The Lincoln Ducklings, after win- i three in four from Omaha and two in three from Des Moinos during fag end of their eastern trip, home today to stack up against the Sioux City I i a in a three-game series. The bill for Sunday afternoon calls for a game at 2 o'clock. Lefty Blodgett was scheduled to pitch for the Ducks in the Saturday game, i Jack Halla and Red Stiles probably will face the Sioux in the Sunday twin bill. Halla has been pitching brilliantly i the past two weeks and his record comprises six successive wins, while Stiles made his debut with the Ducks Friday at Des Moines and was a potent factor in Lincoln's 7 to 2 victory.

Joseph are standing pat on their declination to pub a booster movement unless the league guarantees that the team will not be moved, and they seem to be determined to force the Dickerson- Isbell-Holland tiiurnvirate to go through with the bluff of taking the team to the Kansas burg. St. Joseph, in fact, refuses to take any interest in the baseball proposition unless the league guarantees that Holland is to step out as owner "of the franchise. As matters now stand, Hutchinson will take over unless St. Joseph puts up a purse of 3,000 not later than next Tuesday.

The feeling against Holland in St. Joseph is so bitter that there is scarcely an outside chance the metropolis of Missouri will move a hand, so the spectacle soon will be presented which the. Western league will foifeit a city of 100,000 inhabitants and take on one of the 30,000 class. The move will reflect small credit on -the business judgment of the Western league. As the St.

Joseph club now is con- Btituted, it is a. hopeless tailendcr, -which means that Hutchinson is al; most sure to rue its bargain. In order to recoup himself for earlv-season losses, due to his unpopularity in St. Joseph and the breaks in the spring tveather, Holland has sold the releases of Pitcher Hovhk and Catcher Moore to the Los Angeles club of the Pacific Coast league. Holland was anxious to include Pitcher Babe Adams in the Bale, but the ex-Pittsburgh star refused to be put on the auction block However, the loss of Hovhk and Moore will cripple the team and Hutchinson will be getting- only a squeezed lemon when the club is transferred.

BRITTON GAME FIGHTER NEVER DODGED CHALLENGE. Jack Britton is 32 years old. With a margin of seven or eight years over most of the top notch scrappers in the United States. Britton, has "been successfully defending the title of the wel- tei weight champion against all corn- After he decided he wanted to be king among the 142-pounders, Britton liasn't barred anyone. Twelve times he met Ted Lewis, the hard- hitting and shifty Englishman, and finally met him in a.

20-iound affair at Dayton, only to lose his championship. Britton, whose name is William J. Breslin, began fighting in 1905. He met all of them, beginning with the little fellows and working his tvay straight through the lightweight class. Th best of them were ftever too good for him.

He was credited with being the cleverest lightweight in the game, aside from Packey McFarland, who undoubtedly was a welterweight even in the best days of his lightweight career. Britton was charged with being a dancing master sort of boxer--one of the decidedly unpopular Freddie Welsh type, but his record shows plenty of knockouts over some of the toughest boys who ever fought in the divisions lie went through. Kid Farmer was one of the men who fell before the smashes Britton turned loose, and it would be hard to find anywhere in the records a boxer toughei- than Farmer. Britton also credits himself with a victory in eighteen rounds at New Orleans over Charlie White, but as a matter of fact, White was getting such a terrific cuffing that bout was awarded to Britton and he should be g-iven credit for a "technical knockout. Britton is a steady trainer, never out of condition, always ready to jump a few hundred miles and fight.

And he never has been known to really disappoint an audience. The times in his career when the newspapers has panned him for his boxing have been very few. Even his bout with Fackey McFarland in Milwaukee, when Packey was unmercifully hauled over the fiery coals of criticism, yielded nothing of Bevere centure for Britton. CASE OF BE'ZDEK A BASEBALL PUZZLE. The elevation of Hugh Bezdek to the management of the Pittsburgh club Of the National league is a wallop at every tradition in the national game.

The average major league magnate scans the ranks of the experienced players his choice of a Barney Drcyfuss has picked a. novice and put him at the head of the Pirates. Bezdek was an exponent of the glove game when in his late, teens, boxing Kor the past or three summers, Bezdek has been scouting in a "quiet way" for Pittsburgh, a Smoky City writer says, which means that Hugo did not know enough about the finer points of the national game to serve as a full-fledged road agent for the Pirates, vet this is the chap whom Barney Dreyfuss suddenly selects to manage his ball club in a major league pennant race. Charles A. Comiskey went into a class league to search out Clarence Kowland and to place the latter in charge of the Chicago White Sox, and the experiment violated all precedent, but Dreyfuss jumps the fence and picks Bezdek, a tyro IB the national pastime.

The action of Drej fuss is so unique that the Pittsburgh mogul may have selected Bezdek chiefly because of the iatter's physical prowess and fighting ability. There are dozens of baseball players, who have to be driven to do their best, and personal fear of the manager is the thing which spurs them on. This situation applies to almost every club in organized baseball. The strife and turmoil which are incidents of the national game do not al-nays manifest themselves on tHe field. Players have their quarrels and feuds, they have the habit of settling their differences in the clubhouse by rasortmg to blows Possibly Droyfuss, figures that Bezdek's bulging muscles and fig-htmg ability will tame a few of the tough boys whose names decorate the Pittsburgh pajioll.

If that belief has inspired the Pittsburgh magnate, better results the won column may result fiom Bezdek's choice. TROUBLES PILING UP ON BIG LEAGUE UMPIRES. There has been more big league trouble this season over alleged poor decisions by umpires than for several seasons past. Following a winter of unrest, during baseball players were severely criticised for a pronc- ness to frateimze on the tield of battle, to let things come and go in a sort of happj-go-lucky, all right fashion, this year has branched out into a truly dangerous one for the knights of the wire mask. Onlv a shoit time ago a veteran among the umpires of the American league pointed out that il it were not for the umpires, baseball IOIH ago would have deteriorated into same sort of rut that put a lifelong cuise on hoi he-racing.

He accused every baseball player of being a willing cheater, happy if he got away with a trick that would put something on the opposition. And theiein probably lies the trouble The umpires this yeai are just as conscientious as ever and the playeis probably are going to greater lengths in their attempts to put over the trick that will win plaudits from the grandstand and the managers. The baseball world was shocked almost to stiffness recently when John K. Tener, president of the National league, decided to slap a. $500 fine and a long suspension on John J.

JIcGraw for his attack on Umpire Byron. It hadn't been the custom of Tener to take such drastic action He had left the rough sort of executing up to Ban Johnson and Ban had ruled things ith such an iron hand that few infractions of the rule that umpires must be respected were found. Tener came out almost a year ago with a. firm statement declaring that baseball players would have to cut out rowdyism. The statement itself had an effect for quite a while and then the players started all over again.

McGraw's outbreak brought things fo a head. However, just to show that Tener's disciplinary measure had been passed over rather lightly, a'few weeks later, playeis and umpires had to insert themselves between Casey Stengel of the Dodgers and Jess Baines of the Braves. Stengel had accused Barnes of trying to bean him and a fight was imminent. Ban Johnson has always ruled things with an iron hand. He has taken the position that his umpires are absolute rulers of the playing field.

If any player aoubts the truth of this the proof of it is waiting any time he wants to start something with any of the arbiters. Ban invariably soaks the athlete who acts up obstreperously in an American league game. The difference between the two leagues lies there. If Tener has made up his mind to carry through the policy he laid down when he lit on McGra-n, better baseball is going to come forth from the elder circuit. Molnes.

Moellci's hitting is apt to keep him in the Booster lineup as a regular, as his predecessor. Spencer, was in a distressing stump. Peoria, 111., which was leading the pennant race when the Three-Eye league voted to quit for the year, is nibbling at a franchise in the Western league. The Illinois citv has the needed population.

The fan or reader who doubts that baseball occasionally needs its Bezdeks and scrapping managers, in order that the bad actors may be tamed, has a few things to learn with reference to the national game.

The writer has mind a pitcher who had been a consistent winner In former seasons. Of a sudden, he slumped in his flinging and was liturned a loser in a string of games. The manager was but the problem soon was solved.

The pitcher's battery mate was playing the bully; he threatened the hurler with a flogging and the pitcher had feared to change signals during his games. Under such a strain, it was easy to understand why the pitcher had lost his effectiveness. The manager then proceeded to switch catchers and the pitcher promptly perked up and regained" his winning stride. The isituation was aggravated -when another pitcher on the same club later complained against the same catcher. Under circumstances such as these, a Bezdek would have been a handy man on the ball team.

A catcher who would plot against the pitchers deseives stiffer punishment than a mere tine.
