The series opened Friday and the
Colonies won, to 2, in red hot
contest. Henry and Cullop, two
capable southpaws. battled through
nine innings of thrills and the
Louisville twirler barely nosed
through to victory. Henry allowed
six hits and Cullop seven, but three
of the visitors blows were for extra
bases.
Schneider Scores In Third
The Indians were first to score,
getting a marker in the third inning
when Schneider started with a single
and registered later on singles by
Henry and Allen.
Louisville knotted the score in the
fifth when Henry tossed a wild one
off Guyon's shoulder and the red
skin outfielder advanced on an out
and crossed the plate on Tysons
safety to center. The Bushmen
came right back and took the lead
in their half of the fifth. Voter was
safe on Cotter's muff of Ballenger's
throw. Allen beat out bunt.
Clarke popped to Bethel and Voter
stole third. Rehg scored Voter with
a sacrifice fly.
In the eighth the Colonies again
tied the game when Guyon tripled
and scored on Tyson's sacrifice fly.
Better Scores Settler"
In the ninth Bethel doubled after
one out and scored on Meyers single,
and this run proved the winner.
Shortstop Shannon prevented the
Indians evening the count in the
ninth, when he made a brilliant
play on Krueger's ripping grounder
near second base. Rehg had opened
the inning with a single and moved
up on Hodapp's sacrifice. Kruger
swung nightly and caught the ball
with a terrific wallop. Shannon
sprinted, thrust out his gloved hand
and the ball hoped into the leather.
Shannon's threw to first and re-
tired Ernie. Rehg went to third on

Manual II. S. Nine
City Champs

Manual High School baseball out
fit ended the season Friday after
noon by defeating Tech 8 to 8. at
Garfield Park and in SO doing,
reached the goal that the Southsiders
have had their eyes glued on all
year. the winning of the city series.
An agreement was reached be-
tween the two teams before the game
whereby the winner of the contest
would be considered the city cham
pion. AS Tech defeated Manual in
their first clash, 1t has been
thought all along that third game
would be staged If the Southsiders
won the second battle. The Green
and White did not meet Shortridge
this season and Manual walloped
the Northsiders twice.
Cassidy pitched a fine game for
Manual in beating Shorty Jordan,
Techs star hurler. Seven Green
and White batsmen struck vainly at
the offerings Of the star Red mounds
man who did not walk a man.
Only one run, and that unearned,
was scored off of him until the ninth,
when Tech threatened with two
markers. Jordan whitfield eight Man
ual sluggers. The Red and White
nine supported their pithcer in real
fashion, two overthrows being the
only errors. Tech fielding was rag
ged.
Manual cinched the game in the
fifth inning with three runs. Man
ual cracked out six hits during the
nine innings and Tech five.

While Tex Richard lost his spell
over the weather man when he had
to postpone the fight Friday on &C
count Of rain, 1t probably was a
good break for the milk fund. under
the auspices of which Richard is
staging the fights. The weather
was miserable Friday and the sale
of general admission tickets would
not have been as large as it will be
tonight.
Even I'm Weight
The New York boxing commission,
after granting sanction to the post
ponement, ruled that the boxers
would not have to weigh in again to-
day. McTigue and Berlenbach each
weighed 170h pounds when they
stepped on the scales Friday after
noon. They probably will weigh
around 175 when they enter the ring
tonight.
Betting still shows an even choice
in opinion. Berlenbach's hackers feel
fortunate that they are able to get
some even money.
On the Air
BY special permission Of the
milk fund committee, the blow by
blow report of the three feature
contests will be broadcast from
station WNYC. q
The first bout is scheduled to be
started at 8 o'clock, and in ac.
cordance with the New York rules,
the main bout can not go on later
than 10 o'clock Eastern daylight
time. If the prehminaries do not
go the limit McTigue and Berlen-
bach will be called before 10 o'clock.
Richard said the advance ticket
sale promised a crowd of $4,000 and
receipts Of more than 100000.

N. Y. Fans Becomes Bored
at Consistent Victory
Habit of Giants.

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, May So.-Ten years
ago Connie Mack had to wreck a
perfect ball club because 1t was too
good. The winning habit had be-
come affixed so firmly to the Phila-
delphia Athletics that the fans would
no longer pay to see them run away
with the opposition.
The New York Giants may have
the same experience, as the Metro
politan customers are showing signs
of getting bored with too much win
ming baseball. The early spring
weather was bad enough to hurt the
attendance, but the fans that did go
out to the park were anything but
enthusiastic about the team.
Root for Visitors
New York fans, of course, haven't
the partisan followers that the Reds
have in Cincinnati or the st. Louis
teams at home, but the New York
fans never have been as generous in
their treatment of visiting clubs as
they have this year. The Giants are
so much lacking in personality that
they Go not inspire any one to rabid
roofing Old Hank Gowdy is the
only colorful player on the team.
The joke that the Giants were
making out of the National League
penna.nt race in the early part of
the season will not only hurt the
business in New York, but 1t will
have a bad effect on all the other
cities in the league.
They're TOO Good
The Giants look so good, most
everyone thinks the race will be
over on the fourth Of July and a
battle for second place Is not enough
to sustain interest If the American
League is engaging in a free-for-all
fight for the pennant.
The Giants were good enough to
win four remnants in tight races
that retained interest until the last
game Of the season, but the team
this year Is better than 1t has been
in five years, because the pitchers
have been working so much better.
1t is a young ball club and 1t looks
like it is not only cinch for the
pennant this year, but is good for
several more.

FRANKLIN FIELD, PHILADEL-
PHIA. May 30.-The West had a
shade the edge in the forty-ninth
annual intercollegiate track and
field championships Memorial day
morning, but with beaming spring
skies rapidly drying the soggy track
at Franklin Field. the lithe-muscled
athletes of the East had more than
an even chance to regain and retain
the title before the last tape was
broken in the finals this afternoon.
Yale a FavOrite
Fair weather following Fridays

a slight favorite. The dryer the
track the more chance there was of
the Eli sprint and distance men run
ming to form and overcoming the
lead which the two California aggre-
cations. unhampered by weather con-
ditions. piled up in the weight
events.
The University of Southern Cali
fornia presented a better balanced
team than usual and qualified four
teen men for the finals. Bud Houser.
the stocky u. S. c. weight man.

nine points.
Long Discus Toss
Marks made IN the preliminary
trials stand II they are not ex-
ceeded in the finals and Houser set

the previous mark.
Ralph Hills of Princeton was the
only other athlete to set new in
tercollegiate mark in the trials. his
effort in the shot-put measuring 40

The first five places counted in the
scoring this afternoon-5. 4. 3. 2. and
land this system was against the
triumph OF any college through the
individual supremacy of one or two
athletes.

The national Industrial conference
board, an open shop employer organ
ization, determined the minimum cost
of living for a textile workers family
at this time to be $1,SS6 and, on
slightly more liberal standard, S1,65S.
The food item alone in the minimum
textile budget was 1901.
Expenditures for food by the south
ern farm families averaged as low
as 1884 for colored troopers compared
with $500 for white troopers. AS these
expenditures include not only pur-
chased food but the market value OF
all food produced on the farm for
home consumption it is apparent that
the colored families are dangerously
restricted in the important item OF
diet. At that they were spending more
than half their entire budget for food.
The bureaus figures show the con-
trast between the living standards
of actual families. But they imply an
issue which labor cannot dodge-the
inevitable sapping of higher living
standards of the worker by the lower.
