BAPTISTS WIN "Y" CHAMPIONSHIP Playing before a crowd of approximately 500 indoor baseball fans, the Baptist and Presbyterian teams battled for the city championship and possession of the Rotary cup on the Y. M. C. A. field last evening. The Baptists took the lead early in the game and several times the score was tied but the Baptists always managed to pull out in front again and the final score was in their favor 9 to 13. This game was a fitting close in for the city league as both teams had their rooters and yell leaders on the job and it was hard at times to even hear yourself think amid the noise and the cheering. It was a dangerous thing to try to steal a base last night and Simon, Baptist catcher, pegged out three runners at second base and one at third, while EJ Beebe Presbyterian catcher pegged out two at second base. Some of the Presbyterians helped keep their pitcher in a bad hole when three times they waited for the ball to bounce when it could have easily been taken on the fly for an cut. The Baptist team made six errors and the Presbyterian three and the same number were walked by the pitchers of the respective teams. Hickey struck out seven end Walker nine. Balls and strikes were called by Warren Ashleigh and the bases umpired by Pannier, Presbyterian. AB. R. H. Ainsbry, ls... 5 1 1 J. Hensley 2b... 4 1 0 Walker, p... 5 1 1 N.

BICKLEY 10 BIG ACTS Reserved Seats Now on Sale at Kemp Bros.' Drug Store—50 Cent EVENTS PENATE DEADLOCK BLOCKS CONGRESS By WM. K. HUTCHINSON (I. N. S. Staff Correspondent) (WASHINGTON, Dec. 18.—Alough the House of Representatives began to function properly today, the legislative wheels of the 68th Congress remained locked, due to the organization deadlock in the Senate. A well-managed movement was launched in the upper branch however, to end the deadlock by the election of Senator James Couzens, Rep., of Michigan, to the chairmanship of the interstate commerce committee as a compromise. The peace negotiations wereathered by Senators Borah of Ohio, Jones of Washington and lodging of Idaho, all so-called regular Republicans. Their efforts were directed toward pacifying the regular Republican ranks, whose support was again given to Senator Albert B. Cummins of Iowa, now president protem of the Senate. They maintained the first should be offered first to the regular Republicans, who outrank couzens on the committee. Two hours before the Senate sworn in, James Watson, Rep., Indiana, after a conference with President Coolidge, predict that Senator Smith, the Democratic candidate, would be chosen head the interstate commerce committee. Watson said the Republican citizens did not propose to commissise with the progressives by voting for Senator Couzens. The insurgents announced they would support Couzens solidly as long as there remained any chance of his election. This statement contradicted reports that progressives would throw FANS SURPRISED AT CHARGE MADE AGAINST PITCHER SPORT SNAP SHOTS BY JACK MEENE The recent sale of the Newark International League club franchise to Michael McTigne and other Newark business men is of considerable interest generally in that it ends the cry of "syndicate baseball," which has haunted the team and its activities for several seasons. For two years International league fans had been kicking all around the circuit the rumor that Jack Dunn, president of the Baltimore club in the International league, controlled the Newark franchise. Dunn has won five pennants in a row for the Baltimore Orioles. While no one produced any real tangible evidence regarding the so-called syndicate arrangement, the fact remains that Onewark fans showed little interest in the team. The purchase of the club from William Ashton and Bernard Moen of Baltimore by the home-town crowd has been well received by the fans. France introduces a novelty in the boxing game—a man who started at the top weight and is fighting his way down. Usually our boxing luminaries start in as lightweights or welters and eventually graduate into the heavyweight class. But the French ring has produced a gent named Romerio who started as a real heavyweight, and now fights as a weiterweight, many pounds under the heavy limit. He may never challenge Pancho Villa for the flyweight title but Johnny Dundee may well look to his laurels. Hans Wagner is about to divulge, under his own signature the secret of his wonderful hitting, which placed him at the top of the National league for eight campaigns. Didn't know their secret.

Leonard alone is a credit to the division. He is one of the greatest lightweight champs the game has known. But the division holds no other great ring artists.
