Tagging All the Bases Runs were worth a dime a dozen as the Indians and Athletics broke even in a double-header, the latter giving Coveleskie the ragtman's rush in winning the first game, 14 to 2. The Indians replied by mauling Harris in the second, 8 to 6. The Dodgers, mesmerized by the spell of Meadows pitching, finished second to the Pirates, 5 to 2. A house run by Sheely with one on saved the White Sox from a double defeat at the hands of the Senators, the Glennon entry winning the second game 3 to 2, after dropping the first 5 to 4.

SARGUM SPROUTINGS By Sargum Sprout Firpo may not be a boxer and he may be a tightwad but he is succeeding in getting more free advertising than any other man ever did in the same period of time. Six months ago Firpo was little known; now he is head-lining the spot sheets most every day. The critics get a lot of kick out of telling how crude he is. Crude or not, he just ploughs through an opponent and date no one has been able to slow him up for an instant. Firpo must be a much better boxer than he looks like. There are men who appear awkward and crude that are really very polished and scientific. In the baseball world, Hans Wagner was of this type. No one watching the greatest of all short stops could understand how he did the things that made him great. Firpo must appear ponderous and slow, when in reality he is fast for a big man. Those whom he has boxed have not been able to hit him consistently. They probably were too busy warding off the great sludge hammer blows of the South American to do much hitting themselves. A fighter who can bore in fast enough to keep an opponent always on the defensive needs very litte guarding. Can Firpo keep Dempsey on the defensive? Babe Ruth tied the season's home run record Sunday, now having 29 along with Williams. The Babe is making himself one of the greatest batters of all time this year. His 29 home runs proves that he can still hit them far and wide, but the Babe is not swinging for home runs all the time. He is planting chappy singles through the infield with now and then a mighty swat to make both pitchers and fielders respect him. He is practically leading the American League in batting. He has scored more runs than any other player. Little Helen Willis upset the dope that the English Tennis team would be easy victors over our American women players, when she defeated England's best in Miss Kitty McKane. Miss Willis played the most brilliant game of her career and her wonderful work brought joy to the great gathering of American tennis fans. Miss McKane had but recently defeated Mrs. Mallory and the brilliant English player was booked on to repeat. At last a champion is found that does not crave publicity by writing for newspapers. All champions we have ever known delight in seeing their views in print headed by champion so and so. This queer personage is Champion Bobby Jones, American open golf champion. Bobby comes from "way down south" where the "hoe cake" grows. He believes in showing, not telling. We were taught a long time ago that actions speak louder than words and Bobby must believe that they do. Bobby was made a nice offer to write his ideas on golfing for the newspapers which offer he flatly refused. Jack Dempsey has gone into active training for the Firpo bout which is to take place Sept. 14. Dempsey is training at Saratoga Springs. Babe Ruth tied the season's home run record Sunday, now having 29 along with Williams. The Babe is making himself one of the greatest batters of all time this year. His 29 home runs proves that he can still hit them far and wide, but the Babe is not swinging for home runs all the time. He is planting chappy singles through the infield with now and then a mighty swat to make both pitchers and fielders respect him. He is practically leading the American League in batting. He has scored more runs than any other player. What more can you ask of the Babe?

TENNIS GOLF DAY PAYS FINE OF $200 ON LIQUOR CHARGE Earl Dunham, arrested May 20 by E. R. Rudy, and other Fullerton police, was given a hearing before a jury in Judge French's court this morning on the charge of transporting and having intoxicating liquors in his possession, and was found guilty. He was fine $200, or sentenced to 200 days in jail. He paid his flae. A jug partially filled with wine and also several bottles partially filled with liquors were exhibited as evidence. FEAR SOVIETS HAVE SEIZED U. S. VESSEL NOME, Alaska, Aug. 14.—Grave fears for the safety of the power boat White Mountain and her crew, long overdue from East Cape, Siberia, were expressed in shipping circles here today. Before the White Mountain left here on a trading mission earlier in the year her master was warned by the U. S. revenue cutter Bear not to go to Siberia but disregarded the warning. It is that here that Soviet authorities have seized the vessel. FLIER MAY LIVE Walter B. Emple, Los Angeles attorney, who suffered a broken back Sunday when the aeroplane which he was piloting from Redlands to Long Beach developed engine trouble, and made a forced landing near Olive, was reported to be getting along nicely today at the local sanitarium. Strong hopes are entertained for his recovery. George Schoeffel of Whittier, injured internally Sunday when cement sacks fell on him, was reported slightly improved today. His condition is still critical, however. CRASH DUE TO DRIVER, CLAIM Oliver H. Umberham of Santa Ana chief clerk of the So. Cal.

WORTHMORE TRACT Why ROINVEST because CRASH DUE TO DRIVE, CLAIM Oliver H. Umberham of Santa Ana chief clerk of the So. Cal. Edison Co.'s office there, didn't have his machine under control when it collided with that of J. D. Wineburner Jan. 6, when John H. Nolan was killed. Attorneys James L. Allen and James L. Davis who represent Mrs. Nolan in a suit for $15,000 damages declared they expected to prove this in the trial which opened today before Superior Judge William D. Delby. The couple were riding in Umberham's car. The defense will try to prove it was the carelessness of J. D. Wineburner, driver of the other car and co-defendant, which was to blame. GRAIN CLOSES WEAK CHICAGO, Aug. 14. Estimates of a bumper Canadian crop together with bearish foreign news outside of Liverpool carried grain to a weak close today. Corn hung with wheat and was off fractional amounts. Wheat closed 1% down. Corn was down % to a cent. Oats closed % up to % off. Provisions were quiet. STOCKS CLOSE STRONG NEW YORK, Aug. 14. The stock market closed strong today. Stocks showed a marked tendency in the final hour to break away from the unsettling conditions of the oil group. The sold-out position of the general list was strikingly demonstrated when shorts, attempting to cover, found a recarcity of offerings, resulting in sharp advances on relatively few sales. Baldwin rose over 2 points to 116% and Studebaker rose to 104, later selling down to 102%, a gain of %. American Can rose nearly one point to 89% and U. S. Steel 1 point to 89%. Oil stocks showed some irregularity in the final dealings, Marlaid oil dropping over one point to 28 while Pan-American Petro, rose % to 60%. Railroad stocks were steady, Baltimore and Ohio rising % to 48% and Canadian Pacific was unchanged at 146%. Government bonds unchanged; railway and other bonds were irrigular.
