Strong Kansas City Club Too Good For Local
 Negro Nine

The Kansas City Monarchs, leaders of the Negro National league. did all their tricks at Redwood park Wednesday art ernoon as they took their third straight game from the Black Bar0ns and ex- hibited the full brand of diamond play that has given them unquestioned su- premacy in the circuit Runs came down like hail stones as the winners ran over eight in the second inning and were off to a great lead, which the locals. failed to threaten until the last three innings of the game, when they ran over total of five. The final score was 16 to D.
 Eighteen hits were collected off the de- livery of Dismukes and Richardson, five of the tallies coming when the former was holding the mound in the second in ming. Other runs came ins the third. fourth, nfth, sixth and ninth. The visi- tors never seeming to. be satistated as they put the local athletes on the pass ing cloud and rode lem high and far.
 Joseph. the great home run king, added another to his growing string, while dou- bles, triples and circuit smaahes we're but incidents in the fun of the afternoon.
 Despite the heavy score, the local team fought hard. Even in the last innings of the game with fifteen runs to overcome, they came back with all that was in them to put over five runs and show real scoring teeth. .tss1 .z,' <

AMERICA CONTINUES
 FAST OLYMPIC PACE
Spectacular 200 Metres Duel Between Scholz < And Paddock Features

V z. ,. ' t
 OLYMPIC STADIUM COLOMBES FRANCE, July 9.--America with her mighty track and field forces is stead fly piling up formidable margin over her gallant rival, Finland and she also equared accounts today with Great Brit ain in the spectacular duel of the two nations for the Olympic speed laurels, when the veteran American whirlwind, Jackson W. Scholz, New York A. C., swept to triumph in the 2000 metres dash. The Stars and Stripes went up on the victory pole with the greatest thrill that has yet marked the historic athletic fray.
 Finishing. the last ten metres like a catapult, Scholz won a sensational race by inches from his countryman, Charles W. Paddock, who, after leading to within a few strides of the tape, threw what seemed to be certain victory for him to the winds by slightly turning his head to see his closest rival. That neeting instant of waywardness cost the Californian the glory O. an Olympic crown, but did not change the final triumph of the United States.
 Saving in this way the second of her most sprized track crowns, America l. accomplished almost the complete down. fall, of the British fliers, for Harold Abrahams, the Cambridge star, who had given a stunning setback to the : United States Monday when he cap tured the 100-metre event, finished poor last, while his codutryman, B. H. Liddell, only succeeded in taking third place with the slightest of margins over George Hill, University of Penn sylvAnia, and Bayes Norton of Yale.
 America made it twos out of three in the days finals, when Dan Kinsey; University of Illinois,, won another brilliant duel with Atkinson, of South Africa, for the laurels in the 100- metre hurdle race.
