SINGLE G WINS $5,000 TROPHY IN EASY FORM Curt Gosnell Drives Cambridge City Horse to Victory in Straight Heats 'at Detroit. : .' DETROIT, Mich., July 28. The Chamber of Commerce $5,000 stake for 2:07 class pacers, with fourteen starters the largest number in its history proved easy picking for Single G, the sensational Indiana horse, yesterday. Gosnell drove the son of Anderson Wilkes three fast miles to win in straight heats but never had to urge his mount and easily could have set a new record for the stake had It been necessary In order to capture the prize. Comes With Rush. In the first heat of the big race, Hal Boy, Hal S. and Camelia were in front, in the order named, until the last turn of the track, when Gosnell, who had held Single G in fourth place, came through with a rush and finished eased up. Single G took the lead starting the second heat, yielded it for a time to Hal S, went ahead when ready and was half a length in front of Judge Ormond at the wire, the lat ter coming out of the bunch under the whip to get second place by a neck from Rastus. In the third heat, Single G was always in front. Owned by Barefoot. Single G Is owned by William Barefoot of Cambridge City, and was piloted to victory by the well-known trainer. Curt Gosnell. Last summer, after Single G had showed that he was a pacer of class, Mr. Barefoot was approached by a well-known Detroit horseman who offered him $7,500 for the colt. The offer was turned down and the wise one shook their heads and said that the Cambridge City man was making a serious mistake in not letting him go. Barefoot had bred and raised the young son of Anderson Wilkes and knew him better than any one else. Single G won $5,600 during the season and went into winter quarters the champion 4-year-old pacer over a half-mile track. In June Single G was shipped to the North Randall track to be prepared for his campaign down the Grand Circuit. After a few workouts the horseman at the Cleveland suburb saw that he was a great pacer, and while on a visit to the track. Barefoot was asked to put a price on the bay stallion. This he refused to do. Baseball Standings NATIONAL LEAGUE. Won. Lost. Pet. Philadelphia 49 37 ".570 Brooklyn 48 40 .545 Chicago 43 43 .500 Pittsburg 41 44 .500 Boston 44 44 .500!

and Athletics
ASKS HIGH GUARANTEE Somerville . has made a ' proposition to the S. A. L. for a booking at Athletic park. The proposal as put to the league by the Ohio team is a trifle high, and if they insist on that figure the S. A. L. probably trill turn down the offer. -, With fast factory teams out of Dayton, Indianapolis and Cincinnati which could be booked for a much less sum, officers of the league cand hardly see their way clear to give Somercille a large guarantee. CUFF DALE RESORT READY FOR OPENING An Informal reception, with music and refreshments, will mark the open ing, Thursday evening, of the Cliff Dale Auto club house, opposite Cedar Springs hotel, according to the announcement of Louis Emmons today. Invitations have been mailed to members of the club and many of the members have signified their intention of attending the event. It is probable that more than two hundred persons will be present. The electric lights in the club house and those stationed at different points on the veranda and around the outside of the building, were turned on last evening for the first time. The turning on of the lights resulted in a brilliant illumination which entirely satisfied the persons who had held anticipations regarding the success of the system installed. BOOK LEWISBURG. The Red Sox yesterday booked at Lewisburg for Sunday's game. Lewisburg has a fast team and the Sox will have to step some to get away with the game. PLAY IN WESTVILLE. Toney's Feds will play in Westville Sunday. The Feds are made up for the most part of the cream of the high school ball tossers, and should give a good account of themselves. War, as a hazardous occupation does not seem to have much on the bike racing game. Eighteen years ago Bobby Walthour became a professional biker, and this is what has happened since then: He has broken his right collar bone 27- times; broken his left collar bone 18 times, suffered rib fractures 30 times; has had more than 40 stitches taken in both legs; has more than 100 body scars as the result of bruises; he has about 60 stitch marks in his face, forehead and head as the result of sewed up wounds; has broken six of the ten fingers on his hands; has been pronounced dead twice and "fatally injured" at least six times. "And I'm still able to do a bit of racing now and then" said Walthour. "I've been mighty lucky during my 18 years as a racer. I've been in more than 2500 'spills' and never once have suffered a broken leg. If I had, my career would have ended. A biker can race even if his arms are in a sling, but if he breaks a leg, it's all off. He's through for good. Figures in Spill. "My most peculiar spill? Well, I guess it happened in Leipsig (Germany). A bunch of riders went down in front of me. I was so close to them that I couldn't steer clear. I hit the bunch and down I went. That's the last thing I remember until I came to in America four weeks later. "However, the peculiar part of that spill Is that after I hit the boards I got up, climbed onmy bike and although I had a broken collar bone, two broken fingers, a nasty gash in my head and a ten inch rip in my leg, I finished and won the race which had only about six laps to go from the place where the spill occurred. "I don't remember a thing about getting up. My memory was a blank from the time I catapaulted from the saddle until I 'came to' nearly a month later in my home in New Jersey. "Is there very much money in the racing game now?" Walthour was asked: "No, not in America" he answered. "In the old days a good biker could make from $12,000 to $20,000 a year. In those days a fellow worked on a percentage basis. There always was good money in it then. On July 4th, 1914, I rode an afternoon race near Boston and got $1750. That night I entered another race and got $1100. That made a total of $2850 for one day's work. What I did the other racers also' did. NEW YORK, July 28. Eddie Plank deserves the title of the greatest lefthanded pitcher that ever lived. For fifteen years 1901 to 1914 the wonderful southpaw was the mainstay of Connie Mack's Athletics. For fifteen years he pitched the kind of baseball that helped the athletics to win a large flock of pennants and a number of world's titles. And now in his forty-first year, and his sixteenth in baseball, he is the pitching sensation of the Federals. Cast adrift by his old boss, he connected with a job in the new league, and is back at his old trick of rolling up a huge winning percentage. "The most amazing part of Plank's work this year is the fact that he is pitching to batters who are new to him. He hasn't the benefit of the experience gained in other years to aid him. He doesn't know the strength and the weakness of the batters who face him, as he did in the American

MAXWELL'S LINEUP CONTAINS LEAGUERS
Six of the Dayton Maxwells, who meet the locals at Athletic pary Sunday, have seen action in league ball this season. Foley, shortstop, and Hall were with Saginaw until the league went bad. Povey, right fielder, and Sample, catcher, were with the Dayton Central league , team, and Bartell, third baseman, was on the pay roll of the South Atlantic league. Baines, a catcher, was with the fast everland aggregation of Toledo., The Maxwell's come well recom mended as regards talent, and one of the best games of the season should result. Motorcycle Notes From Everywhere A man who is not afraid to speed up on a motorcycle is in great demand at Carrlck, Pa. Speedy automobilists have aroused the Carrick citizens and they are willing to pay a speed cop to chase the automobiles and force them to observe the local speed laws. A motorcycle service squad is one of the features of the service accord ed to owners of Studebaker automobiles in Columbus, Ohio. The FourthChestunt Auto Repair Company has found that the power-driven "two wheeler" gets its service man to Studebaker owners who are in trouble quickly, and it has been the means of keeping Studebaker users entirely satisfied. TO PLAY SHAMROCKS. The Tipperary Specials will play the Shamrocks at Natco park Sunday morning. Hill and Bell will be the battery for the Tipperary Specials. RECOVERS FROM KICK. CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., July 28. The friends of Miss Agnes Connell, who recently received series injury from being kicked by a horse, are pleased to learn that she is making a satisfactory improvement. league. He must learn as he goes. He must pit the old southpaw whip, absolutely unaided, against the Federal league clouters. And he has done so successfully. Plank is one of the very few lefthanders who has no eccentricities. He has been normal in his conduct, a gentleman an the ballfield and off, and all through the sixteen years of his major league career he has graced the game by his presence. Whole Family Plays. The last of the Delahantys has passed from the major leagues, and for the first time in nearly twenty-five years no member of the famous baseball family is listed among the big league star. There were five Delahanty brothers, all trained on the sand lots in Cleveland, and every one of the five found his way into the big show, remaining there long enough to add lustre to the baseball fame of the family. Ed Delahanty was the first brother to enter the big leagues., He blossomed into a major league star in the late eighties, and from then on until 1903, when he met a tragic death by falling from a bridge, he ranked as one of the greatest batsmen the game ever produced. He hung up clouting records that remain until this day. Tom was the second brother to play major league baseball! Joe Delahanty was the third. He played with St. Louis for a number of years. Jim was the fourth to enter the big leagues, and Jim lasted a long time as a major, leaguer. He was a star for the Detroit Tigers frtr many years, and ranked as one of the best infielders in the business. In 1914 Jim jumped to the Feds. The other day he was released to the Colonial league, the minor organization of the Federals. Frank was the fifth Delahany brother to play in the majors. He was with Cleveland for a time and later played with the Yankees. NEW YORK, July 28. Realizing that the public likes to be amused at times, the boxing promoters are talking about a Jess Willard-Battling Levlnsky match for Labor day. A match between "Willard and Levinsky just now promises to be the last word in pugilistic burlesque. 'Levinsky is somewhat shy of being six feet tall, and weighs around 170. Willard is six feet six Inches tall and weighs well over 250. In other words, Levinsky, a third-rate . pug, would be "spotting" the champion about seven inches in height, eighty pounds in weight and about 10 inches in reach. Why don't the promoters frame up a Leach Cross-Jess Willard match? That would be even funnier than the proposed Levinsky-Willard go. WANTS SECOND CHANCE. Johnny Coulson, who used to wear the bantam crown upon his dome, still yearns for another chance against Kid Williams, but in the meantime Johnny is busy gathering in the shekels in real estate operations in Chicago. Johnny says he has about $90,000 left of his ring earnings, and by judicious Investments has accumulated about $20,000 more. TOWN TURNS OUT. The whole town of Hastings, Ont., and 320 above the town's population turned out to see a la crosse game played recently. Hastings has a population of 700 and the attendance at the match was 1,020.
POSTAL DEPOSITORS REFLECT MOVEMENT OF ITALIAN TROOPS
Almost every important battle or a turn in the tide of affairs of Europe has its effect on the postal savings department of, the Richmond postoffce. When the Italians suffer . a defeat, the next day finds a goodly number of Italians making application at the postal savings window to withdraw their accounts. - .. v . , WhenHhe United States, sent a note to Germany and chances for .implication of this country in the European conflict became a little more evident to some of the local foreigners, the withdrawals told the story. Last month the foreign colony felt the 6tress of the war more than ever before and as a result a decrease of $500 resulted in the receipts" of the local savings department, according to Henry Deuker, head of the savings department. "A reaction seems to be setting in now," said Mr. Deuker. "and the foreigners are again gaining confidence. This month will show that a gain has been made." ... Many of the withdrawals have been made by foreigners and the money sent to the old country to aid friends and relatives. CHICAGO WEEPS Continued From Page One. ship and operation' , of the Eastland and stated that before 6 o'clock this evening indictments would be voted by the grand jury charging manslaughter or .conspiracy to overload the steamer. Raise Sunken Hull. Plans went forward today for the raising of the sunken hull of the steamer, which is believed to hide the fate of possibly 507 persons who are missing according to the latest revision of figures by Western Electric Company officials. The official report today contained the names of 824 dead whose bodies have been identified. There were five unidentified bodies in the second regiment armory morgue. Adding these to the missing, it was figured the probable total death toll of the tragedy would be 1,336. While police, firemen, divers and volunteer workers labored about the sunken vessel, a high board fence shielded them from the gaze, of the curious. The barrier was constructed during the night completely surrounding the section of the river which holds the death ship. Street cars were permitted to cross the Clark street bridge but passengers who thronged the cars just for a sight of the scene of the catastrophe spent their car fare for nothing. The special federal grand jury ordered by Federal Judge Landis was ready to begin its part of the Eastland investigation tomorrow morning. With Secretary of Commerce William C. Redfield in personal charge of the government's inquiry and with the county grand jury .'pledged to turn all of its evidence over to. the federal au thorities, concrete results were predicted as the result of the activity Of the cabinet member and his aides.
