TWO GAMES TOTALLY

SPOILED BY STORMS; LUQUE HURLS TODAY BOSTON, Mass., June 18. And then It rained. And then Business Manager Frank Bancroft of the Reds tore his hair and raved, and the Reds lost thousands of dollars because of the rain. And the rushing Cards gained a quarter of a game because of it. Any way. Manager Moran was tipped off two college pitchers of promise. Without inquiring names, Moran sent word to have them report at Philadelphia on Monday. Although It was pouring hard Thursday night, Moran Is hopeful of meeting the Braves Friday. Adolfo Luque will hurl if it stops raining. The score of the only National League game: At Philadelphia R. H. E.

IVEY ELIGIBLE FOR OLYMPIC TESTS WEAK HEART PREVENTS Charles Ivey, captain of the 1921 Earlham track team, although eligible to try out for the American team for the International Olympic, will not compete because of a weak heart.

His performance in clearing the high hurdles in 15.2 is also noteworthy. e could compete in both these events. No other Earlham athlete is eligible for competition.

Rogers Hornsby in action. Grover Cleveland Alexander, who ranks as one of the greatest pitchers and wisest men in the game, gives due credit to Babe Ruth for being the greatest slugger the sport ever has known, but avers that Pogers Hornsby of the Cardinals is the best hitter in the game. "Hornsby will get many more hits in a season than Kuth and can hit any kind of pitching," says Grover.

Pennsy-Himes Dairy Game PostponedTo Clash Later The Pennsy commercial league baseball team attribute their failure to win a game Thursday afternoon at Exhibition park, to the fact the Himes Dairy clan was unable to appear. President Sam Vigran said Friday the game may be played off later. The weakest and strongest will get together Friday afternoon when the Home Telephone company and Y. M. C. A. clashes at the Twenty-Second street playgrounds. The '"Hello" outfit has not lost a game, and the Association team has not won a game. Otto Miller. Last spring sages with the Brook lyn Trolley Dodgers doped it. out that Otto Miller, veteran backstop on Uncle Robbie's outfit, was booked to join the ranks of the bygone stars. In other wards. Otto was slated to warm the bench most of the time, with Krueger, Elliott and young Zach Taylor doing the backstopping. Har, har! Poor old Otto has one on the scribes. For the bird who has been doing the bulk of the catching in such a superb manner for the Dodgers is none other than the old boy. In the first IT games he caught the Dodgers were licked but three times. Of course Otto shouldn't get all the credit for the victories, but there must have been something in his presence behind the plate for the Dodgers did not set that pace in the games they played without Miller. He caught on stretch of 11 games without seeing the Dodgers lose. Grimes, Mamaux, Pfeffer and Mar quard worked In those 11 games Miller handled them all. In that stretch of 11 games Mamaux won four straight. Grimes won five of the other seven. Miller's success hadn't deserted him when this item was dashed off. Otto joined Brooklyn from the Duluth club back in 1910. He got his start with Sharon in the O. and P. league in 1908 and was drafted by Louisville the next season. The Colonels sent him to Duluth. He was the Brooklyn club's most dependable backstop every season up to last year. In the 1919 campaign he caught in over 50 games. COACH MOWE TURNS DOWN MINOR LEAGUE CLUB OFFERS Coach Ray B. Mowe, of Earlham college, has turned down several offers to play minor league ball this

Cannot Sell Candy In Theaters; War's Ended (London Times) The government evidently is not aware of the resentment aroused by the way in which it clings to special powers granted during the war. A classic example is furnished by the government's tenacious retention of the regulation forbidding the sale of chocolates and other sweetmeats in theaters. The subject is comparatively trivial, but the principle involved is fundamental. The regulation was originally introduced In consequence of the scarcity of sugar. Sugar is not plentiful even now, but it is admitted that this objection no longer applies; yet the government, sooner than shed the least of its wartime powers, seeks to continue, the regulation on quite a

'bORRT tR -1 EAT HERE - I WORK FARE.? different plea. It eays now that because ordinary sweetshops close at a given hour "the dtlense of the realm" will be endangered if anybody buys a packet of chocolates during an evening performance. When the lord chancellor ponderously observes in the house of lords that the primary business of theater "is not to sell chocclatets but to present the drama", he is making a statement which is too absurd to analyze. One of the primary duties of the government is to abandon war-time regulations as speedily as possible, and not to make itself ridiculous by continuing minor annoyances. Onehaif of the unpopularity of the government is due not to its big mistakes, but to the petty ones, which are the surest indication of complete lack of touch with public feeling. Motorcyclists Seek Hill Climbing Cap Sixteen local motorcycle riders have signed for the hill climbing contest at 2:30 p. m. Sunday, of the Richmond Motorcycle Club on Pardieck's farm three miles south of Richmond on the Abington pike. The course will be over a hill 402 feet long with a 61 per cent grade.

The race will be run under the supervision, of the Motorcycle and Allied Trades Association of .America. Canada and U, S. Are Friends (Oliver Herford in "This Giddy Globe" Doran.) Canada, with the exception of Mexico, is the only other part of North America not ruled by the. Irish. In former days It was a popular health resort for frenzied financiers who wished to retire from private life. It is now a still more popular resort, for Americans suffering from a thirst. Though next door neighbors and rivals in business and. what is still more trying, near relatives, Canada and the United States are the best of friends. For over a hundred years there has not been so much as a picket fence or a policeman, much less a patrol or a fortification, on the border line between the two countries. Canada has not, like her sister Col umbia.
