keeping this team among the top
notchers.
With league baseball thing of
the past this season, attention
from now on will be centered on
Coach Zimperman's Apache foot
ball team whinh has played two
games so far this season and won
both. Next Saturday Nogales
high plays Douglas in Nogales.
Let's all turn out and help root
the locals to victory.
The Gilbert high school foot
ball team has been suspended
from participation in high school
athletics until November Is, 1925,
for alleged violation of eligibility
rules of football players. This
actin automatically forfeits to
Tucson and the Phoenix high
school second team the game each
has lost to Gilbert this season.
AS result, Coach Paulu's team is
re-instated in running as a con-
CenQer LOT SCdLe ana SOUTHWESTERN
championship honors, and Gilbert
is eliminated as bidder for
these titles.
Queer things happen in base
ball as in everything else. The
Nogales team which had been win
ming many victories, "blew up like
balloon, in the game at Mesa
Thursday, and lost by score of
IA to s.
Walters and the whole bunch
seemed to have an off day Thurs
day. Three pitchers - Walters,
Dulanty, and Ruiz-were used but
nothing could stop the Jewels.
It was a disappointed bunch of
fans leaving the Montezuma lob
by Thursday, after they had
watched the results on the cleo
trical scoreboard.

PARK IN ST. LOUIS
REAL HOMER FIELD

The Philadelphia National League
Park is rapidly losing its reputation
as the bandboX playing field of the
jors, to that on which the ST
Louis Browns and Cardinals jointly
perform.
Fifty home runs have been made on
the Philadelphia field so far this sea-
son. But If you think so is getting
anywhere, just consider the record
of the st. Louis field. Out there the
Browns have passed the SIS mark and
are heading now for 20, while the
Cardinals, absent most of the time
to date, have smacked or seen the
opposition get II homers.
Loss of its reputation as bandbox
will be a sore blow to the Philly pitch
ers, and for all other pitchers who
performed on the Quaker City lot. for
that matter. In the old days when
pitcher got n licking there he could
alibi on the ground that the short
fences of that field would shiver the
heart of any pitcher.
Ball players who made a lot of home
runs on the Philly field were given
little credit by their fellows for their
feat.
But that's all changed now. At
best, the Philly lot is only the second
smallest bandboX in 50 far as the
home-run hitting goes. The play of
the two leagues on the st. Louis field
makes it the "home-runningest" field
in the world.

ROOKIE AUTO DRIVER
MAY STAR In GRIND
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May ga
comparatively newcomer in the auto
mobile racing world threatens the pop
ularity of the stars of years standing.
He is Pete de Paolo, nephew of
Ralph de Palma. De Paolo is consid-
cred the bright light of the quartet
which will drive Indianapolis-made
speedsters in the 500-mile race at the
Indianapolis motor speedway May 80.
In practice the youngster, who has
been behind the wheel of n race car
less than three years. drove a lap at
Ill miles an hour, the fastest time
for the distance ever made at the
speedway. The timing was unofficial.
De Paolo likes to ride fast; he en-
lows the thrill of the skid on the sharp
corners of the local track and the
plaudits of the pre-race crowd. His
daring has won him a host of friends
already and he is expected to be one
of the most prominent contenders.
He finished sixth in the 1924 race
here He is topped this year only by
Tommy Milton in the contest for the
driving championship. De Paolo's 3
most notable performance this Spring
was a victory in a 150-mile dash over
the mile board track at Fresno,
Calf.
De Paolo gained his first experience
riding as a mechanician for de Palma
and handles a machine in much the
same manner as his uncle.

Squirrels also practice this sort of
deception. After stealthy examina-
ton of every detail of your outfit, ac-
companied by much tasting and
smelling. they will suddenly scurry
up some nearby tree and go into a
veritable frenzy of chirking and chat
tering, which they hope will express
surprise, alarm, Indignation and their
personal opinion of your unwarranted
intrusion upon their privacy.
1 suppose that their instinct of type
preservation impels them to warn the
others of danger, but innate curiosity
prevents them from giving alarm un-
til they have found out all about the
stranger. This information they will
doubtless retail later to their neigh
bors in truly human fashion.

Catching AS Not Easy.
If either of these two twirlers falls
down on his assignment the last
chance of the Nationals to hike home
with even a virtual tie for the league
leadership will have finished, for the
Griffs this morning were trailing the
Mackmen by two full games and an

There was a possibility that the Ma

for today. by the absence of their
youthful leader. In reaching the mid
way safely in round 6 of Thursday S
engagement, Stan Harris crashed into
the base by Haney's wide throw, and
hurt his right knee. Little attention
was paid to this injury at the time
but during the night it became SC
painful that Harris was forced to
forego the trip to Battle Creek yester-

This selfscme choice of alien curry

Judge should resume his duties at the

that Joe today would end the neriod
of idleness inflicted by the mishap
at Cleveland last Saturday If a right
