LEAGUERS TO
FORM UNION
Former Player Says Reports
of Organization are
All Fine.

New York. Aug. 9.-David Fultz. a
local lawyer, who was formerly a star
o%uthelder with the New York Aneri-
cans and the Philadelphia Americans.
admitted yesterday that umor OF
activities onward forming a union Of
big league baseball players We're true.
Fultz who is leading in the organi-
cation admitted that members Of the
National league clubs met in his OF
fees last Sunday. and that American
league players met secretly in New
York two weeks earlier. All sixteen
clubs Of the two leagues we're repre-
sented either by person or by proxy
he declared.
There is nothing OF a trade union
nature about this" said Fultz. The
players are simply binding themselves
TO an organization to which they can
look as a o r Of protective assocai-
ton in case they have grievances
with the men who conduct the big
league affairs. Under no circum.
stances will the organization be at.
dliated with the American Federation
Of Labor.
Fultz said there were certain mat
phases of a ball players life which
the players believe they can change
for the better by binding themselves
together. and when complaints come
up a protective players association
could arhitrate the dispute with the
national commission. Fultz said tina,
in a short time a full statement Of the
progress of the new union would be
made.
Chicago. Aug. a.-President B. B.
Johnson Of the American league i,
not opposed to a baseball PLAYERS
protective association. which was out
lined in a recent meeting IN New
York of major league players. John
son said last night hat a union mod.
elled OF the lines Of the labor unions
probably would not be tolerated. bu,
he saw no reason why players should
not have an organization TO proceed
along legitimate lines OF boosters
for the game.
He was not in a position to say
whether the proposed association
would be admitted to the national
commission.

M'Carty Only Demonstrates
Gameness in Stewart Scrap

New York. Aug. 9.-Luther McCar-
ty Of Springfield. Mo-. is a. white
despair" Until he met Jim Stewart
Of Brooklyn at the Garden A. c.. the
fans of f1stiana hoodwinked them
selves into the belief that he might
he a white hope" but he'll never,
never do.
1t will take a and years of ex-
perience for him before he is able to
act like a real second rater. By that
time he will have been killed If he
meets the kind of opposition necessary
to develop class.
McCarty has just one fighting attri.
butte. He doesn't know when he is
whipped. He will o admit defeat.
For eight of the ten rounds he kept
Madison Square Gardens countless
thousands in the highest pitch of ex-
element. He was one of the few
"dubs" that ever appeared in Gotham
who got an ovation after a disappoint-
ing showing. He drew the hand
through his sheer gameness alone,
Stewart is no champion. yet he
looked like a champion with the big
green farmer boy. Jim has a repu.
tation Of a faint heart. yet after the
first round he fought the fight Of his
life. He knew McCarty after the frs,
few seconds and knew that he was
harmless.

ceipt Of a letter of inquiry concern

from points within the state and Mon

ce'ved from Texas.
The premium list will be ready to

McCarty has strength. that lets him
out. He is absolutely unskilled. He
packs a crushing wallop in either
mitt. but has not the faintest idea
how to onnec with it.
For more than three-quarters of
the time Luther was tagging helpless
~ about the ring. 1t looked as If Il
good punch would lay him away.
Stewart connected with the punch not
once. but a hundred times. yet he
never had the westerner in sore
straits. So much for McCarty and
his garneness.
He is no white hope-at least not
now.
All that McCarty knows is to rush
in. wide open. failing away at ram
dom. He depends on one wild walloY
going home. That's how he stopped
Carl Morris. no doubt.
McCarty looked immense the first
couple of rounds. from sheer reck-
lessness and strength.
1t was a different story when Stew
art sized him up. He hit Stewart and
hit him hard frequently. But he hit
him wherever he happened to land
his haphazard swings. 1t looked
half the time as if he scarcely knew
where he was. save for the brute in
stinct that kept him going always
after his foe.

Pain Is Quickly Soothed.

A few minutes in the hands of a
trained operator made a world Of dif-
ference in every ONE Of them. The spe-
cial applicators made to reach the seat
of pain in the muscles OF the back went
right to the spot that felt 50 sore,
soothed away the pain and stimulated
the muscles OF the back. so that warmth
and vigor and strength took the place
Of chill and WEAKNESS and aching.
Some had gout-that painful, deform-
ing malady, caused by the blood ieav-
ing uric acid in the form of chalk in

amazing how quickly these were re-
lieved. When treated with drugs ana

IN its effects. Hands that had long
been well-nigh useless were given back
their suppleness in few minutes, and
the pain was taken away even quicker
than that.
Little children there were, VINO had
suffered from infantile paralysis: and
there were older persons VINO had been

disuse were wasting away.
