by the board of directors Of the or
ganiaation, which ended conference
here early yesterday On the third
Saturday in September a meeting of

In announcing the action the direc-
tors said that it was because Mr..

cause of his generous support of all
things that have aided in the advance
ment of the independent circuit J.
A. Gilmore, club owner Of Chicago,
will act as president during Mr.. Pow

Floyd Rickert Of ST Louis, the secre-

in the season, would be a strong can

FRED Is UNBIASED.

OF ali the most disgraceful affairs
ever staged in connection with minor
league baseball, this affair at Peoria
takes the plum. Bernie Smith, of the
Star. and Jack Shields, of the Herald
Transcript, not satisfied with calling
each other all the hard names possible,
came to blows Thursday. Now the
big dub on the Journal, who does not
know enough to get real news into hi1
sheet, takes advantage of the oppor-
tunity to take a good rap at Smith
and furnishes the natives with a col
umn and one-half of stuff on the Smith
Shields encounter. If the Peoria
scribes don; get next to themselves
soon they will put the game on the
blink over there. Pity poor Meidroth
and Russell for having TO work with
such a gang.

CUBS MUTILATE
BROOKLYN GANG
Rival Forces Pole 80 Hits, But
Cubs Top the Heap by
1875 Count.

Chicago. Aug 4.-Batting averages
were padded on the West Side yes
terday. Running true to form and
precedent, the Cubs and Dodgers put
or a swatfest of high degree-one of
those smuggling bees you read about,
but seldom see. Thirty hits of as
sorted caliber were unbuckled by the
strenuous athletes, good for a total
of 30 bases. Each Iside poled 10
safeties, but the Trojans made the
most of their efforts, romping to vic
tory in the opener, IL to 5.
Luck trailed with Jim Lavender
throughout the combat. Though the
MonteGuma spit-baller was larruped
freely, he managed TO keep the hostile
base runners well in hand save in
two innings-the fourth and ninth.
The Dodgers were in ferocious mood,
especially Messrs. Stengel, Cutshaw
and Fisher. The former unloaded a
homer and triple Cutshaw inserted a
triple and two singles and so did
Fisher. The invading host made th>.r

home folks reeled off a total of 2S

Boston, Mass.-Bill Carrigan, new
manager of the Boston Red Sox, has
a tough job. Everybody admits that
he has a harder row to hoe than Frank
Chance, from whom nothing is ex-
pected for a few years at least.
CarTigan has fallen heir to a badly
disorganized team, and one which has
been all but wrecked by frequent in
juries. Just now his playing outfit
consists of Iris Speaker, who receives
some fair assistance in the outer gar
dens from Duffy Lewis and Harry
Hooper Gardner and Wagner have
fallen off in their work because of
frequent injuries. and Steve Yerkes
is not performing brilliantly. Ray Col
Inns is showing class in the box, but
the other hurlers are below par.
Yet this is the outfit which won the
worlds championship last year and
from which much is still expected this
season. If Carrigan doesn't pull the
team through in good shape he may
be put down by the fans as a failure.
Bill can do things with the Boston
Red 'Sox IL anybody can. 1t has always
been recognized that he has the base
ball brains" He put in four years at
Holy Cross. taking his studies 'on the
side" He Joined Boston in 1906 and
has been with that team practically
ever since. He did especially good
work last year, and his friends have
always claimed that he was the di,
rector general who made the 1912 pen.
nant possible for the Red So&.
It's upon his gameness as much as
his baseball knowledge that the
friends of the Boston manager rely for
him to make success. He doesn't
know what it is to be afraid on the
ball field, and he has always been
daring in his work of directing the
Red Sox play. He is twenty-nine years
old, so has the right to dispute with
Joe Birmingham of the Cleveland Maps
for the title of The Boy Manager

morning and spent the hour before
the game working on the diamond cut

hard, but admitted that it was big
job on which a dozen men should get

Manager O'Leary of the Davenport
team said yesterday that the averages
issued by the league are a huge joke
and that one of the 800 hitters at
least is not batting over 200. The
averages should be revised by com
petent statisticians and the work
should be done without delay. Incor-
rect averages are worse than none at

Boomers down to two hits and score
less. the Turks winning l to 0.
Lakaff certainly was strong in the
Dinches Friday, and there was but
two times that Bloomington had a
ghost of show TO put across any run
ners. Bull" really deserved a one
hit game, as he had Vinson beat to the
