ATHLETICS INVADE WEST THIS WEEK-INTERCEUJB TENNIS PLAY-COFFEY IS A VICM KENTUCKY DERBY PROMISES TO BE jl GREATEST RACE IN TURF HISTOM ATHLETICS FACE CRUCIAL TEST ON FIRST WESTERN INVASION I Pitching and Batting Good in Turn, Mack Seeks to Get the Com bination Alexander's Fall Before Recruit Tcncr Up holds Rowdyism of Umpire and Punishes Player. The AlhletlcH Hre nt home for u throcBiimc series with Wnalilnjctnn, Rtnrtlnsr today, nfter which they Icavn on the flrnt bwIiib tirutiml the vcntcrit end ot tho American LcnRtio circuit. This first Western trip will either rnkko or hrenk the ohiincrs of the chnmplons. Little enn ho loltl of tho relative stretiRlli of imy of tho clubs until the Kitst has met the West. Detroit nnd Chicago have ticen burning thliws up In the West, whllo the Yanltecs hnve been koIiik it a mail pace In tho Hast. Hut In the Inler seotloiuil clash none of these teams may show to advantage. Although thp Athletics lost the series In WashlnRton, Hintun and New York on tho recent trip, thete were plenty of happenings thai should glad den tho hearts of the Athletics' followers. After ti miserable all-round ex hibition In ttostou tho team cntne back to the form thai may bo expected of It In tho future. Poor pitching bos been a great handicap to dale, hut lit Washington nnd New York Mashes of brilliant box work were shown, nnd with the burling good the team looked 50 per cent, better. When the Fireworks Start in Ilotli Depart tncntfl In gnmes that were well pitched by Mack's twlrlcrs tho Athletics looked llko a different ball club, though the batting has not been what should bo expected. When the pitching was poor the batting was good, but as soon as tho hurlcrs started to show the batsmen failed to come "through, Manager Mack looks for all departments to lie working smoothly In a few dnys, and If they do the Athletics should stnrt to climb. The team must strike Its stride while In the West or It will be hopelessly out of the running, Several times within the hmt five years the Athletics hnve started out In a similar fashion anil found themselves on the llrst Western trip. Tho consistent, twirling of Wjckoff and I'ennock. together with an apparent re turn to form by Ilressler, presage a better trip than Is generally expected. It Took a Youngster to Heat Alexander After star pitchers had taken a try against Alexander's winning stieak, Manager McOruw decided to play n little percentage and shifted a young ster In agility the J'hlllies In the Mnal game of the series, and the Ncbraskan was beaten, AlcOraw admits that the Phils are going to be a dangerous contender, but It Is Hostou that he fears most, and for this reason he de cided to save Tcsrcau for the opening game with Stalllngs' team In the Hub City. Ho selected Ralph Stroud, a recruit from the Pacific Coast League, who had been released by Detroit two years ago, ns the opponent of the league's star pitcher. Believing that none of bis pitchers was likely to win from Alexander If he was right, and that a youngster with a good day bad a cbnnce If the Nebrnskan was off form, McUraw took bis chance and won. Stroud pitched great ball, and was particularly effective Just when It seemed tho Phillies were about to start a rally. Tho conqueror of tho Nebraska speed merchant Is a wise pitcher. Ho has had consldcrnblo minor league experience nnd would never have gone riut ot tho American League had It not been for a lamo arm that .leanings thought would never be right again. Great credit Is due Stroud, He out pitched his more famous opponent all the way, but It must be admitted that all the breaks of tho game wero with him. Byrne First of Phils to Kick Out of Traces Considerable dissatisfaction was expressed by the fans and players at tho umpiring of Qulgley and Knson. but the action of Byrne In kicking him self out of the game was uncalled for. Tho umpiring was poor, but has been bad for nil teams. Tho Phillies have received their share of the bad decisions, but so have their opponents, nnd there was no occasion for Byrno to kick himself out of tho game. Had Byrne remained In the fray tho Phillies would have had an excellent chance for a victory, as Manager 3loran was forced to send Baumgardner, a pitcher, in to pinch hit In tho ninth Inning with men on second nnd third and two runs needed to tto the score. Ball players in the National League should remember that the 21 -player limit, with eight pitchers Included In that list, leaves but few changes for a manager In a game such ns the final clash with tho Giants. Byrne's bad Judgment In kicking on a called ball which leally had no direct bearing on tho game, except to place Alexander In a temporary holo, irom which good pitching could easily have got him away, was not tho only time tho Phils lagged In brain-work. Paskert played too close for some of the Giants' hardest hitters, and Brainard hit a double on a drlvo Which Paskert should easily have fielded, while Paskert was guilty also of sleeping when Doylo scored ,from ,thlrd on Fletcher's short fly. Whiltcd Plays Great Ball at First, His Old Position The Injury to Captain Luderus will provo qulto a handicap to tho Phil lies for a few days, as the husky first Backer was hitting hard and timely, but his absence will not bo felt ns badly ns Is generally believed. Whltted replaced Luderus nnd gavo an exhibition that surprised tho fans. His ex cellent performance nt llrst base should havo occasioned no surprise, as that Is his original position. When Whltted first broko Into minor lengue ball It was as a first base man at Jacksonville, and ho continued playing first base at Durham, In the North Carolina Lengue, until a few weeks before ho was purchased by the St. Louis Cardinals. He likes first base better than any other posi tion, nnd had It not been for the fact that tho Cardinals had Ed Konetchy going at his best Whltted would have tried for that position. As a third baseman Whltted was never much of a success, but In centre Held and at first base he appears to be a star. Efforts to Get "Nerve" of Little Bancroft The bad blood that existed between the Phillies and Giants for years before tho departure of Mike Doolan. Otto Knabc and Addle Brennan to the Feds again cropped out yesterday, nnd several times It seemed there would be trouble' between some of. the players, Alexander and Doyle were both threatening each other throughout tho game, whllo several of the Fhllly players went after Fletcher when he slid Into Bancroft at second In the eighth Inning. Moat likely It wns accidental, and tho fans hope so, but Fletcher's slide had a naBty look. The Giants' shortstop rode Into Bancroft with his right foot three feet In the nlr, and Bancroft wus lucky to get nway from him. As It was, a gash a foot long was torn in his trousers at tho thigh. Several ether visiting players have slid Into second In the same way when Ban croft was covering. Evidently they are trying to frighten the little wonder, but have not succeeded. It Is bud ball, however. Tcner Upholds an Umpire's Rowdyism The recent ruling of President Tener In suspending Manager Herzog, of Cincinnati, and not punishing Umplro Rlgler for their fist fight a't St. Louis Is apparentlya great Injustice, unless the facts of the case have been exaggerated. Regardless of what the provocation happened to be Umpire Rlgler lost all claim to Immunity from punishment by striking the first blow, and It was a cowardly one. Rlgler Is fully four inches taller and 30 pounds heavier than the Cincinnati manager, and yet he struck him with his mask. Herzog's nose was bioken and both eyes closed. No doubt Herzog deserved suspension for the things ho said to Rlgler, but the latter certainly does not deserve to get off without oven a repri mand. Tenet's decision is going to have n bad effect In the future. Ball players probably need a stern hand running the games, but they also need a clear head. There are too many major league umpires now who carry a chip on their shoulder, and some are likely to be even more arbitrary, now that Ulster's action bus been condoned, ... - f Case of Sherwood Magee Recalled When Sherwood Magee assaulted Umpire FInneran he was threatened with expulsion from the game and finally was suspended for quite a period nnd fined heavily. Other similar Jcases have been punished accordingly, though it was admitted at the tlmo that the umpire's remarks helped to provoke the player. In this case Herzog did not attempt to strike Rlgler, but addressed the official In terms that Rlgler did not like. Why place the umpires on a pedestal? Wade KHIefer, of the Reds, who was batting at the plate, and Frank Snyder, the St. Louis catcher, both have filed affidavits with a Cincinnati jiaper to the effect that Herzog did not spike Rlgler or use language that warranted the attack. The whole affair requires more of an investigation than It received, as such things hurt baseball and disgust the spectators. MMEg AVERAGE. 706 LUDE.fcU&40.

JIM COFFEY 1ILASTS HOPES OF REICH WITH KNOCKOUT Heavyweight Battle in New York Lasts Three Rounds Only. XRW YORK. May 6.-Jlm Coffey, the Dublin giant, knocked out Al Reich, tho New York heavyweight. In the third round of what was to have been a 10 round bout nt 'Mndlson Squaro Garden last night. Coffee welshed 100 and Reich 203. The Garden hold the largest crowd since the repeal of the Horton law, a dozen years ago. After two lounds, In which Coffey had a slight 'ead, his aggressiveness caused Reich to hrcak ground In the third round. A left hook and a rlsht emash to the Jaw and a hard left to thp stomach as Reich was falling were the blows that redded the tight. Reich openel the second with a rush, and after some sparring crossed a right to thp chin, stagegring Coffey. Coffey managed to keep Reich away with left jabs for a while, but Reich broke through with another blow on the chin that sent Coffey to tho ropes. Coffey came back with a rush, landing a stialght left that knocked Reich down, the bell stopping the count at "four." Reich assumed the defensive in the third. Coffey will now try to arrange a matoh with Jess Wlllard. fir W' "n COFFEY WINS BY K. O. Jim Coffey last night blasted the championship hopes of Al Reich in New York, flooring the heavy weight in three rounds. No one could ever accuse tho Mackmen, back nt their best, of any frenzied enthu siasm or racy dash. They noro In the main a body of serious minded, clcan llvlng young fellow b, who behaved thim sclvcs, let umpires alone, started no trouble of any sort, played baseball nnd let It go nt that. But while bcicft of all enthusiasm there was a certain enrnestness In their piny, which, plus their power and smash,' mado them almost unbeatable. But In those days from 1DI0 to Wie the Mackmen were playing for two sti pends their salaries and the annual world scries check. The Mackmnn getting $1000 could figure on at least $6300 for tho year's work. They nil figured this way for flvo years. Last September wo asked Jack Coombs how long the Athletics expected to keep on w Inning penannts. "At least two more sensons," be icpllcd. "Most of tho stars Collins, Baker, Mclnnls, Barry, Eddie Murphy, Sehang are still well under 30. They haven't btnited to slip. Who is there to stop them?" THEN THE SHOCK ARRIVED. Frank Baker signed a three-year con tract at something llko $1500 a year, figur ing on that extra 500 or $3000 world series bonus. Many others signed up In the same belief. Then came tho shock nnd the end of all world series dreams. Collins was sold, while Bender, Blank and Coombs were practically cut adrift. That Is exactly why Frank Baker Isn't playing ball. Ho figures that he will be working for J3000 less money than he has worked for before 3000 less than ho ex pected his contract to call for. And to our mind that is exactly why tho Mackmen nre now down so far In the race. Those who had signed up, and most of them had. figure their salaries have been cut by $2500 or $3000. They knew at the season's start with Collins, Baker, Bender and Plank mim ing, the world series collection was over. Thev might finish second or third or fourth but there is no individual $3000 for those who play on a club that winds up m second place. THE VANISHED PEP So vanished ambition In the Maoklan camp, This is not to cliargo that Mack's players are deliberately quitting or loaf ing. But It Is not a widespread human attribute for the average citizen to flguro that his pay check has been cut almost half In two and then for him to go out and hustle Just as blithely as he did before. It Is seldom done In any line baseball not excepted. The Mackmen are not what they used to be. But a club that has such people as Sehang, Mclnnls, Barry, Eddie Murphy) Strunk, Oldring, Lajole, etc., hardly be longs In Inst place. The main nnswer is in the loss of that extra money they have been collecting or expecting to collect for the laot live years. They collected four years out of the five but for 1915 the door to the mint was slammed In their dis couraged faces. When Eddie Collins left the Mackmen lost their Inspiration that golden apple was no longer hung for them in the gardens of October. H I,. G. So far as we have known the Yankees have never outdrawn the Giants in New York on any complete season. THE DIFFERENCE "If oldtlme ball clubs, and even clubs of recent date, could get along on from IS to 18 men, why can't McQrawT" quer ies I- F. J. There la this difference; In other years a ciud started to sup the manager If could enforce the ten-day release clause, weed out the fading players and start building up. There was none then signed to two,, and three-year nonrelease con tracts. There was no Federal League to enforce any such system. For 1915, before the 21-pIayer limit was passed, McGraw had 17 veterans signed to nonrelease contracts. When these be gan to slip he couldn't let them go he wns unable to even trade them and he was also unable to bench themor fill their places, because he wns restricted to the use of 21 men only. Under normal conditions thcrc.ls no rea son why a club shouldn't operate with 18 or 20 players. But present conditions are not exactly what even the most stirring optimist might label normal. "When," asks an editorial exchange, "does America Intend to protest nt her shlpi being sunk nnd her citizens being killd?" What's the hurry? Tho first feeble protest will probably come when some outside nation has captured and burned Washington. EVIDENTLY. Hughle Jennings figures tho American Lengue pennant rests with Detroit and Chlcngo In the West nnd Boston. Wash ington and Philadelphia in the East. Hughle may bo correct. But ono might also call Hughlo'a attention to tho pres ent standing of tho clubs. Evidently Hughle hasn't observed tho Yankees In nctlon this season. Quito evidently. No ono is picking them to win any pannants. But any one who figures tho Mackmen as now constituted, have a better chance, Is entitled to a number of additional guesses. Charley Herzog, in losing a decision to an umpire, marked tho 6S,916th ball player who had lost similar decisions out of 58,918 starts. Yet tho frenzied athlete persists In attempting to put one over. We havo read a number of expert articles on bow to play nn approach In golf, but, after all, there Is only one system, viz.: Keep your head still, hew to tho right line, and let the chip shots fall whero they may. It 'may be that Walter Hagen, the Rochester pro, is good enough to take Oulmct's place nn an unplayable stymie for Ray and Vardon. He Is beglning to look the part. "Magnates may take baseball out of court." The old saying was right. Con stant dripping wears away bone. Harvard Crew in Great Try CAMIHUDC.i:, Mass., May 0. Over the same mils and seen-elghths course on the Charles Ittver, where llnnaM will row Cornell on May 22, tho Crimson varsity crew had a trial race acnlnst tho freshmen yesterday. The under class men were allowed a start of two and a Suailcr lengths and wero nosed out at tho nfSn. Tho toaehea expressed tiatisiactlon with tho varsity's showing, No time wan given out. 1P11 1 ? IP V -STO & J&' YOUNG DIGGINS The clever Gray's Ferry bantam will meet a hard-hitting opponent in Joe O'Donnell in the star bout at the Broadway Club tonight. Saturday's Event at Churchill Downs Has Attracted a J Remarkable Field of Three-year-olds Matt Wim Believes Race Will Mean a Record. Matt J. Winn, who visited Laurel, Md this week to attend the annual meeting of tho directors and stockholders of tho Mnrjlnnd Fair Association, before return ing to Louisville declared he anticipated the greatest race In tho Derby, Saturday, that has ever been run at tho Churchill Downs course. "ft will bo the greatest Derby ever held, and one of tho best three-year-old races In the history of the turf," said Mr. Winn. Thero Is certainly plenty of circumstan tial cvldenco to corroborate Mr. Winn s testimony. A glance through tho eligibility list for tho Derby discloses such sterling threo-venr-olds as II. P. Whitney's Re gret, tho unbeaten filly; Schuyler L. Par son's Sharpshooter nnd Phosphor, both of whom may go to the post In tho classic; John E. Mndden's Charter Maid, the Qulncy stable's Futurity winner; Trojan, and Double Eagle; James Butler's Peb bles, Last Coin and Kilkenny Boy, tho first two of which nre looked upon as likely favorites for the race; W. R. Coo's Hauberk and Captain E. B, Cnssntt's Garbage. It. C. Hallcnheck'a recent purchases, The Finn nnd Iron Duke, aro also eligi ble for tho Derby, but as both nro now quartet ed at Belmont Park there Is no likelihood of cither facing the starter at Louisville, Saturdny. It would bo diffi cult to uncover n higher class field of three-ycnr-olds than those named, how ever, and, with weather conditions favor able, Mr. Winn's predictions should be realized.
