thespro blem arises.
Tommy Taylor is too good a
player, too good a hitter to hold
down regular berth on any
bench in the league. He ought to
be out there lending his smuggling
ability to his mates in the quest
for victories. And he probably
would be but for slump in his
hitting and fielding just before
the team left town two weeks
ago.
Taylor has had a rest now, and
could probably step in and play
the game of his career. At any
rate, it's a certainty that he
would try, for being benched goes
against the grain with any man.
The team has been losing regu-
larly since Taylor was taken from
the lineup. 1t doesn't seem that
it would hurt matters much to
give the veteran third baseman a
chance to show his wares again.
= when all other value censes,
there is one thing at which Tny-
Tor will probably never cease
shining, and that is pinch hitting.
Tommy was used as pinch hit
ter during the past road trip, and
his timely cIOuting was reyela-
ton. Does ii mean that Tommy
has that intangible something the
critics rave about. that enables n
man to step into the gang in a
pinch and clout the pill down the
alley for n safetys
Lew Silvers VS.. Jackie Saun-
ders, that will probably be the
next match at the b. A. c.,
Tommy Tompkins, matchmaker,
stated last night. The bout, if
it goes through, will take place
week from Friday night.
Tommy stated that Slvers-
the chap who won from PrLto at
Atlanta short time ago-is
ready, and that all remains to be
done is the signing of Saunders.

Hoped the Bruins right nicely in

The outlook is not so dismal

are just five and One-half games
behind the league leaders. 1t
would tn,-e only n small sized
sprint to climb up into select
company. Such close punching
of teams is the result of one Of
the tightest races the Southern
has seen In years.
The league goat this season
seems to be Little Rock, the only
team in the circuit which has a
percentage to really be ashamed
of. Six of the eight teams are
of 500 ranking or better, and
the Barons are only four games
behind that mark themselves.
Birmingham is noted for turn
ing out a team that is slow to
start, yet finishes in a squirt that
throws a cloud of dust in all but
one or two other contenders. If
Dunns men could hop away on
one of those sprints right now,
the outlook might change from
disappointing to downright brill
lance.
The series with the Bruins was

Nearly $50 Race Horses Are
Trapped In MaIpe Heights
Stables Thursday

CLEVELAND, O., May 31.-Eight
thoroughbred race horses and a pony
were burned to death in fire which
destroyed five barns at the Ohio
State Jockey clubs race track at
Maple Heights, near Bedford, o.,
late today. Nearly $50 race horses
were trapped in the barns and mat
not more were lost was due to the
heroism of scores of race goers and
attendants who cut the animals
loose and let them run at large. Sew
eral were so badly burned they may
have to be killed.
Those killed were well known to
followers of the running race horse.
They were Susiana. three-year-old,
winner of two events at the present
meeting; Huron II. 60. and Short
stop (S), owned by J. A. Parsons of
Cheyenne, Wyo., and Long Island
a.. Port Light Qo), Mambi 90, and
the Ulster go, in the stables of A. S.
Eastman of Toledo.
All have been winners on various
tracks of America. The eighth horse
was unidentified.
Port Light lost his life, when,
after being cut loose, he ran back
Starting in one of the barns when
an oil stove Is said, to have exploded,
the fire, fed by hay and straw,
spread quickly to adjoining build
ings, and in a few moments the en-
tire back stretch was a mass of
flames. The horses were just enter
ing the home stretch in the fifth
event when the fire was discovered,
but a majority of the fans did not
wait for the finish and headed for
the barns, a quarter of mile from
the grandstand.
The loss to the stables was placed
at $4,000 by General Manager F. n.
Holman The loss on the animals
could not be learned but 1t may run
as high as 100000.
The sixth and seventh races were
DELAYED but were run off. The sixth
was won by Blazonry, one OF the AMI
mails rescued.
