Score Keepers Kept
Busy Marking Up
the Figures While
til e G a m e Pro-
crossed

About 100 were served, there being
three seatings, each being So plates.
No one knows how many chickens
were used nor how many pies were
consumed, but there were more
than necessary baskets of remain
ders and a generous supply for
supper.
Volley ball was played in relays,
two games going ON simultaneously,
Horseshoe pitching was INDUCED
in also. The big event was the ball
game between the Fairfield Red
Sox and the Preachers Blue Sox.
The lineup was as follows,
Red Sox Blue Sox
Orvil Lewis ~ b---.J. w. Harris
Jas. Gillem 2 w. e. Horn
Milo Delap ---3 b w. Warren
Gus Lewis - SIS. Weishaar
Harry Holt ---s st. r. Niven
e. Caflisch ----rf w. s. Bowden
Geo. Radlund f Xix & Higgins
III. V, Craker &c Earl Thomas
The batteies were:
Glen Delap e. G. Henke
Ray Delap -----p- L. u, Peckham
The umpire was Q. A. Loveland-
Decisions were only disputed
twice. 1
One home run hit was made by
Ray Delap at which the rooters for
Fairfield went wild The Red SoX
pitcher walked three men on balls
as these were the crack batters for
the Preachers. T. r. Niven made
| two home run scores for the Blue
Sox, while Holt and Delays made
three each ~
The Blue Sox pitcher struck ont
four Fairfield profess 'onals much to
the confusion of the umpire and
the delight of the rootera from Bar
aboo. Weishaar stopped red hot
liner and put out man at second
base. Two double plays were made
by Horn and Harris and the same
were duplicated by Gillem and
Thomas.
Through the second inning the
Blue Sox pitcher fooled the opposite
batters but after that, the Red Sox
rallied and in the third inning put
six scores to their credit. The
game was called after the fourth
inning on account Of rain when the
score showed Red Sox 20, Blue Sox
10.
The score keepers were Revs.
Dunlap and Nuzum.
The following guests were pres
emit:
Rev. and Mrs. w. e. Horn, Prairie

PAYS To TAKE
No CHANGE
IN RING
Loafing IN One Bout Costs
Gibbons Between $50, 900
and s1oo.o 900
BY THOMAS s. RICE.

Tom Gibbons Is now In England
to box Bloomfield for q large purse.
He would have gone there in 1912
to box Carpenter for possibly a
larger purse II it had not been for
one lacladaisical performance when
he was galIivanting around the
country engaging in no-decislon
bouts with all corners, but risking
decisions only with third and fourth
raters.
On February 8, 1920, in Portland,
Ore, II we are not mistaken, Glib.
bons had q cinch with Boy Nc
Cornick, who later became light
heavyweight champion of England.
Mccormick was estimated in Eng
land at exactly his value In New
York, where he was held to be
promising material for a good third
rater II he should not be killed in
the making. Gibbons got q shock
when his ten-round bout with Nc.
Cormick was called a draw.
That practically barred Gibbons
as q top-liner In England until after
he had struck fifteen rounds with
Jack Dempsey last year. and had
outpointed Carpenter on May 81
Of this year. Nobody in England
would have had any faith in a man
who could do no better than draw
with Mccormick, and tentative pro-
posals to have him meet Carpenter
In London in 1922 were fatty re-
jected.
The moral IL that loafing on the
job with Mccormick cost Gibbons
between $4,000 and 500, 900, and
the moral should be borne in mind
by all boxers.
The man you loaf with today
may become the champion tomor-
row, as Kid Sullivan recently and
unexpectedly became junior light
weight champion by beating Dun
dee, after Mike Ballerino beat the
tar out Of Sullivan. Mike didn't
loaf, ana bis prestige went up so
per cent when the man he had
whipped became so shortly there
after the champion 13O.pounder.

LEFTY GROVES SALE
IS RUMoRED AGAIN

SYRACUSE, N. Y, July "a
They're selling Lefty Groves again.
One Of the Syracuse papers claims
that the Cincinnati Reds will be
the team to which Lefty win 90
when he moves up to the majors.
However, Dunn laughs at the
dope printed. That's all bunk, .
said Dunn. But, nevertheless, the
owner of the Orioles does not say
that he isn't going to sell Groves
at the close Of the season.
However. 1t Is believed that II
won't be long before the star south.
paw OF the Flock goes UP, and 1t
is believed that Dunn knows &ust
what club wants him.
Groves would like to 60 UP. He
is anxious to get chance in the
big leagues. The paper here SAYS
that this is likely to be Groves
last trip to Syracuse.
