BASEBALL BOXING STORTS TENNESSEE GOVERNOR SYRACUSE TO GET GRID-STARS BACK SYRACUSE, N.Y., July 20 — Syracuse football hopes for next Fall season is high today when Coach John F. C. McKillip Meehan announces that Johnny "Mack" McBride, halfback, and Roy Simmons, quarterback, will be back in college and out for the eleven in September. Both McBride and "Simmons left college last semester because of poor health that had bothered them throughout the football season and kept them on the bench most of the time. Simmons went to the Adirondacks. Both starred with the freshman team in 1921. Then last year "Mack" proved one of the most dependable varsity backs Syracuse has seen in recent years. Besides McBride as halfback and Simmons as quarter, Coach Meehan will have Gifford Zimmermön, selected as the most valuable man on the team last year, together with two new men, Schmidlin and Spleeter, and several of the 1922 freshman stars, out of which to mold a backfield. The line is practically intact from last Fall. Tagging All the Bases (By I. N. S.) Bill Doak baffled the Giant batsmen, allowed only six hits and the Cards took the second straight, 3 to 0. "Dazzy" Vance dazzled the Cincinnati Reds and brot a 1 to 0 victory to the Brooklyn Robins. In a one-sided game the Chicago Cubs trounced the Phillies 7 to 1. Alexander turned in the win. The Pirates killed a Boston rally in the eighth with a triple play and won 8 to 6. BASEBALL TODAY AMERICAN Wash'n. ... 000 500 070—12 12 0 Cleve. ... 000 030 002—5 12 4 Washington—Zachary and Ruel.

STENIS GOLF OPTIMISTIC FLYER WOULD TRY AGAIN DAYTON, July 20.—Whether Lieutenant Russell Maughan will be given a third trial this summer to make a daylight coast-to-ocast dash will be determined after Maughan makes his official report to the air service. The chief of the air service is enroute to St. Louis to discuss arrangements for the coming Pulitzer cup balloon races. "The days are getting shorter and I am very fearful that it is too late in the season. But if I can be convinced that the project is still feasible this year, Lieutenant Maughan will get a chance at another trial." ROCK SPRINGS, Wyo., July 20.—Despite the fact that he has twice failed to span the continent in a single day, Lieut. Russell Maughan today declared he is convinced he can succeed and will start the trip again just as soon as possible if officials at Washington will permit. The daring lifer was forced down here late yesterday almost within reach of the goal—the flying field a San Francisco. When a leaking oil line endangered his motor. There were rumors of sabotage to the plane used by Lieut. Maughan, but these were not generally credited, altho it was known a code telegram of warning had been dispatched to all landing fields on Maughan's route. Asked whether he thot his plane had been tampered with somewhere along the route, Lieut. Maughan replied: "That is absurd. The leak occurred at a place where it would have been necessary to remove part of the engine in order to get at it." After leaving Cheyenne, Maughan in an effort to reach Solduro, Utah, where possible permanent repairs could be made, speeded his plane up SARGUM SPROUTINGS Firpo's home people are not given to hysteria and wild dreams. They are proud of Louis Angelt and are ready to back him to the limit but to give Jack Dempsey the pile of gold he demands just to stage a fight in Argentine, nothing doing. In place of sending out $700,000 or $8,000,000 they propose that Firpo bring back some small change like $100,000 or so. The home people are willing to read about the fight and let the people of the U.S. A. pay for it. The people of Argentine are showing a lot of good judgment. They probably would make a success of the fight but in so doing would drain heavily on the finance of the sporting world. Firpo can fight just as well in the United States and the people of the land where the stars and stripes freedom are used to paying the price of world's championship extravagances. We say the Argentine people are displaying keen sight and judgment in refusing to stage the coming Firpo-Dempsey mixup. Charlie White displayed to the fighting world that he is still alive when he knocked out Richie Mitchell in New York last night. There is no man living that can stand up with Charlie unless he wears the light-weight crown. The title holder always is a hoodoo for the Chicago battler. The Mitchell-White contest was a terrific slugging affair. Both were groggy several times but Charlie's famous left hook was too much for the Milwaukee lad. White has been knocking at the select door of the lightweight for twelve years, and while he has had several chances at the title he has always fallen short of the coveted prize. Babe Ruth is warming up in his home-run hitting. He has 22 to his credit and bids fair to equal his past record. The greatest of all ball players has been idle all season and may never play again. George Sisler, for all around playing was the greatest... but these were not generally credited, altho it was known a code telegram of warning had been dispatched to all landing fields on Maughan's route. Asked whether he that his plane had been tampered with somewhere along the route, Lleut. Maughan replied: "That is absurd. The leak occurred at a place where it would have been necessary to remove part of the engine in order to get at it." After leaving Cheyenne, Maughan in an effort to reach Solduro, Utah, where possible permanent repairs could be made, speeded his plane up to 170 miles an hour for 245 miles. Near Rock Springs the leak became so bad that it dropped from the cooler in buckettfalls. Fumes from the burning oil made Maughan very ill and realizing that his mount would be unable to negotiate the distance, circled over, the almost deserted landing field and brot his plane to the ground. Maughan covered in all a distance of 1680 miles at an average speed of 135 miles an hour. This distance is nearly two-thirds of the continent. He was in the air a total of 13 hours and 9 minutes and while very tired said that he could easily have finished the flight had his motor held up for him. WASHINGTON, July 20.—In the absence of Major General Mason M. Patrick, chief of the army air service, there was no one here today who could state whether or not Lleut. Russell L. Maughan would be permitted to make another attempt at a dawn to dusk flight across the continent. White has been knocking at the select door of the lightweight for twelve years, and while he has had several chances at the title he has always fallen short of the coveted prize. Babe Ruth is warming up in his home-run hitting. He has 22 to his credit and bids fair to equal his past record. The greatest of all ball players has been idle all season and may never play again. George Slifer, for all around playing was the greatest player in 1922, the game afforded. He could play in any position, was a good leader of men, and an ideal player in every department. The public has never been let into the secret of his alliment. Ever so often it is reported that he will take his regular position but each time he falls to do so. It is the general impression that his vision is impaired but there has never been an official statement to that effect. He had not really reached the top of his ability as a player, and it is one of the most regretable incidents that has happened to base ball that he has been out of the game. It has been intimated that he will come back as manager of the Browns Sisler is the type of leader that inspires his men by example and not by driving force. Frank Dillon, the old Los Angeles manager, was great as long as he was a great player, but when he lost his playing ability he was unable to inspire his men with the spirit necessary to constitute a winning ball team. Sisler is of the Dillon type. He would have to inspire his men by example and if he does not regain his playing ability he will not be a great manager. NEW YORK, July 20.—The stock market closed steady today. Buying continued for a rise in the final dealings altho some profit taking because of the approaching week end appeared.
