A jinx seems to pursue Jack ("Red") , Murray of tha Oianta. preventing him fiora basking la the spotlight reeerrsd for heroes, even though Murray does berolo thing. - A dosen tlmea thla season Ksrraf ha performed the apeotaeulsxdone mm thins; that ahould merit his nam being biased through the next day's aacount of the battle. But something always hap pened later on that distracted tha atten tion front ' Murray's deeds. A short time ago the sixth inntnf ar rived with the Qtants on the short end (I I I to 0 snore. Two Olant rannsrs got on the bases, and then Murray belted oul Tr-tiome run, putting the Otante In, the lead. Did . Murray's feat feature la the next nornlng'4 story ot the battle? Nope, simply because In the very next inning the Cardinala ovcrshsdowed him ty making seven runs. During one of the "series played with the western clubs In New Tork 'Murray made a magnificent throw to the plate. killing off a runner. It saved the gameTi for tha Oianta for the moment. But Just when the writing persona were figuring on how to lead their story with Murray's accomplishment the( opposition got to the Olant pitchers, knocked a couple out of the box and did so much hitting that Murray's stunt waa forgotten. A few daya before that Murray doubled with two on haaea, putting the Otanta temporarily In the lead. But the oppo sition got busy shortly afterward, ral lied and beat the Oianta. thus, forcing the scribbling persons to overlook Mur ray's tlmvly two-bagger snd dwelt on more Important thing. " Why Not Have Clean, Healthy Sports for Children? Gibbons Easily the Middleweight King, Belief in New York NEW TORK. June . If ever there was the slightest doubt parsdtng the piieitlstls Mrh road regarding the status of "Mike" ' Olbbona of St. Paul since he came Into the open and declared himself a middle- j weight It has had thejkids put under It and hat elld out of exlatence. There la no good reaecn why the crown, vacant since the untimely death of Stanley Ketchell, should not be slipped upon the pompadoured brow of Oihbons. Gibbons has proved beyond question that he Is the claaa of the middle weights. A glance through tha list of contenders discloses none that hss a chance with the "Minnesota Kephyr" over the short route at any rate. It la true that Gibbons has never ventured Into the unknown and risky twenty-round- buslneaa. He has contented hlmeelf with . raking In the golden shekels while giving ten-round I lessons, but Is there any who will declare, and believe what he says, that Gibbons cannot ramble through twenty rounds and hold his own? ' Certainly circumstantial evidence is all la favor of Gibbons- being able to turn the trick without losing any of the prowese that has made one of the most popular boxers tn the game today. Glance through the layout of middle weights who are conceded to have a chance: "Young" Ahearn, "Mick" King of Australia. Leo Hours, "Eddie" Mo Ooorty, "Jimmy" Clabby. George Chip, "Dave" mlth of Austrslla, Jack Dillon, Frank Klaus and "Jeff" Smith. Com pare these men Individually with -."Mike" Gibbons and what's the gnawer? Of the outfit there are but two who are within several kilometers of being aa clever at Olhbona Ahearn and flabby.

Recently, on the . Upper West Side of ' New York there has grown ui) an outdoor gymnaalum where little tots 'can 1 e turned loose la the sunshine to play. The gymnaalum la perfectly equipped, traveling rings, vaulting buck, borlsontal bars and awlnga of every description af ford tha greatest pleasure to the school' tired children, and by the system em ployed it Is necessary to' have only one "gym-master' to care for the Infants and supervise their use of the apparatus.' ' 1 Teachers are dally realising that amuse ment and excitement are the life ot the child. He requires them as a plant needa w atari They are the essence of his ex istence. So the success of tha O'l'door gymnaalujn doe a not depend upon the number and variety of the gamea played, though they constitute an' important fac tor, but' the real benefit,' are ' witnessed In' the attitude of the children toward their.' lessons at the end .of i the play session. ' It Is a novel -sight to match the agility with which the youngsters many of them only 4 years old handle the ropes and tha traveling rings. They are the. Mvmg exponents of the old Greek pbUoeopher'a maxim that "yesterday Is dead: tomorrow unborn; today I live." Their peals of happy laughter atir the summer air aa they awing back and forth in the swings, cllrab high ladders to reach the rings and poise delighted At their prowess. Tlie picture on the left shows several tots of the outdoor '"gym" exercising on ladder.

The. large number, of. Injuries which are occurring make' a ruling necessary. Th endeavor will, however, be to hold as near as possible to .the spirit of the twenty-one player limit, and the rule which Will be presented will be so worded that it .will be Impossible to substitute for a play.r who has received an Injury of minor consequence. To Sacoomptkah thla a clause will be Inserted specifying a defi nite period that a player onoe on the list shall have to' stay out of the game, re gardlesa ot th. . possibility of a rapid recovery." . The period will probably be at least a "month and possibly longer. Buch a rule vtill make a club hesitate about asking -that one . of tha regulars be plaond on tho hospital list unless the injury .really, la of a character to In capacitate h'ui for a considerable time.
