Murdoek put up a great fight 1aat

crowd, which booed the butcher boy
continuously for unorthodox tactics.
Murdoek aaya he will take the veteran

been arranged to satisfy the demand
of fans, aa well aa Murdoek.
How to get another referee Is pm-

Tall Arkansan Again Allows
Foemen Single Hit Vic
tory Puts Chicago Outfit
at. Top of the League
By HUGH S. FL'LLERTON, Jr.
(Associated Press Sports Writer.)
Those who predicted the Chicago
Cubs would have to rely upon their
tremendous slugging power to get
into the National league pennant race
evidently overlooked Lonnle Warn eke,
the tall rlghtander from Mt. Ida. Ark.
He has pitched two games so far
this season, won them both and al
lowed Just two hitsrone each to Cin
cinnati and St. Louis.
Following up his opening day per
formance against the Reds, Warneke
turned In the same feat against the
Cardinals yesterday as the Cubs won
the weirdest kind of game by a 15
to a score. The only blow Lonnle
allowed was a double by Jim Collins
In the fifth which led to the two St.
Louis runs.
Puts Cubs at Top.
The victory gave the Cuba the lea
gue lead as the champion Giants suf
fered their season's first setback at
the hands of the Braves. The score
was d-5 aa Boston rapped Freddy
Fltzalmtnons freely and held onto its
early lead even after Homer Peel bit
a pinch homer In the ninth.
The Brooklyn Dodgers handed the
Phillies their sixth straight defeat.
7 to 0, collecting their winning runs
on a four-run outburst against George
Darrow in the eighth. The Pirates
nosed out Cincinnati, 5-4, In tne
other National league contest.
A crowd, rather than any particular
game, furnished the American league
feature. The Boston Red Sox, who
have been gunning for attendance
records ever since the season started,
drew a paid attendance of 4.631 to
Fenway park to see them take an 8
to 1 licking from the Yankees and
Lefty Gomez. Some 6.000 more were
turned away as the Sox had reached
a new mark of 145,000 for six home!

HAPPY RETURNS
This week marks the birthday of the first
American newspaper
JOHN CAMPBELL, colonial postmaster of Boston, certainly set a (rood
example in the in the liberal use of the mails.
Campbell corresponded regularly with all the Colonial Governors of New
England, keeping them posted on Boston news. So regular and voluminous
was this correspondence that Campbells letters finally emerged in the form
of a printed pamphlet called "The Boston News Letter." And this was the
first regularly and continuously published newspaper in America, appearing
weekly from the last week in April, 1704, to the signing of the Declaration
of Independence.
The newspaper carried advertisements . . . from its very first issue I
And this advertising, telling the reader where to obtain the goods that he
sought for his home or his farm or his business, lifted the mere friendly
chronicle of village affairs into the realm of a service to the community.
The news-letters, plus advertising, became a helpful, informative, and educa
tional institution.
Today, as in 1704, and all the years between, the advertisements are your
guide-posts to honest, dependable merchandise at a fair price.

"On the back side of Sugar Loaf
the wind died down and I managed to

I avoided a low crouch until I got
