Just a little easy sparring." They shook hands, squared away and spared for a few seconds. Then the Kid backed away and, seemingly oblivious to the presence of Maher in the ring, be- gan to look around the crowd as if in search of some familiar faces. Maher was watching him intently. Was that stance a trick of the Kid $ , Maher pondered over it. At last he de cided 1t wasn't. And then the memory of that knockout by the Kid 10 years or so before came to him. It kindled ? fierce anger in the Irish bosom ot Maher. He remember, too, that the Kid had called him an ''old fossil' just re- gently. He'd show Kid Mccoy!
 Maher, fox-like, took a step forward. Mccoy did not move. Another step, and with the Kid still looking out into the audience. The Irishman steadied him self, doubled his huge right fist and let fly ''haymaker" for the jaw of Mccoy. And the nit happened!
 Mccoy, one of the brainiest trickiest men that ever stepped into the ring, hau assumed that apparently unprotected at titude in the hope of turing Maher into a swing. It did Within the very frac- ton of a second that Maher started hts terrific swing, leaving his jaw uncoV- cred. Mccoy whirled out of the range of the mighty blow and before Maher couli recover, Mccoy had hooked a right handler with crashing force to Peters jaw.
 Pete dropped as though struck by crowdbar. And the show was over.

.BARONS FAIL ID LOSE DURING WEEK Chicks and Vols Play in Bad Luck-Players Jump
 ing Teams

With players jumping their contracts to take up work in more useful lines before the draft takes them, Southern association managers are having a more or less hard time in their efforts to keep a creditable playing team together long enough to finish the remaining two weeks of the curtailed season. Birmingham spurt and Memphis and Nashville's slumps were the chief points of interest of the past week in the Southern association. Birmingham won six out of seven games and climbed from seventh place to the head of the second division. Memphis won only two games out of nine and fell from fourth to sixth place. Nashville lost six out of eight games and fell to seventh place.
 New Orleans played in form, winning six. losing one and increasing it's lead over Little Rock.
 Little Rock lost little ground, only winning three out of seven games, but is still safely in second place.
 Mobile won four out of seven games and easily held on to third place.
 Chattanooga lost as many games as they won but were forced upward a notch when MeihpnlS leil lHlo llle plt.
 Atlanta again lost a majority of their games and have no doubt cinched their hold on the 1918 cellar.
 Nothing definite has yet been an- nounced in regard to the proposed new six-club circuit. It is understood that its promoters are waiting for a spe- cial ruling by Provost Marshal General Crowder in regard to how the work or fight order will apply to baseball play CTS before going further into the propo- SitiOu.

Memphis, Tenn, June 16.-Lukc Ncl- son, right handed pitcher, has been sold by Memphis to the New York Americans. Deals are now on which will probably result in Dixie Carroll, an outfielder and Dazzy Vance, a pitcher. being sold to the New York Tanks. Press Cruthers, second base man. has been sold to Indianapolis, in the American association. Leon Do- bard and Angel Aragon, both infield- CTS, will probably be sold to the In dianapolis club. as deals are pending.

German Secret Ciphers

From EverybodyS.
 One means of communication With her agents that Germany has kept open despite the most rigorous censorship is the geometrical code described in detail by Melville Davisson Post in Everybodys.
 Suppose the goemetrical figure, for example, to be an equilateral triangle. The dimensions of the sheet of paper, at the bottom of the sheet, is the base of the triangle. This is sufficient data with which to construct the other two sides. and the message appears from the worlds which these lines touch: reading up the left arm of the triangle and down the right.
 "If the figure is a simple circle, it is the largest circle that can be placed upon the sheet of paper on which the letter is written; or it is the largest circle that can be drawn on the sheet or paper at certain equal distance on all side from the border. But as a rule, the geometrical figure would be little more complicated"

PELICAN BOSS HOT UNDER THE COLLAR fi- Jules Heinemann Says He Was Victim of Vile
 Plot Here
By nLINKEY HORNE.

Whether a six-club circuit in Dtxieland Is salvaged from the wreckage of the Baugh boat. posterity will have plenty of thrilling chapters to read concerning the discoveries made by the self-ap- pointed chemists in their autopsy on the cotton country corpse.
 For just now the gas attacks being launched from New Orleans by Jules Heinemann against everybody in general and chubby Carles Frank in particular outdo any poisonous clouds which ever f1oated from a Teuton trench.
 Jules would have us believe that the Surland society was butchered merely because the rival mags become dis gruntled over the runaway race being made by the Pelicans." If you take the word of the Louisiana magnate, the plot against J. Caesar was a friendly visit alongside the vile conspiracy matched by c Frank, Bob Allen and Tom Watkins.
 The Cracker chieftain was the Brutus who plunged the dagger into the vitals of the Dixie circuit; Bob Allen, the Cassius whose poinard came out stained with the very gizzard blood of the Southern, and Thomas Watkins, the Casca, who lent a helping hand to the hog killing. That is, to hear Jules Heinemann tell it.. Jules appears to be somewhat peeved oyer the situation.

BOTH BOSTON CLUBS HAVE GREAT WEEK Cubs, Indians and Dodgers Also Fare Well--Reds
 Lose All

| New York, June 16.-The Boston and Philadelphia teams bettered their posi- dons in the National league and the Cleveland and St Louis clubs in the American league during the last week | The leader in each circuit-Chicago in the National and Boston in the Ameri- can-successfully maintained it's place, | The Cubs won four and lost two games, while the Red Sox won five and lost three, counting today's defeat in St. | Louis.
 I In the National league Boston, through it's excellent work and the poor play. 1 ing of Cincinnati, fought it's way into a l tie with the Reds for third place. Gin 1 cinnatf dropped all four of it's games. Bostons rise was accomplished by win ming four times and losing only twice. Rudolph earning two of these victories. one a shutout, and Fillingim and Nehf one each Pittsburg losing five contests l of six played dropped back into sixth place, and Philadelphia, breaking even during the week, took the Pirates place at the head of the second division. In the American league Cleveland s climb into third and a battle between Washington and St. Louis for the nom-
 nal honor of leading the second bracket were the features of the weeks play.
 Cleveland's advance was attained by winning five out of seven games, includ ing today's victory over Philadelphia. while Chicago was unable to do better than break even, including the defeat which the world champions administered to Washington today.
 In the battle for fifth place Wash ington and St. Louis alternated during the week. which closed with St. LoIis at the front. Each team won four games and lost three, not counting the games today.
 New York lost an opportunity to go to the front in the National. being uli- able to accomplish more than holding the leaders from Chicago to an even break in the four games these teams played here.
 Tn connection with the fall of the Chicago Americans from third place to fourth, three shutout victories inflicted within four days upon the champions by the Boston pitching staff were nota ble.
 Detroit, with an opportunity to leave the cellar in a series with Philadelphia. won only two games out of Tour against the Athletics.

boys in khaki.
 Fentress will very likely work for Memphis today. but Moley is unde- cided as to his moundsman Dixie Walker. Carl Black and Tommy Long are all ready to pitch and one of them will be given an opportunity The Baron chieftain is making strong bid for a first division berth, and will undoubtedly land there if his hench- men continue to put out the brand of ball they have been playing for the past 10 days Not a single game was lost last week and eight of the last nine contests have been won by the locals.
 Chattanooga. who is occupying the last notch in the upper -four" has lead of little over one game on the Barons and. inasmuch as they have to play New Orleans and Mobile all this week. it looks pretty soft for Moley. The chubby one is anxious to keep his record of nine years in the first divi- i sion, unmarred, even by a shortened { schedule and he can be depended upon to make the games this week worth while.
 2 Scribes over the circuit are comment { ing very favorably on the attitude of players during the last games of the season. It seems that everyone thought i that as soon as it was announced that baseball would die on June 2Sth. play CTS would begin to stall through their games and make every remaining con- ttest a farce, but the opposite has been true and it reflects credit on the men who compose Southern league clubs.
