crown by the ily Malcewlcz, but the A double play halted the outburst. Ily Ht.NRY Lack of discipline, because then was no central authority and disregard of small but lmprrtant detail in the arrangements handicapped the American athletes who were successful winning the 1924 Olympic games by a comfortable margin. It should have been a much iarg margin. It hss been pointed out nany times that better en.ls could be obtained if "'e team should be handled in units Instead of one big unit. That is to say that the.
management would be easier if the swimmers, the track and field athletes, the boxers, wrestlers, fencers, were not al) thrown together. This could done but It would take much mor money and for that reason would not be practical. With all the athlete togeftjei social distinctions are drawn. Athlei.ei of one group look down upon athlete of another class. The Yale rowlni crew, for Instance, would not llv with the team In Paris and had iu own exclusive quarters.
Tt.e" wer entitled to it, however as they pale the bills, but It caused hard feelings There were many cases of pett larcenies around the camp and tni boxing squad was suspicloned Just because they were boxers. Some ol the wrestleis made a show out oi themselves In public places In Parle and the whole squad was looked down on for It. The athletes who lived In tns "Olympic village" were looked upon as pets and the less favored lads in the big csmp thought they were entitled to go their own way in like fashion. There was no care taken In allotting space to the athletes. The boxers and wrestlers who engaged In night competition would get berek to camp late.
There would be nothing to eat and they would raise a row about it and awaken other athletes who needed the rest for the next day's competition. Some of the at'Metes who had finished their competition and were allowed to break training were ouar-tered with athletes in training and naturally the care-free boys could not be expected to sit around they were In a church. There should have been separate places for non-combatants. Athletes could sneak off to Paris and if they missed the last bus for the camp they could go down and share a bunk with an athlete In the "village" and wake up the whole A run came over In the sixth without the aid of a hit. Cox walked.
Riviere snatched Woehrs" arm wallop and threw It Into center field. He next tanned Devlvelros, but Tobln walked crafty cnampion, aimost, out, num series of deadly hook-scissors, caught the tearing, aggressive challenger off guard Just as the end seemed near and the title about to topple from Lewis' head. Lewis spun Malcewlcz to the floor with a thud and won the deciding fall after the first hsd been won by Lewis and the second by (to -fill the bases and Hearn helped is cause along rlth a sacrifice fly that scored cox.

CHI CAW PITTSBURGH I AH Jos 34 165 BUSINESS IS BAD Baseball in Shreveport has gradually become bad business. With the loss of a couple of Saturday and Sunday games due to rain, and coupled with the failure of the Sports to get out of the second division, the Shreveport club is said to be running far in advance of 10,000 behind their attendance for the first three months of the 1927 season. It is said the decrease will go closer to 13,000 than the other mark. The Sports were just about able to hold their own in games won and lost for the present first half and with all of the clubs in the circuit strengthening for the last part of the flag race it is doubtful to see how the home nine can better their standing by September. The Sports bosses are as worried as the fans.
They realise that the present campaign is going to be a costly one. They had a few good breaks at the close of the 1927 campaign by being able to dispose of players but it's going to be difficult to find more than one man on the present squad who will draw a price from the big leagues. Last fall the Sports sold Spencer Harris, Johnny Gill, Al Williamson, Grady Adkins to higher company and later disposed of Roy Moore, George Distell, Catcher Pete Ritchie, Ching Taylor and Maurice Clark, traded Nason and Maderas. This spring Williamson was returned by the White Sox but tlay, Memphis Bryan. Blrm.

That trading represents in the neighborhood of $40,000 worth of players that will be missing this year along with a general decline in attendance. It will be the club treasury that will (eel the blow.
The Sports' pitching looks promising on paper. Williamson, Wilkins, Thompson, Dickerman, Estrada, Karpp and Hearn do not look so bad. In a few weeks Joe Brown's busted finger will be healed sufficiently lo allow him to take the hill. The question is, will pitching alone make the grade for the Sporls in view of the strength being corralled by the other trams? play Swenson to Turgeon to Stanton. Base on balls Littlejohn 1.

Atlanta, Juno 26 (). After spotting pionship will be wen either by Tllden or Lacoeto and the chances of a desperately fighting Tllden tire considered bright unless he should decide to sacrifice individual glory and protect himself for the American team In the Davis cup matches. Lott, Hennessey and young Junior Cocn are not as highly regarded here as they are at home principally because the English people have not seen them and they have seen so much of the star French players.
The trophy for the woman's championship Is ready to be handed to Helen Wills, the defending champion. Britain had hopes of offering a real contest this year In little Betty Nuthall, but she is wsy off her game and Miss Alleen Bennett will have to carry the colors. Ordinarily the Bennett miss would not rank high in a field of challengers Including the beautiful Senorita De Alvarez, the equally beautiful Fraulein Aussem and Kea Bouman, but Miss Wills has said she regards Miss Bennett as the most dangerous player in the tournament and the Brltlh fans are pleased to believe her. Miss Bennett lacks the nervous temperament of the Spanish champion, she has had more experience than the German beauty and her game Is better balanced than the Dutch star's and she may meet the great American star in the final round.

This is the first time in the history of the Southern Association that the pennant race has been halved and the Birmingham Barons have won a right to have a sayso in the deciding of the 1928 championship. Should they triumph in the last half they will have undisputed claim for honors and automatically become opponents of the Texas league champions for a play-off for the disputed championship of Dixie. If they fail to win in the scmond half they will be forced into a pliy-off for the Dixie series, meeting the team that beats them out. The race in the Southern Association has found the Barons setting a mighty pace with Memphis, Mobile and New Oreans following in the wake. The real surprise of the circuit, though was the playing of Molton Stock's Mobile They were rated to contest with Little Rock for the cellar and instead have been fighting it out among the first division clubs.
They will be among the first four when the curtain is rung down. Atlanta was one of the big disappointments. In- (Continued on Fallowing Pale.) ng the Travelers, 6 to 1. hero today. Soore: R.
