HERE TIN CUES HOW SOUNDS THIS?

SPECIAL TO THE TMES1 WHTTIXG. lad, Augr. 13. The Po.r:nes tried to rla.y som? games with "-me of the loral3 around Indiana Harbor and Hammond, but that seems ai-rn-. t impossible, to finish a game with 'hfie teams as they would rather start an argument to force the visitor off the f'Hid, which v as the experience of the Polarines the last two Barnes played it Indiana Harbor and at Hammond. These Two games were with the K. of C. teams of th'se. two cities, for which the Fo:arines received the blame for quittiny. These two teams Elayed a game between themselves and to this day hard feeling exists between the two teams mentioned. "What chance have the Polarines, when the two teams claim that they both received a raw deal, when ths game was plarod and owned up that both were not playing a fair game. Stop your side bets and we will have clean baseball.

In last Sunday's same the Harbor club claims that the preat Morgan pitched great ball. He was nicked for more safeties than Simon and If the Harbor aggregation will look at their score book If they have- one, they will 6re that Morgan wae not as elective as they Claim. The Twin City team claim that Pickett, who officiated the game, was an official umpire, which he Is not. The Polarines. who have walloped the Earbor lads once this season can do It again and do it with ease, su anytime that they are ready to play the OH City club on a neutral ground they know what to do.

GRIFFITH HUMBLES GARY J. A. C. GRIFFITH, Ind.. Aug. 13 The Griffith Colts defeated the J. A. C. from Gary last Sunday by the score of 7 to ; at the Griffith ball rark.

White Set For Moran Battle Chicago Lightweight Realizes He Has Hard Task On His Hands.

Charlie White, the Chicago light "e ght. is httle concerned over the fight next Saturday at East Chicago in so far as It voncerns Moran. but as a sterp:r.g stofte for a return match with Chamrion Benny Leonard it. assumes sr at importance and w ill make Whitu step his best in an effort to win a Jccisivo victory. "Vheu fought Pal Moran in the southland ho admits that he wasn't in the best of condition because he held the New Orleans boy perhaps a lUMe too lig-htly. Combined with this Mas the fact that Mc ran was fighting at h-nw: among frionds and naturally it wa3 easy for White to get the worst cf the argument if the Xe wOrlean fans could give it to him. White has been thinking it all ov.-r and is taking no . nances n losing this bout, but predicts that he can stop Moran before the 10 rounds are finished. Although White was knocked out byLeonard at Benton Harbor on the Fourth of July, there is no doubt that for a time he had the champion considerably worried. He is obsessed with the idea that some day he will be the champion l;ght weight and believes that he is now In condition to meet Leonard and take his measure. He cari not get a return match with Leonard, however. If he does not put Moran out of the way and that is the rhicf reason wry next Saturday's fight will be a battle from start to finish.
