PJillmont Tourney Weather Prevails
Some strango freak of tho weather gods
thvavs seems to bring down a poor brand
tf wathtr waves on tourneys this year at
(Phllmont. Yesterday a high wind twisted
, and dipped through tho slopes of tho course
and ms.de the cards of tho entries In tho
sixth annual dinner tourney of tho Golf
Association of Philadelphia extremely high.
Also, blackfaced clouds menaced tho play
and shed some little wnter over tho golfcra
as the day wore on. It seemed llko a raw
October day that wasn't quite cold enough
for snow.
- Many Biff Handicaps

BECK AND WILSON
DEFEAT WALSH
AND PENNOCK
Fine Tennis Played in Boys'
Doubles at Merion
.Cricket Club
SEMIFINALS TODAY
Boys' doubles in tournament play are
usually more of a Joke than anything else,
but the two matches played yesterday at
Merlon In the junior city tftle play looked
more like Pennsylvania State champion
ship than anything else.
nodney.Beck and Searing Wilson sprang
a great surprise by defeating the crack
Penn Charter team "Bud" Walsh and
Sam Pennock In straight sets, 10-8, 6-3.
Beck and Wilson played together with the
assurance of a team of experienced players,
while their opponents, Individually superior,
could not get together. Penpock had to
beap the brunt of the attack and for one
set he was equal to the task. The second
set he broke under the storm,- while both
Beck and Wilson Improved; Walsh, as al
ways, played good, consistent tennis.
Searing Wilson, the junior Indoor cham
pion, was remarkable overhead, winning
many points by clean kills.
The best match of the day was the semi
final double. In which Huhn and Wler de
feated Vanneman and March, 6-t, 8-6. It
was the best boys' tennis ever played In
Philadelphia. Both teams hit hard and
made few errors.
The bright star of the affair was Mar
shall Vanneman, who bora the burden of
play for the losing team, Vanneman vol
leyed unusually wejl and hit accurately
from the baseline. The match was lost
by an unfortunate bit of bad judgment by
Roy March, He had set point n tho sec
ond set when he dropped an. easy lob, which
fell In by 6 feet. There was no reason to
let the ball fall, since It was an easy kljl.
March, however, played well throughout
the whole match.

NABORS TO DO HURLING
ALEXANDER HAS SHUT OUT
OPPONENTS SIX TIMES AND
JUST .MISSED FOUR OTHERS
One Bad Inning in Quartet of Games Prevented
Philly Wonder From Blanking Rivals in
Ten of Eleven Victorious Games
By ROBERT W. MAXWELL
DETROIT, Mich., June 16. In an effort
to bust up that streak of hard luck that
has followed tho team slnco It left New
York last month, Connie Mack today wiped
Wnlly Schang'o name off the maimed and
injured list nnd told him to report for
strenuous duty behind the bat this after
noon. Wnlly has been nfTllcted with an
lnvatld mitt for tho past couple of weeka
and has been sitting In chiefly as a pinch
hitter of late. He was uaed In ono of the
Cleveland games, but had to retire after
a fow Innings. The catcher Is In ,good
shape now, howover, nnd hla presence should
greatly strengthen the club.
When one considers the fact that the
Athletics have not won a regular leagua
game this month, It Is amazing how the
players keep up their pep nnd spirit. In
tho field they play Just as well as any
team, but at bat they are woefully wenk.
It Is this batting slump that Is responsible
for the largo number of dpfeats. and they
will continue until some Improvement Is
shown.
Pick LeodB Off
Taking the batting order from Witt down,
the only man who has been at all consistent
Is Charlie Pick, nnd his average Is nothing
to be proud of. Strunk, Larry, Stuffy Mc-
Tn. nn.1 Tlmmv Wnlnh nlRfl fllA in the dot-
drums, and a base hit to them looks as
big as the City Hall. Tho club Is going
Just the opposite to Cleveland, as tho In
dians can hit everything dished up to them,
regardless of who Is doing tho dishing. But
the slump Is about to end, and the young
gentlemen employed by Mr. Mack will break
a couple of legs In an effort to regain their
stride and halt that slide down tho tobog
gan beforo they got home.
As Is always the case with a losing
team, everything seems to break wrong In
tho game Take yesterday's combat for an
example. Bush was pitching better than
at any other time this year, and the Tigers
were eating out of his hnnd. In four In
nings he whiffed five and allowed but one
questionable hit, which Pick threw to the
grand stand. IHooked easy for Joseph, but
a fluke triple Just Inside the first base line
nnd Pick's failure to cover third on a sac
rifice, gavo Detroit its first score, and Witt's
terrible error on Young's easy grounder,
when he had a chance to get tho man at the
plate, caused another score. Tho "breaks"
of the game were not with the Macks,nor
have they been for some tlmo. It seems to
be the regular excuse of the loser, but It la
true that the club has been playing In
mighty hard luck.
And this tough luck pursues the players
off the ball field. In St. Louis they ran
Into preparedness parades and rehearsals
of the big Democratlo conclave, nnd In
Chicago they met the Republican Conven
tion accompanied by lots of rain. Even In
Grand Rapids they were greeted by the
Knights of the Maccabees and the Mystic
Workers of the World, who were meeting
there, and now In Detroit all of the doctors
In the world are meeting to discuss the
various ways to reduce the death rate.
Doctors Assemble
The Docs are,ln the Cadillac In. full force,
nnd In one corner of the lobby there 1b a
long table with a Blgn over It bearing the
words, "Reception Committee." Last night
after dinner the tired athletes began to
think of the loved ones at home and de
cided to write a few letters. All of the
tables except the long one In the corner
were occupied; so Witt, McInnlB, Schang
and Strunk sat In chairs, absolutely Ignor
ing the huge sign qverhead.
They wero writing furiously when a
dignified, bewhlskered gentleman, who
probably will vote for Hughes next fall,
walked up to the table and halted before
Witt The stranger cleared Ills throat
and drummed nervously on the table to
attract "Whltey,". Who was sitting with
bowed head and fighting a terrible battle
with the word. "Massachusetts." Finally
ho looked up and gated In open-mouthed
wonderment, when the bewhlskered gentle
man said;
"1 ah, beg pardon, but could you kindly
direct mo to tho cllnlo on therapudlcs. and
the lecture on orthopedics? I would like
very much to meet my delegation from the
Los Angeles Medical Association, now
quartered In this hotel. Where are theyr
'Hunt' Teplled Witt, and he looked
around for help, hla mouth still open and a
blank stare covering his face. But hla
companions had fled and were enacting the
roles of spectator behind convenient post.
Witt gulped a. couple of times and finally
blurted outi . . t . .
"AU I know Is that we got beat today
and that !"' B"l nothing to do with what
you are asking." Then, before the aur
prised questioner could recover, tho youth
ful shortstop beat an undignified, but
hasty retreat and was not seen again that

By CHANDLER D. RICHTER
BAD breaks and an inclination to ease
up In tho closing Innings have deprived
Alexander the Great of nt' lenst four shut
out victories this season. Perhaps It la
best that the wonderfut Philly hurler eases
up after being given n lead, but the fans
who have been pulling for tho monarch of
National League pitchers to hang up a new
record for shut-outs, point out that Alex
has lost three shut-out victories within tho
last three weeks by tho narrowest margin.
Yestorday's victory over tho Reds was
the eleventh of tho season for Alexander.
Six of these triumphs have been shut-outs,
and In four other victories Alexander has
been scored upon In only one Inning, which
Is perhaps the greatest exhibition of con
sistent pitching In years. Even when Alex
ander was going nt his best In 1015 ho was
not so steady,
Tho control of the Philly stnr has been
better than ever. In his laBt three games
he has parsed only ono man, and he wnlkcd
because Alexander tried to make him hit at
bad balls, preferring to wnlk him rather
than allow him to hit at a good ono with
runners In position to score. This was Cor
han, of tho Cardinals, with Pitcher Mead
ows coming up next.
"Alex" had pitched two straight shut-outa
and six Innings of another when the Cubs
broke the run of scoroless Innings by get
ting three runs after two men hnd been
retired In the fifth Inning of n game In
which the Phils had n six-run lead. Alex
ander eased up with Hendrlx at the bat In
this- Inning, or he would have blanked
Tinker's team.
Shut Out Brooklyn
He followed this up with a shutout vic
tory over the Dodgers and thon lost to the
Giants. Tho Cardinals were Alexander's
next shutout victim nnd then he had the
Pirates blanked until the ninth Inning. Two
men wero out when he took a chance on
grooving a ball for Johnston. The latter
doubled to left and came all the way home
from second on Wagner's Infield single.
Yesterday Alexander had the Reds shut
out until the eighth Inning and would have
completed the Job If Herzog'a ordinary
single hnd not gotten away from Cravath
and rolled to the fence for a triple. This
hit almost cost the Phils the game and In
stead of getting another well-earned shut
out Alexander had to work himself out of
a hole to save the game.
The total of nine hits made off Alexander
by the Reds yesterday would naturally lead
ono to believe that the Ncbraskan had
been batted hard, but such was not the
case. Six of the nlno safeties made by
Herzog's team were scratches. Four wero
Infield hits, which were beaten out on
close plays, while two were pop files over
the Infield.
Alexander was not batted hard and after
the second Inning was complete master un
til the Reds got a lucky break In the eighth
and scored their lone run.
Chase Injured .
Hal Chase made his first local appear
ance In the National League and made an
excellent Impression. The famous first
baseman appears to be quite at home In
tho outfield and Is still able to hit the
ball hard. Chase has been troubled with
a lame knee and when he turned first after
whaling the ball to the bleacher fence In
left for a double, Hal pulled up so lame
that Manager Herzog was forced to send
Wade Klllefer Into the game.
This was one lucky break the Phils got.
If Chase had been In the game In the
eighth Inning, the chnncea are that the
Reds would have tied the score, as tho
former American Leaguer probably would
have been able to score Herrog with a long
fly or some sort of a hit. Klllefer, who re
placed him, popped weakly to Stock, and
Alexander pulled out of a tight place.
Bill Klllefer-e work behind the bat was hlsb
rlaiB It wti easily tbe best esnlDltion ine
brUUint refver ha. atven since his return to
th. iVm.: Hill had five assist., four of these
bIHfnf th. haM.st.aUna- '.' .Re,dh,j
while th. other wu on a bunt In '' ot tn.
Pl.t. which r.qulr.d fast work. KUl.f.r also
Eandl.4 two throws at th. plat, which retired
runners. .
P.te Schneider la a much-Improved pitcher.
H.rioa ha. chansed th. giant Westerner from
a. .tralght overhand to a side-arm pitcher, and
he has dv.loped a areat curv. ball. Last a,.
son Pet. depended upon his speed and did not
have much of a curve, but now he mixes them
well and ha. areat control. This youngster
should develop Into one of the ery best pitchers
In ths le.au. before the cloae of the eeaeon.
Th. neds save a horrible exhibition of base
running. Two men were caught napplna off
rtrst base, while th. double-steal failed bo
cause Qroh was asleep at third and did not
.tart until he .aw that Klllefer'. throw to
second waa high enough to pull Bancroft oft his
balance. The latter made a quick recovery,
and by making; a splendid return to Klllefer
nailed tho lied third-baseman.
It wa. unfortunate that Itersog erred at n,
critical .tag. after hi. brilliant exhibition ot
fielding, ilerzog I. not eo graceful a. Dan
croft, but I. a wonder at short. If. plays th.
batter, better than the Philly ahortatop and
make, difficult chances easy, becauso he Is
watting for hit. which the average shortstop la
not abl. to get near. He Is ,0. hustler and a
fighter, and has no weakness. Bancroft and
Chapman are the only shortstops In either league
In the same class with the lied shortstop.

DEVON TO PLAY
COUNTRY CLUB IN
TROPHY CONTEST
Polo Teams Meet Today in
Third Match for Fox
Hunters' Cup
BRYN MAWR IS WINNER
Philadelphia Country Club va. Devon la
the polo attraction, weather permitting, on
tho Main Line field this afternoon. In the
third match for the Fox Hunters' Cup.
The contest Is scheduled for 4:30.
With a mighty rush, started In the final
period of play by Alfred M. Collins, who
scored two goals In brilliant fashion, the
Bryn Mawr Club first polo team dofeated
tho club's Freebooters yesterday nfternoon
by a score of 16H sonls to 13. It waB the
sooond match for tho Fox Hunters' Cup,
nnd as tho teams lined up Bryn Mawr
would have been obliged to conccdo Its
oppononts 12 goals. Tho conditions of tho
trophy, howover, limited the handicap al
lowance to eight goals. Even with this
concession, the Freebooters hold tho lead
until tho final period of play, tho score nt
tho end of the seventh period bolng 13 to
13 In their favor. Thon Mr. Collins roso
to tho occasion and, with Mr. Hopping, tal
llod sufficient goals to lnsuro victory.
The chilly air and splendid springy con
dition of tho turf invited fnst galloping
and the players of both teams took full
advantage. There wero many races from
goal to goal. Furlongn wero reeled oft at
a racing clip. Each goal was hard earned.
Messrs. Hopping and Collins were In fine
strobe and rarely missed goals when tho
ball was passed up. The former tallied
eight goals, while tho latter drove seven.
Tho Freebooters gavo a superb exhibition
of defonslvo play, and would likely have
won out hud It not been for tho constant
changes In tho team. Two were necessary.
Rodman Wanamalter's mounts wero late In
arriving at the field and he acted as refereo
for the first period, T. L. Harrison, Jr., tak
ing his place In the line-up. ,
At the end of the third period Alexander
Coxo Yarnall's mount got its head on turn
ing toward tho paddock, and ran away.
As It galloped down the Incline back of the
goal posts Its forelegs buckled, and Mr.
Yarnall took a regular cropper. He slid
along the slippery turf for fully 20 feet, his
head striking a water bucket. Tho impact
smashed the wood receptaclo, nnd Mr, Yar
nall was stunned, and for the moment was
rendered unconscious. His helmet alono
saved him from serious Injury.
Ho was badly shaken up and rested dur
ing the fourth period along the side lines,
but Insisted on resuming the game In the
fifth period, and played to the finish. Mr.

thlroVperlod, the groundkeeper throwing th
ball In for play. Then he played n period
for Mr, Brown, who officiated as referee
until the slxth'perlod, when Mr, George got
In the saddle, and was the arbiter ot fouls
and cross riding.
The Toto Committee of the Bryn Mawf
Club decided' yesterday that, owing to the)
fact that P. S. r. Randolph, Jr., and Win
ter Randolph, who played on the Bryn
Mawr Freebooters' team, were not member.)
of the organization, the club could not claim
final posesldn of the Wootton Cup. Tho
trophy, therefore, will bo continued to be)
played for next season.
