Hammond, Ind.. Sept. IS. Sporting Editor Tims: W would like to maka a ferr comment or H. G. SylTester's article, appearing In Saturday's Lake County Time, in connection with the Ll&er-ty-Scatena ball grame and the fairness of lima. Not knowing Mr. Sylvester, ths writer however believes he din not follow the game closely at last not as close as he wishes it understood. For his own info' wii; say that no Scatena runner had a chance to steal third base In the first 1:ininr. but that is really getting away fr m the main argument. Ground rules are that a runner should follow th bases, also it is not probable tint they will be kicked out into centre field. There is no use in talking like a little boy. Tou mention the regretabie a'-t or ur first baseman. "Whether th'.s was an accident or not the writer hesitates la saying, as we admit it looked bad, but such accidents have been known to occur, furthermore, as you say. Love was forewarned and was not touched. However, you whi an ardent r.dmirer of clean basebai; Take pride in boasting of the true fa'"t that our runner got a punch in the nose. Should this have happened? Our first baseman denies that it was intentional, but you may be sure hs wii severely reprimanded by th manager. VThy not make mention of the fsct t'-.at Scatena's umpire had more jr.terest in the game than fair sportsmanship. Why not bring out the fact that th:s same umpire treated our third baseman the same way Mr. Love treated our first baseman. There was absolutely no cause far this. Let me also say that you have no 4--a. or what clean sport is. Po you know that this was nothing but a grudge game. The Liberty played the Scatena early this season and got a good beating. Went home, said nothing about it. because despite the guarantees, they got all the dirty deals they expected. We played them football last season. Hardly a man on the Liberty team didn't get what you so highly respect, a punch on the nose. It may1 be the popular decision with the f-catena crowd that they get a ml dirty deal. j We will leave it up to the impartial! police of the Standard Steel Car Co.. whom were forced to intervene at j several times. As tr a return game, i personally I think it impossible, as
the Liberty would not again travel to the Morris Park and the Scatena ball dub are. barred from the Standard Steel ball dlajmond by the Car Co. LIBERTY ATHLETIC ASSN.

Why So Many Exchanges? WHY are exchanges built at so many different points in the same city?" a
subscriber asks. There are two basic reasons for multiplying exchanges. The pair of wires connecting your telephone runs right to your Central office. If there were only one central office in a big city the length of subscribers lines to that single exchange would make the initial cost and the upkeep and repair cost prohibitive. The other reason is technical. Every operator at a switchboard has to be within arm's length of all the numbers. She must be able to connect you with any number asked for. The reach of the normal operator limits the capacity of the switchboard to 10,000 lines- Hence, as the city grows, new exchanges must be built.
These are the fundamental reasons for multi-
exchange development.

Pal Moran is Confident of Winning Pal Moran. the New Orleans lightweight, has arrived In Chicago with apparently the greatest confidence, that he will be able to make more than a& ordinary showing again3t the world's lightweight champion when he meets with Leorard m-i Saturday at the East Chicago arena. At the same tim we hear that Leon-a-f is doing some rea; training for this bout, evidently concludtrff that any one who can win from Charlie "White Is worthy of consideration. Moran did put up a great battle against White In the East Chicago .'irena a few week, past but hi victory was not entirely one-sided. Maran excelled in foot work, dancing around much faster than white and als landing many more blows than the Chicago boy. but he really came out cf the battle marked more than did "White. White landed some heavy wallops but the little Orleans boy managed to weather them without much trouble. shSwing- that he is not easily P"t away. The place where Moran fell down when he fought White and It is probable that he will have the same trouble against Leonard, was In his power to punch. He has plenty of speed but his blow do not carry the necessary steam for a knockout., Leonard on the other hand does have enough steam for a knockout as he very ahly demonstrated against White and will probably be able to stand a number of Moran' light blows without damage. It "will take a real blow to make him kiss the canvas. Since these ro the facta It Is apparent that Moran will try to keep well away from Leonard' sleep producer but will try for a knockout early Jn the bont. He "will find a much different opponent than he found in "White lnce Leonard will match the Iew Orleans boy for speed and has the reputation of having the best head ot any fighter In the ring. From all in
dications there is little hope that Mo-j

IIV IT. C. H MILTON" rSTAFF CORRESPONDENT I. fi . SERVICE! NEW YOIUC, Sept. 2". Thirteen games are left on the schedule of the Cleveland Indians, now leading the American leaarue. If they win seven and lose six which is about as bad as anyone could figure their strength, they will finish the season w-ith S" Karnes won and 5? loyt. To beat that the White Sox will have to win eight of their remaining ten games, while the Yankees will have t" win every one of thoir remaining nine contests. In the National Ltague eight gams are left on the, Brooklyn schedule, if they do no better than break even, they will finish with 91 won and lost. The Giants have twelve games to play. Thy will have to win eleven of them to beat the Robins in the event of a fifty-fifty split for tne Brooklyn crowd. Sixteen contests are left for the Reds. They would have to take all of them to win over the Dodgers, ignoring the Giants' chances. Therefore it may he figured as practically certain that the Indians and Dodgers will meet in the 132" world's st-ries, although extraordinary thin may happen to the Indians, in view of the fact that they have left series with the White Sox.
POSTOFFICE TEAM FINALLY WINS Th baseball team representing trio Hammond Postoffice, finally won a pame from The Times, the score being S to 7. The mail carriers came out considerably loaded, determined to win the third game, while it was impossi'ole to raise much enthusiasm among The Time?' players and. oniy five came out to play, thereby necessitating pressing four of the spectators (which almost emptied the grands) into the game. However, th game was wen plavei and not until the eighth Inning did it look as If the mail' clerks had a chance of winning at the beginning of the 8th the count was 6 to 4 In fav?r of the printers, who lead in the scoring up till that frame, then the clerks scored 3 runs, putting them
one to the f-od. The Times came! back 1n thir half and tied the. score.'
