ANSWER CHARGE OF BUTLER NINE

Coach Ray B. Mowe of Earlham college stated Wednesday that he was surprised to learn that Butler had protested the game here at Reid field last Friday. He denied that he made the statements alleged by the Butler authorities to have been made by him, relative to the decisions of the umpire being incorrect. Tiitnn Hadlev. Earlham student

answers the charges of the Butler au

thorities as follows: nf Butler was called out at

second. Tietz who played the second

sack received the ball as ne siooa on the bag and stepped off to throw to tirat Tiftr. was thrown out at first.

is the second charge. Tletz dropped

a fly to lett neia ana was mronn oui at third, the man on third reaching home long before Tietz was thrown out.On the . third charge, Earlham denies that a runner slid Into home or

that Raiford, catcher; dropped the ball in touching home out. In the last charge Butler questions Home's decision in ruling a man out at first who had reached the first bag on a passed ball without being thrown out. Raiford missed the ball but blacked it and regained it throwing to hird catching a man there. Home ruled this man out which made three outs, it then not making any difference whether the man at first was safe or not." Home, who umpired the game was a member of Indiana university nine and until recently was with the Boston Americans.

Every United States soldier is a hero, and government and people vie in their efforts to make our boys feel at home. The famous Casino of Aix in Paris has been turned over to the American - expeditionary forces and has been converted into a clubhouse for the use of American soldiers on leave from the front. Here the boys forget their troubles and have a rare good time. There is always plenty of music and the boys put in their time reading American newspapers and magazines, playing games and swapping tales of their experiences in the front line trenches.

It's beginning to look as If Jess Willard and Fred Fulton may not come together in a championship fight on the Fourth of July after all. Minnesota has definitely placed its taboo on the contest, and Minnesota seemed to have the inside track to the affair a fortnight ago. Colonel Miller, the promoter, still holds the signed articles of the two heavies and apparently hasn't given up hopes of staging the contest somewhere, sometime under some conditions. It was evident for some time that if a bout is held it will be a tenrounder. Willard doesn't want a longer mill, and he's doing the dictating. Of course, it will be ten rounds to a decision, and the championship would

Georce Camentier. the famous Eu

ropean boxing champion, has been appointed instructor at the Ecpie Mili-

tarie de-Joinville-le-nont. one of the

army physical culture schools near Paris. Carpentier has had a brilliant

career in the army ever since the outbreak of the war and has distinguished himself in every branch of the service in which he has served artillery, infantry, dispatch rider and aviation. After eighteen months as a flight sergeant he came to be regarded as one of the most accomplished aviators in France, but a long illness has kept him unfit for fighting.

The Saturday Afternoon league is all set for the opening, Saturday, with more players than can be "handled."

The Pennsv-Malleable team will

also be composed of men from the In-

dianaDolis Glove company. The team

is working out on the Exhibition park

this week.

Sam Vigran who heads the league as of yore says he must have some good "pop bottle" dodgers to umpire the games this year.

Big John Holmes is out after three bats this year. Ask him. John must do some tall batting this year to grab the bats, however, and probably will have to break a few to land a ( high percentage. "Rus" Hawekotte has taken the Natco box and will pitch for that team. Rus is right ' their with the hotstuff. ' j "Googus" Reddinghous will decorate the third sack of the Simplex nine.

Sturm and Hauk. will form batteries for Jenkins-Vulcans against the Malleable-Pennsy nine. "Bud" Hunnigar, "Ho" Hawekotte. "Milt" Pitcher, Felix Metzger of Johnson company and the I. G. C will be in the Malleable-Pennsy lineup. Bill Winters, Pete Minner, "Ev" Haas, Tom Kattler, "Googus" Reddinghous and other baseballers will handle the sphere for the Simplex. "Bo" Stein, "Wib" Sturm and many more star players compose the Jenk-ins-Vulcans along with Hauk, H. Fry, Rife and the Frye Brothers,

go with the decision. Which is probably fair enough. Granting that a competent and impartial referee is in the ring the contest would most probably develop into an interesting tussule. There's a question whether the short distance would favor Fulton or Willard. Fulton stops 'em early. Witness, Langford, Moran, Morris and Cowler. With Willard it would be matter of condition. He is slow, careful fighter, willing to wait for openings, and take his time. He has any amount of power and strength to take punishmen. But if winning depended upon a decision at the end of ten rounds, with bith men in condition, Fulton's chances should be good. He fights at a

faster clip than Willard and his speed ! would offset the champion's superior bulk and strength. Jim Thorpe, now an outfielder with the Giants, has announced that he will never play another game of football. Jim has been playing the game professionally every fall since the A. A. U. declared him a professional some years ago. Last fall he played with an Ohio professional eleven and electrified the fans by his dashing play just as was his wont back in the days when he was, the mainstay of the Carlisle college team. Thorpe was unquestionably one of the greatest foot

ball pjayers the American game ever knew. He had speed, nerve, smashing power, tackling ability and was as crafty as the craftiest It will probably be a long time before wer . are permitted to gaze upon his equal.

Who's going to stop them there Giants? . - Manager McGraw's National league entry started out like a . domicile ablaze, as the descriptive writers say. And to date their speed hasn't been seriously retarded. The Dodgers, Braves and Phillies proved reasonably soft so soft, in fact, that fears have developed that the Giants may make a runaway race of the pennant chase. A runaway race is bad enough at any time.- But this year, with the game facing the acid test, it would be a most unfortunate occurrence. And yet the New Yorkers are unquestionably the class of the old league, and with any sort of luck at all McGraw should finish in first place with many points to spare. The Giants are getting more than their share of luck, too. Look at the wonderfuLcomeback Larry Doyle has made at second base. Dave Robertson, a star outfielder, retired. Did it hurt McGraw? No, it helped him, because he picked up young Ross Young, gave him Robertson's job and every critic in the National league agrees the San Antonio boy is a much better man than Davy. Moreover, the Giants stand to lose

fewer men in the subsequent drafts than any other club in the league. On dope, then, the Giants look unbeatable. Worse still, tlie race won't even be cldse unless the Cubs or the Reds succeed in developing a sharper defense and a morepowerful offense than the present outlook promises. But this is only May and many things can happen between now and October. Maybe all the Giants will fall down and break their legs! Slim Caldwell has promised to win thirty games for the Yankees this season. Slim is the most promising young pitcher on Miller Huggins payroll.

If the Giants do succeed in making a joke of the old league campaign this summer they should come very close to fracturing a record the Cubs made back in 1906, when Frank Chance's boys won the flag with a mark of .763, winning 116 games and

losing thirty-six. No club in the major leagues before or since has ever equaled this record. To win 116 games a club must outclass the rest of the league. The Cubs of 1906 stood heads and shoulders beyond their company. Apparently the Giants of 1918 stand just as far beyond the rest of the league as Chance's record makers did. The Giants broke the consecutive game record of the Providence club in 1916. The Providence mark had stood for thirty-six years. Now they seem to be after the season's games won. record of the Cubs of 1916.

It's been a long time since Detroit has had a real first baseman, but "Swifty" Dressen seems to be filling the bill to the complete satisfaction of everyone concerned. The Tiger scouts picked Dressen as the best first baseman in the minor leagues last season. He is very fast, a sensational fielder, and a smart batsman. Manager Jennings has placed him at the top of his hittine list. Dressen was tried by the

Cards two years ago, but wasn't ready for major league company. Dressen played 153 games at first base for the St. Paul team of the American association last season and had a batting average of .291. He led the association in base running with fifty-five thefts, and promises to get away with a flattering number of steals in the American league this summer. The Egyptians embalmed the dead ones; the majors send them to the bushes. The New Haven, Conn., fight officials who staged the fifteen-round bout between Lew Tendler of Philadelphia and Willie Jackson of New York re cently lost considerable money on the show. ; The gross receipts amounted to only $6,326. The reason the officials had to dig down In their pockets to make good several hundred dollars was the big guarantee they gave the fighters each man $2,500. It is quite surprising that a bout of the magnitude of the Tendler-Jackson affair didn't play to a capacity business. Are we to say that the result reflects the fans' attitude during war?

Caused by Humors in the Blood. There is nothing more distressing than an itching, burning skin disease and upon the return of warm weather thousands of people know they' are to be tormented through the Summer months.' The blood is heat

ed with humors and acrid mat

ter and as these impurities are

forced to the surface the skin

seems to be literally on fire. At this season of the year the

Liver, Kidneys and Bowels be

come torpid, dull and sluggish and fail to perform their duty. Accumulations remain in the system and are absorbed, by the blood, producing Eczema, Tetter, Psoriasis, Acne, Salt Rheum and skin diseases of every description. Eczema appears usually with a slight redness of the skin, followed by pustules from which flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense. In Tetter the skin dries, cracks and bleeds, and is often very painful. The acid in the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, causing a dry, feverish, hardened condition and giving it a leathery appearance. Acne makes its appearance on the face in the form of pimples and blackheads, and is particularly disagreeable because of its unsightly appearance. Psoriasis, a scaly disease, comes in patches on different parts of the body. Salt Rheum

discharges a watery fluid, forming sores and producing intense itching. These and all skin disease are due to the same thing burning acids and humors in the blood, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and made pure they will continue. External applications of salves and lotions can not reach the trouble for it is in the blood. The best treatment for all skin diseases is S. S. S., a remedy that is purely .vegetable, being made entirely from roots, herbs and barks, and acts directly on the blood with a cleansing, healing effect. It neutralizes the acids and purifies the blood so that the skin, instead of being blistered and burned by the fiery fluids, is nourished by a supply of cooling, healthy blood. It goes down into the circulation and forces out every particle of waste or foreign matter, builds up the blood and relieves all skin diseases promptly and permanent ly. S. S. S. does not leave the least particle of the poison for future outbreaks, but entirely rids the blood of the cause for all skin diseases. Nothing equals S. S.
