HlilD GETS INTO

NEW STRIDE Mutuals Again Succumb to Parduhn's Pets, and the Game Is Cinched in First Inning for the Henning Crew. (By jxnooe.) Hammond stepped back into her stride again yesterday, and trounced the Mutuals of Chicago to the tune of 7 and 1. The game was cinched for Hammond In the first inning. Mokate started the ball rolling in the first by rapping out a triple to the center field fence with Knight and "Walsh on base. Then Heckert, the third sacker for the visitors, presented us with another score when his wild peg to first pulled that baseman off his station and let Mokate slide in. Hermlng's single to short center, coupled with that fielder's bad throw to third brought in Hudson and Mostil. setting a lead of five runs for the introductory frame. Hammond's complete lineup faced the .pitcher in this inning. Pitcher Kearns, of the visitors, refused to allowed this to rettle him, however, and fanned three of Hammond's best sluggers in the next Inning. He issued a pass to Knight, who stole second prettily, then struck out Moll. "Walsh and Mokate in quick succession. In the third the Mutuals scored when Pixley's double to deep right field, brought In pitcher Kearns. They never even got close after this. In the last of the eighth Henning, who got three clean hits, out of four times at bat, fined the bases by sending a hard grounder through short. Thompson sacrificed out . with a long, high drive to right field and De Lave scored. , Knight hit to third, forcing Henning out at second and scoring Hudson. This advanced the score to 7 and 1, where it remained throughout the game. Mostil and Be Lave Play. There were two new faces on the Hammond lineup yesterday. Both men have played in one previous game this season. Mostil replaced Shannon, who has been released at second base, and DeLave filled Rhode's position in right field. "While Mostil. who is a South Chicago product and who has piled up an enviable batting average in the Chicago League this season, did not come up to the fullest expectations of the fans, his error In the' second in no way endangered the result. Eddie De Lave, the Hubbard veteran, played a star game, both in the field and in the coop. His presence seemed to inject a surplus of'pep" Into the team. Hammond piled up eleven hits oft of Kearns. whereas Henning allowed but five. Out , of Hammond's eleven hits Hennig took three for his share, and Mokate two. t. Xiose to Cabana Saturday. Although Parduhn's men were beaten by the Cuban All Stars Saturday, the margin was dangerously close, and fhey were not outclassed. The game wound up. Cubans, 3; Hammond. 1. Hammond came so close to upsetting them in the closing frame that they were forced to pat in a new pitcher, even after Hammond had two down. We had filled the bases, and Mac Thompson was up, when the new twirler was sent in. He had a ball that travelled like a bullet, and all that Mac could do was to make three harmless punches at him. Anyone else would have done the same. . The baserunners died game, but disappointed. . The crowds at these two games were exceedingly small, due largely to the extreme warm weather.

LOSE "THEIR MATCH Team Weakened by Loss of Stars, Succumbs to Michigan City. The golf players of the Hammond Country Club were defeated by the Pottawottamie Club of Michigan City last Saturday afternoon by a score of 50 to 9 and the defeat was largely due to the non-particjpation in the match by ten of the local club's best players. Four of the Hammond squad failed to show up at the Country Club in the Leporte county town until after the pairings, because of the ditching of a machine between Schererville and Merrillville and this weakened the team considerably. Several of the Hammond stars were unable to get away. The locals were treated with magnificent hospitality by Michigan City and a return match will be given the latter in Hammond next month. to normal position by the use

BESOTS STUCK TO THEIR BEDS

Jack Bessey's actors were in bed Sunday morning, when they were supposed to play Thb Times employes and they showed some real common sense. An actor who is called Young pitched for Bessey's troupe, and showed some real steam. Thb Times bunch thought he had just come from the big league, but he said he played in the orchestra with Joe Winkler another actor who stuck to first base during ' those hot seven innings. "Now those two lads, the orchestra pair, were the only representatives of Bessey and the remainder of the team was made up of big league stuff while The Times played true blue and stuck to its original agreement and only allowed its employes to play. And, of course, The Times lost, 9 to '3. that's the reason the score follows the alibi. Outside of . four accidents the game was not marr?d. One fellow slid half way from second to home after three outs had been called but that's all in the game. WELL HERE IS CURLY SAYS c Hammond, Ind., July 16. Sporting Editor 'Ames: In replying to the challenge of Larney Lichtenstein in The Times in which he states he has an unknown wrestler whom he is willing to wager 200 that he can beat me. I wish to state that I would like to know who the man is and if he will bring him in under his right name. I will beat him to a standstill and I will accept his $200 side bet and more if he cares. I am more than willing to prove that I am entitled to a chance to wrestle for the middleweight championship of. the world by defeating the best men they can obtain prior to my coming match with "Billie" Schober of Indianapolis. Now it is up to Mr. Lichtenstein to put up or send that "bunk" stuff to some one else. I will meet him him at Clabby's Wednesday night and post a forfeit and sign'articles for a finish match. The sooner his man beats me the better I will like him. Tours in sport, CUR LET DAVIS. THOMPSON READY FOR BURMAN CHICAGO, July 16. The sensational rise to fame of Joe Burman isn't caus ing George Thompson, his opponent in the Racine ring a week from tonight,! any worry. George says his climb is just as sensational. Thompson displayed great ring form in California and in the East under Billy Gibson, now manager of Benny Leonard. In 1914 George won the Pacific coast championship, battlign through ten fights in the tournament.

CALLAHAN POPULAR MANAGER

By X. C. HAMXLTON (United Press Staff Correspondent.) NEW YORK. July 16. 0e of the most popular league managers who ever piloted a team in the National lcAuo was headed to minor leaguedom or private life when Jimmy Callahan drew his release from the Pittsburgh league club, lu spite of the fact that he has twice registered failures in the big show Callahan is respected as a smart baseball leader, a fine developer of pitchers, and a gentleman, Callahan first was a major league manager in Chicago, stepping in there after a brilliant career as a pitcher and outfielder. Backed by Charles Comiskey's open purse he attempted to lead the "White Sox to another pennant, but his efforts were failures. He developed a marvejous pitching staff, one that ranked with the best. Red Faber. Mel "Wolfgang. Eddie Cicotte, Jim Scott, Reb Russell, Ray Schalk. Happy Felsch and other Chicago stars went to the Windy City under his regime. When he was let out by Comiskey he went to the Pacific Coast league and plans were laid for him to run a club there until Barny Dreyfus decided on him as a successor to Fred Clarke. Callahan jumped at the chance to stick as a big league manager. In spite of the fact that he was willed a team that would hardly have been a good minor league club he went into the thing with his whole heart and tried hard to produce something. Experiment after experiment did nothing for the club's betterment. In addition he was guilty of several mistakes that made him decidedly unpopular with certain members of the club. Then the fans began to roar. There was nothing left but to give him the gate. x The release of Douglas Baird, an infielder, was one of Callahan's mistakes; his attempts to discipline Al Mamaux was another. Both cost ball games for the Pittsburgh club. Mamaux is one of tne best pitchers in the league Baird one of the most timely hitters. In spite of his failures and his errors Callahan goes from the National league with the good wishes of every manager and owner in the circuit. Miscellaneous Scores Ashlands, 6; Gary, 2.
