SOX ARE CLOSE
TO TOP RESULT
WIN YESTERDAY
Old Time Punch and Sparkling De-
tense Downs Tigers by a Count
of to /.

Chicago, July displaying the
kind of punch expected of the
champions, and presenting a spark
ling defense, the White Sox raked
a game of ball from Detroit's I'll
gers yesterday and stepped up
right upon the heels of the Ameri-
can league leaders. The count in
the battle was 4 to 1.
1t was Claude Williams against
the high-priced Dutch Leonard. and
Claude won the honors. Leonard
was displaced by a pinch hitter in
the seventh, and Doc Ayers came
forth and finished the game.
DetrOit's chance came in the
first inning when the Tigers filled
the bases with no one out Right
there Williams proved himself a
master pitcher. With Veach, He'll
man and Shorten, three of Detroit's
sweetest batters. coming up, Will
liams set them down without a
run counting. He famed Veach
and Heilman and made Shorten
pop.
1t was as pretty an exhibition of
pitching as has been turned out by
SOx hurler this year, and after
turning that trick Williams was
master of the visitors clear to the
finish. They did start a fuss in the
ninth, when Claude had a four run
lead and nothing to worry about.
There was a double, triple. and a
walk before any one was out, but
in the pinch Williams resumed his
stride, famed one, and made the
next one hit into a double play.
1t was hits at the proper time
that earned the victory for the Sox.
They made only eight blows all
afternoon, but six of them were
used in the production of four tai
lies with timely blows, and Eddie
Collins drove IN one FeIsch and
GandiI conspired together for the
other one
With ideal weather on tap, there
was a happy and noisy crowd of
about $4,000 present, in spite of the
fact that the Cubs were perform
ing on the north side. When the
score board showed the defeat of
the New York Yankees it brought
fourth as big cheer as when Joe
jackson doubled, for it meant the
Sox were near to first place. Score:

new CHAMPION
SCALED 1877 AT
The RINGSIDE
1t Is Revealed That q Difference of
IS Pounds Existed Between
the Principles.

Toledo, Ohio, July There was
a difference Of IS pounds in the
weight of Jess willard and Jack
Dempsey when they entered the
ring for their heavyweight cham
pionship contest Friday. This
was revealed when all camoufage
was stripped from the Dempsey
weight question The new cham
pion weighed 1877 pounds. while
Willard scaled 243 at ring time.
To EnJer Vaudeville.
Winning the worlds champion
ship had no effect on Dempsey to-
day. He acted as il he knew it was
coming to him and he exhibited not
the slightest surprise. He was out
of bed at O'Clock, motored to his
training camp for a visit with
friends of the Maumee Bay shore
district and then returned to his
hotel quarters in Toledo. He ex-
poets to remain here until he leaves
TO accept some theatrical work,
which probably will occupy his at
tention for the next six months.
The new champion has received a
score of offers and expects to &C
cept one offering the best induce
ments. One offer of $4,000 a week
for IL weeks was made him.
Intends to Fight Often.
81 am going to try and be pop
ular champion" Jack said. 81 be-
1ieve the public wants a champion
who will defend his title frequently
and I intend to be that kind of a
champion. I believe, however, that
1 am entitled to take a rest and
make some money out of the title
doing theatrical work l want to
lay off boxing for six or eight
months to do this. But I will fight
just as soon as man considered
contender is found"
Back TO On for willard.
Willard has definitely retired
from the ring. He will devote his
entire attention to his oil interests.
The defeated champion said that
rumors that he was severely in
jured and that he was taken to a
hospital were gross exaggerations-
The only injury he suffered was a
deep cut over the eye and a badly
cut mouth. He did not lose any
teeth or was his jaw fractured, as
reported.
Dempsey asserted that he had no
feeling toward willard except that
OF admiration.
Boxing is a business with both
Of us and willard proved himself a
game, square fellow all through the
fight. He took an awful beating
and certainly has gameness-
when l shook his hand after
the fight, l said to him: Well, Jess,
It's all over. I am sorry 1 had to
cut you up so much"

day that Jess Willard was

that the dethroned champion had
