The latest developments last night, have left the status of the six club loop in considerable uncertainty. Fi nancial troubles have been common during the season, resulting In nu merous transfers of memberships and teams. Members of the Independence club, irked at non-payment of back salaries, left Hutchinson last night an hour before game time and for feited the contest to the Wheat Bhokers.

This move follow ed transfer of the Joplln franchise to Topeka. After a short stay at Joplln the Independence club was returned to Independence, and It was announced that the players had agreed to do without regular salar ies and play for a division of gate receipts.

Because of the thrill ing match between this pair at the fairgrounds on the night of July 4, a big crowd is expected here tne coming Tuesday night. In Portland tonight Doc Nelson will attempt to take Reed's title away from him. Reed, who ordinarily observes the proprieties of the ring, let his tem per get the upper hand on him last night and assailed Referee Verne Harrington in the second round when Harrington reprimanded him for pulling Finnegan's hair. The ref eree came back at the wrestler and the two tussled for a minute, Har rington ordering out of the ring an official who attempted to talk sense to them. Reed took the first fall from Fln negan with a whip wrlstlock in 33 minutes. After 17 minutes of the sec ond round Flnnegan made Reed sur render to a surfboard. Reed took the third fall with a body slam In 11 minutes after he had used his op ponent up with a series of shoulder butts. In the first match Jones llterallly wore his younger opponent out, showing the same remarkable en durance that is one of his athletic assets. He took the first fall In 37 minutes with a Sonnenberg. Jones yielded to Salisbury when, after nine minutes of the second round, the Salt Lake boy tortured him with a double stepover toe hold. Jones won the third In four minutes with whip wrlstlocks. several substitute lettennen have been lost to the squad. Many men will be seen In the lineup the com ing season.

Then for a time the ball and the car travplprt on even term sbut fnally the car pulled gradually away. Times with stop watches were posted along the testing course to clock both ball and car at various stagess. Counting only the distance in flight, the ball traveled 230 yards in 4.5 seconds and the automobile covered the same distance In 4.1 seconds.

Al Spohrer Too Quick; Opponent Gets Last Laugh Chicago, July 13 W Al Spohrer, the Boston Braves' baldheaded catcher, probably will pick his spots hereafter when he laughs on a base ball field. Spohrer got large amuse ment when the lady fans cheered Pat Malone as the Cub pitcher went to bat with two out In the ninth inning yesterday.
