The Bismark Brewers ot Chicago, led by none other than the famous "Red" Cohen, rated the best pitcher in the Chicago district, turned the trick in both ends of the doubleheader that was played at the McHenry ball park Tuesday night.

Flaying, on a dry field and against better opposition than a week ago, the bdys displayed all the old fight and a broad knowledge of the fundamentals of the game to clearly outclass Waukegan in all departments. They scored eight first downs to one for the losers, who never seriously threatened. • _ McHenry took the fcicWff, mad? mer long and only last Tuesday eve- thirty-one yards on an end run by ning payed in the semi-finals for (Hughes, ran another end run the the National Softball championship, j other way and then pulled a long pass though the game was arranged on such short notice that there was no time in which to advertise. They lost their chance to go to Cleveland and play in the National finals when the Bismark Brewers took both ends of a double header with Red' Cohen, the amateur circles, on the mound. , The »Brew«rs had a real team iiitd should be a fitting representative of the middle west in the final series at Cleveland, which will be held next week. Cohen ranks alone ae a pitcher though Pflug did, show them something in a change of pace. -But Cohen isn't the only man on the squad; He h,ad a real battery mate in that tall, blonde lad, their shortstop is a snappy little player who makes an ideal leadoff man. At first they are well represented and their outfielders show* ed their stuff on different occasions. McHenry shouldn't feel badly at all about being trimmed except for the fact that one of their men seemed to quit when the score mounted against them, which was due in;ao small part to his own errors. the eighteen.

Lohr, general manage of Chicago's A Century of Pro grfess has purchased a 240-acre farm north of Barreville, it was learned, this week. The farm is known as the* old Kittle Major Lohr wai at the farm for a Short time Tuesday afternoon, stating that he was interested in a farm $c< And so ended one more meeting und^r the new kind of supervision- and I honestly and truly think that it is the best idea that ever came to the troop.

It is thought, however, that he will improve th«2 farm by erecting some new buildings and improving others. ; Although busy with his affairs in Chicago, the Major is very interested in his new property and drove oiit for a few minutes Tuesday to see th«- pro®rtss that was being made 1 o\v some improvements for duck hursting.

Lay seems to be about the best tackier on the team and keeps tbe old pep in the gang as he back$ up the line from his 'center position. Hughes is rapidly progressing as a kicker, passer and open field Tunner. Vycital's work at end has improved over last year and he promises to be a real menace to all teams. Justen, and Beckenbaugh, the 140- pound guards, are' making up for their lack of size by playing a bangup game and leading^ the interference in Mert Metzger style. At tackles, Walkington and A1 Boehlke are stalwarts on defense, but have yet to prove their real value, as the big test bas not yet arrived. George Johnsofi and Chet Howard are vieing in the backfield to see which will gain the distinction of -becoming the team's best blocker and so far both are doing excellent jobs of it.

We were all satisfied with the outcome of the Marquette-Northwestern game last Saturday. With the usual crowd of eager boys piled into \ six cars we "popped" into the mighty oval of "Dyches Stadium" and crossed our fingers for the team we hoped to win.

V LUMLEY RELEASES TWO IBSH SUSPECTS Laurence Grabezynski and Aloysius Zielienski, suspects arrested in ChicagQ last week in connection with the robbery of the Emma Ibsh home last January, were released from custody Saturday arid charges dropped against them by State's Attorney V. S. Lumley. The two, it was announced by Mrv Lumley, had convinced the state they were innocent of any part in the robbery. The other two, Clara Sapinsky and Edward Grabezynski are being held for further investigation and their cases continued until October 5. Miss Ibsh was unable to establish definite identification of the prisoners, it was said. She is the only witness in the case because she was alone in her home when the robbery was committed. awhile. Ask Joe Regner if it doesn't. Joe had the misfortune to pick the demon of the outfit and the Jack threw him so hard that he clicked a pair of ribs and lamed his shoulcter. Fans around the West Side listened to the opening game with grfeat interest and not a few of them thought that they could distinguish Eddie Boss' voice above the uproar as Eddie and his wife went to Detroit with the intention of going to the world series. Not that their imagination was carried away by Buag' nicltnaipe or anything like that. the two teams met and McHenry won, but this time the game will be on foreign soil and the outcome may be different. Coach Orr is anxious to see just what his lads can do against opposition worthy of the name and he thinks Saturday is going to be the day to find out. Those who saw action in last week's game are Leo Lay, Justen, Becken baugh, Boehlke, Walkington, Vycital, Marshall, Wolf, Hughes, Johnson, Howard, Peterson, McDonald, Huck, Cooke, Martin, Miller, Frisbv, Adams, Baur, A. V. Freu»d and Colby.
