A Day l Will Remember
Forever

How can describe to you the beauty Of the church
scene as found il when arrived! Huge wreaths Of
flowers swung graceful fragrance from ceiling to wall
Each pew boasted its cluster Of lilies, and the altar
mass of many-hued blossoms. The bridesmaids, in
their flowing white gowns, seemed almost unreal, and
the little Aower-eirs looked like tiny fairies they
scattered flowers along the carpeted aisle was superb
firmly believed that there nothing left in all the
world to wish for. The organst received the cue,
and with low. deep chord the mellow strains Of the
triumphant wedding march began.
Perhaps it the beauty Of the scene. Perhaps il
was the strains Of the wedding march, Perhaps il was
my overwhelming happiness At any rate, the days Of
rehearsal and planning vanished in blur Of happy for
gctfulness and before | realized what ! was doing !
had made an awful bunder. had made mistake
right at the beginning Of the wedding march, despite
the weeks Of careful preparation and the days Of strict
rehearsal!

TAGGING ALL THE BIG
LEAGUE BASES

The Griffmen have now won
three straight from the White Sox.
Going at their present pace they
should clean up the entire series.
Mulligan, the White Sox third
baseman, is a snappy player, making
good with a vengeance this season.
Buck Weaver's suspension gave him
his opportunity and he has made
the best of 1t.
Liver Foot" Hodge was a howl
ing success In the Southern Asso-
citation. He is not even a whispering
success In this league, especially
when facing the Griffs.
Waite Hoyt's fine pitching enabled
the Yankees to take the measure
Of the Browns. Hoyt allowed but
four hits.
Daring base running by the Boston
Braves gave them the edge over
the Reds.
A timely triple by Pete Kilduff
In the fourth inning, coupled with
Leon Cadore's nice sharpshooting Z,
gave the Dodgers a victory at Chi
cago.
Graney scored from first base on
Smiths single in the ninth inning
and the Indians trimmed Boston.
Jess Haines distributed five hits
among the Phillies but refused to
put out any runs.
Cobb got back into the Tiger line
up and the Bengals divided a twin
bill with the Athletics.

Olaf Erickson toiled the entire
nine rounds. something new for any
of McBride's right-handers, excepting

lead given him in the opening SEES

Acting Manager Johnson, of the

Griffs drove him from the hill in the

This young southpaw looks to have a
chance in the big show.
II Ended There.
The game really ended right in

Hank Shanks with murder in his

Some slam!
In the fourth Milan's triple. fol-

LILO uOlCuSC IcStcu 1lS GdSc ~ a
night session of the court after
kid" Gleason. manager of the
White Sox, Capt. Eddie Collins, Ray
! Schalk. Dick Kerr and Roy Wilkln'
son had testified. The only impor'
tant point brought out in the testi.
mony of these players was that the
accused members of the club had
been at morning practice in Cincin.
natl at time when Bill Burns,
chief witness for the State, had tes'
titled they were In conference with
other conspirators in a Cincinnati
hotel.
All testimony as to whether, in
the opinion of the clean" White
Sox, the accused players had played
honestly in the 1919 worlds series
was ruled out by the court The de.
Tense rested it's case without putting
any Of the players under Indictment
on the witness stand.
He Shows Receipts. ~.
One Of the interesting features of
the morning session yesterday was
the testimony of Harry M. Grab
liner, secretary of the White Sox.
He told on the stand the gate re-
ceipts and the net profits of the
team. He. said that since he came
to the club in 1915, the profits had
increased every year but 1918. when
the club suffered a loss of $751;
67312. This was the year many
ball players went to war.
The main witness for Fork was
Sid c. Keenner, sporting editor OF
the st. Louis Times, who said on
the night Redmon said Fork had
been pointed out to him at a sup
per in the Morrison Hotel the de-
PENDANT was with him, kenner, in
a billiard hall. He also told that
Fork left for st. Louis that night,
and his testimony in several ways
contradicted that of Redmon.
e. p. Malrose, formerly a Chi
cago sporting writer, also told Of
accompanying Fork to the train
that night and denied that he had
been present at a supper in the Nor
rison after a certain hour.
The morning session in court was
taken up with the examination Of
character witnesses for Carl Fork,
whom the State contends is the man
who went by the name of Bennett,
lieutenant Of Arnold Rothstein."
1t is understood the defense decid-
ed upon the advisability Of speed
ing the trial and allowing the jury
to decide the fate of the defendants
after the cases of Louis and Ben
Levi had been nollo pressed and
Judge Friend had indicated that he
would not consider a verdict Of
guilty against Buck Weaver, Hap
py" Felsch and Carl Fork.

Major Leagues Races
Nearly Identical
Today

The struggles for first place
in the two big leagues are very
close and very much alike today.
The leading teams, Cleveland
in the American League, Pitts
burgh in the National League,
have each won go games and
lost "a, with a percentage of
.63S.
The second teams, Yankees in
the American League, and the
Giants in the National League,
have lost the same number of
games, too, 81; but the Giants
have won one game more than
the Yanks, 30 to 81.
1t is not often that the four
leading teams travel at 80 even
a clip as this.

BOSTON, July 29.-Mayor Peters
has asked Harry H. Frazee. president
OF the Boston American League Base
ball Club, whether a reduction in the
price of admission tickets to Fenway
Park, home grounds of the Red Sox,

In a letter to Frazee the mayor said
he was informed that the charge of
IS cents for bleacher and $1.10 for
grandstand seats was in excess of the
prices charged by other major league
clubs throughout the country.
The prices at Fenway Park, the

Under the circumstances. II would
appear that an ideal match would
be Cans against Wilson. Matches
are supposed-but only supposed-to
lie made on the form displayed by
fighers. II Wilson has a hard time
licking a man who is easily licked
by Cans. 1t would seem that Cans Is
formidable contender in the middle
weight division. and of material that
the fistio public likes to see.
But here artists a slight difficulty.
Colored Champion.
It seems Johnny Wilson does not
wish to meet Panama joe" He
does not say he draws the color line,
but he apparently draws line
against Joe.
The latter has a title. He is the
colored middleweight champion, and
he holds one Of those Tex Richard
diamond belts. That belt has caused
Joe a lot of bother, too. He is afraid
to wear 1t around in public for fear
some one might be tempted TO win
II without fighting him for it.
Cans is a good fighter just now.
He is little more than a welterweight
idStr anu SiNNc'' ="
strong puncher. He has won four
or five battles in a row recently. On
July 4 he knocked out Jack Stone at
Atlantic City, and Stone was re-
garded as one of the Corners in his
division.
The ironical part of II Is IL Cans
were white, there would be terrific
clamor for Wilson to meet him. The
constant cry is that there are no
good middleweights, yet here Is
legitimate middle with a splendid res
ord. and no one to fight.
Cans manager, Leo p. Flynn, says
IL Wilson will make a match with
the black. the champion can have
10000 for his end. Leo apparently
thinks he can dig up a promoter who
will be willing to bid enough for the
match to enabel him to give Wilson
that amount.
Possesses Class.
As a matter of fact. a Wilson-Gans
battle might be tremendous card.
1t would be the first meeting in sew
eral years for a title between a white
man and a negro, and II ought to be
a good fight. Wilson is better than
some OF the critics rate him. and Cans
appears to be a first-class man.
He has something Of the quality Of
the black fighters Of old-the original
Joe Cans, Young Peter Jackson,
Dixon, Walcott and the rest. This is
not saying he is as good as any Of
those mentioned, because he has not
had the same opportunities they had
OF demonstrating just how good he is,
but he seems to have class.
He comes from Barbados, which
produced Joe Walcott. He got his
name from the fact that he did lot
of fighting around Panama. Down
there he won all kinds of titles.
Not long ago. after he was present.
ed with the Tex Richard belt, Cans
became i'll and returned to his home
in Barbados. At first It was feared
that his lungs were affected. He came
back stronger than ever, and of late
has been going along in sensational
style.
