ROLE
FAILS AS REDS
DEFEAT GIANTS
EMPIRES Squabble Results in
Robins-Cub Game; Pills
Ram Pirates

The Cincinnati bubble may burst
but the suspicion in New York is
that any such bursting probably
will occur right in the faces Of the
Giants-if, indeed, it has not al
ready occurred.
The Cincinnati host was in Phil
adelphia today with three Giant
scalps to show for four engage
ments at +he Pcso grounds. The
Rhinelanders pulled out yesterday
game, to 3, in the tenth after per-
hitting the Giants to climb into a
tie with two runs in the eighth,
The game was pitchers battle be-
tween Jack Hendricks and John
McGraw, with Jack flashing four
against only three for John.
Jake May, who shut-out the
Giants, 8 to 0 on Sunday, failed in
an iron-man role and Carl Mays
and Ray kolp appeared briefly
while the big New York eighth was
at its height. Eppa Rixey Quoted
the disturbance and remained to win
when the Reds prodded Dutch
Henry for two runs i'll the tenth.
At Boston Rogers Hornsby drew
into tn home run leadership Of the
National Lea Tie by clubbing his
thirteenth. and raised his personal
batting figure to AIS. but the Car
dinals ran away with the ball game.
II to s. The back bay home run
epidemic continued unchecked, with
Chick Hafey, Jim Bottomley, Frank
Frisch and Taylor Douthit Of the
Cardinals joining Hornsby in a
nee. Hafey went so far as to hit
two. but each of the others was
satisfied with one.
Freak Play Results
Charley Rigler probably escaped
a reversal by tho league head when
Brooklyn won from the Cubs at
Ebbets Field, Z to 2. With the
Robins leading. 5 to /, in the fifth,
Bressler wa on first with one out.
Del Bissonette raised a foul which
Hartnett iuggled three times and
then caught, and Bressler. acting
within his rights, tagged up and
raced for second the moment the
ball first touched the catcher's
glove.
Umpire Hart at first base ruled
Bressler out when Hartnett threw
to Grimm. but Umpire Jordan at
third caused Hart to reverse the
ruling. Rigler. the umpire-in-chief,
then changed the decision back
again. and Bressler was officially
but incorrectly out.
The Phillies ended the squirt of
the Pirates by ralls1ns against Bur-
leigh Grimes in the ninth for three
runs which won. to 3. Art jain,
recent giant, broke up the game
with double.
Game Goes Homeless
The American League situation
remained much the same. The
Yankees outlasted the White Sox to
win, s to 6, in game noteble for
the absence Of home runs. Waite
Hoyt went the route and worked
hard for his eighth victory Of the
season. Ted Lyons survived a saw.

DEMPSEY QUITS
RING, BUSINESS

Los Angeles, June 14.--fP,-Jack
Dempsey, who recently retired from
the ring, also has gone out Of the
hotel business. Dempsey yesterday
sold the Barbara hotel here for
reported consideration of $65O,O0O.
This is approximately 100000 more
than he paid for it in 1924. Demp-
sey recently arranged to take over
two or three fruit ranches in Cali
fornia.
BY coincidence. Jess Willard,
from whom Dempsey took the title
several years ago, also vas big
profit taker in real estate deals an
nounced yesterday. Willard sold a
corner lot to a Detroit syndicate for
100000. The property cost him
SAG 500 six years ago. He sold a
corner for $4,000 that he paid
$4,000 for in 1924.

SOLDIERS WILL
SEND STRENGTH
AGAINST GRAYS
Fort Lincoln Has Great Mum.
Der of Athletes from Which
to Make Good Club

With a great field Of athletes
from which to choose, Fort Lincoln
should have a powerful baseball
nine to pit against Neil Churchill's
Grays Friday at $50 p. m. at the
city ball park.
Having improved greatly since
the season began, the Fort Lincoln
crew nosed out the Robinson Drill
ers in ten innings a few days ago.
Hammer, slugging gardener, hit
three times in five trips. Jones and
Holcomb each hit safely twice, while
Desippic, Lietz, Harrington, and
McQuain singled.
Coter, army pitcher, allowed the
Robinson gang only nine hits in ten
innings, holding his opponents down
in the tenth.
Churchill will use practically the
same Bismarck team that played
Jamestown Sunday, with either
Love or Jack Gesellchen in the box.
johnson will be left at shortstop
with Johnny Sagehorn at second.
The Turtle Lake shortstop erred
twice in Sundays game, but Chur-
chill has confidence in him. Orwell
will be in right field, with Simonson
in the left garden. Lenaburg will
catch, Mcleod, who split a finger
catching in the Affiliations game
will probably be out of uniform,
giving his finger a good chance to
heal. Boardman will be saved for
the Fargo game.
The Bismarck club leaves for Far
go Saturday. They will meet the
Fargo oorhead Twins Sunday.
The next home game after the Fort
Lincoln will be with Lee Dillage's
Cuban Pirates June 20.

SCHOOL RAIDED

Thieves entered the grade school
building at Richland Tuesday eve
ming, and took anything Of value
they could find, including several
small sums of money. In addition
to stealing, they proceeded in a
systematic manner to destroy pro-
perty. They pried open lockers and
cupboards, and tore up and scat
tered much school literature. Prac-
tically every room was entered,
and some damage done. The fifth
and eighth grade rooms suffered
most.
At present no clue has been
found to identify the perpetrators
of the crime. Some tramps were
observed last evening some dis
lance out in the country. Quite a
number Of people were out Of town
attending a dance at the grange
hall -and more were attending the
tabernacle meeting in Kennewick,
so it is presumed the thieves took
advantage of the opportunity. The
town officials, too, were taken by
surprise as it is over two years
since there was anything stolen
here.

TRAFFIC DELAY
is COSTLY TO
CITIES OF U. S.
New York Pays ST, 900, 900
Daily in Tribute to
Problem.
Be- Times Special


NEW YORK, Nov. GA. B.
Barber of the National Conference
on street and hihgway safety, today
announced data that gives an init
nation as to the vast losses suS-
tanned by the public through traffic
delays.
He finds, for example, that in
downtown Boston, delays in traffic
cost the community $24,500,000 a
year in addition to losses from acct
dents which approximate 100000
year. Chicago's loss is approx
mately $220,000,000 a year and New
York's tribute to the traffic problem
is more than $350,000,000 a year
or approximately $1,O00,O00 day.
Barber concludes that $4,000, 0000,-
900 a year is a conservative estimate
of the nations bill for traffic delays.
This figure does not, of course, in
clude losses from accidents which
must run high into the millions of
dollars.
There is, however, another side to
the picture, for, as Barber points
out, "San Francisco found that its
new traffic code resulted in reduc-
tons of accidents ranging from
thirty to forty per cent in the rec
ords of companies operating so, 100
and 400 motor vehicles. One street
railway company reported a reduc-
ton of "a per cent in pedestrian
accidents. A saving of 100000
year in the cost Of automobile &C
