(Kid). Kaplah of Meriden, Conn.,
-world's xeatberweicbt champion,
fought 'a 15-round draw with Babe
Herman of California before a
crowd , estimated at 20,000 at
Brossco Park tonight. t. The - ver
dict rendered by Referee Jack
Fheehan of Boston did not meet
-with -popular favor among the
visiting newspapermen at the ring
Aide, who were almost unanimous
in' their opinion that Herman had
a shade.' r '
" (Except for the last three rounds,
it was a rather tame exhibition,
studded with continual clinching.
dancing and wrestling. Herman
with a close guard, tied the cham
pion at every turn, forcing him
to clinch after his swings went
wild. On the other hand, Kaplan
was not the same fighter who
scored a technical knockout over
Danny Kramer of Philadelphia in
the ninth round, of a 15-round
match In the New York state ath
letic commission's tournament to
name a successor to Johnny Dun
dee, when the littte Italian gave
up the crown. .
Ills characteristic buzz saw tac
tics were missing.. Ilia wild left
was even wilder than usual and
his aggressiveness was discounted
by Herman' supreme generalship.
Herman was by far the cooler..

HONOLULU, Aug. 27e (By As
sociated Press.) The United
States district attorney's office be
gan an invest Igptlon today of tbe
seizure of the racing yacht Eloise
by customs .' officers Wednesday
when they found SO bottles" of
liquor aboard.
Mrs. Jennie Hyde, United States
collector 'of customs.- submitted
facts which are under? vd to
amount to a direct request for the
presecutlon of Commodore John
river, skipper of the Elolse. and
the seizure of the sailing vessel on
charges of violation of tariff, cus
toms and prohibition laws.
If the charges are brought and
sustained In, court, it is asserted
that the Elolse may be declared
forfeited to the United States gov
ernment and be placed in the local
customs service if deemed advis
able. ,
Piver. who Is the commodore of
the San Francisco Yachting club.
of which the Elolse Is the flagship
had declared 18 bottles of the 80
found aboard. He had no permit,
however, to carry medical sud-
plies. The customs officers dis
covered 62 undeclared bott'e In
the nuarters of tbe crew and else
where. f
The Elolse put In hre while re
turning to San Francisco, after
engaging in a race from that citv
to Tahiti. In the Society islands.
.-.Ill luck may. have been follow
ing Connie Mack most of the sea
son .while he waa making his
usual heroic effort to get his new
White Elephants higher than sec
ond . division. Surely he had
enough setbacks, what with Inju
ries to Sammy Gray, Joe Hauser
and half a dozen others, and a
few attacks of the grip and heebee
Jeebees thrown-in.
Cut -right now he is sitting
pretty or was-when this went to
press. For unless you consider
Joe Hauser, Connie has his entire
strength available . right now
Hauser. of course, was placed on
the retired list for tbe balance of
the season some time , ago be
cause the season some time ago
because of injuries. Jimmy Poole
stepped into his shoes and has
made the fans almost forget
Hauser and his big bat.
There is nothing mysterious
about the success of the Athletics
to date. The club, as a ball club,
la hitting at a .300 clip. The pitch
ers are delivering the kind of
pitching expected from big league
hurlers receiving big league pay.
And the fielding is good. .
In addition to. these much-
sought virtues, the club has the
added one of being a harmonious
one.
It's' hard to beat that combina
tion.

tained the; reinstatement of old
Dutch Leonard and his staff seem
ed complete.
But Cole, by the end of the
1921 season had convinced Cobb
he wasn't to be depended upon.
Cobb finally let him go this season;
Neither Whltehill nor Wells bit
a winning gait this season. Tbe
only dependable pitching he has
had from his portside department
has come .from the venerable
Leonard. '
WhitehiU's failure to get. going
this year. was a body blow to the
Tiger hopes. He was the pitching
ace of the team last season.
Those who have been watching
the International league races of
late years say that Earnshaw is
the . best righthander that circuit
has produced In many campaigns.
While Earnshaw is hogging the
righthand honors, -Tom Thomas is
said .to be the cream of the south
paws in the league by many yards
Wally Hood, who was tried out
twice in the majors and found
wanting both times, is booked to
return to the big show next fall
as an outfielder with the St. Louis
Browns. -
The Dodgers were the last ones
to turn Wallie back to the sticks.
Is Tyrus Ttaymond Cobb sick
and tired of lefthand pitchers?
May be. At least he is centering
his efforts right now on landing
some good dependable righthand
ers. He is anxious enough to get
some good northsiders that he is
Kaid to have offered Jack Dunn of

An eastern sport writer, argu
ing, that Ty Cobb has "slowed
up," says it would be impotwible
to state . the . exact number of
games which Cobb has lost this
year through "slowing up. It
would be quite as interesting, in
our opinion, to state the number
of games the Tigers would have
lost without Cobb In the lineup.
Cobb may be slowing up. It
Isn't reasonable to suppose that a
man after 22 years in the big
show would be in his prime.
, But Cobb has not slowed up to
the point where his presence in
