CHICAGO

GREAT MILL

ATE.

LAST NIGHT

Boxlar fans bd their first glimpse of Midget Smith in action lat night and the- "second Terry McGovern" lived up to advance notices by shading Jo Burman in ten slam-bang rounds at East Chicago. The Midget didn't let the West Side !antam get started. He assumed the aggressive from the start. thereby taking the play away from Joey, had the best of the infighting and outpointed Burman in five of the rounds. Three stanzas went to Burman and the other two were fought on even terms. The New York Midg.'t made a big hit with the fans here, who had rather looked for Burman to explode Smith's reputation, which was based largely on his knockout of Jack Sharkey, well known to these parts. TWAS CiRKAT MILL It waa a battle well worth the trip t. riyams' open-air arena. While there were no knockdowns, the two 1 title fellows were at it hammer and iouks all the way, and after the fracas was over It was necessary to make some repairs to one of Midget's eyes which was cut during a heated mixup. Burman spilled plenty of claret from his nose during the battle.

Rurraan's loneer reach stood him

in good stead and he did good execu

tion with his left, but the Midget rpcatedley worked his way in close and did good work at body fighting. The sum-final was a. battle for blood. In this event. Mike Dundee, the Rock Island mauler, made a chopping block of Gene Watson of Frisco, but the coast boxer assimilated enough punishment to have stopped a dozen less sturdy warriors and was on his leet at the finish. In the sixth and ninth rounds Drni- . -e had Gene stretched out on the ropes and It looked as though Watson was done for the night, but he surprised the fans and Dundee by remaining on his feet and sticking to hiw guna until the end. DOUAVCHRISTIAN TAME.

The only tame bout of the nig!it was--

the ten-rounder petwecn Bud Christian and Red Dolan. Bud is a Chicago boy, while the redhead hails from sunny New Orleans. Neither did any serious damage, but what honors were to be gained from the meeting went to Dolan by a shade. Young Belgium of East Chicago shaded Kid Torky of Kensington irt a hxrdfought grudge battle and Young Rocco and Andy Williams, both of Chicago, went eight rounds to a draw In the curtain raiser. It was announced at the ringside that Middleweight Champion Johnny Wilson and Harry Greb will meet at the East Chicago arena August 16. A good-sized crowd ra.w the bouts, despite the absence of the originally scheduled Jack Sharkey-Young Montreal go from the card.

WILL BENCHING OF DOME BUSH SOLVE TIGERS' INFIELD AND OUTFIELD PROBLEM?

N-N -

. ?

K. C. TEAM TO

CHCAG0 HEIGHTS

Weet Hammond Maroons Sunday, July 24. Game called at 2:30 p. m. sharp. All Indications point towards much competition. "Speed" Llnd and Romeo will do the twirling for the Triangles. Besides the rfgular Itneup Burns and Klrmpnrr will also play with the Triangles. So turn out ye baseball fans and see what the boys will do.

The sudden sl'.ppine of thepeppery little veteran. Dome Bush, in recent weeks has hit Detroit a

tough blow. It is believed certa -

that Cobb will nave to rum up r new infield without Bush if he hopes to keep the Timers in the race. While he hasn't an mfielder of Donie's regular speed at hand, there's a srood chance that he will take a chance -n Ira Flapjtead. Flapstead. who startled the league with his hittine, is a pood infielder. With Ira. Harry Heilman. Bobby Veach. Chick Shorten and himself for outfield duty, Cobb has had a surplus of eardeners. all rood hitters. Shifting Ira t-- the Infield will solve this problem at least.

Arrangements have been made to accomodate all the fans who wish to accompany the Hammond K. of C. tram to Chicago Heights tomorrow bfternoon as Manager Meimlfach h.s

rrifraged two Hn busm with plenty of comfortable seats and everybody desiring 10 make the trip is ren.uMed to meet at the club rooms ort Sibley street hot later tlitin 1:13 p. m. when the last bus load will leave. The fare will be Tic for the rund trip and as tin's ia a sptcla! rate, belna- 'more reasonable than the regular Sunday fare, It is thought that a big crowd will turn out and help give th local team a lift In their struggle 1th Chicago Heights, who gave them such a stiff argument In their first battle several weeks agro. While. Hammond Is plajinrj the Heights. South Chicago will engage in a tilt with the strong team from Harvey and should the Harvey crowd slip South Chicago a bumping and Hammond beat Chicago Heights. Hammond will then co Into first nlire In

the K. of C. Suburban 1-ague. Several members of the Hammond team were out for practice Thursday evening and the way some of them expressed themselves they fed satisfied that they rid their systems of all the bad baseball that they possibly could lajtt Sunday and a a result they appear fairly confidtnt of putting up a hotter article of ball against Chicago Heights who. they expect to trim, prodding Htlbrlch. who is slated to pitch.

J is In his usunl good form. ! In the last game that Hilbrich work- ! ed against the Heights, lie struck out (eleven mn and let them down with j five hits, while Hammond pounded his j opponent for nine blows, including a

couple of two-base hits. The score or the first' game was 4 lo 0 In Hamniuiiu i lavor iut tomorrow tilt promises to be even closer as the Heights have strengthened their club In several places since the occasion of their last meeting on June 5 at Harrison park.

Lauerman Is still under the care of the doctor and it is a question whether he will be able to play Sunday. While his loss is keenly felt, Moll is doing fine in the backstop position.
