ST. LOUIS TEAM
RUINS HOPES OF
new YORK YANKS
BY LEO VI. PETERSEN
{ United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, June %. W.P)-The
st. Louis Browns, VINO back in 1927
win their way into sports page
headlines whenever they held the
Yankees to a close score, have about
sounded the death knell to New
York's 1881 American league PEN
nant hopes.
The Yankees rolled into Chicago
today, after taking three consecu-
tive trimmings from the Browns
The Browns sent the Yankees
away with a IA to 10 lacing Five
Yankee hurlers were ineffective and
the Browns collected 20 hits The
Yankees raped out Is blows, in
cluding Gehrig's 18th and 10th
homers, but after knocking three
pitchers from the box they were
stopped by Kimsey.
The defeat cost New York an op.
portunity to gain lost ground, for
the Athletics dropped an 8 to 2
verdict to Chicago. The defeat
cost the Athletics a half game OF
their leadership for the Washington
club, now three and one-half games
behind, was idle because OF rain at
Cleveland.
Boston defeated Detroit, 7 TO 2,
in the other American league en-
counter.
The st. Louis Cardinals met their
fourth defeat in the seven games
played thus far on their current
eastern invasion, dropping to 8
decision to Philadelphia.
The defeat did not cost the Car
dinals any of their two and one
half game leadership margin in the
National league, however, for the
second place New York Giants were
pounded into submission by Chi
cago, IL to 4. Home runs by Will
son, Hemsley and Hornsby featured
the Cubs attack on three Giant
hurlers as Guy Bush coasted to VIC
tory. tEt
Babe Herman and William Wat
son Clark combined their talents to
give Brooklyn a 10 inning 3 TO 2
victory over Pittsburgh.

JOHNNY TORRES
IS BOY CHOSEN
TO LICK DAVID

1t has all the earmarks of an
other great card, this schedule OF
fights that Harry Woodbury. has
lined up for Friday night, and any
one who knows a thing or two about
the boys will admit that it certain
ly looks good enough for any club
Johnny Torres is the boy the
club has picked to see what can be
done to stop Young David's winning
sureak. The little Filipino has been
following Bobby Pachos footsteps
having won 4 of his l6 fights by
the knockout route.
His most recent win was at Phoe-
nix last Friday night when he won
IL one round, on 4 technical knock
out.
In Torres the club has picked a
touch nut for David to crack.
Johnny is a puncher and that is
the sort of fighter who IS most
lightly TO stop David. A boxer can
hardly do It. Johnny fought Pacho
three times. The first time fans
will recall how a heavy summer
rain called it of at the end Of
eight rounds two years ago. Later
they met at the Olympic and john
ny had Bobby on the floor five
times in 10 rounds. Their third
meeting was here and Bobby won
on a technical knockout when
Johnny's eye was hurt.
That was the night he thought
his eye had been knocked out and
Johnny was badly scared.
He is in hopes OF getting & few
more cracks at the topnotch boys
and will be certain to attract atten-
ton if he knocks out David.
For some reason David has not
been any too popular with the fans
a large number Of them have been
wanting to see him stretched out
and Friday night may be their
chance.
II the semi-final frankie West
will meet George Lujon. That is
expressing it rather mildly. This
ought to be another AguiTre-Berg
lund or Agulrre-IotC flgnt. The
fans know how West can hit. May
be they don't recall Lujon who
fought here several months ago and
nailed his man in a terrific punch
ing bout. The ringside is going to
be a dangerous place when WeSi
and Lujon mix up.
Louis Reyes, the Brawley s]ugger
is coming back again with Louis
Silva, in six round special. Silva
! comes from San Diego and is Just
the style fighter to make Louis &C
over big.

revolt and further change in the
ball before the opening Of the 1882
season virtually is assured.
Although no official announce
ment is forthcoming from q. S. G.

statement that a survey is being
made as to the effects OF the new
ball and that results Of the survey

1t is rumored that the association
already has decided upon an entire
~ new ball.
The official announcement prob
ably will be MADE shortly after the
1881 national amateur tourney and
IS expected to sound the death knell
for the generally despised balloon
ball. The new ball, it is said. viii
be as large as the present unpopu-
lar spheroid, as heavy as the dis
carded ball of 1881. and viii CON-
bine the best features of each.
Balls Of various sizes, makes and
weights are being tested by the y.
S. G. A. and Bobby Jones has been
engaged to try out new balls for q

the association realizes that it

standing events are concerned. Those who
have studied the Bible know that the Book of
Daniel does not end with King Belshazzar's
dramatic death, but records Daniels subsequent
life in the Medo-Persian period There seems
to be a good deal about when the Persian re-
Hgious leader, Zoroaster, actually lived. One
is tempted to trace a connection between his
faith and that of the prophet Daniel" Sir
Charles concluded.
Evidences of the great King Nebuchadnezzar,
with whom the Book of Daniel also deals, have
been uncovered by the joint expedition. tenn
pie built some $500 years ago by Nebuchad-
nezzar has been unea, thed in a mound situated
in the inner corner of the northern harbor of
Ur. in MeSopotania. Nebuchadnezzar is con-
ceded to be the greatest of the Babylonian
Kings. In battle on the Euphrates he de-
feated the Egyptian King Pharaohnecho. and
seized all the countries in Asia which he had
formerly ruled. Nebuchadnezzar invaded Ju-
dah. reduced the ruler Jehoiakim, successor Of
Josiah. TO submission and desecrated the tenn
pie. He took back with him the treasures Of
the temple and many of the people, including
Daniel the prophet
This was the start of the famous 10 years
captivity. The Book of Daniel describes how
the great King fell into idolatry and evil ways
and how the prophet predicted his punishment
which was subsequently fulfilled. The punish
ment, described in Daniel w, has been made
the subject of famous painting: "The same
hour was the thing fulfilled upon Nebuchad-
nezzar; and he driven from men, and did
eat grass as oxen, and his body was wet with
the dew of heaven, till his hairs grown
like eagles feathers, and his nails like birds
claws"
Mr.. Woolley reports the workers nearly over
looked the temple in their excavations toward
the close of the eighth season of the explora-
tions at Ur. 1t was fortunate that they did
not, because the temple proved to be one of the
best preserved ever found in the area.
What makes the building in every way re-
markable is its condition. says Mr.. Woolley.
The walls stand without exception to height
OF nearly 20 feet and even the whitewash on

Illus does the Bible describe the fore
~ cast of the fall of BalshaZzar and its
rapid fulhllment. This fifth chapter
OF the Book Of Daniel. telling of the
ghoStly fingers penning the indictment
of the King of the Chaldeans on the wall, has
been held as a myth by many students of his
tory. 1t has been given by them as one Of
their reasons for the rejection of Holy Writ
historical narrative.
Archaeological discoveries recently made by C.
Leonard Woolley, director of a joint expedition
of the University of Pennsylvania and the
British Museum, tend to show that the events
recorded in the moot fifth chapter of the Book
of Daniel actually took place. The authority
for this is the famous British archeologiSt, Sir
Charles MarSton who has supported many
peditionS to biblical places He believes that
Mr.. Woolleys discoveries indicate the book
written at the same time as events related in
it, He says:
"Mr Woolley has discovered the palace of
Princess Bel Shalt Mamma, and it is possible
that this will lead to some interesting Develop
ments in our knowledge of Bible history. This
princess is believed to have been the sister of
King BelshaZZar of Babylon, whose great feast
was interrupted by the writing on the wall.
Their grandfather, Nebuchadnezzar, the
queror of Jerusalem took the Jewish captives
back to Babylon Archaeology has proved that
this sack of the Holy City did take place and it
is quite possible that the captive Daniel may
have seen Belshazzars palace
HkTANY biblical archeologistS have doubted
the authenticity of the Book of Daniel
but this discovery does much to confirm the
historical accuracy of the story of King Bel
shazzar. Cuneiform writings of the sixth GEN.
tury B. c. inscribed clay tablets nearly $500
years ago already have been deciphered, giving
clear-cut evidence of the reality of Belshazzar
and remarkable confirmation of the subject
matter of the fifth chapter of the Book of
Daniel
Il believe the fifth chapter ranks next to
cuneiform literature In accuracy, as far as out

the only place in Iraq where one can stand in
Babylonian temple and forget for a moment
that it is a ruin," concluded Mr.. Woolley
Another of the most important discoveries
during the last year was that of the site of
the Summer palace Of Sennacherib cruel con-
queror of Babylon, who ruled over the Assyrian
nation from 705 to 68l B. c. An expedition of
the University of Pennsylvania Museum under
the direction of DR.. Ephraim A. Speser found
an inscribed brick at Tell Billa in Northern
MeSopotamia The brick bore the seal of SEN
nacherib and indicated that Tell Billa served
as the Summer home of the monarch Excava-
tions at the site have revealed an ancient tomb
containing a terra-cotta sarcophagus, pottery
and bronzes which have lain undisturbed
through the centuries.
Horace H F. jayne director of the museum
In commenting on the discovery, called atten--
ton to the fact the finding of an ancient tomb
which has not been rifled of its treasure long
ago is rarity and lends credence to the belief
that important discoveries in line with ancient
and biblical history will be made at the site
Tell BiIla, one of the largest and most i'm
posing mounds in ancient ASsyria is situated
fifteen miles northeast of MoSul and about five
miles east of the famous ruins of Khorsabad
1t first attra ted the attention of DR.. Speiser
four years ago when he was making an arche-
illogical survey of Northern Iraq surface
examination at that time revealed that the
remains OF both the prehistoric and historic
periods or particular significance was the
finding Of an inscribed brick which bears the
seal of Sennacherib ASsyrian King of biblical
and Babylonian fame, and makes it clear that
the Tell contains one of the Summer palaces
of the ruler
Further interest attaches 10 the site be-
cause Tell Blla was one of the places through
which the famous Ten Thousand passed on
their retreat after the Battle OF Cunaxa in 4OI
BIC, when Cyrus, with 10000 Greek mer-
cenartes was killed in an attempt to wreSt the
Persian throne from his brother, AataXerxes

until the end of the Assyrian Empire in 6O6
Be, the site of Tell Bia was occupied con-
stantly which adds to the likelihood that exca-
vation there will yield sculpture from the Gold
en- Age of ASsyrian art as well as prehistoric
remains of the aboriginal population of the
land Certain it is that the site will furnish
important scientific information relative to the
early history of Mesopotama."
Sennacherib was not the crueIast of kings
nor the greatest conqueror. His fame has sur
vived through the centuries chiefly through the
story of the defamation of his army sent to
subdue Hezekiah, King of Judca, who refused
to pay him tribute The Book Of Isaiah Chap
ter xxxvi relates how THE angel Of the Lord
went forth, and smote in the camp of the AS
syrians a hundred and fourscore and five
