CHICAGO. Sept. 23.-Dempsey
admittedly got a frightful break as
the boys call it, when he scored
legitimate knockout, Thursday
night, as knockouts are measured in
clock ticks, yet was a loser in the
end.
1t was reminiscent Of the first
round at Toledo against Jess Will
lard, when Dempsey won the cham
pionship. He had Willard on the
floor, the referee was Ollie Pecord.
Willard toppled on one side Of the
ring and Pecord at the time was on
the other.
Instead Of counting when Willard
fell, Pecord waited until he hao
crossed the ring where the stricken
fighter lay before going into the
mathematics. Three or four seconds
were lost and Dempsey was deprived

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Lou
Gehrig smashed one Of Babe Ruth's
marks Thursday. He established a
new record for runs driven in when
he tripled in the first inning against
the Tigers, scoring Combs.
He later added another run to his
credit when he singled in the third,
scoring Koenig. 1t was the 172nd
run credited to Gehrig this season.
The best previous mark was ITO, set
by Ruth in 1921.

THE BREAKS OF THE GAME
of q legitimate flrst-round knock
o,,f

of q legitimate first-round knock
out.
But, the breaks have not always
gone against Dempsey. He had
chem with him in the Firpo fight,
when, contrary to the New York
rules, he stood directly over the
Wild Bull, following a knockdown,
instead of going to a neutral cor
ner, and socked him the moment
his hands and knees were off the
canvas.
And as much as admire Demp-
sey as a fighter and like him as a
man, feel he got most Of the
breaks in the Jack Sbarkey fight
two months ago when the referee,
lacking either keen eyesight or cour-
age, or both, failed to curb his low
hitting.
A year ago at Phile Ielphiar the
fourth round was the big round of
the fight. This was the round in
which Dempsey had Tunney on the
ropes poised for a Knockout punch,
but was too sluggish mentally and
physically to run in for the kill.
For a while 1t looked as ~ the
fourth round Thursday night would
be the devil" round, and w'-', Tun-
ney doing the deviling. In this
round the champion had Dempsey
dizzy from persistent one-two at
tack to the head. Dempsey appeared
in greater distress than Tunney was
last September. The bell saved
Dempsey from lot Of embarrass-
ment.
This was one break that went
against Tunney. The round was
nearly over when he unleashed his
offensive, or rather when his often
sive began to take effect.
Had it developed earlier In the
round Dempsey might have had
trouble keeping on his feet. Tunney
seemed uncommonly sure of himself
in this f1are-up and was exhibiting
savagery not wholly like him.
1t is reasonable to presume that If
he had gotten to Dempsey in the
first few seconds of the round in
stead Of the closing seconds he might
have flattened him.
But to Offset this one unfavorable
break Tunney got two that were ex-
tremely helpful. One was Dempsey'S
failure to go to a neutral corner
following the knockdown. The
other, and equally important, was
the fact he was knocked down close
to the ropes.
Had the knock down occurred In
mid-ring doubt that the champion
would have been able to regcin his
feet within twenty seconds. Being
close to the rOpes he was able To

Thursday Twin Bill at Pitts
burgh Is Split.

The world champion st. Louis
Cardinals appeared today to be a
real menace to the pennant aspira-
tons of the Pittsburgh Pirates as
result of Thursdays National
League games.
st. Louis displaced New York as
runner-up to Pittsburgh, three
games behind the leaders, by de-
feating the second division Boston
Braves, SIS, while the Pirates and
the Giants were splitting double
header at Pittsburgh
Ray Kremer hurled the Pirates
to an impressive 5 to 2 victory over
the Giants in the first game. Fitz-
simmons did the, same thing for the
Giants in the second, defeating
Pittsburgh, I'll.
The Giants Pirates double-heade
was featured by Rogers Hornsby's
twenty-fifth and twenty-sixth hon.
ers of the season, one in each game.
The Cardinals dropped the Braves
Thursday by two-run ninth inning
rally. Haines and Sherdel held the
Braves to seven hits.
Hack Wilson's homer contributed
to the Cubs to 4 victory over the
Phillies.
The Cincinnati Reds took twl
games from the Brooklyn Robins,
2-1 and 4-3. The first game went
twelve innings and was a pitchers
duel between Petty and Luque. The
latter held the Robins to five hits.
The Yankees tied the high game
record for a single season by win
ming their 105th game. They de-
feated Detroit, 81. Babe F.uths
fifty-sixth home run of the year,
bringing him within three Of his

men you can take it from me, he
needed a ladder.
1t is a pleasure to report, for once,
that there was nothing unsavory
about the fight in any respect. From
the standpoint of imputed "sordid-
ness" the victory of Tunney was a
tonic to the game.
Dempsey is the greatest box Office
magnet in the history Of boxing. On
four different occasions he has lured
more than a million dollars through
the turnstiles. He was the card, not
Tunney, Thursday night. when the
gate broke all records. Had he won
and had the circumstances been
even slightly off color the game
would have suffered a terrific body
blow.
There were many rumors in adj
vance ne was to win; that he was
being managed by Tex Rickard;
that he was too valuable a card to
pass into the discard; that it was
all arranged for him to come back
as champion and defend the title
a year later against Tunney in Lon
don.
Luckily the conduct of the hght
proved all these rumors baseless,
Here was no edge for Dempsey at
any turn. On the contrary, the
edge, If any, was all against him.

WILKINS PARTY BY

MAYOR L. v. RAY WELCOMES
CAPTAIN WILKINS AND PARTY
TO SEWARD; WISHES THEM
SUCCESS

"The success of our efforts in the
Arctic last summer was due entirely
to Carl B. Eielson," stated Capt.
George H. Wilkins, courageous lead
er of the Wilkins Detroit Polar Elk
ploration party, at the public ban
quet rendered in their honor Satur-
day by the Seward Chamber of Com
MERGE at the Seward Grill. And in
placing all credit to the chief pilot,
the public readily can understand the
calibre of the man who seeks to
wrest scientific knowledge from the
dismal Arctic waists for the benefit
of his fellowman.
1.-THE pilots will be the men who
do the job" Captain Wilkins con-
tinued, "for upon them lies all the
responsibility of carrying on our
work. Without them we fail. This
is not dach for the Pole, as many
people believe, but that of exploring
the unknown Arctic areas north of
Point Barrow. At no time do we
expect to be within 500 miles of the
Pole. I believe our work is clearly
understood by the majority of Alask-
ans but the further away from AL
aska we go the less understanding
of our work is apparent. We hope
to discover land, perhaps wet land;
not necessarily land emerging from

ship between the Arctic and the
Equatorial regions and with respect
to this relationship was approached
in New York City to split my party
in two, one to work in the Caribbean
Sea area and the other in the Arctic.
these expeditions are not for the
purpose of getting ones name head
lined in the newspapers, nor is it
one in search of spectacular glory,
but purely one of scientific import
ance. In having Mr. A. NJ. Smith,
the Detroit News correspondent with
us this year, l feel that authentic
publicity will be supplied as to our
activities. l dare say the majority
of Alaskans have gone thru greater
hardships than we have been given
credit for. They weathered their
enhtanwes jlhavgeo DOT neiyaodca
hardships successfully and if we
have any we trust we, may surmount
them. The loss of life among Arc
tic. explorers has not been great but
in reality quite small for statistics

returned alive" .ff
Captain Wilkins spoke at length on
other phases of the proposed work
which will be published in a later
issue of the Gateway.
Leon Urbach, president of the To-
cal Chamber, who presided over the
banquet following a few appropriate
remarks called upon Mayor L. v.
Ray to make the first address. His
Honor responded in his usual inter-
esting and engaging manner con-
filming his remarks primarily to pre-
sent day Alaskan conditions and in
closing extending a cordial welcome
to Captain Wilkins and his party and
paying high compliments to the
physical and moral courage of Capt.
Wilkins.
A. NJ. Smith, special feature writer
on the Detroit News and correspond
ent for the Wilkins-Detroit expedi-
ton, addressed the gathering for
few minutes as also did chief pilot
Eielson afterwhich Mr.. Urbach ask
ed various members of the party to
arise in order those present might
know them that evening at the
dance. r. H. Merrill, former Seward
aviator, was also asked to arise and
again reveal his clean cut features to
his former friends.
Upon the suggestion made by
President Urbach all members of
he expedition, including aviator
Merrill, were unanimously made
honorary members of the Seward
Chamber of Commerce.

TO CHILD HELPS
IDEA ADOPTED GENERALLY
DR.. COGSWELL NAMES
MONT. CHAIRMAN

At the request of the American
Child Health association, DR.. w. F..
Cogswell. secretary of the State
Board of Health, has appointed
DR.. Hazel Dell Bonness May Day
chairman for Montana. Mrs. Sara
Morse, secretary of the Montana
tuberculosis association, is named
as assistant chairman.
May Day, according to DR.. Cogs-
well, is celebrated each year un-
der the auspices of the American
Child Health association whose
president is Herbert Hoover. The
adoption of the idea of May Day
for child health has become gen
eral in the last five years. Last
year emphasis was laid upon the
perfect child with special reference
to his physical and mental we'll
being. This year emphasis will al
so be on the spiritual development
of the child, and the message of
May Day will be spread through
the channels of the churches of
the country.
1.-The Montana State Board of
Health heartily endorses the idea
of May Day and all that it implies
for the health and welfare of u
children" DIR. Cogswell said.
