ARMY CAMP TEAM TO PLAY LOCAL. MEN SATURDAY
Camp Taylor Team Has Many Old Central League Players in Line-up. Richmond baseball fans will have an opp6rtunity to see major and minor league players in action Saturday afternoon when the Camp Taylor leading baseball club stacks up against the Vigran line-up of the S. A. L., which includes the best the S. A. L. has to offer. The game will be called at 2:30 o'clock at the Exhibition park. Manager Callahan, former player on the Muskegon club . of the Central league, called "Shorty" Jessup Wednesday, asking for a game with a Richmond team this Saturday. The Camp Taylor club, he said, played at Newcastle Sunday. Jessup immediately notified Sam Vigran and the S. A. L. games were called off. Manager Callahan promised a real baseball team, and claims that the Camp Taylor team, which he is piloting leads the army teams there. His team is recognized as the best and is booking al lthe dates from that place. Several old-time ball players, who have played here in the Central league, will again bo seen in action according to a letter received by Jessup? Manager Callahan will be on hands for the game at least an hour ahead of time, eighteen men strong. He announced that he would use the following lineup: Stone, rf; regular army player; Wanzland, lb, a recruit from the strong Belleville (111.) club; Callahan, 2b, Central league;. Edington, cf. Central league; Stevenson, ss, Southern league; Rodermier. 3b, Bellville, 111.; Murray, rf, Western league; Vernus, c, Central league; and four pitchers, Schultz, formerly with the Toledo and Cincinnati Reds; Yingling, Washington Americans; Ridley, former Central leaguer; Guest, formerly with the St. Louis club, and the Central league. With the lineup that Callahan has to present, his cliam to a real ball club is well founded. Besides the club and other members of the camp two
battalion officers wil laccompany them he said. The lineup which Vigran has chosen to represent Richmond in this confab is as follows: Minner and Haweitotte, pitch; Haas, c; Holmes, lb; Reddinghaus, 2b; H. Logan, ss; J. Logan, 2b; Hewitt, If; Cooney, cf; and Clapp or Schattel, rf.

GIANTS WIN FROM BROOKLYN IN 13TH
BROOKLYN, June 20. Young's muff of Daubert's fly, with Cheny on second and two ofit, won a thirteeninning game for Brooklyn against the New York Giants hare today by a score of 2 to 1. Demaree had the Dodgers shut out until the eighth, when errors by Zimmerman and McCarthy and Olson's double tied the score. Grimes was effective except in the third, when the Giants bunched three hits for a solitary run. Cheney relieved Grimes in the ninth inning, and, although wild, held the visitors scoreless. Manager McGraw objected to a decision by Umpire Moran on a play at second base in the thirteenth, but to no purpose. Score: New York. AB. H. PO. A. E.

The Yanks of 1917 established the reputation of being the greatest sQueeze play club in baseball. They pushed over close to thirty runs by this method and won several ball gamess. This season Huggins, who was strong for the play a year ago, is managing the club that was the most successful with it in 1917. Yet it is very seldom that the Yanks have tried it and only one run has been sent over in this way. Recalling the happenings of a year ago one is inclined to ask why the play is not used more. Let Huggins answer: "I still believe the squeeze play is a great play, but under certain conditions," remarked the Yankee boss, when asked to explain the perplexing state of affairs. "A weak hitting club with good pitching can use it. But I believe it is given up too much to make hard hitters use it frequently even when games are close. We might succeed and get a run, but we are sacrificing a hitter who might drive to the fence and make two or three possible. Why stop with one run when more are possible, for the other team may come in and get two or three? "In the late innings of a close game with the opposing pitcher going well, it can be used to advantage with the score tied op a team one run behind. Under certain conditions in the early
innings it is a good play when the batsman is not likely to hit hard but is fair on a bunt. After all,, the ability
of the batsmen and the gamble on
getting one run or more furnish the answer. I have not used it frequently this year because my players can hit the ball hard, and this play is for the light hitting team. The first serious crash of war-time baseball was recorded when the Southern league voted to close up its parks this month. The Southern is
one of the oldest minor leagues in organized in 1901 and has been playing the game season in and season out ever since. It was thought to be in better financial shape than any other big minor league in the country. When a league of the standing and importance of the Southern decides to give up the ghost it must be admitted that the war has hurt baseball and hurt it seriously. It may be that the other minor leagues will be able to stagger through the season. Such leagues as have found "twilight" games profitable will undoubtedly finish their schedule. In the case of the others it is simply a matter of how much money they can afford to lose. It would not be surprising to witness the retirement of many other minor leagues by the middle of July. As for the two major leagues they are certain to play out their string of g?mes, unless General Crowder's "work or fight" ruling is applied to the players.
her own living. One of her early associates follows her and brings suspicion of crime upon her. She is
sentenced to a reformatory, but escapes from her keepers by jumping from a moving train into the waters that swirl beneath the bridge. She is rescued by a young man with lots of money, who takes her to his home and induces his mother to take the girl into the family. Again the crook who had been ber early accuser turns up at a social function and the girl, through his connivery, is suspected of a diamond robbery. The young man who has befriended her proves she is innocent and after all the girl's trials and trribulations comes the "happy ending" to climax a thoroughly good entertainment. WASHINGTON. Mabel Normand appears in "Joan of Plattsburg" at the Washington theater, Friday and Saturday. As its name indicates, the photoplay is a
modern production, sponsored by Goldwyn and written by Porter Emerson Brpwne. Yet in 6pite of the presence of the officers training camp at Plattaburg, there is as strong note of historic appeal as well. For Mabel Normand as Joan, the charter orphan, the drudge of a drear institution, sees herself the reincarnation of the immortal Maid of Orleans, Jeanne of the village' of Arc.
8A1S IT ACTED LIKE A CRAHH Coughs, colds, sore throat or bronohiy.l troubles which persist at this time of the year usually are of an obstinate character. That Is all the more reason why a truly reliable remedy like Foley's Honey and Tar Compound should be used. Mrs. Margaret Smale. Bishop, Calif., writes: "Foley's Honey and Tar is a grand remedy; more than is claimed for it. I was suffering from a cold last week and used the medicine and it acted like a charm."
