RAVING GIANTS LOSE TWO; REDS HAVE BIG LEAD

Ring and Eller Scheduled to Repeat Yesterday's Double Win in New York. NEW YORK. Aug. 14. Gone are the hopes of Protest John and his contenders of sticking the Reds back Into Becond place in the final series at the Polo grounds this week, for the Reds up and took enough to clinch their lead while winning the first of the three double bills Wednesday afternoon. Pat Moran's two able southpaws, Ructher and Sallee, with some of the only support that a team can claim the championship on, held the Giants Just tight enough enough to win two contests. The Reds fifty-nine points to the good, and all the winning the Giants can do In the next four games cannot drive them out of first place.

It was a great day for the coming champs, and they played the largests crowd that has witnessed a championship baseball game this season, the

New York fans exceeding by a few

hundred the record breaking Sunday

crowd at Cincinnati. Reds Are Tight

With the exception of one Inning, when the machinery slipped long

enough to allow the Giants two tallies, the Reds played airtight ball through the entire first game. After the Giants had been given a two run lead in the second inning, Pat's crew stepped up and swatted out a trio of markers in the third, and Heinle Groh's home run with no one on made Just enough to clinch the contest.

Slim Sallee, who has twice before

been beaten by the Giants, came in for his share of revenge in the second

contest, and only once did he show

too much confidence, allowing Gon

tales to steal home for the only Giant

marker. The Reds will try for another boo3t to their standing in the second double bill, to be played Thursday afternoon, and Manager Moran will probably start the first game with Ring on the mound. Jommie showed the Giants that he had their goat in the la3t visit of McGraw's men to Redlauds, and he has confidence in his ability to repeat the performance for the bonefit of the New York fans. Hod EUer will probably start the second contest, with Bressler, Fisher and Luque in reserve. Hod failed to stand up against the Phillies in the last contest he played, but he too, promises to come back and give th Giants a litle more to worry about corcerning championship hopes. New York Losing Hope. New York fans are already beginning to arrange for October to pass New York without a world series contest, and many openly concede that Cincinnati will win the pennant. McGraw's two pitching hopes, recently purchased to strengthen the team, failed to deliver in Wednesday's contest, and his hopes for the second game are pinned on Benton, Barnes and Toney. The Reds have been able to do very much as they please with Toney's delivery, and Barnes, who has been winning very consistently, is about to run against the straight win jinx. Benton has been effective against the Reds, but whether he will be able to Btand another game against the leaders is doubtful. The scores of Wednesday's games: First Game

EARLHAM OUTLOOK BRIGHT; 45 TO BE IN FOOTBALL SQUAD "Earlham will give all of her opponents a stiff battle for I. C. A. L. honrs in football this season," declared Coach Mowe of Earlham, .Thursday morning. "I have received letters from 45 men who have expressed their desire of joining the football squad when Earlham opens, and of this number, nine are last year's letter men, and the rest are mostly of last years squad, although several new men, are coming to Earlham this year who have starred on high school and army football teams." "I cannot help expressing optimistic views as regards . the athletic prospects at Earlham this year, for from what I know I will have the best batch of athletic material to work with that I have had since I have been at Earlham." "The greater part of last years basketball team are going to try out for football this year and they ought to at least make the squad." "Speaking of basketball," Mowe continues, "I can see nothing short of the I. C. A.. L. championship, for Earlham, with " the exception of Meeks of last years' basketball squad Is going to return to Earlham." No Personal Fouls "Although it has escaped the notice of most people, Earlham never had a man taken off the floor for personal fouls during the entire season last year, and Earlham players committed the least number of personal fouls of any of the I. C. A. L. teams. "Cleanness in playing, both In football and basketball, is an essential point I always forceably bring before my teams and I always demand clean playing in any form of athletic competition. "Earlham opens September 15, but several of the football candidates have expressed their intention of starting a few days before that date in order to have their football equipment issued, and to be all ready when college formally opens, and so they will be able to get a good start on their drive for the I. C. A. L. football championship."

MAYS' SUSPENSION WAR BREAKS OUT IN MEETING TODAY

NE WY'ORK, Aug. 14. At a special meeting of the Board of Directors of the American League of Baseball clubs, here today, the powers of President B. B. Johnson in his relations with he club owners formed tho chief topic for discussion. The meeting was called by a majority of the directors, consisting of Charles A. Comlskey, Jacob Ruppert and Harry H. Frazee, representing, respectively, the Chicago, New York and Boston clubs and was the result of the Indefinite suspension of Carl W. Mays a pitcher, recently sold by the Boston club to New York. The other members of the board include President Johnson and James C. Dunn, president of the Cleveland club. In addition to considering the powers exercised by President Johnson, it was announced that the majority directors would make Inquiry regarding Mr. Johnson's relations with the Cleveland club. Further legal complications developed yesterday In the Mays controversy when a court order was obtained by officials of the New York club requiring President Johnson to appear before a referee In this city Friday to answer questions regarding a possible financial Interest In the Cleveland organization. Mr. Johnson was served with an injunction preventing him from utilizing a league sinking fund In defending cases against him growing out of the controversy.

A hearing will be held tomorrow to give Johnson an opportunity to show cause why the Injunction obalned by the majority directors should not be made permanent. At the hearing before the referee, Johnson will be asked as to his alleged enemity toward Mr. Frazee of the Boston club and why Pitcher Mays was suspended

without an opportunity to answer charges.. Baseball men In close touch with the situation said today that late de-. velopments indicated that the case would not be settled out of court as rumored earlier in the week. Hope of conciliation, they said, have virtually been abandoned.

Slip to one Allan Sothoron the credit for keeping the Browns anywhere near the top in the American league bunting scramble. The red undershirt gent has been hurling a grand article of ball for Jimmy Burke and winning more than his share of games. Sothoron recently hung up a string of nine straight victories before being checked. It took no less a personage than Eddie Cicotte to tie the tag on Allan. Sothoron gave Cicotte some old battle. When the smoke cleared away the Sox had nosed out a win, 1 to 0. An error by Gerber was responsible for the run. Sothoron has the number of all the teams in the circuit, but Cleveland seems to be a particular meat. Up to a recent date he had trimmed the Indians four times and had been trimmed only once by them. The defeat handed him by Cicotte and the Windy City crew wasn't the first bio from that quarter. Chicago has beaten him three times out of four starts. A fifth defeat by the Yankees was the only other black mark on his season's record when the Browns began their present invasion of the east. Sothoron's willingness to work makes him a valuable man. He is ready to go in any day and pitch the whole fracas or finish a battle. His one fault, and it is not a serious one, is his habit of easing up when he has the game going good. He has escaped defeat several times by a squeak because he let down in the late innings. He is overcoming this habit at Burke's suggestion.

RESERVES, "CHAMPS OF FAYETTE," WILL PLAY HERE SUNDAY

Connersville is determined that she is going to hand Richmond a good beating despite the Gray's defeat here. Sunday, August 17, the Reserves, who claim the championship of Fayette County, will try the stunt of humbling the locals. Sam Vigran, manager of the Richmond team, says he has no doubt of Richmond's ability to trim the Reserves, his chief worry being whether or not tho game will be played. The Richmond Exhibition Co., instructed Sam to book the game as it isthought that the carnival company now using the playing field, will pack up and leave early Sunday morning, thus giving Sam a chance to put a bunch of men to work on the field. The returns from the CincinhatiBrooklyn game and the New York and Chicago game will be announced by innings. As the first game is to be played in the east, the returns will be read much sooner than on other occasions, as eastern time is an hour earlier than central time.

Stop Itching Skin

There is one safe, dependable treatment that relieves itching torture and skin irritation almost instantly, and that cleanses and soothes the skin. Ask any druggist for a 35cor $1 bottle of Zemo and apply it as directed. Soon you will find that irritations, pimples, blackheads, eczema,blotches,ringworm and similar skin troubles will disappear. A little Zemo, the penetrating, satisfying liquid, is all that is needed, for it banishes most skin eruptions, makes theskin soft, smooth and healthy. The E. W. Rose Co, Cleveland, O.

Sothoron Is one of the younger stars of the big show. He is only twentysix. He broke Into pro ball with Troy in the New York State league In 1912 and was transferred to Binghampton. The next season he was released to the York club in the Tri-State. It is interesting to note that the club owners decided he wouldn't make good, so they sent him down to the South Atlantic league in the middle of the season. He wound up the year with Fall River in the New England league. The next year, at Haverhill, In the same circuit, he began to show and late that season the Browns grabbed him off. They let him out with a string attached to Wichita. They called him back in 1916 and sent him to the Pacific Coast for finishing touches. He hung up thirty victories in fifty-seven games that year. In 1917, with the Brownies, he won fourteen and lost nineteen games in forty-eight starts. Last year he was a winner with thirteen victories and twelve defeats. This year ought to be his best, judging from the way he's going now.

Says His Prescription Has Powerful Influence Over Rheumatism Discoverer Telia Drugglste Not to Take a Cent of Anyone's Money Unless Allenrhu Completely Banishes All Rheumatic Paine and Twinges. Mr. James H. Allen suffered for years with rheumatism. Many times this terrible disease left him helpless and unable to work. He finally decided, after years of ceaseless study, that no one can be free from rheumatism until the accumulated impurities, commonly called uric acid deposits, were dissolved in the joints and muscles and expelled from the body. With this idea In mind he consulted physicians, made experiments and finally compounded a prescription that quickly and completely banished every sign and symptom of rheumatism from his system. He freely gave his discovery to others who took It, with what might be called marvelous success. After years of urging he decided to let suf ferers everywhere know about his discovery through the newspapers. All druggists have been appointed agents for Allenrhu In this vicinity with the understanding that he will freely return the purchase money to all who state they received no benefit. Adv.
