Artlo Anderson, well-known to followers cf local r.err.i-pro baseball as a star pitcher for the Magnets cf the Chicago League, was drowned yesterday afternoon in Carr.p I,akp, Wis. Anderson, who was an employe of the Illinois Tool Company, was spending his two weeks' vacation at the lake with a few friends. About 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, he left his chums to go swimming. He paddled out into the lake a'one In a canoe. He was seen to dive off of the bark. It is thought .that the canoe drifted away from him, and that before he could regain it he was seised with cramps. Anderson was a good swimmer, and his friends can conceive of only this a a possible explanation. Ills body had tiot yet been recovered late last night. Anderson had been with the "Magnets ever since their organization ten years ago. The club then bore the name of the Young White Sox, and Artie was the star twirler. He was 23 years old. and was preparing to answer the call to service under the first military draft All his friends unite In saying that "Artie sure was a regular guy." He was the son cf Albert Anderson, 1042 North Kildare avenue.

In splto of the intense heat both teams displayed a lot of pep. In the first inning it seemed as though the Nationals were going Ho run away with everything, scoring 5 runs, but "Chuck", the Kasper's twirler. tightened up and did not allow a hit in the next three Innings, striking out six consecutive men. his grand total amounting to 13, while Szitas striking out but 4. Air tight support and slugging won for Szitas. Out of' ?2 balls being hit out to the field 7 were clean hits while the rest were robbed from the Hammond lads by the jpectacular outrielding cf S. Lott and P.. Blumenthal and the. quick brain work of Mckula and Maver in the Infield had the opponents baffled on the paths. In the seventh te Nationals again founi "Chuck" easy, getting 4 hits and 3 runs, cinching the game. The . .ationals have so far won 7 and lost 5. They have made a good showing against some of the strongest teams in the Calumet region. Score: Kasper C. ..00001201 0 4 7 9 I. H. Ntls. ..5 0 0 0 01 3 2 x 11 13 2 Batteries Szltas. . Bahel; Chuck.

Et E. C. HAM2I.TOK'. (TTni-sd. Fro3 faff Corre'PnSiit.) NEW YOhK, July 21. Just Ss badly as the ' thle'io need a ci"::l st'. -sngth-cning, th New York American league bas-cba.l club will have to have a few outfielders on its payroll bcZon it can expect to obtain fearsome consideration from its rivals. Lee Magee and Elmer Miller, two outfielders who are now Rrsrclns the staff of lly-chasers. are hopeless. Hugh High is some better, but is decidedly nothing to brag about. Tim Hendryx" Is the only man who appears' to be anything in view of major league class. Frflnk Gilhooley's work this spring lets him out. If he comes back and shows the same clas9 he displayed a year ago he will take rank with the best In the game. So far he is only a mediocre outfielder. Bill Donovan was well bilked when Lee Magee was turned over to him as the Federal league kicked in its dying throes. Once termed the only rival of Ty Cobb and believed to be the final touch that would bring an American league pennant to the natlon'3 metropolis. Magee has fUvvered badly. When with the Cardinals Magee played fine ball. He hit around .300 all tho time, his base running was excellent, his arm was good, and he could run bases with the best either league boasted. That was when he was a National leaguer. "Whether it Is the difference in class, or whether Magfce was greatly over-rated Is hard to say, but the fact remains that he looks far worse than many recruit outfielders who are annually turned back from the major leagues. Donovan has several pitchers who are warming the bench daily. He has so many filngers. in fact, that most of them are obliged to sit around and only keep in fair condition. If he could arrange a trade that would send any of these heavers to some club with a' surplus of outfielders he would be conferring a great favor on himself. Surplus outfielders, however, are extremely scarce. The National league has most of them and getting a good outfielder out of the National league would be akin 1o getting the fight out of the American army. His only salvation appears to be a process of minor league scouting that may save the Yankees a year hence.
