Reformer Calls on Good People
to Drive Professional Box.
inS OFF Earth.
AMERICAN LEAGUI

The Rev. DR.. Wilbur F. Crafts, in
ternational reform leader. believes In
taking time by the forelock. SO last
night he launched his campaign to
prevent Jack Dempsey from partici-
pating In a bout on Labor Day.
"If Dempsey fights a third time on
Labor Day for an assured 100000.
II will make a million dollars an hour
for smashing laws and promoting
brutal assault" said the doctor in his
blast. Such a misuse of money IL Of
Unreasonable injury in a thousand
ways. All who believe money should
go TO need and merit should unite to
drive this professional pugilism off the
earth"
DR.. Crafts delivered himself a
wealth of views on the questions OF
prize fighting, prohibition and kindred
subjects, using an open letter to those
who have attacked him for his crusade
against the overwhelmingly fight
as the vehicle for his TRADE.
Statements that Carpenter gave
part or his winnings 10 the rehabilita~
ton Of France, caused the doctor to
compare his own generosity with that
of the French fighter,
MY generosity happens to be great
er than Carpentier's-the giving, not
of a small fraction. but all OF my
current earnings. legally acquired by
useful work, not by criminal promo

nounced.
The reformer offered an apology for
those members OF the Roosevelt family
who were in attendance at the battle
of the century," declaring that they
did not expect the affair to be, as 1t
was, the sort Of boxing Theodore

What the Pitchers Did.

These pitching figures. of course, do
not indicate why certain games were
lost. Bad work in the field behind
{ Mogridge, for instance, Is responsible
foI three Of his four defeats. but they
do show who did the most work on
the road and how unequal it was.
Fans will do well to ponder over
these figures, both of the hitting and
the pitching. In them is a large part
of the answer for the failure Of the
Washington club since the Fourth of
July.
Turkey Brewer has been used almost
wholly as a pinch hitter. and his sue
cess may be seen by his handsome
average of .825. Were he playing
regularly he could not be expected to
maintain such high figures, but he
seems to be the ideal pinch hitter.
Bucky Harris Leads.
Until yesterday Rice had driven but
four runs across the plate In twenty
six opportunities. but In the final clash
with the Tigers Rice came out of his
slump with a wild rush, collecting five
hits, one q triple and two of them dou-
bles.
Bucky Harris leads the batsmen
with a fine mark of 1888. He Is tied
with Shanks In driving over ten runs,
perfumes as did Shanks.
Bing Miller who hit for 1923. leads
in driving in runs. He caused fifteen
tallies to cross the plate, five being his
own home runs. He had twenty-six
chances to drive in runs and succeeded
ten times.
Pat Charity really L. the most ef-
fective hitter. Eight times he faced
chances to bring over runs and he was
successful five times for eight runs.
Val Picinich also showed himself
n tough customer in the pinches. He
and he made good five times for five
runs. There Il little good to h said
Of the pitching, save that Mogridge
and Zachary showed the best control.
Loose twiriing marked almost every
contest and the relief pitchers were
usually sorry Jokes.
Terrible Fingers.
The worst work was turned In by
Mr.. Courtney and Jim Shaw. The
lefthander allowed thirty hits and
walked fifteen in 20 Ia innings.
Both will be fortunate to hang on
In this company.
For the next three weeks the Griffs
Will face the acid test of fighting
off their slump before the homo fans.
This IL never easy and some of the
boys are sure to hear some harsh
words before hitting the road agnin.
A few may be glad to 20 on the
road, unless they produce much
better work than the above figures
prove they have done over the last
three weeks.
