d ‘ pees A aon Miske May Have Had a Relapse of Nerve—Talk of Match in Philadelphia With Dempsey ‘ This Month, JACK DEMPSBY - BILLY MISKE bout is on the tapis for} Philadesphia on or about Aug. 20. From what Miske eald in getting out of a meeting with Dempsey at} the recent show for the army fund at Madison Square Garden, Siow Town fight fans should prepare themselves for something short and Sweet, with the referee counting over the St. Paul fighter at the end. Of course, Miske may have had sufficient rest and recovered some of his fighting pep since in begging to be excused from mecting Dempsey, he said: “Why, that fellow will knock me out in half a round if he wants to.” At that time Miske had fought three or four times within a short period and really might not have been keyed up sufficiently to maké a credijable) showing “Why, I'd need a couple of weeks rest and training to just keep him off,” he explained further. Dempsey, very considerately as things turned out for Miske least, showed up at the Garden for the Army show with “ sprained ankle, and Miske- escaped ed knockout Dempsey and Miske fought rounds out West before that bout lasted the limit, but the been doubt expressed in uartera since then as to dr not Dempsey was “trying,” as they say on the race track, Demp- sey denies that this bout was anything but genuine, -but if it was, where did Miske get the idea that Jack ean knock him out in haif a round if he wants to” It is possible that Miske may go} on with Dempsey in Phils give him rats for six row dicting that he would, in St. Paul'# man's expressed awe Fulton's conqueror EMPSEY has left his Long Branch quarters for a trip to Chicago. He must come back East within a couple of weeks, not only to meet Miske but to appear in court Proceedings at ‘Trenton, N. J. A fomner manager, thinking Jack Is on the way to fabulous riches, is suing him for the steenth time in the hope Of getting a finger in the financial pie. Dempsey and his manager, Jack Kearns, were served with the “papers” @t Long Branch jast Friday and they are answerable at Jersey's capital in twenty days placed on each of the shipyard teams star ball players who had visions of finding themselves sinecures in the shipyards, will have to locate other “useful” jobs after Sept. 1, or join th army. Vice President Howard Conley threw a bomb into the expectations of professional pall players by limiting the employment of more than two of them in any one yard, and further announcing that: “All workers must be primarily shipbuilders. ‘Trained ball players or other sportsmen tnay become shipbutlc proficient to re Mr. Conley made the foregoing stat ment not to discourage ball pl but rather in answer to oprel Crane's charges that men are ¢ ployed in shipyards solely to play base. ball. 3 A LTHOUGH he had &t first de- clined to compete for the na- tional tennis championship, Ichiya Kumagae, the Japanese expert, bas ‘finally decided to accept the invita- tion of the Nationa; Lawn ®ociation and play for the title, At the time of Kumagae's declination there didn't seem to b jon for the and like a good sportsman he didn't want to win a United States championship under such conditions.

By Hugh S. Fullerton. Comment, 1018, the Pree Publi Oo, York Brening World), HS Coveenaent and the bali dp players permitting, the major leagues will attempt to stage a World's pries, starting either on ‘Tuesday, Sept. 3, if Cleveland and the New York Giants or Boston Red Sox and the Chi- cago Cubs win the pennants, or on Wednesday, Sept. 4, if the cham- plonship is, be- between New York and Boston | or Cleveland and Chicago. The magnates , are perfectly wil- Axis ling, even anx- ious to play the series, and have voted to continue the playing seasons until Sept. 2, relying upon the good nature of the Govern- to include Labor Day in the re- granted baseball. Then they will rely further upon the good nature of the Government to al- low the two winning clubs to continue in non-essential employment for about a week longer, It is not known what view Gen. Crowder and the War Department will take of the latest move of the magnates, but it is a moral cinch that, unless the players are assured that the series is to be played by explicit permit and sanction of the Govern- ment only those of over and under draft age will be present. ‘The ballplayers, of course, are anx- ious to take part in a World's Series and to get the coin, but the majority of the Chicago Cubs, who now appear to be winners of the National League championship, are of the opinion that t will not get a chance to play. They will not risk the displeasure of the Government by playing after the time limit set in Secretary Baker's order, and some of them declare that, un they have further assurances that the Government favors a series, they will not play either on Sept. 1 or? What the chances of a World's Se- ries being played under such circun- stances are L can't guess, It would be hard luck for the players of the winning teams to lose their chane for the prize. If Secretary Baker's ruling is on a matter of principle, there isn't a chance for a series. If. however, he decides that thirty-three r four men, more or less, for a few days, will not make any difference, and that the baseball owners are not striving to defy the Government, there may de a series. S$ to the winners, the Cubs spent A a quiet Sunday in New York and got their meals regularly, although they are stopping at a hotel which has been punished for food hoarding and cannot serve meals for two days, Some of the Cubs imagine that this is @ frame-up to sta ‘ve them so the hance to win to- game, ‘They are assured of meals, however, but will have 70 out to get them | Sox, Cleveland Club, making its aviest drive for the American championship, broke even the Red Sox and came near 42 59 .416| winning both ends of the double- Jheader, which would have thrown a real seare into the leaders, The Red th Ruth pitebing, won the first game in twelve innings, and lost the second in six. That makes just jpineteen games that Ruth has won “Government O. K.’s Games probably would be in the second di- vision instead of being in the eq and logical favorites for the chat pionship. Our Yanks met another disaster and are dropping rapidly. They lost two games—and will be lucky to stick in the first division. ND while we are selecting “Mir- acle Men” of this season, I rise to nominate Uncle Bill Robinson, the plump and earnest gentleman who handles the Brooklyn Club. Robby was given a chunk of cheese Alled largely with holes, and has made it look like camembert, He has accom- plished more with less material thon any manager in the league or in either league. His team was shot to pieces by the draft and enlistments before it started. It got away to per- haps the most discouraging star: any team ever has had. He lost man after man, and éven when Wheat, his best player, reported after bol l.ng out, Robby had just fourteen players and mighty little money to buy any others, He bas spent the entire sea- son patching up a team, losing men and borrowing others, once being down to twelve active players. Yet he has kept the club hustling ali the time, trying, no matter what the odds were, and making the best of a bad situation, and he has passed clubs that have had much better players and clubs that ought to have been up fighting for the pennant. ‘The recent showing of Brooklya is an encouraging lesson in loyalty. It was the loyalty of Jack Coombs, Rube Marquard and some of the veterans GENTLEMAN WHO BUYS 417.50 WORTH OF AATIFICIAL BAIT TO KEEP FROM PAYING & KIO SS FOR woRMSs THE ONLY THING POOR OLD JA7BO JONES CAUGHT WHILE FISHING was @& @or.o. to Uncle Robby that made his stow- ing possible, TB run out of the major league players, which was to be ex- pected after the work or fight order hit baseball, is proceeding steadily and probably will reach its.climax on Aug. 15 (pay day). Nehf and Wick- land of the Braves, Groh of Cincin- natd and Rankin Johnson of the Cards are reported already signed to play with the Triangle Factory League at Dayton, and Neale and Griffith of the Reds and Sotheron of the Brownes also are reported signed. The Lakes- | Mesaba teams report that they will get Bancroft of the Phils and s others, While the two shipyard leagues and the steel league are put- ting up the bars and restricting the number of major leagwers on each team, the other industrial leagues are busy trying to sign major league stars who are scurrying around seek- ing paying jobs that are considered useful. The meaning is clear. The weaker clus of the major | ues will disin- tegrate rapidly from now on, while those which still have a chance for pennant honors will hang together better at least until all hope of a pen- nant is dead. That means that Ohi- cago Cubs, the Giants, the Red Sox and Cleveland ought to have a prac- tical walkaway during the remainder of the curtailed season. Jack Sharkey and Pal Moore, two of the leading contenders for bantam- weight honors, will clash to-night at the Armory Athletic Aesociation of Jersey City. This will be their second meeting, the first battle ending in @ sengational draw. Sharkey, @ product of New York's west aide, has jumped to the front ranks in a year, having de- feated @ome of the best men of his weight, Moore has beaten Pete Herman and Johnny Ertle.
