CROWELL LET OUT
BY ATHLETICS TO
BALTIMORE CLUB
Youngster Expected to Im
prove and Gome Back In
dians Are Batting Hard
fromi overwork and In tnat no trnmt v,.,..
ns ho was.nt this time a year ago, the Phil
lies nre In much better shape for the grind
thai! nny other National League pennant
contender. It Is believed that Ulxey and'
Domareo will continue to show consistent
form, and It nlso Is certain that Mayer nnd
Chalmers will soon strlko their stride.
This will give Moran flvo top-notch pitch
ers for the regular work, with Bender nnd
.McQuillan,, two heady veterans, for relief
worK nnti to mito up tno mtruon in tho
dpublc-hoador period. If there is another
staff In tho National Lcngue better pre
pared, past performances fall to rovoat It.
At tho present tlmo tho Phillies are only
two games behind tho Dodgers, nnd less
than that bnck of the Giants, which Is ex
tremely fortunate considering the brand
of ball shown by tho Phils slnco their re
turn home. Tho team continues to play
nggiesslve, heady ball, but tho weak hitting
and Inconsistent form of tho pltcners, two
fnults which should bo eliminated soon, lias
prevented tho team from stepping out In
front.
Cravath hns been blamed for tho lack of
tho "punch" In tho Phllly offense, but this
Is nn Injustice. Tho slugging outfielder
failed Just as ofton In tho early stages of
tho 1915 season, but nt that tlmo Ludorus
and Bancroft wero clubbing nt a terrific
rate, and they picked up where Crnvath
left olf. Craath Is hitting over .300, nnd
a large number of Ills safeties havo pro
duced runs.
Tho difference In tho 1915 and 1916 punch
la Just ns great as tho dlffercnco between
tho 1916 nnd 191C averages Of Luderus and
Bancroft at this tlmo of tho year, Both
wero hitting above tho .300 mnvk for tho
first thrco months of tho season, while Lu
doruB finished Becond to Jake Daubcrt for
the leadership. Today Luderus Is batting
,208, while Bancroft's mark Is .154.
Another drawback has bcon tho hitting
of tho reservo strength. Last season tho
substitutes, ono of whom was Stock, could
Jump into tho game nt a moment's notlco
and hold up their ond with tho stick. Such
has not been the case this season, as the
averages of Byrno, Cooper and Goode prove
conclusively. None of tho trio Is abovo .200,
whllo Cooper and Goodo ar5 considerably
below this mark.
Tho Phillies surely will Improve na thcro
1b hardly a man on tho team playing nbove
his game, unless It Is Paskert, whllo sev
eral are below form. When they reach their
1915 form, tho team Is certain to advance,
but tho return must soon be on Its way, as
Boston and Chicago also are due to start
climbing, while Brooklyn and New York
may keep up their present speed longer, than
expected.
Alexander the "Great will go to tho mound
for the Phillies In tho first game of tho
series with Pittsburgh this afternoon, whllo
Al Afatnaux, the real leader of tho National
League pitchers, wilt oppose Moran'B Btar.
A great pitching duel should result, as both
Alexander and Mamaux havo been mowing
down their opponents with clocklike regu
larity. It lias been nine daya since Alexander
has pitched The Phllly star worked
against the Cardinals on Saturday, Juno 3,
and has not becji on the mound since. As
a rule, Alexander has trouble with his con
trol after a long nbsence from tho mound,
but ho worked out Thursday, Friday and
Saturday between showers and Is In excel
lent condition. '
It is said that Dick Rudolnh was fined
ty Bfnnagar Stalllngs for falling to keep
in condition, nuuolpn is now DacK in
L shape and the IJraves should start climbing.
itngoiii ryier ann liugnes navo ocen pucii
Ing splendid ball, but Manager Stalllngs
has been u'nablo to find a fourth pitcher
capable of going tho Touto. Young Jesi
Barnes and Art Nehf havo been too wild
to show tholr true form, but also aro round
ing Into form now.
Young Neal, Cincinnati's recruit out
fielder, Is said to be a marvelous fielder
and his ability has caused Manager Ilerzog
to make some switches on 'the last homo
stand of tho rieds. With Chase unfamiliar
with tho outfield. Ilerzog has switched Neal
from center to left and back again, accord
ing to the batters. If a left field hitter
was at tho plate for tho visitors. Neal
switched over to left, whllo If tho following
hitter was a center or right field hitter,
Neal would Immediately switch back. This
was done only with men on bases, but It
worked so well, Ilerzog may continue to
switch until Chase Is accustomed to play
ing the outfield.
BUSH MAY PITCH TODAY
By ROBERT W. MAKWELL
CLEVELAND, 0., Juno 12. Connlo
Mack today began to whittle down his
pitching staff, when ho shipped Mlnot
Crowell, tho former Brown University
twlrler, to Baltimore. Crowell leaves hero
tonight nnd Is expected to Join tho Inter
national League club on Wednesday
Tho boss of the Athletics' has worked
hard with tho young pitcher this year, and
after several starts, It wns decided that
Crowell needed moro oxpcrlenco He hrttl n
peculiar ovcrhanU delivery, which was not
nt all effective, bo It was changed to n
sldo-nrm motion. Tho pitcher showed somo
Improvement nnd It Is expected tliat no will
bo bnck again under the big top when he
gets more experience.
Tho star hurlers controlled by Connlo
havo been treated with much disrespect by
the Cleveland club during their short visit
here. Saturday tho Indians took a fall out
of threo nharpshooters and yesterday the
well-known Elmer Myers was chaied after
two stormy Innings. Jack Nabors, who re
lieved him, went along flno for flvo Innings,
allowing but four hits and one run, nnd
Tom Shcchan went through the last session
without a blnglo chalked up against him.
Hitting Ball Hard
The players on tho Cleveland club aro
hitting the ball now, and all pitchers look
alike to them. They hit tho pill right on
tho nose, and they hit It hard. Any
team that can get to Myers for six hits In
two stanzas Is going some, nnd that Is Just
what tho Indians aro doing Every rami
In the llno-up Is fattening his bnttlng aver
age and, unless there Is a slump In the
near future, tho Forest City has tho best
chance In tho world to cop tho pennant nnd
Indulge In the big chnmplonshlp series next
fall
Tho people In tho town nre crazy about
the game, tho team, tho management and
everything else connected with the club.
They turn out In huge droves and tho pnrk
Is comfortnbly filled at every contest Sat
urday and Sunday are tho big days, and
tho S n. O. sign is being used regularly.
Yesterday thero were as many people at
the game as genernlly stay awny from
Shlbo Park, and. that's a wholo lot. It
surely Is u lesson for fans In other cities,
notably Philadelphia, for tho players, en
cournged by the homo crowd, play better
than they know how. If Philadelphia would
glvo more support to tho Athfetlcs better
baseball would bo seen.
The plnyers seem to be lost In this city,
where they are not nnnoyed by rnln, con
ventions or preparedness parades. The
only thing they havo to do now is to go out
and grit scalped by the Indians every after
noon and read all aboijt It the next
morning.
Easy for Gandil .
Chick Gandlll had an easy time of It dur
ing the game, getting but two put-outs nnd
ono assist. The thirteen strlke-outs helped
some, and tho fielders wero kept busy pull
ing down long files.
When Morton struck out four men In ono
Inning yesterday, Ernest Lnnnigan, tno
statistician who Is working hero, recalled
a similar caBO and hold It up as a world's
record.
"In 1910," ho said, "Houston was playing
San Antonio. Wllllo Mitchell was pitching
for Houston, and In one Inning struck out
Beven men. Dolly Stark, who was cntchlng,
had many passed-balls, and as n result, four
runs were scored. Now, I really bellovc
that four runs on seven strikeouts Is a
world's record, nnd I dare any ono to pro
duce anything that can beat It."
"Bullet Joe" Bush, who arrived from his
homo in Bralnard, Minn., yesterday, prob
ably will pitch today, nnd Schang, If his
hand will stand. It, Is slated to go behind
the plato. Coumbo Is likely to be the cholco
of Leo Fohl for the Indians.

ATHLETES FAVOR
EVENING LEDGER
COMPETITIONS
Games to Be Conducted
Weekly on Quarter Mile
Path at Woodside Park
SCHOOLBOYS INTERESTED
Tho plan to hold n sorlcs of athletic
camea on tho quarter-mile cinder trnck nt
Woodsldo Park tlurlnB tho summer has
scored an emphatic hit nmone tha young
sters who nro desirous of keeping In good
physical condition during tho hot summer
months. Tho efforts of tho Hvenino
Lcdoer, which brought nlmut the games, nro
already hearing fruit, nnd n deal of satis
faction 13 being openly expressed by tho
Municipal Athletic Leaguo ofllclal-" and the
principals who compete under tho organiza
tion rules nnd regulations.
Schoolboys nre not slowito show a proper
appreciation for anything that benefits them
and In this ago of nthlotlCH, when nlmost
every lad alms to accomplish something out
of coiAnon on tho cinder path or In tho field
athletic events, the opportunity to shlno
under conditions fnorable to fair competi
tion, tho feeling nmong the schoolboys Is
bubbling over with enthusiasm, and they
long for "Taps" to sound on educational
work so that they will bo able to devote
more time to outdoor sports and pastimes.
Many Suggestions
Jinny suggestions nnd Inquiries havo
been received by Director of Gnmcs Ernest
H. Crowhurst nt Woodsldo Turk, and ns
the meets aro being promoted In tho In
terest of theso youngsters, nny recom
mendation bearing tho Htamp of common
sense and looking to tho well being of tho
young lads In theso games will recolvo tho
closest nttentlon nnd bo adopted, providing
they will In any way facilitate the games.
Several requests have been received as
to tho date of tho opening' meet. This was
set originally on Saturday, Juno 17, but as
many of tho boys will bo In the midst of
their cxnmliia'tloni It hns been thought
advisable to advance tho date for ono
week, making It June 24. Boys aro anxious
to win promotion In school, nnd the Kven-
ino Lnnaen Is anxious to do everything pos
slble to help the boys accomplish their pur
pose, and for this reason the requests ap
pear fair and reasonable. Therefore, tho
llrst of the Woodsldo meets will take place
on Saturday, June 21. This arrangement Is
satisfactory to the Woodsldo management,
nnd Mr, Crowhurst strongly Indorses tho
change. Ho promises to have the track In
excellent shape for tho youngsters on this
data and everything will be in readiness
for what promises to bo the greatest Juve
nile athletic games ever held ln this city.
An Early Start
Another Important change has been the
time of starting tho first event eery Sat"
urday morning. It was originally Intended
to schedule tho first event at 10 o'clock,
but the schoolboys think this hour too early
for their relatives to reach the park, As
the meets are being promoted for the
schoolboys, their wishes In the matter have
also been consulted In this, and the first
event will be called promptly at 1 p. ro.
each Saturday. Tho nvENiwo Ledobr
wishes to make it emphatic that In naming
1 p. m. It ,1s Intended to adhere rigidly to
this Ume Sir. Crowhurst will start the
first heat at this time and anybody whff
falls to answer to his name will not bo
permitted to start In the event. Prompt
ness must b.e ' enforced, as the number of
entries will make it necessary to run oft
the program with as Httla delay as pos
sible. Boys are no different to adults In that
they do better work In competition under
stimulating: effects of applause and encour
agement, and by "changing the starting time
to 1 p. m. It will enable the parents ana
friend of the boys to he on hand for the
first heat,
It is the Intention of the Woodside Park
management to leave notblpg undone that
will promote the comfort and convenience
of the contestants. Director Crowhurst ad

"Well, Jim Ten Kyck'n nbout duo this year."
Nono of tho conches nro admitting that
Syracuse hns the better crew, not oven Ten
Kyck himself. If history repents Itself,
Judging from tho mengro comments of

what Is tho seventh point and who wns the
original masked mnrol are open books
compared to Ten Eyck. After a fast tlmo,
trial n few days ngo Ten Eyck was asked
how fast his crow had covered tho four
miles.
"I didn't tlmo them," he replied. "That
was only n paddle." While the intervlowor
was blinking his eyes In an attempt to get
his bearings ho missed Ten Kyck's wink
to his sterling squad of oarsmen.
Non-committal
"Do you think you have a. good crew?"
the Intervlower continued blindly.
"I don't know," Ten Kyck replied. "We
hacn',t rowed a raco this year, unless of
courso you call beating tho Navy n race."
Tho Inters lower replied that he thought Ten
Kyck had moro up his sleeve than was

Woodbury Has Boy
Marvels
By SANDY BIcNIIJLICK
NO ONK up to the present ever hns
stepped forward In nil tho thousands
of yenrs during Which tho globe has been
on n revolution to offer to tho world a
southpaw golf tournament. The North
Hills Country Club, n bustling local hand,
gets the honor of being tho first club, bo
far as Is known, to hold a left-hand tour
nament. The fnmo of tho tourney has
spread all oor tho country nnd It Is prob
ablo thnt many other clubs will hold similar
events during tho season.
Tho North Hills ovent will he held to
morrow. About CO southpaws will bo In
tho going, nccordlng to tho committee In
charge. Among them will bo several stars.
It. C Maxwell, of Trenton, who labors
under a national handicap of only live
strokes, will ho ono of tho early starters,
and tho Jersey portnldor Is expected to glvo
tho field n fine run
H. Wellington Wood, formerly of Old
York road, but now playing from Atlantic
City, Is entered. H. Wellington Wood had
a flno 42 at Lu Lti Inst week for tho nine
holes, nnd If he has ono of his sunny and
congratulatory days, he will surely make
things hum for tho other nldewheolcrs,
Malcolm Dyer nnd Chnrlcs A. Iloden nro
two other prominent entries who have
turned the courso In good figures. Only
threo left handcra from North Hills will he
In tho going.
Steam Roller Got Tourney
Thnro are only five there nltogother, con
trary to tho goneral Impression that tho
tourney resulted from tho fact that tbero
were so many southpaws at tho club.
Two of theso nro members of tho Golf
Committee, W. W. Dudley and L. W.
nrmvn wlilr.li overwhelming majority on
tho committee of thrco may havo had
something to do with tho decision to run
tho tournoy.
Tho tournoy Is open to nil members of tho
Golf Association of Philadelphia. A 36
holo contest will bo held for thoso that can
nnnnrl flip rlV nt tllO KdgO Hill COUrBO.
Thero will also bo an 18-holo tourney ln tho
afternoon.
Tho going will bo handicap medal play.
Somo particularly handsome prizes hro on
display for low net and low gross In each
event. The commtttce announce that It will
havo the greatest "collection of southpaws
In captivity" nt work tomorrow. The only
restriction Is thnt rlglit-hnnded balls must
be used.
H I) Prest Is chairman of tho committee.
It will bo Impoaslblo to play over any of
tho many new holes nt the courso, but the
regular links are In tho finest of shape, and
there ought to be somo good scoring, oven If
tho contestants do work Btdowaya.
Jersey's Terrible Boy Trio
The Woodbury Country Club has a trl-
nngle of youthful golf prodigies that would
bo hard to bent. Any ono of them would
havo been good enough to pjay No. 1 In tho
suburban tournament that ended In the title
going to Woodbury.
Walter Wllklns, Jr., Is only a llttlo moro
than 17 years old. He laid Jow the mighty
Herbert B. Newton, lead-oft man for Frank
ford, who played Walter Reynolds In the
finals, at Lu Lu on Saturday. Newton is a
veteran of long standing and Is ono of the
hardest of the locals to beat In match
play. Wllklns plays In bcnutlful form,
though ho has not the strength ns yet to
play a long game. Wllklns piled up points
In a terrific manner over his homo course
ngalnat Invading suburbanites In tho recent
tourney, nnd a great future Is predicted for
him ln the realm of golf.
Another tartnr at tho Jersey club is
George Hoffner, a brother of the phenom
enal pro Charlie. Experts claim that George
would bo as good, If not better, than his
brother If ho had tho same amount of tlmo
to put into golf, for he Is steadier. Ills
employment keeps him away from golf till
after G o'clock, and by tho time he has
knocked a few balls around the course It
is dark.
Ho showed his class In tho finals In tho
suburban, when he walloped Maurle Jones,
of Frankford, nfter the latter had him
down at tho turn. Jones was one of the
shiniest of tho local stars Inst year. Either
George Washington or Charles ateenwoulij
make a good third corner to the tilo.
Both are players just ln their 20s and
nre burning up the Jersey sands with their
golf. They laid a very healthy shoulder to
the wheel In getting tho championship for
Woodbury.
Edward C. Clarcy, a. young rooklo whoso
glitter this season has set all the local vet
eran experts to blinking, forms a circle in
himself as leader of the Woodburyltes. The
young man Is blnzlng a new path through
local tourneys this season. He has shown
ln them all.
Tomorrow he will go forth to do battle
with Sidney Sharwood, of Morion, to play
off the tie at the Cricket Club for the
Joseph Henry Patterson Memorial Cup, He
will play a practlco round at the Cricket
Club this afternoon by way of getting In
form, and thinks he will bo In shape tu
run away with the trophy tomorrow.
Clarey hua practically no tlmo for golf
except the time he takes out for tourna
ment play. He gets home from his ofllce
at 5:30, snatches up his bag and hlos forth
to two big fields near his home. There he
lines out drives, brassies and Iron shots un
til the kid he has on duty can't nnd the
balls In the dusk.
"That's why my putting Is so poor, says
Clarey, "I never get a chance to practice.'
Was Schoolboy Golfer
Clarey la aUo In his twenties.
He started his golf as a caddy, and gave
up caddylng to play while he was Irv h gh
school. His flrBt tournament was In the
Inteiecholastlo Ave years ngo, when he was
beaten out by Gardiner White.
He gave up tho game till last year, when
he Joined the Woodbury Club late in the
season. He came near winning the At
lantic City tourney this spring. He was
beaten at Lu Lu by Walter Reynolds when
he missed his shot across the quarry for
the first time In the tourney. The match
ended on the 18th hole, after his ball, hook
i ,. ihA irreen. not mixed in a tree.
Clarey hopped a stymie game to tho end,
but Reynolds sank his putt for the match.

ETIQUETTE OF GOLF
Thero are certain things which should be.
observed by nil golfers, nnd whllo they nre 1
not a. part of tho rules governing- the game,
thoy nro Just as essential ns if they had
beon Incorprntcd In the rules. Out nt
Cobb's Creek golf links, where In tlmo the
courso will bo crowded with beginners,
even' one who Intonds to play there should
be familiar with what Is known ns the eti
quette of golf.
When another player is making a stroke,
no mattor where ho Is, no one Bhould stand
closo to him or directly ln back of the ball
or in such n position ns to disturb the
player. No ono should movo or talk while
n player Is making a stroke, for it tnkes a
lot Of mnnpntrntlnn fn mnl, .1.-, a
player Is very easily disturbed by the
mocmonts or comorsatlons of others.
Wbon the other man has tho honor, bo
careful not tn ton vm,,. i,ii i... u. ,......
No ono should play from the teo until thoso
in irunt niwo piayea tneir second shots nnd
nro out of range. The rule nt Cobb's
Creek Is that the tee Bhot must not bo
made until tho party ahead Is 200 yards
away Unless this -ule Is observed thero Is
danger of hitting one of the players. Tho ,
moro fact that you nro n beginner Is no
excuse for breaking this rule, ns many
times beginners get off some, long shots,
nnd the old rulo of "safety first" is always
tho best.
It Is a safe rulo not to play either from
tho teo or the fairway or rough until It is
reasonably certain that the players nhead
aro In no danger of being struck.
Most of tho holes nt the public links are
ono or two Bhot holes. Never play up to
the putting green until the players on It
havo holed out and moved nway. Of
courso. In tho case of tho one-shot holes It
is never permissible to piny until the players '
have reached the green, putted nnd moved
away. It means a little delay, but this rule
must be strictly observed by all golfers.
Playora who have holed out should
promptly leave the putting green and should
not try putts over again when thcro aro
other players waiting to approach the
green.
Thero Is a rule of golf which will be ex
plained later that ft you lose your ball you
aro given a certain tlmo to find It before
any penalty Is exacted. This refers more
particularly to your own match. But the
player who loses a ball owes something to
the players back of him. If you lose your
ball and nro looking for It and there aro
players back of you do not wait for them
to nsk you to lot them through, hut wave
to them.
After you have waved to them, which la
tho ordinary slgnnl ln golf, you should not
continue your play until they have passed
you and nro out of reach, even if you should
find your ball Immediately after you have
given the signal. Very many players Who
know better nfter waving other players to
go through Insist on playing, but the only
fair way Is to let the others pass through
after you have once asked them to,
Tho rule about replacing cut turf has
already been referred to. Thero 13 an
equally Important ono, and that la when
you aro In a bunker you should Bmooth
out the holes made by yourself. Otherwise
the bunker will bo filled with footprints
and holes made by the club ln playing the
ball out. nnd this makes It hard for the
plnyers who follow if their golf balls should
lie in these holes.
