PAGE EIGHT BASEBALL BOXING SPORTS FIRPO LEAVES RUMOR OF LAWSUIT TO TEX. ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 6.—Luis Angel Pirpo was not worried today over reports that the courts might stop his battle with Jack Dempsey on September 14. "I will keep right on training," he said. "Tex Rickard will take care of the lawsuit." Firpo is doing much of his work in secret. The real training is in the improvised gymnasium back of his cottage where every morning he is working hard. The afternoon exhibitions at the dog track are regarded more as a commercial than athletic exhibition. REVEALS HOW BABE CAN K. O. LUIS WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, N. Y., Sept. 6.—Jack Kearns, manager of Jack Dempsey, today said that the only person who could win the fight for Luis Angel Pirpo next week was Babe Ruth. "How?" he was asked. "Ruth has a big baseball bat." Kearna replied. "If he lends it to Luis and lets the latter use it, maybe Luis can knock out Jack, but it cannot be done any other way."

Years ago the name Joe McGinnitt was known to all the baseball world as belonging to one of the best pitchers of all time. Age got Joe so they said and he drifted down to the management of Dubuque in the Mississippi Valley League. Joe quit pitching, he was a bench manager. About a year ago his team got into a slump and just could not win. One day Joe warmed up his ancient wing and went on the hill and turned in the first win for his team for something like ten games. This season Joe unlimbered the old flipper along with the youngsters and quite often took the place in the center of the diamond. The records of the season just closed charges him with pitching 25 games of which 15 were in the won colums. Not so bad for a boy 54 years young. Charlie W. Clark has entered the sport world as a racing promotor. Mr. Clark is backing the Culver City horse racing project with a lot of real money. The son of Senator W. A. Clark of Montana, is out to make horse racing have a real "come back" in Los Angeles. Next week will see active work on the track begun. Dick Ferris has worked long and hard on the project, and is all smiles since Mr. Clark has interested himself in the proposition. Mr. Ferris and Clark claim that they will bring the best horse in the world to L. A. for this winter's meet.

If the present demand for reserve seats keeps up there will be a $1,500,000 house. Some contracts to the old days, but the old days are gone forever. The Dundee-Leonard fracas has been postponed indefinitely. The Dempsey-Firpo match was the event of the hour. The fans could not be made to get all steamed up over a lesser bout so near to the big event. So it was up to Mr. Leonard and Dundee to wait or fight for glory and who wants to fight for glory these days? Italy claims distinction but we'll bet a seal skin only person who count wins right now!

Italy claims that distinction but we'll bet a seal skin bathing suit that Mr. Italy expects a nice juicy strip of territory for fighting for honor. Young Sam Jones added new luster to the name of Jones when he pitched the first no-hit, no-run game of the season in the major leagues yesterday. Sam pitches for the New York Yankees and he accomplished his honors against the Athletics. Bab Ruth and company gave Sam wonderful support, cutting down several sure hits and turning them into put outs. Cineinnati won but so did the Giants. The Reds can not get any nearer to Giants than two and a half games. The Giants keep just that much and no less as their lead. The Los Angeles Angels have braced and are playing good ball again. They almost took the Seals down the line last week and starred out by taking the first game from Oakland. LOW GASOLINE PRICE MET BY BIG FOUR Gas descended to 13 cents cash today. The "big four" met the price of certain independents. By the coupon books issued previous to the last cut Standard gas may be obtained at 11 cents. Shell gas by the previous cards, also no longer issued, may be obtained at the same price. Gas may go still lower, service stations intimated today. Indebendts are expected again to cut under the figures of the larger companies or meet the lowest possible price of the latter, which is 11 cents. In Los Angeles independent gas at seven to 10 cents is predicted, the lowest price in 20 years, except for a brief time in 1993 when the fluid sold at six cents. SEE THIS TAG on Every Orange TENNIS GOLF JAKE VETTER HEADS AM. LEGION TEAM Jake Vetter, veteran baseball player, will assume management of the American Legion baseball team when the aggregation starts activities in October. Vetter has had years of experience in the baseball line and has had training with such teams as the Elks, Dodgers Cubs and the American Legion teams. Vetter is a good player and excellent manager and no doubt will pick out a winning squad. Among those he has his eyes on is Ramey, a big leaguer. He played with the Salt Lake team and has had considerable experience in San Diego with ball clubs. Ramey will take the mound. Reeves, a veteran catcher, will be invaluable when he gets whipped into shape. Reeves saw some action last season with the team, but before that had not played for some time. Reeves plans considerable practice before the season starts and will be a good receiver for Ramey's quick shots. Bryan and Hewett are older good men who will also considerable reaction to the team. Vetter is working on a strong field but is not ready to give out the line-up. Vetter is planning a three game series with the Elks team if that aggregation is willing. No doubt this would draw a big crowd. GRAIN MARKET STEADY NEW YORK, Sept. 6.—The stock Babe Ruth, left, and Harry Hellmann.

COMMUNITY WELL IN RECORD PROGRESS Passing its expected record of 125 feet per day, the test well of the Standard Oil Co. on the Community lease of the William Wagner, Jr., ranch had reached the 575-foot mark today and was climbing toward the 700-foot point. The three crews expect to reach there by tomorrow morning if all goes well. The formation has not changed. Hard sand, varied by rocks two or three times per day, is the rule. Two big additional sections of drill pipe, one of approximately 40 and the other of approximately 60 feet, stand ready to be lowered into the hole as soon as they are demanded. No new equipment is yet necessary and it is undecided when the 15-inch casing will be inserted. This will not be under 1,000 feet, however, and perhaps not under 1500 feet. The present test well is of the wildcat variety in the sense that the exact location of a new field has not been certainly determined. The company has made up its mind that another field, probably similar to the seven already strung about Anaheim and Fullerton, exists, but doesnt' know just where. There is no occasion to hurry matters, on this lease at least, because the Standard holds 160 acres, and there will be none of the chopping up into small pieces and crowding of rigs such as has taken place in certain other fields, where holdings are small and competition is so fierce are visiting from Monterey Park, spent Friday and Saturday at Hodges Lake.

HOT SUN THROUGH GLASS STARTS FIRE Broken glass, acting as a sun magnifier, was blamed for a fire which oraginated in a barrel of waste paper and spread to a garage on North Center-st, Orange, causing only slight damage yesterday afternoon. A quantity of broken glass had been thrown on top of the papers in the barrel and the sun beating morelessly on the trash pile was intensified by the glass, igniting the papers, firemen believed. that as many wells as possible and as quickly as possible are packed on a lease. The smaller companies continue to wait for the Standard's first well before beginning drilling operations. If a 1,000-barrel well were obtained, to put it conservatively, it could be expected to last fully 10 years, if no other well were drilled within five acres of this test well. In fact, while the gas pressure would lessen and the yield diminish, except after the hole had been cleaned out, such a well if it were obtained might last for 20 years or longer.

COLEMAN CHIROPRACTOR 6 Years Successful Practice in Los Angeles 250 E Center Street Phone 845 On the Ground Floor Draw Your Own Conclusion Daugherty Discusses I. H. C. Suit General Daugherty, while in Chicago, discussed the suit of the Gov't against the International Harvester quoted in the Chicago Herald and follows: national Harvester Co., in a statement commenting on the suit says: "The government, having failed to prove its first charge, now in this new proceeding charges the company with having made the prices of harvesting machines unduly low to the injury of its competitors." Conclusion General Daugherty, while in Chicago, discussed the suit of the Gov. Inst the International Harvester Company quoted in the Chicago Herald and follows: Government could not do otherwise the suit it started last week. International Harvester Company he continued. By respects it is similar to the Hash Register case and we haveursed our position, nor is the ac-istent with the earlier suit of that in view of the report on the company's activities rendered by trade commission there was nota- in the public interest and in just-Harvester company’s competitors, action against them to stop de-ices on harvester machinery. Lester Legge, president of the Inter- national Harvester Co., in a statement commenting on the suit says: "The government, having failed to prove its first charge, now in this new proceeding charges the company with having made the prices of harvesting machines unduly low to the injury of its competitors. "To the farmers of this country who have been for years protesting that the prices of all agricultural implements were too high, it will come as interesting news that the inter- national Harvester Company is charged with violation of law because it sold its harvesting machines too cheap. "The efficiency of the company is charged as an offense. The government asks a dis-solution of the company to destroy this effi-ficiency. As the offense was in making prices too low, the object of the suit is to compel higher prices. "The case is certainly anomalous. It will be watched with interest. The farmers especially will be anxious to learn whether the forcing of higher prices for machines is for the public good and can be compelled by law." Here Is Ours In manufacturing and efficiency in marketing made it possible in to sell International McCormick-Deering farm machinery, including and trucks at "depressing prices" and we hope so be able to do so in at least so long as the farmer is compelled to sell his product at "de-prices."
