GRftY'S DEFEAT FINALJPST Genre's Pitching and Frequent Bobbles by Kenney's Infield Cause Loss of Third by 4 to 1 Score. Popkins Proves Chief Offender in Erring LineFrost Pitches Good Ball, Striking Out Seven. BY KARL ALLISON. Inability of Richmond players to hold the ball, making wild heaves, and failure to get to Gehre, lost the fifth and deciding game to Connersville yesterday at Athletic park by a 4 to 1 score.

The team that has been playing for Richmond all summer could not have lone any worse. All Connersville had to do was to lay one down or hit to the Infielders and they did the rest.

Gehre got eleven by the strike out route and Frost seven. , Scores in Two Frames. Connersville scored in the fifth and ninth innings, Heisman crossing the pan in the fifth and Chapman, Heisman and Ruckstuhl coming over in the ninth.

Afterthoughts in Press Stand

Popkins was the leading hitter of the day with a batting average of .500. He met one of Genre's fast ones in the firth inning for a beautiful double to left-center. Jack Frost is no "frost," and he's not the shortest man in the world by a long shot. Novy took care of his .end. ' Manager Dick Kenney in speaking of the game: "Wasn't it fierce; that bunch ought not beat us one game in ten." Guess this must have been the tenth, Dick. Connersville could certainly lay 'em down to a fareyewell. Mr. Red Ireton was the best shoveler of .the bunch and was nominated by unanimous vote to shovel out the mud hole in the box. That fly ball decision that Novy mussed was very bad. Gehre is good enough for a thorough try out with Richmond.

Quick on the Trigger With a Snap-Shot Eye THE crack trapshooter has to be a man with steady nerves and muscles absolutely under control always ready, at the sudden jerk of a string to swing his gun into place and bring down his clay pigeon. This means trained, not to the minute, but to the split-second. He takes no chances with his nerves. We present the names of some of these crack shots who smoke Tuxedo. They like to smoke; but they take no chances on a tobacco that might "throw them off."

The Perfect Tobacco for Pipe and Ctg

is purposely made to give you all the benefits of the highest grade smoke. It is made from the very finest tobacco Kentucky grows ripe, mellow, sweet and mild old Burley, aged right up to perfection-day. Then treated by the original "Tuxedo Process," which takes out the sting, makes Tuxedo smoke cool

and slow, and guarantees that it cannot bite your tongue. Tuxedo has had many imitators; none has ever equalled it in sheer quality and smoking-valuc.
