Beaumont Ready
To Fall Out of
Texas Company

BEAUMONT, Texas. Aug. 5--The
hackers OF the Beaumont Texas
League club tossed In the towel last
week. The trade that sent Nick De-
Maggie, Don RAIDER and slim Love
to Dallas probably will lift the EX.
portcrs from the financial ruck. hut
II removes any lurking hope that
the club would stay In the penuant
tight this season. II even makes the
fans doubt whether n club will be
operated here next season.
In exchange for the three players
T.-i,; 10 Suiir- tine Exporters re-
ceived two outfielders. Pug Allen
and Ed Spencer, and a bundle of
coin, the amount OF which was not
announced. II was said, however.
that the cash involved was OF such
magnitude as To make tho deal one
Of the biggest In tho history OF the
Texas league.
DeMaggio and RAIDER were the
backbone OF the Exporters. The
former Is one OF the greatest out
fteldcrs in the minor leagues and led
the Texas league In hitting III the
first half of the season, while RAIDER
ranks with the most competent
shortstops In the circuit. Pick him as
the greatest and you can defend the
selection. AT present he Is leading
the shortstops I'm hitting, with Il
mark well over 800. Either RAIDER
or DeMaggio alone is more valuable
than Allen ana Spencer II past per-
fnrmnnces In this league mean any
thing. Slim Love has pitched with
Indifferent success, chiefly due to
his refusal to stay In condition. He

Dallas II Jim Galloway can persuade
him to behave.
Both Allen and Spencer are spend
ing their first years In the Texas
league. The former recently was sent
by Dallas TO Greenville OF the Texas
oklahoma league subject to recall
That action was taken In order TO
reduce tho Dallas team to the l6-
player limit. Allen was brought back
and turned over To the Exporters
While the local club owners will
be panned freely for breaking up
the team. there is another side to
the subject The patronage here has
been so poor all season, even when
the team was up in the race. that
the owners have been losing money
steadily, No sane person could ex-
pect them TO stand this loss indefin.

sell their bah players.

Protest
Gets Ne Backing

ST LOUIS, Aug. 5,--Though Vice
President and Manager Branch
Hickey OF the Cardinals has pro-
tested strongly in the east against
the deal by which the New York
Giants get Pitcher Hugh McQuillan
from the Boston Braves, and II In
declared to he pennant buying
transaction that equals the recent
Yankees Red SoX deal, the st. Louis
chamber of commerce and the Ro-
tary club so far have taken no nc-
tion toward filing protests with
Commissioner Lands and President
John Hcydler. These organizations
adopted formal resolutions of pro-
test, on behalf OF the Browns, whom
the Boston Red SoX handed over
Elmer Smith and Joe Dugan to the
Yankees.
a report that four members OF
the New York American league team
said they were pulling for the
Browns to win the American pen
nant Is not taken seriously, though
some inquiry has been made as to
the identity of the New York play
ers who are alleged to want the
Browns TO win, The story was cred
tied to an official of the local cham
Der OF commerce, who said "hotel
man" had told him of the Yankee
players alleged feelings.
In the east Branch Rickey is
quoted as saying he will advocate a
rule that will prevent interclub
trades after the playing season
opens.

FIND 6 MATCHES IN WOUND
Strange Condition Revealed When
Veteran Falls and opens Old Cut

Examination of an old wound on the
scalp Of war veteran who had been
stricken with an epileptic fit in n Six.
tleth street motion picture house last
night, revealed six match sticks that had
been covered when the injury healed.
The man, Walter Dettra. twenty three
years old, Of Hatfield, Pa, struck his
head on the back of seat when he fell,
opening a wound thought to have healed
two weeks ago.
Physicians at the Misericordia Hos
pital were puzzled as to how the matches
got into the wound The scalp had
grown over them and they could not
have been detected without the breaking
open OF the wound, it was said.
