MORAN IS NOW WELL FORTIFIED IN PITCHING DEPARTMENT FOR DOUBLE-HEADERS
BROOKLYN PITCHING STAFF,
BADLY BATTERED BY PHILS,
PROFITED BY POSTPONEMENT
4 1 I. ... ...1.
Though Playing Conditions Were Improvement
Over Those of Monday, Owner Ebbets
Decided to Call Off Game
THE postponement of yesterday's gamo bctweon tho rhlllles and Dodgers was
of great advantage to tho latter team and tho Phillies wero bitterly disappointed.
They had tho Dodgers on tho run and Itoblnson's pitching staff had been so badly
battered In tho first three games of tho series that tho only available hurlcr for
yesterday's game, If It had been played, was Jack Coombs.
Tho former Mackman warmed up and was Just about to pitch tho first ball
when tho rain began to fall so heavily that It was decided to postpono tho game.
"Chief Bendar, a teammate of Cbombs on tho famous Mack pitching staff, had
been selected by Mo ran to opposo tho old "fron Man," and, Judging by tho way tho
veterans warmed up, chances favored another Phllly victory. Bender looked
better than at any tlmo this season, whllo Coombs looked very much tho samo as
en Tuesday, when ho was driven from tho mound.
Every Brooklyn pitcher, excepting Sherrod Smith, has opposed the Phils, and
none was nblo to stop the slugging of tho champions; bo Itoblnson was In a bad
way for pitching, as Smith has not recovered entirely 'from a slight attack of
tho grip. Tho day of rest enabled Brooklyn to recover from tho effects of tho
thrco successlvo Jolts, and also will make two or three other hurlers avallablo for
tho lost two games.
Phils Well Equipped With Pitchers for Doublc-hcndera
THE present series has brought out clearly tho strength of tho Phllly pitching
staff In numbers. Tho Brooklyn staff was shot td pieces In two days, whereas tho
Phils had four first-string hurlers In prlmo condition for yesterday. Wo contended
a week ago that tho Phils -wero well equipped with pitching material for tho doublo
beaderif which aro to come, and tho present series Is concluslvo proof. Even If
the Phils had bcon beaten twice yesterday, Moran would havo had a star ready for
today's game, as ho would not havo wasted seven pitchers In two days.
Tho present series has brought ono thing homo forcibly to tho Brooklyn fans.
It Is that Charloy Ebbetts thinks more of tho dollar than they had been led to
bellcvo after reading some of his glowing speeches. "Whllo there Is not tho slightest
doubt that real basoball would havo bcon Impossible yesterday, It might bo
woll to call attention to tho fact that tho field was In better shapo (It not having
rained a drop until 3:20), and It did not rain so hard at gamo time as on Monday;
but the gamo was postponed without waiting tho customary half hour.
On Monday there wero 10,000 fans present at gamo tlmo. Yesterday there
Woto less than 1000, owing to tho threatening weather. Ono thousand fans aro a
small crowd when ono considers that tho Plillllci and Brooklyn aro battling for
first place. A double-header today should draw 15,000; so It Is easy to see that It
makes qulto a lot of dlftcrenco whether tho stands arc filled, and tho weather In
Brooklyn Is Judged accordingly.
Brooklyn Ticket Sellers Misled Fans
ANOTHER thing which leads ono to believe that the Brooklyn club, in Its mad
. doslro to got tho money, Is losing friends, Is tho claim of about 100 fans that
they wero informed at tho gate In the sixth Inning on Monday that tho second
gamo would bo played. They paid their admission and saw only thrco innings
when It was announced that tho second gamo had been postponed. Tho rain
checks wero no good, as flvo innings" of the originally scheduled gamo had been
.played, and it is not surprising that tho fans aro peeved.
Even if it had cleared off and tho umpires wero inclined to allow tho two
teams to start tho second game, it would havo been Impossible to have played
flvo Innings before darkness. Tho ticket-sellers should havo been notified to this
effect instead of misleading tho fans. It was after r o'clock when the first gamo
was completed, and it would havo been going on 6 before tho second contest was
Started. It is against rules of organized baseball to start tho second gamo of a
doublo-hcader so late, and tho Brooklyn club should havo realized it.
Whittcd Now Playing a la Cobb
WHILE every Phllly plnjcr has dono his part In toppling tho Dodgers, tho
remarkable all around work of Georgo Whittcd has stood out abovo all other
stellar work. Whittcd has played brilliant ball throughout the season and his
, crand base running and Inside play havo been features of many games; but
nothing ho has done In Phllly compares with the stunts ho has pulled off in
tho threo-gamo scrleB with Brooklyn. '
Whltted ha3 pulled tricks on bases whlci? no 4,no but Cobb oven would try.
He went from second to thf homo plate with tho run that put tho Phillies In tho
JenA in tho second game, on i hard hit ball which was handled cloverly by O'Mara
and Daubert. He stole thlru whllo O'Mara held tho ball at tho edgo of tho grass
after ho had pilfered second and also stolo everything but tho grandstand Tho
brilliant outfielder also has fielded in such a sensational manner that tho bleacher
itea have hurled pop bottles at him, Instead of greeting him with applauso as
they do in Phllly.
Introducing the Unfortunate Mr. Mack
JUPITER. PLUVIUS, whofe activities during tho past month havo been a source
of. annoy anco to baseball managers in general and to Connie Mack in particular,
truck his most cruel blow yesterday afternoon. For more weeks than we care
to remember Connie and hla Macklets havo been striving In vain to get on the
long end of a scoro and they apparently wero about to realize their ambition
when Jupo stepped in and saturated tho entire woiks. It was SOME blow
In fact. It was tho most unklndest cut of all.
Of course, no one can guarantee what might havo happened had tho weather
permitted the Athletics and Senators to stay on the mat to a finish. From recent
observations wo freely admit that tho local talent might havo been badly gored
had the game gone nine full Innings. However, the fact remains that the Athletics
were enjoying a two-run lead when J. P. threw a wrench into tho machinery,
and as this Is tho nearest the JIackmen have come to victory In weeks we vora
ciously seize the opportunity for self-pity.
Whether the Athletics wore fated to emerge victorious or again to drink from
the cup of defeat. It cannot be denied that they showed unmlstakablo signs of
emerging from their long batting siesta. The present slump Is duo more to puny
Btlck work than to anything else. Mack's pltchors have been turning in better
work during the last few weeks than they did earlier In the season, and If the
Bten can get to hitting properly the local American League entry should not
stay In the basement long.
More to Be Pitied Than Scorned
THE finger of scorn should not bo leveled at the Mackmen for their weak ash
manipulation without an alloy of sympathy. Let tho super critical keep In
mind the fact that the Shlbo athletes spent Innumerable days wearily wandering
through tho Middle West the land of political conventions and rain without
the diversion offered by work on tho ball field. Our most glgantlo brains lose
their sense of proportion when hovering in the neighborhood of a political con
vention. Why, then, should tho McGUllcuddlans bo censured severely because
their batting feyes became distorted In that rarefied atmosphere?
In the safe and sane boundaries of conservative Philadelphia the Macklets
Bhould get their batting eyes properly focused. If this wholly desirable thing
comes to pass and the pitchers continue to show form, there will not be any
more lengthy losing streaks with the homo talent In the stellar role.
Pitching Stars and the No-hit Game
WITHOUT meaning to deprive Georgo Foster and Hughes of any of the glory
of pitching no-hlt games, it is Interesting to note that Grover Cleveland
'Alexander and Walter Johnson, the greatest pitchers of their time, cannot ac
complish what their humbler contemporaries get away with twice within a week.
Time and time again the two master moundsmen have pitched one and two hit
games, but always some unfortunate accident deprives them of the honor.
Paradoxically, It may bo said that It Is Alexander's and Johnson's very great
ness that makes It a good bet that neither ever will shut out a team with no
hits. Both men are of a high mental calibre; both realize that there Is so much
pitching In every arm and when It Is exhausted there Is only the bushes. Seldom,
it aver, does either man work at full speed from the first Inning to the last. Even
though the score be t'efl they nurse a reserve which Is drawn upon only In a
crucial moment of the game,
Some day either or both men may be forced to work an entire game with
everything they have on every ball. Then we may read of Alexander or Johnson
setting a no-hlt game. Otherwise It is likely that theso two wonderful hurlers
Will go down Into oblivion without having accomplished this feat.
While Heine Zimmerman has created a lot of trouble In baseball circles, every
cne Is glad to hear that the injury he received yesterday is not as bad as at first
reported. It was thought for a, while that Zlm's shoulder was broken, but a later
examination proved that a partial dislocation was the maximum Injury,

DESERT AMATEUR RANKS
World's Greatest Swimmer Now
Convinced Cash Is Preferable
to Cups and Medals
It. D. Benjamin, ono of tho leading
managers of sport celebrities In the game,
has robbed the simon-pure amateur ranks
of one of their greatest stars. Benjamin,
who handles Willie Hoppe, the billiard king,
has signed Duke P. Kahanamoku, the
famous Hawaiian swimmer.
Kahanamoku, the greatest speed swim
mer the world ever has known, has com
peted In his last race as an amateur. When
the Duke won the 50-yard National A. A. U.
championship In the Illinois A. C. tank at
Chicago recently It was his farewell to the
cup lovers, although at that time he had
no Idea of deserting the ranks.
Benjamin took Hoppe to Hawaii on a dual
billiard-playing and rest-seeking trip of
four months. Kahanamoku arrived there,
after his trip through this country, the day
Benjamin departed.

letic fame as one of Finland's representa
tives at the Olympic games in 1912, has
decide not to respend with the National
Guard regiment, the 14 th of Brooklyn, for
Mexican duty.
According to Kolehmalnen's brother,
William, the athlete was induced to join
the regiment under the representation that
all that would be required of .him would be
to take part In athletic games.
NEW YORK, June 22. Capt. W. R.
Jackson, adjutant of the 14th Regiment,
has announced that Kolehmalnen would be
court-martialed for disobedience of orders
unless he reported for service.

4 mlnutea Hocking clipped three houra and 24
mlnutea from tba former mark, held by John
Ennla,
start of the season that after mm-June r
1. Frank Baker would bo batting tin

2. That Lee Magee would bo below .280.
3. That Ray Caldwell would havo won
only two games out of 10 smarts.
4. That Fritz Malsol would bo crippled
and out for two months.
B. That Joe Oedeon would drop from .315
to .227 from Jlay 10 to Juno 15.
Knowing this, would any ono havo been
Inclined to wager that a combination of
John McGraw and Connie Mack would have

Exposing the Miscreant
"Who was It?" writes Jerry J., "that
wrote this last season"
"It isn't raining rain to me,"
Said tittle Johnny Vcdders;
"It isn't rafntiij; rain to me
It's raining double headers."
(The scribe who penned this roundelay
was not Shakespeare but F. P. A.)
As we recall It, there was another rumor
ahioad that Joe Jackson had witnessed his
bet days and was no longor tho clean, free
swutsman of old. Yet In the last six weeks
Jnikson has bubbled from .270 to .360 and Is
now only a halt breath back of Trls Speaker.
Jackson absorbed nine straight hits In one
lump and then had another fit that yielded
seven out of eight times up.
Wo were first Informed that tho Moran
Dlllon match was to be a 10-round affair.
But after reading what the two contenders
havo tii say about It the scrap will hava to
be stopped at the end of 10 or 15 seconds,
as neither will have a head left and onlyta
very Ilttlo of anything clso.
We are told that Alexander Isn't as good
as he was last year. Possibly not. But at
this writing he has won 12 games and
dropped 3. Which Is fair enough for an
oft year
Who Can Answer Him?
Sir Please break this news to me as
gently ns possible. What doth it profit one
to get a 250-yard drive on a 267-yard hole
and then proceed to hash your 17-yard ap
proach, take three putts and wind up with a
5? When your opponent, as mlno did yes
terday, hooks his drive, slices his Iron, tops
his mashle, but rolls It dead to the pin for
a usually simple 4? Or 13 there any an
swer? Buchon.
One Fed in the Case
Sovoral of tho Fed stars may have slipped
after reaching tho National or American
Leagues, but It Is Just as well not to over
look tho case of Nicholas Cullop, the Chll
howle, Va sldewhccler.
Nick had a fine year with tho Feds, but
It was suggested that ho would meet a dif
ferent reception when ho faced major league
batting. Ho may later on. But bo far Nick
hasn't found any club that could beat him
yet and July Is only a step or two away.
As averages go 1.000 does well enough.
Tho Golfer's Alphabet
A is for Alibi, poured from the soul.
For the putts that continued to slip by
the hole.
B is for Bunker regardless of clime,
Where nine-tenths of us spend the bulk of
our time.
O is for Cup icftero the flag shows tha
line
Sometimes for a S and again for a 9,
D is for Divot and also for Dub
Who could stnk his short putts if the oup

E's for Explaining which most of us do
Whv we got 96 and not It.
F is for Flub which is easily made
By hoisting the bean as the mashle is

0 is for Green laid on smooth, rolling

That is easily reached if you use enough
shots,
n is for Hazard where nl&Hofc blades flash.
Where the air reeks with sulphur as scores

1 is for Iron that gets the ball up
And quite often drops It a mite from the

J is for Jock which the same. is the name
Of many a Coot who is there at the game.
K is for something or other, I vow,
But just what it is I can't think of right
now.
L is for Lie, either cuppy or worse.
The kind that you play with a sob and a

it is for Mashle, to hold the shot true,
If you play it fust right, which about

HARVARD EIGHT FAVORITES
OVER THE YALE OARSMEN
NEW HAVEN, Conn, Juno 22.
TODAY the fun begins here, when the
freshmen substitute fours race a mile
and the graduate eights a half mile. These
races will be held late in the evening, The
most Interesting thing about them will be
the appearance of the Yala freshmen In a
Harvard four, which is rigged according to
tho American Idea and possesses swivel
oarlocks. AH year the Yale men have been
using tholepins, and the change during the
last week, slnco they borrowed the shell
from Harvard, has been a subject of much
comment In both quarters.
Yale and Hanardjire rowing more rad
ically different strokes than any two col
lege crews In this country. Yale, following
the ideas of using little leg drive because
of the short slide, depends upon its pro
nounced body swing at the catch and finish
to get the same length out of each stroke
as does Harvard. Another difference is that
Yale Is using tholepins and Harvard swivel
oarlocks.' Yale is also using a flat slide,
all other American crews having an incline
toward the stern of about three-quarters
of an inch to the slide.
Harvard men began betting yesterday,
and offered odds of 10 to 9 they would win
the varsity race. Yale men are taking
these wagers, and have unbounded confi
dence the eight will turn another Burprtsa
this spring, as t did last year.
Owing to mobilisation orders calling
Farkman, of tha llarvard freshmen, and
Hadley and ailnllan. of the Yale second
varsity, to their regiments not later than
Friday night, tha time for all three races on
Friday was changed at a conference here
this afternoon.
Hadley is a son of President Hadley, of
Yale. The freshman raca was moved up
to 9:30 arm. and the second varsity raca
to 10 a. m. The time for starting the var
sity race was postponed until 5:45 p. m.
Captain Low represented Yale and Captain
Morgan and Coach Herrick represented
Harvard at the conference with Iteferea
Melkleham. They made the following an
nouncement: 'JAt a meeting held yesterday afternoon
"between the Yale and Harvard University
prew representatives and the referee of tha
races it was unanimously decided that owing
to the probability of a postponement of the
morning races and the danger of a further
postponement until Saturday, and In view
of the fact that certain members of the
crews must report for military service
not later than Friday night, tha hours
for rowing the morning races should be
changed and tha freshman racq be rowed
at 9; 30 o'clock down stream on the lower
two miles and the second varsity at 10
o'clock over the same course. If either or
both ot these races cannot ba rowed at
these hours, either or both will ba rowed
at any hour either upstream or down
stream at tha discretion of the referee up
to 12 noon. If either or both cannot ba
rowed n the morning either or both post
poned races will be rowed not later than
4:45 p. m. down stream on either tha upper
or lower courses at the discretion of tho
referee. At tha meeting it was decided
that tha varsity raca should be rowed down
stream at 5:45. Yale and Harvard very
much regret the advisability of this change
from the original program, but have deemed
t absolutely necessary on account of the
orders which members of the crews have
received to report for military duty not
later than Friday night."
SUTTON THINKS
HIS NEW STROKE
WILL BEAT HOPPE
f
Veteran Cueist Now Be
lieves Hoppe Will Bow to
His Superior Game
TO PLAY IN ST. LOUIS
The peculiar persistency of Q. Butler Sut
ton, the voteran Chicago bllllardlst. In chal
lenging William F. Hoppe, of Now York, has
been rewarded. Hoppe's Indifferent attitude
toward the portly blond whoso whiskers
rival those worn by the ITepubllcan nomi
nee for President, Chnrlcs Evans Hughes,
and Senator James Hamilton Lewis, last
week suddenly turned to ono of admiration
and Sutton was granted tho match for which
ho has yearned many moons.
Now that ho has won his chance, after re
peated failures, what will he accomplish?
That Is the question devotees of balk-Una
billiards all over the country are asking
ono nnother. The averago fan does not
believe Sutton figures to win ngalnst Hoppe
at all, but deep down In tho veteran's henrt
he feels that, notwithstanding a row of de
feats at tho hands of tho champion of cham
pions, ho still Is his master, which ho hopes
to demonstrate at St. Louis lato next Octo
ber. Somo years ago when Sutton's big runs
and averages were the talk of cuedom,
George beat Willie In tho New York cham
pionship tournament won by Slosson. Sut
ton averaged 100 flat on that occasion, go
ing out In five Innings and snowing Hoppe
under. George never has been able to
understand from that day until this why ho
should not trounco Hoppo every time they
meet. Willie, on tho other hand, has grown
so accustomed to walloping George that he
treats his matched with the Chicago player
as a matter of course and for years the
result never has varied, Hoppe winning
consistently.
But, look out, William! George has an
other schema with which ho hopes to lower
your colors. This time It Is a different
Btroke from that ever used by him before.
He discovered It several months since and
gradually has Improved It so that by Octo
ber It will be a model of perfection.
According to Sutton, tho stroke Is solid, a
sort of combination of Ives' and Schaefers,
but better than either or both. It Is a
stroke all Sutton's own, nnd with it in
practice he has piled up almost Incredible
runs nnd averages. No wonder he Bought
to play Hoppe on a winner-take-all basis.
Why, he says he can hardly miss a shot
They will play 1500 points at 18,2 balk
line In blocks of 600 for three nights, the
winner taking down the entire stakes ot
11600 and the net receipts ot the match.
Charles Peterson, of St Louis, will officiate
as referee. It Is agreed by tha players
that a fortnight or so after the St. Louts
match they will meet at Chicago under
precisely the same conditions. The two
matches were the result of a compromise,
Hoppe naming St Louis, which he thought
the best drawing city, and Sutton holding
out for Chicago.
