RUMORS FLYING THICK

NEW YORK, June s.-Reports re-
unnamed steamer which today crashed
into an iceberg off the Newfoundland
coast was the British freighter Sea-
pool set at rest fears entertained in
shipping circles for the safety of sew.
eral large passenger vessels near the
ice field
When the first s. o. S. came out of
mid.Auantic, the Titanic disaster was
recalled and first thoughts were Of
passenger craft. Rumors few thich
and fast concerning the French line
steamer Rocham beau, based on a re-
port received from her last night that
she hod sighted ice off the north At
lantic. coast, and several erroneous re-
ports were circulated that she had met
with trouble
The Associated Press, which had
these baseless reports, did not, how
ever, circulate them. First reports OF
the accident received at the Boston
navy yard indicated that the distress
call had been sent by ship equipped
with a continuous wave transmitter.
There were some doubts as to whether
the Rochambeau was so equipped.
Then a private advice received here
named the Seapool and it was estab-
lished that she carried a transmitter
of this kind.
Report Ice Fields.
For several weeks steamers arriv-
ing here have reported vast ice fields
off the Great Banks. The Saxonia
which docked Saturday, reported sight
ing giant bergs which forced her to
rest motionless for more than two
days in dense fog.

ish freighter Seapool struck an ice
berg off the Newfoundland coast to-
day and slowly is making for St.
Johns with her forefoot broken and
her forepeak full of water.
Advices received by the Canadian
naval staff here said that the steamer
was not in need of immediate assist
ance. The message follows:

June 2, for Dublin.
BOSTON, June S.-Announcemen.
that a steamer had struck an iceberg
in mid-Atlantic and was believed to
be sinking was contained in radio
message received at the Navy Yard
here today. The message did not
name the seamer and gave the posi-
ton only as 1880 degrees west longi
tude.
The message read: "Just struck
iceberg. Position 1880 west longi
tude. Some one near please answer
Believe we are sinking
The distress call was received on
a continuous wave which requires a
high power sending station. Because
of this, radio operators ashore said
they believed the vessel was a big
one. Only the larger steamers and
most of them passenger liners, were
equipped with continuous wave appar

NEWS NOTES OF
SCOUT TROOP NO. z

Patrol Leader Eugene Bankston,
of the Buffalo Patrol, proved himself
the best track and field athlete in
Scout Troop No. 2 when he piled up
an individual score of IA pounts, al
most one-third of the total of A.
points awarded for the five events in
the track and field meet held at the
Y. M. C. A. Stadium last Saturday
afternoon by Scout Troop No. e.
Charlie Mitchell of the Peacock Pa
troll came in close second with a
score Of IL points, while o. C. OFT,
of the Pelican Patrol, individual star
of the last meet, was forced to be-
content with third place, making a
score of 8 points. Alex Holiday, Of
the Peacocks, and Linwood Cesarios
of the Pelicans, were the other point
getters, the former capturing points
and the latter points.
If Bankson had been supported by
the rest of his patrol, it is mighty
probable that the Buffaloes would
have won the meet, and even as it
was, his individual starring won for
the Buffaloes tied with the Peli-
cans for second place. Mitchell's
scoring for the Peacocks was largely
for that Patrols winning
first place.

And maybe you think the st. Louis
players are not with Sisler in the mat
ter of his run-in with Hildebrand, the
umpire, some weeks ago. Tobin told
me about that act of piracy wherein
the mild and placid Sisler was the
victim. Ruth had pushed Hildebrand
all over the park on an adverse third
strike decision and did not draw even
a reproach or a frown, but when Sis
Ter protested after being called out at
first, after he had beaten the ball by
nearly two steps, he was banished
from the game. Seems like when
you take the gaff decently on a bum
decision," reflected Tobin bitterly,
they use You for a doormat. But
I'll bet his jumps knows more about
Sisler now than he used to know"
Watch Johnny Tobin, you
fans, He covers right field like
a carpet of bluegrass; he is as
fast on foot as an antelope and
he hits like CycIops. And, bet

But the st. Louis fans got onto the
quiet Johnny at last. They awakened
one day last month and rubbed their
eyes, and found that Johnny was a
great player, so they gave him an au-
tomobile. Johnny leads his team in
batting. OF course, that is easy, for
there are no batters to speak of on
his team; only George Sisler, Baby
Doll Jacobson, Hank SEVERED and
Kenneth Williams; that's all. Every
one of them are clouters who range

serious enough to necessitate her re-
moyal to hospital.
