Ii is gratifying to note the strong
editorial backing the metropolitan
dailies gave the ideal OF fair
play in the case OF Joe Louis
The New York Post came out in
ringing affirmation of the fiber
al and tolerant spirit that was
manifest In letting Joe not only
knock out Baer. but pick up a
check of $217,O0O and depart in
peace for his home In the West.
The New York Sun delved even
deeper info the public conscious.
ness by pointing out that Joe
Louis is a product OF the much
abused machine system"-that
he once tended machine in Mr.
Ford's factory in Detroit. and
averred that perhaps he formed
the basis of his amazingly precise
technique in going through the
monotonous but exact motions of
putting in place. over and over
again a certain bolt in the body
Of Ford Cars
Even Westbrook Pegler. the
Scripps- Howard columnist whose
daily stint is released in the New
York World-Telegram. relented
from his former dyspeptic attitude
exhibited just prior to the Louis
Baer bout, and actually praised the
Brown Bomber for his fine public
department and recommended him
as a model for Congress in the
economical use of words.

FROM THE PRESS BOX
Foxx, Gomez Broybedters as american
Ledguers Sustain Spell Over N. L. Aces.
BY JOHN LARDNER.

The first Iethal blow of the
day was struck by James Foxx,
the Margate mauler, most con-
fident of all the current home
run kings.
James had been promising for some
time TO commit mayhem upon any
National League pitcher who was care
less enough to cross his path-he
called his shot with home run that
dropped just over the left field wall,
325 feet away-Gehrig scored ahead
of him and Billy Walker was two
miles in the hole.
Goofy Gomez, the odd Castilian. was
hot as a flame for three innings, re-
firing nine men In a row after Martin
opened the can with his single in the
flrst-but vengeance and the homicide
squad caught up with Gomez when
Vaughan doubled and Terry singled In
the fourth round-one run crossed the
plate and Mel Harder, last years win
ming pitcher, began to warm up.
FoxX did the second of his specially
numbers in the same fourth inning,
striking out with great ease and pres
ence of mind-Bob johnson rounded
out the brother act by doing the same,
but Schumacher's chance for an in
ming of 100 per cent whitewash was
spoiled when Simmons scratched out
an infield single-Joey Vosmik fetched
a yell from the loges with single in
the fifth and another yell as he crossed
the pan on Foxx's second hit.
For the hometown crowd this
game was Vosmik VS.. the Ma
tional League.
To sum up the drab, well-played
contest: Gomez was the winning
pitcher and deserved to be: Foxx sup
piled the winning punch with two
hits and three runs batted in; the
American League used Is players, the
National 18.
Bob johnson, the American
Leagues leading hitter, went
hitless and struck out three
times in a row. distributing his
favors to Schumacher twice and
Dean once.

CUP REGATTA ADDS
SAILING CONTESTS
Events Are Slated in Star and
Comet Classes-Foreigners
May Drive Here.

CALLING races will be included as a
part of the Presidents Cup Re
gatta for the first time in the history
Of the event, 1t has been disclosed fol-
lowing a meeting of the Executive
Committee of the Potomac River
Sailing Club at the Capital Yacht
Club last night. The proposal to in
clude sail boat racing in the star and
comet classes had come before a
luncheon meeting of the President s
Cup Regatta Association yesterday at
the Harrington Hotel and was greeted
with favor by that body.
Two races each for the stars. %
foot craft, and the comets. 16-foot
boats. will be held over a 4,OOO-yard
course on September 26 and a Smile
competition for each type on the
morning of the following day will pre-
cede a free-for- all event for any and
every floating object carrying a sail.
The entrants also will take part in the
night pageant of the regatta.
Probability that outstanding French
and Italian speed boat drivers may
compete in American races this sea-
son threw an international flavor into
the local regatta when L. Gordon
Ieech announced the invaders favored
the Presidents Cup races.
Committee reports showed favorable
progress along all fronts for the 1885
regatta. 1t is expected that President
Roosevelt will attend the regatta this
year.

0'MAHONEY |RKED,
FLATTENS INDIAN
Resents Tactics of Little
Wolf, Slams Him Often
for Speedy Fall.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK, July 9.-It's bad
M business. getting an Irish
mans dander up.
Chief Little Wolf Of Trini-
dad, Colo, tried it last night with
Danno O'Mahoney Of Ireland. who
claims the world heavyweight wrest-
ling championship, and found himself
bouncing on the ring floor like a rub
Der ball.
O'Mahoney, weighing 234. which
was "a pounds more than the Indian,
was willing to make a nice little
party out Of 1t until the Chief en-
ployed some tactics that might be
termed foul. He gouged. pinched,
slugged and scratched. He used his
elbows and he howled blocd-curdling
howls. And he got the 1rishman's
dander up.
OMahoney, who took his title from
Jim LondoS In Boston last week,
slipped out Of one Of the chiefs best
grips, lifted him high into the air
and slammed him on the floor no
less than a dozen times, much to the
delight of the many Irish present.
Then O'Mahoney pinned his shoul-
ders TO the mat. The time was
1928.
Ringside critics said that O'Ma-
honey was much improved over his
last Winters appearances. He showed
more speed and cleverness and there
was more power in his big bulk.
