THE INVESTIGATION WAS EN-
TIGHTENING, AT LEAST

An unusual scene, showing the
reactionary tendencies Of the
dominant element in the Repub-
lican party, was enacted in the
closing hours Of the Senate ses-
sion when Senator Reed Smoot,
Of Utah. Of the g. Q. +. odd
Guard" attempted to choke off
an investigation of campaign eX-
penditures during the approach
ing campaign.
Senator Pomerene, Of Ohio.
Democrat. asked for considera-
ton Of his resolution extending
the scope Of the Senate investi-
cation into primary campaign
expenses and contributions and
providing the inquiry should con
tinue until the November cleo
tons and cover all campaign
committees and presidential can
didates. Adjournment was only
an hour away, and Senator
Smoot objected.
The Utah Senator. one of the
standpat Republicans who trains
with the Penrose-Watson-Crane-
Lodge combinations at national
conventions, persisted in his OBJ
lection until two minutes before
the hour set for adjournment
sine die. He withdrew it only
after a sensational speech by
Senator Borah, progressive Re
publican. bitter attack by Sena
tor Pomerene and a significant
statement from Senator Knox
that Il hope the objection will be
withdrawn
Senator Borah virtually warn
ed Smoot that if he prevented the
campaign investigation. the Re
publican party would regret it
before the ides of November "
Evidence already brought ont be
fore the Senate subcommittee
concerning the excessive costs OF
pre-conveution campaigns by
General Wood, Governor Low
den and others, prompted Sena-
tor Borah in his plea to his wn
party not TO continue its attempt
to hide disaereeable and scani
alous facts.
The speech of Senator Borah,
directed at one of the old
Guard" leaders Of his own party.
was one OF the most remarkable
utterances ever heard in the
Senate, Demanding that the Re
publican party clean House" OF
lie repudiated by the American
people at the polls, Senator
Borah said i'll part:

PENNSY Nine TO FACE
GINCI, WEDNESDAY

Two home games are to be played by
the Richmond division baseball team
this week. Cincinnati will clash with
Richmond at Exhibition Park, Wednes-
day afternoon. Columbus will play
here Thursday afternoon.
Omer Todd, athletic supervisor of
the division, said Tuesday that the
great interest at Columbus in Thurs
days game will probably cause large
delegation Of Columbus fans to attend
the game Although Columbus defeat
ed Richmond last month, the game was
awarded to Richmond because OF
Columbus having players in the line
up that did not work for the rail
road.
Ching McConaha will hurl Wednes-
days game AGAINST Cincinnati. Riner
will work in Thursdays game. Henst-
Ter, who pitched good game against
GAINESVILLE last week, is Ill and will
rot be able to play. The rest OF the
Richmond lineup will be the same as
in previous games. Play will be called
at 9: 80 p. m. on both days.

AMERICANS ENTER
TRIAL EVENTS TODAY

ANTWERP, Aug. 10.-American
track athletes faced their first real
test in the Olympic stadium today in
the trial events which were to deter
mine the american participants in the
100-metre dash, the 400-metre hurdles
and the 600-metre run. Men who
came from America on board the Ma
rual which has just been published.
AS the opening day of the Olympic
games approaches, the stadium track
and field are becoming crowded. The
Swedish athletic team was expected
to arrive today. More than IT'S news
papermen have applied for places in
the press box, and every train and
boat to this city brings throngs of
visitors.
The cycling events have so far
failed to draw a large attendance.
The semi-finals and finals in the relay
bicycling races were run today, fol-
lowed by the great velodrome race OF
so kilometres. Foreign entrants in
Thursdays road race expect slow time
because a large part of the route is
ever cobblestones. The highways to
be covered by the riders pass through
innumerable small villages where the
highways are very poor.

C0LkS SOFT DRINK
FOR EAGLES BUNCH

Remembering past performances,
Richmond baseball fans were not sur
prised when the Hamilton Coca-Colas
received 2 3 to 2 defeat from the
Richmond Eagles at Exhibition Park,
Sunday afternoon. Only seven in
nings were played, however, as rain
made its unwelcome appearance in the
eighth.
Hamilton offered the most strenuous
opposition the Eagles have experienced
IN seven games. The visitors outplay-
ed the Eagles on the diamond Every
one of the 81 fielding chances were
accepted. Eagle players handled 81
chances and mussed up two.
The Eagles scored the first run of
the game in the second inning when
Smith singled, Reddinghaus sacrificed
and Justice damned a triple to center
fleld. The visitors went ahead in the
fifth inning on two doubles and free
ticket to first. The Eagles evened
things and went ahead in the sixth
when Smith doubled, Reddinghaus
singled and Byrkett doubled.
Although Johnny Logan was not
very successful with the war club, his
fielding performances at second base
more than atoned for his lack of hits
He handled four outs and five assists
in great style. Fitzgibbons mussed
one and Reddinghaus did the same.
The score:

REDS WHIP BOSTON

BOSTON, Mass, Aug. 10.-For the
second time within three weeks the
Cincinnati Reds have climbed to with
in one point of first place. The first
time the Reds pulled so close to Brook
iyn, a serious slump at New York
drove them from the heights.
But the three out of four victory at
Philly and Mondays double victory
from Boston have caused the Moran
men to be right at 'em.
Mondays double victory was an ex-
:ibition of hitting abilities of the Red
regulars. Duncan, Roush and Wingo
we're the headliners. The first game
was garnered ten to five. The second
Joined the win harvest by an eight to
two count.
Adolfo Luque, who has been pitching
the best ball on the Red staff, pitched
shutout ball in seven innings OF the
first game He weakened in the sew
enth and Moran jerked him. Jimmy
Ring finished in style.
Ray Fisher pitched wonderful

Braves at all stages and the two runs
scored were mostly as consolation for
the two game victory. The score:

MANY GOLFERS PLAY
IN Open TOURNEY

TOLEDO, O., Aug. 10.-The largest
number of golfers ever entered in q
championship today played IS holes
over the links of the Inverness club
in the first half of the qualifying
round OF the national open champion
ship. But out of the 268 entrants in
terest centered in a few of the better
known players and especially in the
British contenders, Harry Vardon and
Edward Ray.
There was much attention paid to
the play of the amateurs, among
whom were Chick Evans, former
champion, and Bobby Jones, of Allan
ia, southern champion. Evans played
with George Sargent, Of Columbus,
also former champion, while Jones
paired with Vardon. Walter Hagen,
of Detroit, defending his title, played
the round with T. D. Armour, a Scotch
amateur, and James Barnes, former
western open champion, started with
John Bowling.
1t was a race against time. With
the first pair started at o'clock and
new couple sent away from the
first tee every four minutes it took
until nearly o'clock to check out all
the players.

Although Richmond mas NOT UeeH

mis- meets for several years, several
local PLAYERS are capable Of making a

Jim Harrington and Shell Simmons
are perhaps the ranking tennis stars
of the city. Both have an assortment
of drives, are lengthy and able to grab
balls from on high when playing close
to the net Both also have wicket
serves that are hard to return. George
