BY GAYLE TALBOT,
Associated PI ass Sports Editor


THEY laughed early in the
season when Hack Wilson
i planted his piano legs be-
fore the plate at Ebbet'S
Field and couldn't hit a lick, but
the waning days of July find the
Martinsburg bomber in a fair way
to becoming a hero in Brooklyn.
The Chicago castof got away to a
poor start with Flatbush fans. But he
has made grand comeback in the last
two months. He finally boosted his
batting mark over the magic 800 fig
ure yesterday. leaving him second only
to Lefty O'Doul among the clubs hit
ters, and his total of 83 runs batted in
is topped m the National League only
by two Phillie sluggers, Klein and
Hurst. He has belted 18 home runs
and Is doubles.
Batting in the cleanup position yes
terday, Wilson smashed a home run
and a double to drive across three runs
and scored a pair himself to feature
the Dodgers 7-to-4 victory over st.
Louis.
The Pittsburgh Pirates poured an
OIIleT SdINO ulIO Il4S AAOuAAuCll Liz 0AduIo,
scoring four runs off Adolfo Luque In
the eighth inning to win, to 3. AS
Chicago was held idle by rain, the
Pirates increased their lead to six
games over the field.
Ed Holley kept nine hits well scat
tered to give the Phillies a 5-to-2 tri-
umph over the Cincinnati Reds.
Cleveland made it three out Of four
over the Yankees with a 4-to-3 victory.
Aided by Red Kress' home run, the
Chicago White Sox nosed out Boston.
4 to 3, their first win Of the four game
series.

contest took place at Salt Lake City,
February IS, 1917, and the end came
in the very first round. Some say it
was a f1uke; others tAat Dempsey

scored a knockout and his name went
down into ring history.
Flynn, christened Andrew Chiari-

Pueblo, Colo, when Jim was years

Shadows of the Past

7 ONG after the gameness and
IL other fighting qualities of Jim
Flynn, the Pueblo Fireman"
have been forgotten, there is still one
of his accomplishments that will con-
tinue to live in the memories Of box
ing fans. For no matter what else he
tried and failed to do, Flynn has the
distinction of being the only fighter
that ever knocked out Jack Dempsey,
former heavyweight king. Even to-
day, every time a heavyweight con-
test is ballyhooed, reference is made
of Flynn's knockout of Dempsey to
prove that most champions, during
their eaerly careers, have found one
or two more hazards that stumped
them.
Flynn, who lives in Phoenix, Ariz.,
where he operates taxicab, got into

Last Place Reds
Feared by Giants

NEW YORK, July 30.-The Gin
IN cinnati Reds moved into the
Polo Grounds today for a four
game series with the Giants.
The Reds. in last place, have been
making threatening gestures at the
Giants of late. The Giants do not
look on them lightly, either. They
have enough good pitchers and on
days when they pull themselves to-
gether they are dangerous. Indeed,
Bill Terry says they look far too
good to be in last place.
That's not a surprising verdict on
his part. For when the Giants were
in Cincinnati a couple of weeks ago
the Reds beat them three times in
four sstartS.

PRESENT PARK SITE
TOPE0PLE OF CITY
Bismarck Hospital Organization
Turns Over 1o-Acre Tact
of Woodlands

A 10-acre park site has been made
available to outdoor enthusiasts and
picnickers OF the Bismarck area
through the generosity Of the Bis
marck hospital organization, 8. w.
CorWin, president of the city park
board, announced Wednesday.
The site is located in the woods just
below Pioneers Park near the Mis-
souri, river, two miles northwest of
Bismarck.
The property was decided to the
park board by the Bismarck Hospital
and Deaconess Home of the North
Dakota Conference of Evangelical
churches, which has owned the prop
erty for several years. The site will
be made part of Pioneers Park and
will be open to the general public.
The tract, regarded as one of the
park boards most valuable holdings,
is heavily wooded and lends itself
particularly we'll to use as a picnic
ground, Corwin said.
Under a program to be undertaken
here during the year, planting will be
done at several of the Bismarck park
sites. Trees will be planted along
Memorial highway to the Missouri
river bridge while trees and shrubs
will. be set in at Park Lake west of
the city.
Additional planting will be done
this year at Hillside park. near the
Richholt school, and at Tatley Park,
In the southeastern section of the city,
under the program now under consid-
Grafton.
During the winter months work of
cleaning away underbrush at River
side Park on the Missouri river banks
was completed, Corwin said.

TAYLOR GIVES talk
AT ROTARY MEETING
Sketches History Of Wheat Pro-
duction From Earliest
Operations

The average American consumes
an average of about five bushels OF
wheat a year, j. G. Taylor said in
an address on the STORY of Bread
before members of the Rotary club
Wednesday noon.
Taylor sketched the history of the
production Of wheat for use as bread
from the earliest operations down
through the centuries to the present
era.
It was in the United States that
wheat-raising received its great i'm
petuS, the speaker said, and 1t was
here that the first practical reaper
was invented to bring cheap bread
within the grasp OF the people.
The invention Of the reaper by
Mccormick made possible the mass
production of wheat and was one of
the great contributing factors in the
development of the modern machine
age. In the time of Nero 1t took
three and one-half days labor to pro-
duce a buShel of wheat while today
1t requires but 10 minutes.
It was the reaper that played an
important part in the development in
the northwest and moved the center
of the agricultural industry away
from the Atlantic coast, Taylor said.
Announcement was made at the
Injecting that the annual Farmers
banquet will be held at the World
War Memorial building gymnasium
at GAS p. m. March Is. AS a result
no luncheon meeting will be held
next week. H. G. Zavoral, head of
the Russian Soviet swine farm, will
be the speaker at the banquet.
j. p. French was program chair
man. H. Sapey, Mankato, Mimi, was
guest.

then, II there is any backbone to this
proposal, 1t is necessary for the peo-
pie Of North Dakota to keep the reins
In their hands and vote No for the
amendment Of the constitution, sim
ply for the reason It would increase
the number Of signers too much, and
| 1t would be hard for the people to en-
act any laws. This Is my honest
opinion about 1t.
This writer believes in a govern
ment for the people and by the peo-
pie. I see only two cuts were made
by our last legislature, the county
school superintendent mileags, from
16c per mile to 12hc and the sheriff's
mileage from zoe to Ice per mile for
auto or team travel and from 10c to
&c per mile by railroad lin the state).
The latter cut was vetoed by the Hon
orable Governor.
Everybody seems to holler taxes are
too high. Now then let's do some-
thing. I advise that every township
this year will cut their township gov
eminent expenses which can be done,
regardless of how high legislation has
AAANAC0oCO WIG odAdIlcS VI IOW1lSIAlp VI.
ficials since 1913.
The laws either forgot to take the
reins away from the township cleo
tors or did not want to.
The following Is law, let us town.
ship voters use It: AT every township
meeting (election) before the electors
commence balloting for officers they
may, by resolution, reduce or increase
the compensation of officers, but no
such increase shall exceed 100 per
cent"
OF course we do not want to in
crease the salaries. You will find the
foregoing law in the Revised Code of
1899, s. 1925, and 1t is a law today.
Let us use it. Let us admire our old
laws
You cannot miss it by voting NO
down the line. It will leave the Cap
ital where it is
