WichitaHas Proved Sensation of First Half of WesternLeague Pennant Contest Cleveland Scores 27 Runs on Boston Making American League Scoring Record _ ... ai _____ - - —® - § Isbell and Gregory Practically . Broke Up Club and Came Back With Well Organized Team of Youngsters - a BY RALPH WAGNER OW that the I Western league / \ I ^ I pennant race Is \ 1 I more than half \4p ^ over, the only reature so tar about the loop playing is the way in which the Wichita club has managed to hold onto first place. Let your mind trot back to last April when the clubs were just starting on their lace toward the pennant in this man’s league. If you will remember, all the ‘’we’’ boys, including the writer, said that the Witches would spring ■< surprise if they finished in first division next September. Maybe they will land in third or fourth place, but judging from past per formances, Wichita stands a mighty good chance of winning a pennant this year. "Baldy" Isbell, owner of the Witches, had a heap-good club last season, although it didn't win the pennant. The Witches of 1922 were fighting for first place from the start to finish. But, when Isbell let the ax fall and-Carl East went to Minne apolis: Joe Berger to Wichita Falls; Rlakesley, some place else; and two or three other heavy sluggers to some other town, the fans in the Western let out a yell, especially Wichita “hugs," claiming that Isbell was a cruel, hard-hearted baseball owner and didn't want his home town to have a pennant-winning team. However, Isbell knows a thing or two about baseball and while the fans were yelping, ol' Baldy was smiling. He had mapped out his campaign for 1923 and as early as May of 1922 had started making preparations for this season. He went out to California, gave the west ern slope athletes the ‘‘once over," and signed a few pitchers, some more outfielders and a couple or three in fielders. He appointed Howard Gregory manager. Now Howard is a pitcher himself and is a mighty mart baaeball man as far as base ball men go. Isbell gave Gregory some pitchers, inflelders and out lielders and told ’em to put out the best club he could. And Howard went right ahead and did just what his boss told him to do. Gregory knows how to handle men md this alone is a very great asset •o any person who is at the head of i group of men. When the Witches were last In Omaha. Gregory told the writer that he had never played on a . lub that the men gave any better o-operation than these Witches. And when you get right down to it. harmony is what you want on a ball ,-lub. Without teamwork the best baseball players in the country couldn't win a game. Now. take teamwork, slugging and fairly good pitching. Add them to gether and you have the Wichita club at the top of the Western league standings. There are not any flashy fielders on thtis Wichita club, but every player knows his position. By that we mean, knows how to pla1' It and at the same time give the oth< r fellow a little help now and then. Sellers, Maun. Musser, uregnry, and Hovlik. There’s tho five hurl ers who have been the surprise of the circuit. Even Isbell didn’t expect these hurlers to last this long. He expected them to crack long before his. But they haven't. Maun can beat the Buffaloes, so can Hovlik. Not only beat the Herd, hut It seems bke they have the Indian sign on all the other teams in the circuit. True, they get beat, but take all their games and you will find that they win the most of them. So after all, the Wichita fans laven't got anything to kick about. They have about the licst elub In the •ireuit today. The Witches may rack before long. Anything can aappen In baseball, but thus far Wichita leads the league and you gotta take off your kelly to "Baldy” Isbell and Manager Howard Greg ory. Tulsa, the 1922 champions, were expected to be up with the leaders. The Oilers are right up among the leaders, hut they Hre slipping. Man ger Lellvelt hasn't pitchers. It's • retty had when a first baseman like Lellvelt. has to step tn the box and iurl the pellet. The Tulsa pitch is, most of them, are on the injured lint. Oklahoma City Is playing about he beat ball of any of the Western league clubs, except Wichita. The Indians seem to have the punch and pep'' behind their playing. This was true when Oklahoma City was in Omaha. But the Buffaloes. Omaha whs con sidered one of the strongest clubs In the league at the start of the race. Eirat one thing happened and then mother. Defate “Jumped." Apper son fj uit. O'Connor got Injured, limmy Wilcox became 111. Barney Burch was forced to get new play ers. All of this Injured the Buffa loes' chunces. When the season first started, the Buffaloes looked pretty sweet. They played - good teamwork and hit hard. But you can't say that about the Herd now. They may hit well, but when an owner Is forced to substi tute on a ball club In the middle of i hut rate its pretty tough on that team's pennant chances. No one can say that Burch hasn't tried to get players, especially pitch , , H. But pitchers are hard to get. Bill'll, however, has succeeded In ending Manush, a very vale tide man o have around a club. He can play Mie outfield or the Infield and Is a ,,etty good hitter. But pitchers arc ceded st the Omaha ground! and Barney seems to he doing his level est to sign a few "chuckers It niav he that after the present Tuinha lineup pln\s together a while tiger it will get to going. We hope Li.

Marquard Theater Party Winds Up Strenuous pay for Tommy Gibbons St. Paul, Minn., July 7.—A* theater party tonight wound up a strenuous day of reception for Tommy Gibbons, St. Paul's "moral champion’' heavy weight boxer who returned from Shel by, Mont., this morning. Gibbons and his wife and three chil dren were thoroughly tired out, but happy at the end of the welcoming program in which thousands of per sons participated. Prom the time he stepped from the train this morning at the station until late today. Gibbons, whom Jack Dempsey, world's heavyweight cham pion did not knock out, was given almost continuous ovation. His ma chine was literally showered with flowers. In a short speech at Rice park following a parade, Gibbons said, "I am deeply touched by the reception tendered me in St. Paul," he said. "It is difficult for me to express my feelings. I hope to be given the op portunity before long to take my place as champion from St. Paul, the city of champions. If I made a worthy showing in the ring at Shel by, it was because I knew St. Paul was behind me. I was fighting for the home folks with the St. Paul spirit."

Just Because Fight at Shelby Was a Flivver There's No Reason Why Omaha Couldn't Stage Title Bout Lack of Railroad Accommodations and Nearness to Large Cities Sounded the Death Knell for Montana Affair on July Fourth. By FRED S. HUNTER. What would happen if Omaha should attempt to stage a championship fight? Would it be a financial success? Would it return a profit to the promoters? Or would it culminate in a monetary holocaust, as did the recent Independence day obsequies in Shelby? The answer is a simple one. It would depend wholly upon management. Many unkind remarks were mad*' before and after the Dempsey-Gib bons fight anent the sporting quali ties, or lack of them, Of Shelby. Great Kails and the state of Montana gen erally. These remarks were founded upon the impression that Shelby had no business to attempt to stage the fight. Which was true. But why was It true? Because It was Impossible to hold a championship fight in a little town like Shelby? Not at all. Because Sheleby had no one capable of as suming the management. Managed properly, a championship fight could be staged successfully al most anywhere that railroad accom modations were satisfactory. In Oma ha it would be a cinch. tan Make Money Outside N. Y. The theory is that It is possible to make money on a championship fight only in the eastern centers of popula tion is an erroneous one. Of course, it could not he expected that a fight in Omaha, or in any other city, for that matter, with the possible excep tion of Chicago, would draw the huge crowds that would attend in New York city. But a championship fight In Omaha could be rqade to pay, and pay handsomely. Atrociously managed from start to finish, the Dempsey Gibbons fight at Shelby attracted 7.000 persons who paid the regular prices of admission. With three times that many in at tendance at box office prices, the fight would have made money. Couldn't Omaha, with a properly man aged fight, draw three times as many persons as Shelby with a hopelessly mishandled affair? Easily. Another point. Shelby is not close to any centers of population. True, Great Falls is only 100 miles away, but Great Fills is a city of only 25, 000 Butte is a night ride away. So Is Spokane. Seattle Is 24 hours away. Other cities of consequence are still farther away. Omaha, on the other hand. Is in the center of things. It would have many overnight towns to draw from—Kan sas City, Denver. Des ,\hdnes. St. Louis, Chicago, the Twin Cities. And it taken hut a few hours more to come from New York to Omaha than it does to go from the twin cities to Shelby. Need SWHI.WtO In I inanee If. It would take from ffiflO.OM to $600,000 to finam-p a rhsinptonsh p light properly That would pay the fighters, build the arena, rare for promotional expense and 'assure the preliminary fighters of their money Twenty thousand persons would make a gat* of $600,000. It would, of course, f,e loo much to ex|>ert that a tight In Omaha would equal the $1,600,000 house of the Dempsey-Curpentler fight. hut It ought not to he difficult to stage s fight that would approach the $1.ooo, 000 mark. What about Dempsey’ That's the question one hears on every side. Apparently the champion's coterie of friends Is extremely limited He appears to he about as popular as a smallpox epidemic. Outside of Nick Wranek about every one w« met In Great Falls and .Shelby and on the trains returning to Omaha h id hoped tha Gibbons would render him unfit for any good use In the future. And they all seem eager to hear whether the champion Is slipping It's a question almost impossible to answer satisfactorily. The next fight, however, should tell the tale. Certainly It Is Dempsey was not the Champion of old when he fought Gibbons. The mauler, the man-killer, the superman was gone. But wheth er hla decline will prove permanent or whether it was merely a temporary lapse only another fight will reveal. This speculation, of course, Is hHSed on the theory that the fight was honest, that Dempsey really tried to administer sleeping powders to the shifty Gibbons. Neither Is It an attempt to detract from the ability of Gibbons who fought his own fight In his own way and. although It helped to make the bruwl dull and uninteresting from a boxing stand poind performed a very neat *nd business like Job. It woud stem on the surface that the only explanaticai for Dempsey's failure to knock Gibbon* out Is that the ehamplon ha* slipped. In the 15 rounds he must have hit Gibbons a thousand times more or loss. Each round was Just a succession of punches. He hit Tommy with every thing except the box ofllce Yet not once did he stagger the challenger. And a* Ihe end of the light Gibbons was without appreci able marks. < hump Didn't lla\p Steam That means only one thing—the champ didn't have the steam. Hut there Is this theory that must be taken Into account. I.ack of fight ing may have removed (he edge from the champion. It was two years since he had fought Ills train ing partner* were nothing to brag about. It Is a well known fact that a tighter litis to fight In order to re tain ht* skill, his -peed, his power. Just ny a hall player will lose Ills hatting eye with long absence from i he game This laek of fighting may he put down a* the reason Dempsey missed so often In hi* fray with Gibbons Hut can It ho accepted ss the rea son why those blows the champion did land did not put out Tommy's j light* early In the tight? Thuru sre numerous other angle*. Perhaps Gibbons Is a real tough cuckoo and somewhat Irresistible to knockout punches. Perhaps he kept moving so well none of Dempsey's blows landed solidly. Perhaps Demp sey's style of fighting Is peculiarly adopted to knocking bigger men silly, but ineffective against a smaller, fas ter man. So there may be many theories, many explanations. The most likely though seems to be that the cham pion has slipped, that his years of plenty are nearing the end and that the day Is not far off when a new champion of the world will come up with the dawn.
