New York, Aug. 15.—Dismissal of the protest of the Pittsburgh Nation- als of a New York victory over the Pirates July 27, was announced today by John A. Heydler, president of the National league. The game was pro- tested on the ground that failure of Umpire Klem to call a Pittsburgh batsman out on an infield fly had resulted in a double play by force- out of runners at third and second bases. Mr. Heydler said that no ap- peal could be taken on an umpire’s decision in matters 'of fact and judg- ment and sustained Klem's ruling that the hit ball was not an infield fly. | The ball first hovered over foul ground and then was blown onto fair where Catcher Snyder of New York dropped it after making every effort to catch it. SOLDIER ATHLETE BURIED Former Penn. State Star Killed in ‘War, Lies in U. S. California, Penn., Aug. 15.—Lieut Levi L.

Lamb was also the best wrestler State has yet had, and gained thirteen falls, four decisions, had two draws and lost but two bouts in his four years of collegiate work. He also starred on track with the hammer, shot, javelin and hurdles. T. A. C. TEAM WINS. The T. A.

J., Aug. 15.—Up until yesterday George Duncan and his somewhat, retiring ‘but extremely effi- cient co-star, Abe Mitchell, were firm in their belief that Jerty Travers, the Upper Montclair staf, who formerly held all- the. worth-while, -golfing ti- tles, had wéaved ‘a” spell over them. They had tackled him tiwiceé “during their-soujourn in the- States and each time they had been forced to gcknow- ledge his superioriy, and he and Max Marston had the proud- distinction of being the only players in America who could boast of having performed the feat.” And it was mo idle boast, either, for: severdl- elebrities includ- ing Jock Hutchinson, the possessor of the British open championship em- blem, and Jim Barnes, the national open titleholder, had ‘tried in vain. But yesterday the spell, if ‘such it was, was banished and tha Scottish- ‘English team added another victory to their,fast swelling total over the links of the Upper Montelair Country club in a thirty-six _hole exhibition match against the home club ama- teurs, Travers and Willie Reekie, the latter a former New Jersey champion, by the margin of 3 and 2.

WILLS TS FAVORITE Big Black Man Appears to be Only Boxer at Present to Give Dempsey a Tussle, New York, Aug. 15.—There is not a rosy prospect of a fight for the heavyweight title in the near future. This is du€ entirsly to the lack of a suitable opponent for.Dempsey. The' champion is ready and willing, but there is not a man in sight who would be given a ghost of a'charce against the titie holder. - That is fo say there is not a white man in yiew: Willard could not get into condi- tion for a bout in less than six months and it is questidnable it he would be in condition even then. Tom Gibbons will meed much hard- er tests than have as yet heen applied before being dropped. into the same ring with Dempsey. Bill Brennan has twice been defeat- ed by the champinn. and there is not a frantic desire to see him' again in the arena with the title holder. ‘There is only one man in the,coun- try who would be accepted by the public as a worthy opponent of the champion, ~and unfortunately this pugilist’s skin is black.

Aug. 15.—The members of the Swiss rifle shooting team who have- just returned from Lyons, where they met defeat for the first time in fifteen years at the hands of the American marksmen in the in- ternational rifle shooting tournament last week, complain that the American victory was due to *“special technical apparatus such as field glasses, lenses and padded cushions for resting el- bows and knees, which, especially in firing trom the prone positions, gave the Americans an advantage.” In future the Swiss team will refuse to compete unless the marksmen re- frain from tsing such paraphernalia. —_— GEORGES TO RETIRE Bout With Gibbons His Last, Carpen- tier Says "Boulogne, France Aug. 15.—Georgss Carpentier will bid farewell to the fighting ring after he meets Tom Gib- bons, the St. Paul light heavyweight, in New York next January, camps, the French champion’s mana- ger, announced yesterday.
