MAGMA DEVELOPS BIG
 VEINS OF RICH ROCK

Magma Copper company's net pro- duction last year. after deducting con centrating, smelling and refining losses. was 1O.14S.6S2 pounds of cop per. 537,994 ounces of silver and g. 978 ounces of gold.
 President Aldridge, in his remarks to stockholders, says in part:
 The costs of producing copper ad- vanced rapidly during the year, due principally to war conditions and to a lesser extent to the high develop ment costs and of the lower copper contents of the concentrate shipped
 During 1917 the No. shaft was sunk from 84 feet below the 1500 lev el to 3S feet below the 1900 level. A station was cut on the 1900 level and the main copper ore shoot was par tially developed on this level by four crosscuts located in an average dis tance of 60 feet apart
 These crosscuts show the vein av- erages 14.7 feet in width and assays 9.36% copper, 3.S2 ounces silver and .03 ounces gold.
 As all crosscuts are in ore of good grade, the possibility of lengthening present ore shoot is favorable Al though the average width of ore on this level is not as great as on some of the levels above. the ore is better grade and the results in general com pare very fayorably with any level developed to date in the mine. A sta ticn on the 1900 level is being cut at the present time and crosscutting to- wards the vein will soon be com menCed.
 The 1900 level was driven to the west and encountered the downward extension of the shoot of silver ore encountered on the west 1900 level in 1916. To date this drift shows 50 feet of ore. averaging 4S6 feet in width and assaying 211t copper, 20.53 ounces silver. .04s ounces gold, S3Gf lead and 9.S2k zinc. There are good possibilities of extending the length of this ore shoot.
 The following is an estimate of ore reserves: Reasonably assured cop per sulphide ore. 130.000 tons; req. sonably assured lead-zinc ore, 10000 tons, and probable silver sulphide ore 5000 tons.

DEMAREE Big
GIANT WINNER
Famous AL Most Consistent
Hurler on Giants Staff
This Season.

New York, July al Demaree
has been the most consistent winner
of the Giants pitchers this year.
Demaree has not only made a good
mark in the pitching averages this
season but he has been winning his
games against the best clubs in the
league.
When John McGraw recalled Dem
aree. many fans wondered how the
Giants could use him. In 1916, pitch
ing for Philadelphia. he was six
teenth in the lsague, and that was
his best season. He only worked In
games against the weaker teams of
part of the season with Chicago,
rowly escaped the also ran" column.
When the season started this year
McGraw was short of dependa ble
pitching material. Ferdy Schupp
was practically out of the game,
and slim" Sallee was not in condi-
tion. Jeff Tesreau turned out bad.
and McGraw was forced to depend
largely upon Anderson. Demaree and
his recruit material.
Al was then given the first real
chance Of his major league career.
He took his regular turn in the box
against all comers and his turn
came much more often than II ever
had before.
Demaree conquered his old failing
Of giving way in the sixth or sew
cnth frame. He has been holding UP
III hurling a much better brand
OF ball than ever before.

FOOTBALL WILL
BE CONTINUED
Gridiron Game Can Get
Along with So-called
Big Three.

New York. July 6.-Yale. Harvard
and Princeton have not yet decided on
a program for next. fall, and for some
reason or other q few persons believe
that the fate Of football hangs on
their decision. Whether they play or
not, the gridiron sport viii continue
and be more successful than last
year, when the big three" was con-
spicuous by its absence.
Once upon a time every one looked
up to Yale. Harvard and Princeton
for the latest things in football. They
set the pace and the others followed.
They settled the championship among
themselves because they walloped
every team they played. In the last
few years. however, some of the other
colleges stepped in and grabbed some
of the glory. Cornell, Dartmouth,
Tufts and others scored victories over
members OF the select three and the
old prestige waned.
Pittsburgh had the best football
team in the country for two years and
now occupies Che foremost position.
Pennsylvania also is good. as are
Dartmouth, Brown. West Virginia,
Georgia Tech and Penn State.
Whether or not the big Three" gets
back into the game. football will be
played and the champion team will
be selected from the entire Cnited
states instead OF that small pocket UP
in New England.

Big LEAGUES
RACES CLOSE
Pennant Scramble in Both
Circuits Promises Clubs
Bunched at Finish.

New York, July 6-The teams are
now ready to start down the back
stretch in the major leagues pennant
races and all Indications point to one
of the closest finishes and hottest
driving I'm the last furlong that have
ever marked a championship race.
Not only in the one league, but on
both major tracks are the races close.
The Jockeys" in the baseball sprint
are much better generals than those
Of other leagues. The wizard John
McGraw, may well be mentioned in
this connection as one of the better
riders Fred Mitchell. who is pilotins
the Cubs, also Is one Of the marvels
who has just outgrown his apprentice
ship.
The Browns have a new pilot and
have lost little ground by the ex-
pertinent.
Christy Mathewson Is one of the
disappointing jockeys in the national
race. Whether Jockey Mathewson
has not been urging his team enough
or has been using the lash IL can
not be determined from the press box.
but the Reds have been rearing and
acting up in bad shape on the track
The wiry Connie Mack must be
credited with being an efficient pilot.

he is making a commendable showing.
George Stallings, the miracle man.
as he was called when he brought
the Braves under the wire first in
tho National League race a few years
ago. is again proving himself capable
of handling his entry.
Clarence Rowland, the winning
jockey OF the American sweep
stakes and the worlds series special
race last year. is not making q
very good impression this year. The
blame cannot be all charged to
Rowland. as he is short of pitchers
at this stage in the race.
Lee Fohl, who is plotting the
Cleveland team, is showing good
generalship and has his mount well
up in the race.
Ed Barrow, who was recently
given a license in the American
League after coming from the In
ternational circuit, Is riding the
Frazee entry and Is handling the
new steed in remarkable style.
The Cubs, under the direction OF
Jockey Mitchell, are making the
spectacular showing. and unless
they weaken soon by encounterinG

Miller Huggins. the lightest of all

MAY REMODEL
GOLF COURSES
Green Committee of Wash
ington Country Club to
Rearrange Links.
BY FRANK III. YOUNG.

Practically all Of the courses
planned in recent years are laid out
so that the ninth as well as the
eighteenth hole brings the players
in the vicinity Of the clubhouse.
This of course has several advan-
tages. the main one being for the
beneft of those who only want to
play an abbreviated round and at
the same time do not want to end
their match a mile or so away from
home. Another important advsn-
tage is that on holidays. Sundays, or
other times the course is crowded II
is possible to arrange two starting
points. A year or SO ago. the Chevy
Chase course was re-arranged SO
as to have two holes ending at the
clubhouse and the change has prov
ed to be q very popular one.
IL is not at all unlikely that the
pext of the local organizations to
make this re-arrangement of its
course will be the Washington Golf
and Country Club. The matter has
already been considered by the
Green Committee on one or two &C.
casions but nothing definite has
been decided upon to date Its
course is so arranged now that q
change Of this kind can be made
without making any additional tees
or holes. Il being merely a matter OF
changing the sequence OF the holes.
This has been demonstrated on a
number OF occasions. the most re-
cent being last Thursday when a
miniature tournament was held. two
nine-hole courses being used

ing in, uses the seventeenth as the
tenth. the twelfth as the eleventh.
and numbers six. seven. eight, nine.
ten and eleven are played as the
twelfth. thirteenth, fourteenth. ff-
teenth. sixteenth. and seventeenth.
with the eighteenth remaining as
the home one. This plan makes two
separate nine hole courses. each Of
which starts and finishes at the
clubhouse. Par is exactly the same
while there is very little difference
in length. as may be seen from the
