DIRECTORS ADJUST
VERNON'S AFFAIRS
Thomas Darmody Elected Suc
cessor to Edward J. Maier
on Directorate.
SALARY QUESTION IS UP
Manager Patterson and Roy Mitch
ell "on Carpet" Maler Issues
Statement Saying He Is
Satisfied With Action.
T TjOS ANGELES, Cal., July 14. (Spe
cial.) The directors of the Pacific
Coaet Baseball League adjourned to
night their special meeting, which be
gan here yesterday for the purpose of
Investigating- the affairs of the Vernon
club. President Allan T. Baum said
fen adjournment had been taken subject
to call at any time if conditions - here
needed further consideration.
The club leaders took favorable ac
tion tonight on the selection of Thomas
Barmody as a director to succeed Ed
ward R. Maier, expelled last night for
refusing to appear to give information
concerning the Vernon club.
Officials of the league eaid they were
confident Darmody would be able to
etraighten out affairs of the Vernon
team, but that another meeting would
be called if the club was not able to
abide by the rules governing players
and their salaries.
Walter McCredie, of Portland; Frank
Leavitt, of Oakland, and Frank Mur
phy, of the Salt Lake club, left to
night for San Francisco. President
Baum and Henry Berry planned to
leave tomorrow.
Mitchell Makes Denial.
The directors' meeting today was in
terrupted while President Allan T.
Baum, Hamilton Patterson, manager
of Vernon, and Roy Mitchell, Vernon
pitcher, went to one side to "talk
things over.' "When Baum reappeared,
he admitted he had questioned Mitchell
as to the rumor that the pitcher re
mained on Maier's payroll while os
tensibly released. Mitchell denied this.
He said he was released because his
arm was in bad condition, rested on
Maier's ranch and later was re-signed
by Vernon, all in regular form.
Edward R. Maier, Vernon owner, is
eued a statement today expressing
"satisfaction" with the action and ap
pointing Thomas J. Darmody as his
succeesor, but- asserting he had been
penalized for his efforts to give the
fans good baseball.
"There seems to be the impression
among the majority of the directors
that I was trying to force the league
to operate too expensively," Maier said
in his statement.
"I have always kept and will keep
the fans in mind in baseball matters.
They want and deserve high-class
"baseball on the coast. I soon got in
"bad with the other directors and found
in the few meetings I attended that
I voted alone.
Darmody. Ik BunlneHs Manager,
"Mr. Darmody, who will succeed me
as director of the Pacific Coast League,
is very congenial with the other di
rectors, and I think from now on
things will run much more smoothly.
"I am in baseball for the pleasure
I fret out of it. I will now enjoy the
game and refer all business to Mr.
Darmody.
"Mr. Darmody associated himself with
me so that he could represent the Ver
non club at all league meetings; there
fore the directors' action simplifies
matters and absolutely meets with my
approval."

"To meet my mate the wind that
tramps the world." Kipling.
You and I and tlie rest of us
Who are driftwood down the world
Who are merely mates to the tramping
wind
As the drifting breeze Is whirled;
We. too, have dreams as the dusk comes on.
And our weary mate dies down.
But it isn't a dream of name or tame
Wo missed in the dreary town.
We know, gaunt tramps of the passing
years.
What the dusk dream is that calls:
And it isn't the glory we have missed
Far oft in the city walls:
But the old. old dream of sun-spun hair
Ami eyes of the violet stain.
And a pair of lips with the crimson glow
Of a rosebud rinsed in rain.
We Miielit have fought and we might have
won
But that isn't here or there;
TV raifht have stayed till the laurel came
.Cut that isn't worth a care;
But vagabonds at the edge of dusk.
We know what we've come to miss
vl hen ehosts of children that might have
been
Come for their iroodnight kiss.

"Why do nearly all the great out
fielders come from the South?" queries
a fairly gentle reader. We don't know,
but they indoubtedly do. The greatest
outfielders in the game, from the com
bined value of offensive and defensive
strength are Cobb, of Georgia; Speaker,
of Texas; Jackson, of South Carolina:
Robertson, of Virginia, and Burns, of
New York. Which leaves the South
with 80 per cent of the ranking out
field stars.
'
In the same way Chicago leads the
landscape in great catchers. The Cubs
first had Johnny Kling, and when he
began to slip Jimmy Archer took his
place.
The White Sox had Billy Sullivan,
and now Ray Schalk holds forth easily
the greatest' catcher in baseball today.
What other city within 10 years or
20 years can show four such catchers
as Kling, Archer, Sullivan and Schalk?
There isn't even the suggestion of a
reply.
A. T Boston Thanks awfully and
more of the same.

Sir: I understand that pitchers im
prove greatly in warm weather. Does
the Doomsday Book of Dope show that
the hitting gets lighter as the season
passes the halfway house? A few thou

avidly by at least two nuts.
' (We'll have to excavate a trifle for
this lore, as we haven't any stfch sta
tistics at hand. As a rulewe think
the change is slight in the way of a
general average.)
Considerable discussion has been
aroused as to the proper method of
handling the lightweight tangle now
in dock.
Outside of Freddie "Welsh there are
three mn to be considered Benny
Leonard, Charley "White and Johnny
Dundee. Why not arrange an elimina
tion tournament? Toss White and
Dundee together and let the winner
take on Leonard. The ultimate victor
of the triangular race could then be
sent against Welsh, provided Freddie
wasn't looking at the moment. The
main trouble here is that after the
elimination had been made and the
final choice from the trio named had
been decided upon, Welsh would coun
ter by taking on Kid Broad, Young
Corbett or some third-rate prelim".

A Tale of Six Cities.
The West, with Chicago, Detroit and
Cleveland, has about an even chance
to get in the world Beries, opposed by
New York, Boston and Washington.
Cut further down the main dope is that
Chicago and Detroit have the best
chance in the West, with New York and
Boston in the East.
With about 80 games left for each
club to play, the moment is entirely too
soon to go beyond any further forecast.
The club that ought to win- on paper
through the greatest all-around
strength batting, pitching, fielding
and base running is Chicago. But the
great defensive strength of New York
and Boston give these two clubs ex
cellent chances to arrive. But when
six clubs are only six games apart in
70 games, who is to say what will hap
pen with 80 contests left?

SAN FRANCISCO, July 14. (Spe
cial.) For a matter of seven Innings
at Recreation Park it appeared the
sweets of victory were luring the Oak
landers on to another win. But with
the score 1 to 0, with only a couple
of frames to go, Prough weakened
and was beaten down by 4 to 2 at the
close.
Prough was backed up in great style
by his fielders, particularly Davis, who
played- a wonderful game at short,
Oakland, meanwhile, had scratched
a single run off Noyes in the fifth,
and it looked as big as a house.
Middleton singled infield. Davis
smashed a liner through Guisto's legs
to right, and Middleton scored when
Lane poled against right field fence.
The eighth was the beginning of
the end. Roche, batting for Noyes,
singled to short. Wille walked and
Vaughn sacrificed. Roche stumbled in
going to third, and had Prough been
alive to the situation he could have
forced the runner. Instead he took
the sure out at first. Kodgers popped
to Davis, but Southworth hit a three
bagger against the right field fence,
and Guisto doubled over second, and
three runs were across.
Each team scored in the ninth, and
as that was horse and horse, it made
little or no difference in the general
summing up. Score:

Howdy Says If lie Falls to Land Major

SAN FRANCISCO. July 14. (Special.)
Rowdy Elliott declares himself most
positively as refusing to remain with
the Oakland team in .the event of his
dickering for a major league berth
falling through. And, what is more, the
peppery little backstop and acting man
ager of the club intimates that the club
owners may be attempting to block his
plans to leave for tne East.
"They can't pull off anything of that
sort on me," he declared today. "I
have received but one answer to my
wires and that was not satisfactory.
I should have received more, and sus
pect there is something wrong.
"But 'H say right here I will not
stay with Oakland. There are other
clubs in this league, and some of them
will pay me more money than I am
getting. The one offer I had from a
major league club did not attract roe,
as it didn't give me a chance to better
myself. Rather than that I'll stay on
the Coast but not with Oakland.
Secretary Cook had little to offer.
He expects President Leavltt at home
in the morning, when there will be a
conference. Cook expresses a belief that

some Eastern man will be selected.

Woodland Club Suggests Also That

BOSTON, July 14. When play in the
open tournament of the "Woodland
Golf Club was resumed today, an
nouncement was made that Paul
Tewksbury, one of the club members
who is -under the ban of the United
States Golf Association, because of
business activities, had withdrawn. He
was tied for the lead in medal play.
Tewksbury's action, it was explained,
was due to a vote by the directors of
the Woodland Club that it "would be
better form, entirely regardless of the
United States Golf Association rullnrr.
for Tewskbury, Francis Ouimet and J.
H. Sullivan,-Jr.. not to enter open
tournaments pending the hearing on
the appeal from the decision which
declared them to be no longer ama
teurs." The directors' attitude was agreed
ui.on two weeks ago, accordlr-g to Sec
retary Irving J. French, and was not
influenced by the notification made
public yesterday, that the club had
been refused active membership in the
United States Golf Association.
Th Woodland- Club is now engaged
in preparing a defense for its members,

mittee of the National organization.

17 IXN'INGS GO SCORELESS
Boston and St. Louis Battle Until
Darkness Stops Play.
BOSTON. July 14. Boston and St,
Louis played 17 innings without scor
ing today, the game being called on
account of darkness. The visitors
would have tallied in the 15th had not
Koob failed to touch third base when
he came from second on a drive to left
by Miller. Koob's omission was de
tected and he was tagged by McNally
after Mays had been knocked down at
the plate. Mays was not seriously hurt
Dut he retired from the contest.
The game was largely one of defense
both teams making some pretty plays.
Repeatedly they were in a position to
score, but either the pitchers tightened
up or a brilliant fielding play pre
vented a run. The tie will be played
off as part of a double-header to
morrow.

SKIM
When you see a person with clear skin, flushed only with the
color of perfect health, you will also notice that the skin is soft,
smooth and free from blemishes. There are no pimples, splotches,
humors. It will be true of the face and true of the body. It is a
true indication of rich, red blood coursing through the arteries.
It means that the blood is full of red corpuscles. It would throw
off a minor ailment like a flash, and even a stubborn disease
would hardly prove fatal or lastingly disable such a person. For
the same reason that healthy, clear skin is an indication of pure,
clean blood, blotchy and pimply skin is an indication of a diseased
condition of the blood.
Improper eating and drinking, or vicious habits, or unwise
treatment of personal infections, deteriorate the blood. This effete
matter acts as poisons and the circulation carries these poisons to
the various tissues, especially the skin. Then the blood begins
to throw off the humors and acids through the pores and glands
of the skin, producing Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum
and skin eruptions of various kinds.
Eczema appears, usually with a slight redness of the skin, fol
lowed by postules from which there flows a fluid that dries and
forms a crust, and the itching is intense. It is generally on the
back, breast, face, arms and legs. In tetter, the skin dries, cracks
and. bleeds ; the acid in the blood dries up the natural oil of the
skin, causing a dry, feverish condition. Acne makes its appearance
on the face in the form of pimples and blackheads, while Psoriasis
comes in scaly patches on different parts of the body. A very
common form of Skin Disease also is Salt Rheum.
The best way to handle skin diseases is to purify the blood
with S. S. S. and thus enable it to do its work properly. S. S. S.
removes these humors from the blood so that the skin, instead of
being irritated and diseased, is nourished by a supply of fresh,
healthy blood. External applications of salves, washes, lotions,
etc., while they may soothe the itching caused by the skin affec
tions, cannot cure the trouble because they do not reach the blood.
S. S. S. goes down into the circulation and forces out the for
eign matter and restores the blood to its normal, pure condition,
enabling it thereby to relieve the skin affection. S. S. S. is for
sale at all first-class drug stores. Don't take a substitute. Eook
