suggests a twin contest. They
have another sister, Ida, who
has Joined recently. Ida is
talented young person and can
both dance and play the piano.
She offers to help Kit KarSon
out with his program some
time. Which is nice of Ida,
and some day when we have
more time on the air we might
arrange it.
The twins are 9 years old and
Ida is 10. And all three write
a beautiful letter for their age.
Kit enjoyed hearing from them,

Lorraine jain, 2415 First

there are any books, ETC., on
the club. We are sorry, but as
yet there are not. The club is,
after all, however, just a baby,
and all those things take
time. Only it's fun, don't you
think, to be in at the start and
grow with your organization?
Some day, when The Washing

Sumner also suggests a band

What are the angles to Rogers Horns

was supposed to be signed to try out for
the second base berth, his favorite posi-

said "As for my shifting to third base,

play third and it is too late to shift now"

formed similar duties under Dan
Howley, whom Bush succeeded.
Ems, former coach and manager of
the Pirates, was coach with the De-
troit Tigers this year. He worked
under Bush at Pittsburgh when
Ownie was boss of the BUGS. When
Doolan was released, some time ago,
it was announced the Reds would
tackle the 1888 campaign without
a coach. However, no big league
manager can struggle along with
out an assistant and bear up I'M

Ownie Bush landed back in town today
and confirmed the Carroll and Crabtree

The hard-Skating roller polo club

Gar Davis and Hendricks Ken
worthy, who are promoting the

head" and state that every one con-
nected with the promotion is donat-

take any charity angle to attract
sports lovers to Tomlinson hall to-

enjoyed thrills as the local quintet
drubbed FIT. Wayne.
The Muncie team will be accom-
panied to Indianapolis by a big
delegation of fans. A prelim game

State Ring Rulers Seek
to Protect Amateurs

Legislation to place all amateur
boxing shows in Indiana under the
jurisdiction Of the A. A. U. or sim
liar accredited amateur organiza-
tons, was suggested for introduction
to the 1888 general assembly at a
meeting of the state athletic COM
mission here Friday.
Under the law creating the indiana COM
mission. only professional promotions are
supervised. Death of youthful contestant
in an amateur boxing match at Elkhart
several months ago prompted the proposal.
Andrew WeiSburg, South Bend. commission
chairman, said. Paul R. Jordan of the
Indiana-Kentucky A. A. U. is favorable to
the new plan, Weisburg announced.
Tracy Cox, Indianapolis junior welter-
weight was instructed by the commission
to answer charges brought against him by
Ted Sullivan, boxing inspector, in connec-
ton with his recent meeting with Harry
Dublinsky, Chicago. at Indianapolis. Cox
was charged with improper tapping of his
hands.

Fuller Stopped for First
Time i'm McLarnin Scrap

Fuller, Friday night with an eight
round knockout.
The Vancouver Irishman f1oored
his granite awed opponent three
times before administering the coup
de grace. He demonstrated con-
vincingly frat his hands have
healed.
A crushing right jolt to the jaw
sent Fuller flying halfway between
the ropes and, just two seconds be-
fore the eighth round ended, the
referee completed the fun count
for the first knockout in Fuller's
ring career. No one else had fioored
this rugged, sawed-off Italian.
1t was Fuller's first venture into
the welter ranks after a successful
lightweight campaign, which in
cluded a nontitle victory over
Champion Tony Canzoneri.
McLarnin, outweighing his oppo-
nent. las TO 1856, was master of the
fight from the very first minute Of
action.
FcNteen thousand saw the fight.

Sunny jim Bottomley will be a
welcome addition to the Queen City
team and will help round out the
infeld that Manager Ownie Bush
is reconstructing for the 1893 cam
paign. The Cardinal veteran fell
off to some extent in hitting in 1882,
finishing with a mark of .296, but
he is figured better hitter than
this years averages show. In 1881
he was a close contender for the
high average title of the National
League, batting .348, losing out to
Chick Hafey and Bill Terry by
fraction of point.
Strong on Defense
1t is said Bottomley was not ex-
actly satisfied with conditions in ST.
Louis this year and was mentioned
prominently as the new manager
of the Reds until after Bush was
l-nded. Sunny Jim is rated high
class defensive man on the inner
works and carries good punch at
the plate. He swings and throws
left-handed.
Bottomley's 1882 record follows:
Games, 81; at bat 311; runs, As;
hits, 90; total bases, lat; doubles,
16; triples, 8; home runs, IL; sacri-
flee hits, 2; stolen bases, 2; runs
batted in, 49,; bases on balls, Is;
struck out, 80; fielding average,
$685. His age is 80.
Won 10; Lost 10
Owen Carroll, righthanded pitcher
used as part of the deal for Bottom
ley, won ten games and lost nine
teen for the Redlegs in 1882. Aver
age runs earned per nine-inning
game off of him was $50. He is 30
years old.
Estel Crabtree, the slender fly
chaser who will accompany Carroll
to st. Louis, batted .273 this year.
He is lefthanded hitter and throws
righthanded. His age is q. He
appeared in 103 games for the Cincy
aggregation in 1882. He got ITO
hits in 400 times at bat and his
extra base hits were IA doubles, 9
triples and 2 home runs. He stole
2 bases and made 10 sacrifice hits.
