Harvey (no league game scheduled) Th Hammond K. of C's have Just about recovered from the trimming they received at the hands of the Hammond Vets last Tuesday and they will be back in their fighting to maintain their hold on first place In the K. of C Suburban league on next Sunday, when they stack up against their ancient " rival 3. the scrappj outfit from East Chicago. Whenever Hammond and East Chicago hook up In any kind of a game, be it base ball, football, basketball or any other sport, there is always sure to be plenty of excitement and next Sunday will be no exception. In fact, Harry Fierock captain and third baseman of the East Chicago club has already made the crack that his team didn't care near so much about losing all the rest of their games Just as long as they can take Hammond into camp next Sunday. That East Chicago has a bunch capable of going out and piling up the runs is evidenced by the strong light they put up against South Chicago, the team that beat Ham mond, 10 to 2. East Chicago scored nine runs off the South Chicago tribe and had the game sewed up until the eighth Inning -wrhen their pitcher -weakened and permitted the visiting team, to overcome a four run lead. However, according to Johnnie McShane, the East Chicago catcher, this will not happen sgaln next Sunday as he swears that he wrill hold up his pitcher against Hammond If Its the last thing In the world he does and further states that he -will make him pitch like he never pitched before. Hammond, on the other hand, are just about sore enough over their defeat last Tuesday' that they will be able to lick their weight in wild cats when they take the field against the fast stepping bunch from East Chicago.

The Vets in last Tuesday's game placed themselves in a position with the leading clubs of the county when they defeated the K. of C. aggregation at Harrison Park, which credits them with a total of five victories and only two defeats. Next Sunday's lineup will be practically the same as that against the K. of C.s on Tuesday. Meyers at first and North at short, Metcalf on third base. Baron in center field, Moll filling right field with Callahan at left field. McCarthy will hold the keystone sack and Hilton will do. the twirling with King receiving. The batting order will be the same, as stated above. It has been reported that the Griffith team has made a few additions to their lineup which they hope and will hold the Vets down, but the Vets are confident and feel they have a team which will continue in victory for them in future games. There will be bus accommodations for the fans who desire to accompany the Vets to Griffith. The rate of fare will be small, making It possible for a large number of fans to accompany them. The bus will leave from the Colonial Sporting Store on State st. at 1 p. m. All Vet fans are earnestly invited to accompany the team. The Veterans of Foreign "Wars very much appreciated the loyal support given them by fans who attended the Cresterton game at Chesterton last Sunday and who were present at last Tuesday's game with the K. of C.s of Hammond, and it Is their desire to do all In their power to enable the fans to go with them in their future games for a nominal fee.

The Crystals took the lead in the first inning by scoringtwo runs and another one in the second Inning. But that didn't worry the Shamrocks, for they came back with one in the second inning, one in the fourth, onein the sixth, and one In the seventh, tailing the lead on the Crystals and holding them down till the finish.

TO FIGHT AT SEATTLE SOON Jimmy Clabby, middleweight prize flg-hter of Hammond, -xvho has been sojourning in Australia for the past seven years, will fight in two weeks at Seattle, according to a telegram received by his father. Jimmy does not state who his opponent will be. It Is presumed he will come back home after the fight. Jimmy should be in big demand in this country now and in a position to pick off some good money. For the next year he can fight every month if he cares to and it is certain that Lake county flight fans would be glad of the chance to see him perform in the East Chicago arena. SAYS PHILLY HAS REAL BALL TEAM 'v:. v. y . . v. BT DAVlrf J. WALSH. International News Service Sports Editor. NEW YORK, June 2. Although skeptics still abouxd in plentiful numbers, the Philadelphia Athletics can take consolation rom the fact that they have "sold themselves to one man - whose opinions are worth slightly more than a dime a dozen. He is Col, T. L. Hmton, vice president of the New York Yankees, who will tell any button hole maker in the audience that the Athletics are a ball club. 'It looks to me as though Connie has what he has been shotting for these last seven years," the Colonel declared today. "I will admit that I thought the Athletics were just flashing when they started to win games with the same. regular In the early -weeks of the season. But I have had to revise my estimate. "Our club Is going well right now, but It had to step fastest and get the best pitching we have had for some time to take two out of three from the Athletics. Indeed, if wasn't for the fact that Mays exercises eome kind of a mystic spell over the Mackmen. it is doubtful whether we would have pulled the series out. Another thing you don't want to forget is that the Athletics were -unable to use Rommel during the series and that fellow can beat us almost any time he starts. Yes. the Athletics of 1922 have proved themsleves a real ball club." Just what had worked this transformation In a team that has been a hopeless tail ender- for seven seasons? The writer has his own opinion on the subject but was anxious to get the Colonel's viewpoint. It was short and snappy like an actor's overcoat. -Bing miler." We were somewhat surprised, having braced our journalistic feet for a lenghty dissertation upon the of Pep Young and Doc Johnston to the infield defense, the pitching of Rommel, Heimbach, . Harris, Hasty, Moore and others, and the consequent improvement In team morale. "That stur all helped, of course, quoth the Colonel. "Getting Young and Johnston allowed Connie to shoot Dykes to the left side of Oie InfieJd, which was very weak and certainly the pitchers have carried the club over some rough spots, but Mack has fooled us all because he guessed right on two ball players and one of them Is Miller. "We thought he made a bad deal when he gave -up Dugan for Miller and Acosta, but what player could he get more valuable . than l man who not only bolstered a rather weak cutfleld defense but who hit .400 fdr the first six weeks of the season and whose home runs to date total 12? I regard Miller as the main answer to the present position of the Athletics." SPEED ORGY KILLS DOZEN SPECIAL TO THE T1MES1 INDIANAPOLIS. Ind.. June 2.

JOE LYNCH WINS GO WITH MIDGET SMITH
By HARRY XEWMAN NEW YORK. June 2. Staging a whirlwind finish, Joe Lynch last night defeated Midget Smith in twelve of the best rounds of boxing seen in these parts in some time. For the first half of the Journey it was all Smith. The tiny scrapper carried the fight to his lean opponent and several times had Lynch reeling, with right hand smashes to the jaw. Also in the first five rounds Smith out-boxed Lynch. . It was not until the sixth round that Lynch assumed the lead. Joseph found the range and kept poking his long left into Smith's face Once he got the Midget gclng Dack a mortality of a dozen lives and injuries to half a hundred or more., according to a bulletin just issued by the Hoosler State Automobile Association. "The time has come for plain speaking on this matter," declares the bulletin. "Speed on the highways on Sundays or holidays when these highways are thronged with motor traffic, is nothing short of suicidal. In fact, it is potential murder, because there are always Innocent . victims of the foolhardy auto driver. , "The trouble is that yau who read this alwaj-s think in derogatory terms of the other fellow and fail to bring this right 'home to your heart. "First pluck the mote from thine own eye.' said' one o fthe prophets of old and this Injunction holds good today. In short, govern your own actions along the lines of safety and caution and If everyone learns this lesson without first going through the hospital, through the morgue or a to a local cemetery before it is finally impressed on them, i'-en this world will be a more EX-SCHOOLMATES

HE" BALL LOT he kept plastering the little fellow with straight right hand smashes to the face. It was a. great fight and many thought that Smith was entitled to a draw because of 'his big early lead. However, the scrappy Lynch continued to improve, while Midget appeared to slow up, although uc was a dangci oils' kid all the wpy. The last round was a furious af fair, both boys Intent on landing a knockout. They both started trad ing right hand punches from the gong. Lynch appeared stronger and had the better of the exchanges. Smith weighed 120 while Lynch scaled 119 pounds. Ideal place from a. motoring stand point." The bulletin also calls attention to the fact that the auto assooclatlon Is striving constantly to make the highways safer by the erection of danger signs' and direction signs. "But what good do these signs do where we have erected them " is the query put forth. "In view of the fact that in many sections of the state where Memorial Day accidents occurred warning signs had been erected by this association and the accidents happened anyway, it ap pears that the cause of aU these accidents lies in the so-called brains of the participating drivers. "In one section near Indianapolis the Hoosler Motor . club erected boards four feet square warning of a dangerous intersection and the painted boards carried skull and cross bones veritable death heads to warn drivers on two main cross roads of the deadly blind corner ahead of them. In spite of this a car from- the east and a car from the north came together running at full speed nnd a third car from the MEET IN BIG SHOW
