IX COMPLIANCE WITH A DEMAND MADE BY PRESIDENT DAVID Fultz of the International League, the Reading club has instituted injunction proceeding's against Harry "Bud" Weiser, the Reading's left fielder who jumped the Reading Internationals to play with the Steelton team of the Bethlehem Steel League, restraining Wiser from playing in Pennsyl-ania.

and possibly elsewhere. Weiser is a former Wilkes- Barre State Leaguer- eiser desertion has greatly incensed the International League officials and supporters, who feel that the time has arrived when something must be done to protect organized baseball from outlaw organisations harboring contract jumpers. "Bud" Weiser deserted at a most inopportune time for the Marines, who were about to board the train Tor a two weeks' trip, and gave the Reading management no time to prepare for the vacancy in the lineup. Now Scouts of the Steel League are trying to get other International circuit players to jump. 1 ERNIE K00B PITCHES NO HIT, NO RUN GAME CARPENTIER IN SYRACUSE BOUT Famous French Boxer Will Stage Exhibition With Sparring Partner Tomorrow Night Great Interest in Bout.

GUILE BALDWIN STREET, ELMIRA Team Will Clash With Firestone Tire Company Arctic League Club in Mid-week Engagement at Dunn Field. That the Arctic League management is endeavoring to give fans the best possible baseball is evidenced 4in the announcement today that the famous Firestone Tire Company team of Akron, Ohio, will plav hera Wednesday afternoon, July 21- This will afford the many employes of places that close Wednesday afternoons, an opportunity to witness a fast midweek contest. The Akron team is the firsfc, club that the Arctics have ever booked for a tilt on any day other than Saturday and Sunday and their efforts to provide an atraction for the fans, who cannot attend the mid-week tilts will undoubtedly he appreciated by many.

It is possible that other games will be booked for Wednesday. It is necessary to r.rocure an unusually strong- club to make the Wednesday date attractive and the Arctics intend to be sure of their ground before they go in for games during the middle of the week- "HASBEENS" AFTER KAYSEES AND F. BIG SQUAD REPORTS Manager Clair Tucker of the "Has-beens" today issued a1 challenge to the Knights of Columbus and Father Mathew baseball teams. The "Has-beens" had their first practice last night at the No. 2 grounds.

It is said that 75 candidates have reported to Manager Tucker. Teams desiring games with the "Hasbeens" are requested to telephone Manager Tucker at 443-J. The tentative lineup of the "Has-beens" follows: McPherson, Tun-ney, E. Kerwin, lb; T. Kerwin, 2b; A.

Kerwin, ss; John Towell, 3b; Mcr Mahon, Ryan, c.f.; McCarthy, r.f. Leon Cadore. Some of the old boys probably would laugh if it were suggested to them that mi.itary training helped Leon Cadore, young pitcher of the Dodgers. In that recent record-breaking duel he staged with Joe Oeschger of the lioston Hrai. We speak of that 26-inning 1 to 1 no.

But there is every indication that the war had a hand in Leon's showing. Why? First of all, Cadore. while in the army, learned more than ever the need, of physical fitness. He had learned to take care of himself to husband his energy and vitality for the "big strain." He' had learned coolness under the fire of cannon and machine guns. He went into the extra-inning part of that contest with training he would not have had but for the war.

When the usual nine-inning span was over he settled down to a long siege. He set an even pace and tried to hold it instead of pitching his heart out in the tenth or eleventh as many a youngster would have done. And the fact that he held the Braves runless in those wctra sessions shows that he was pitching stellar ball. He was pitching eyes wide open, too, as he showed when he saved him self and his teammates from defeat by one of the Stirling plays of the game, a play for the runner at home in which he fielded the balL Joe Oschger had been through the long grind before a twenty-inning tie game. He was set.

But Cadore was fighting a new game in new territory when the game began to drag. And it looked as though he fought his own campaign as he had been taught to fight against the Germans. Cadore is a youngster in years and in the big show. He was looming up as one of the star youths in the National League in 1918 when the war came. Cadore is a former Wilkes-Barre State League pitcher.

MAY ENTER MEET A track team from the Elmira Free Academy may represent the school at the interscholastic track and field meet at th Syracuse University Saturday, May 22.

WARNER QUITS UMPIRING JOB Former Manager and Catcher of Binghamton State League Deserts League at Baltimore, and Returns to Akron. Another good baseball umpire has gone bad as the result of the riding tactics of the Baltimore team of the International League, says the Binghamton Press. H- is Jack Warner, who managed and caught for the Binghamton Club in the old New York state league.

Jack was assigned with Dall Derr to handle the Baltimore-Akron series In the Maryland city. Jak got in had right at the start, when he called a few close ones against the Orioles. One game he called Boley.out as the tieing run was crossing the plate and the crowd started on the field. Police protection was necessary t. keep the mob away from Warner.

The next day Warner failed to show up on the field and nothing was heard of htm for a few lays- He is back on the Job again at Akron. TIIK EASIICST THING. About the easiest Thing in the world Is to find an excuse For tearing up A city street. "Whiskers are going out in Mexico. WHERE WE STAND XOAV.

BUT KIDS WAS BORN TOO SOON Captain Kidd was born In the front room, upstairs, in the 18th century. Little is known of his early iife, except that he attended the common schoo.s, where he learned to use a cutlass, sail a boat, count Spanish doubloons and sing: "Sixteen Men on a Dead Man's Chest." The date of the Captain's birth, although obscure, is important, for it was then that he made his first mistake. He was born two or three hundred years too to make a conspicuous success of the occupation he decided to follow that ot piracy, but now known under a different name.

Being of philosophical turn, as well as one of the bravest men that ever scuttled a ship, he thought that the slowest way to accumulate a great fortune was to work for it at one doubloon a week. So he decided to let others work for it, and then take it away from them. He had a wise idea, but as we stated befortt he was born too soon to exercise it to its capacity. He lacked modern methods and efficiency. Captain Kidd was direct-action pirate.

He went right out with his boat and held up every Spanish Galleon that Hew a sail along the Cas-tillian When any one demurred he gave said party a bit of exercise down the piank. In the course of forty he had carved his way to eminence and was feared and hated by all. By patient and conscientious effort immense fortune in Spanish doubloons, which he buried in the sands ot his native island in strong chests. There was believed to be 458 chests' of this money of a total value of $368 in the present U. S.

currency, which was quite a bit of money in those days. Profiteering was crude then, and the Captain took a chance. Mrs. Kidd never knew whether her husband would be home to supper. But that isn't so strange when you analyze it a lot of wives today find themselves in the same predicament, but for different reasons.

Captain Kfdd had to go out after his. People didn't take it to him. He didn't dare sit in the club window and blow cigarette smoke dlstainfully at the passing proletariat. But as stated before, Captain Kidd made a great mistake in not deferring his birth until now. He could have tied the present day Captain Kidds to the mast.

With his ability and their opportunity mercy! We hate to think of it. Won. Lost, P.C. Boston 10 5 .667 Cincinnati 14 8 .626 Brooklyn 10 8 .556 Pittsburgh 10 9 .526 Philadelphia 9 11 .450 Chicago 10 12 .455 St. Louis 8 12 .400 Cew York 6 12 .333 REB0RED CYLINDERS Kansas City, May 12.
