If the odor Is present, it can be removed or at least greatly helped by putting about 50 pounds of charcoal broken up into small lumps in a flour sack. Tie the top of the sack and hang it in the cis tern, moving it about occasionally during a day or two, after which it can b? removed. The charcoal will absorb a good many of the tastes and odors of the cistern water. 1- W?? , I w Look only to for that famous flavor m Ppf* ^ ^ Slhlitz is perfectly brewed to the ^ modern taste.

We believe that the American league, magnates who wanted to abaudou the all-?tar event because they felt the National league was an Inferior organization, will realise now that the National Is still a major loop and will be forced to continue the anuual classic. But above all, we know that'American league will take this all-star tilt In real seriousness another year. The trouble this year Is that the magnates of the American loop really believed all that the magazines had beeu saying about the National league __h?|njj an Inferior organization. They prepared for the game that way. And. I'll explain why. They Ignored Hal Trosky, Cleveland 11 rat baseman and second leading hitter In the American leagueHank Greonberg, one of the leaders' In runs batted In and a home run clouter, was not in the lineup. Ureenbuerg definitely refused to go to Clncinattl because he felt he would not get u chance to play. And could tho American league team use him as a pinch hitter> It happened that the vital bluudei of the game was turned In by Lou Gehrig. It came in the seventh inning. With Frank McCormick on first, Leo Durocher laid down a bunt. Jimmy Foxx who had been shifted from first to third to make room for Larruping. Lou fielded the bunt perfectly. Ge-i hringer had fielded his position per-i fectly us he was looking for a hit andj run play. Gehrig rushed in to cover a bunt down the first base line. Consequently there was 110 one at first for Foxx to peg to. Foxx held the ball until he saw Gehringer dash for the sack and let fly with a perfect throw. Gehringer did not get there in time and so the records reveal the Detroiter as the goat. But that is far i'rotn the actual fact for it happens that Gehrig was tho goat. He rushed in to cover a bunt but failed to got back to his first base position when the bunt went down the third base line. New York sport writers have tried to make Gehringer the goat, declaring him to be "the perfect player who failed." Other sport writers point out that Gehringer was farther away from first than Gehrig when he tried to get to the bag. At least he tried. Gehrig stood flatfooted. So, there were Tro&ky and Greenberg, two high class first basemen, who were not in the lineup. And Red Rollfe, Yankee third baseman, sat on the bench when Foxx went to third. Rolfe, by the way, was the star in last year's game. Truly, the ways of basebal lmanagers are strange and in 1938 all-star event, the American league team lineplate. VOTING FOR ALL-STARS TO BATTLE PROFESSIONALS! to (By Skipper) The annual all-star-professional football classic, to be held at Soldiers Field in Chicago, on August 31, Is already attracting the attention of eastern and mid-western sport writers who are giving the makeup of the all-star lineup bf the all-stars. As yet scarcely any mention has appeared in the papers that circulate! In Camden, altho the nation-wide pop-j ularity contest to determine the makeup of the all-star team has been; under way for nearly a week. This poll Is taken over a two weeks period and the eleven collegians receiving the highest number of votes at each position, will make up the starting lineup against tho professionals. The only restriction in choices Is that tho players must have been seniors last year. The 1938 rivals will square away) with records showing one. win apiece and two ties. In 1934 the all-stars held the Chicago Bears to a scoreless tie. The next year the Bears won 5 to 0. In 1936 the all-stars tied the. Piedmont Lions 7 to 7. and last year defeated the Green Bay Packers 6 to 0 on Sammy Baugh's pass to Gayj nell Tlnsley. This year Baugh will again be ! pitching passes but as a professional. 1 Against the Washington professional team, winners of the pro league title last year, the fans will have their choice of such 1937 All-Americans as Charles Sweeney, of Notre Dame, end; Ed Franco, of Fordham, Tony Matlsti, of Pittsburgh, tackles; Mon| sky," of Alabama, and Joe Rouett, of Texas Aggies, guards; Carl Hunkle, Vanderbilt, center; Sam Chapman. ! California, Bryan Whitem, Colorado, and Clint Frank, Yaio, back?., and from a score of others that thrilled the nation during the last three years.

Hell drove a long fly to left which Glyburn let get past him and Derrick scored, Hell stopping at second.

'[ The score: R h E' Sinclairs 3 5 1 Merchants 1 7 4 Batteries: Russel and Plyler; Haynes and Williams. Kendall Defeat Wolves j An alert aggressive Kendall Hornet1 outfit stung the Wolves last Friday1 evening in a city softball league encounter by a 6 to 2 score. The Hornets bunched hits in two innings, the second and sixth and put over three markers in each. In the other innings the Wolf defense worked perfectly and with Rhame strutting his stuff 011 the hill, the Mill gang were helpless. On the other hand the Wolves were off on their swat power and could connect with Bill Reeves, Hornet hurler, but five times. One of the blows was a triple by West and scored the lone two runs of the Wall Street crew. The Hornets appeared in their new jerseys and looked like a dream ball club. In fact, the picture of the teams in action was highly pleasing, there being such a marked yet effective contrast to the Arabian patrol outfit of the Wolves and the colors worn by j the Hornets. To keep the playing area free of spectators, the city had an officer on" duty. Players were able to field Toul flies without falling over spectators. The bureau of recreation will have this police supervision in all'future games. The score: R H E Kendall Mills ..........611 l Wolves 5 2 Batteries: B. Reeves and E. Reeves; Rhame and Nettles.

Those Kiwanians, smarting under that 22 to 7 defeat handed out to them a week ago by the Rotary baseballors, have challenged the Rotary for a return engagement and on top of it all have promised the tribe of Basil Bruce a tasty licking this time. And so the Bureau of Recreation has scheduled tlfc fracas for next Thursday, July 21st, insuring the baseball fans and social eclat of the community another thrilling spectacle, featuring Leq Little's Scotch breetches and some classy sprinting by Messrs McLeod and Schlosburg. Manager Creed and Captain Tommy Bruce of the Kiwanis team are emphatic in their statements that this time the shoe will be on the other foot qjul it will be the victory march for the Kiwanians. Manager Bruce of the Rotarians asserts that the. shoe may be on the other foot but it will be the wrong size shoe and will pinch the tootsies of the Kiwanians.
