r vile Sunday.

Manager Earl Mack of Moline
and Catcher Minintree have been
fined and indefinitely suspended by
AL Tearney for their actions at
Evansville Sunday, when a small
riot ensued as a result of the catch
er's mixup with the umpire.
Minintree got into an argument
and resorted to his fists to settle
the issue. Other players interven-
ed and in a jiffy the fun was on.
When the situation was quieted,
Mack led his players off the field,
refusing to continue. The Moline
club was fined $3.50 for this action
on the part of its manager.

Wally and 500 for Thomson.
Thomson will step into center

Mike Donlin, scout for the Bos-

around Rock Island several days In
hopes of seeing Carl 60 at 1t again
but the pitchers inability to rejoir
the club on account of his wife's
illness forestalled this.
Anyhow Mike became convinced
that Carl is worthy of a trial IL

advised the local association thai
he stands ready to pay cash fol

Willie Hunter, the amateur
golfer, reported debarred from ANA
teur play by action of the United
States Golf association, Is still an
amateur in good standing in
fact as in name. The United States
Golf association has taken no &C
ton against him, nor is there any
likelihood that action will be taken
since Hunter in sport and in bust
ness has a perfectly clean bill of
health to show the world.
George Won Elm of Salt Lake is
probably just as good an amateur
as Hunter. Yet his name was
coupled with that of Hunter in a
report emanating from Chicago to
the effect that hereafter IL they
played golf at all they must play
as professionals.
1t looks as though somebody got
excited and pulled a trigger before
the birds had been flushed. That a
reign of terror is imminent has
been in the air for some time and
no one close to the inner councils
of the golf association has any
doubt that before long the old ex-
ecutioners' block is going to be
dragged out of dark obscurity and
set up in the public square for
business. Similarly the rasping
sound of the grindstone as it sharp
ems the broad axe to a razor's edge
has filled the country Of late.
But Willie Hunter and probably
Won Elm are not among the IL or
so golfers whose heads, it is be-
lieved, will shortly fall into the
basket. Hunter is the British
golfer who won the British anna
teur title early in the summer OF
1921 and then came to this country
where he has since lived. He is in
the cloth business and his calling
has nothing whatever to do witt
golf. 1t is likely that the presence

Here is an item that was not given
scare headlines in the daily press 1t
is a press dispatch from Knoxville,
Tenn, and reads as follows:
Members of the United Mine Work
ers Of America employed at Henry
Ford's coal mines in Kentenia, Har-
Ian county, Kentucky, will not be af-
fected by a strike call, according to
5. A. Keller, president District No
10, Y. M w A., in whose jurisdiction
the mines are located.
Ford S paying So more per day
than other mines in this district, and
is selling his coal for at least so
cents per ton less than the other
mines" Keller declared
Henry Ford is business man.
Every enterprise he takes hold Of he
operates primarily for profit, and he
undoubtedly is making profits from his
coal mines. How comes it that he
can pay his men So day more than
the operators in the same field and
yet sell his product for less? Does
Mt this fact make the claim of the
other coal operators look decidedly
fshy?
