class to take and maintain a lead at
any time. Hammond played excellent
baseball and with Hess and Smith do
ing the slab work. the infleld helped out
by giving the pitching stan excellent
support.
Hammond started the game as IL
they would make one-sided affair of
it. when in the first inning they COM
menced a swatfest and scored three
runs They came back in the second
wit hone more, making them four runs,
while Blue Island failed to score. An
infeld error, two hits and three stolen
bases gave Hammond one run in the
fourth frame.
Blue Island scored their first run in
the fourth when Smiths arm went bad
and he passed four men in succession,
forcing in run. Hess was called in
from right field and with some brill
liant work he succeeded in holding the
men on the sacks. In the sixth Blue
Island scored their second run on an
error and two hits. Hammond then
braced up and the last three innings
saw a tight game, neither side being
able to score. Lineup;

HARBOR IS
INTERESTED
IN OUTCOME

Whether Senators shively and Kern
will be able to do anything for Indi-
ana Harbors interests in the matter OF
its harbor Improvement appropriation
is doubtful
This fact developed when a dispatch
from Washington stated that General
w. II. Bixby had recommended the ex-
penditure of s1.s4s.200 for the i'm
proyement of Indiana Harbor and an
investigation was started to see what
cooperation the people of Indiana Har-
Dor could expect from it's senators.
The following is the dispatch:
Washington, May 4.-Recognizing
the vast commercial industrial posi-
w. H. Bixby, chief of engineers of the
United States army. has just sent to
Congress a report recommending that
the large sum of s1.343.20o be expend-
ed In improving the harbor at Indiana
Harbor, Ind. This sum. he recon-
mends. should be used in constructing
a rubble mound breakwater In two
sections protecting the entrance to the
harbor, at an estimated cost of s1.03s.-
200 for first construction, with an adj
ditional $4,000 with which to con-
struct shore connections. Senator'S
Shively and Kern will try to secure
the appropriations recommended.
A. G. Lundquist of Indiana Harbor
stated that there would be a meeting
of the joint committee of commercial
clubs at the East Chicago club in East
Chicago tomorrow afternoon when a
decision will be reached as to what ac-
ton will be taken in he matter.
May Reopen Hearing.
1t seems that the committee on
commerce in the senate has closed its
hearings for the session but an effort
will be made to get them re-opened. II
this is done a delegation from the cities
of North township which are interest.
ed in this matter. will go to Washing
ton to see what can be done.
There are a number of powerful in
huences that are being brought to beal
on the senate to force some action By
the committee on commerce and it Ii
believed that the report of Genera
Bixby to congress is the result.
While the situation looks bad from
the viewpoint of the people of Indiana
Harbor on account Of the hostility o.
the Lorimer faction against the Indi
ana senators yet it is believed that thu
matter can be smoothed over and tina
the appropriation can be made thi!
session.
If the recommendations of the boars
of United States army engineers hat
not been made so late that 1T was i'm
possible to have the appropriation In
cluded in the house list of rivers ant
harbors appropriations 1t is believed
that Congressman E. d. Crumpacke
would have been able to slip 1t in.
The only chance of getting the ap
preparation through now is to have tn
senate committee make recommends,
ton that it be included and then hav

Stars anti-fiy campaign for the month OF
May entered on its last week today.
Burdette is nearly 100000 points ahead
of either of his closest rivals. Steiner
increased his score today by $500 flies,
which gives him a total of 5l,3JO. Fitz-
gerald's total to date is $500. Pupils
of the fourth grade OF the Brent Schools
are in fourth pace.
Health officials expect all Of the con-
testants considerably to increase their
scores this week, and they believe that
Burdettes showing for the month will be
close to a quarter of a million. The
record OF this competitor. in view of the
scarcity of flies this spring. they say IS
a phenomenal one.
