over Massachusetts by three matches to
two In the final contest for the Lesley
Cup over the links of the Baltusrol Golf
Club today. In a way the Bay State
golfers were better pleased In that their
two lending pairs won over their oppo
nents. Francis Oulmet, the natlonnl
amateur champion, bore the brunt of tht
contest, for his partner, F. II. Hoyt, was
awfully weak at times. Oulmet's good
golf, however, was largely responsible for
the defeat of Oswald Klrby, the Metro
politan champion, and Fred Hcrrcshoft by
2 and 1.
John G. Anderson and Samuel K. Sterne
won over Jerome D. Travers and Gllman
P. Tiffany In a match that went to tlu'
home hole. The Metropolitan pair was
two down by the time the third was
reached, but through fighting hnrd they
leveled the match at tho turn. From
there on It was a yee-saw affair with
the Bostonlans winning the seventeenth
and halving the eighteenth for the match.
Max R. Marston and Gardiner W. White
won on the home green from Ray R. Gor

ta the turn with many halved holes, and
the .Metropolitan pair, through good golf,
won two out of the next four holes. This
margin was ruluced by one when the
seventeenth was reached, and half at the
eighteenth left Marston nnd White win

half a stymie to get a live.

Since baseball first became a game
"piano less" has been tho name for guys
with hefty pins. From California up to
Maine they've used It time nnd time again
on geeks with wddcbullt shine. I guess
you fnns'll all agrco that monakcr fits
BirJIe Cree, that comeback on the Yanks.
For Birdie Is the peer today of all tho
guys who have that way of runnln' all
to ahanks, (
Rut Birdie's legs don't get him much.
It's more tho way he swings that crutch
for onetime peerless Chance. His wal
lops have the safe hit sound an" when
he whirls his stick around the fielders
ntnrt to dance. The Yanks don't stack
well In the race, but that ain't Birdie
Frank's disgrace. He gives 'cm all he's
gfet. Ho just keeps up his lusty biff
It doesn't 5-eem to mattor If tho whole
team goes to poL
Frank got his start In Washington. Not
D. C no, wo mean the ono In J. K.
Teller's State. This chunky little gent
came through an' went up to tho New
York crew in nlr.cteen-hundred-elght.
I.ast yenr Chanco thought he'd got too
slow an" uhlppcd him down to old Balto.
This vear Chnnce thought again. He
thought he'd better change hU mind. So
once more Franklc Cree was signed by
Frankle Chance's pen. Copyright by A.

"Gunboat" Smith and "Cyclone John
ny" Thompson have been matched to
fight six rounds noxt Monday night at
the Duoucsne -Garden, Pittsburgh, and
tht sportsmen of that section should be
In their glory. On paper this promised
battle Is the brut that haB come to our
attention for some time.
Battling Nelson has allowcd'the war In
Kurope to go to his head and wants to
fight again.
Imagine old Methusaleh with his beard
down to his kneeB and his locks of snowy
whiteness nil nrlppllng In tho breeze;
his face all rough with wrinkles, such ns
garnish any sage, his eyes all red and
theumy from his most exceeding age
Imagine this description, and there yon
nre. blng! blng! with a picture of Bat
Nelson ns he totters In the ring.
Here Is tho evidence that tho Braves'
pitchers arc cracking:
September 23 James, 3; Cincinnati, 2.
September 25 James, 4; Cincinnati, 3.
September 24 Rudolph, 5; Cincinnati, 0.
September 25 nudolph. 2; Cincinnati, 0.
Those St. I.ouls Browns nre up to their
old tricks of "busting" winning streaks.
THE GOLFERS' APTERMATH
A recent Incident calls to mind several
repetition of tho unusual that occurred In
tho Ilala tournament. In four Initancia
matches ere lost on the 18th green, which
In this cao was the ninth, and each match
uas won and lost under similar clrcum
stuntrs. Iluth players drote the green hlch calls
for a niashle shot. In each Instance the man
who waa ono down putted first and hung on
the edge of the cup for a sure three. This
mailo It necesnary for the man who uas one
up to get a tna or a three to win the match.
In all cases the two was tried for and re
culled In knocking the opponent's ball Into
tho cup for a two, while the "puttie." it the
word may be used, had to take a three and
the matches were alt squared.
The Una! match In the St. David's tourna
ment bttween Howard W. Perrln. of the
Merlnn Cricket Clut,. and J M. Tnomrson.
"i the Sprlnghateii I'ountry Club, was one of
the .lost exciting of the season. Hath men
had been going along steadily, and at tho turn
Perrln was one up. He then accumulated a
lead of three holes, but b perfect work on
the laat threo holes Thompson squared the
match and an extra hole had to be played.
Playing the first again Thompson sklid his
drlie, while Perrln made a supreme cftrt
and drove a tremendously long hall down tho
middle of tho course Th- bunker that guards
tho green kept Thompson from pUiiig a
nrassle In a last effort to get homo and he
ptaed an Iron around the bunker, but it wji
short and Perrln. bv a psrfect mashle shot,
landed wll up on the green, making a four
almost absolutely certain Thompson's up
.rnaili was too hard and with It his laat hope
went a-gllnimerlng. It was a beautifully
fuuhl contest.
Alexander II Klndlay. the pioneer of golf
In thla country ani known to his many friends
a. "Alec " Is still plavlng a game that will
rank with the best. Not long azo ho negoti
ated tho IS holes at the Hprlnghavcn Country
Club In 71. which Is abuut as good aa un
body could well ak for Probabh one uf the
beat shots that KlndU etcr pulled oft was
on the Wooland coume at uburndale. Mass .
Outinel' home iours. Tho hole was of tho
dog-leg tarlel). It seems like tho fourth, as
he writer recalls It and the second shot hi 1
to be a long ono and had tu run around a
iorner of the woodi. to Mud tho green. Kind
lay's second shot was plaed with a cleek -tnd
a deliberate slice that sent the ball circling
around the woods and allowed It to come to
rest on the edge of the grtvn. It was a
mister shot by a master uf the gamv.
The defeat of Francis Oulmet at the fireen
which Country Club's annual imitation tourna
ment on Tuesday was rather unexpected, but
one of the surprise that is likely to happen
at any time and to any person Oulmet was
off his game and bis opponent was "playing
hl head off," lo borrow a familiar exir.sslon
It Is ono of the chances that noted golfers
take when they play In tournament alter
tournament and It is safe to say that Oulmet
look his defeat philosophically and smilingly
Of course, most people would rather win than
lose, but these upset are a part of tho game
and generally accepted as such.
The Boston Red Sox, nursing a faint
pennant hope, tackled the Browns yes
terday and were thrown back for a 10 to
1 loss.
The Browns broke Walter Johnson's
winning streak last year. They broke,
tho Washington team's winning streak,
broke. Johnson's runless record, beat tho
Naps out of tho 190S pennnnt and have,
performed other stunts along the samo
lines.
Tho "pop-eyed" Dodgers have won ten
games in a row. Do they think this is
June?
Despite tho fact that Lajolo and Wag
ner have been "replaced" by n dozen
youths. It's a pretty safe bet they'll bo
back at their old stations next year.
Stanley Boot, tho former Penn cross
country champion, who has In late years
been running under the colors of tho
Mercury A. C has been engaged to as
sist Coach Orton In developing the Hed
nnd Blue's hill and dale men, Root Is
a great student of the running gnmo and
will be a valuablo asset to Penn.
The National Commission will soon
have to change Its draft rules. Inasmuch
ns the Importers arc now out of business.
If yesterday's crowd at tho Phllly park
Is a fair sample of what Is to be for
tho rest of the season, Cravath need
have no fear that he will hit any spec
tators with homo run drives In ths
bleachers.
Either the National Commission or tho
Baseball Writers' Association should
promulgate some definite rule with re
gard to the leading batsman of the
leagues. It Is not fair for Ty Cobb to
bo awarded this honor year after year
whan he participates In so few Karnes,
comparatively spcnklng. This yenr Cobb
will not havo been In many more than
half the games, while such players as
Hdclle Collins and Joo Jackson are In
nearly every contest. Eddlo has missed
only one game this year, hence he de
serves moro for batting .355, for exam
ple, than Cobb does for hitting at tho
rnto of ,3G5. Some definite number of
games should bo set. 135 would not bo
too many, nnd If a man did not play In
that number of tests ho should not bo
considered.
"Wild Bill" Donovan led the Provi
dence club nt n. fust clip this season,
and nfter a grueling race has won out.
The veteran pitcher Is rntcd as tho best
manager In the International League,
with the exception of "Jack" Dunn.
