This afternoon he will lead his squad against the Western Unions at the East Elmwood diamond at 3:30 p. m. The Telegraphers hope to take the billiard artists down a notch in this feature game in the American league. To date the Paxtons have tasted none of the sting of defeat and continuing at their present clip should easily tuck away the flag in hia circuit. Mack to Hurl. Harold Mack probably will do the heaving for the Paxtons. Bill Mona han will he ready to do relief if the W. U.'s get too strong with their * bats. The Unions will present a some what varied lineup again today. Every week new faces appear in their uniforms. Ike Mahoney and his Murphy Did Its are booked to clash with the Schneider Electrics on the Muny Beach diamond at Carter lake. Fresh from their overwhelming double vic tory over the Nebraska Tires last Sunday, the Murphys think they will romp away in an easy fashion with today's combat. Nebraska Tires and the Knights of Columbus will settle a few differences this afternoon at Fontenelle park. Both clubs suffered defeats last Sun day and are anxious to get back Into the victory column. The other Metropolitan league game will see the Standard Laun drys and TT. p.

Cicotte Now Game Warden at $3 Per Bark in -3919 Kddi» Cicotte. then a veteran, was one of the nto«t popular pitchers In the major leagues. He was tljp idol of the fanatics who fol lowed the Chicago White Sox. He was one of the leaders of the Ban Johnson Joop. His salary was $12,000 a year, plus a good bonus. Today this same hall player Is s deputy game warden up In Michigan at $3 a day—about half the sum a laborer makes. For a sum of money, so it was charged, Cicotte was one of the Black Pox who agreed to “throw” baseball games in the world's series of 1919. That sum may have been $10,000 less than a year's pay. A splendid example to prove to as plrlng young ball players that It pays to do ns 99 per cent of baseball play ers do—be square. 0-4* what would you think of this car driver?

Troon, Scotland, June HI.—“I’ll be back again,” declared Walter Hagen, the 1922 British open chomplon, as he sailed for the United Staten on the Berengarla today after a vain but courageous attempt to again win the open championship. With him sailed Gene Sarazen, Johnny Farrell, Leo Diegel and Charley Hoffner. Hagen missed out winning by the narrow margin of one stroke, Arthur Gladstone Havers, a youthful British professional bringing the classic back t,o England with a score of 295. "I can't blame the weather,” Hagen said, "but It was a factor against us. We got frightfully cold waiting to drive off. The barring of the punched club did not make any difference but I dislike the unsportsmansllke man ner of issuing the barring order at the eleventh hour. But I'll be back again.” Havers, the son of a steward of an English club, and one of the most prominent of the younger set of pro fessionals to displace the old guard of j British golfers, |s the real h»ro of! England today. He played a steady,1 methodical game, succeeding where such English lights as George Dum-an, James Braid .Abe Mitchell and Roger Wethered, failed.
