HAMMOND GOLFERS
LOSE THEIR MATCH
Team Weakened by Loss of
Stars, Succumbs to
Michigan City.

The golf players of the Hammond
Country Club were defeated by the
Pottawottamie Club of Michigan City
last Saturday afternoon by a score of
so to and the defeat was largely due
to the on-participation in the match
by ten of the local clubs best players.
Four of the Hammond squad failed to
show UP at the Country Club in the Lee
porte county town until after the pair
ings because of the ditching of a ma
chine between Schererville and Merrill
Vile and this weakened the team con-
siderably. Several of the Hammond
stars were unable to get away. The
locals were treated with magnificent
hospitality by Michigan City and a re-
turn match will be given the latter in
Hammond next month.

BESSEY'S
STUCK To
THEIR BEDS

Jack Bessey's actors were in bed Sun
day morning when they we're supposed
TO play THE TIMES employes-and they
showed some real common sense.
An actor who is called Young pitched
for Besseys troupe. and showed some
real steam. THE TIMES bunch thought
he had just come from the big league
but he said he played in the orchestra
with Joe Winxler another actor who
stuck to first base during those hot
seven innings. Now those two lads, the
orchestra pair. were the only repre-
sentatives of Bessey and the remainder
of the team made up of big league
stuff-while THE TIMES played true blue
and stuck to its original agreement and
only allowed its employees to play. And.
of course. The TIMES lost, TO 5. that's
the reason the score follows the alibi.
Outside of four accidents the game
was not marr3d. One fellow slid half
way from second to home after three
outs had been called-but that's all in
the game.

POPULAR
MANAGER
BY Il. G. HAMILTON

Omitted Press Star Corrsspondent.)
NEW YORK. July 16.--One of the
most popular league managers who
ever piloted a team in the National
league was headed to minor leaguedom
or private life when Jimmy Callahan
drew his release from the Pittsburgh
league club. In spite of the fact that
he has twice registered failures in the
big show Callahan is respected as
smart baseball leader. a fine developer
of pitchers. and a gentleman.
Callahan first was a major league
manager in Chicago. stepping in there
after brilliant career as pitcher and
outfielder. Backed by Charles Cornis-
keys open purse he attempted to lead
the White Sox to another pennant. but
his efforts were failures. He developed
a marvellous pitching staff, one that
ranked with the best. Red Faber. Mel
Wolfgang, Eddie Cicotte, Jim Scott. Reb
Russell, Ray Schalk. Happy Felsch and
other Chicago stars went to the Windy
City under his regime.
When he was let out by Comiskey he
went to the Pacific Coast league and
plans were laid for him to run q club
there until Barney Dreyfus decided on

fact that he was willed team that
would hardly have been good minor

his whole heart and tried hard to pro-
duce something. Experiment after ex-
pertinent did nothing for the clubs bet
terment In addition he was guilty of
several mistakes that made him decided
~ unpopular with certain members of
the club Then the fans began to roar.
There was nothing left but to give him
the gate.
The release Of Douglas Baird. an in
fielder, was one Of Callahan's mistakes;
his attempts to discipline Al Mamaux
was another. Both cost ball games for
the Pittsburgh club. Mamaux is one OF
the best pitchers in the league-Baird
one of the most timely hitters.
In spite of his failures and his errors
Callahan goes from the National league
with the good wishes of every manager
and owner in the circuit.

GAS is WANTED
Commissioners Asked to Produce Ii

Topeka is compelled to pay a big
price for gas and then can't get it
The fields and supply pipes not fur
nishing it, a number of people now
claim the city commissioners should
produce the supply by enactlng an
ordinance.
Four citizens appeared before the
city commission this morning, asking
pthat an ordinance be passed, Ito re-
strict the use of gas to cooking pur-
poses, that the workingmen at this
time may not be compelled to buy
coal ranges when there is no coal, and
be compelled to stand the loss attend
ant upon the present installation of
pipes and stoves, as we believe that II
the force pumps and furnaces are cut
off. there will be plenty of gas for
domestic purposes and we will not
have to go breakfastless and supper
less to work, in order that the man of
means may have more than his share
of the meager supply"
Those who appeared before the
commission were Frank B. Brown, w.
II. kerle, Charles H. Danner and Roy
Hope. The first three represented the
working people. Hope said he repre-
| scented the business men and manu-
facturers. The subject was taken I'M

The citizens of the city may use gas
in their furnaces or in their manufac-
turing plants, according to the mayor,
1 just so the supply is gotten legally
| The gas is paid for and can be used
in any way the consumers see fit,
that was the idea that the mayor had
| on the question. Police regulations
would not be effective if they were
| legal, he stated.
The fact of the matter is that the
people of Topeka are not now using
| gas for either heating or cooking, the
| price is too high and the commodity
| too uncertain. People as a rule are
| heating by coal and coal oil and they
are cooking by coal and coal oil. Thou
sands of coal oil stoves have been put
in by Topeka householders during the
last thirty days and they are found
quite satisfactory, cheaper than gas
