which first was played July 3,
1888, in Chicago as part Of the
promotion OF the Century OF
Progress.
While no official hneups have
been announced, those who spec
ulate on such things look for
Bucky Walters of the Reds, Max
Lanier of the Cardinals and prob
ably Rip Sewell of the Pirates to
do the pitching for the National
League team.
The American Leaguers prob
ably will counter with Tex Hugh
son of the Red Sox, winner of 13
games in the regular season thus
far Hank Boiowy of the Yankees
and either Harold Newhouser or
Paul Dizzy Trout of the Tigers,
or Bob Muncrief of the Browns.
Besides Newhouser and Trout,
Tigers picked on the American
League squad include Rudy York
and Pinky Higgins. All in the
Tiger quartet except Trout have

NEW YORK. July Shaving

in three tries this season, Hal
Newhouser now takes permanent
possession of William as his IA
vorite cousin.
Zuber yielded for the third time
today at the Yankee Stadium, CD.
Paul Richards broke run
apiece tie in the fourth with a
home run into the left field seats.
and a two-run triple by Eddie
Mayo in the seventh insured New
houser his thirteenth triumph or
the season and also an All-Star
nod from Joe Mccarthy next
Tuesday night in Pittsburgh.
ALLOWS 4 HITS
It was Halls fourth triumph
over the Yanks. this season and
he accomplished it easily with a
four hitter. There were few thrills
for crowd of 1884, including
7,704 cash clients.
Mayo and Richards were the
principal disturbers OF Zuber'S
peace. Mayo slugged William for
triples in the third, and seventh
rounds after jabbing him with a
single in the first. Neither OF
the first two Mayo blows rang
the scoring bell. but he hit the
jackpot in the seventh.
Singles by Hoover and Higgins
in the first inning, seasoned by
HoStetler's sacrifice, opened the
second The Yanks retaliated in
the last half with Milosevich's
three b agger and a fly by
Metheny.
They went into the seventh
trailing by one run as a result
of the Richards homer. With one
out in the first half Zuber walked
Outlaw. Higgins singled. Mayo
tripled to right center and York s
long fly to Metheny knocked in
the third run.
RALLY CHECKED
The Yanks raised a mild dis
turbance in their half during
which they were bothered at the
plate by japanese beetles. also
by Newhouser after he. thought
the uprising had gone far enough.
After the Yanks completed a
double play on the first two
Tigers in the ninth, York walked
and scored on singles by Cramer
and Richards.

morrow Detroits starting pitchers

Manager Steve O'Neill said that
the possibility of Dick Wakefield
returning TO the Tigers in the near
future was the best news he had
heard in long time.
IL can hardly believe It," he
said, "but II It's true IL may be
just the added punch we need
to battle our way back to the
first division and maybe the top.
We can use guy who hits

Black Badge
Badly Beaten
Runs Fourth as
Seven Hearts Wins
BY LEWIS H. WALTER

Black Badge, Detroit turf
champion for two seasons, suffered
his first defeat in four starts Sat
urday when Seven Hearts. owned
by the Brown Hotel Stable OF
Louisville. raced to three-quarter
length victory under Jockey Mike
Caffarella in the $4,000 Cover
nor's Handicap at the Detroit race
track.
The top weighted Black Badge
carrying l27 pounds and giving
away weight 10 each of his seven
rivals, finished out OF the money
for the second time this season.
The 1910 favorite from the stable
of A. f. Hirschberg Of San Fran
cisco carried thousands OF his
hackers 10 defeat with him as he
finished fourth. He failed 10
threaten the leaders at any stage,
despite the urging OF jockey
Johnny Adams.
The Dixiana Farms Amber
Light. which set the pace into
the stretch. finished second. with
Mrs Edward McCuan's Wise Moss
thrd and Son o War fifth.
SECOND VICTORY
II was the second straight VIC
tory here in a comeback drive by
Seven Hearts, which was the q
year-old champion here in 1912
and suffered a letdown last year
after winning the Arkansas Derby.
Black Badges defeat was not a
great surprise because the 3-year-
old was spotting older rivals lot
Of weight. A real disappointment
however. was the Dearborn Sta
bles Nelson DunStan. which fin
iShed close second TO Black
Badge a week earlier in the $40
600 Sport OF Kings Handicap.
Caffarellas triumph on Seven
Hearts was the high spot OF a
triple which gave him riding hon
ors for the second successive Sat
urday. The week before he had
ridden five winners while Johnny
Adams had the other three. This
time the veteran rider from Sche-
nectady gave his many followers
in the crowd Of u COZ a good start
when he brought the s 10 ! Air
sickle iino dead heat in the first
race. He followed his Seven Hearts
triumph on the favored Toy QUAY
in the eighth race for $500
mutuel
Although Jockey KEEPER had
come all the way from Garden
State Park AZ Camden. ~ j., to
ride Nelson DunStan, he did not

illness OF Jockey j. r. Layton

STATEHOOD ADVOCATED
BY REPUBLICANS

SKAGWAY-The Territorial Re publican convention adopted strong plank in it's 1914 platform for statehood. advocating immed- fate passage by Congress of a prac- tieable enabling act which will per init the people of Alaska to draw up a constitution and form a state government under which it would be admitted to the union on a firm and equal footing with the other IS states.
 The platform also opposed any radical change in the present law governing acquisition of mining property. particularly opposing the proposal that the Federal govern ment lease land for mining.
 The group demanded the return 10 the public domain status of a 25O-mile wide strip along each side of the Alaskan military high way.
 The Republicans opposed any ad- ditional tax programs during the national emergency but requested a survey to facilitate postwar de- yelopment Of tourist trade, fishing and lumber industries.
 We believe in progressive labor policy" said the platform, in cludiug improvement of working conditions, prevention of unjust dis crimination between workers and fayoring employment of bona fide residents of Alaska in Alaskan in dustry."
 The convention asked that there be no discrimination between na- tives and whites in pensions and relief allowances.
