Woco Pep Loses to Mills Team, 1O-5
 tn Slugging Battle

The local Woco Pep ball team lost to the Mignon Mills nine at Syla- cauga yesterday in a game which, after three innings of hectic slug ging, turned out to be an airtight battle. The final score was 10 to 5 but only two of the total runs were scored after the third inning.
 Curly Byrd of East Lake started on the mound for the Mignon Mills outfit and held the Woco Peppers to four runs until relieved in the fourth inning by the veteran Molly" Fra ger. Three pitchers undertook the hurling burden for the Woco out fit. Huffstutfer was knocked out of the box in the first inning by fusi- Jade of wallops that netted two runs and McWhorter fared but little bet ter in the two innings that he worked, the Mignon Millers gather ing seven runs on him. The Woco southpaw, Sam Hart. held the left handed sluggers of Syiacauga to trhee hits in the six innings he worked.
 For the Mignon Mills outfit the hit- ting of Gates. local boy, stood out as feature, while home run drive over the fence by Curly Byrd was the hardest wallop of the game.
 The batteries: Woco Pep, Huffstut- Ter. McWhirter. Hart %nd G. Gal- baugh; Mignon Mills, Byrd. Frazer and Hill.

Labor Day Match
 BetWeen "Jack" and
 Jess" Is Considered

Los Angeles, June 15.--Jack Demp- sey. heavyweight champion pugilist, may meet Jess Willard, from whom he won the title, in return match next Labor Day. Jack Kearns. manager of the champion. said this afternoon.
 Kearns said he was leaving for the east tomorrow. and while there would take up propositions from Floyd Fitz- simmons. promoter of Benton Harx OCT, Mlch- and Tex Rickard of New York for . Dempsey Willard match.
 kearns said he received a message from Fitzsimmons today asking if A match could be arranged between Dempsey and Willard or Dempsey and Brennan.
 The Willard match would be pref erable to us," Kearns said If the terms are satisfactory and there Is a public demand for it."
 There Is nothing to it." Kearns de- clared, in answer to willard's charge that Dempsey was "sidestepping" a return match with him. Dempsey has always been willing to meet him again if satisfactory arrangements could be made. and I feel the same about it.
 Rickard seems to be very eager to put on Dempsey Willard fight, and we are willing to come to terms with him or any other reputable promoter. l understand that Rickard does not care as much. as he did for a Demp- sey-Harry Wills battle"

Selma, June 15.--After losing the first three games of the season played on foreign soil, the Selma nine .on the home field this afternoon. conn pletely exonerated themselves by winning from the fast Camden ag- gregation 10 to ?.

DoubLe-Header Is On;
 Chicks Open Series
Boss Carlton MoIesworth Re- turns to Helm After Three Day Suspension For Run-in With Umpire.
By HENRY VANCE

Carlton Moleswerth. looking very much the worse for wear, will return to the split bottomed chair this after noon and attempt to lead his ball club from the wreckage and debris piled up during his enforced absence from the bench. The Baronial manager was banished three days ago from participation in the giving of sig nals and advice, by virtue of his run in with Umpire Lewis. following a close ball game.
 Moiey did not resort to physical .iolence in his encounter with Lewis. but he did wield a wicked verbal att tack that brought down the wrath of the umpire on his head, and after the flashing Lewis reported things to the league president and Moley drew suspension.
 Suspensions have played whaley with the Barons the past few days, as Stuffy Stewart is also out on an enforced loafing spree and 1t will be three more bali games before he can take his turn at second and bol- ster up hopeless infteld.
 The Memphis Chicks open series here today with a double bill at the Wood" and the Memphis team comes here from a conquest over in Att lanta in which it beat the Atlantans five straight games and hung up the ninth consecutive victory.
 Mike. Eberhard one of the most dependable pitchers of the local crew will toss 'em for Moley in the first game and big Phil Morrison will do slab duty in the other game. in an effort to make it his thirteenth vic- tory of the season.
 The Barons suffered one of their most disastrous series of che year. when the Little Rockers beat them four out of five games. But for ragged work afield the Barons would have reversed the thing completely. Moley's flock of pastimers probably lead the world in or-making for the year.
 This afternoons first game gets going at 2:15.

Huntsville Wins Three

Gadsden. June Special )-The Huntsville Hawks made it three straight wins over the Gadsden Grey hounds yesterday afternoon when they defeated them by the score of to 3 in a Thinning game.
 The game was a pitchers battle be- tween Spears for the Greyhounds and Graham for the Hawks for IS in- nngs, with the score tied and 9. At the beginning of the fourteenth inning Spears was relieved by Hes ter and the Hawks romped on him for four runs. winning the game.
 The Greyhounds will go to Hunts vile next week for three games with the Hawks.

Umps Harry Johnson picked up a report to the league presi- dent and hit Stuffy so hard with it that Stuffy is still out.
 Stuffy doesn't exactly fancy the idea of warming the bench these hot days. He says It's aI- ready warm enough.
 His suspension has three more days to run. This means the To- cal fan flock will see him In but one more local game before the team hits the road.
 And, as one wag remarked, it is to be hoped that the club can hit the road better than it has been hitting opposing pitchers. stuffy's absence from the line up hns hurt, but it looks like a fellow named Kane should be able to play second base.
 'Sgood Iden Mawrus
 The note from H. l.. s. sounds apropoer than anything we have lamped in some time. It reads: Dear ''Old Dollaf Biil." Why can't we get the baseball club to skip over the ninth inning and play another one and call it the tenth? It seems to me that this is the only way that the hoodoo can be chased. Let's hope that they can do this, and maybe it will have better luck. It can't be any worse. I will leave 1t to you, if may. to take this matter up with Rick and Moley. and see if they won't approve of it.
 Yours for cutting in on the 9th.
