Sporting Writers and Everybody Are In The Pink and Ready For The Tornado. NXTV YORK, June 27 Well boys, this is the blf Enuring the week there will be no more dirt pread aboul the big fight than Is beard in a divorce suit. Tou'll hear ail sorts of things that the Ice man at the Manhasset camp told the druggist. You'll hoar what Susie So-and-So heard Gui Wilson say over the phone to Who's-this. Tou'll hear that Jack Dempsey nu ben training all alonK with a sprained wrist and that Jack Kearns has bet million bucks on Carpentier. Boys, the soup this week" will be rich. There never was a big fight yet previous to which the dirt wan't spread the laat few days. The night before the fight at Reno, a mm very close to Johnson told the writer to bet on Jeff because Johnson only fighting for the short end. He said that Johnson's back was sprain ed by a fall down stairs and that the doctors had been treating him for two inys. O course It threw quite a shock into the boys standing around the Golden Hotel as did other stories, but there was nothing in them at all.

This will be a long week anyway It's going to be long f,.r the sport lin

ing public. They nave a whole week

In which to read about the fight. It's going to be long for Tex Kkkard. He has to worry about accidents, fires, tornadoes and the like.

It's going toBbe long for the flphters

too. If there should be a postpone

TAKES HARVEY

The Hammond K. of C.'s took llarvry into camp yesterday afternoon to the tune of in to . Harvey loaded up wjth several s mi-pros of the regular Harvey team. who were not f.ehedaled to play yesteiday. but notwithstanding tir.s fact ll-.lhrich pitched a whale of a game of ball letting Harvey dow n w ith six hit?, f.jur of which wre maJe in the Iat two inr.irigs iter Hammond had piled up a tonirr.&nding lead of 10 to 1.

Hammond kept up their hitting

ftreak of the la-t few games, and chalked up a total of 12 h;t, good for 15 biaes. Tommy Harle was the leading slugger with a home-run and a single out of 5 times at bat. Hilbrich made 2 singles in four trips to the plate and Buddy McLoughlin also tot 2 hits out of 5 chances. Jimmy Dillon took Danny Doyle's' place in left after the 5th inning and had a j-rct day with the stick, getting a la.s?i on balls in his first attempts and a three-bagger on his last chance. Hammond started out. with a run in the first inning, when O Rourke got cn throug-h the first baseman's error, ttole second, went to third on a short lasted ball and scored on Danny lioyle's infield out. Two ni"ie runs followed in th second. Sag Handyled off by getting hit with the ball fc.nd after he stole sr,-,,nd Tommy Karle cracked cut a Ivm.- run to deep right field. The nxt three men went rut in ordr, but in the fifth inning Hammond acored four more on singles by Hilbrich, O'Uourke. ISoyle and Handy mixed in with a .ouple of etolen bases, a balk, a r-issed ball and ene man hit w.;t.h a pitched ball . Two rr.ore markers came aeross in the ixth on a scratch hit by McLaughlin, followed with a single by Uilbrich, a base on balls to Dillon and another afe blow by Murphy, plus a couple of stolen sacks. The tenth and final run was scored in the stventn ai, two out. Harle sing-led. McLouyhlin was eaJe on the third baseman's error and Chandler smashed one through the third ssjeker too hard to handle, sending Hsj-le across. Hilbrich ended the Jnnins with a roller to third. Jimmy Dillon cracked out a threebase hit in the eighth and Ruddy Mctxiuglinn singled with two down in the ninth but neither one cf these mn were able to score. Harvey scored thair fim run in the third Inning on a three base hit to right field by Blake-more, who was allowed to register on an Infield out. In the- eighth inning, after having the game sewed up. Hilbrich and his mates let up a bit and Harvey was Quick to take advantage of the situation by putting over 3 runs on a coupie of singles, a base on balls, two erors. and a stolen base thrown in 'or g-sod measure. Harvey's last run came with two out in the ninth, when the side should have been retired. Geneva, who had forced Shay at second, was caught flat footed off of first base but in the run-down Murphy pegged wide to second and the runrser was safe. The next man followed with a clean single to ripht giving Harvey their final run of the game 8s the last hitter p TPCJ up to Chdndlr.

Babe (Ziggie). pitcher for the St. Johns, save the Columbians nine scattered hits walking- six men and only striking out two. Capt. Thompson as usual also plaved good ball having twelve put-outs on the first peg. One of the feature? of the gamf was the grandstand play made by Thompson, diving and catching a line drive twenty-five feet away from the first base. Other players for the Columbians also played si-.appy ball including Flip who made three good put-outs in center field. The St. Johns have a good baseball club having been defeated but once in ten games and that being by the Columbia A. C. Having traveled but once this season the Columbia A.

Fight fans who Journey to East Chicago tomorrow night to see the t--i round bout to be staged by the Twin Cities A. C -, between jot Lynch, bantamweight champion. and Challenger Joe Burman of Chicago, may see either fighter knocked out as early as the first round, according to Uddie Meade, manager of the cham

pion. "This is the most dangerous match in the bantamweight class," Meade said yesterday. "Lynf-h and Burman can hit with their right hands, and if either lands with a solid punch some

one is going to bump the canvas. In

addition. we respect Burman's leit hook and Lynch will not be taking any unnecessary chances. The champion is in as fine trim for this contest

as he was when he took the title away

from Pete Herman."
