Eighteen innings,-five. t Seventeen innings, five. Sixteen innings, eight. ! Fifteen; Innings, IS. The Pacific Coast league boasts of two 24-innlng struggles, San Francisco defeating Oakland in a two dozen frame struggle June 8, 1909, and Portland and ; Sacramento battling each other to a tie ' In the him number of lanlnga Steptem ber 10, 1911. In the; Portland-Sacramento game, Klroer Koestner and Jack Fitzgerald were the opposing pitchers. Fitzgerald held the. Portland club to 10 bingles in the 24 innings, not allowing a. single bit from the fifth to the sixteenth Inning.' Koestner held Sacramento to a dozen bingles. v .:-. W IX.LI AJH S A HEEO - Portland scored Its run in the fourth inning on Buddy Ryan's walk, an Infield out and a two-base hit by Tommy Shee han. Sacramento tied the count in, the sixth frame ton Patsy O'Rourke's single and a long double by Danzig. Jimmy Wiggs held the Seals to 11 hits In this game. while the Oakland club was able to collect but nine off Hen ley's delivery.. In the San Francisco-Oakland game, as well as in i1 the Portland-Sacramento battle, there was some very remarkable "fielding. ''). . The next longest-game in the league ' was played this season, Seattle triumph ing over Los i! Angeles in a 22 inning struggle, 12 to 8. Unlike the 24 Inning struggles, neither twirler which started on the mound in this game finished. InU911, Los Angeles and Sacramento played a 21 inning 4-all game, Halla for the Angels and Baum for Sacramento going, the full route. TWo 20 inning games have been played, San Francisco beating Portland on the Vaughn street grounds in 1908, 6 to 5, with Harry Suter of the Seals and Jack Graney of the Beavers as the opposing pitchers..

The Amer ican polo team, rapidly rounding Into top form, is beginning to create - con sternation among British sportsmen who have watcher the players working out on the various playing fields this spring. f i r ', The Americans hold practice daily, and this practice, 'sporting writers declare, Is making them whirlwinds. As an in dication of the strength of the organi zation. In the first match on Knglish soil the visitors rolled up 14 points to 1 for Hurlingham, their "test" opponents. In this game the invaders displayed dash and brilliancy tn riding- and hitting that brought excited comment from the spec tators. They scored three goals in the first four minutes of play, with Stod dard playing at No. 1, Rumseys usual place. And Rumsey Is far more accu rate even than Stoddard. Plenty of Competition A total of 78 games were played in this season's renewal of the famous Eng lish cup soccer competition. It is run on the lose and out plan. Tottenham Hotspurs lifted the trophy. The series of games between the foremost teams drew over 2,000,000 spectators, who paid nearly 11,000,000 to enjoy the sport. i Iaclr.

In chest, biceps, wrist, waist -and every other measurement. The American title bolder will have an, advantage of approximate ly IS pounds in weight, the fighting weight of Dempsey being 190, 172. Dempsey Is the taller of the two, the tapeline reading 6 feet challenger Is only 5 feet lljnches talL In chest measurements Dempsey's figure Is 42 Inches and Car pentler's 40. Dempeey'a advantage is more pronounced around the waist, the measurement being 32 1 Inches for the American and and forearm are 9 inches and inches. Dempsey's neck measures 17 inches and Carpentier' a 16 14. The American also outclasses his opponent in foot 'measurements, Dempsey's thigh being 23 inches to 22 Inches for Carpentier; his calf 15 Inches to 14 Yx inobesT" for the challenger and his ankle 8 inches to 8 indies for the European champion. Jim Corbett May Referee Title Battle jEW TORK,. May 7. (U. P.) With the naming of the site and the date for the Dempsey-Carpentler scrap; the next important detail Is the selection of a referee. : The champion and the challenger will be allowed to decide upon the third man in the ring from a list of six prominent ring figures listed In the original agreement. ... ; six iir ntnnvnf o James J. Corbett, James Jeffries, James Dougherty, Robert KdgTen, Otto Kioto land Bill Brown comprise the list of candidates. Recently it has been reported that this list is not binding and that Jim Coffroth might be named. The choice of the principals is subject to the approval of Tex Kickard, pro moter, of the bout. 1 f ' While Rickard has not opened his mouth on the question, it is understood he favors Corbett. The former heavy weight champion Is a very popular man, has a big name in 'the sport and his presence in the ring would be a step farther in Rickard's plan to make the show the greatest in history. IS HXxn HIGH - r . Corbett is high in the esteem of Car pentier and De scamps but this may cause disfavor in the Dempsey camp. n The same may be said of Bob Bdgren, former sport editor of the New York Evening World, who is a personal friend of the champion, which may cause him to be opposed in the French fold. Bill Brown perhaps is the least known of the sextet out of New York. He is a prominent referee with long experience in the ring. He Is reported to be Governor Miller's choice for the chair of the new state boxing 1 commission- The other candidal fin nre.-wUn"owu,sbyt are not so prominent. " v ! WANTS FBE3TCH JUDGat "Any one of the officials suggested would be satisfactory to us," Jack Kearns, manager of the champion, said. De scam pa' attitude is not known, but Victor Breyer, Rickard's Paris agent, recently cabled here that De scamps had suggested to him it would not be a bad idea to have a Frenchman for one of the judges. Under the no-deelsion regulations which prevail in New Jersey much of the responsibility will be removed from the shoulders of the referee. Judgment In counting and accuracy of the eyes In detecting fouls will be the most import ant requisites.

The International league (formerly Eastern league) Is 30 years old and has developed many crack baseball players. A Hamilton (Ont.)

Pennsylvania State, with 10 consecu tive victories. 1 and Holy Cross, with seven triumphs jand a 12-inning tie with Georgetown stand out as possible con tenders for,-the Eastern collegiate- base ball title " Dempsey May Box Brennan Return Bout r By Jack Teleek N EW YORK. May 7. (I. N. S.) Jack Dempsey is marking time these days, waiting for his coming battle, with Georges Carpentier to roll around July 2. Since he won the. title, Dempsey has done a lot of marking time. His bouts with Billy Miske and Bill Brennan have been the only ones of any importance in which he has ! appeared, and Manager Kearns has often lamented the fact that opponents have been so scarce. 3TOT TO BE LOXESOME Dempsey will not be such a lonesome champion In the future, however, if pres ent indications do not go amiss. There are several heavyweights eager to min gle with Jack who are merely waiting until after the Carpentier bout. , ' If Dempsey beats the Frenchman and he will be a ringside favorite he will have only a short time- to rest, up before he must start training for his Labor day affair with Jess Wlllard. Tex Kickard has this match sewed up and means to go through with lt- In addition to Wlllard. there is talk of a return bout between1 Dempsey and Bill Brennan. Fred Fulton Is also on the trail of the champ, and Bob Martin and Bob Roper are coming on. Harry Greb is another battler who insists that he wants a chance at Dempsey, : but it would seem that in the face of Greb's recent attitude toward a match with Tommy Gibbons he must be joshing the public. : . PROSPECTS ARE MA3TY Greb was offered a bout with Gibbons by Dave Driscoll, the demon Jersey City promoter. Driscoll wanted Sir Tom and the Pittsburg battler the worst way and was prepared to give them a liberal slice of the gate. But Greb wouldn't see it. He told Driscoll he would rather have Gibbons in Pittsburg, where "we could draw much better." Still on the trail of Greb, Brennan, Martin and the champion himself. Tom my Gibbons goes on his way, merrily knocking off opponents the promoters are able to get for him. He has disposed of three men in four rounds in his last three bouts up to this writing, beating Al Reich in one, Paul Sampson In two and Sergeant Norcross in one. With such a heavyweight championship pros pect as Gibbons coming on and the Car pentier and Wlllard matches in view, the curly-headed champion will have an op portunity to make quite a profitable thing out of bis -title. Promoters of the annual Berwick. Pa-, Mara than run annually Thanksgiving day - over a nine-and-a-quarter mile course are planning to Increase the dis tance at the next renewal. I ''"X - iVain.! in.

N. S.) Stars, .who dazzled the eyes of baseball fans eleven years ago are twinkling once more, the brand of baseball that triumphed in the Na tional league pennant race and the world series of 1909 is being felt to day fn the senior major league. Babe Adams and Mooney Gibson are responsible. This famous old Pirate battery Is the brains of the 1921 Pitta burg team which ' leads the league to day with a percentage of .800. ADAMS ATS INSPIRATION , With the season a little over three weeks old. the fast-going Pirates have lost but three games ' out of 15 played up to date and wnle baseball critics in general predicted 1 nice things for Gib son's team, no one was daring enough to say it would be leading the league at this stage. i, . The pitching of Babe Adams has been as much an inspiration to the members of Pittsburg's hurling staff as It has been a surprise to random. , No one dreamed that the once 1 great "Babe1 could stage a wonderful come-back. But he has done it and Is doing it. Adams' presence Mn i the Pittsburg Hneun is valuable because of the aid he can give Gibson in the capacity of first lieutenant and It Is a certainty that these foxy old battery mates are working together in mapping out Pitts- b lire's battle campaign ; Just as tney once worked on the mound and behind the bat. r ...
