LOCAL SENATOR
BELIEVES SESSION
SHOULD BE CALLED

Il am in favor of a special session OF
the legislature. if measures other than
the suffrage measure are to be con-
sidered," said State Senator Walter
McConaha, Saturday.
Il do not think that the suffrage
measure is sufficiently important to
justify the expense of the special SEES
sion, but do think that if other emer-
gency measures are coming up they
will, in the benefit derived, pay the
state"
Senator McConaha said that al
though he has always been in favor
of suffrage, and supported it in every
way he could, he thought the ratifica-
ton of the congressional measure
could wait. However he believes that
the other measures that Governor
Goodrich mentioned in the letter
which he has sent to the members of
the Indiana legislature are important
and should be acted upon, and at the
same time will save money for the
state. --
Governor Has Measures
In a letter to the members of the
legislature sent out by Governor Good
rich, Friday, he outlines six measures
which he thinks should be considered
at a special session, which he says he
lis disposed to call during state fair
week in September"
Senator McConaha says that the
only thing he fears about special
session is that the members will get
over there and every one will have
something he wants acted upon" Nc
Conaha says he has something else
to do and cannot spend the summer in
Indianapolis.
One measure in the letter which
Senator McConaha mentioned as I'M
portant, and at the same time econ
omical, is the measure to amend the
election laws so that men and women
can vote a common ticket. Another
measure which he deemed important
is the county unit bill law. The tangle
in this law was discovered shortly
after the legislature had adjourned
and although the attorney general by
his construction of the bill was able
to correct some of the errors the
plain purpose of the general assembly
was materially changed.

Can't Dislodge Reds From
Second Place; All Efforts
Result In Decentralization

If the members of any ball club in
the National League think they are
going to take second place away from
Pat Moran's Redlegs they had better
change their mind.
Some time back Brooklyn's club
came to town tied for second place
with the Reds. 1t was up to Moran's
team to get those second-place notions
out of the Brooklyn players heads, so
they turned in and wiped them off
the map by beating them four straight
games.
From that time until Thursday no
club had the nerve to challenge the
right of the Reds to occupy the Sec
ond hole.
But Thursday the Pirates thought il
was time for the Reds to vacate. They
came along to start three-game ser
les and conditions were such thai
three straight victories for the Pirates
would enable them to drag the Reds
down a notch.
After the first game all such fool
ishness was out of their domes. Fol
the Reds turned in and trimmed them
{ to 0 in a game that was stopped by
rain after the Pirate half of the sixth
had been played.
Friday the dose was repeated, tc
2. There is no question now which
team is going to occupy that better
ole, at least for few days.

K. 0. VICTORY IS
SEEN FOR CHAMP
BY HIS PARTNER
Willard Will Win in Five
Rounds Declares Monahan,
Sparring Mate.

TOLEDO. o., June 23.-Victory for
Jess Willard with a knockout within
hEe mounds in his heavyweight cham
pfonship contest with Jack Dempsey
here July 4, was the prediction today
OF Walter Monahan, chief sparring
partner for the champion. Monahan
based his prediction on his close
knowledge of Wizards physical con-
dition gained through several years of
work with him. 1t was Monahan who
conditioned Willard for his match
with Jack Johnson az Havana.
Beyond that covering of flesh on
Wizards mid-section, which had
caused boxing experts to proclaim
that the champion is not in condition.
He asserted the muscle protected mid
section ARE like rods of iron," and
that Dempsey will not be able to hurt
him with stomach punches.
Dempsey will be the most surprised
man in the world when he lets fly at
Wizards stomach with all the power
of his punches and finds that his
blows will do no damage" Monahan
said.
Sporting Celebrities Arrived.
Dempsey also will get a shock
when he learns how equally difficult
to hit Willard solidly. Jess will be a
greatly changed man in the ring. He
has not attempted to punish his spar
ring partners because he believes it
is not necessary to unduly misuse
them. But when he gets into the
ring next Friday it will be different
Willard than the man the public has
been watching in his training bouts.
1T is my honest opinion that Demp-
sey will wear himself out with his
dashing attack within three rounds.
Then he will be ready for whatever
Willard wants to hand him. Dempsey
will not be able to avoid Wizards
right hand uppercut and If Jess con-
meets solidly knockout surely will
result"
Toledo is rapidly becoming the
sporting center of the country. Every
train is bringing sporting celebrities
in ever-increasing numbers. The list
today included Benny Leonard, the
lightweight champion; Jack Moran,
who once fought Willard for the title;
Jack McAuliffe, the only man who re-
tired as undefeated champion of the
world; Tommy Ryan, former middle
weight champion; Billy Muldoon, a
famous conditioner of athletics, and a
score of others.

OUAKERS PRESENT
STRONG FRONT FOR
GAME WITH MUhCIE

Lee Tannehill, former pitcher for
the Cincinnati Reds. has been secured
by the local baseball directors as UNI
pire for the Muncis game Sunday.
Tarnehill is considered one of the
best baseball officials in Ohio. Rich
mond fans can be certain of a good
clean game. Since his withdrawal
from the active list as a baseball
hurler he has been officiating in semi
pro and major league games. He has
played in the American league.
The Muncie Shadmen are a rejuven-
ated team, and will come to Quaker
town to win, but as Cunningham S
nine, made up the latter part of the
week, after he cleaned house" of all
but three players. his team will lack
real teamwork. Most of the players
that he has secured to fill his scant
ranks are the members of the Ander-
son Eagles which were let off by the
Eagles this week It is understood
that Anderson has secured some of
the Maxwell players, including their
field captain, Dugge
Team is improving.
Every Sunday sees better team in
the field for Richmond. With Pete
Minner hurting the prospects look
good for the Richmond club. 1t is be-
lieved that if Minner had been placed
in the game sooner at New astle when
Harding allowed the Maxwells SO
many hits, the story there would have
been more in favor of Richmond.
Claud Knight who will backstop,
has had league experience with the
Virginia league. where he played last
year. Knight is considered the best
catcher around Richmond.
Leininger, Korfhagen, Schlenker.
Bacon, Hill and Dehner are still on the
Richmond clubs payroll and will prob
ably remain there.
Gus Felix, one of the fastest first
basemen in Cincinnati, it is claimed,
will fill his vacated position on the
initial sack Felix, Manager Winter
man told President Eggemeyer by let
ter, was also a good hitter and had
been offered try-outs with several ma
;or league clubs last spring.
