DEMPSEY

HEADS FOR TOLEDO

INTERNATIONAL NrWS SERVICE! TOLEDO. May 14. Jark Dempsey is expected to arrie hre today from Chicago and will immediately take up the task of conditioning himself for his battle for the world's heavyweight championship fijtht with Jess YVillard in this city July 4. Dempsey is motoring over rom Chicago where "he and his manager Jack Kearns have been dickering with Ed Strangler Lewis who is wanted in rmpsey's training group to teach Jack bow to use. his shoulders and elbows. Tiempsey evidently expects the champion to hold on or rough th'ngs in the clinches and says he wants to master a. few of the wrestlers tricks so he can shake the champion off. if necessary. Work on rhe arena in -which the fight win b staged and which will be an eight sided affair with the last rows of seats about 300 feet from the rin:; will probably be started the latter part of this week. A Toledo firm is expected to land the contract today.

CLASSIC

FOR BALTIMORE

JACOBS held the Pirates to three bits, one of them a, circuit clout and the Phillies beat the Tirates 3 to 2.

THE Tigers and Indians took 11 wallops apiece but Cleveland's hits were erowded together and the Indians won to P.

INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICEI BALTIMORE, Md., May 14 Turf patricians and pUbians gathered here today in numbers never before recorded in Maryland to witness the renewal of the Preakness stakes to be run as the fourth number on the inogram at Pinilico this afternoon. The Preakness is the richest of present day of American turf classics, having an added value of 125.000. and a gross value of $31,000. Interest Is tense. Hotels are crowded to overflowing. Hundreds of persons arriving during the night were unablo to secure accommodations. Every train arriving this morning deposited large quotas of race fans. Weather conditions were Just about right, but it is improbable that speed records will be shattered or th3 track record time 1:51 for the distance of the race one mile and a furlong will bo equalled as close examination shows that the course is not fast but in a condition that experts describe as "good." The race is conditioned for colts and fillies, thus barring Hilly Kelly. Be. Frank and other high class geldings. Fifteen stars of the thoroughbred world who were carded to go were given their final preparations this morning. Dunboyne and Vindex. who ran so disappointingly in the Kentucky derby are reported to have shown best in their final workouts. Sir Barton, victor in the Kentucky derby, has been installed favorite and Trainer Guy Butwell expressed confidence that the Ross star will annex the Preakness with as much ease as he did the derby.

Hammond baseball fans are still talking about that game Sunday. The best of them felt their nerve slipping in the first inning when Rogers Park pushed one run aoross in short order and Buckeye seemed unsteady. They look at things differently now. Considering tho carhness of the season Buckeye pitched phenomenal ball and to back hint up was the timely and heay hitting of Thompson. Callahan. Walsh and Blank. Buckeje's twenty strikeouts will no doubt stand as a record for the reason. Next Sunday's game with the Dodger Training team should draw a "standing room only" crowd at the Hammond park. Rain cheated Hammond o of one chance at the visitors who hae been playing snappy ball from the first. Manager N'agle has studied hts players carefully and can see no necessity for changing the lineup for Sunday's game except of course to give Baii-hlcy a chance to show his ability on the slab. He is well satisfied with ihe work of his team as a whole. The only displeasing feature of last Sunday's game was that the score board was not working and Mr. Nagle promises that this will.be attended to in time for the Dodgers Training game.

ST. CASSIMIR'S WIN. St. Cammir's won 'its first game of the season. Sunday, defeating Maehne' Colts in a. good contest by a score of IS to 3. Becky and Jerry started the game for Haehnel's and with the support of other plaers staged a gon,1 fight, but could not withstand the fast play of the Poles. Owczariak fanned about seven of the Colts with his deceptive spitter. and Filas contributed four runs. Pielrauciyk. Walsk; and Kuta deserve honorary mention for their splend'.d rlay throughout the game. Next game will be played Saturday at Douglas Tark with AYhitn Eaglo-? cf Hegewiscli. Score by Innings: St. Cassiivnrs 311 401 C;0 llaehncl Colts 310 oil f'21

TAGGING ALL THE BASES By JACK VEIOCK I. N. S. Sport Editor

WHILE Grover "Clever" Alexander was worrying about what burglars did with $S.e00 worth of friend wife's Jewels, the Giants robbed him of ninhits and a 3 to I game. WITH no missing Jewels to keep him awake, Benny Kauc went sound asleep a mile off second, was tagged out and then bawled out by indignant Giant

fans. ED KONETCHY'S big -war club saved the day for the Dodgers In an 11-lnning go w ith the Reds. Koney rasted in the tying run in the ninth and laid the foundation for the winning tally. t THE Browns met Mr. Robrrson. a White Sox recruit, liked him. spanked him for five bingles and two runs in two innings and trimmed the Comlskeyites, ; (o 1. THE Braves bunched three of thir misplays Jn one round, giving the Cards an extra, tally after they had nailed down the scrap by collecting hits off Xehf.

o You Pay 66

for Sirloin Steak? or 33 Cents? We. serve all tastes A recent Government bulletin quoted sirloin steak in different cities at prices ranging from 33 to 66 cents! We buy live cattle, according to quality, all the way from $7.00 to $20.00 per hundred-weight, live weight. Sirloins from these cattle vary greatly in quality. Some retailers sell 33 cent sirloins. These steaks come from cheaper cattle. Customers of other retailers demand choice sirloins at 66 cents. These retailers buy meat from higher-priced cattle. Also, the retailer who carries complete stocks, delivers to your door, and lets you run a charge account, has to get higher prices than the retailer who runs a "cash and carry" store. We sell beef of a given quality at practically the same price all over the country except for slight differences due to freight rates. And our profit hardly affects the price at all only a fraction of a cent per pound. Swift & Company, U. S. A.

HAVANA STARS AT INDIANA

HARBOR I

The Havana Stars, one of the fasir;t colored semi-pro teams now travelling in this part of th country, will feature at Indiana Harbor the coming Sunday.

j May ISth. This team has won six i straight games so far this season, their j last victory being over Bert Fairchild s j Cragin A. C.'s of the Chicago League. I After their last Sunday's w in the Harbor club feel certain tfcey w ill give the

colored stars a hard run for their money. The local boys have gone to big expense in bringing this well known team to this city. In securing a gam of this kind it is sincerely hoped that the home folks will show tiieir appreciation of this fact by attending in full force and support.

SIMON FLINGS NO-HIT, NO-RUN GAME

The Liberty Colts of Hammond reeived a woeful drubbing last Sunday at.

! Reid-Murdoh's grounds w hen Simon.

slabman of the Last Chicago Peerless A. C. pitched a no-hit no-run game against them. His offerings were practically impregnable for only one man succeeded in lifting the ball out of the infield for an easy outfield fly, the others popped out on easy grounders or returned to the bench after exercising their arms for three hcafthy swings at the ball. The Peerless A. C. batters hammered Hoeppner's offerings for 10 hits, netting 11 runs. A sharp northwert wind buffed many long drives over to the foul line, otherwise the hit. column might have swollen several points larg-

! er for the Teerless.

Some flashy infield playing was rendered by the Peerless crew that aided Simon greatly in achieing his wonderful record. A fast double play by the Feerless. Igntaz to Buckley to Ignatz. putting a man out at home and the runner out at first, settled the only rally the Liberty were able to scare up. Score: Peerless A.
