Bill Clymer, » has been a great success as a leader if one turns the ball standing upside down, is on the pan. In fact, the has been brewing for a long time. The fact that Seattle has let out a troop of players d as failures only to see castoffs rise in their wrath look like wonders with some other club, is one of the fs that is getting the goat of Seattle fandom. As for those “Clymer” mysteries, only two explana- is are possible. Either Bill is the victim of baseball ck or the players won’t play their best for him. fy Take the cast off Walter Mails. Walter couldn't have |a ball game from a team of one-armed Eskimos when in a Seattle unie but as soon as he gets in a Sacra- suit he starts to win.

TH Guy THAT HAD TH’ YACHT, AN’ BRANK NOTHIN’ BUT Bees Wallop — BY LEO H. LASSEN With the big interest that has piled up in the threecushion billiard game here recently it is hoped that In the near future it will be possible to have a city championship tourney played. There is a host of good angle players in the city and such a tour ney would be a big boost for the game. Brown & Halen have promised to stage such a session for a long time, but no action has been taken. Let's get under way. Willie Meehan, the Fat Boy from San Francisco, Is willing to meet Young Hector any time and any place, according to word received from California. It would be an Interesting match and would at least decide the heavyweight title of the Coast. In spite of the fact that Willie is no Jack Dempsey he is one of the greatest cards in the game and would go big here. His main claim to fame is his showing with Jack Dempsey, whom he de- feated in a fourround fight recently. Of course he cannot be ranked with Dempsey, but he would match up well with Hector, It would be a nice stroke of business for one of the group of local promoters if they could put the match over, Playground baseball is fast becoming a big sport on the play- fields of Seattle. Played with a 1tinch baseball and 50-foot bases the game is fast and yet easy to play. A league made up of the various playgrounds of the city is in progress at the present time and some fast games have been played in the city circuit. The game is of such a nature that the young men who have to work during the day may play it without extensive practice or the dan ger of injury of regulation baseball, Of all the work accomplished by the Y. M. C. A. here it ts @oubtful whether any branch is more valuable than the camps on Orcas Island for young boys.

OAKS GET RASPBERRY Outfelder Billy Lee, Second Baseman Clyde Wares and In- flelder Bill Stumpf heard the rat- tle of the tinware in Oakland yes- terday. The addition of Guisto and Grover have been given as the reason for their release; both of the former big leaguers are playing good ball for the Oaks. With the Seattle team in poor condition, the locals could use Bill Stumpf, and Clymer will undoubtedly sign him up, Seattle having already signed Wares. Oakland has been hitting the chute lately and is now in sev- enth place, but are right on the heels of the Beavers. The injury to Hack Miller, the star Oak out- fleider, marked the descent of Oakland into the second division. WATCH THUSE TIGERS GO Detroit moved into second place in the American league yesterday.

Ad Thatcher, Toledo promoter, leased a hotel for $25,000 to take care of late arrivals among the news- paper men. Only 19 of them lodged with him and only five of that num- ber paid. Another local aggregation rented a huge bullding and installed 2,200 cots for fight fans. For the most part they went unoccupied. Less than 20,000 persons paid to see the bout. After Tex Rickard paid off all bills he declares he and his partner, Frank Flournoy, made considerably leas than $100,000. The motion pictures were. a loss. Ohio censors wouldn't allow them to be shown, and federal laws bar their shipment into other states, Jack Dempsey received $27,500 for his end.
