BULLDOGS SUBDUE
CATHOLICS, ; TO |
MCDONALD AGAIN HURLS
"Jot" Jones Cracks Out Single and
Puts Bulldogs in Lead-Andrews
and Williams Out.

The Hendrix Bulldogs annexed an
other game yesterday afternoon OF
Russell field when they took the Little
Rock College bunch to to 2 trim
ming IN the first of two game series
! between the two teams. The groune
was unusually muddy, but as the Lit
tie Rock bunch has full week OF
games, the game yesterday could not
be postponed.
Smoky" Dunn started for the Bull.
dogs yesterday, but was relieved il
the fourth inning by Clyde Mcdonald
Dunn was not in first class condition,
and the two run lead the Hendrix
tribe secured in the first inning was
wiped out in the second when the
Catholics made two runs. Mcdonald,
however, pitched six innings with two
hits and was never in danger. Con-
slderlng the condition of the field
both 1orio and the Hendrix twirlers
received god support, only three mis-
plays being recorded.
Fans yesterday missed Red" An
dreWs, captain and centerfelder, and
Royce Williams, shortstop Red" has
been called to his home at Moro on
account of illness of his mother, while
Williams is out because of illness.
A smashing wo-bagger by Mont
gomery in the first, a hit by Farris
and double steal by Montgomery and
Farrls marked the first counter. Far
rls was sacrificed to third by McDon-
aid and scored when Yorio heaved a
wild pitch. The second inning wit
nessed the Catholics tie the score.
An error by Maxwell, a hit and walk
saw the bases full and none out. A
passed ball by Jones let in one score.
Henry struck out, Scott flied out to
Maxwell but Warner walked, again
loading the bases Fletcher retired
the side with a strikeout
With Mac" in the box after the
beginning of the fourth, the Little
Rock bunch seemed to be helpless at
bat. Excellent support back of Nc
Donald also helped keep the Catholics
off the bases. The Bulldogs put across
their winning marker in the seventh
when VAIL raped one to Warner
that went for a scratch hit. He was
sacrificed to second by Myers. Clay
Jones, who had donated the visitors
their two runs, stepped into one of
Yorio's fast ones for a clean single
to right field, Vail scoring from see
ond.
The Little Rock bunch tomorrow
will transfer to the Normal lot where
they will play two games with the
Normal team, Friday and Saturday.
This afternoon they are playing the
Bulldogs on Russell field.

 cuts that appear in the newspapers.
 There is no way to develope Alalent.
 Only in few of the larger cities
 which can be couRted on the fingers of
 ones hands, is anything being done to
 encourage youngsters to come out for
 the game. How long do you suppose
 baseball would last if only a city here
 or there permitted it to be played :
 The sand lot boy would disappear.
 There would be no new talent coming on.
 This is exactly what has happened
 to the boxing game. There are doubt less any number of boys who might
 have been worlds champions who have passed beyond the time when they could now go In the ring, but never had a glove on their hands Boxing was not allowed in their towns. There was no incentive for them to get into the sport Because they saw the law constantly interfering perhaps his estimate of the sport was lowered-a grand sport which is not deserving of this great handicap.

Babe Adams At 37 Trying To Come Back

Pittsburg, Pa, April 2e.-CSpecial)- Manager George Gibson. of the Pirates, lis not usually given to serious considera- tlon of the psychological stuff. because he believes much of 1t is pure bunk. bur ''Gibby" is satisfied that the occult mat ter has worked on Pitcher Babe" Adams, and will probably serve to make him one
 of the real topnotch hurlers of the Ma tional League this season.
 Gibson says critics generally have been
 putting Adams on the pan because he is
 attempting to come back in his thirty
 seventh year. Adams will be T years old on May IS. This criticsm-m of 1t caustic-which has been directed toward Adams, has served to make the veteran finger sore, but at the same time fill him with a determination to show the 1 wisenheimers they do not know their subject.
 | As matter of fact, Adams Is not too old to make good. He is but eleven
 months older than Eddie Cicotte. of the | Chicago White Sox, and Is some years | younger than the famous Cy Young, when that hurer laid down his tools at the age of fortyfive. Adams is one ot
 the oldest hurlers in the big show this year however.
 1 q cannot understand" said Adams in 1 a peeved tone, why the writers are pre- dieting my failure at this stage. have | taken good care of myself and I feel as ! good as ever. I never knew I was so unpopular with the scribes before" ] Manager Gibson has encouraged Adams | to exert his every effort to make good. l He taFes issue with Babe that he has | not been treated fairly. He believes the writers should wait until they see just what Adams does when the campaign gets under way in earnest.
 1 Adams calls attention to the fact that Eddie Plank remained in the majors un- | til he was forty-two. and at the age Of | thirty-seven years had one of the best season of his career, turning in twenty six victories and but six defeats. Baseball
 at present has many hurlers over the 1 thirty mark. Walter Johnson is thirty two Grover Alexander has passed 33 Ral Caldwell is thirty three, Dick Ru- dolph and Urban Faber art g. Slim Sal lee. whose sterling work helped the Reds Hand the championship, was thirty-five on February 3. Jim Vaughn is thirty-two This lineup would indicate that Adams does not deserve to be criticized because
 of his age as long as he can deliver the goods.

I1TIY COBB is one of those persons who
 disagrees when anyone comments
 that the pugi1istic game Is mora brutal than the diamond pastlme.
 ''Yep-I learned the difference some years ago. relates the mighty outfelder, "A fight club asked me to referee a bout ono night-and l accepted. couple of local brides were the gladiators. They got busy banging away at each other With the first clang of tue gong-and 1t was a lulu of a mixup. Regular old slam -hang stuff, with the boys standing toe to toe most of the time walloping away at each other.
 If rly memory serves mo correctly each boy battered the other into a rather cute-lookng crimson hue, with here and there touch of black around the eyes. Yes, sir. 1t vas a good fight and 1t went the limit.
 The next days the papers and the fans roasted me. They insisted that should be ashamed of myself for letting those boys fight on while they were 1T such a pitiful condition; declared that should have been humane enough to stor the fight What do you think of that?
 Say. if contests were stopped every time somebody got cut a little, there wouldn't be any ball games Why, I've seen fellows spikerd on diamond, oi hurt by sliding, whose pains were worse than those fighters suffered that night.
 Judging by the comments Of the fans over my work as referee that night. Fl say that when it comes to taking punish mant without yelling or exciting publlt sympathy ball player has it all oVei prize fjghter.'

There are men today all over the country who are as good as were the men of two decades ago. The history pugilism and horse racing. shows that the equality of the performers is inn proving. One has only to look at the constant breaking of records that is going on in track and field, swim ming and etc.
 But all these sports are being fos- tered and encouraged. Boys are being urged to take part in these various activities. Everything Is heinz done to pick up new ideas that will improve the performances and to promote the sports.
 A STRANGLE HOLD
 The law has taken a strange hold on the ring game snd instead of leav- ing it alone to fight out it's own des- tiny as the American game of football, for instance, has been allowed to study out means of salvation through it's experts and admirers, legislatures have stepped in and enacted drastic laws either prohibiting the sport of boxing, or enacting a stringest super vision over it. Limited round, and no decision bouts have played havoc.
 Thirty years ago when the ring game was flourishing there was no place in the world where ring events could not be staged to finish. Every city and town in the country had it's own par ticular champion in the various weight divisions. Boxing was encouraged and boys took it up and wanted to ex- eel in it.
