The winner given a3 position second from the rail, sprang into the lead at the start and was never headed. Harry Payne Whitney's Upset. with J. Rodriguez up, four lengths to the rear. was second.
 Former Congressman George w. Lofts On Watch, ridcen by N. Barrett, four lengths behind Upset. was third. Damask, piloted by Jockey l.. Am brcse. was fourth under the wire. two lengths behind On Watch.
 The result of the race bore out the prediction that it world be the most open affair of the kind in derby his tory. Donnacona went to the post the favorite and failed to finish in the money Pari-mutuel S2 tickets on the winner $34.40 to win. S1230 to place, and $6.60 to show.

 In the stretch the real struggle be- gan. Paul Jones barely was a head away from the oncom1ng Upset which was leading On Watch by the same margin.
 Excitement in the grandstand was at a high pitch. A babel of voices rose as the leaders aeared the finish and rose to roar when Jockey Rice pushed his mount over the finish by the margin of a head.

The six thousand and some odd base ball fans who turned out to see Bir- mingham win double header from Memphis yesterday were not disap- pointed, the Barons copping the first game to and the second to 0.
 John Dewey Morrison was in fine form in the first game, and except for the third inning, when the Chicks made their two runs off him, was prac- tically invincible.
 Whitey Glazner never let a Chick batter reach third in the second game.
 Albris pitched a nice game for Mem phis and made the first affair have every semblance to a pitchers battle. Only two of the runs off him were earned, the third and winning, coming as a result of errors by two of his team mates in the ninth inning.
 A record crowd turned out to see the twin game. It was estimated that there wrre 6,500 fans present
 s"Old Reliable" Peters was the hero of the first encounter. Besides making three hits out of three times at bat, Pete drove in two of the Barons' tal- lies by singles to the outfield.
 In the first game, the Barons scored first, as has become quite customary with them of late. In the second in ming Griffith singled to left field to start the stanza. Meeks sacrificed Griffith down. Croll grounded out, advancing Griffith to third. Big Pete came along with the needed single, a driye to center field, and Griffith scored. Morrison ended the frame by grounding out
 The Chicks tied and swayed the score their way in the third when two hits and walk, one of the hits a two-bagger by Lewis, were combined off Morrison. Both runs were earned.
 The Barons tied the score in the fourth on Meeks' single, Cro1fs sacri- flee and Peters second hit of the game.
 BARONS WIN IN NINTH
 The game rocked along until the ninth inning, neither side threaten ing much. In the final frame, Morri- son let the Chicks down in order. In their part the Barons pushed across the winning tally, or rather it was pushed across for them.
 Blades threw Crolrs grounder wild to first, and the Baronial shortstop was safe. Peters further did his part in win- ming the game by laying neat sacri- flee in front of the plate and advancing Croll to second. Right at this point the

an army OF men and women going to
the polls there naturally exists posi-
bilties of surprising results which is
the basis OF the strongest hopes of the
Democratic leaders.
The visible drift favors the Repub-
leans Chairman Ben Bosse o. tne
Democratic state committee asserts
that the outlook for Democratic sue
cess never was brighter. Thomas Tag

States senator, insists with a real show
of confidence. that the entire Demo-

The watson Taggart contest has
been the heRdliner in Indiana. The
Democrats in this state would rather
see Mr.. Taggart elected than to OBJ

in view of his great personal populari-
ty and what he has been doing for his

Basis of Republican Hopes.
In the last stanza of this interesting
campaign the Republicans are relying
for success on the following eleme nts !:
/ What they regard as the wide
spread unpopularity Of the President
for a change Of government at Wash
ington.
?. On the opposition to the League
of Nations covenant brought from Yer
sailles by the President.
g. On their theory that a majority
Of the people believe the Republicans
can run the government more wisely
than the Democrats.
The chief hope of the Democrats lies
as follows:
! That a majority of the people
favor a League of Nations and are con-
WINGED that Senator Harding and the
Republican United States Senate lead
ers viii block permanently this coun-
try's entrance into a league under Nay
circumstances.
.. That labor Will regard the Demo
cratic party as a better friend than the
Republicans.
3. That the opposition to the Good
rich administration. and particularly
to the tax law viii give them thou
sands of Republican votes
The Democrats are confident that the
women generally favor the league and
VIII stand with Governor Cox because
he has said that he "favors going in"
The Republican managers believe that
a majority OF the women will vote for
Art. 10 and other features OF the
league which they insist are prejudical
to American sovereignty.
