The original All-Nations team of Kansas City has been trav- eling through the northwest during the last few summers. Members of the team are Chinese, Japanese, Cuban, Negroes, and men of other nationalities and races. Every one is a good ball player or her wouldn't be with that team. This team plays in the south during the winter an tours through the North during the warmer months. Jack Has Makings Gesellchen, who pitched for Mer- ter against Bismarck here a short while ago, though he cidn't win, showed that he had the makings of a real pitcher. Churchill expects him to come through in great style after he has iad a chance to work out with the Bismarck crew in a few games. He will have strong sup- rt in the local nine when he makes jis debut Friday. He will be with the local team during the rest of the summer, being employed in the city. The Jamestown game _ should prove to be a hig drawer. The Jim- mies whipped the Grays there Sun- day by a five to four count. The game was good though sloppy in points, and the Bismarck club was plainly off color. Ulmer will prob- ably pitch for the visitors here Sun- day, and if he does as well as he did last time, the game promises to be close. Love, who wa. in bad form in the Jimmie game, promises to be in shape for next Sunday’s game and should take the Jims handily. SENATORS BEAT BROWNS IN ONE BiG LOOP GAME Rain Wreaks Havoc With Ma- jors and Minors; Max Carey Is Suspended S (By The Associated Press) Thirteen postponements have been washed iste the major league cal- endar in the last two days. After halting six of the eight games scheduled on Monday, rain yesterday prevented seven contests. In the only big league game of the day the Washington Senators, aided by home runs by Goslin and ves, beat the .Browns at St. Louis, 4 to 1. Garland Braxton was touched for three hits and the Browns’ one run in the first inn- ing but allowed only four safeties thereafter. The Senators got only eight hits off Jack Ogden, former Baltimore ace, but four of them were for extra bases. Only five hundred persons fay the game, played in a heavy mi Schedules ‘Washed Out Of the twelve games scheduled in the American Association, Interna- tional League and Eastern poe eaty three were played, one &n each ‘ircuit. The New York-Pennsylvania League had its schedule washed out in toto. The Southern Association managed to get two of its four con- tests off the calendar. At Lewisburg, Pa., leaders of the National game gathered to pay trib- ute to one of its most famous, satellites. Presentation was made] to Bucknell university of the Christy Mathewson memorial gateway to the college memorial stadium while Commissioner Landis declared the “big six” was the “man who made baseball truly the National game it is today.” Mathewson, who died in 1925, was graduated from Bucknell before he gained fame as one of the big league’s greatest pitchers. Max Carey Suspended Max Carey, who was playing cen- ter field for Pittsburgh when Mathewson still was a great pitch- er, found himself under a three-day suspension for his vigorous protests against a decision at Brooklyn on Sunday when the Pirates defeated Robins in a 14-inning game.

Flamingo, quoted at 9 to 2, was second a length and a half behind the winner, while Black Watch, quoted at 33 to 1, was third six lengths behind Flam- ingo. It was the 148th running of the great English classic _and the usual great crowd of Eng- lish racing enthusiasts was on hand at the course, some of the spectators having waited 24 hours for favorable positions. Felstead, a bay colt by Spion Kop out of Felkington, is owned by Sir Hugo Cunliffe-Owen. 3 Epsom Downs, England, June 6. —(4)—Thousands of persons today thronged historic Epsom Downs for the 148th running of the derby. Twenty-two crack three-year-olds were entered. The crowd came early and many who did not have the means to buy seats or did not possess automobiles hung over the rails along the course jealously guarding standing room. The most advantageous points had been immediately occupied after the last race of yesterday was run, At that time there was a great rush for the rails and claims were staked with stools and overcoats by men and women who settled down to wait 22 hours for the great event sched- uled for 3 o’clock this afternoon. Other spectators spent the night in tents or in their automobiles and a babel of noises rose throughout prepared. Hardy racegoers, who were unable to command other means of trans- portation, today were coming by foot and aboard bicycles along the numerous roads converging on Ep- 'som Downs and the crowd was gradually swelling to enormous dimensions. Indications were that a quarter of a million persons would see the race. Two French Entries Lord Rosebery’s stables at Dur- dans, near the Downs, housed not only the Rosebery Colt, Camelford, but also Lord Derby’s wane the favorite; Flamingo, and Bubbles II, one of tke two French entries. Twenty foot and six mounted police watched the horses or slept close by. It was figured that half a million} pounds had been wagered on these four horses alone and that three mil- lions were at stake either in wagers or sweepstakes on all the horses entered. Fairway remaimed the overwhelm- ing choice of the experts but fa orites do not always win.

In that one game, however, Columbus knocked Kansas City out of undisputed possession of second place, forcing the Blues into a tie with the Milwaukee Brewers. Columbus won 6 to 2 after four con- secutive walks in the third inning had netted what proved to be a safe lead of three runs. Three fast double plays by the Senators cut down rallies by the Blues, who out- hit their victors 12 to 11. Indianapolis and St. Paul started their game bit rain caused sation of hostilities in the third with the tribe leading 2 to 0. All other games were postponed on account of either wet grounds or rain. THREE APPEAL PLAYS In plays where a baserunner fails to touch a base, where a runner leaves his base too soon on a fly ball that is caught, or where a player bats improperly, what should be the attitude of the umpire? | q In_ baseball “the three situations | cited are known as appeal plays. Even if the umpire is aware of the| |mistake, be must overlook same vn- less the team ia the field makes the proper play and requests a rul- ing on the matter. It is not unusual for players to! fail to touch the bases in their on a caught fly and bat out of order. In all probability they get away with it more often than they are discovered and penalized. The position of the umpire in a ball game is merely the judge of plays. He is there to give decisions, not to make plays. When a player fails to touch a base, leaves a base tod soon or bats out of order, it is up to the team in the field to observe such slips. It calls for alert heads up baseball. If the team is playing such base- ball, it will profit by having the runner or batsman declared out for failing to. observe the rules of the game. I€ the umpire made rulings on such plays it would remove the pre- mium that goes to the alert team or individual, would place she slow thinker and poor observer on the same plane with the smart player. At various times it has been sug- gested that the umpire be author- ized to act on such plays without appeal, but it never got very far. It would be an unwise move, as it would destroy initiative on the part of the player and make more trouble for the umpire, who already has plenty. on one (very modest in ‘ould have In 1910 he e brougt home aa pod repeated later with Crusader.

A club tournament, built along the elimination plan, is planned for some time this month, but du> to conflictions in programs of some of the club members, the dates have not been definitely set. The club has 45 members. arted in 1923, the club members have given particular attention to the placing of traps and bunkers on the urse, The course is laid in a par- hilly district and in several jinstances sharp hills separate the tees and the : reens.
