BALLOONS TO START FROM BIRMINGHAM NEW YORK, Sept. 7 The national balloon race scheduled to start from Birmingham, Ala., this month and the international contest for balloonlsts to start from the same city in October are expected, by Aero Club officials in charge of the races to set new records. This hope is based upon the greater gas capacity of the balloons and lessons of construction learned In the war. The national event, due to start Sept. 25, will see 15 contenders lined up, each aspiring to be one of three who will defent the Gordon Bennett Cup, which has been in America since being lifted from France in 1913 by Ralph Upson, of Akron, Ohio. Upson, present international title holder, made his entry as soon as the race was announced. Three bags have been entered by the Army Air service, one by the Navy and another by the Army Ealloon school, Fort Omaha. The other 10 balloons have been entered by civilians. The entry of the balloon school will be piloted by A. Leo Stevens, who, with Professor David Tcdd, of Amherst college won fame last spring by an attempt to pick up radio-electric waves from Mars through a receiving station 30,000 feet above the earth. The second race, which is to start Oct. 23, will be the fourth occasion on which the United States has defended the Gordon Bennett international trophy since its foundation In 1906. The entries, six in all, are: Italy, two: United States, three, and ! Belgium one. Although America is the title holder by virtue of winning the last race, France has an unbeaten record for distance, made in 1912, when Maurice Bienaime covered 1,361 miles without touching land, besting the American record of 1,172 miles set in 1910 by Alan R. Hawley. The balloon "Belgica", of 2,000 cubic meters capacity, has been entered by the Aero Club of Belgium. It will be piloted by Ernest Demuyter, who contested in the race of 1912.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM iND

JACK DEMPSEY MADE $55,000 FOR SEVEN MINUTES' BATTLING BENTON HARBOR, Mich., Sept. 7. Jack Dempsey, world's heavy-weight champion, received $55,000 for battering Billy Miske, the St. Paul challenger, to defeat In the third round of their scheduled ten-round bout here yesterday, according to a statement of the receipts given out today by Floyd Fltzsimmons, promoter of the contest. The total attendance of the Labor day battle was 11,348, and the total receipts were $134,904, including state and war tax. According to the articles of agreement Dempsey was guaranteed $50,000 with a privilege of accepting 50 per cent, of the receipts. Miske fought on a straight guarantee of $25,000. Miske's Ribs Not Broken After the knockout It was reported that one of Miske's ribs had been broken by the terrific punch he had received in the second round but the challenger was examined by two physicians after he reached his training camp and they agreed there waa no fracture. The spot under Miske's heart still was red and sore today from the effects of the punch, which, Miske admitted, was the blow that really started him towards defeat. His ribs are bruised and his Jaw Is sore, but otherwise he is none the worse from his experience. Dempsey Hasn't a Mark Dempsey did not bear a mark of the battle. After he had dinner with promoter Fltzsimmons and a party of friends last night he spent the rest of the evening dancing at a summer pavilion in St. Joseph. He planned to leave for Chicago late this afternoon and will immediately go east in search of new opponents to conquer. Promoter Fitzsimmona declared the contest was a success in every way. "The house was vlrtualy sold out," he said. "I believe that the few vacant seats that were in the one section were sold In Chicago and that the tickets were held by some of those who were unable to arrive on time due to an accident on the railroad." Pickpockets Win Bets Despite the police protection, scores of visitors were victims of pickpockets. Secretary McCauley of the state! boxing commission lost $180 at the' ringside as a result of pickpockets. I Others reported that they had lost sums ranging from $25 to $250. Miske was heart broken over his defeat. He left the ring in tears as he had hoped to stay the limit with Demp-1 sey, as he had done in their two previous engagements. His father and wife, were ringside spectators. iO EXPECTED WHEN EARLHAM SQUAD IS GATHERED FRIDAY Football practice at Earlham will begin next Friday afternoon. All the old football men have been ordered to report at that time by Coach Ray B. Mowe. About 50 candidates are expected to put in their appearance for the initial workouts. All Richmond men who are intend ing to try out for the football team are requested to be present at 2 o'clock Friday afternoon. Nash Higglns, assistant coach, will arrive Wednesday to help get things in readiness for Friday.

Al Carter Already Here. Al Carter, of New York, one of last years backfield men and crack quartermiler, put in his appearance Monday. Carter is expected to land a regular position among the line plungers after his year experience coupled with his ground covering ability. Captain Orv Hall will be ready for the first pigskin workouts. Ray Johnson, last year's All-State contendor for a guard position, will also be present according to Coach Mowe. Definite predictions as to the success of the season were not indulged In by the Quaker mentor. Ho stated that he had some good men coming back to college this fall, but that too much could not be expected of them unless some good freshmen material also put in appearance. Losses Are Serious. ' The loss of Raiford at auarter. Mills on the line and Pitts and Collins in the back field will necessitate the development of some fa?t material to rank up with laet year's eleven. The Quaker schedule for the coming season is one of the hardest ever undertaken by the local school. The first game of the year comes with Hanover on Reid Field, Oct. 2. 36 Amatenrs Are Left In Golf Tournament ROSLYN, N. Y., Sept. 7.

AMERICAN LEAGUE BATTLE TO BE WON AT LASTJE SAYS The battle for place In the American League is going to be "decided in the last week, or perhaps the last day of the season, if the opinion of Jimmy Burke carries weight The fiery leader of the Browns declared recently that none of the three leading teams had reason to look to the future with any undue confidence. Close and gruelling as the battle is now. Burke believes that it will wax still more furious in the walning days of September. While watching with eager eyes the ebb and flow of the tide of battle in the league Burke is sitting tight in fourth place, ready to play the part of marplot and killjoy. His team Is known for its fighting spirit, and, while it may not be a championship aggregation, it is dangerous. Burke said he would concede nothing, and that while it might seem a bit out of line, he did not consider It utterly impossible for the Browns to bust through and grab off a minor share of the world's series melon. A sudden slump on the part of the leaders, and the Browns would be right up there when the big divide is made. Burke takes issue with those who have read the Yankees out of the race for chief honors. He insists that there is enough smash and crash in the Hugmen to carry them right to the top of their league, no matter what the rival aggregations may send against them. The boss of the Browns sees pitching strength, hitting strength and a rugged defense in the Yankees, and a made desire to break out in hitting streaks that may decide a game in any inning, no matter the score against them. Burke voices the sentiment, too, that had it not been for the unfortunate sequence of accidents which robbed the Yankees of their strongest players, the standing of the league might be different. "The leaders in the American League race are just beginning to fight," said Boss Burke. "And you can say that the Brownies are in there to remain until the last game is played. I look for this same nip and tuck struggle to last until the teams come down to the last week of the season. Chicago is a strong, well balanced team, with the confidence of champions, and the ability to plug along to the finish. The Sox, moreover, have a lot of speed, and this asset is one of the greatest in baseball. It is one thing to have the ability to slug, but a team must be able to do m3ny other things. The Indians may find it hard to readjust themselves, but Speaker has a clever team, and he Is a natural leader. "The Yankees are factors, strong factors, and neither Speaker nor Glea-

son can dismiss them lightly. If they even attempt It, Huggins will drive his men right into the championshipNo matter what Chicago or Cleveland do, the Yankees are Just as likely to win the pennant as either of the chief rivals. They are so close to the lead that anything may happen. Another thing, the Yankees have always been a good road club, and while most teams are stronger at home, the Hugmen have shown their power while touring the circuit. This power will aid greatly in the days to come on the road. Fritz von Kolnitz, who quit the Chicago White Sox to practice law, but has been playing with the Charleston team of the South Atlantic league, has been notified by the Chicago club that if he wants to play ball again he should play where he belongs, and he has been informed that while he can finish the season with Charleston, he will be expected to report to Manager Gleason in the fall.

To stop umpire-baiting, grown so obnoxious in the Blue Ridge league. President Jamison has promulgated a rule that any player chased from a game by an umpire is automatically suspended from play for that game and two more. As a result, two star players of the Chambersburg club, Manager Hooper and Captain Fuhrey, have been out of the game for two days, and the same may cost Hooper his position, for the directors are disgusted and have called a special meeting.
