RIGGS IS NEAR FLAG
IN BANKERS LEAGUE

BY virtue of an impressive victory
over their ancient rivals from around
the corner, the American Security &
Trust Co., the Riggs diamond artists
have practically cinched their third
successive Bankers League title.
Benny Womersley, strike.out King
and leading twirler of the league, won
his tenth straight victory by score
OF to l. Sensational fielding and
batting of Mel Handy and the timely
hitting Of Benny Mensh and Jee Lam
bath featured the contest. Sam
Cherry and Mel Handy contributed
terrific Ruthian clouts to enliven the
issue. Shackelford and Miller starred
for the losers.
The F'lemingites have practically
the same team that has starred for
the Pennsylvania avenue institution
for the past three years. Earl Hay
cock, the dean Of the backstops in the
league, has an able assistant in Emory

Womersley needs no assistance in the
box, forming an invincible ace on the
mound. A youngster. Hurdle, Is con-
irving to fill the shoes of Jimmy
Lemon, former Princeton star, at the
initial sack and is improving with
each game. ...t
Mel Handy, one of the greatest
prospects among the younger ball
players in the District, is featuring
each game with his hard hitting and
timely fielding. Rajah Snyder, form.
er Tech star. is living up to the repu-
tation of his great namesake by his
sterling fielding feats. Sam Cherry.
the hot corner sacker. is the life OF
the infield and a dangerous man at
all times. Benny Mensh, Rialto star,
and Monk Ellis, former Appalachian
League player. are the veterans of
the outer garden and both are hitting
the ball savagely and contributing
numerous good catches.
Joe I.ambath, Oscar Bfelaski and
Emory Shanks. who is a great utility
man, being able to fill any position,
comprise the remainder of the outfield.
Earl Haycock, after managing the

w YHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
AZ n. y. July 16.-Jack
wv Dempsey has reached the
|. end of his last full week of
training for his comeback
bout with Jack Sharkey apd his con-
dition today is about what it will be
when he climbs into the ring to face
the Lithus MAN Celt next Thursday.
How good Is he?
TO the writer, who studied him
closely in action against his sparring
way:
He Is slow. He is deliberate In his
actions. His blows do not carry with
the spontaneity Of old. But he still
packs a terrible wallOp that could
spell curtains for Mr.. Sharkey If he
should happen to get in the way of II
a few times in the early rounds of ths
fight
There seems no reason why Demp-
Sey should have to settle down and
pick his spots before letting his
punches go. 1t is 30 unlike the Demp-
sey Of old. 1t is hard to blot out the
picture Of the finely conditioned
athlete. with rapid fire. fist hooking
punchtJ from every direction. But
you have to blot it out to visualize
the dempsey OIL tOudy. Inc Olu kfldCk
that was Dempsey's seems to have
gone. Still his ardent admirers-and
they are legion--insist that Dempsey
will snap out of it and shoot the works
when he goes in to face the rapier-
like left of Sharkey.
He's Better Than Last Year.
Certainly the Dempsey Of White
Sulphur Springs is better than the
Dempsey of Atlantic City who prepar-
| ed for Gene Tunney, by virtue of the
| fact that he now is contented and easy
in his mind. Yet there is a. look on
his face meaning to all who care to
dope it out that Jack is taking orders
and doing just what he Is told
Leo p. Flynn is in charge and his
word is law. Trying to make Demp-
| sey over is not F'lynn's idea at all.
