for the one run that the smuggling

over in the time of a bitter onslaught
of the Giants against Albert Bender,

Going to extremes in all things

White Sox into humiiiating defeat yes

The score was to o. 1t was more than
victory; 1t was a landslide.
Jim Scott, the sturdy curve ball ar

the slab, and apparently in the best of
form, but he took the worst licking
of the season when in the sixth and
seventh rounds the Cubs went into
tantrums of athletic prowess and
whaled the ball all over the lot.
On the slab for the Trojan army was
Bert HUMPHREYS. the meekest man in
the national game, so far is known.
Nearly $4,000 persons were gathered
together for the afternoon of sport
and it looked as If Mr.. HUMPHREYS
was the only one who didn't expert

HUMPHREYS stood out on the rubber
and heaved deadly curves and fast
balls over the plate with his decep-

hand jabs of Tommy had its effect on
Homelands face and he was bleeding
from the nose and mouth and had
badly discolored eye.
Tague's exhibition of last night
demonstrates the fact that he has i'm
proved greatly since his recent bat
tie. The fact that Homeland has
fought Marty McCue gives Tommy
great credit and will help him in Sc
curing future bouts.
Shortly before the preliminaries the
clubroom was well filled and the be-
havior of the crowd was praised by
Chief of Police Martin. Not a dis
turbance marked the events OF the
evening.
