South High and Commerce
"Win School League Games
An atrempt to give kedrath.
Central high hurler, a rest, proved
fatal when South High's base ball
team sent five men over the plate
in the second inning, winning, 7 to
6. The game, is the first that the
Packer crew has annexed this sea
son and was marked by numerous
errors by the losers in several tight
pinches. '
Mangold pitched during the first
two frames. The southtown lads
had a fete day off his style of de
livery and piled up a big lead. When
the regular battery was sent in in
the third stanza the Centralites held
the South High nine and began eve
ning up the tally. Two runs were
added in the fourth inning and four
in the sixth to the Central total.
Hill of South high pitched easy ball
and fanned but one man. The big
pinch came in the last inning when,
with bases full and one out, Turner
stepped up to bat. Ayers, on third,
was caught off his bag, but Turner
walked to first and f jlled up the
sacks again. Logan was next man
up. A neat hit landed in Chamber's
mit at second and put the kibosh
on Central's hopes. "
Commerce High also tried giving
its hurler a rest. Rokusek was sent
to the mound, but, when the score
stood 5 to 2 in Creighton's favor,
Mahoney was sent in for the last
inning. He blanked the Creightpn
men in Short order. Five runs in
the last inning gave a 7-to-S victory
for Commerce.
Commerce High has won all its
games, while Central has split even
on the four. South and Creighton
have each won one "and lost three.
The Central-South High battle was
staged on the Muny lot, Thirty-second
and. Dewey,, and the Commerce
Creighton game ?was played on the
college diamond. "--o, s.;;.

Tennessee Rats Next
Opponents to Face
Armours at Rourke's
Business Manager Deleware an
nounces that the Armous have
signed the Tennesee Rats to play
them at Rourke Park on May 31
and June 1. The Armours will play
the balance of the season at Rourke
Park, despite the rumor that they
would be unable to carry out their
contract for the grounds because of
the loss of some of their star
players.' ' , '
Field Manager Harry Williams
has resigned but Oscar Williams will
take up the reins and a determined
effort to get Andy Graves to play
with Armours will be made. Art
Dyck will not quit the Armours and
if Andy can be landed, he and Dyck
will make the packers a stro a
mound combination. It is likely that
"Chugs" Ryan will do the receiving
since Harry Williams left them.
Twj or three new players will be
on hand within the next few days,
Delewa e declares.

Finish "Prty"
Street Car Joyride
Philadelphia, Pa., May 22. Leo
McCaulley and Charles B. McGoni
gal, returning home from a "party"
long' past midnight, "found" a street
car standing outside the street car
barn on Huntington street and
boarded it, one acting as conductor
and the other doing duty as motor
man. Then the fun began. A third
reveller joined them. The car started
up with a rush and sped down
Huntington and across Fifteenth
street, narrowly missing a north
bound car filled with workers from
the Philadelphia navyyard. After
riding back and forth on Hunting
ton street the "motorman," after
speeding the car up to the limit,
threw on the emergency brakes, and
the friction was so great that the
car caueht fire. Th fi r was vfin -
guished by street car employes.
r-onceman u eill, who had been
chasing the car for half an hour,
finally succeeded in hnarAintr tli
car and placing the men under ar
rest. All were held under bail of
$600 each.

RESERVATIONS
FOR TITLE BATTLE
EXCEED 270,000
Within Few Hundred Dollars
of Entire Receipts at Reno;,
Willard's Quarters to Be
Near Dempsey's.
Toledo, May 22. Seat reserva
tions for the championship battle
between Willard and Dempsey here
July 4 already have exceeded $270,
000, Tex Rickard, promoter, an
nounced tWhight. The entire gate re
ceipts of the Jeffries-Johnson bat
tle at Reno drew only a few hun
dred dollars more than that figure,
Rickard said.
Rickard said it the seat reserva
tions continued in such unexpected
numbers, the battle would draw
considerably over $500,000.
Dempsey did his first boxing to
day, stepping two rounds with
Willie Doyle, a lightweight. He
also took a swim in the icy waters
of Maumee bay. Earlier in the day
he took a six-mile hike on the roads.
Representatives of Willard are
considering leasing the Casino," a
club house, a few hundred yards
from Dempsey's quarters, artd Jack
Dempsey said he would have no ob
jection. "If Willard trains there, chances
are we'll meet on the road some
morning, and I'll certainly stop and
chat with him," Dempsey said.
Wife Hugs and Then
Kisses Guests at Her
Hubby's Dinner Party
San Francisco, April 22. "Oh,
what a lot of nice men there are to
love."
Mrs. Helen E. Merkelbach said
that and gave a hug and a kiss to
every male visitor her husband
brought home to dinner, according
to a divorce complaint filed recent
ly by William E. Merkelbach, branch
manager of the Western Union
Telegraph company.
A short while ago Merkelbach
took three friends to dinner. He
went into the kitchen for' a minute
and while there, he says, he heard
three distinct smacks from the liv
ing room.
Male friends were enthusiastic
abou'i Merkelbach dinners. There
was no gainsaying that.
Lanius Wins Metropolitan
Handicap at Belmont Park
New York, May 22. Over a'
sloppy track, G. D. Widener s 4
year-old chestnut gelding Lanius by
Llangibby-bouthern Bell, won the
Metropolitan handicap at one mile
at Belmont park today. This event
was the feature of the Westches
ter Racing association's opening.
Lanius was an outsider in the bet
ting, the favorite ' being T. E. Wid-
ener's Naturalist, which romped
home an easy winner of a six fur
long highweight handicap at the
Jamaica course yesterday, but the
public choice, finished fifth today.
There were seven starters, two of
which, Papp and Flags, acted badly
before the bunch was sent off to a
good start. The light weighted
Routledge was first to shoot in
front when the barrier was sprung,
with Naturalist almost on even
terms and Flags close up on the
inside. Nearing the first turn
Routledge dropped back and Flags
took the lead from Naturlist as
they turned out of the back stretch.
Flags led to the turn into the
stretch, where Lanius, nicely
handled by Jockey Loftus, jumped
into the lead and, full of running.
' Flaes was a like distance in front
of Star Master, which finished third
after a brilliant stretch run. Fore
ground out-gamed Naturalist, which
tired after reaching the head of the
stretch. Routledge finished sixth,
half a length in front of Papp, which
finished last. The winner's time was
1:45 2-5, and his owner's share of
the cash prize was $3,865. .
