E. Chicago Bumps K. C. Hammond

East Chicago mnl food with a ventanco. The Twin City Caseys evened up the count at one gam a pice, r-s-terday afternoon at Harrison Park, when they handed the Hammond Knights as awful bumping by the lopElded scoro of 10 to 5. Going Into the third Inning. East Chicago was trailing three runs bphind, but Httle did that effect their fighting spirit as once they got started they were never to be stopped, and as fast as they sot men on the bases, they would push them around to the homo plate. Hammond was first to score !n the opening Inning and the way they started It looked like they mean tto few up the ball game in a hurry, but a!l the pep shown in the first two Innings soon riled out and once East Chicago took the lead they were never to be beaten. After their f.rst big rally in the third the Twin City players seemed to "be ftHed Just chuck full of that needed confidence to carry them on to victory. Hammond made their first two runs so quick that East Chicago hardly knew what had happened. O'Rourke led off with a single to center, was advanced to second on Erennan's sacrifice and went to third on a short passed ball. Tague worked Morgan for a pass and stole second, from where he scored easily along with O'Rourke on Trendergast's three base blow to deep right center. Handy bumped a hot roller to iJant at short, but he made a nice stop and throw, when he hustled the bail home and got Prendergast on a close piay at the plate. Handy stole second and went to third on another passed ball. Morgan then walked Chandler and after he stole second. Enrlght was also parsed filling up the bases. Tommy Harle ended the inning with a long fly to Methane In center field. Mac was a busy guy ail afternoon, bagging six fi;es in as many attempts. Hammond had a chance to score some more runs in the second, but the best they could do was to push over one marker on three hits, and a ba.se on balls. Dalton and O'Kourke led off with clean singles, but Bhinnan, instead of playing the sacrifice game, decided to have his swings, which he did. when Morgan struck him out. Tague also fanned In the rinch, but Prendergast strolled, filling the bases for the second time in the first two innings. 'With the sacks loaded. Handy hit a wicked liner down between short and third and with Gant running over to knock down the hit, the ball took a fast hop and struck the gritty little shortstop flush in the face. For a. minute the crowd thought Gan was eeriouly Injured but after a little delay he was able to resume playing at his regular position. This blow scored ralton, but Foust was able to recover the ball In time to hold O'Rourke on third. It was another good play on the part of the Twin City shortstop, as had the hit gone through to the outfield it would have been good for two runs. With the bases still crowded. Chandler lifted a fly .to McShane for the third out. This was all for Hammond up until the eighth when Chandler singled off the third 'baseman's shins and both he end Enrlght ecorad on Foust's wild throw. "With Chandler going to second Enrlght hit a, hot one down the third base line, which Foust fielded cleanly, but In his effort to force Chandler at the middle Tvig, he threw the ball far into right field, allowing both men to score, before the pill could be relayed to the plate. Hammond's only other chance to seore was In the ninth, when they had runners on second and third with two

down, but Chandler's best effort in this last chance, was a feeble roller to the riteher for the third out. Ialton's downfall In the third Inning was partly due to his own wildness. as re passed three men right at the critical stages. Foust ld off in this inning with a clean single to right and stole second. McShane walked and Immediately put on a double steal with Foust. putting runners on prnnd and third with none down. Gant followed with a roller to Chandler, on which he had r.o chance to get tho man at the plate, but when Erennan failed to cover first base, Keenan, who was coaching at the Initial sack stepped up back of the bag and motioned for the throw and sure enough Chandler let go of the ball, which Keenan sidestepped and let roll In the crowd back of first, allowing McShane to score from second. Bight here Is where East Chicago got the breaks, as had the umpire seen Keenan's part in the play, he would have ruled the batter out and. put McShane back on third base on account of Keer.an's Interference. This miscue sort

of upset Dalton, as he raised the next two men filling the bases with none down. AVlth the infield drawn in to cut down a man at the plate. Keenan looped an easy fly back of first, good for two bases and scoring two more runs. After Gaivln struck out, East Chiragc put on the so.uee-ze play, which worked perfectly. McShane scoring easily from third on Bahei's bunt to Dalton. Dalton finally ended the inning by setting Morgan down on strikes for the third out. East Chicago put over two more in the fifth on hits by McKula, Keenan and Morgan, mixed in with a stolen base, fi fielder's choice and one man hit by the pitcher. O Roxirke had an eAsy double play that would have retired the sld runless in this inning, but after forcing one man at second he lost control of Ma grip on the ball and in attempting to double the batter at first, the bail Flipped from his hand and rolled on the rround toward first. The-e are tho breaks that seemed to favor East Chicago, all through the game, as after this mishap Dalton hit Bahel with the bail and Morgan followed with a single over second that score1 two runs, after the eide should have been out. This sort of luck seemed to take th heart out of the Hamond team, but East Chicago all repperel up with things in their favor, scored f.lmoit at will putting over one run in each of the seventh, eighth and ninth innings. As the series now stands one game a piece, these two teams will soon get together again to play off the tie for a tig side bet. Score by innings: T..

Irondale Welter Gets Slight Shade

Denr.ie OKeefe. the Irondale welterweight contender, last Ba.turd.iy won by a shade from Johnny Griffiths of Akron at the East Chicago arena in a battle which lackod sensational rounds, but was close enough to rrove interesting for the more than 4,0f) spectators, who were at tha ringside. Griffiths showed excellent generalship and h.t O'Keefe enough that many of th ringfiders believed he deserved a irav. O'Keefe appeared to be the stronger of The two at the beginning of the fight and did all of the leading unTil the sixth round when GrifUths received a split lip in a collision with Dennie's head. The incident apparently angered Griffiths and from that time until the end of the bout he was willing to meet O'Keefe mere than half way, doing much of the leading. O'Keefe had a longer reach and it was difficult for the Akron bvy to get in. but he offered and landed a number of clean blows. The first rart of the fight was easily O'Keefe's. who was kept busy following Griffiths around the ring, landing a body blow once in a while, but gaining no decisive advantage. In the fourth round he landed a blow in the mouth which started the blood, but failed to slow up Griffiths. The second bout of the card was the one which kept the fans on toe during the entire ten rounds when Otto Wallace of Milwaukee, substituting for Bud Perriil of Gary on three hours notice, lest to Jimmy Hanlon of Denver. Wal

lace was not in condition for the fight, j

but after being floored for the count of nine in the second round came back and battled Hanlon to a standstill during the remainder of the fight. Hanlon fcught wide open and without paying any attention to defense, leading many to believe that Wallace could have won if he had been in condition. Immediately following the bout the two were rematched to appear at the East Chicago arena again next Saturday. The other bouts have not yet been decided upon, but there will probably be four other bouts. The first bout of the afternoon was easy for Tony Melichar, who took a boxing lesson from Gunboat Smith a few weeks ago at the same arena and Jack Read was knocked out in the first round. Read hit the canvas for the count of nine and the second time arose just a fraction of a second late on the tenth count. Neither of the blows appeared hard enough to put him out. Five all star bouts are promised for the show at the arena next Saturday.

pruts in both of the five-mile professional racs and ona ten-mile professional. Morn's time was the best yet made on the track although Hugh Murray, winner of the first ten-mile event, was only four seconds behind the time made by Korn in the second ten-mile race. The track was In excellent shape, hard as a brick pavement. Low places which were still damp Saturday were flooded with gasoline and baked and the wind of Sunday morning completed the work. The high wind kick ed up considerable - dust but It was never dense enough to interfere with the riders. Only two spills marred the day but neither resulted seriously to the speedstersj Following are the results of th races : No. 1 5 mile processional : Walter Korn (.Indian). Time. 4 minutes. 26. t seconds . No. 2 10 mile professional: Hugh Murray (Excelsior). Time: 9 minutes. 1".6 seconds. No. 3 5 mile stock: Paul Ande--son (Excelsior). Time: 5 minutes. 15.6 seconds.

No. 6 10 mile professional: Walter Korn (Indian). Time: 9 minutes. 6.4 seconds . Fame of the Farter track Is spreading as 1st evidenced by the distance from which riders are being drawn.

SCaTENAS

DEFEAT GARY

The Scatenas defeated the Gary A. H. A. C. team yesterday at Morris park. Features of the game were the combined batting of Meyers. B. Lynch and A. Heinke. the latter getting two 2-baee hits, scoring four of the Scatenas six runs. B. Cook and K . Spoener each getting a credit for a sacrifice a piece. Pitcher Rabenhorst struc kout 13 of Gary's batters and walked but 2 men. and had a great tendency to show first-class ball. Pitcher Szabo of Gary, with 4 strikeouts to his credit, 5 passes, shows Pitcher Rabenhorst to be one of our professionals in the near' future. Billy Helnke behind the bat for the Scatenas contracted a Charley horse by

sliding into third base safely In the

fifth inning which later netted one more run. If baseball fans would but patronize such games as this it would help much to help promote a good game every Sunday. Next Sunday's game will be announced later.
