 Havana.-American marines have landed on Cuban soil. To the number of 450 under command of Col. Lucas they came ashore at Ciamanera and proceeded by train to Guantanamo City.

WELSH NJ HAYES
GO TO A DRAW

Winnipeg, Aug. 7.--Freddie Welsh,
the game little British tighter. and
Grove: Hayes of Philadelphia boxed
twelve clever rounds to a draw in the
Auditorium rink before the largest
crowd that attended a bout since Sam
l-angford appeared here with Tony
Caponi as an opponent. The eXhi-
bition was a treat to lovers OF the
finer points of the game. and while
there was little of the heavy hitting
that has characterized some of the
more recent bouts. the finish Of the
boxers more than repaid the spec
tators for the lack of gore.
Welsh had it on his opponent in
the matter of foot work, and MAS
greatly superior in speed. Hayes on
the other hand was there with the
wicke dpunch that spelt disaster. but
here again the cleverness of the
Welshman aided him in avoiding dan
ger. Hayes in attempting to get into
close quarters to get at Welsh's body
covered up his face and took several
punches each time in order to get
an opening for his body swings. The
crowd for some unaccountable ca
son too umbrage at this, and boot
ed the American boxer on several oc-
casions. These same tactics have
been used here many times by Mike
Gibbons. and there was no such harsh
criticism of the boxers methods. Even
when Hayes had battered his way into
close quarters Welsh's fast work kept
hi maway from vital punches.

Proposed to Give Pennant to the Gel.
lar Champs.
A suggestion has been made by a
number of Louisville fans which they
contemplate putting up to the asso-
citation authorities. Their plan is to
have two divisions for the ~associa-
ton race. One division is to consist
of Louisville and Indianapolis, and
the other clubs for first place and one
between Louisville and Indianapolis
for last place. In this way the strug>
gle between Louisville and Indian
apolis for the cellar will he given
dignity and an aloofness that it does
not possess. 1t will be a real fight in
stead of a trail. The Louisville fans
have also noticed a new habit the
Co'onels are forming. 1t is a habit
of winning on Sunday. They won
a game last Sunday and one the Sun
day before. 1t is believed the Col
onels have determined to win every
Sunday game. even il they lose every
other day. BY keeping this up they
will be assured of some percentage at
the close Of each season.

He is death to fly balls. and is par
ticularly strong for those nifty little
Texas leaguers that usually drop back
of the infield before anybody can get
under them-unless it be "Heine."
Similarly. most ground balls that
are jabbed into that territory are
Wagner's prey. He cover all Of the
wide stretch between Steve Yerkes
and Larry Garner. and neither Gard
ner nor Yerkes needs move far out
Of his position. for Wagner trails
away into their territory.
He takes the balls "clean"-that is,
he gets the grounders and the bound
ers %squarely in his two hands without
the preliminary Juggling that retards
so many infelders. If the hits are
too wide for a two-handed stop Wag-
ncr has Il spectacular way of stab
hing them with one hand. the bare
one or the Eloved one alike.
Throws From Any Position.
Then the throw. Wagner
does not wait to get into position.
He throws from nearly any position.
Hits to deep shortfield are likely to
be safe ones unless the stop is quick
and clean and the throw is like a
bullet. That is "Heine's" speciality
bullet throws. and no other infeld-
er III elther league can beat him al
them. The hall goes with tremendous
speed, in a straight line n is rare
ly inaccurate.
Wagner now and then fumbles one
or throws awkwardly when somebody
runs in front of him; that is one OF
his few weaknesses.
Wagner overs second base for
most of the throws to head off base
runners. When the n starts off
first "Heine" usually waits to see il
1t is a hit and rum" play. and is
drawn out of position less by those
plays than most of the other short
stops.
Otherwise he hikes for the bag. He
takes the catcher's throw ON a run
usually in hand then blocks of
the base completely so that the rum
ner can't touch it.
Wagner is fearless. He is one OF
the few who pay no attention to Ty
Cobb's steam-engine, feet-foremos,
dives, for instance. In the Detroit
series, Wagner calmly sat before the
bag and waited for Cobb to slide in
Ty was II Il.

around "Heine" Wagner now revolves
a team that has ''heaten everything
in the American league. and looks
like it might wear we'll the title of

Key of the Infcld.
Wagner is the pivot of the Red
Sox leaders. He is the key OF the
infield, and. without "A stone wall in
field. or something like one. the Red
Sox could never have approached first
place. Some critics even claim that
Wagner is the best shortstop in the
American league.
The Red Sox have had the best de-
~fensive outfield in the league-prob-
ably the best in the world-for a long
time. Last year the pitchers did not
work up to championship form and
the infeld was a patchwork all sea-
son. Wagner's arm went bad and he
had to play second base. when he
played at all.
Asecond-division team resulted.
This year the pitchers are going
well;" Wagner is himself again. and
the infeld--with Jake Stahl back in
harness-inishes the championship
baseball outfit.
Wagner is the nan who adds to the
team just what was needed to win
the pennant. His return to form
has given the other infielders conf
dence. They are the ballast; he is
the driving power.
Clean and Sure Player.
