The Giants brushed up yesterday
for their do-or-die effort by bowling
c~ourteouSly to the fallen Cardinals,
who came to life and accepted the
decision, 6 to 1. The Pirates got
only an even break at Boston, but
nevertheless remained 10 notches
ahead of the Giants in the impor-
tant column dealing with games
lost. The Cubs profited from the
Pirate slip by smothering the Phil
lies, 16 to 3, and so gaining half a
game on the leaders. The Pitts
burgh margin now is just two
games.
The defeat Of DOME Bush's boys
in the first game at Boston was
most unexpected. Burleigh Grimes
was pitted against Harry Seibold,
veteran rookie, who held the Buc-
cancers to nine we'll scattered hits
as the Braves du-1-d Grimes for a
7 to 4 decision, the big spitbaIler's
second defeat of the season. The
Pirates came back in the nightcap
to win by Is to 5 behind Remy
Kremer.
Brooklyn crowned three Cincin-
cinnati pitchers for II hits to win
the final game of the series by 10
to 5. The result delayed the march
Of the Reds upon seventh place.
The Athletics dropped another
one to the Indians, who won 5 to
2 behind Walter Miller's six-hit
pitching. Bill Shores was the vic
tim.
The Mackmen nevertheless re-
manned eight games ahead Of the
Yankees, who tossed off a four-run
lead in the ninth and permitted the
Tigers to win 9 to 8 in the tenth.
Sammy Gray gained an even
break for the Browns in their series
against the Red SoX by pitching
five-hit ball yesterday to win by 4
to 0.
The Senators won from the White
Sox in the final game Of the series
at Chicago, by a score of 6 to 2.

BOXER OR FIGHTER? TOMMY -BRADDOCK CONFER TONIGH,
Qnimn, "A, In Baseball 20 Years,
Plans ORetireA OfSedSOn

PHILADELPHIA, July 18.-(P-
Twenty-Five years in baseball is
enough or one man, says Jack
Quinn, who throws twisters for the
Athletics.
Jack, who was christened John
Quinn Picus, was A years old July
5. That is the way the records
have it. Jack looks like he might
be so. Yet he throws like he was
25.
Anyway, Jack has announced his
retirement effective at the end Of
this season.
Quinn after breaking into pro-
fessional baseball in the Pennsyl-
vania state league in 1903 first hit
the majors with the Yankees in 1909.
-Four years later he was sent to Ro-
chester. The Braves had him for
a few moments in 1913 and then
Jack jumped to Baltimore of the
Federal league for a two-year hitch.
When the outlaw league blew up
in 1915 Quinn headed westward and
joined the Vernon club of the Pa
cific coast league. He was there in
1916. 1917. and part of 1918. going
to the White SoX when the coast
loop suspended because of the war
Jack finished the season there
and next year found himself the
center OF an argument between the
White Sox and the Yankees. He
vas awarded to the latter and re-
manned with that club through 1921.
Traded to the Red Sox in 1922,
the veteran played there through
1924 al then went to the Ath-
letics on waivers early in 1925.

WAS v. CAMPOLO

NEW YORK, July 18.-(P-
Very little information concern
ing the fighting ability of Vitor-
rio Campolo, Argentina's gigan-
tic heavyweight, has come out of
his North American debut.
Campolo was in action just
seven minutes 81 seconds against
Arthur De Kuh, Italian-American
boxer, in his first New York bat
tie at Ebbets Field, last night,
winning on a foul halfway
through the third round.
One thing proved was that the
Argentine has the necessary
qualifications as to size. De Kuh
is no small heavyweight, but he
was not in the same class with
Campolo who carries 226 pounds
of solid beef on his 6 foot z inch
frame. And it was that bulk that
gave the Argentine the margin.

Jersey Jimmy" has risen in a
brief booing career to the post Of
challenger for the 175-pound crown,
and tonight he pits the devastating

Jimmy Slattery against the boxing
ykill Of the champion, Tommy
Loughran.
Although the fight is tsaged in the
Yankee Stadium biggest of New

distance of Is rounds, it is not ex-
pected to be very profitable to either
the champion or the challenger. So
far It has drawn little more than
oassing interest despite a frenzied
ballyhoo, and only about $4,000 fans
are expected at the ringside when
the 20 starts at 10 p. m, eastern
daylight time.
The show is for the benefit OF the
hospital fund of the home OF the
Daughters Of Jacob at prices rang

nuts his trust in a death-dealing

Tchula Youth Killed
Sunday Night Asleep
On Railroad Tracks

Crawford Rogers, 20-year old son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Hinton Rogers, of Tchula,
was killed Sunday night at 1890 o'clock
when struck by a north bound freight
of the Y. & M. V. Railroad. The acci-
dent occurred north of the depot, the
only witness being the engineer of train
who saw the figure too late to stop the
train, mistaking the body for a pile of
papers on the track until too late to
avoid striking the boy.
According to available information, no
one was with the young man at the time
of the accident. He had been talking
with his employer prior to the time
about driving a truck, and left local
cafe, walking towards the depot.
Whether he tried walking across the
track or fell asleep at the spot where
he was killed was not determined, as no
one was with him.
He was carried to a nearby doctors
office by DIR. P. M Smith, Vardaman
Smith and Oten Whitehead, where he
lived only a few niinutes2 He was badly
crushed and mangled and never regain
ed consciousness.
The body was brought to Lexington
and prepared for burial by C. S. Harrell,
local undertaken. Funeral services were
held at Oregon cemetery, near Lexing-
ton at $3.50 Monday afternoon, conduct
ed by Rev. A. T. Clanton, pastor of the
Methodist churc, Tchula.
Deceased is survived by his parents
and two sisters, all living at Tchula.

Indicted Farmer Asks
Early Trial Relative
Soil Robbing Charge

The defendant in the trial of soil rob-
bing was so persistent for an early trial
that the date has been set for the early
part of November. 1t is believed that
friends of the defendant and parties in
terested in the final outcome of the
trial were largely responsible for the
agitation for an early trial, realizing
that should verdict be secured it would
give them ample time to terrace their
farms and make other necessary changes
which would forestall their own indict-
ment.
Counsel for the state is certain that a
verdict of guilty will be returned by
the jury. Claiming that it will be i'm
possible to empanel a jury of twelve
men who can not be convinced that neg
ilgence in preventing soil washing or
planting crops which or to be returned
to the soil to replensh plant food re-
moved each year through the sale of
crops, constitutes a form of robbery.
Citing the fact that sales of commercial
fertilizers are mounting yearly which
indicate that the soils of the county are
becoming exhausted and this plant food
must be purchased to supply the loss.
Counsel for the defense argue that it
Is cheaper to buy this plant food than
TO build terraces and grow crops to turn
under for the benefit of the soil Off
setting this argument, by counsel for
the state, 1T is claimed that land does
not belong to man merely because he
happens to have paid certain price for
deed, but belongs to posterity and to
allow this washing and teaching, with
the continued removal of plant food in
crops Will place an ever increasing bur-
den OF expensive fertilizers
Another idea advanced by the state.
and not answered by the defense, is the
fact that when all of the humus, decay
ed vegetable matter, is exhausted from
the soil, and the dependence for moist
ure is placed entirely upon the seasonal
rains, which may fail to come, that crop
failures will result which will more than
repay the expense of building terraces.
The state further argues that this ter
racing work is done during the winter
months when the farmers are not doing
work which would return a revenue any
way; that stock must be fed whether at
work or not and that this work could
be done without any great expense. The
defendant claims, without advice from
his attorney, that it is during this win
ter season that he is busy hunting and
does not have time for this work. Also
that he is busy making ARRANGEMENTS
for credit with which to make another
crop.
1t was learned upon going to press
that each side had engaged the services
OF an expert alienist to pass upon ques-
tlons of inferiority complexes should
this be advanced by the defense
