FIGURES SHOW UP
STRENGTH Of THE
PALS AND SAINTS
Locals Scored S. Runs
to IS for St. Angus:
tine Club

With all relations between the Pals
and the Saints definitely cancelled in
timations of Eearl Blue that the Pals
were afraid to continue the game Sun
day afternoon-afraid of defeat rath-
er than OF any personal harm-is RI
diculous. The Pals lost two games to
the Saints, won six and tieS one, with
the Pals scoring So runs to!the Saints
rs, In these games the Pals hit safe
ly eighty nine times while the Saints
secured AZ, less than half.
Blue also said that Valdez was the
only pitcher that has been able to
show any strength against the Saints.
On May A Epperson let them down
with two safe hits and two runs and
shut them out here with two hits on
June 10.
When Harry Evans was arrested
for striking a fourteen year old boy
here last season and was accorded
every protection, committee of pro-
minent citizens went t. st. Augustine
and apologized for the conduct f
few irresponsible persons. Palatksns
know that the element which made
the trouble at st. Augustine Sunday
is not upheld by the substantial citi-
zens of st. Augustine, but are unable
to understand the attitude of those
citizens in not either splitting the
gate money with the Palatka club, or
giving it to charity.
If Palatka isn't entitled to share in
the gate money, much of it being ia
ken in after the game had been called,
st. Augustine certainly is not entitled
to it, and it should be given to the
children's home at Jacksonville, or
some other charitable institution.
When the president of the Saints or
ganization agreed with the Manage
ment of the Palatka club that it was
dangerous to continue the game, and
made a public announcement to the
grand stand, there seems little room
for contention.
The attitude taken by the fans here
is that if st. Augustine is satisfied
with the treatment of visitors last
Sunday no one else has kick. There
is a disposition, however, in other
sections of the state to steer clear of
the organization there, and the Jack
sonville teams attitude is reflected

TRAILING BROWNS
AF TER 8 DEFEATS
By Associated Press,

New York, June 2O-Trailing the
leading St. Louis Browns by two and
a half games today as a result Of
their eighth straight defeat, the skid
ding Yankees faced battle to retain
even second place against the rush OF
Ty Cobb's hard-hitting Detroit club.
The Tigers, by winning their seventh
in row, were within two games of
the New Workers. ..
Babe Ruth connected for his seven
tn homer in the first inning of the
game with Cleveland, , but lost his tern
per over a decision in the eighth and
was banished once more from the
field. The Yankees also lost the game
in thhis inning, Speakers men falling
or Carl Mays under-hand delivery
and driving across three runs to win
by AZ. Buster Mails twirled great
ball, striking out nine of the YAM
KEGS. Ruth twice was turned back in
tHlS way.
Harry Heilmann's great hitting
streak was stopped by Fullerton
while the Tigers were outslugging the
Red Sox, II to 8. The Detroit star
had registered ten consecutive hits,
one less than the record of eleven
established by Speaker in 1920.
The Browns increased their lead by
nosing out the Athletics, 3-2, McMa-
rus driving in the winning run in the
seventh after a duel between Kolp
and Heimach.
The st. Louis Cardinals hit Phil
Douglas hard in the early innings and
took their second straight from the
Giants. Pfeffer checked the champ
ions in the ninth after Earl Smith

Blue says the newspapers forced
him to stop playing the Pals. The

STELLA NEWTON, r. R. 8, Portland,
Indiana.
Mothers-You should carefully guard
your daughters health. Advise her of
the danger which comes from standing
around with cold or wet feet, from lifting
heavy articles, or overworking. Do not
let her overstudy.
If she complains of headache, painsi in
back orlower limbs, or if you notice a
slowness of thought, nervousness or ir-
ritability on the part of your daughter,
give her careful attention.

pound is an excellent medicine for your
daughter to take, as it is especially
adopted torelieve just such symptoms.

try, was in hospital in Jacksonville
during the last road trip of the Pals.
Blue also knows if there ever was an
umpire beyond reproach that it is
Poole, and that he has umpired many
games in st. Augustine and is &C.
ceptable now to Ocala, who is play
ing under him, and will be acceptable
to Leesburg when that club comes
here.
Blue gets lot of satisfaction out
of the disastrous road trip the Pals
made last week with crippled team,
on muddy fields and against clubs
considerably stronger than the
Saints. The Pals are content to stand
on their record for the season.
Walter Lynch has some nice
things to say about the Pals in to-
days T.-U. He credits this club,
with the Lake City aggregation, as
being the strongest in the state. He
should also reckon with Ocala, which,
with one or two first-class hitters,
would be hard to beat.
