He will no doubt work hard from now on so as to be in the very pink of conditios.” Willard is not going to take on Jack for the purpose of making any money because he had made plent in the oil business during the pa year or so. He is simply going into the match to prove that he is a bet- ter man than Dempsey and absolute- ly thinks he is Jack's master, Of course I think Jack will lick him again, but I really believe that Wil- lard will make a better showing this time." Asked when the match would be ield, Kearns repited that he felt “cer- tain that Jack would like one or two Jack Kearns, Demp- being Brennan, so you see he will have a busy time of it in the early fall.” RUNS FOR THE WEEK Ju 4—10 National Leagu B W 9 713 0 11 8 e B 8 Tt New York Brooklyn Boston Phila'phia Pittsburgh Cincinnati 1 3 X Chicago St. Louis Mok o 8 14 4 American League 5 MoT Wl Ryt New York Boston Phila'phia Washington Detroit Cleveland Chicago £t.

St. Louis, June 16.—A broken blood vessel in the right leg has forced the St. Louis Browns' most consistent pitcher, Urban Shocker, out of the game, it became known today. With the club but a half game behind the leading Yanks, Shocker's loss is felt heavily. He was injured at Chicago in the Browns' last series of a long trip, but gamely insisted he be worked | in his regular turn until an infection | caused the club physician to order him to remain idle until the Browns start their second invasion of the e WOULD SIGN COLLEGE STAR Seeks Services of Pitcher Blume of Colgate for Giants Hamilton, N.

The Annex baseball club, hailing from New Haven, will oppose the Kaceys next Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock at St. Mary's field. Out of the FElm City will come the Annex team with an excellent reputation, and a record that the followers of the team are proud of this season Among “the victims of the Annex club this season, is the New Lon- don Naval Base nine, which was beaten 6 to 4. The sailors had pre- viously attained quite a rep, in de- feating several fast teams, including the Harvard varsity. Visitors Beaten Only Twice. The Annex team has been beaten only twice this season, Torrington do- ing the trick 8 to 5, and the New De- parture team ‘“took' the New Haven- ers 3 to 2 in a whirlwind battle. t Sunday, the Annex team wal- loped Harry Noyes' White City team to the tune of 14 to 0. The Ludlow, Mass., team was also defeated recent- ly by the Annex. Will Use Regular Lineup. In the lineup of the visitors Sun- day will be found a collection of clever ball players. Hickey, of Yale, will hold down the shortfield position. Hanlon, a former Georgetown star, will guard the initial sack, and with Austin, the peerless third baseman and Galligan, at second, a stonewall infield is what the New Haven man- ager claims to have. In the outfield is Caseman, C. Leach and Bradford Connors will do the hackstop duty, and J. Leach, a former Eastern leag- uer, will be on the mound. The Kaceys have put in a busy week of practice, and are reported in fine fettle by Manager Frank J. Mc- Conn. The boys feel pretty good over the victory won from the Winsted team last Sunday. Crean is O. K. Again. Just who will do the hurling for the locals has not been decided on as yet. Gerry Crean, who has been “un- der the wraps” for two weeks, re- ports being in excellent shape, and in readiness to take his turn on the mound The home team will probably start the game with the lineup that won over Winsted. The manner in which the team worked last Sunday satisfied both the management and the fans. Eddie Crowley will hold the indica- PREPARE FOR TOURNEY Golf Links At Skokie Country Club Being Put Into Shape For the Na- tional Open Golf Championship. Chicago, June 16.—Arrangements for handling the national open golf championship are in preparation by the Skokie Country club, whose links from July 10 to 15 will be the scene of probably the greatest international golf contest ever staged. Most of Great Britain's best professionals and amateurs and all of the leading golfers of America, as well as the champions of Australia, China and possibly Ja- pan, will compete for the title now held by James Barnes of New York. The links are in fine shape with perfect turf and Chairman John Ling has arranged some remarkably fine tees from which the player can get every thrill possible to golfdom. The important task of getting the results of the contest to the rest of the world will be in the hands of I'red W. Hill who is arranging for a press headquarters to house more than 100 men. Wires are being strung to the club house in the western edge of Glencoe, a suburb, 20 miles north of Chicago on Lake Michigan. Type- writers and all other facilities will be in readiness, with score boards so ar- ranged that the press men can have unobstructed use of the tally sheets. BLACK SOX BARRED Fox River League Directors Will Not Tolerate Them. Oshkosh, Wis,, Jure 16.—The Fos River Valley Baseball league hai definitely barred from its clubs all baseball outlaws, John F. Kluwin, president, announced today after a meeting of the directors. Concerning the playing of the play- ers, Mr Kluwin stated: “Had their contracts been submit- ted to me they would never have been approved. What incentive there to a ball player to remain hon- est if we put a premium on dishon- esty by permitting outlawed men, who have heen driven from the big leagues for alleged dishonesty, to come into the league and perhaps re- ceive higher salaries than the men whom they replaced, and who were absolutely loyal and honest? The di- rectors agreed to a man that the Black Sox players shall never play in a league game nor at a league park.” e —— is PSETS ALL YOUR OLD PDEAS AlOUJESHAVING T e N 922 Baseball in Brief NATIONAL LEAGUE, Results Yesterday.

Jim Kernan, star Yale catcher, re- ported to the club here yesterday. For Britton, Lightweight Champ Faces Greatest Period of His Career, With Chance to Win Welterweight Title, and Also a Possibility of Losing His Present Crown New York, June 16.—A new fight- ing record is about to be hung up to dry by Benny Leonard, prince of the royal family of pugilism who began today to dust off his armor like a plumed knight in preparation for jousts with three of the toughest op- ponents in the business within the extremely short space of 32 days. Tex Rickard has worked out two- thirds of the original design and Floyd Fitzsimmons has manipulated the other third. Jack Britton, world's welterweight champion, Lew Tendler of Philadelphia and Rocky Kansas, of Puffalo, are the trio who will fill it out, A Rich Prize The three bouts within a month will net Benny about a quarter of a million dollars, and, if he can find the button when he steps into the ring with Britton, he will step out the welterweight champion of the world, the fourth fighting man since Napoleon to hold two championships. As Britton will not be down to 135 pounds, Leonard's lightweight coro- net will not be in danger. Leonard's summer season will open June 26, at Jersey City, with Britton in a no-decision bout. Eight days later he will meet Rocky Kansas at Michigan City, Indiana, in an Inde- pendence Day battle for his crown, and on July 27 he will be back in New York in a championship go with Tendler, recognized as the most for- midable of the contenders. After that he may rest for a while. No modern champion has such a record. Everything To Gain Leonard has all to win and nothing to lose with Britton—for whom the opposite is true; Leonard has only his reputation and not his title at stake when he meets Kansas, though the Ttalian may be surprisingly better; but with Tendler he is taking 2 chance. Champs of Two Classes Only three men have held more than one title a long time in boxing history—Bob Fitzsimmons, Terry Mc- Govern and Johnny Buff. Leonard, who is 26, has fought two previous no-decision bouts with Brit- ton, who is nearly 38 Tendler is but 24 and has been box- ing since 1916 when he was peddiing papers in Philadelphia. Both he and Leonard have defeated Kansas, so the Buffalo man is not considered seriously in the running.
