At the Indiana State shoot the, ninnerup and man who will rep- j resent the state In the National Ama teur < 'luimpinship race at the Grand American Handicap in Chicago, August 5-9, was a uniformed "Jackie" from the Great Lakes naval camp, R. H. Arvin, who will be a factor to reckon with in the event. Question: What has become of the federal migratory game law? CHARLES GREEN. Peoria, 111. Answer: The House and Senate conference committee of Congress have again been working on the smoothing out process and the bill, which supplants the one promul gated in 1913, has been passed along for the President's signature at which time it is supposed to become effective. The salient features Qf the newly-formulated bill Is the pro hibiting everywhere of the sale of migratory game and a bag limit of twenty-five on snipe, plover and rail. Why don't the United States Su preme Court come out of their lethargy, rendering a decision on the constitutionality of this law, which was declared against in the state of Arkansas. Question: Notice the Bupont Powder Company are promoting crow shooting in 1919. What is the idea, are they considered a table del icacy? JOHN METZINGER. Lafayette, Ind. Answer: The cr(\w Is a nonuseful bird from any and all angles, with their cannibalistic proclivities and Instincts. They prey upon tho young Df every species of the bird families. The Pennsylvania Game Commission Is of tho opinion that each crow destroys more wild life than any fox, weasel, wildcat, mink or human hun ter. Many farmers claim that con tagious and infectious diseases, such as foot and mouth disease, also such In fact many afflictions suffered by livestock are carried by crows. The complete extermination of the crow 'amily would be considered a direct blessing to wild life and the crop raising contingent.

Webster, who is holding down the sporting editor's desk on The Toronto (Canada) World while the regular incum bent of that position is fighting at the front, proved herself to be a somewhat sarcastic and rather venturesome lassie by the way she i handled Jess Willard the other i day in a leading article. This is I what she says: "Like all other spotlighters. he is a drawing card, but he has it all over the others like a dollar over a dime, for the very fact that the average man is anxious to see just what kind of a body can support a head as large as his. This is the real secret of his suc cess in the circus business. "Since being crowned the white hope he has made more enemies than any other one in the country. First of all, he made the mistake of his young life when he went to the mat, figuratively speaking, with Tom Jones, his manager, or press agent, as we understand Willard wished him to bo called. At any rate, whatever Jones was, he knew enough to keep the cham pion from bleating his egotistical ideas all over the lot, and, inci dentally, making himself the laughing stock of America. Then, fortunately, like many thousands others, he permitted the sudden, smiling fortune to go to his head, but sad to relate it did not have the effect on his head which it has on nearly all the rest of mankind. He did not burn up the bright paths buying wine for pretty chorus ladies, nor did he scatter Broadway with {IOO bills, as did one other of our champions. Nay. nay. Pauline, not that—he merely tucked the roll Into his pocket and had his tailor sew it up. Then he went and bought a hat, three sizes larger than he was In the habit of wearing. After that feel ing that he should spend some of | his money, he bought one of the I best-playing circuses in the busl ! ness. "He refused from that time on ! to allow fighting to be discussed; ! that Is, he refused to allow any | one to suggest that he fight again. When the newspapers, unable to I stand his overbearing, thank God for myself manner, panned him to | a point that would mean murder to any other man, he handed , them the stinging retort: 'I am afraid to fight any man who Is in | the field because I might forget | myself and hit hira as hard as I can. Should I do this I would | undoubtedly kill .them.' " HAHRISBtJRG TELEGRAPH AROUND TH Jack Dempaey, phenomenal heavy weight who put Fulton to sleep in jig-time, has signed to meet Billy Miske for a purse of $15,000. Here is one that Uncle Sam should look over. Other day Miske tilld Bob Edgren, the boxing expert and writer that he was afraid of Dempsey. "I dont want to meet him" said he. "This fellow can't help knocking them out." Edgren comments: "Hav ing seen Dempsey with Fulton, I don't blame Miske for not wanting to fight him. Miske was absolutely right. Dempsey would have knocked Miske out, even if it had been an exhibition. For this Dempsey is no staller, no exhibition fighter. He is the nearest thing to a real champion that has shown in the ring since John L. Sullivan traveled about the coun try "knocking 'em dead" with his hefty wallop. Big Steve Terkes will play no more this season, says Manager Coc kill, but he wiU be around to coach. With his busted tendon in a plaster of Paris cast, Steve has time to read these days and observe. "People do not give sufficient credit to the Chi nese" says Steve. "They're smart: cute. Now what do you know about that Chink when the hobo called him out for some eats. "Like fish?" asked John. "You bet y'r sweet life I like fish" says the hobo. "Call Fliday," says John. Say, now, can you beat that? Heine Groh continues to lead the National League swatsmen, but with ] a smaller margin than he held last j week. Heine has only a three-point advantage over Zack Wheat, the Dodger outfielder. Charley Hollocher the Cub shortstop, ranks third on the list with an average of sixteen points less than the leader. Hollocher leads the circuit in the number ot hits made, with one hundred and eighteen, nine less than the number George Burns has made in the American. Fitzgerald, who has been playing j regularly for the Phils, for the last I wteks, leads the Moran sticksmiths j with .309, with Fred Luderus second j on the team list, with an even .300. Stock Is third, with .278, Williams fourth with ,272, Bancroft fifth with .258, and Cravath sixth with .229. Flying seems to be more or less a fad among the male nators of the country, nearly all of the more prom inent ones enlisting in this branch of the service. Norman Ross, one of the greatest swimmers in the coun try, is now a fulliledged aviator, hav ing received a commission as second lieutenant in the Air Corps. His graduation from the training school at San Diego should make it easier for him to attend many of the swim ming races in and around the coast during the next few weeks while he is adding finishing touches to his knowledge of the aircraft.

West End Juniors With Kid Pitcher vs. Belmont Another lively attraction In base ball thls # evening will be the West End Jr.-Belmont game at West End grounds. Belmont has Apper warm ed up for the fray and since this able flinger, working for Reading, won last week at the Hill League game, he may be considered some twirler. Against him will be pi,tted 14-year-old Dick Whlchello, who Is setting the town aflre with his re- BLSfluUxlA foursome at Philadelphia Cricket Club, has been playing the most re markable golf of any woman in the country of late. In her tour of the east, partnered with Bobby Jones, she has been making better scores than Alexa Stirling, the national woman's champion, and Perry Adair. Baltimore's pennant chances about vanished when Jack Dunn's men fell before Binghamton in the opening game of the series, 4 to 1. The vic tory put Bingoes nine full games ahead of the Dunnmen, and nothing but the most phenomenal sort of a winning streak would land the flag for the Monumental City boys, who are also being led in the league race by To ronto. "Red" Crane, familiar to Har risburg fans for some years, is short stop for Dunn now. Jack Dempsey unquestionably is a real fighter. He also has proved him self a first-class ringster. His wins ever Gunboat Smith, Carl Morris, Jim Flynn, Bill Brennan and a host of near good ones mark him as A-l. He is not a Griffffo at cleverness, but a Ketchel with the old slam. Most of his tights have ended in knockouts. He is of the Ketchel type, a ripp ing, ringman. He stands six feet and weighs 195 pounds. Billy Delaney, who made Jeffries and Corbett champions of the world always said that a man weighing ISO pounds was big enough to beat any man living. Billy didn't like the very big men. He wouldn't handle a fighter who had a week left hand. This Dempsey has a left that would have made Bill weep If he could have seen it. A typical Ketchel left. He either rips with it or hooks it to the head. There is no way of figuring it. When any opponent takes it on the chin there'll be nothing else to do but to start with the numbers. Here's the kind you like to hear. The boxing chaps are telling- about Joe Chip, of New Castle, who jnet and conquered some good boys in Philadelphia and is now .at Camp Greenleaf. This is an Interment camp and a big German imprisoned there boasted the other day that he "could lick a dozen Americans with one hand." This was said to the Captain and thinking a moment he summoned Joe Chip to give the Hun a licking. Joe declined at first, say ing he had nothing against the Dutchman, but when told what he had said Joe obeyed orders. They were put in an enclosure and in forty sec onds the Hun was out cold. He has never boasted since. Arrangements have been completed for the World's Championship, 18.2 Balkline Billiards, to be held at the Boston City Club, in Boston, com mncing November 1, 1918. The en tire gross receipts of the tournament will be contributed to the American Red Cross without any deductions. Each pJayer will have to pay an en trance fee of $250 to accompany the i entry.
