third time this week. on the -Yorkville
diamond yesterday afternoon when
They lost to the strong emi-profes-
sional Shelby, N. C.. team by. a score
Of 10. to- i. It, was. the. concensus OF
opinion that Umpire Caldwell Of
Shelby helped his. town win; but on
| the other hashd there is no question of
the fact that: Shelby would have won
anyway, because they had the Soldiers
outclassed- in about the proportion thar
the Legonaires would have the. York
vile Graded school team QUITO 'assed.
Young John Walker, high. school
pitching pride of Clover, borrowed
from that town to defeat the Shelby
ites,. didn't do it. aThey. touched him
for a couple of homers and numerous
other hits and In the fourth inning ne
was taken out in favor Of. Howard NC. is.

Soldiers, they phyed; air. tight ball tn
the. field. Paul Bratton played q won
derful game in center field. But the
hovs were not. there with the OLD
willow when the'' old willow was
needed and that's what it takes to win
. oId hall games. THE fans realized
after the second. inning that It. was
:Shelby's ball game and they contented
themselves with settling down ana

come of the Dempsey Carpenter prize
firht at Atlantic City, N. ]. tomorrow
kafternoon. Most of the, local noxans
fans are of the opinion that Dempsey
the present champion is sure TO WIN,
claiming that. he. is1 in every way, q
superior fighter to- the champion: nue
there are lots of fellows around VINO
are hoping that Carpenter, the cnaI-
ienger will get in q lucky lick some
how or other and balm the champ 1or
the count. Tom w. Qdinn, local dope
ster," has it all figured out just no"
Dempsey is going to knock out Car-
nentier. The Frenehman, accorolhs
to Tom. hasn't a Chinaman's chance.
Others think the same thing: There
has been no local betting on the ngnl
For the reason that there Is no car
pentier money In sight. In fact there
is. little betting on the fight anywhere
