McGRAW'S SWAP
EXCITES QUERY
Gives 100000 Worth of
> Players for Ring.

John McGraw's recent swap, In
which he gave more than 100000
worth of bell players for one pitcher,
brings up the question-hOw much is
a pennant worth to a club owneri
In trading Jack Bentley, who cost
the club 100000, and Weyland Dean,
who was purchased for $4,000, to the
Philadelphia club for Jimmy Ring, a
thirty year-old veteran, the Giant lead
er obviously thought that the deal
would help him win the championship.
The only financial return the Giants
will get from Ring will be derived
from the profits Of worlds series. as
Ring 10 only pitcher as far as the
hans are concerned, and he will not
be any drawing card at the gate.
II McGraw is willing to dispose Of
100000 worth Of material to gamble
on the chance Of getting into the
worlds series there must be more
profit in the post-season games than
the magnates have wanted the public
to believe.
In recent years, since the players
forced themselves into q more gen.
erous share Of the receipts, the mag
mates have complained that their share
consisted mostly Of glory, hard work
and abuse from those disappointed
fans who couldn't get ringside seats.

SPORT NEWS

There are many who will view with
much qualification the fading chances
of a ring meeting between Jack
Dempsey and the negro heavyweight
Wills.
While it is question whether the
New York State Boxing Commission
has any legal right to ban contests in
that state, still all promoters are de-
sirous of staging them subject to the
approval of the Athletic Board. This
has, until recently, taken the stand
that Dempsey must meet Wills before
taking on any one else. But, of late,
division has appeared among those
constituting the arbiters of boxing in
the big state, and it now looks as il
Dempsey and Tunney will be allowed
to settle the question Of supremacy
ond that Wills be relcgated to the
rear.
There may be more than one reason
for this. 1t may be that sportdom is
not DESTROYS of seeing the return of a
situation similar to that produced by
the Jack johnson regime. Dempsey
has not fought for four years. That
length of time may have made it i'm
possible for him to recover his one
time form, and he may not be able to
take the measure of the burly negro.
This would bring back the former
anxious quest for white hope, and
the strenuous efforts to dethrone the
colored champion. No one wants to
see that time come again.
Some of the sports writer's are also
of the opinion that Wills has done
nothing to merit his stand as chal-
lenger for the champion. Pro-
moters are not in the business for
their health. When pugilists are
matched, it is generally looked to that
they will give the fight patrons a run
for their money. If the set-to prom
Uses walkover for either contestant,

DE PALMA HAS TWO

Little Italian-American Has
Had Many Accidents.

Ralph DePalma, without question
the most popular idol that ever drew
a pair of racing goggles, has entered
two cars in the fourteenth Annual In
ternational Sweepstakes May 81 at the
Indianapolis motor speedway. Start
ing his racing career in 1907, DePalma
has lived through a series of accidents
In his 10 years of racing that
would have stopped less courageous
driver. But broken bones have meant
nothing to tile little Italian-American.
OF the thirteen international sweep
stakes run at the greatest race course
In the world, Ralph has taken part In
ten. He started out In the 1911 race
by finishing fourth. In 1912 came the
greatest point In his career when. af-
ter putting his car to the front and
leading the second man by 20 miles.
he saw Glory slip through his fingers
on T. dst lap Of the race. ,DePalma's
motoY died at the head of the front
stretch on his last lap and he pushed
his car to the tape, only to be totally
disqualified because it had not crossed
under it's own power. In 1915 Ralph
showed the field the way home. He
finished sixth in 1919; and fifth in
1920. He came up( to fourth place in
1922. The year 1928 he drove his car
SO laps. In 1925 he finished in sew
enth place.
While DePalma has entered two
cars, he has not named them. He Is
working on them in his Los Angeles
workshop. DePalma will no doubt be
one of the early birds nj the track for

But Jesus was a son of His time.
He did not know as much geology

The people of the first century mar

has shifted. The twentieth century
schoolboy is taught to marvel at the

sun and stars is a greater marvel than
any deed of wonder ever recorded.
The reactions of element to element

A religion which depends upon
miracles for proof is doomed. We do

But Christianity, the religion Of
Jesus, is not dependent for its life

contribution of Jesus himself
Jesus knew God. He lived in the
