Auker Has
Bout With
Joe kuhel

CHICAGO. Aug. 12.--He might
not admit it-he might even deny
it-but the chances were good
that Manager Jimmy Dykes OF the
Chicago White Sox was quite
happy today about the fighting
ability of his boys.
The fighting ability of the
White Sox was put on exhibition
yesterday in the first game OF the
Sox doubleheader with the st.
Louis Browns. and practically the
whole Chicago club proved itself
to be as Scrappy - aggregation
as Jimmy Dykes is manager.
Luke Sewell's Browns showed
themselves to be handy fellows in
a scrap. too.
II all started in the seventh
inning, just after first baseman
Joe Kuhel of the White Sox had
been hit by ball pitched by Eden
Auker, Browns hurler. Apparently
some hot words flew between
Kuhel and Auker as the first base
man trotted down TO the base.
because before Kuhel reached the
bag Auker intercepted him and
the two began throwing fists.
The Auker-Kuhel brawl brought
practically the full personnel OF
both mines into action and a riot
soon was in full swing Dykes was
one of the first on the scene fol-
lowed by Alan Strange. Brownie
infielder These two started n
battle of their own. Players milled
around, and at least six good fights
spread over the infeld. but the
only real casualty was Auker's
shirt which was torn from his
back.
Three policemen, the three UNI
pires and several ushers finally
restored order. Kuhel, Auker and
Strange were banished.

Help wanted. Must have some
knowledge of football, track, know
how to handle boys; ambitious and
willing to work. Small salary to
start. Bright future for right party.
Apply Prof. Jack Faber, department
of athletics, University of Maryland.
It's not quite that bad, but almost.
No sooner has Coleman Headley
been perforated by a berserk gun
man, leaving Maryland without a
trakc and freshman football coach,
than Mike Lombardo up and joins
the Marines, leaving a sizeable cav
ity in the boxing department. This,
together with his other problems,
leaves Prof. Faber with slightly
jaded hangover. And no relief in
sight.
Nothing to Do But Work.
Faber, you may recall, was chair
man of Maryland's board of football
coaches before Director of Athletics
Gerry Eppley was called to active
Army duty as major at Fort
Meade. This in addition to his
regular chores of exposing students
to the intriguing mysteries OF bac-
teriology-or bugology, as the boys
say. With only two positions to
handle, not mentioning lacrosse, be-
cause it happens in spring, he was a
fairly respectable man in the COM
munity. Saw his family once in a
while, came home for Sunday din
ner and even struck up an acquoint-
ance with the neXt-door neighbor.
Then he fell heir to Eppley's old
post and Faber had to forsake all
leisure. And no sooner was he toll
ing SO hours a day than coaches be-
gan to disappear all around him.
When Headley was wounded an
emergency alarm was sounded for
Mike Surgent, who worked with him
last fall. But Mike ventured into
the wilds of his native Pennsylvania
at the close of school and completely
vanished. Natives furtively mumbled
about strange happenings, and one
