Philadelphia ..1 3 2 Chicago 10 0 his general direction. Just goes to show the difference between big league ball and semi-pro ball. . Runners In the big leagues let no grass grow under their feet and lnflelders have to cut loose without aiming and first basemen have to take them any old way. It's a big jump from semi-pro and college ball to the American league and Billy is doing quite well to be in there at alL Billy will stick up there In some position because he can slug, pur other home town boy in the Amer ican league, Howard Maple, faces a different prospect. Just a fair hitter, he's staying on the Wash ington payroll because he can do a lot of catching, and he'll make a place for himself only by becom ing one of the smartest catchers in the business. Howard can do it, but it will be a slower process. And then on the third hand by the way, wouldn't a man with three hands go big in the wrestling trade on the third hand, we say, consider our big-leaguer-to-be, Andy Peterson He'll be up there, but will he be a pitcher or an outfielder? He can do both fast enough to suit anybody. ! Those two prospects are entirely I different. An outfielder who can cover ground and hit finds him self a niche and stays there fcr Hill Billies of Pioneer Defeat Vets of Dallas DALLAS, July 6 The Pioneer Hill Billies' baseball team de- Younger Lincoln Players in Lead Lincoln playground Intermedi ates put themselves in a one-game lead last night when they defeat ed the Ollnger team 21 to IB. With the Ollnger seniors one game ahead, the Lincoln seniors will play at the 14 th street field this afternoon. Robin Reed and Henry Jones will appear in the next wrestling show at the armory but not as adversaries. Reed will meet Pat Flnnegan and ; Jones will tangle with Jack Salisbury, a newcomer from Salt Lake City, In a double main event next Tuesday night. It was announced Wednesday. Appearance of the two men who drove 8000 fans frantic at the fairgrounds Fourth of July night In their title match- which settled nothing excepting that Reed re tained the world welterweight belt, is sure to attract a lot of In terest, especially since they are both matched with capable oppon ents. In addition, the Reed-Finnegan set-to may turn oat to be some thing of a grudge battle, for Reed Is understood to be none too well pleased with Finnegan's perform ance as temporary referee in the title bout, . Just at the moment when Reed had Jones oft the floor in a per fectly good airplane spin which might have resulted In the decid ing fall, Flnnegan happened to get In the way of Jones feet and was knocked for a row". That caused a lull in the wrestling until Verne Harrington could resume the du ties he had suddenly relinquished under somewhat similar circum stances, and when they started grappling again Jones was upright on the mat and not circling In mid-air. Salisbury will be appearing here for the first time,; but brings a good reputation from other cities where he has wrestled. Members of tbe local boxing and wrestling commission saw him beat George Lowe at Eugene recently and give assurance that he will be able to provide Jones with competition. SAN FRANCISCO. July 6 (AP) With air tight support Henderson pitched San Francisco to a 3 to 1 victory over Los An geles today. Henderson scattered six hits he allowed the Angels and pitch ed no hit, no run ball for tbe first four innings.

Boxing Board to Insist 'Expert Do Broadcasting NEW YORK. July 6. (AP) The New York state athletic com mission's decision that none but "boxing experts'' could broadcast accounts of boxin? matches in this state in the future brought statements today from the major networks mildly threatening war and definitely charging "a serious blow at the freedom of broadcasting." "T h e National Broadcasting company always has and always will continue to select its own an nouncers for fight broadcasts," said John F. Royal, vice-presideut in charge of programs.

Brooding because the youthful Page and Cox; Gaston. E. Walsh and baseball player had rejected her attentions. Miss Vlplet Popovich, a pretty brunette, forced entrance into his hotel room, made one final plea for his love and then attempted to commit suicide. Jurges, in a wild lunge for the .22 automatic which the woman pulled from her purse, was shot twice, one bullet struck him In the right side, riccocheted off a rib and came out the right shoul der. The second ripped the flesh about the little finger of his left hand. Miss Popovich was struck by the third shot, which entered the left hand and traveled up the arm six Inches. Relief Pitcher now In Sight; Frisco Edwards may Sign as Manager Rose Winner in Appealed Case In Polk Court DALLAS. July 6 The Jury in circuit court here today returned a verdict favoring the defendant. Rose, In the civil suit of Morey vs. Rose. Allan Carson was attorney for the defense and McKInney and Hayter for the plaintiff. The case was first brought to trial in justice court in West Sa lem, the defense winning the ver dict In that Instance also. Morey appealed to the circuit court, and succeeded In bringing action there. Preparing to meet the Albany Alcos here Sunday in the last . game of the first round of State league play, the Salem Senators are putting in some extra prac tice licks this week and In addi tion are considering some chan ges calculated to strengthen the lineup for this game and the sec ond round which will start tbe following Sunday. The team's principal . weakness so far has been lack of a reserve pitcher, and that need Is expect ed to be filled by the signing of -Doby" Wood. Amity boy. who pitched for Willamette university in the 1131 season and won all but one of his northwest confer ence games. However, the Senators are plan ning to hold a business meeting' after tonight's practice and at that time, it "Is understood, a proposition may be offered to Leo "Frisco" Edwards to take oTer the field manager's job. Frank "Burly" Bashor, present catcher manager. Is In favor of this change, despite the fact that the team under his direction has been rather successful to date. Bashor admits that Edwards knows a good deal more baseball than he does and has the added advantage of knowing most of the hitters the Senator f lingers will face. Whether an arrangement suit able to Edwards can be worked out remains to be seen and there Is no certainty that a change will be made. "Squeak" Wilson, the Solons' regular moundsman who suffered from a sore arm in the last game wun racmc Outfitting but had to stay In there because there was no relief pitcher, rested last week and doctored his arm and is limbering It up regularly this week, so that he should be ready for the taik of stopping the Alco sluggers here Sunday.
