Geneseo, Ill. June 1.-THE Gene
SEQ White Sox suffered their first
shut-out of the season in a game
played here Sunday afternoon. At
kinson revenged their defeat on
Memorial day, winning by a score
of 2 to 0.
In another pitchers duel, Geiger
had the best of the argument. He
held Geneseo to five safe hits, not
more than one coming in any in
ming. He gave but two bases on
balls and struck out Is men. Ryd-
berg, too, pitched a creditable
game. He walked three men in
succession in the fifth inning but
none scored. He gave four bases
on balls, yielded eight hits, had a
mild pitch and struckout II bats
men. The hits for extra bases
were divided evenly, each team reg
istering two doubles. Atkinson had
Is men left on bases against four
for Geneseo.

REDSLOOMINC
DANGER TO
GIANTS TEAM
Pat Moran Shows Signs of Easing
Into Lead Before October
Rolls Around.
BY JOHN B. FOSTER.

Copyright, 1922, by The ATguS.D
New York, June 13.-If Moran
continues to develop~the Cincinnati
team at the same ratio of progress
which he has created since the lat
ter part of April he has the great
chance of his life to be the new
miracle man of the National
league The National league has
customarily been unstrung for
miracle men" because it usually
has been dominated by one or two
managers who have beaten the
others to the bunting. Arson had
his days of supremacy, so did
Frank Selee. so did Hanlon and
Frank Chance. Arson ran every
thing but the turnstiles in the days
of his greatest glory and he creased
them
Moran has gained nearly 200
points since he started off at Gin
cinnati by losing everything except
his faith in the repeal Of the Vol
stead law before he dies His start
was as frightful as the delusion of
the man who tries the new flying
smoke
He overCame it by plugging. He
doesn't gamble. He just puts one
foot ahead of the other. Some man
ayers take chances at odds that
seem to be ruinous. If they win
they float on the icing of the lucky
cake. Others never take a chance
and for periods never take a game.
When they start to win they are
as methodical as when they lost.
The Cincinnati team has de-
veloped lot of speed that the play
ers never showed when they were
bushers. On the merits of pitching
alone they are doing better than the
pitchers of the Giants 1t is inter
esting to note that while the Gin
cinnatis have gained 200 points, the
Giants have lost about 200. If that
sort of thing keeps on the time viii
come when the Giants just natur-
ally will be passed by the Cincin-
natl ship some night. What Moran
is laboring to do is to bring it about
before Oct. l. He has been a good
dark horse before
1t is quite true that the present
series has gained no ham and
spinach for the Reds, as the Giants
have evened up On them for what
Cincinnati did TO New York in Gin
cinnati, yet the Cincinnatis do not
look pain-stricken

BOB MONA AND
JEFF SMITH TO
FIGHT MONDAY
Viii CiUe Chance For
Better Line of
Jersey Man.
RY FAIR PLAY.

Copyright, 1922, by The Argus
New York, June 13-Jeff Smith
has been matched to fight Bob Moha
next Monday night at Milwaukee.
This fight will throw light upon the
curious development of the Jersey
middleweight, who of late has
shown a strange tendency to stow
his opponents away via the knock
out route. This spring and summer
he has had seven fights and scored
knockouts in all of them.
Jeff is d funny fighter-funny in
the sense that he seems to be able
TO stand up against the best of
them and not get into trouble Even
Harry Greb doesn't like the Smith
game. This is because Jeff's pecul-
lar methods of fighting make even
the best look slow and bad and no
one of class likes TO be shown up.
But since Smith has begun to work
up a more aggressive scheme of
boxing and to prove that he packs
a real wallop he is likely to hook
on to some good engagements. That
is, if he wins convincingly over
Moha, who is nobody's setup.
Johnny Dundee, who has been
complaining that his junior light
weight title is an empty one be
cause he can find no contender at
that weight, may wake up one of
these days. To be specific he may
wake up after June 90 On that
day Jack Sharkey is going to give
Pepper Martin a chance to show
that their first fight-in which Pep
was lucky to get a draw decision
was all a mistake. If Sharkey
trims Martin then he is going after
that junior title He can easily
make the weight.

MORE RUNNING
RACES AT FAIR

More running horses for the Mis-
sissippi Valley Fair and Exposition
is the plan of Manager H. E. Bacon.
He aims to double the number of
entries in this class of horse races
over last year. Every known own
er of running horses in the west
and south has been invited to show
here.
In addition TO this wide advertis-
ing for jumpers, Manager Bacon
plans to attend every early running
meet in this part of the country
and TO extend an invitation to the
derby horse owners and the fra
ternity in general to compete in
the races in Davenport. Aug. 1919.
He has just returned from the
spring running meet
ing at Omaha. There were some
500 running horses at this show
and the Mississippi valley executive
visited all of the stable owners and
extended them a personal invita-
ton to come to Davenport.
