Hon, a salesman, of St. Louls, is the ludkiest baseball fan in the world tonight. While thousands | are gcrambling for world's series tic- | kets, Hon has been givem & complete set by Ban B. Johnsom, president of the American League, accompanied by a persomal cheque for $100 and round trip transportation between St. Louis and New York. Hon's em- | ployers have given him leave of ab- sence at full pay to attend the games. And all because he solved the "pop bottle mystery," the result of Fielder Whitey Witt, of the Yankees, being struck on the head by a pop bottle during a crucial series in St. Louis recently, Witt was so badly Injured that he had to be carried off the fleld, and great indignation was | expressed over the incident in ail |sectioms of the country. Several re- wards were offered for the Ident- ification of .the supposed thrower of the bottle. Hom, who happened to have a seat near the spot where Witt was in- a letter to Mr. Johnson, he explained Just how 'the accident occurred. The letter sald Witt, while running, step- ped on the neck of a bottle, causing it to bounce up and strike him on | the head. Mr. Johnson was co well {pleased with Hon's explanation that he sent him the reward, railway and baseball tickets, Queen's In The Limelight, Toronto Ma#l and Empire. It a team of star players and lots of practice is a guarantee of a cham- { plonship, then the Intercollegiate { honors will go to Queen's this Fall. Last year the Presbyterians were very strong, and but for the lack of capable backfield substitutes to re- place the disabled and sick regulars the result of the race might have been different. George Awrey has a great collection of stars to represent the Tricolor this Fall, and they have been practicing faithfully for the | last two weeks. » | In recent years the big game of the Varsity season has been that with McGill, but this season the endeavor of Queen's to win the Intercollegiate championship seems to have dimmed the interest in the McGil} game, but there will be a capacity attendance on Saturday efternoon, when the Red and White and the Blue and White open the season at the Stad- fum. : | i ------------------ Carpentier Denies Retirement. "I will begin again in a few months for I'am far from giving ap boxing," sald Georges Carpentier, in an interview published in Le Journ- al, Paris, regarding his defeat last Sunday by Battling Siki. "On the contrary," he continued, "what has happened to me has made me want all the more to box as often as possible and to win. "It is not the first time I have have lost a match. The Dixie Kid, Frank Klaus and Billy: Papke beat me be- fore 1 became champion and I am not discouraged. It was my own fault that I was beaten." "What I will have to do now is to wipe out that defeat by a new series of victories. So I propose, first of all, to take a good month's rest and then take up physical cul- ture before beginning to train again. And I will have my revenge, I can promisq you." ------------------ Draw in Cup Game, At Glasgow on Saturday Clyde and Rangers played a scoreless draw at Celtic Park in the final for the Glas- 80W Assoclation Football Cup, Sie You not only read it, you s ing it.

And so Wednesday Clem, matched to battle Harry Willd dn a fifteen-round bout at Madison Square Garden, New York, had to prove that he knew something of the fistic art. The stage was set in Grupp's gym- nasium. An imposing array of box- ing experts, including the state commissioners, were on hand. For two-round turns, Johnson took on Indian Stanton and Jack Renault, the latter 'a Canadian heavyweight, and mussed up both considerably. It appeared Clem was "sittin' pretty." But just then the crowd--and Clem --Wwere startled. Jack Johnson, who lost the world's * championship to Jess Willard at Havana, climbed in- to the ring, It developed, greatly to Clem's relief, that Jack aimed to do only speech-making in that ring. At the end of a talk about hs plans, "Lil Artha" introduced his protege, one "Young George" Godfrey, tall end dark, ready to fire away at poor Clem, The crowd rather Mked the idea, and Clem, being an obliging 2 1 Uf | LH! 1 [14 He I i sort, took Godfrey on for a brace of rounds, and cuffed him around a- plenty. It sort of spoiled Jack Johnson's party, but it gave the fans a real good time. The wise ones from the Boxing Commission's office rather liked Clem's style, and so reported back to Willlam Muldoon, commission chairmin. As a result, the bout be- tween Wills and Clem probably will be given an official 0.K. / Clem Johnson is more than six feet tall, and weighs around 210 pounds. He met Wills once before In Covington, Ky., and from all ac- counts finished second.

One feature of the series is an ex- planation of the changes in the rul- es that is so well done it was used at the recent meeting of football coaches and referees held in New York to interpret the new changes.
