RIXEY VIIJS VICTORY FOR REDS; DOUBLE PLAYS HELP CINGY . . ... ST. LOUIS, Aug. 12 Eppa Rixey bad the Indian sign on the Cardinals here Thursday and with the aid of fire fast double plays, won the third game of the series for the Reds by the scort of 6 to 1. Two singles and a sacrifice fly enabled the Cards to score their lone run in the eighth frame. The Cards found Rixey for.nlne hits but could- not make them into runs, and in only two rounds did the Cards threaten and only one of these round3
saw a tally cross the pan. In the third Inning with one out the next three batters singled and loaded the bases, but here Eppa put on the skid chains and the next two batters were easy outs. Bonne Does Good Work Sammy Bonne bad a big day both in the field and at bat. and was quite a large factor in the Reds' victory. He made four hits out of as many times to bat. one of them being a double. He drove in two runs and scored another. He accepted IS chances in the field with only one error and several of his chance3 were difficult ones which he handled nicely and with lightning speed. He started two of the double plays and was the pivot man in two of the other three double killings. The score: Cincinnati .

FARMLAND IS COMING TO REPEAT VICTORIES OVER LOCAL BIRDMEN Farmland again will try to take the measure of the Eagles when the two teams cross bats for the fourth timo this season. The Farmland team has trimmed the Eagles two out of the three times they have met, and the Eagles will put forth every effort to even up the count in Sunday's gam. The Farmland team seems to be the only team the Eagles have met this feason that form any kind of opposition for the Birdmen. and the best fjames of the season have been played against the Randolph county lads. Kubby. the hurler who trimmed the Eagles in the game played here July 4. asain will be on the hill for the Farmland nine, and he probably will be opposed by Hawekotte for the EaKles. Both men are hurling gooa ball this season and another pitchers' battle should be staged. Tuhey Dangerous. "Tobe" Tuhey, who played the early rart of the season with Farmland, aeain will be in their lineup and no doubt will cause the Eagles considerable trouble when at bat. He is a small man but has the knack of smacking the ball to all corners of the lot, and covers acre of ground around the short field. The remainder of tho Farmland lineup will ba the tamo as thi other games. The Eagles lineup will remain the same for Sunday. Play will be called ft 3 o'clock sharp. ZINN'S HITTING WINS VICTORY FOR PIRATES (By Associated Pr3) NEW YORK, Aug. 12. Another major league pitcher, Zinn, or Pittsburgh came forward yesterday as an opportune hitter and he also added a bit of base running to his performance. In the eleventh Inning of the second game between the Pirates and the Chicago Cubs he hit sarely. stole second and scored the winning run on Robertson's single. Pittsburgh won both games, increasing their first placo percentage in the National league, their nearest rivals, the New York Giants breaking even In a double header with Brooklyn-. Tillie Walker of the Philadelphia Athletics is making a bid for home run honors. In the game with the Yankees he hit hi3 seventeenth circuit drive. Ruth made his forty-third homer in the same game. By winning, the Yankees helped their first place standing, Frisch of the Giants and Kilduff of Brooklyn also made four base hits. The .1000 percent batting averages marked the Cincinnatl-St. Louis Na tionals contest. Bohne of the Reds made four safe hits In as many times at bat and Mann of the Cardinals, pro duced three with his bat la his three appearances before opposing pitchers. The popular notion of the Chinese with regard to an eclipse is that somo monBter is attacking, and unie&s pr vented will devour the sun or moon as the case may be.
CHALLENGER FRUSH HAS HUSKY BUILD AND PACKS A KNOCKOUT, RECORDS SHOW
r -Ail Ml. Ws I Vlk
Two glimpses of Danny Frush, which show his husky build and his arms, which carry a mean kick. Danny Frush, who has signed for a chance at Johnny Eilbane'3 featherweight title in Cleveland next month, believes that he can knock out Vie veteran champion just as Danny has a string of the good boys in the division in the past year. Frush is a rugged chap, unusually muscular for his size and packs a mean wallop in his husky arms. I can take what Johnny has and then get him, Frush has told Tommy MeGinty, one of the two irozsoUrs of the bout.
Johnny Wilson
Then Pugilism is Threatened
Ruling of Referee or Judge May Not Be Infallible, But They Are the Only Living Men Who Have the Final Say.
Tty KUASK G. MEVKB If Jahnny Wilson isn't the middle-' weight champion of the universe, then the whole structure of pugilism topples. If a boxing commission is to be permitted to over-rule a referee in Cleveland, then the foundation on which .the game has rested since time immemorial has crumbled to decay. If a referee or ring Judges aren't to have the final and absolute say as to who was victor in a battle, then what's the use of having them? The ruling of a referee or judges may not be infallible; it may be faulty; it may be fearfully unjust and wholly wrong. But the referee and judges, after all is said and done, incompetent as they may be, are the only living men who have the final say as to who was victorious in a battle of maulies. Recognition of the "decision" of the Cleveland Boxing Commission that Bryan Downey scored a knockout over Wilson in the Forest City means simply the coming of a chaotic situation in fistic sportsdom. For, if the ruling of that Commission is accepted, then it acts as an invitation to all other local and state commissions to do likewise in the future whenever they disagree with the ring arbitrator's verdict. Would Read Like Census And then sportsdom will have known so many "champions" that the complete list will read like the census of pugdom. Irrespective of the merits of that battle, Wilson must remain champion until such time as he is legally knocked out, legally loses on a foul or legally is defeated on points with a referee or authorized judges deciding the issue. Clevelanders insist that Jimmy Gardner, who officiated on that popeyed night, was a referee hand pick ed by Wilson." Perhaps he was. They also claim that he was sent into the ring for the purpose of protecting wusons tm "at anv cost." That may or ruay not be true. If it is, then the Cleveland Bcxint Commission deserves severe censuro for permitting a fight which tossed into the resoined square a man which it deemed in advance unfair and partial. It would have been far bettor for the commission to have called off How They Stand NATIONAL LEAGUE Clubs Won Lost Pet .638 .602 .574 .523 .509 .435 .413 .301 Pet. .621 .617 .532 .486 .472 .467 .464 .374 Pet .574 .551 .546 .523 .463 .468 .453 .409 Pittsburg 67 New York 65 Boston 58 38 43 43 52 52 61 62 72 Brooklyn 57 St. Louis 54 Cincinnati 47 Chicago 44 Philadelphia ...31 AMERICAN Clubs LEAGUE Won Lost New York 64 Cleveland 66 Washington 53 3D 41 52 55 57 56 60 67 St. Louis 51 Detroit 51 Boston ,.49 Chicago 46 Philadelphia -...40 AMERICAN ASSOCIATION Clubs Won Lost Louisville ' 66 Minneapolis 59 Kansas City...' 59 49 43 43 Milwaukee 58 53 Indianapolis 53 60 St. Paul 52 53 Toledo 51 60 Columbus 45 65 GAMES TODAY National League Cincinnati at St. Louis.

-THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM! AND
Isn't Champ the fight than to let it go on with a referee which it claims it mistrusted in advance. Conflicting Stories The ozone fairly shimmies with conflicting stories of what happened. Separating the wheat from the chaff of all the charges,' contradictions, alibis and accusations, this seems to be about the sizeup. Killilea wanted Gardner to referee. The Cleveland Commission named a local man. Killilea said "It's Gardner pr no fight". The commission finally let Killilea have his way and the fight was put on. For six rounds the men fought about even-stephen, with Wilson having probably a slight edge. In the seventh a heap of things happened. It is claimed by Wilson that in a clinch near Downey's corner, someone in that corner yelled something to him. Comine out of the clinch. Wilson looked into the corner to. see what it . was . all about. Thereupon Downey socked him. Wilson went down and took a "nine" count. He got up and was dropped again. He went down a third time, during which period Downey hit him, thus committing a foul.' Wilson Insists Wilson insists and in this he is backed up by Gardner, that he wasn't hurt, merely stunned. He said on either occasion he could have gotten up at four or five, but inasmuch as he was down he determined to do a little resting. While on his knees for the third "down" Downey got excited and busted him. The Downeyites claim this: Downey socked Wilson fair and square and Wilson went down. The referee gave him a long count, about 13 seconds actually elapsing before Wilson got up at the Gardner chant of "nine". Downey hit him again and Wilson went down and got another long count. When he climbed unj right again, Downey belted him a bit 1 17 nuu iucio aim iviisua crumpled for the third time. Downey .claims he didn't hit Wilson when he was down insists that no such blow or blows were struck. He contends that Killilea, in a desperate effort to save Wilson, jumped into the ring and claimed foul and that Gardner then stopped his third count and granted the claim of foul. Didn't See Any Fcul "Gardner apparently didn't see any foul blows struck before Killilea informed him about them," claim the Clevelandrs. "If he had, why didn't he award the fight to Wilson on a foul after the third knockdown, instead of starting a count which had reached seven before Gardner stopped and gave Wilson the fight?" There's the jumbled yarn. Spear anything from it that you wish. And the only result is this: Johnny Wilson is still champion because a referee ruled that he won the fight on a foul. For the rules of the fight game are absolutely clear on this point: "None other than a referee or judges is qualified to render a legal aecision m a boxing match.

THE NEW WAY TO END CORNS The Scientific Method Easy, Gentle, Quick and Sure A famous chemist, some years ago, discovered a way to end corns. A surgical dressing house of world-wide repute adopted and produced it. Millions of people use this instant relief and quickly rid themselves of throbbing corns. The method is Blue-jay liquid or plaster. One applies it by a touch. The pain stops instantly, and the whole corn quickly loosens and comes out. Old, harsh methods are supplanted by it. So with corn pads, so with paring. All such ways are folly. Try Blue-jay on one corn now and see. You will be delighted.

Chips and Slips American sport abounds in slang. - We think nothing of it until visiting athletes screw up their" brow t and look askance at us when they hear; some of it slung lavishly at them. ; r -.- H. A. Abrahams, sprinter on the Oxford track team, didn't savvy the word "dope" when he heard that the dope favored the English teams to win. Without slang our sports would lack much of their color. We are slang users and proud of it Reports that Miller Huggins might be displaced as manager of the New York Yankees have been quieted for the present. The reports had been current' around New York but Yank owners say they do not Intend to make a change in managers at this time. Babe Ruth's hitting was the big feature in New York's defeat of Philadelphia Thursday. The big elugger was responsible for four of the Yank' seven runs Tillia Walker, Athletics left fielder, made two doubles and a home run off LShawkey, of the Yanks, Thursday. This made 17 circuit drives for the youngster this season and it was the third straight day in which he has bounced the ball off the bleachers. The town council of a small community met to inspect the site for a cemetery- They assembled at a chapei, ana a3 it was a warm day they de cided to leave their coats there. "Some one can stay behind and watch them," suggested one of the members of the council. "What for?" demanded another member. "If we are all going out together, what need is there for anyone to watch the clothes?" Now and then the old question bobs up and an argument starts on th name of the greatest infielder baseball has ever known. An opinion is only an opinion. We still award the spring of laurel tf Hans Wagner as the greatest of all infield stars, where all the elements of defense, attack and earnest puipose are considered. No less a judge than John McGraw credits the old Pirate as being th mosj valuable ball player that eve; smote a double or stroked a double play Several Persian cities will be linked by a motorbus passenger line, the ve hicles being rebuilt American trucks.

Mr. Simmons declared his Republican colleagues were taking testimony in secret and that no record was beins ' made, so that other members of the committee would never know wha'. had happened.
