CAPE Girls NEZ. France, Aug.
24.-WIth a span Of twelve hours
the English Channel today had de-
feated five swimmers Of three
nations who aspired to conquer its
treacherous currents.
They were, in the order of their
acknowledgements of defeat: Clara
belle Barrett, New Rochelle. n. Y,
school teacher who had made one
previous attempt: Lillian Cannon,
Baltimore, Nd, girl swimmer: Otto
Kemmerich, German: LIE Driant,
Frenchman, and Ernst Vierkoetten,
German.
Miss Barrett was forced to give
up the attempt after swimming
four miles when she ran into a
school of jellyfish, and the rough
sea caused her to become seasick.
Miss Cannon had covered four
and a half miles Of stormy water
when she was taken with cramps
in the stomach.
Kemmerich ran into a large dog
fish and came off second best,
forcing him to leave the water. He
also had covered four and a half
miles.
LIE Driant gave up the attempt
at / o'clock this morning, return
ing to Boulogne, and Vierkoetten
quit at 8 o'clock, returning to
Calais.
Kemmerich struck a huge por.
poise and was bruised and so badly
frightened that he clambered aboaC
tho accompanying tug, lest he was
being attacked by shark.
Vierkoetten was several miles OF
Goodwin Sands when he gave up
due to bad weather.
Miss Cannon, pale and discouraged
reached Boulogne at $3.50 this morn
ing and Immediately went TO bed
She was still sleeping at 1890.
When Miss Cannon came ashore
she admitted that she had suffered
from a pain in her right side fol
several days and had said nothing
lest she would not be permitted
to make the attempt at the Channe
swim. She will undergo an ex
animation by doctor when she
aWakes.

Inc Kid 1nf1elder got into yes
terday's scrap. He replaced Joe
Harris at second base in the
seventh inning and later went to
third base, Bluege having given
way to Joe Judge at bat. He fell
down on his one fielding chance,
throwing wildly after picking up
Schang's bunt. However, that
didn't bother him any and, if he
plays today, it will be with plenty
Of confidence.
1t is possible that Gene Robert
son may not be in the Browns line
up today. Bluege, in scrambling
back to the bag in the fourth in
ming of yesterdays game, spiked
him. There was time out for first
aid by the st. Louis trainer, and
Robertson struggled along until the
eighth, when the wound stiffening.
he gave way to Harry Rice.
Bucky Harris is due to return
to the lineup today, Stewart re-
firing to the protection of the
bench. The manager was anxious
70 play yesterday, but Umpire Nal
lin declined to permit it, having
been ordered by the head of the
league to bar him until a fine
automatically imposed with a sus-
pension had been paid. Secretary
EynOn had sent q check for the
$25 fine Saturday, but it had not
been received In Chicago. and SO
Bucky directed his team from the
bench Before the game was con-
cluded, however, the matter had
been fixed up over the telephone.
and so Bucky will be on the job
today, Il there Is q game today.

SIGNS
FOR RUTH

Heinie Miller is a sorely per-
picked match maker today. What
with two of his scheduled fighters
at Kenilworth tonight particlpat-
ing in bouts in New York and
Baltimore last night, Miller, was
up against the proposition of find
ing substitutes for the State Ath-
letic Commission OF Maryland will
not permit either frankie Fink,
who defeated Jose Lombardo at
Dexter Parry New York, last night
or Sylvan Bass, who got technical
knockout over Joe Bernardo at Balti-
more, to compete at Kenilworth to-
night.
The rule in Maryland states that
six days shall intervene between
fights for all boxers competing
under the the State Athletic
Associations rules. Seldom Is this
waived and then only to the extent
of subtracting one day from the
number which shall intervene be-
tween engagements.
This one day of grace is given
only when a fighters route IS
curtailed by an early ending OF
the bout or in case he has very
easy time scoring his victory when
ever it may come.
Joe Kelly, secretary of the State
Athletic Association stated over the
long distance telephone at noon to-
day that neither Kink nor Bass
would be permitted to appear at
Kenilworth tonight because OF long,
hard fights engaged in by them IN
New York and Baltimore respec-
lively last night.
Meanwhile Heinie Miller has
signed Henry Usse. Jersey City's
leading featherweight to go the
twelve.round route with Babe Ruth
of Philadelphia tonight-weather
permitting. Up to press time no
substitute had been announced for
Sylvan Bass, but Miller should have
no trouble getting a suitable OPP
ponent for Charley Barber, OF R1cf-
mond before the gong for the
scheduled eight-rounder sounds.
Secretary Kelly witnessed the
Sylvan BaSs.Bernardi bout in
Baltimore last night and declared
today that Bass would be in no
condition to fight tonight were
the State Athletic Association to
permit him doing so.
| He had a bad right hand last
night, according to Kelly, and his
work then was far from up to his
standard, despite the fact that
Bernardis seconds threw in the
towel.
| The remainder of the kenilWorth
| bill, postponed from "A week ago
| tonight, will stand, according to
announcement, and Matchmaker
Miller announces that any of the
ringsiders who are not satisfied
| with Uses work against Ruth
can get their money back at the
box office. That is the fairest thing
that can be done under the cir
cumstances.
