. NEW YORK, July 2o.-If the Gin
cinnati Reds should win the National
League pennant this year. the winners
Of the American League will have to
play them. No objections of the
American League to RUDE Benton,
now pitching for the Reds. will be al
lowed to stand in the way Of the world
series. because Benton has been de-
clared eligible by Commissioner Lam
dis.
Thus John Heydler, president Of the
National League, dismissed reports to-
day that Ban Johnson, president of
the American League, would order the
American League winner to abstain
from the series if the Reds should
happen to be the opposing team.
Heydler said Lands had settled the
question OF Bentons eligibility and
that his decision must be binding on
both circuits.

Some concern is being felt about
Leonard's ability to make the weight,
but Billy Gibson, his manager. said
today the champion was under 1876
pounds now and that he would not fill
out much before the day OF the fight.
Champ Tries Verbal Blows
Leonard. who makes good use Of his
talking machine, in and out Of the
ring, has been directing verbal shots
at the Philadelphia challenger from
his training camp up in the Catskills.
"Ill just play around with him for
a while. and let him have it in about
the seventh round" the champion said
today.
There Is no press agent stun in the
story that there is little love lost be-
tween Tender and Leonard, The fall
ing out came when Tender grabbed a
$4,000 forfeit after Leonard had
broken a hand and could not go
through with a bout scheduled in
Philadelphia some time back. 1t is
understood Tender returned the for
felt money recently.
Looks Good to Experts
All of the experts who have looked
over the champion in training say he
seems to be in perfect condition. His
two fights with Pinkey Mitchell and
Alex Hart apparently got him back on
edge.
Tender, according to those who
have seen the challenger. is also, in
good physical and mental fettle.

There's nothing wishy-washy about
the new athletic heads. The, way
they talked and the way they looked
pets of high school athletic glory who
think they can get by without
putting out" on gridiron, diamond
or hardwood.
Real spirit and morale was en-
phasized by Clevenger and Ingram
and the honest, straight forward way
they said it made the crowd of alumni
believe it.
New Coaches, New Stadium
Indiana has had some unfortunate
years in athletics But no school with
the pep shown last night can stay
down forever. The new stadium, the
new coaches and a new spirit it is
hoped will work wonders at the State
institution.
No school, no matter how large or
small, can always be at the height of
athletic achievement. but 1. u. lately
has not had It's share Of time in the
sun. AS some Of the alumni expressed
1t at the meeting-"All we want is our
share, and we are going to get it."
1t seems on first impressions that
the coaches secured may go a long
way toward bringing about the hopes
Of many who have dreamed these past
years of real triumphs in the realm Of
sports.
The Speech Making
Dick Miller was POSTMASTER at the
dinner and talks OF all sorts were
made. Clevenger and Ingram spoke
briefly Among the other speakers
were President w. L. Bryan, ]. w.
Fesler, chairman of the board of
trustees. Professor Sembower, DR..
Moenkhaus, head OF the faculty
athletic committee, Homer Mckee,
DR.. Robert ]. Alley Of Butler, r. z.
Lindsey, and Phebe Messick. John
W. Cravens gave a description Of the
stadium plans.
Leslie Mann, basketball and base
ball coach. could not be present be-
cause OF his baseball duties. Mann
was secured by Cincinnati by the
waiver route recently from ST. Louis
and now has a better chance to get
IN on some worlds series money.

BIZ Times Special
ST. PAUL. July 20.-No game for
the Indians today, but not all of them
were elated. The happenings at
Lexington Park Thursday formed a
harsh hangover for some Of the
athletes and they didn't feel like
staging a picnic on the day off.
Several of the athletes tried to for
get their sorrow by going fishing
while others went to Minneapolis TO
see the Colonies and Millers play.
The Hoosiers are to open a series
with the Millers Saturday and when
that round Of games has been con-
cluded they will return to Indianapo-
lis.
NIispIays Cause Defeat
The terrible error ink caused tbs
6efeat Of the Tribesmen in the wind
up battle with the Champion Saints
Thursday. The score was 8 to 2, ten
innings. Bill Burwell pitched big
league ball and he had the Kelleyites
ccwed until his defense cracked.
Until-Bill's defense collapsed he
had the Saints shut out, 1 to 0. Spud
Campbell drove out home-run in the
third inning and that marker looked
good enough to win until the last half
of the ninth. A poor relay by jan
win of a throw-in from the outfeld
helped the Saints tie the contest in
the ninth.
In the tenth Burweu drove Kruger
home, and again IT looked as though
the Tribe was sure to win. Then the
Tribe balloon went soaring.
Champs Handed Two Runs
The Saints We're handed two runs
by infield errors that nearly caused
Manager Hendricks to faint in the
dugout. 1t was horrible inning for
the Tribe timer works. Janvrtn threw
one wild to first and fumbled another.
Sticking also wabbled slightly on a
grounder that the home scorers saw
fit to record as an inf1eld hit.
Spud Campbell played a brilliant
game at third and got a double In
addition to his home-run.
The Indians got an even break on
the series with the champions, which
is something to be proud Of at thai.
but the Hoosiers refuse to boast of
the feat because they realize they
should have had three out of four.
