This tournament will be the last boxing program at the fort this season. The final show had been sched- uled for June 14. The change in date was made to conform with the change of plans of the commanding eral, Harry A. Smith, of the eventh Corps Area, who will make his annual inspection here. Smith Is an ardent follower of the fistic fame and has expressed his desire b witness the final tournament. Busy Arranging Plans Lt. H. C. Jones, athletic director 1s now arranging plans. He thinks the last scraps of the season will be the best because several teams will be attempting to win the pennant which is now almost within the grasp of Company The teams will use all their ilable reserved strength in the final stretch of the meet. Members of the squads have been undergoing strenuous training since the last post smoker and from all appearances the fights should go the limit. Fast Bouts Promised Ten fast bouts will probably be lanned. Only competitors who ave shown here previously and pres their right to be carded will given an opportunity to partici- pate.

It will be the locals’ sixth game. The All-Nations team is made up of men of all races and nationalities, Indians, Cubans, Chinese, Japanese, Negroes, and others.

In spite of Jamestown’s brilliant record so far, Churchill feels that Bismarek should whip them here next Sunday if the Grays play their usual brand of good bascball.

Rides Popular Choice Epsom, England, June 5—(?)— The sporting world today turned its attention to Epsom Downs where the season’s choice three-year olds fight it out in the historic derby to- morrow. Twenty three slim colts will struggle for supremacy over the irregular course of a mile and a half while prince and commoner for- get the difference in rank for the day at least. favorite, so far as expert opinion goes, is Fairway, owned by Lord Derby after whose ancestor the ancient classic is named. Lord Derby’s bay beauty has been hailed by the experts as a racing machine possessing great qualities of limb and heart. Astride the favorite will be ‘Tommy Weston, who rode Fairway to victory in the New Market stakes, traditionally regarded as the gate to success in the great Epsom race.

ILLEGALLY PITCHED BALL What on a ball the pitcher while off the rub- ber; in other words, an illegal- ly pitched ball? pereiiiies thay arise that is delivered by can arise from such an act on the part of the pitcher. If, with runners on the bases the pitcher delivers the ball to the bat- ter, while off the rubber, it shall be ruled a balk and all runners shall be entitled to advance one base. Since the calling of a balk suspends play, no further action is possible. Tf, with no one on the bases, the pitcher delivers the ball to the bat- \ter, while off the rubber, the um- \pire shall call it a ball, regardless of whether or not it is a perfect strike. If, however, the batsman elect: to strike at such an illegally deliv- ered ball, it shall count either for a strike or whatever play may follow. In other words, by striking at the ball the batter removes the illegality of the pitch. In the first two situations a ball delivered by the pitcher while off the rubber is regarded as illegal. With runners on, the penalty is a balk, with the bases empty it is a ball, regardless of how perfectly the ball may be pitched. In the third situation, striking at it makes the pitch: legal. however, has so much faith in Don- skill that it is certain Gan; will be as closely watched as any colt in the race.

He says he is a good hitter. “Freck” started playing ball when he was 10 years old, he says, and has played first base ever since.

He missed only one game last year when he was on his two-weeks vacation at the farm of his grandfather, C. A.

He hasn’t missed a game this year and he is just ns faithful to the team in victory and defeat as the manager. , . The boy was \> christened Orlando and he will enter the eighth grade.

FANS ARGUING SUPREMACY OF 2 BEST WOMEN Helen's Walkaway Victories Have Brought Up Old Lenglen Argument Paris, June 5—@)—The victory of Helen Wills in the French interna- tional hardcourt tennis champion- ships and the ease with which she dominated all competitors in captur- ct. ling the title without the loss of a single set today revived the contro- versy as to the relative skill of the ele girl and Suzanne Leng- len. The admirers of Suzanne—and there are many left—pointed out that Helen dropped on the average of three games a match while Suz- anne was accustomed to disposing of her opponents in the early rounds without permitting them to score. Close friends of Miss Wills said she had an aversion to winning love sets and did not desire to take ad- vantage of an obviously weaker ad- versary, therefore she applied pres- sure only when necessary. Neutral observers who have watched both players for many years asserted that never has Suz- anne dominated a tournament with greater superiority than Helen did at the one just ended at Auteuil. The opinion of ten experts summed up tl “Helen lacks the killer instinct which made Suzanne so impressive against poorer players, but the American is now just as effective as Lenglen ever was against first lass opposition.” , CROP REPORT The grain crops of the Northwest, as a whole, have not made satisfac- tory progress during the past week, according to the weekly crop report. n company of Minneapolis. re have been no general rains, but a few local showers the pate few days.

The objective in this in- stance is the attainment of an un- broken storm of laughter and the two doughboys, like the marines, have the situation well in hand. Unlike the great war pictures now current, “Two Arabian Knights” does not attempt to mir- ror the conflict and its sadness, nor to point a moral. The war is stressed but little and that for its humorous incidents only, and then, at the close of conflict, these two natural enemies of an infantry com- pany, the “top kick” and a “buck” private, find themselves thrown to- gether unwilling in a series of sit- uations that make them “buddies” top of film popularity has been phe- nomenal, plays the stellar role, that of a rich young soldier who falls in love with an Arab maid of high rank, after peculiar circumstances at the close of the war have placed the doughboys in her land.

Her final awakening to the natu- ral reactions of her sex provides a highly unusual and dramatic plot.
