.INSILCOS SET
 FOR DAVID NINE
Chief Bender's Whiskered Team in Second State Game Tomorrow
fspeciaI to inc Democrat,

DCHtOCFdtJ
 Meriden, July 21.-Big Chief Bender and his House of David Baseball club which will play the Meriden Insilcos in Meriden to- morrow afternoon at Insilco sta dium at 3:30 o'clock, is known throughout America as being the greatest novelty baseball attrac- ton the country has ever known. They drew record crowds in every park in which they played, 15,000 in St Louis playing against the Cardinals. 10000 in Chicago, and they hold record attendance marks in all minor league parks where they have appeared. The long whiskered players were in spring training at Mineral Wells, Texas, and they will play 175 games this season, travelling over 25,000 miles in doing so.
 They are not only known for their flowing whiskers, but also for the class of ball played. Many of them have turned down offers from organized baseball rather than trim their whiskers. They annually win 80 per cent of their games. and last year won 33 games III d ToW. lHc lOHS WhibhCiCu boys from Benton Harbor, Mich, should make as good a record this year, provided they don't get their whiskers entangled during the game.
 The pitching staff of this team would gladden. the heart of any league manager, all being giants in size. Chief Bender, the greatest Indian pitcher of all time, is play ing manager of the club. With experienced pitchers such as Mill Ter. Montague, Benton, Fenton and Laufer, the whiskered club has a great staff.
 The pepper game" put on by the House of David players during the game is a great bit of enter tainment. It is really a baseball juggling act which has taken years to perfect. Many other ball play CTS have tried to initiate the act but so far have failed. It has of- ten been said that this pepper game would make a headliner on any vaudeville circuit and 1t is well worth the price of admission.
 No pitcher has the endurance that the chief has and 1t would be q great drawing card to see Big Ed Walsh opposing the chief in Meriden.

WINSTON DUCKINC RETURN GO WITH FOXEGAIMED
Close Nature of Recent BrawI Create ''Natural'' Says Promoter

New York, July 21 = Hartford fistic fans are wondering If Un. known Winston, who recently knocked out Adolf Heuser. the German heavyweight, has gone hit hat on the town that first gave recognition to his skill with the padded mittg.
 Efforts by Homer Renauit to match Winston with Marty Fox. the blonde heavyweight from Man. hattafi. who is one of the most pop ular ringmen with the Hartford fans, have thus far failed. Winston. five years ago, battied Fox In one of the greatest bouts ever seen in the Nutmeg capital. To one Hart ford expert, the fight was d draw. Another thought winston had It by a shade. The fans were divided. But the decision went to Fox. Recently. in . return niatciie Win. ston was awarded the verdict. but the fans booed the decision for more than five minutes.
 No Can See
 Since then the Hartford fans have been ciarnoring for final decisive clash between the two boys. Fox is willing, but thus far Winston, imbued possibly by an exaggerated idea of his importance. according to Hartford fans. be- cause of his knockout of Heuser, has been deaf to all overtures for the Fox match.
 But Renault believes he will have the Negro's signature to a set of articles in the near future. "Hartfofd," said Renault, twas the first town to give Winston a tumble in his fight for recognition. He owes so much to the support given him by my patrons that t would be little less than an insult for him to ignore their demands that he prove he is superior to Fox.
 Or Else
 "The fans in Hartford want Winston to meet Fox. It Is one of those real naturals that bob up only once in while. But they want, above all, Fox to appear in Hartford. Hence. if Winston ducks the issue, Marty will show his prowess in the near future against a battlcr that may extend him even more so than Winston"
 No one Is more incensed at Win ston's actions than Fox. who was vehement in his denunciation oi hls Negro rival upon learning that Winston refused to give him a re- turn match. Marty's innucndos were so strong that if the pair ever do meet the fight will be one of the bittercst grudge bouts ever staged between heavyweights.

What a football game it will be when those starg--aTld a lot more meet Aug 24 in the Century of Progress football game between the midwest and west coast. And with Howard Jones directing the western squad, and Dick Hanley piloting the midwest, all the tricks in the bag will be pulled.
 Glass of Grid
 The roster of each team will shine with All-America stars of the past year, and Jones has even gone so far as to resurrect Morley Drury, that great quarterback of his 1927 Trojan squad.
 With both lineups announced, it Is hard to vision a line that can stand up before either of the back fields or a backfield that can pen citrate either of the lines.
 The western squads line will boast of Arbelbide and Sparling. of Southern California, Nesbit. Washington, and Slavich, Santa Clara, ends: Tay Brown and Ernie Tozer. California, Paul Schwegler. tackles: Johnny Baker and Tipton, Southern California, Pete Heiser, Stanford, O'Brien, Washington, and Gill, California, guards. and Stan Williamson, Southern Califor- mia, center.
 The backs will be Morley Drury, Max Krause, Gonzaga, Gaius Shaw CT, Southern California. Hank Schaldach, California, George San- der, Washington State, Bill Beas- ley, St Mary's and Frank Christen- sen. Utah.
 The eastern squad will have Wes- ley Fesler. Ohio State, Dick Fenc1, Northwestern, and Brad Robinson. Minnesota, at ends: Clarence Mum, Minnesota, Jim Harris, Notre Dame. and John Kokich. Indiana, at guards; Joe Kurth, Notre Dame. Jack Riley, Northwestern, and Marshall Wells, Minnesota. at tackles, and Lawrence Ely. that great Nebraska star, at center.
 The backfield will be composed of Lew Hinchman, Ohio State, Harry Newman. Michigan, Pug Rentner, Northwestern, Jim Purvis and Roy Horstman, Purdue, Jack Manders, Minnesota, and Gil Berry, Illinois.
 Tricks Galore
 with Buch an array or stars on both sides, carrying plenty of weight and able to steam up driv- ing speed. you can look for decep- ton to win the game.
 Both Hanley and Jones are known for trick play and the in- corporation of all styles in their attack. Kicking and forward pass ing will bear lot of weight in the hnfh ot6na |, nvnnl1nnf kickers and plenty of passers and receivers.
 The passing attack of the west will probably center around Drury, passing. with Arbelbide, Nesbit, Schaldach and Beasley receiving; that of the midwest probably will see Newman heaving them with Rentner, Berry, Fesler and Fencl catching

The Giants. primarily q defensive club, are in a tough spot-f0rced to maintain super-pitcfing and afr tight infield play or else succumb to the two more aggressive teams who have regained their batting punch and improved on the mound.
 The race frightened yesterday when New York dropped a Q to 5 decision to the thifd-place Pirates, and the runner-up Cubs downed the Phiilies. This left the Giants only two and half games ahead of Chicago. with the corsairs trail- ing the Cubs by a scant half-con- test.

% RZL BRAUCHE2

The sock market, ike other ex- changes, is on the uptrend. Primo Camera and Max Baer can get a lot more money next June than they could get next month. Primo is not the only party in the agreement willing to hold his cauliflower stock until 1t gets back nearer the peak. Baer also is not anxious to sell out right now.
 Jack Sharkey won and lost the heavyweight championship at rock paid a million and half for two fights as champion. Sharkey's to- tai for the affairs with Schmeling and Camera was around $120,000. less than tenth of what Tunney realized.
 Bargain Sale
 Now Sharkey has accepted a $Z5,00O guarantee for a fight with King Levinsky in Chicago. and aims at Loughran later. No wonder he still wants to battle--he is only try ing to maintain his family and his petunias in the style to which they have been accustomed.
 It is only natural for Camera and Baer to try to cash in few dividends on their stock before cIashing. Camera not only Is broke, but wherever he goes the constabulary is waiting to slap some new plaster or attachment on his vaudeville and exhibition earn ings.
 Baer is being sued. too. He runs smack dab into a legal left hook whenever he exposes his chin. Max has learned to take 1t with laugh. Remote Control
 Fight managers before VIII Duffy, Carnera's handler, and Ancil Hoffman. Max's pilot, have found ways of circumventing the sheriff. It used to be a quaint old Broadway custom to assign a fighters purse to some bank in Tibet where the ovis poll roam. A Mir Hemingway would pop up out of the Tibetan plateau and take care of it. Maybe it's still being done.
 Jimmy McLarnin held out stoutly for $50,000 for return welter Championship bout with Young corbett. That kind of money would look pretty large to heavyweights just now-but the market is going up, and why not walt.

 Due to the loft of the clubhead. when the ball is hit the face of the club at the bottom is further for ward than the rear. This loft If the face permits the clubhead to fit under the ball and causes it to rise even If it Is hit downward.
