PANS BOTH MEN “NOT MUCH CHANCE” Swim Meet Veteran Water —e to Handle Star gram; Entries ca BY TOM OLSEN “Dad” Henry, well known local swimming enthusiast, will have com- plete charge of The Star city ewim- ming meet to be staged the latter part of next month. Henry ts too weil known among local swimmers to need an introduc tion, The news that he will have complete charge of the big Star meet is favorably received by the many people interested in the loam) aquatic game here “Dad” has dincovered many young swimmers who have later turned out ‘ “I'm interested In uncovering new material and starting them out| right. ‘There's many minor faults that the swimmers do not notice, but when they're coached up alittle they’ probably have perfect form,” Henry mys. Nearly every mest staged outsides of the Crystal Poot has been under Henry's direction, The work on the coming Star meet will take lots of his time, but the Veteran is unselfishly giving it for the big meet, knowing that it will be & big boost for the swimming gume in Seattle. ENTRIES OPEN AUGUST 1 ‘The entries for the meet wil open on Monday, August 1, and will close on Saturday, August 13. The pre-| liminaries for the meet will probably be run off beginning the following Tuesday. More definite plans will be an- nounced later in the week by Heary. NEW YORK, July 21.—Pete Her man, who lost his world’s bantum- weight crown to Joe Lynch, will! meet Lynch In a ten-roukd bout in Brooklyn Monday night. ‘The Gotham promoters staging the bout have lined up a fast card sup porting the championship _ battie.

Renny will the chopping. They will weigh in at 135 pounds at 2 o'clock, August 12, when they meet at the National League ball park in Philadelphia for their §-round nodecision fight. For ovet two years promoters have tried in vain to get Benny and Lew in the ring together. There has been more hitching In getting these star lightweights to gether than any other two fighters. Always it has been the pound of fleah which kept them apart. At first Lew demanded that Renny make 133 pounds, the popu- |larty recognized lightweight lunit. More recently he has raised the jo and consented to 135 at 2 o'clock, the same weight at which Benny! fought and won the title from Freddy Welsh, May 24, 1917, tm @ New York ring. BENNY HAD COMEBACK And Benny has always flared up and said: “Who ts Tendier that be should dictate terms to the cham- pion” The chatmp has figured until recently that 136 pounds” was his proper weight for the Philadel phian. Many eryptic remarks have been buried back and forth between the rival champs, Herman Taylor ané Bobby Gan- nls, the Philadelphia promoters who have roped in the match, have ac complished what even Tex Rickard couldn't. Philadetphian ts the logical place fer the match, It is Lew's home town.

The reason is that Adams Herb Brenton will soon be for the Indians, and Adams is ablg to make Brenton deliver in real fashion. Adams worked wonders with Bren- ton last year, making his sale to the Cincy Reds possible. Adame also brings out the best tn Joe Dailey. While Adams has been of the shelf Joe bas had a hard time winning. Last year, when Jack was doing the receiving for big Joe, Dailey was hard to beat. Seattle is certaihly well fortified with catchers, While Spericer and took care of all the receiving. Now be out of the game for a few days. Adams is ready again, end with Spencer, should take care of the mask department in O. K. fashion. Adams ian't a hitter of Spencer's caliber and he hasn't Tobin's youth, but there are few catchers in the Coast league who work pitchers bet ter, throw better and think better baseball than the “Deacon.” BROOKLYN AFTER PINELLI “Babe” Pinelll, the ecrappy third wacker of the Oakland club, may bave another chance in the big) show.

That's the real secret of success in the national pastime. — LANE 18 VALUABLE Billy Lane is proving himself to be one of the most valuable players on the Seattle team this year. The Uttle outfielder is playing @ great all-around game. He's lead- | ing the league in stolen bases. With his .280 batting average he makes one of the greatest leadoff men in minor league baseball. He has one of the strongest throwing arms in the Coast loop. When it comes to naming the most valuable team man in the | league Lane's name is bound to be among those mentioned. —— OAKS HERE NEXT With the standing for the season even up at seven games all between Seattle and Oakland, next week's series between these two slugging teams should be for blood The locals wiped up the greensward with the Acorns in their first series here, winning six out of seven. When the Indians invaded San Francisco last week the Oaks took the bows and arrows away from the tribe and spanked the locals with them in six out of seven starts.
