METHODISTS HOLD LEAD IN BASEBALL
The Methodist indoor baseball team still retains the lead in League 1 of the Y. M. C. A. indoor baseball league by its defeat last night of the Presbyterian team by a 12 to 5 score. This game proved to be one of the fastest and best played this season on the Anaheim "Y" field. In the third inning the Methodist pulled a triple play, the first of the season. New-kick played a good game at third, making some sensational stops, while Marvin and Ashleigh pitched a good brand of ball. Walker, for the Presbyterians, pitched good ball, but did not have the backing in the field given on the Methodist pitchers. Gledhill and Hickey umpired the game.
The second game of the evening brought a win for the Baptist over the Rome Oil team, the score being 18 to 12. Both teams hit freely and it looked anybody's game up to the last. The Anaheim boys have accepted a challenge from the Fullerton club for a game which will be played this evening at 7:30 on the Y. M. C. A. field. The Fullerton Club boasts a strong team and a fast team has been lined up for Anaheim by Secretary Ashleigh of the Y. M. C. A. The lineup:

Reports from Shelby indicate that Jack Dempsey is making life miserable for his sparring partners. Nearly every day the champion knocks out one or more of his hired men. Dempsey seems to think that he must do that to convince fans that he is in good form.
Putting a sparring partner to sleep should not enhance the prestige of a champion. Such happenings are the result of one of two things. Either the champion is decidedly poor sportsman to mistreat his helpers in that fashion or he is clumsy in the use of his fists. Dempsey says the knockouts are accidents. Taking him at his word that means that he lacks control. Good boxers do not inquire their helpers. It is only the wild swingers, who are not sure of themselves, that beat up their sparring partners to a greater extent than necessary.
The champion's admirers say that he is just as fast and as good a boxer as Gibbons. As a matter of fact, he does not begin to compare with Gibbons when it comes to science. Dempsey is just a slugger. He is a very good one and he probably can beat all the boxers that could be thrown into the ring with him, but he certainly is not a boxer.
He admits that when he says he has to knock out his sparring partners to make them keep their place. If Dempsey could box a lick he would not call upon his hitting ability to enable him to take care of the kind of fighters who accept jobs as sparring partners. A real boxer can handle that kind without any trouble at all. The only way Dempsey can stand them off is to hit harder than they do. That does not detract from his ability as a fighter, but it proves that he is no boxer.
The assertion that Dempsey is a good boxer is laughable. One has only to recall his bout with Blit Brennan in New York. Dempsey tried to box instead of fight on that occasion and he made himself look ridiculous.
Rocco Stramaggle, the Italian light heavyweight who cut Dempsey's left eye and was discharged for doing so, has come in for another spell, the men William through his championship.
Gunboat Smith first tention when he floats son in a training game with Jeffries. The over one of his right Johnson went down.

Plenty of good fighters obtained their start as the result of an inadvertent similar to that which threw the spotlight on Rocco.Jack Renault first attracted attention as a result of his sparring bouts with Dempsey when the champion was training at Atlantic City for the Carpenter match.Renault was the only one of the crew capable of making Dempsey extend himself.
None of Jess Willard's sparing partners ever attracted any attention for the very good reason that big Jess was careful to select entirely harmless individuals.The best man Willard ever hired for sparring practice was Cliff Kramer,who helped him put on the finishing touches at Yonkers.Kramer did not amount to much at that,但他 was better than Walter Monahan and Jack Hemmett here was jubilant overcessful refelling tests when Captain Smith and Ter.,in the De Havilland turtle,in the De Havilland turtle keep aloft three times lo any plane has yet flown,a forty-foot inch and a half hour from the "feeder" plane.Lieutenants Seifert and Liese were flying directly over received gasoline at the gallons a minute.

Gunboat Smith first attracted attention when he floored Jack Johnson in a training gallop for battles with Jeffries. The Gunner arched over one of his righthanders and Johnson went down. The incident made Smith famous overnight.
Jim Jeffries was introduced to the fistic public as sparring partner to Jim Corbett at Carson City. Jeff never eroded Corbett so far as is known. He always was on the receiving end, but he could take it so well that he made a big hit with Billy Delaney, who later developed him into a champion.

FIGHT AGAIN HANGS IN BALANCE TODAY
By DAVIS J. WALSH
I. N. S. Sports Editor
SHELBY, Mont., June 26.—A chance remark, dropped in the presence of the writer today by a man whose index finger lingers on the local pulse, developed the interesting fact that the sum of $75,000 represents the actual cash taken in to date by the promoters of the Dempsey-Gibbons half million dollar dream.
It was the first direct information that has been obtained on the matter of ticket sales, this secret having been guarded with ten jealous care of a mother for her first born.
From another source, equally reliable, we have been assured that the bout will take place as scheduled altho contrary reports have been very active during the last 24 hours.
These reports purported to indicate that the final installment of $100,000 covering Dempsey's guarantee would be allowed to go by default and the entire result dropped with the alacrity of one handed a red hot store lid.
Our information is quite to the contrary. It is to the effect that the money will be paid when due and the right put on, altho actual information as to just how this desirable condition may be hastened is a bit vague. The Great Northern railroad and capitalists of Great Falls seem to have qualified for the marry* role that will make Montana safe for the padded knuckle.
In other words, the hot sports of this locality, having wished themselves into a colossal bloomer, are ready to pay the price for their folly.
It will be a stiff one.
If the actual receipts are $75,000 a week before the fight only a miracle can bring the investors fifty cents on the dollar when they come to count the returns. Dempsey, first of all, will receive $210,960. That is as certain as the day before yesterday, unless Jack Kearns has a couple of wisdom teeth extracted. If by some windfall the receipts should reach this sum or more Gibbons will

SEATTLE SHIPBUILDER DIES
(By International News Service)
SEATTLE, June ... Funeral arrangements were being made today David Rodgers, war time manager the Skinner and Eddy Shipyard, no died at his home near here late at night after a long illness.
Broken in health from overwork, Rodgers was forced to relinquish his job as general manager of the shipbuilding plant after the armistice was signed.
GREAT FALLS, Mont., June ... A pair of weighty questions oppress the minds of men in Great Falls and Shelby these days. They are:
— Can that final $100.00 be raised for Jack Dempsey by July?
— If it is not raised, will Jack Dempsey refuse to send the champion into the July fourth ring?
At this hour the receipts are a million miles or so from justifying the hope that they can meet the final payment which the contract provides for the champion. If all figures so far given are correct, the cash intake to date has not hit the $200,000 mark. And this total must exceed $300,000 before the receipts can pay the Dempsey end.
Those who are promoting the fight—and those who are merely assisting thru state pride in the effort to put it over—now are verbally laboring with officials of the Great Northern railway. They are trying to get the railroad to advance the final $100,000. So far the efforts have not been successful. Not later than Thursday a definite answer is expected. The fate of the bout, therefore, will hang in the balance until that time.
The answer to the second question is rather emphatically supplied by Kearns, to-wit:
"If they don't produce the third $100,000 by July two, Dempsey will not go into the ring. That's final. It was not our fault that these men behind the fight cannot make the financial grade. When they wanted me to sign up Dempsey, I outlined this locality, having wished themselves into a colossal bloomer, are ready to pay the price for their folly.
It will be a stiff one.
If the actual receipts are $75,000 a week before the fight only a miracle can bring the investors fifty cents on the dollar when they come to count the returns, Dempsey, first of all, will receive $3$Ib,$0$o. That is as certain as the day before yesterday, unless Jack Kearns has a couple of wisdom teeth extracted. If by some windfall the receipts should reach this sum or more Gibbons will begin to cut in on each additional dollar. If not, Gibbons, the promoters and the sovereign state of Montana will be all to the cabbage.
The work of promotion, the printing of tickets, the salary of office help and what not, will add another $50,000 to the general grief. The erection of the arena will contribute $65,000 more and we have on the word of a lumber man that the sturge tins almost worthless from the standpoint of salvage.
He declared that $5,000 might be realized if the arena is demolished after the fight, but declined to inflate his estimate by so much as an Austrian kronen. In fact, he was inclined to believe he had given the promoters slightly the better of it in naming this figure.

I made everything clear; I pointed out that I could get a fight for Dempsey in New York or New Jersey for July four and get more money than they offered.
"They wanted the fight in Shelby. They even scoffed at men when I had argued that maybe they couldn't raise the money. They made the contract with me and I mean to hold them to it. Dempsey will fight Tom Gibbons in Shelby for $3$Ib,$0$o—and not one dime less. That's Final."

NEW PENNY STORE
READY AUGUST 1ST
The new J. C. Penney Co. store on West Center-st will be a credit to Anaheim and a decided improvement for the western business section of the city. The front will be of handsome enamel brick and will contain show windows as ornate and modern as money can purchase.
This new store building, which the local Penny store will move into on or about Aug. 1, is one of 104 new structures to be completed in July, bringing the total in this world's largest chain clothing store organization to 475 stores, located in 29 different states. In 1922 the concern did a business of $50,000,000.
The new Anaheim store will be 155 feet deep and 25 feet wide, having 35 more linear feet of space than the present store, not including a considerably larger balcony used for offices and storage purposes. The fixtures and shelving will be of Clissellian walnut and there will be four large skylights with the trough system of lighting.
A ladies' ready-to-wear department will be a feature and the men's and boys' clothing department will be larger.
H. W. Lewis is manager and C. C. Boatie assistant manager of the store.
Timber used in the construction of the Mount Vernon placed there in 1743 and 1744 is still in an excellent state of preservation, it is reported.
THRILLS, SUSPENSE IN SECOND FIDDLE
After viewing "Second Fiddle," the first of a series of production by The Film Guild, to be distributed by the W. W. Hodkinson Corp., great satisfaction has been expressed over this initial picture. In their opinion, "Second Fiddle" possesses the proper ingredients to give it a universal and country-wide appeal. It has a certain proportion of suspense, thrills, and comedy with a deep human interest story underlying it all. This, if their estimation, is the ideal picture and should meet with the hearty approval of every lover of the better class of motion pictures.
The policy and purpose of The Film Guild is to supply the demand for high grade pictures. They have contracted to supply the W. W. Hodkinson Corp. a series of four pictures featuring Glenn Hunter. Great care has been exercised in the selection of the story, the picking and placing of the cast and the choice of the director in order to insure the ultimate high character of the picture.
The scenic effects, both from an artistic and dramatic standpoint are of a particularly high order, and the excellence of the photography adds to the picture.
"Second Fiddle" comes to the United theater tomorrow.
Bad lighting is the principle source of fatigue among workers, according to engineers who have made a survey of mechanical processes in industry.
