BABY IS FOUND.
IN BASKET

The future of a 7.day-old baby
found abandoned early today in the
front yard of a vacant house at
1119 Sixth ST. n. w. depends
upon the outcome of an argu-
ment as to it's race, it was said
today at Sibley Hospital.
The baby. girl was found in
an old basket by Isadore ShuItz,
as he went to his place of business
at 1909 Seventh ST. N. w. The
infant was crying Justify SO Shultz,
after some hesitation, carried her
to the Second precinct ana turned
her over to Policeman. G. d. Poole
An examination revealed that the
baby was a healthy eight pound
girl Thinking that she might be
hungry and not knowing what
else to do with her anyway, Poole
slipped the basket on his arm and
went to Sibley Hospital.
There the baby was unwrapped
from an old blanket, rug and night
gown, with which-~she was tucked
in the basket, and found to be
otherwise unclothed. There were
no marks of Identification on the
wrapping and no particular marks
about the body. Police are, never
theless, making inquiries of the
physicians and others on
the chance that they may trace
the infants mother.
Hospital authorities say the child
was at first thought to be white
and is still considered so by the
police and most of the hospital at.
tendants who saw her. One inferno,
however. insists that she IL colored.
IL it Is decided she is white she
will be kept at the hospital for
some time. otherwise she will be
turned over to Freedman's Hospital.
That the child had been in the
yard but short. time was indicated,
hospitals attendants say. by the
fact that she refused milk.

TEAM MUST Be SELECTED

Special Tryout Events Are Not Con-
duciye to Getting Best Athletes
in OIympics.

Chicago, Aug. q H'A-If America
is to make a better showing in fu-
ture Olympic games, it must select
its team only on the basis of past
performances, and not from special
try-out events, X. J.. TUG Wilson,
athletic director of Northwestern
university, believes.
Wilson, who has just returned
sterdam, said the American track
and field athletes were tired and
stale from their strenuous efforts in
the tryouts in this country and
couldn't have done any better.
Il believe our boys would have
done twice as well if it hadn't been
for those tryouts," he said. "Their
energy was sapped by their eager
ness to make the team and get that
trip abroad, NUT they tried just as
hard as any one could try. Then,
too there were many good athletes
left at home who had off days at the
Harvard tryouts like any good ath-
lete does. In the future, ] hope

Minneapolis, Aug. 81 R-Big
league clubs don't always have the
advantage in trades with small
teams. Witness the case of the
Minneapolis club OF the American
Association.
The first months play of the 1928
season in addition to proving that
the Millers were second division
outfit revealed that the club had
three outstanding young stars.
Major league scouts promptly, began
buzzing about the club.
Manager Mike Kelley traded one
of his stars. Catcher Eddie kenna,
TO Washington for catcher, a
pitcher and. an infielder and when
the Senators also expressed an in
terest in Pitcher Adolph Liska and
Outfielder Spencer Harris, Kelley
indicated he might talk business
later providing Washington would
help him out with some more of its
surplus talent. The Senators came
through with another intielder and
another pitcher. meanwhile permit
ting the Mllers to retain Liska and
| Harris.
| So for one player and an option
on two others, the Millers got five
Washington men, picking up enough
strength to grab second place and
become strong pennant contender.
Minneapolis through this shreWd
bit of business acquired Pitchers
| Van Allstyne and Liscnbee, 1ntield-
ers ellis and Hayes and Catcher
| McMullen.
The Sena' III have to wait
until the ct, the American AS
ISOLATION sea: for their full share
of the bargaining. Then. it is as
sumed, they will receive Harris and
Liska.
Liska scarcely 81, had won IS
and lost only four games by the
middle of August. He is a right
handler with peculiar under-hand
delivery. The Millcrs bought him
last fall from the burlington club
of the Mississippi Valley league.
Harris, a lcft-handed batter
came to the Mllers last spring
from Shreveport of the Southern
Association. Shreveport obtained
Harris from the Chicago White
SoX who gave him a brief tryou'
two years ago. Harris has hi
around 80 home runs to lead the
league. He has been hitting better

An agreement has been reached
between Manager John Cabay OF the
Falcon \. c. baseball team and
Manager Frank Anastasio of the
Ranger A. G. team whereby both
clubs will clash next Sunday after
noon at o'clock at st. Mary's play
ground. Unconvinced that the Ran
gers were in the same class with
the Falcons, Manager Cabay final
ly yielded to the persistent chal-
lenges hurled at him by Manager
Anastasio and agreed to take on the
local team.
Articles of agreement were signed
yesterday between the two. Both
men have agreed to use only players
who have played with the teams
tins season and real battle is be-
ing anticipated. because of the fact
that the Rangers have had only one
pitcher during the year, Manager
Anastasio will be allowed to secure
another hurler for the game.
The Rangers have been on a VIM
played some of the best teams
in the state both in this
city and on the road and have
won majority of their games. The
Falcons went through to a 10 game
winning streak which was broken a
week ago last Sunday and again last
Sunday.
Interest in the game among the
baseball fans of the city will be at
fever pitch by game time, it is ex-
pected. Both clubs have strong
folioWings and both contingents are
certain that their respective teams
will win.
Hrrbie Sautter has been named
by Manager Cabay as the Falcon
choice of umpire while Paul las
been selected by the Rangers. These
two viii work the game Sunday
with Sau;tcr probably behind the
