SHUTOUT

Hammond baseball fans expected to ee an Important question settled In the same, yesterday between the Hammond Chicago league, team and the team from the Soldiers and Sailors club. Supremacy of either Balchley or Buckeye as pitcher wis the point In Question. It Is still unsettled. Atlhough the regulars won by a score of 5 to 0. 'neither Pitcher went the full came and honors were even when they were taken out. The big crowd attending was delifhted with a close up of MaJ. Gen. "W. Q. Haaa. U. S. A., who came to fill out his schedule. He was fittingly Introduced by Judge V. S. Relter and told of the value of athletics to the soldier boys. "I am not used to speaking to those above me," said the. general and the fans high up In the grandstand howled. Balchley pitched for the soldiers, starting the game with a bum finger which finally made !t necessary for him to drop out In the fifth Inning. Buckeye is slated to pitch tomorrow's game bo It was thought best to pull him out at the same time. Neither team had scored anl the pitching had been airtight. Cal'en finished the game, for the Hammond team and Walsh pitched for the soldiers. The regulars got four runs in the seventh and added another In the eighth. The Roselands come to Hammond Sunda ywlth & good record for the season.

marvelous Ingenuity may be expected to do America full Justice In -the Indianapolis fiye-century Armageddon.. Young blood and old are represented on the Frontenac team tn equal proportions, Louis Chevrolet and Ralph Mulford having already carved thair names on racing's scroll of fame at a time when Gaston Chevrolet and Joe Boyer Jr. ware hardly out of their knickers. However, the Juniors have profited much In skill and experience from the precepts of their elders, until today they are capable of holding their own with the best on either continent.
