LEAGUE LEADERS TO GET GOOD FIGHT Saturday afternoon ' at Exhibition Park the Natco and Malleable teams of the S. A. L. will play the opening game of the double header. In the second game the Stmplexers will attempt to show the Jenkins-Vulcan crew a few fine points of our national sport. . In the middle of June these two teams met and the Natco and Simplex teams came out on top. The Natcos won by the score of 7-1 but the Simplexers had a hard time getting away with their victory, 2-1. Sturm allowed the Slmplexers but two hits. In the first game of the S. A. L. season the Natco team won from the Malleable squad In a runaway, 8-1, and the Slmplexers defeated the Jenktns crew, 5-0, the same afternoon. So according to dope the League leaders have the games Saturday 'clinched," but a few weeks ago the Malleable and Jenkins-Vulcan teams

won from the SimDlex and Natco

teams In one of their unexpected return to form. T.nt Katurd&v the Malleables won

from the Jenkins-Vulcan crew and the

Simplex team won from the Natco. Those games put the Simplex and Vntrn arrrfarntlonB on a tie for first

position and this tie may last all the

rest of the season, isext saiuraay u the Natcos and Slmplexers both win or both lose, they will be still tied but If one loses and the other wins that miv clinch the nennant for that team

as the two leaders only meet twice

again this season. ffSSUP THE

Connie Mack Holds Hopeful View of Future CHICAGO, Aug. 16. While baseball magnates contemplate sorrowfully their dwindling colters, and with the first of September ever in mind, look with apprehension toward the future of the national pastime, Connie Mack, tha "Old Fox" of baseball, sees no

I naiioa frtp alarm

Neither, according to his views, will the recent embroglio at Cleveland, in which both National and American league magnates participated in "swatting" Ban Johnson, endanger the pooisitn the American league president occupies with regard to the sport in general. Mack's conclusions may be summed up as follows: 1. Unless the war continues two years or longer, baseball will feel no permanent ill effects. 2. There will be no break ki the relations between the Amrican and the National leagues. 3. The seeming unpleasantness developed at Cleveland will b forgottn and Ban Johnson's prstige unimpaired. 4. No reorganization of the National rnmmissinn with a view to the elim

ination of Garry Herrmann is contem-

StUSLfXT' ky JACK.REENE Why doesn't the government handle the world series? Big league moguls have decided to stage the big show after Sept. 2. the

date named by Secretary Baker on

which the magnates are to wind up

their season and release all players of draft age so they my work or fight. So far the government has not intimated that it will prevent the series. ' In the past the players have shaded the receipts of the first four games of each series, and the moguls and the national commission have gobbled up the rest of the coin. Now why not Pay the players participating at their regular salary, pay the necessary expenses of the series and then turn over all the rest f the proceeds to some worthy war fund or use it for purchasing ath

letic equipment lor tne soiaiere: - It would mean many thousands of dollars more for war purposes. The series would be helping to raise war funds instead of helping to increase the riches of the magnates. Baseball has been classed as a nonessential sport. The government is simply suffering the players to continue the game. Other men with their wealth and ruggedness are In war service. The players might well be contented with their regular salary for the series. And the fans would turn out in irroaipr numbers than ever before if

they knew their money was going to help beat the Huns. Why let the mag- j

nates get fat on the flood or com inai will be poured into the box office for these games? Of course the sad part of It is that the bie league magnates haven't had

patriotism enough to suggest this plan themselves. Williams Team Takes

WASHINGTON TODAY AND SATURDAY

'oldtvyn I prtnt

We are today showing in this Theatre a Goldwyn motion picture that will reach the heart of every man, woman and child in Richmond. This picture is a drama of the American home and of mothers', daughters' and lovers' hearts. Not one scene of it Is laid in Europe. Not one scene reveals a battle, or preparation for battle. There are no spies, no struggles, no tense unhappy moments to bring grief or pain to the womanhood of the nation. But there is a wonderful story and all the way through it you see a wonderful girl, who, through the power that God puts into the souls of women, sends away a wonderful boy to make this a wonderful world to live in.
