"THE BONEHEAD," BY VAN LOAN PHILS MAKE GOOD
ITOM SOX, WITH EDDIE MURPHY,
WOULD BE POWERFUL MACHINE
Athletics' Outfielder Would Add to Offensive Work of Chicagoans'
Great Team, the Best Seen Here This Season Pitching
Staff Most Consistent in the Country.
The baseball season is almost halt oVer nnd every club In tho two major
leagues has made Its appearance In this city, and the Chicago White Box have
stood out far above all others, In their gamwi hero at least.
In the threo games played In this city the Chicagoans did nol show the
slightest sign of weakness In nny department, unlefS It was that they are a
trifle ivorconfldent; and there Is not a single position that needs strengthening
except third base.
It is a team that has tho batting strength of tho Athletics of 1913, tho
fm.r.il nti hn tmM nf thn Olniils of 1912. the fielding of the Braves of 19H
and White Sox pitching. Tho Sox always have, had a powerful pitching staff
since Fielder JoneM put together his pennant winner in 1906, and oven before
that time Clarke Clrlillth had good pitchers in Chicago. It Is a club that
apparently has everything, and Bhould It continue nt Its present clip It is
likely to be a machine as famous as the Athletics, tho old Bnttlmoro Orioles
and the Bostons of the later 0s.
t
Eddie Murphy Would Strengthen White Sox
Tho acquisition of Uddle Murphy would cnnblo ltowland to bring Iloth In
to third permanently and thus glvo the team batting strength for every posi
tion, llussett Dlackburn Is a fine fielder, but a weak hitter, while Murphy
Is a strong hitter, but n weak fielder, With such fine pitching Manager
Rowland Is likely to sacrifice tho fielding strength for tho batting, and uso
Murphy In right field with John Collins switched to left and lloth to third base.
Thcro Is no denying tho fact that Eddto Murphy Is a wonderful player
offensively, and ho la really a. much better fielder than he has shown this
season. Murphy has apparently had but llttlo Interest in tho game this year,
and no doubt would welcome a switch that would send him to a club that
has such a great chance to win the pennant.
Manager Mack Praises Strength or Chicagoans
With Murphy tho White Sox would Do even stronger thnn they ore at
present, and members of the Athletics, Including Manager Mack, declare that
Rowland's team Is playing by far bettor ball than nny club they havo seen
to date. Tho Tigers hnvo a powerful outfield and a fairly strong club offensively,
mainly through tho wonderful work of Cobb and Crawford, but Its infield Is
weak, while tho pitching staff has not enough dependable performers to help
out Covalcskle, Doubs and Dubuc. On tho wholo tho work of the Tigers was
disappointing to local fans, and they did not Impress ono as being as strong
ns tho Red Sox were on their last nppearanco here.
Rowland Bulldlnc Powerful Battlwr. Team
Perhaps some of tho star pitchers will discover glaring weaknesses In the
batting of Felsch, Iloth and Foumlcr, threo of the White Sox youngsters, nnd
ncnd tho tip around tho circuit, with tho result thnt the long distance clubbing
of this trio will cease, but chances aro against this happening.
When the youthful Athletic team started off In 1910 Just as tho Sox aro
going today, this same thing was predicted, but Mclnnls," Collins, Baker and
Shrunk, the four youngsters who wero to be shown up by the star pitchers
ns tho Beason wore on, aro still powerful- clubbers, nnd It Is likely thoy will
discover that tho Whlto Sox are Blmply a wondorful bunch of froo swinging, long
distance hitters.
White Sox Havo Strongest Pitching Staff in League
Many other clubs havo had plenty of long distance hitters and sluggers
who perhaps surpass the present White Sox aggregation nnd yet never won
pennants, but nono of these teams possessed the speed or pitching that Rowland
has at present. He has' Ave twlrlers who aro in perfect shape nnd each Is
considered a star. For consistency Faber, Scott, CIcotte, Russell and Benz
form tho best hurling Btaff In tho country, and then there' Is Ed Walsh, If he
can come back, Mel Wolfgang and Klepfcr, tho Pacific coast recruit, to old
when tho doublc-hended days begin.
All things considered, there seems to bo only two chances to stop tho
White Sox from winning tho American League pennant. They aro over
confidence, which Is already apparent In the earliest stages, and mismanage
ment. To date, Rowland, a minor leaguer, has obtained surprising results. If
he continues oh ho is going at present nnd does not let a few reverses destroy
his Judgment, he will have tho honor of leading a pennant winner.
Mack Considers Rowland's Offer for Murphy
Concerning the reported sale of Eddie Murphy to Chicago, Manager
Mack says: "I have not made up my mind to sell Eddie Murphy, nnd there
fore must say that tho story that he has been sold Is untrue. Manager
Rowland, of the Whlto Box, naked me If I would sell him, nnd I told him
that I would think nbout It. Ho offered me a price, but I have not given him
my answer. Murphy needs n rest, and that accounts for somo of his recent
poor work. Our right field is the hardest in the" league to' play, nnd Eddie
just got going badjy. I won't say that I will not sell him."
It Is said that Branch Rickey, manager of tho Browns, has obtained both
Sislcr, of Michigan, and Koob, of Kalamazoo Normal, two of the very beat
college pitchers of tho West. Both of these collegians wero reported to havo
signed with Detroit, and Owner Navln, of tho Tigers, Insists thnt both men
accepted the terms of the Detroit Club. It Is probably a case for tho National
Commission, as Sislcr signed a Pittsburgh contract four years ago when he
was a freshman at Michigan, but he says that he never received any money
from the Pirates and became a free agent when ho was not tendered a
contract each year In February, us provided for In the national agreement.
Manager Mack stated today that Bruno Haas, tho Worcester Academy
southpaw, w.ould pitch against the Yankees on Wednesday. Mack Is very
much Impressed with this youngster and intends to send him to tho mound
often. Ira Thomas nlso speaks highly of the lad, but says that he does not
know whether he knows as much about pitching as Crowell, tho Brown Uni
versity youngster. .
Al D em are o pitched a great game
Chalmers and Rlxey, does not seem to be able to win, no matter how well
he twirls. The Phillies fall dismally with the bat every time one of this
trio goes to the mound, and several games that Bhould have been easy victories
have been lost in the West for this reason.
On Saturday the White Sox stole four bases out of flvo tries, while yes
terday they pilfered. Ave out of five attempts. In defeating Cleveland In a
double-header the White Sox also continued on their extra-base hitting career.
. Eddie Collins and Fournier had homers; Weaver, two triples; John Collins
and Felsch each one, and Roth two doubles.
Clinton Rogge, the youthful Pittsburgh Federal League twlrler, held
Newark to one hit, a single by Huhn In the ninth Inning, with one man out,
yesterday. But 29 men faced him during the game.
n . '
There is a movement on foot to transfer the Buffalo International League
franchise to AJlentawn. It Is doubtful If Allentown can hold up Its end In
such a high-class league, as the fans would hardly be willing ta pay a larger
admission rate than they have been charged in the post, and this would be
necessary In a class A A. league,
'
Manager Mock nnd Harry Davis spent Sunday on the golf links of tho
Pine Valley Country Club. Mack must have, had a trifle the best of It. He
admitted thai Davis was a pretty good golfer. It Is also likely that several
other things besides golf were discussed,
The Giants finally found a team they could beat. They stopped over In
Wheeling and defeated the Central Leaguers, A to 2. For the first time In
several seasons. Manager McOraw used a regular team In an exhibition game.
The four straight defeats administered to the Braves by the Cardinals
probably wllf Induee Johnny Evera to Jump Into the game .sooner than he
expected. TJia Braves have had a rough trip after a splendid start, while
the Cardinals started poorly but wound up thejr home stand In a spectacular
manner.
The failure of Sherwood Magea to strike hts batting stride has been one
of the main causes of the Blump of the Bravea. lie Is a natural slugger, and
will probably start tearing the hoards qff the fsne- in a few days.

WOMEN GOLFERS OF CITY BEST
IN COUNTRY; MEN ONLY FAIR
Curious but Trice Also That Women Tennis Players of Philadel
phia Are Only Mediocre, While Men Players Hold
Highest RanJc-r-Some of the Local Experts.
JUST HOW THEY RANK.
Old PAHa's women golfers always show
That they can win, no matter who the foe;
But lew among the men that compete
Successfully In any classy meet.
Yet our men tennis players eat 'em up
In local tilts or for the Davis Cup;
Our women, on the other hand, you'll see,
Are yet a negligible quantity.
It is a remarkable fact that Philadel
phia could produce If necessary a dozen
women golf players who could successful
ly hold their own against a dozen women
from any other community, while nearly
anv other section of the country could
gather together the same number of men
players and defeat the Phlladelphhvns with
ridiculous ease. W
On the other hand, there Is not a city
In the land which could corral a dozen
male tennis nlayera to stand up against
the racket wlelders of Philadelphia, but
Philadelphia women lawn tennis aspirants
are sadly lacking In efficiency and would
be easy prey for the cream of New York,
Boston, Los Angeles or most any other
community In which women attempt to
attain proficiency on tho courts. This
Curious state of affairs exists, of course,
only among the amateurs, professionals
being left out of the consideration en
tlrolv. Recently the women golfers of Philadel
phia played a three-cornered match with
tho pick of best women golfers that could
be gotten together In New York and Bos
ton, The result was a sweeping local vic
tory. This proves conclusively where
Quaker City women golfers stand with
reference to those of other communities,
because, excepting Philadelphia, Boston
and New York not only have more women
golfers than any other cities In this coun
try, but have better performers.
With no attempt to rank the local wom
en golfers, the following group comprises
a doz.en players that 'would give any
othendozen women In the country a bat
tle: Mrs. C. H. Vanderbeck, Mrs. R. Hr
Barlow, Miss Eleanor Chandler, Mrs. C.
F. Fox, Miss Mildred Caverly, Mrs. Q. 8.
Munson, Miss Florence MoNcely, Miss
Catherine Davis,. Miss H. Ethel Maule.
Mrs. William S. Hilles, Mrs. 3. H. Stet
son and Mrs. Milton Herald. There are
a sufficiently large number of high-grade
players, exclusive of the ones mentioned,
that might well be substituted for those
given, and the result In an intermunlcl
pal match would be In favor of Phlladel
ohla. There are hundreds of men golfers l.t
Philadelphia and vlplnlty, and yet there
"DICK" CROKER REORGANIZES
HIS RACING STARVES
Patches Up Peace Wuh Parkinson,
Noted Irish Trainer.
DUBLIN. June 18. Richard Croker,
once of Tammany Hall fame. Is reor
ganizing his racing stable. He Is aim
ing to make a big "splash" In the com
ing season.
In the first place, he has made his
peace with the weU-known Irish trainer,
Parkinson.
The estrangement between the two
has lasted ever since Croker's Derby
winner, Orby, was a 2.year. Owing to
some dispute Parkinson refused to train
Mr. Croker'a horses. Now that the dif
ference has been settled, Mr. Croker
has sent a string of J.year-olds to Park
inson for training. The lot comprises
some really promising youngsters who
are certain to carry the "Boss's" colors
to victory.

are comparatively few who have attained
any prominence nt all In tho golf world.
It Is more than probable that if the best
12 were picked from local golf, country
and cricket clubs most any other city
could defeat them without half trying.
In the matter of tennis, the exact re
reverso Is true. Take R. Norrls Williams,
3d, W. J. Clothier, Wallace Johnson, J.
J. Armstrong, Jr., W. T. Tilden, Jr.,
Joseph Thayer, Alex Thaxer. Ed Thayer,
Dr. E. B. ''Dowhurst, J. R. Carpenter, S.
W. Pearson and Craig Diddle and pit
them against a field of players from any
other city in the country. The result
would bo a series of overwhelming vic
tories for the Phlladelphlans. Now York
city would probably be socond.
Naturally, the entire State of Califor
nia could scleot a dozen players that
would defeat tho Philadelphia men, but
San Francisco could not do It, nor could
Los Angeles. In the same way It Is
highly Improbable that any city in tho
world could select a dozen players to
beat these PhlladelphlanB. Chrlstchurch,
New Zealand, Melbourne, Sydney and
Queenstown, Australia, have many ex
perts with the racket, but without com
bining forces, any ono of them would bo
up against a very difficult proposition in
attempting to defeat this dauntless dozen.
Three of these, players are Internation
alists. William J. Clothier has won fame
In a number of Davis Cup matches, be
sides having been national champion. R.
Norrls Williams defeated Maurlco Mc
Lcughlln last summer at Newport for the
American title. He waB formerly clay
court champion, also, until he gave that
game up to play exclusively on turf.
Last summer Williams,, who, by the way,
Is a Titanlo survivor, was a membor of
the American Davis Cup team.- Wallace
Johnson, though defeated last Saturday
for tho State title' by J, J. Armstrong,
Jr., Is a great player when at his best.
In 1912 he was runner-up for the national
title, forcing McLoughlln to go the limit
of five sets to .win. He has been an
alternate on tho American Davis Cup
team.
While Mies Agnes Kennedy, Mrs. Gil
bert Harvey apd Mss E. Hensel are good
tennis players, .they cannot rank with the
best in the country, nor can any other
one or more women of Philadelphia com
pare with such lawn tennis experts as
Mrs, George Wlghtman, Miss Mary
Browne and the famous Sutton Bisters.
As for a comparison of the local women
tennis players with Miss Molla BJurstedt,
who recently won the American title at
tho Philadelphia Cricket Club, the local
.women are outclassed.
MANY RACE MEETINGS PLANNED
FOR JULY 5 BY HORSEMEN
Trotting Under Saddle to Feature
North Penn's Events.
Many race meetilga are planned for
July 5 by local and out-of-town horse
men, Phlladelphlans will have the Bel
mont track at Narberth for their sport,
which wll be held under the auspices of
the North Penn Trotting Association. A
special mile race, trotting under saddle..
In which a new record Is the objective,
promises to be a stellar event.
The present champion Is Bow Devil, a
local owned steed. Indications point that
a nw mark win be set. for many owners
are training; their horses diligently.
Byberry. Frankford and Wilmington
clubs are also contemplating races.

Has Golfing Card of 78 for First
Half of 36-hole Match in
Lynnewood Hall Cup Trials.
NOBLE, Pa., June 21. Jerome D. Trav
ers, Upper Montctalr, tho new open golf
champion of America, returned a card of
79 for tho first half of the 36 holes qualify
ing round for the .Lynnewood Hall Cup
at tho Huntingdon Valley Country piub
today nnd with nil but a very few of 00
odd entries In he leads tho field.
Tho 80s returned by "Maxwell R. Mar
ston, tho New Jprsey title holder, and
B. Warren Cockran, Baltimore, leave
theso two In a tie for second place.
Travers was right at the top of his
gamo today except In putting, a depart
ment In golf of which the open champion
Is a master. Time and again his long
ones stopped Inches short of the cup,
otherwlso ho would have had T5 or better.
Then, too, tho course Is some 250 yards
longer than Tisual. t -
Travers went out in 33, two strokes bet
ter than Marston, his partner. Both re
turned In 40.
The leader's card:
Xut 3 3 6 4 4 5 5 6 4-33
In 3 5 4 4 5 4 6 5 E-40-78
The threo on tho first hole was' a
"bird," while the figures on the 2d, 3d,
4th, 7th, 8th, Oth, 10th, 13th, 15th and 16th
equalled par.
On the other flvo holes Travers was a
stroke over par.
Arnold Service, Philadelphia Cricket
Club, leads the Philadelphia crowd with
82.
A great disappointment was the Ina
bility of Francis Oulijiet to compete.
A telegram was received from htm. this
morning, Baying that he was too HI to
play. In anticipation of seeing him play
a large number of spectators were here.
However, Jerome D. Travcrs, Max R,
Marston, W. H. Gardner and B. W. Cork
ran and his brother, D, C. Corkran, and
several other players of national, repute
were present, and the tournament should
prove Interesting.
Jerome, Travers already has two legs
on the gold cup, the gift, of Mrs. George

It will become his personal property,

By CHARMS E. VAN LOAN
A DOZEN members of the team wero
loafing about the clubhouse un
touched by tho shining example of a fow
Industrious ones who were hurrying Into
I their "spangles" a If the series ae-
pended upon their belnjf on the grouna
a full two hours ahead of the umpire. A
crap gamo struggled feebly In n corner:
It was far from pay day. Billy Qllfeather,
whose position on the diamond In tho
summed tlmo made him a drawing card
on the vaudeville stage In tho winter, and
who believed himself another Chauncey
Olcott, was singing a sentimental ballad
to the crooning accompaniment of
"Frosty" aicNab, "snnngnar- ocou ana
"Plano-Iegs" Daly. "Kidney-foot" Per
kins, the catcher, was playing solitaire on
Ihe bench In front of his locker,
Tho door banged loudly, and In camo
"Bunk" Williams, .tho first baseman, and
n privileged character. Ho looked about
him, struck an attitude and delivered
himself of a bark which split a barber
shop chord In two and drowned Tom
Meadows' freniled appeal' to "Little Joe."
"Raw! Rawl Rawl" howled Bunk.
"Rough 'cm upl Chnw 'era upt Spit 'em
out, tlgert Rawl Rawl Rawl"
"What In Sam H1U nro you raw-rawing
about?" Inquired Frosty MacNab, paus
ing In tho Intricate evolutions necessary
to tho adorning of tho form with shcep
Bkln sliding pads which preserve the hide
of the ball player. "Nlx on tho raw-raw.
You ain't no college phenomenon, Bunk,
Don't think It for n minute."
"Who said I was?" nsked Bunk, ag
grieved. "Can't you let a fellow get In
practice?"
"Bunk's going to coach a college team
next spring." suggested Kldnoy-foot, un
earthing the deuce of clubs and dropping
It upon the ace.'
"I nm notl" said Bunk holly. "You
fellows don't know what's going on. You
haven't heard tho news."
This shot produced InBtant silence.
"Well," said Billy Gllfcathcr, "I'll bo
the goat. What Is tho news?"
"S-s-shl" whispered Bunk. "Tho old
man thinks we're weak In tho brain de
partment. He's went and bought a col
lege boy for an inflelder."
The explosion of a bomb In the dressing
room might have created less excitement.
"Get outl"
"Stand away from tho horse's head. Ho
might bite youl"
"Bunk, you're bughouse!"
"Somebody turn him overt He's dream
ing!" "Tho old man? Not a chance!"
Bunk listened to the Incredulous out
burst with a grin of delight.
"Rawl Raw! Raw!" said he, gravely,
"It's all true. The old man has gone
klndergartcnlng same as Johnny Merry
and tho rest of the managers. Maybe we
need some three hundred thinkers on the
payroll,"
But tho Rebels refused to believe that
such a thing could bo possible.
"Oh, all right," said Bunk. "Just wait
a. while, nnd you'll Bee. Ho parts his
name In the mlddlo, too. Wouldn't be
surprised If ho put cologne on his hand
kerchiefs. The old man thinks we need
soma new blood raw-raw blood. You
wait" '
The Rebels wero amazed. Old man Ter
hune, 10 years manager of the club and
ono of the few survivals of old-time base
ball, had never been suspected of a lean
ing toward the new era in "the game. He
believed In men who could hit the ball and
run tho bases.
"Give mo a bunch of men who can
hit around three hundred, and I'll take a
chance on being outguessed," was his
watchword.
When he needed new. ball players, he
went to Class A leagues after thm, buy.
Ing them-buying outright and taking no
chances on the draft. It was all very
well for Johnny Merry to mport college
men;1 old man Terhuno wanted ball play
ers of league experience, and so long as
he found them, they might sign their
salary checks with a Maltese cross If U
suited them, and eat pie with a knife for
all he cared.
But progress Is the watchword. In base
ball as In other things, and the old man
noted with pained surprise the sensa-
I tlonal success of half a dozen clean-look
ing, nxnieiio youngsters flrom fresh
water colleges. After Johnny Merry's
new campus And, Teddy Lang.had pitched
and won three games from the Rebels, It
struck old man Ternune that there might
oe sometnmg n the higher education,
afterUI, It hurt him to admit as much
to his scouts, but the -word went .forth
to look over the college athletes and" re
port discoveries.
"Pitchers, pf course," said the old man,
