When they pitched at Bend Sunday, they had to work against the dUiid vatituges of a high altitude and thin nt monnliere in whieh t he curves wouMn't break right. When they piteh against the Wichita tiirU' team here Saturday, they will have to keep their mind on their pitrhintr and strive to forget that the girls' team boants some of the middle wests best looking gals, Up to this point, the fact there are some good lookers on the ichita squad has not been revealed, Rut Ivnn Van Blarrom. manager of the famous girls clnb, hns come through with the information that h has one beauty cnnlest winner on his team, and several nthprs who could probably win if they'd forget their baseball and' go in for beautv contests instead. Corena Jaax, outstanding star of the club, won the beauty con test In the National Girls basket ball tournament held In Wichita In 1930. Miss Jaax doesn't let her looks Interfere with her op ponents, however, as she Is con vinced she can hit the cleverest offerings of any man pitcher In baseball. "All I want." she declarer! recentlv. is a cnance to step up and get smncK at me nail, i lorcet tlinl. 1 m n girl and only remember thnt 1 want to hit. the hall out of tho park." That opinion, says Van Blrcom, is iiiriiiii-Hi io inoe oi nrer v v. en Champlnin and Mary Harris, out fielders, who lt just lehind "mur- dorera row" in the lineun. Thev hoth dec In ml they would be insulted if the opposing pitcher eased up just be cause he was tossing to a feminine player. (Both are swell lookers, ac cording to the manager). "We haven't been trainins for four years," they say, "just to moke eyes at tne piicner when we re in the batters' box. We'd rather try to hit a fast ball than an easy pitch any time." Fans wntchln? can Tell no difference in fielding between the girls nnd their men opponents, according to their manager. Of conrso their long hair and figures lietrar them, but the speed with which they scoop up hot grounders and peg them to first smneks i of semi-pro skill. Myrtle Broekert, second base and l.avon lliir rod, third base, arc unusually adrnt in their positions in fielding. They have played daily during summer months of tho last .several years in their posi tions and nave developed into ciwy fielders. Both girls will be wnlehcd closely by funs in their gnme here.

Members of the Independence club, irked at non-pttyineut of Iwir-k salaries, left Hutchinson Inst night tin hour be fore gftme time and forfeited the con text to the whent-ciiockerK. A futile effort was made by Marly Puriell, producer manager, to prevent the de parture of his charges. Lack of patronage resulted in the transfer of the club, earlier in the season, to Joplin. This move followed transfer of the Joplin franchise to Topeka. After a short stay at Joplin the Independence club was returned to Independence, nnd it was announc ed that the players hud agreed to do without regular salaries and piny for a division of the gate reccipu.

July 13. (U.PJ ien ius that he in, James Joy Johnston of Madison Square Garden went into a huddle with his free-wheeling floating power bruin today and emerged with an idea tin elimination tournament to select a challenger for Jack Shar key's heavyweight championship. "The idea, it came to nie in a flash," Johnston said. "I didn't hardly have to think at all." The flush prob ably came as Johnston was thumbing through the "Life nnd Oeeds ot Tex Kicknrd." a handsome morocco hound volume no boxing promoter would think of being without. For old Tex Kiarted the elimination racket years ago. Theoretically, the elimination busi iicks is n leaultful thing, the perfect method of locnlitig the KLuudoiit chal lenger. The idea is to go out. and cor ral ail the candidates and start ''if iug 'em off tiultz against Zilch. Gil honey ifgatnst Kid Scrum. Blah nuainst Blub, and Who si.; against Whatsis. Winner then meet winners, until there is only nie man standing. Swell on paper, but what a sweet and holv mess when put in practice! Johnston says his tournament is till set. The first go is scheduled for week after next, and will put Ernie Schaaf ,the nimble witted sailor, with Paulino rzcnduii. go!den-t ticked has been from the Basque country. After that will come, eliminations featuring Schmeling, I.ouglit'an. Wal ker, P.aer, I.eviiisky, Hamas, Ret 'luff, Poredu, - Rnimige, Risko and half a dozen oniers. Johnston hasn't arrang ed for these as yet, but is confident there will be no more difficulty than in digging the Panama canal. I'espite Johnston's talk, our guess is that no less than H years would be required to get them all mulched. l'"or tin re nre no soft touches among the candidates, and getting a manager lo risk his meal ticket against any thing but a soft touch these days is very trying indeed. Still, Johnston may be ri;:ht. Heaven knows, the man is a magician. He hnu to I?, to put nearly half u million hucharros into the box office for the SliarkeySchtneling thin g.

He predicted complete success of the tith Olympiad .Inly MO to August 14. praising the work of the Los An geles organizing committee in its preparations.
