MONDAY, JUNE 19, 1922, CRAPS TO CRICKET MORVICH LOSES 13TH. Champion Three- Year -Old Finally Goes Down to Defeat. Morvich, hailed as America's un- | beatable three-year-old, was beutsn in the Carlton stakes at the Aqueduct track, New York city on Saturday by Whiskaway, by three lengths, Whiskaway went the $7,600 mile in an 1.3-6 2-5. Snob II. was third, five lengths back. Horologe also ran. June Grass and William A., were scratched. Whiskaway got off in front, and made every post a winning one, beat- ing the marvel by three lengths at the finish, with Snob II. in the third place, : It was Morvich's thirteenth start, and the hoodoo evidently spelled dis- aster, for it was his first defeat. The great son of Runnymede ran at a ter- rific pace in a workout yesterday, which may have affected his chances in the mile dash this afternoon, but considering the pull that Whiskaway bad in the weights it was not a humiliating defeat. The big horse will, despite the loss, be shipped to Latonia for the great Latonia special to be run at that course next summer, _ COUNTY LEAGUE STANDING. Frontenac Group. Ww.

Health of "Big Six» Now Best in Two Years Christy. Mathewson, at Saranas Lake, is in better health today than he has been since coming here near- ly two years ago to fight the great battle for life. Matty is now able to go for fairly long walks every day. Those who meet him on the street are struck by his fine appearance. Ha apparently has regained nearly all of his former weight and has a fine, clear look in his face. Matty keeps pretty much to hime self. Now and then friends from New York come t6 see him, but not often. He has not made many ac- quaintances here. However, all the kids in the village know him and stare in wide-eyed wonder at the big fellow as Ls trudges down ihe streets. Despite the terrible slega he has gone through, Matty still is erect, broad shouldered, 'walking with that swinging gate that charac- terized him when he was the leading pitcher of the country. The doctors say that Matty has won his battle, but that he must be very careful, and that he is not like- ly to be able to go away from hers, even for a short viit, for another year. Matty does not seem to mind greatly his exile here, for he has gained health in this place, and he Is appreciative. However, friends Say he yearns to get back to New APPARENTLY "BEAN BALL" HAS STOPPED SHINNERS.

If his health continues to improve during the next year as it has during the last twelve months he may be able to visit New York {and his friends, his doctors say. But it is said Matty plans to live here for the most part for many years re- gardless of his ultimate compléte re- covery, Critic States Wills Has Very Bad Pair of Hands Harry Wills, New York, totes a bad pair of hands. This is not meant in the sense that they are ruinous to the first jaw they land on but that they are unsound. A critic of ao slight reputation has examined ths members in question, and according to his report, they are so badly mashed up from thumping numerous beads, mostly Ethiopean, as to be quite fragile. This is a most serious matter to a pugilist, particularly a hard punching heavyweight, We have no doubt that there is more truth than claptrap about ihe report. The critic in question is above suspicion in the matter of Judgment. It he says Wills' hands are inclined to be brittle, then write it down in the family bible that Wills' hands have not a thing in common with a concrete paving block.
