0 PIRATES USE BINGLES TO GOOD ADVANTAGE , FOR RED DOWNFALL PITTSBURG, Pa-, April 23.Uins their hits to a much better advantage than the Reds, the Pirates trimmed Maron's men in the second game of the series on Forbes Held Friday afternoon by the score of 6 to 1. The Reds made as many hits as the Pirates but were lacking with the punch when men were on bases. It was the first defeat of the season for Luque, who'found it impossible to
keep the Pirates from hitting ni slants. A wild throw by Wingo helped in the first Pittsburg rally, but the Pirates were able to connect when hits meant runs. Manager Gibson is almost as shy of pitchers as Moran, and was forced to send Zinn. a younster from Texas, against the Reds, who held them in very fine, fashion. Zinn was hit on - the ankle by a hard hit ball from the bat of Wingo in the sixth, but showed no signs of weakening and kept right on going. Fielding is Good. The Reds played good ball in the field after YVingo's costly error in the second which was made In an attempt to complete a double play. Sam Crane's performance in the shortfield was in the best of style and Fonseca also did well at second. Paskert coverpd center field in excellent style and pulled down six hard drives in that section. ' The game was decided in the second round and Luque could have checked the rally with a little more accuracy Onn a batted ball. He had one man out iu the second when Whitted poled a single into center. Tierney hit safei itt in on Affrvrt tn ret Grimm
I J KJ Ik 111 . ' U v to hit at a bad ball Luque flnally walked him. With the bases full and one down, Schmidt hit a bounder in front of the plato which Luque knocked down but failed to get bis man. Zinn next up hit lo the box which Luque fielded, and got his man at the plate, but Wingo trying for a double play which would have retired the side threw wildly into right field and two runs scored. Bigbee singled and the fourth count came over. The Score.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND
Whatza Matter With England's ''Fighters of Today, Says Menfce
By FRANK O. M!YKE3 Great Britain knows no task more difficult and mora hopeless than that of developing a heal heavyweight gladiator. ' . What is stranger1 what Is more of a challenge to comprehension than the fact that the homo or pugilism the cradle of first fighters n&sn't produced a formidable fighter In nearly 50 years? If England and its possessions Canada and Australia principally had made no effort to produce a heavyweight ruler of the universe, then comment and surprise would be superflous. But Great Britain year after year has been scoured for heavyweight material. Vast sums have been squandered in recruiting and teaching prospects. So agitated has England become over its failure that sporting publications are editorially begging husky youths to take up the fighting game; noblemen of wealth are gathering up likely looking giants and paying boxing tutors big money in the hope that one or the other will develop greatness and become a world champion. But so far, the net result of nearly 20 years of search for a heavyweight champion is Bombardier Wells and Joe Beckett men who wouldn't last five minutes as Jack Dempsey's sparring partner. Why is it that England can't produce a great heavyweight through national search, national effort and national expense while this country without effort has brought out 100 men in 20 years who could whip England's topnotchers without drawing a long breath? Mitchell is Last. Charlie Mitchell was the last of England's great ones and yet Mitchell was never a match for Sullivan, Corbett or any other Americans under the Queensbury rules. Inasmuch as he was England's one outstanding fighter at the time and England's pride he became immortal. Yet had he been an American and accomplished no more than be did. his name would be but a hazy memory. Eliminate what Mitchell did in England and what does one find? He was whipped by Dominick McDaffery. who never was a truly great. His best against Jack Kilrain was a draw. Mike Cleary, Patsy Cordiff and Jack Burke held him to draws. The only Americans he did whip were obscure and mediocre men such as Denny Hayes, Billy Lynn, Billy Edwards, Reddy Gallagher and John Siholes. Mitchell's real claim to fame was maae wnen ne went 39 rounds to a draw in France with the mighty John I Sullivan. But there were extenu ating circumstances. The fight was on a wet soggy turf under London Prize Ring rules by which a round was ended whenever one fighter was knocked or fell to the ground. Sullivan, a heavy man, was at a disadvan (-ago uu 1 11 o uuci uiiu uiai day; Mitchell, light and agile, was in tage on the uncertain footing that his element. Pecked Away The Briton would step in, peck away and retreat when Sullivan went after him. When in danger, Mitchell would go down and Sullivan would have to wait for the next round. And in the next Mitchell would duplicate the previous one. That's why Mitchell went those 39 rounds. Just how great Mitchell was under Queensbury rules is shown by the fact that Sullivan knocked him out . in three rounds and nearly annihilated him in the process, and Corbett repeated the trick some years later. Mitchell was England's greatest for nearly 50 years he was undeniably the outstanding fighter in half a cen tury. Compared with other British, ELDORADO BASERALL ' NINE TRIES AGAIN ELDORADO, O., April 23. Eldorado will try to open the season next Sunday with the West Manchester nine on the local diamonds.

Carpentier has chance. Easy for Jack. Dempsey's wallop will win. Carpentier's footwork will puzzle champ. . (Date of fight) Greatest fighter of all time proclaimed Jack Dempsey. Babe Ruth, of the Yankees, and Kelly, of Giants, are running a homerun batting race which is at dead heats now. Each player pounded out his fourth circuit drive Friday. Ruth is far ahead of his schedule last year, as he did not make cis fourth home run until May 11 in 1921. Kelly's total last year was 11 ana Kuth's 54. Fans up in New "Vork gave Harry Courtney, the lanky Washington hurler, a panning the first time he strolled in from the box. Courtney is a tall, skinny South Carolinian with a per petual chew distorting his features. The fans asked him where he learned to walk like that, and a few other personal questions but. of course, he could say nothing to 100 critics In a mob of 20,000. Courtney has a very good right to walk as he does. When serving with the A. E. F, in France a machine gun bullet took out a handful of the muscle in his leg and caused him to shuffle on that pin. Courtney was decorated J by the French government for bravery in action. Bubbles Hargrave has about landed himself a regular berth in the box score.
