NAGEL BOOKS TWO STAR ATTRACTIONS

Hammond Will Have Stellar Attractions for Sunday and Labor Day. Hammond fans will have the opportunity of witnessing- two regular baW Karnes next Sunday and Monday. as Manager Nag-el has booked two stellar extractions for these 2 days, fcettlnp Harry Cohan's Dodger Trainings for

bunday and the famous Logan Squares on Labor Xay. I The Dodgers Tia-re strengthened their lineup with the addition of Left Fielder Harry Dann. who has just returned from overseas service. Dann played his first game last Sunday when he helped the Dodgers to an 8-7 win over! Jimmy Archer's Albany Parks, with a double and a home run. Dann will he remembered as some clouter when he played here with the old-time Galiigans In the days of Tete Kenning-. J Aside from Dann there are several other good men in the Dodgers lineup. Including Cronin at third base, Knjble shortstop and first baseman Kropp. Happy Rudolph, former Chicago University star, plays centerfleld and Baude, who had a tryout with Hammond as an outfielder earlier in the season, Is rutting up a whale of a game at second base, which is his natural position. According to Manager Harry Cohen, Baude is the best second baseman that ever played on his club. "Dutch" Heilman, who played on the Hammond team in 1917, is hack at his old job in right field for the Dodgers. Elmer Maagcr. who used to be Pete Henning"s rival in the old days, will do the pitching and Swede Olson will be on the receiving end. Since his last appearance in Hammond, earlier in the season. Maager has been going great, defeating some of the best teams in the league and right at the present time his one ambition is to turn it. win sgalrst the local team, so as to wipe out his defeat at the start of the year. That the Dodgers are coming out determined to cop is evidenced by the fact that they have .improved their club with five new men since the occasion of their last visit to the Hammond park. The new faces will be seen at shortstop, second and third base and in left and center field. Harry Cohen will probably be looking for some side bets as he feels sure that he will be able to take Hammond with his reconstructed lineup. On Monday. Labor Day. the Logan Squares will be the attraction at the local park and It is. expected that a record crowd will be out to see this team of stars In action against the Hammonds. Gihby Nelson will probably do the pitching for the visitors and Mike Heckinger the receiving. The balance of the team is made up of several stars, such as center fielder Harley, who is a brother to "Chick' Harley. the famous football player who gained his wonderful rep at Ohio State: first base-

What Happens'

The retiring merchant who possesses a "oh-I-guess-Nluo ait -till - they-come-in 9 9 attitude towards the general public, gets badly fooled. C They just don't come in. The merchant who puts his foot forward who advertises bargains gets the cream of the trade. His store is prosperous looking, his clerks are busy. Prosperity is his, q With a newspaper, whose circulation covers the district every night at his command, the merchant who doesn't advertise simply doesn't want business. Cf That's all there is to that. f You can't get away from that fact. Go where you will in Lake County or in any part of it, The Times goes every night. q The people in these days of high prices are looking for bargains.

That's What Happens!

the Hammond Baseball Club in conjunction with the Eogan Square Athletic Club of Chicago next Monday when the Logan Square Baseball team comes here to play the Hammond aggregation.

George Hankel Is known to be without a peer in the country west of New Tork at any distance from five miles up. Only two weeks ago he won the title of the central states five mile outdoor champion, winning the title from the most formidable field that ever faced the starter in the history of the event. Hankel is now in hard training and Is running all his races close to record time and is planning to bring home the bacon next year, which will earn him the title of world's champion. Charles Chuck Mellor, just recently returned from overseas service with the first prize Coblenz marathon trophy. Is considered the only rival of Hankel for marathon championship honors. The Logan Square Club has announced that it -will bring along with them next Monday these two phnomenal athletes and will enter them in the five mile run in the park which will be held Just before the baseball game. Another runner of national note who will come for the big event is Joe Stout, of the University of Chicago. Stout only a week ago returned from France where he competed and won the 1500 meter running race. t the interallied track and field championships. In addition to the five mile run and the baseball game an event that is to surpass anything of its kind in the past is to be held over the dusty roads from Chicago to Hammond, a distance oi twenty-five miles. All the leading pedestrians of the central states have been Invited to participate in this walking race from Michigan avenue and Jackson boulevard, in Chicago to the Hammond ball rark. The Portage Park Club of Portage Park. 111.; northwest of Chicago, is grooming a team of walkers who are rated only second to the formidable group of pedestrians of the Logan Square A.-C. who are without an equal in the central states. The Logan Club, with Al Tarker as Its leader of the walking team, will compete and from latest reports received from the Windy City, will attempt to set a new record between the two towns. Al Parker, it Is rumored, is tearing up the highways In the vicinity of the Logan Square A. C. in close to record time, and principally for this reason officials will be prepared should any new record be established. The other members of the Logan Square team are Elmer R. Hawley, Milton N. Gordon, Arthur W. Scott and Joie Kowalski. All are experienced pedestrians, having competed and come out victorious in many walking events held in the Windy City.
