HSuan Tuns Would Let World

Picking, Jan. 9,--Ilsuan Tung, the "Boy Emperor" of China, has no desire 10 re-cnter tho Forbidden City from which he recently was re- moved and he now considers his former home a 'cage" which would Restrict his desired activities.
 He said recently he would not avail himself of the withdrawal by Tdaq Chi-iui and Marshal Chang Tso-)n of the restrictions imposed apon him hy General Feng Yu- hsiang whereby he was forced to leave the palace.
 The hoy emperor declared he had no desire to 're-enter the cage" of the Imperial City because he dis liked the imperial system which it would be necessary 10 maintain there. Instead he locked forward with keen delight to q future life of freedom. He proposed, he added, to visit his ancestors tombs in Man ehurip as soon as possible, after which he hoped to see something of the world.
 Hsuan Tung, referring 10 the four imperial libraries, made known that he recently had proposed the publi- cation throughout the world of the "Goden Treasuries of Chinese Liter aturc' not as a commercial venture but as an interesting revelation of secret history and as q true picture of Oriental civilization through the Ages. Former President Tsao Kun, however, had raised objections to this proposal. The libraries include dynastic and popular histories, clas- sics, and other works of rare skill.

Major General Ely, commander Of

to rival the famous annual New

Assistant Attorney General Will

holding Of purely amateur bouts
was not intended to be restricted

arrangements are being made to go
ahead with the tournament as
originally planned.
Entries for this set OF boxing
bouts will be received up until to-

He struck out Slim Harriss,
whose batting average and weight
are denoted in about the same
figures, and realized an ambition
born only a few moments before.
That was when the fan with the
voluminous voice made the follow
ing heard above the din Of maniacal
Quaker City bugs:
"strike him out! Yeah, try and
do itr'
There was sarcasm aplenty in the
voice Of that fan. The bleacherite
without doubt had in mind, and
Walter got him Alright, the bingle
Slim Harriss made that scored the
first run AGAINST the Big Train in
his first appearance of the year,
when he was beaten by the Macks,
8 to O, incidentally he hasn't been
marked with a defeat since.
The fans challenge put little
devil to work I'm the brain OF
Walter johnson, VINO told the
story himself today. He resolved
TO strike out Harriss.
He went to work on him with q
vengeance. He threw Harriss all
the stuff his strong right arm
could muster.
And Harriss famed.
But
Walter worked up copious sweat
that did him harm. While the
Griffmen were putting over long
rally in the next inning that scored
seven runs, the old master cooled
off and his arm stiffened.
1t is a fact, acknowledged by Wal.
ter, that 1t is extremely difficult
for him to come back after cooling
off. That his stuff leaves him
suddenly.
He walked Dykes and wild-pitched
him to second. Lamar and Sim

singled and Poole walked and when
Bagwell, hitting for Galloway, sin
gled, Bucky Harris told Walter that
his bath was waiting.

GR|FFS AIM
TO PASS
MACKS
0oubIe-header Today Provides
Opportunity for Champs to
Overcome Leaders
BY R. D. THOMAS.

: PHILADELPHIA, May 28.-
BY winning both games of today's
doubleheader with the leading
Philadelphia Mackmen, the world
champion Griffs would flash by
their rivals and have q margin
Of one full contest.
It keeps recurring to one that
Clark Griffith said about month
ago "The Athletics look like q
great team when they're winning.
But when things start going bad
ly they can kick a ball around
and mess up q game worse than
any big league team | ever saw:
They play good ball in streaks. :.
Right now the cool-minded Phila-
delphia fan is not so cocksure OF
the pennant calibre of the club
that recently was knocking things
loose in the West and rolling up
q lead over the Griffmen.
Happenings of the last several
DAYS have revived memories of
other periods Of Mackian success
that ended rather abruptly. Clark
Griffith had them in mind when
he refused. to become excited over
the steaming start made by Nc
GiIlicuddy's men in sthe pennant
race now well under way.
II seems that the reliability OF
Connie Mack's pitching staff is not
what 1t was. Today's doubleheader
is faced by the Mackmen with only
one thoroughly tried pitcher fresh
TOR duty. Lefty Baumgartner is
slated to pitch one game. He is
considered quite dependable. Rube
Walberg, also q southpaw, is q
leading prospect for the other. Wal
berg has yet to prove he is a first
class major league pitcher. He gave
the Athletics cause for hope the
other day by beating st. Louis in
q duel with Joe Bush. 1t was a
decently pitched game, according
to accounts.
How much Sam Gray meant to
the Mackmen was not fully realized
until this doubIeheader became a
problem. He would have been the
solution to Mr.. McGillicuddy's diff
ficulty. As the matter stands. the
gravest fear Of Connie Mack has
been realized. His ace is out Tor
q matter Of weeks with q broken
finger.

"The youngsters OF fifteen and
sixteen even feel that they ought
to gather a dollar or two apiece
for their Sunday afternoons eff
fort. And as long IS they do
that they are not amateurs in the
strictest meaning Of the term.
"Amateur baseball is not what
it was. can see that from the
fewer notices received in the
sports editors mail. It used to be
quite a battle to get them all in
the paper; but the amateur news
doesn't worry Us now like it did
then.
. Amateur baseball in Baltimore
seems to have suffered quite q
slump from 1924 to 1925. But
amateur baseball has slumped
everywhere, though probably not
to such q noticeable extent. The
condition is worrying national or
ganizations back Of amateur ath-
letics and baseball. A determined
effort has been made this spring
to make up some of the lost
ground by an intensive campaign
in the smaller cities and towns to
restore baseball to it's old status.
Some success is reported, though
it is going to be q hard fight.
"When was q kid there wasn't
much else on boys minds from

highlander, that pennant wouldn't
look q bit tough" said he not
long ago. And barely had the
Athletics chief made known his
thought. when, instead Of gaining
a needed pitching STAR, he lost
one. Moreover, Ed ROmmel, an
other dependable, is complaining
of an ugly feeling in his arm.
For two successive days the
Griffmen have whaled the Mack
mems pitching staff, Including Slim
Harriss, who is supposed to have
had the world champions hypnotized. d.
II mesmerized they were, tn"
Gfiffmen broke the spell when Slim
attempted to whip them for the
along nicely for three innings, and
then the Griffmen made q catcher
almost unnecessary for the Macks.
Base hits whizzed by Sims lofty
dome. His very life was endangered
until Rommel relieved him in the
fifth. After the Griffs had ac-
cepted a pass and made four con
secutive hits with none down in
the fourth Harriss had been
plastered right merrily, too.
Rommel was no better than Slim.
The Griffmen continued firing away
and when the smoke. cleared they
had counted seven runs. Every
one was needed, too, for the clan
of Cornelius refused to give up
within run of tying the score.
The game was just as exciting as
the 10 to 9.result indicates. Walter
johnson was driven from the box
for the second time this season,
but Is given credit Tor the victory.
He was yanked in the fifth after
issuing two tickets to PooleViile
and two hits and giving every cvi
dence of having lost his magic.
5
Vean Gregg took his place
momentarfIy, long enough to yield
a Texas league single and hand
out q pass. The MacIks collected
three runs off johnson and Gregg
and had the bases fun with two
out when Marberry stepped In and
& stopped the monkey business.
Marberry finished the game. Dykes
hit q homer following Fox's double
N the eighth that gave the enemy
q brace OF tallies, and almost ga se
.seorge Marshall heart failure. The
Griffmen's well known FAM, by the
way today denied that he was
jinx to the team.
"I've seen 'em win fourteen times
and lose only four" he declared and
added: Joe Harris hit his first
home run just as l entered the
park
Joe Harris supplied the punch
that won the game. He reacneo
he three main extremities OF the
Shibe park with powerful drives
In the third ,he poked homer into
the upper tier Of the left field stand
with the bases empty.
With two on in the fourth ne
socked the ball over the right field
fence and IN the eighth he drove
Marberry home for the Griffmen's
final run with a streaming triple
to center.
Harris first circuit smash would
have landed in the outfield stand
OF the Griffith stadium. His second
would have struck high up on the
right field wall.
BY virtue of their last two vic
tories, the Griffmen have the dis
tinction Of heing the only club to
do better than break even with the
Athletics, who have won only two
out of six games with the cham
mons. The Griffmen look good to
better that margin today. Mo
