Manager Moran said predictions are that if the rain runs out of juice Saturday, Jimmy TUng will hurl the opener for the Reds. It should have been the closer. And then our boys will loaf over Sunday and open against the Phillies on Monday. The Quakers aided the Reds by flipping a cog into the run of wins for the St. Louis Cards Friday. Manager Moran announced that the two pitchers to be added to the Red staff are Guy Rickard. right-hander of Cornell, and Cummings, southpaw, of Amherst. They will report at Philadelphia Monday.

BABE RUTH AND ATTENDANT TROUPE OF N. Y, YANKEES HERE AUGUST 22

ENTRIES CLOSE FOR CENTRAL A. A. U. TESTS

The New York Yankees, with Babe Ruth, Emll Meusel, Ping Bodie, Peckinpaugh and Pipp, will play an exhibition game here on August 22. Elmer Eggemeyer, manager of the Richmond Exhibition company, said Saturday. Eggemeyer has been dickering for the game for several weeks and only recently closed the contract. This contract guaranteed that Babe Ruth would play at least part of the game. The Yankees probably will prove the greatest drawing card that ever played here. They are expected to draw a bigger crowd than the Cincinnati appearance last year. Hundreds of Richmond fans follow Babe Ruth's home run performance with interest each day. Any Richmond small boy can tell the up-to-date record of the mighty Babe. Meusel Also a Star. But Ruth Is not the only attraction of the Yankees. Emil Meusel, the find of the eeason, accredited by

( By Associated Press) CHICAGO. June 19. Entries for the

Central A. A. U. trials for the American Olympic team close tonight with indications that 150 track and field stars from the middlewest will enter the competition. The trials will be held at the University of Chicago field a week from today. Virtually every university In the western conference and Missouri valley conference, as well as the college and athletic clubs in this section, are counted upon to enter their athletes. Officials ruled that entries mailed not later than tonight will be accepted.

Leave for San Francisco George W. Pigman, sixth district delegate to the Democratic national convention. Miss Ruth Bartel of Richmond, Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Tappan of Bhelbyville, and Dr. and Mrs. J. I. Mitchell, of Salem, are among those who will leave Indianapolis for San Francisco.

Mosquitoes are found everywhere except in the polar regions.

MANY SPORTS OPEN TO RICHMOND FOLKS FOR THIS WEEK-END

Baseball, motorcycle racing, swimming, tennis, motoring, hiking and golf playing compose the range of summer sports oyen to denizens of Richmond and vicinity during the week-end. King Baseball takes first place. The Richmond Eagles-Indianapolis Merits clash will be between the fastest teams. Several good scraps will come off in the Suburban league. The Knights of Columbus play their first baseball game of the year against a I icked team at Centerville. Motorcycle racing enthusiasts are expected to attend the hill climbing motorcycle contest, first of its kind ever held in this state, on the Pardieck farm south of Richmond, Sunday afternoon. Sixteen local riders have been entered. The program indicates that thrills will be the order of the day. Brr! Water's Fine. The weatherman is slowly recovering from his "shlmmie spell" and warm weather is coming back. The water at Hawkin's pool is fine. Anyway, if it really gets warmer, Richmond will be able to swim. The tennis courts at the TwentySecond Street playgrounds are now open on Sunday. Those that happen to get here early Sunday morning mayobtain a court. And they may not. Richmonud Is in the grip of a tennis fever and everyone wants to play. The cool yet delightful weather nowprevailing will see all the denizens of motordom out for a spin Sunday. The Richmond motorcycle police force will have its hands full in making 'em press liehtly on the accelerator. Bicycle tours will be popular. The rains of 1 lie wok have settled the dust, on the roads. This will make walking easier. Oh yes, Ola Dobbin will probably be hauling the "shay" around the roads. Golfers to Chase Pill. Richmond's golfing enthusiasts of the Country' Club will be up and chasm 'em Sunday. They have had to lay off this week because of orders from the weatherman. This latter person has been properly squelched, however.

critics as hitting the ball as hard as Ruth, also will be in the lineup. Then there will be Ping Bodie and Peckinpaugh, also of home run fame.' These sluggers probably will keep the fence climbers busy with their drives over the short right and left field fences at Exhibition park. Eggemeyer was able to get the Yankees to play here due to the fact that August 22 is an open date. They will be returning east after their second western invasion. To stop at Richmond will be no loss of time. Interest of Richmond fans in the big league races is divided between the Yankees and Reds.

EAGLES HOPE FOR WIN FROM MERITS

The third time Is the charm. So maybe the Richmond Eagles will win Sunday. Reports from Indianapolis, however, are that the Indianapolis Merits will furnish more than opposition. They expect a victory. The Merits have not played many games this season but have the same line-up that hung up a brilliant record last year. Several of the players have had minor league experience. The line-ups as announced by Manager Everett Haas of the Eagles are: Richmond Eagles Fitzgibbons, ss.; Schepman, If.; Logan, 2b.; Hiatt, rf.; J. Holmes, I ff. ; Reddinghaus, 3b.; W. Holmes, cf.; Haas, c; Minner, p.; Hawekotte, p.; Knight and Justice, utility. Indianapolis Merits Bishop, 3b.; Steinmetz, 2b.; Gaalema, cf. ; Lucid, rf. ; Huhn, If.; Barnhardt, ss.; Hansen, lb.; Strahl, c; Rebman, p.; Brown, p.; Farrell, p.

M. C. A. Because of the fact, that the Hello crew had won its two previous games by large scores, the Y. M. C. A. was expected to go down to easy defeat.
