winning run and gained the vtrdict by a count of 2 to 1. A remarkably close play at the home
wplate decided the game and it was
quite fitting that Hank O'Day, the veteran umpire, was the man there to make the decision. Hank has figured In famous decisions with these two teams in the past. He called tht Cub base runner safe and a half dozen New York players, led by their scrappy leader, John McGraw, rushed at him in fury, but Hank shook them oft and walked quietly to his dressing room as If nothing had happened. For nine innings it had been a terrific fight, with the Giants a bit superior in attacking power. Charley Smith, our tall, slim hurler, had worked with painstaking precision against Big Jeff Tesreau, who was In brilliant form, and each side had scored one run early In the contest.
Detroit, Mich.. June 9. Outfielder Davy Jones, recently sold by the Sox to Toledo, Is out of baseball for good. Jones will open another drug store here and devote his whole time to his business. Toledo offered him too small a salary.

WALSH'S SHOWING
AGAINST NEW YORK CHEERSWHITE SOX
No Gloom in Callahan Camp
Because of Fluke Defeat ' 'rf-hy Yankees.
New-York, June 9. Chicago's White
Sox spent Sunday cleaning and dry
ing their uniforms after the mud and
shower bath they went through Satur
day in the "Keating day"-game with the Yankees. After finishing their
laundering the Sox enjoyed a perfect
day off, as the murky weather in which
they landed here cleared off cool and made it perfectly comfortable to play
the national indoor game all day.
The fluke defeat of Saturday left little gloom in the Callahan camp, as it merely was a case of taking a chance to get the bigmoney. The Sox and their pilot are elated over thes howlng made by Ed Walsh and by the fact they got through the mudy task without serious injury to any of the players. The Big Reel pitched the best game he has shown this season and under the worst possible conditions. Ills arm appeared to have remaintd most of its strength. He had a fast ball and a good breaking spltter during the earlier innings. He lost control of the damp ball, and that fact, combined with a perfectly excusable slip by Buck Weaver, turned the scale in favor of the Chance tribe. . , . 0T00LE SHOWS FINE PLUCK Pittsburgh, Pa., June 9. Pitcher Marty O'Toole of the Pittsburgh Pirates, in spite of the fact that his wife lies at the Allegheny hospital undergoing an operation, walked into the box and pitched a fine game Saturday. He displayed more pluck than was realized by the onlooking fans when he relieved Howard Camnits in the second inning. Five hits and one run were scored off him, but the two hits that resulted in the run were of the lucky order. Mrs. O'Toole is resting satisfactorily today and the surgeons express every hope that she will recover.

10 SAM SETS BUTTE GOLF
Member of Evans' Midwest ern Team Earns Gold Medal With a Seventy-Two Card.
MA
By Charles Butte, Mont., had a splendid
("Chirk") Bvana. June 9. Ned Sawyer 72 yesterday morning
over the prettily situated course at Butte, Mont. There was a huge cloudburst in the afternoon, and playing was impossible. As a result of Ned's morning round he receives a handsome gold medal which was put up by the Butte Golf club for the best 36-hole score. His 72, made up of a 37 and a 35, sets a new course record, being a stroke better than the old record of 73. Vegetation had grown scantier and scantier after we left the big green fields of Dakota, and the whole country when we awoke yesterday morning looked barren and bleak. Big rocks Jutted out all over the landscape, and there was something inexpressibly dreary in the vastness and the barrenness of the mountains. Butte and its golf course are near the copper mines. Butte is a thriving city, with a most energetic and prosperous population, a goodly number of whom are golfers. About eighteen miles out of Butte a committee from the Butte Golf club came aboard our car. The mid-western team was warmly welcomed by the president of the club. Dr. McCrinnon, and some of its members at the station. After being driven In automobiles around the town, we went to the golf
links, which lie near the only body of water near Butte, a few miles out of
the city.
une utte goirers did not take our
team match very seriously, but we
found some good golfers among them. Dr. McCrinnon and I beat Warren Wood and Mr. Sales by one hole in the morning. Ned Sawyer and Mr. Barker, who was runner-up to McCaun of Victoria for the Pacific northwest championship, held here a week ago, trounced Harry Legg and Dr. Witherspoon. The other matches were close. A large and interested gallery followed the games. Their players have not had much experience and the golf course only dates back five years. The links are most picturesquely situated. Towering snow-capped , mountains are seen from every tree and green, and it seems as if the wonderful little layout Is just walled in by mountains. There Is no grass on the fair, greens, and the rough has only little bunches of a very tough grass. Our clubs have become very much nicked because the surface of the ground . is more or less pebbly. The greens are, of course, sand, and surprisingly small, and all of us found much difficulty negotiating our approaches. All in all, the course is a wonder, because, of all the things one would expect to see in this country they would least expect a golf course.
boys all digested yet. When game time came Mr. Htimbach said he was going to umpire for the Hammond team, but as he had money up on the game there was a kick, but finally after he had as much as said, like
some kid about six years old, that
they would not stand for no one but him to umpire the game was started
with him umpiring, but watch, was
kept on him all the time. Whwe thi

shoved the base over so the runner
could touch it because he could be put
out. In the inning when all the trouble started, the seventh, after our boys had started to hit Llghtey all
over ' the' lot and the manager of the
Hammond team seen he stood a good
show to lose that .325, he thought it was a good time to get in some of his
punk umpiring, but the crowd would
not stand for it. Carson of Lowell came home from third base and slid
In and was on home plate' when Grat-
wich, Hammond's catcher, received the ball, and Helmbach, who was umpiring balls. and strikes, called him out. It
was then that the crowd rose Mf and would not stand for such rotten umpiring , by a man who Is supposed to have a good pair of eyes to see with. After much discussion they gave Lowell the run, which shows that they did not , think the man was out or they would have quit right there. Of course they had the Lowell boys beaten up to the seventh Inning, but after they had three men out in the seventh the score board showed nine runs for Lowell. Mr. Heimbach has been coming to Lowell with teams from Hammond for two seasons and everything has passed oft nicely. The whole thing In a nutshell is that they thought they were coming down to a country town and if they could not win any other way, to steal It. But It did not work and as a result they are out their $25 and as a natural result they are very sore. We always try to treat all visiting teams right and if we are beaten it Is all right with us without a lot of kicking around like a lot of kids. But if they come here trying to slip any of their raw deals over like they did Decoration day" they are going to go homo a much sader and wiser bunch like the North Ends did Decoration day. , A. G. RIDDLE. 'Manager Lowell Baseball Team.
SCHULTE UNDER KNIFE; MAY BE ' IN GAME TODAY Frank M. Schulte, "right fielder than whom" of the Cubs, was not among those participating yesterday in the disciplining of the Giants, because he had a prior engagement on Dr. William Cuthbertson's operating table. Nothing serious he will be in the game today or tomorrow.
A little more than a year Schulte's head met a baseball, since then he has been troubled intermittent headaches. Lately
bother - has increased a little, and it was found that there was infection under he old bruise. Schulte was taken to the Lakeside hospital yesterday morning, and the operation was performed under local anaesthesia. After a few hours the patient was permitted to go home, and the doctor said he could. play today, but must not be hit again in the same place.

LOWELL IMAGER TELLS HIS TEAM'S SIDE OF DISPOTE
(Special to The Times.) Lowell, Ind., June 9. In answer to the article in Ths Times of May 31 in regard to the game of ball between the Lowell team and the North Ends of Hammond, the Lowell side of the story is as follows, although it is a little late: The North Ends played at Lowell all right Decoration day and they were
beaten. When Manager Heimbach of the North Ends scheduled the game he wanted to play for a side bet of 325, which was put up by both sides before the game started. When they arrived in Lowell that morning they said they had a team that would eat Lowell up this time, and probably the cause of the article in The Times of May 31 was that they had not cot the
