TituIar Contest for District
Crown at Washington
Park.

The st. Philips Boys Club and
Lady of Lourdes will meet in final
game Saturday for the Seventh Dis
trict championship of the American
Legion junior baseball tournament,
sponsored in this city by The In
dianapolis Times.
The st. Philips downed the Buc-
cancers Tuesday at Brookside park,
5 to 4, while the Little Indians
trounced the Holy Trinity nine, 10
to l.
A confusing situation arose today
when Holy Trinity protested the
Little Indians victory. Davis Eader
was alleged to be over-age and an
inspection upheld the protest and
the Little Indians charged with
forfeit to Trinity.
A further inspection by the COM
mittee revealed the fact John Blaz-
lex on the Trinity team also was
over age and the Holy Trinities also
were disqualified. The Lady of the
Lourdes team, defeated in an earlier
round, was then automatically made
the flnalist.
Saturdays titular battle will start
at 3 p. m. I'd. S. to-. At Q p. m. a
curtain raiser contest will be staged
between the Indianapolis Power and
Light and Indiana University
Coaching School mines. The curtain
raiser will feature the style of play
introduced last year of having the
batter run either to first or third.
The freak style Of play is expected
to attract lot of interest here.
Previous to the title tilt the two
boys selected by the committee will
receive the Dale Miller Sportsman
ship medals. Following the game
the winning team will be awarded
the Seventh district championship
trophy. The victors will compete in
the regional meet at Logansport

NEW YORK, July 11.--Ameri-

1928 invasion Of Amsterdam began,
There are a number Of interesting
and important young men on the
team that will do or don't for your

away nally cOntr0Ver-
sial Paddock, the remarkable Call
fornia crew, and a regiment OF
others.
But to my mind the most inter-
esting if not the most important
young man on the team this year
is none other than Joie w. Ray Of
Kankakee, Ill, veteran of two pre-.
vious Olympic jubilees.
In several respects Ray is the
most unique character track and
field has ever seen or heard. 1t
should be noted that the young
man is never seen that he isn't
heard.
I'm days gone by he was the coun-
Il try'S most consistent miller.
Year after year he would run the
most formidable Of fields right off
their ankles. He made a travesty
of the celebrated Wanamaker race
at the old Garden. He won it so
often officials used to give him the
trophy back in his dressing room
before the event was begun.
Rays came this spring but he
didn't quit. He started practicing
in the 5000 and 10,000-meter events
1t was his hope he would qualify
for the Olympic in one of these
events, or more likely both, this be-
ing more typical of his make up.
The spirit was willing, but the pup
pies revolted. Sensing failure he
gave up.
Then one day in an inspired
mood he sat down and penned a
note to Lawson Robertson the
Olympic coach. From now on /
am marathon runner" the note
read in words to that enlightening
effect. No doubt it had charac-
teristic Ray postscript, too, read
ing, "and darned good one"

A T any rate, the Kankakee f1ier,
L "A distinguished up to that time
largely for his success as a miller,
entered the testing Boston mara
thon, and though it was the first
time he -had-e attempted the dis
tance, he ran rafting good third
to Clarence DE Mar, the perennial
winner.
There were cheers for Ray at the
finish and the race officials praised
his gameness and durability. Ray
was unnnoved. On the contrary, he
was piqued. 81 didn't prepare right
for this race. These fellows should
have been easy for me. The next
time they will be-"
The next time they were. In
Guiding De Mar, looked up up to
that moment, as Americas chief
hope in the mule haul, as it is
known to the boys.

And last Saturday just to prove
he can still pick them UP and lay
them down in the middle dis
tances, he entered the 10000 me-
tiers and qualified for this event
