The following spring he comes back
like an Australian boomerang. If the
robins failed to see him out on the diamond, when they trip north each year they'd think they had mad a mistake and fly back south again. Seventeen years ago Daubert shook the dust of the Pennsylvania coal
$mmes from his feet and began play
ing baseball. He started out as a hurler with the Lykens, Pa., team and it was there that he made an amazing
discovery as a pitcher, he was an
excellent first baseman. So he left
the box, walked over to the initial sack and has played on that position ever since. Jake's name can be found among the five leading hitters in the Na
tional league which isn't so bad for a bird they were hanging the crepe on long before the Brooklyn Dodgers traded him to Cincinnati.
All the way round, old Jake is show

the younger stars should take a day

Butt Not to Retire From Ring, Says Manager NEW YORK, July 13. Johnny -Buff, who was suspended with Joe Lynch, new bantamweight champion, pending investigating by the New York state athletic commission of financial arrangements In connection with their contest, will not retire from the ring, his manager, Lew Diamond, declared today in denying reports to that effect. "Buff intends to rest for three or four weeks and after that will be propared to defend his flyweight championship against any contender who appears to have a chance," Diamond said. The commission suspended Buff and Lynch as well as their managers, after investigating the charge that Lynch guaranteed Buff $30,000 in case the latter lost his title and that because of the small gate receipts was obliged f to pav the former champion J9.150.35

BOBBY'S STILL AT IT. This dapper little golfer from Atlanta, Ga., who set the sport world on fire three years ago with his spectacular playing while yet in short trousers, has failed to date to win a national championship but he isn't discouraged. He gave his usual commendable account of himself in the recent, national open championship tourney at Chi
cago. Jones is twnty-one. He gave the golf world a real thrill in 1919 when he played such brilliant golf in the national amateur tournament at Oakmont that he went into the finals. S. Davidson Herron defeated him in the title, match but was iorced to extend himself. Jones reached the semi-final round in 1920 and last year was headed for the semi-finals at least until Willie Hunter eliminated him. In the national open tourney in 1920 Jones tied fourth place and finished fourth last year. While Jones never has annexed a
national title he has held many sectional championships. He won the Southern title earlier this season for
the third time.
He accompanied the American team to Great Britain last season. He was eliminated in the British meet in the
fourth round by Allen Graham. His form and brilliant play interested British experts, however.
Practically all of the big league managers have tried to keep their players away from the bones and the cards. They know that a player who drops two or three weeks' salary in one day at the track cannot keep his mind on the game and they know also that
players who scorch their eyes out in tmoke during an all-night session around the table cannot have their eye on the ball the next day.
Commissioner Landis recently gathered the players of the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yanks around him in the Boston club house and gave them a lecture about gambling. There was nothing significant in the audience that he picked. He is visiting all the clubs and passing out the same warning. The commissioner told them that some of the players were betting too much on the horse races and were being seen too much in the company of professional track gamblers. He pointed out that their first duty was to retain the trust of the fans who make their profession possible and he warned that he would toss out of baseball anyone who disregarded his orders to keep themselves above suspicion on and off the field.
Commissioner Landis, however, is the first one to point ont that the public ought to have a little consideration.

Whitewater Will Meet New Madison Sunday NEW MADISON, Ohio, July 13. A
real baseball battle is in view for Sun
day afternoon on the home diamond. Whitewater is coming strong for a win over the locals, and they are reputed to. have a classy nine. New Madison will stick to their old lineup and use Money and Gary for the mound work and receiving duties, respectively. Whitewater will have Mercer on the firing line. He has been going like a house afire this season, only last Sunday pitching a one hit game against the Richmond K. of C. nine. Hatfield
probably will catch for the visitors.
By FHAKX O. MK7TKB A broken heart brought death to
one of the greatest pitchers that ever lived Charlie "Old Hoss" Radbourne.
And the pathos of It lies la the fact that It was all caused by the herculean sacrifice made by Radborne in 1884, when he pitched 27 consecutive games, winning 26 and a championship for his team. The pages of baseball history record
many sterling deeds, many remam-
agle performances and many aston
ishing occurrences. But as long as the game endures there will never be written a chapter of such immortal glory as that which concerns Radbourne. A quarter of a century ago they didn't have 20 or 25 men on a big league roster. A dozen was considered extravagance. The usual quota was eleven. But In 1884 the great Providence team hit the stretch in the campaign with only nine men. .
Radbourne and Charlie Sweeney were the pitchers. WTien one was in the box the other played outfield. The two pitchers, among the brightest stars of their time, had kept Providence in the pennant fight and about five week's before the season's close they were well up in first division,
and had an outside chance to wnip me league-leading Phillies in the final flag fight And then one afternoon during practice. Sweeney revolted. He announc
ed that he was a pitcher not an out-1
fielder. He said that we wouia pucn on his pitching days, ut that he would loaf on the other afternoons. When the manager ordered him to play the outfield, he announced that he w&s through, took off his uniform and never played with. Providenee again. Providence played with eight men that day, the two outfielders trying tn rnvpr the three gardens. And
Providence was given a terrible beating. Ready to Disband . The next day the owners of the club
met in special session to decide upon the club's future. The manager reported it was utterly impossible to get another real pitcher to replace Sweeney. The directors felt that the club, with only one experienced pitcher, would be "but a football for the other teams to kick around. It had been decided to disband the club for the year. Word of the contemplated action got to Radbourne. He hurried to the meeting room, got an audience with the directors and said: "If you gentlemen will hire an outfielder, I will pitch every game remaining of this season's schedule. I ask your permission to do this rather than bring about the disbanding of a team which I think still has a chance
to win the pennant. The amazing offer was accepted. Anri thpn Radbourne began the per-
rnrmnnrA nf the most brilliant and
most astounding feat In all baseball
history. , "Old Hoss" pitched 27 straight games for his team and won 26 of them. At least a half dozen shutouts were included. The only defeat ho i-r tv,no-vi thnsA 27 eames was a
two to one triumph secured by Buffalo, which team garnered only five hits and won on errors.
Endures Suffering. The suffering and the agony which Radbourne endured through the last thre weeks was terrific. After each game he would go to his room and massage his arm. The night after ha had pitched his twelfth game his arm hung lifeless at his side. He paid the hotel porter ?2 to apply hot towels and liniment to the arm all through the night. In the morning Radbourne s arm was so stiff that he. could not lift a brush to his hair, yet that afternoon he shut out the enemy on the ball field . 4 So excruciating was the pn in his nitchine arm through the last ten days
that Radbourne several times bad to
call in a doctor to give him sometning to Rive him ease and sleep.
Through it all KaaDourne never whimpered, never murmured. He never admitted his suffering to any of
his mates. He kept secret from them the fact that he was hiring porters to massage his arm, and that he had
CAMBRIDGE, July 13. Liberty will furnish the opposition against the local Grays here Sunday afternoon. Local fans predict one of the best games of the season. Inasmuch as both teams have strengthened lineups and hold considerable rivalry. Battery work for the Liberty nine probably will be done by Rosson on the mound and Knight behind the bat. Batson is slated to hurl for Cambridge and Stickler will catch.
EXGELLO TO INVADE EATON GAMP SUNDAY
EATON, July 13. Excello will send a baseball team to meet Eaton on the local diamond Sunday afternoon. The
visitors are rated as a fast ball club
and capable of making things inter
esting for Eaton. Harmon, of Dayton, propably will do the pitching for the home team and Kirby will receive
behind the bat.
Eldorado Ball Club Plays
Phillipsbnrg Nine Sunday PHILIPSBURG, July 13 Eldorado's crack ball nine will invade the local camp for a game Sunday afternoon. The visitors are going good, having won their last few starts over some strong nines. Eldorado's hurler, Juday, is one of the best in this sec
tion, and he is well supported in the
field, and behind the plate by Raut-
saw .
Although the locals have , not met the strongest teams in this section,
they expect to win Sunday's fray from
the visitors.

PRUITT STRIKES OUT -RUTH THREE TIMES (By Associated Press) -NEW YORK July 13. Knocking Waite Hoyt out of the box, the St Louis Browns evened the crucial series with the Yanks by taking the second game, 7 to 4, and today held a lead of a game- and a half over their New York rivals. Hub Pruitt, sensational young southpaw, struck out Babe Ruth three times, once with tho bases full, and Ken Williams hammered out his twenty-first homer. The Giants Increased their lead to four and one-half games as a result 'of driving Alexander . to cover and downing the Cubs for the second timo, 5 to 1. while Philadelphia upset St.
Louis In both ends of a double header, checking the Cardinals winning streak of ight straights. Rogers Hornsby rapped out his twenty-third homer of the season. Ty Cobb's five hits and Harry Heilmann's fourteenth home run helped the Tigers beat the Athletics 7 to 3, while Cleveland hit Karr and Pennock for 20 hits, all of them singles, and won from Boston, 11 to 7. The Brooklyn Dodgers sustained their seventh straight setback in the west, losing to Cincinnati, 4 to 1. Yellowhorse outpitched Frank Miller, but the Pirates could not hit in the pinches, and Boston won, 4 to 3. Urban Faber let Washington down with four hits and Chicago was victorious 4 to 1, Mostil collecting a sin

pitch every game and he pitched them and won a baseball championship for his club. Up to that time Radbourne was the greatest pitcher in the game. But the terrific ttrain practically killed his arm. He had sacrificed a dozen years of baseball greatness for his mates anrt his bosses. Radbourne continued with Providence for a few years but the old power had gone from his arm. He was released to Cincinnati and when the opposition smashed and hammered his offerings to all parts of the field
in the few starts "Old Hoss" made for
the Reds, he was released. ' . And baseball knew him no more. He went to his home In Bloomington (111.), and opened up a billiard
academy. There he sat day after day
brooding over the defeats which had
come to him in his closing years as a pitcher. He refused to talk baseball
and through the late year of his life
melancholia gripped him to such an ex- j
tent that he rarely talked at all. The heart, once the bravest and stoutest that baseball ever has known, broke at last under the strain of grief and Radbourne died in 1897 six years after his diamond career had ended and 13 years after he had made himself a baseball immortal.
