Baker Will Take Action
to Save u. S. Aerial Service
From Being Wholly Junked

Washington, July 22.-Fully real
izing that the American that the
American Air Service is destined to
crumble away unless prompt meas
ures are taken to prevent it, Secre-
tary of War Baker at last has de-
cided to attempt to save 1t. He an
nounced that he shortly would trans
NIT to Congress an urgent appeal on
behalf of Army aviation, and would
submit data showing to what extent
the service had been crippled and
how 1t would be impossible to get a
fresh start without needed appro-
priations.
This is the first move Mr.. Baker
has taken to aid the air service. The
fact that 1T comedies with the re-
turn of Assistant Secretary of War
Crowell from Europe led to reports
that Mr.. Crowell brought back data
showing how foreign powers were
devoting concentrated efforts to build
up aviation, while the United States
was letting its air service calmly go
to the scrap heap.

ROSEWOOD DROPS
IMPORTANT GAME
st. Marys Had 1t All Over the
Roses; Kirby Is Big Factor
in Hill League Game

To-nlght-Galahad VS.. Reading.
Last nights result-St. Mary's, 4;
Rosewood, 2.
ST. Marys slipped one over on
Rosewood last night, and st. Swith-
in, too, for they got in a regulation
game of baseball without rain inter-
fering defeating the Roses to 2.
The big gun in the victory was none
other than Lefty" Hummel who got
in bad at the very start. but after
that the losers never had much OF
chance.
Geary, first batter up was hit by
a ball, and Dunkle was given a pass
Then the youthful "Bill' Fortna,
who has been clouting the ball at a
400 clip, singled over second for the
only hit of the contest off Hummel,
and two runners counted. Bill
was caught trying to steal second,
and while Rosewood had sevral op-
portunities to score, Hummel was
always master of the situation.
Supporting Hummel, behind the
plate was Kirby who played a splen-
did game, and drove timely two
bagger. Support on both sides was
good. Errors were few. and most
of them could be excused because of
the high wind that made the fly
bllio 10 JuuS6.
st. Mary's put runner over in
the first inning after Rosewood had
tailed two times. With two gone,
Sam Books singled through short
stop and went to second on a passed
ball that injured Melrs finger. The
latter Immediately passed over the
mask to Bill" Hoerner. Kirby's s
double brought Sam home.
The game was won in the second
when three more runs were amassed.
Mike Sostar waited out Mountain for
four balls. Rheam singled to right.
Lefty" Hummel then doubled to
center, winning his own game, two
runners tramping over the platter.
rabbit" Zerance laid down a per-
feet bunt and Hummel went to third
Murphy drove a hard roller to
Emanuel, and while the latter Jug
gled the ball, all hands were safe.
In the fifth inning threatening
clouds left out several drops, which
with the wind sent the crowd scurry-
ing for shelter. But the rain was
of short duration, and play continued
without interruption. The game
was fast with everybody hitting the
ball, but good support retired the
runners. Tonight Reading and
Galahad play. AS these are the
two leading teams of the league, a
big crowd will likely be on hand to
see the mines battle for supremacy.

Biever, too, transgressed.
There was a big crowd on the
bleachers and in the stand, when
Umpire Cook called play. Heavy
clouds hovered over the field and at
one time there was a sprinkling of
rain that drove quite a number of
the fans off the field. The Motive
Power players made their runs in
two innings. The Engineers and Fire
men collected their trio of tallies
in the last minutes of the contest.
Stewart Plays Good Came
The playing of Stewart, the Mo-
tive Power shortstop, was especially
good the fast infielder having 5
putouts and assists. to his credit,
one of them being a double play
unassisted. Rote, third sacker for
the losers, also put a fine article of
ball, having four putouts. His
throwing to first was one of the de-
lighting features of the game. While
McCurdy. Motive Power first base
man, is charged with an error, he
played q fast game. His putouts
