In the game next Tuesday the boys
will range from IL to IA. Manager
Glenn Penny believes he has one of
the best kid teams in the state of
Arizona They have in Vickers and
Silyas two very good kid" pitchers.
Silvas will probably be used next Tues
day as Vickers can also play third
base, a position seemingly all his own
as long as he wants it, The outfield
is rather unsettled as yet. For hit
ting outfielders are hard to find and
are in demand. The boys that deliver
with the willow are going to get the
jobs in the outer gardens.
The Junior Blues tentative lineup
for next Tuesday will be as follows:
Verdugo, C; Bob Silvas, p; Shrop-
shire, 1b; Jordon, 2b; Jacks, SIS; Wick
ers, 3b, with Schlotzhauer, L. Best, D.
Best Best, Blackburn, Miranda, Adam
son, Palmer and Rameriz fighting it
out for outfiedl positions.
Possibly the latter part of next week
the under 16 team will be able to come
to Douglas from Bisbee to play at 5
o'clocw It is hoped more boys meet
ing with this age requirement will re-
port for this game. No game will be
scheduled until it is certain such a
team exists in Douglas ready to play.

DOUGLAS BLUES
JUNIORS L o S F
T O BISBEEITES

In what proved to be a fast and
very hotly contested game the Inter
mediate stars of the playground lost
to the Bisbee select team Two games
were scheduled with the Bisbee bows,
one for boys under Is and one for boys
under II. Due to the fact that most
of the boys under II were working, the
boys under Is were run in to give a
game for the bigger team from Bis
bee. In order to make the game as
good as possible, Bob Silvas, star pitch
er for the boys under Is was held to
pitch for the bigger boys.
Vickers also a good pitcher for the
Junior Blues, filled the gap left by
Silvas, and did nice job of it. But
for couple of very costly errors the
game could have been easily reversed.
VickerS allowed only one clean hit
during the game and truly deserved
to win, while BySenta, of Bisbee. al
lowed five hits. Both pitchers walked
two. Errors were somewhat more fire.
quent on the Bisbee team but the
errors that were made by the Douglas
boys were more costly.
The second game proved to be rather
one-sided as the little fellows of the
Douglas team were outclassed in size
and age. It contained plenty of thrills
and excitement at times, however.
SilyaS, though pitching out of his class.
held the bigger Bisbee boys to ten
hits, while his teammates were get
ting six from the opposing pitcher.
Some real sportSmanShip is being
demonstrated by these bows on both
sides. Another game for the boys un-
der Is will be played here next Tues
day morning at 10 o'clock. With Sill
vas pitching and VickerS back at third
the game should be even better than
yesterdays game.
The box scores for the games follow.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 10 (R-Out-
standing entries in the national anna

success IN practice rounds today.
Bobby Jones of Atlanta, whose name
is coupled with superlatives, where
golf is concerned, came out of his
self-styled slump for time and then
las he sees it-tumbled back again.
George Won Elm, the defending
champion, did not measure up to the
marks he set in practice rounds last
week and professed pessinism over his
prospects of retaining the title.
On the par 35 out nine, Jones dis
played a 33 and later "a, but the
single 18 hole performance started with
the 34 and he took 80 coming home
for 73, one over par.
Won Elm was two over part for the
10, but he did not show the steady
golf that characterized his workouts
a week ago. He returned only today
from Detroit.
James G. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo-,
matched Jones best figure-the out
going 33-which were the two best
totals for the first nine. Many players
confined themselves to nine holes as

shoot nearly SO well in eliminating
two and one Mrs. Elaine RosenthaI
Reinhardt, of Dallas, who lives most
of the time in Chicago and has won

Except for stymies at the ninth
and tenth greens, Mrs. Pressler would
have had 70, equal to the course

Former Light Heavyweight
Champ Batters Opponent
So Badly That Referee
Stops Bout After Two Min
utes and 33 Seconds Of
First Round

New York, June 28.--(P--Having
scored a sensational one round knock
out over Charles Rammel, Austrian
heavyweight, Paul Rerlenbach today
was out to prove to the pugilistic
world that some of his best fighting
days are still ahead
1t took the dynamite fists of the
former light heavyweight champion
just two minutes and 33 seconds Of
fighting in the first battle of his
come back campaign last night to
batter his opponent so badly the ref
cree stopped the bout and awarded
Berlenbach Il technical "kayo." The
fight was scheduled for 10 rounds.
While Rammel has no impressive
ring record he outweighed Berlen-
bach by - pounds and to knock him
out Berlenbach needed atsleast some
thing like the power of punch which
carried him to Il title little more
than two years ago.
In his attempted comeback Ber-
lenbach has youth in his favor. His
age is 26. He weighed in for his
fight last night at l70la pounds, well
within the light heavyweight limit.
