CHICAGO, BROOKLYN WING AGAIN Jack Bentley Tums in Victory for the World Champs As Cards Trounce Pirates; Athletics Take Day Off and Yanks Move Ahead. CHICAGO, June 1.—(By The Associated Press )—In winning their third straight victory over the Chicago Cubs, 3 to 2, Cincinnati advanced to fifth place, two points within St. Louis’ insecure notch in the first division. Brookly.ntrounced Boston, 6 to 2, and kept ahead of the St. Louis Cardinals, who met Pittsburgh and won, 4 to 1. Wheat, leading National league bats- men, fatied to hit for the first time in 21 games. Jack Bentley of New York won his third game out of seven yesterday, beating the weak Philadelphia Quak- ers, 4 to 1. The Philadelphia Athletics were idle, but because of their double de- feat on memorial day they slipped into.third place while Cleveland was trimming Chicago, 5 to 4. The New York Yankees also took advantage of the Athletics’ idleness and advanced farther into the league lead, trouncing Boston, 8 to 1. Wally| Pipp hit safely in his twenty-first consecutive game.

To His Staft GREAT FALLS, Mont., June 1.— —Jack Dempsey, heavyweight champion of the world, returned last night to Great Falls from the Rock Creek bungalow of Charles B. Power, six miles north of Wolf Creek where he has been for the past three days. The trip was a success from @ fishing point of view, the champion having caught a large number of trout, one of them weighing two and a half pounds dressed. Thursday was spent by the Dempsey party in looking over the scenery, the terrific storm of last night haying raised the streams and stopped the trout from striking or even taking bait. Dempsey has added a young eagle to his animal collection, the bird having been taken from a nest on a rock cliff in the vicinity of the Power holdings. ‘This evening Dempsey will go to tho Elk Run ranch-of W. L. Velie in the Highwood mountains as guest of Mr. Velie at a dinner and Mon- day will begin training again. Tommy Gibbons, challenger of the champion in the fight at Shelby July 4, is on his way to St. Paul and is expected back to Shelby Saturday with his family. It 1s now intimated that he may cut out his Canada exhibition trip and be- gin training at once. His training will be done in the new Paris pavilion, 74 by 140 feet in the town of Shelby. EUGENE CRIQU, FRENCH FEATHERWEIGHT, HAS JAW SHOT AWAY AT VERDUN NEW YORK, June 1.—Eugene Cr- qui of France featherweight boxing champion of Europe who meets Johnny Kilbane world champion, in & 15-round title contest at the Polo Grounds tomorrow, has had his great- est pugilistic success since the war, although handicapped by @ recon- structed jaw. old, has been fighting since he was 15,, Before the war he engaged in moré than 100 contests in which he had yaried success, He was a clever boxer, having been trained in the English mould, but failed to rise high- er than the near-champions because of the lack of punching power. Then the war broke out and Criqui went to the front. At Verdun th left side of his jaw was shot away. Many months he !ay fn hospitals, dur- ing which time the rib of a sheep was ed from the hospital as unfit for mil- itary duty. After the close of hostil- itles he went back to pugilism. He had marked success. While he never actually has been knocked out, Criqui has fafled to go the route on three occasions, In 1914 he retired in the twelfth round of a bout wtih Charley Ledoux, French bantam, but last year evened the score by knocking out his country- |man in one round. In 1919, against Tommy Noble, English featherweight champion, Criqu! went nineteen rounds refusing to go on for the twentieth after claiming that @ low blow had dislocated a leg tendon. Later the same year Noble he!d Cri- qui to a draw, while at London the Frenchman refused to continue in a fight with Pal Moora, the American when his claim of foul was disallow: ed in the fourteenth round of a twen- ty round match. Last year Criqut won the Buropean |reather title, knocking out Arthur Wyns, of Belgium and Bitty Mat- thews of*England both clajmants of the champtonship. Wynn took the jcount tn the twelfth and Matthews in |the seventeenth round. Criqu!, a clever boxer and fatrly har@ hitter, also holds the French featherweight crown. He was born August 16 1895 In Paris. The little Frenchman, now 30 years | | Publicity Agent Launches grafted in his face.
