Cummings McFadden Fuss At
tracing Attention of Tri-
city Fand0m.

Tickets for the George Cum
nlings-Bud McFadden mitt flinglng
contest in Moline Turner hall next
Friday evening were placed on sale
at various cigar stores in the try
cities today. There is unusual IN
terest in this bout and indications
point to a dandy advance sale.
Smiths gym in Davenport request
ed a block of 100 choice paste
boards and the Hickey store in the
Harper house in Rock Island also
asked for like number. The bout
is arousing more interest than the
Donahue-Carney struggle few
weeks ago.
Due to the fact that it was neces-
sary to guarantee the principals OF
this go an amount in excess OF
the share received by Donahue and
Carney in the first show sponsored
by the Anderson club, Matchmak
err Jimmy Anderson has found "
necessary to. raise the price OF the
first three rows of ringside seats
so cents each, plus war tax. There
will be more dollar seats than at
the first entertainment and the
VI 10 NSie
sions, suiting the purse of every
fan who cares to- attend.
The semi-windup and prelimin-
airy bouts have not been decided
upon but it is probable that Bum
Sells will be given another chance
at Morris Wayaert. Sells asked for
this opportunity Immediately after
his drastic defeat by the Moline
boys wicked jabs at the last show
and was promised the chance. The
only drawback is the money ques-
ton. Both boys want twice as
much as they received for the other
contest and. because of the limited
seating capacity at Turner hall, it
is impossible for the Anderson club
to pay big sums to subordinate
bouts. 1t is very likely that the
battlers will come to Anderson
terms in a day or so, however.

New York, April 24.-Bombardier
Wells, the British heavyweight,
with the lovely boxing ability and
the glassiest jaw that ever grew
on fighter, is coming into his own
in London again. The night Sol
der Jones of Canada had Albert
Lloyd licked to FRAGILE and then
lost on foul, Bombardier received
great acclaim by the fight fans. He
and Lloyd, by the way, meet this
week at the National Sporting club,
and if he gets by Albert he will be
set for another climb.
Canadians and others who know
and like Soldier Jones, the Domin-
ion heavyweight king, will be in
terested to read some details of the
fight against Lloyd which he so
foolishly threw away. The, Austria
Ian. who is a clever boxer, was
leading on points up to the ninth
round In this frame, however, he
stuck his Jaw in the way of one of
the Soldiers we'll known right hand
haymakers. Down he went as
though one of his native kangaroos
had kicked him in the chest. Lloyd
got up. but was far from a well
man. Jones sent him to the floor
again. and then once again.
Maybe. as Lloyd assayed to arise
the third time, Jones lost his pa
tience. Anyway, he lost his head
and walloped the antipodean while
he was on his knees. Thus the
fight went f1ooey

TRIO OF HOME
RUNS IN GAME
IS new RECORD
Kenneth Williams of st. Louis
First to Turn Stunt in Ameri.
can League.
By JOHN B. FOSTER.

! Copyright. 1922, by The August
I New York. April "a. - Kenneth
Williams. outfielder of the ST. Louis
American league club, batted three
home runs in one game. This for
the first time that any American
league player has done that since
the American league came into ex-
istence. The home runs were bal
ted against the pitchers of the Chi
cago club.
! Not even Babe Ruth, with all his
home run increment and excite
ment, has been. able to dust the
ball for three homers in one con-
test. Once this spring he admit
ted that he was yearning TO swat
three homers in one game. He
wanted to be the first man to do it
for his circuit Too late; the ediat
of the high commissioner has put
! the swatting sultan on the blink
He may make his three home runs
if there is still within him such an
ambition but he will not be the
first American Lacquer to make
them. His only chance to be an
original home run multiplier is to
make four in one game. The Amer
can league was founded in 1900 and
it has taken all of this time TO find
a player who could hit three hon.
ers in one game.
1t is odd, too, that each of the
home runs should have been made
when Sisler was on the bases. Fate
had ordained a freak show What
pity that a holiday crowd could
not have seen it and how the folks
will brag who did see it. Then
Williams added another the next
day making four in two days
Nine in National.
Nine players in the National
league have batted three home runs
in one game. The first was Ned
Williamson in 1884 The same year
both Arson of Chicago and Mann
ing of Philadelphia hit triples for
four bases. Twice in 1856 it hap
pened, Roger Connors Of New
York and Dan Brouthers of De
troit doing it. In 1894 Frank Shu-
CART of st. Louis and Bill Joyce Of
Washington did it. In 1897 Tom
McCreery of Louisville and Jake
BeckIey of Cincinnati hit three, ana
not ball player has done it since
until Kenneth Williams put the
feat over for the first time in the
American league.
If nothing happens for the re-
mainder of the season the Amer.
lean league at least has made a
record.
Things are going very badly in
the National league for Cincinnati
and in the American league for
Washington. Both of the clubs
need pitchers. Cincinnati has
shown nothing of class. Washing
ton is just classy enough not to
be above par. The WashingtOns
have had good pitching to face al
most from the beginning of the sea
son because they have had eight
games scheduled with New York
and the Yankees have got the
pitchers. In addition to that the
American league champions have
been profting by timely hitting
But note carefully that timely hit
ting with good pitching is the most
scrumptious tribute that any base
ball nine can have to win a cham
pionship.
Some of the Yankee batters may
be going above their natural speed
but with pitchers who can keep the
batters of other teams off the bases
it doesn't take a whale of lot Of
speed to get there first.
