Mrs. Dempsey to Charge That Jack w as a "Slacker"
By Associated Pra.s


 san Francisco, June 10.-Mrs. Maxine Dempsey made up her mind to make public charges that her former husband William Harrison Jacl) Dempsey, champion heavyweight pugilist, was a stacker" when she received from pho- tograph showing him as a shipyard worker in wartime, she told a jury in the United States district court, where Dempsey is on trial on a charge of evading the selective draft
 Asked on cross-examination if her real motive was not desire to get s4oOO0 rom Dempsey out of s250,0O0 she ex- pected him to receive for a fight with Georges Carpenter, she entered de- nial She said she had letters showing he had made false statements in his questionnaire regarding persons depend ent upon him, and she thought the gov ernment ought to know about it.
 Federal Judge Bowling ruled this morn- ing that Mrs. Maxine Dempsey might testify to non-confidential relations in the trial of her divorced husband, Jack Dempsey. on a draft evasion charge. Yesterday the court barred Mrs Demp- sey's testimony as to her confidential marital relations
 Judge Bowling announced "there would be no general rule as to what was non confidential matter and the questions which it gives rise to will be settled as they arise"
 Following this statement, the prosecu- tlon questioned Mrs. Dempsey regarding her visits with her husband and alone to various parts of the country The de- fense was overruled when it objected to question as to what Dempsey con- tributed to Mrs. Dempsey's support from July to November 1917 during which period they were separated, according to her testimony. She testified to having received total of s6O5. She testified she returned to Salt Lake City at Demp- sey's behest and they came to San Fran cisco together. Here she practiced her calling as woman of the underworld, to her testimony, and once Dempsey struck her on the jaw because she did not bring him enough money to satisfy him.
 Mrs. Dempsey said that at various times she was in the underworld of Padco, Washington, Spokane and Ya- kima, Wash, and Cairo, III.

DUDLEY LEAGUES MOST
 PROMISING YOUNGSTER

Dudley is by far the most promising youngster in the Southern League. That goes without reservations. He is the find of the year for Strang Nicklin and the pity is that he doesn't belong to the ball club Shay is a likely youngster, too, far too good to think of letting him go. Halt is no bad ball player-either, and, in fact, every youngster on the club has a germ of promise in his system.
 Of the old 'uns, Fred Bratichi seems to be setting out to play the best game Of his career. He has made nine hits in the last three games.
 Without further individual ella abora- tion be it said that the most vexing thing about the past months perform ances is the feeling that the ball club is too good, even as 1t stands, to be a .S33 tail-ender. A couple of fair hit ting ball players inserted most any where and the club would go.-Chat- tanooga Times.

ODD EFFORTS OF PITCHER FAIL

Here's a story Harry Howell, the old St. Louis Browns pitcher. tells of his efforts to increase the batting average of Jimmy Williams. Harry and Jimmy had formerly been room mates and pals, and at this time Harry was pitching for the Browns and Jim my was playing third base for the Yankees. The Browns came to New York for a series at the tail-end of the season, and they were so far down in the race and had their position cinched so that they really had nothing to gain by winning the series against the Yankees.
 On the other hand. Jimmy Williams, with the Yankees, was up among the leagues leading hitters that season and had a good chance to give them all a battle for the hitting honors. Howell wanted to help his old pal in his efforts to boost his batting aver age, so the day Harry was to pitch against the Yankees he told Jimmy that every time he came to bat he (HowelD would pitch straight balls right over the center of the plate Jimmy was to take a toe-hold and whale out a flock of base hits that afternoon as nourishment for his bat ting figures.
 Three times Jimmy came up to bat and three times Howell laid straight balls with nothing on them right in Jimmy's groove. Jimmy never hit any of them out of the infield. Twice he hit high flies that were caught by the infielders. and the third time he hit a grounder and w@s thrown out al first Tie fourth time he came to bat there were two on and St. Louis had a chance to win in spite of the fact that they didn't care much about it. so Howell walked up to Jimmy a he came to bat and said:
 Now, you big bum. I've been try ing to give you base hits all afternoon and you couldn't get 'em.< Now I'm going to win this ball game and add it to my own average. I'm goeng to give you everything I've got"
 Howell then went back to the pitch CTS slab and put everything he had on the ball. He says he knew Jimmy was trifle weak on a curve ball. and he pitched him one that broke sharp CT and better than any curve he ever

LEE FOHL IS BACK
 IN THE BIG SHOW

Lee Fohl, native Pittsburger, who for several years was manager of the Cleveland Indians, stepping down late last season in favor of Iris Speaker, has just signed contract to act as coach and scout of the St. Louis Browns.
 As a developer of pitchers and 8 coach, l know of none better than Fohl, and the Browns have made no mistake in landing him. I would like to have seen Fohl engaged in a similar capacity with the Pirates, and believe that but for certain reasons, such a deal would have been put through last winter. Lee had one or two confer ences with Barney Dreyfuss, but was not engaged.
 The entire present pitching staff of the Cleveland club was developed by Lee Fohl. Every hurler owes his job to the untiring efforts of the painstak- ing Fohl, and each will tell you so if you ask him.
 I look for better pitching from now on by the St. Louis hurlers.-William Peet in Pittsburg Dispatch.

 over stragglers i'm the second divi-
 sion. \ team which can make four doubles and triple, we'll ns six singles, in eight innings has
 right to he called mighty. The Barons displayed Old-time form
 yesterday.
 The pitching was we'll up to standard. the team fielding wns excellent. not n single error being made behind Gallagher, and the hitting was fine, especially in the pinches. What more can fan de- sire of ball tcams
 The game yesterday was rather void of startling plays, although the extra base hits and the sensational work of Fred Bratchi in left field prevented monotony from setting in. There was absolutely no bobbling, every man fielding his position cleanly. Only one base on balls was issued. There are not many games which can boast of such features. Fourteen errors were made by the Chicks and Bears yester- day four by the Pelicans and Travel CTS and three by the Vols and Crackers.
 Outfielders were run to cxhaus- ton in yesterdays game. Nine teen balls were caught. not to mention the eleven hits fielded by
 the outer gardeners. This is way above the average chances for
 outfieldcrs.
 Chattanooga put up a nice, poppy game. We feel rather inclined to agree with w. c. Foster, sporting editor of the Chattanooga Times when he says; There is one thing that surely should be said in favor of the Look outs. They try; they wilt some times under firee & bit, but they are trying to give their best all the time.
 Doubtless this is one reason that 0e fans have stuck by them, realizing that the bunch of youngsters are eager for victory and feel their defeats keeI

ly. The fans forgive anything else
 more readily than indifference.
 Furthermore. in spite of the con- tinuous defeats of the team, it cannot be gainsaid that there are lots of good
 ball players drawing their salary from
 Strang Nicklin. All the club has needed
 from the start has been a little bal ancing, with additional hitting power Joe Sewell is lead-off man for the Pelicans. And he is holding down his new job in splendid fashion. Yester- day he got two hits out of four times at bat and scored one run. one of
 Joe's hits was triple.
 Another college boy, "Lucy" Hairston, Is with the Barons now.
 'Lucy" made his debut here this season yesterday. He failed to make any hits, hut he certainly pOled out couple of likely looking drives that reminded local fans of the Lucy. Hairston of 1919.

 William Pcet, sporting editor of the PittsburS Dispatch, has this to sny about the recent Fletcher Bancroft deal;
 ssThe trade between the philiies and Giants recently, involving the swap of Art Fletcher for Davy Bancroft, looks mighty significant. It looks like the end of Gayvy Cra- vath as the Phiis' manager. No need to name his successor. Art Fletcher, of course"
