Wrestling Some Sport?
Wrestling Is a Brent sport, according to
the hlgh-prlccd press agents who are now
boosting tho game In the West. It Is said
to bo qulto exciting and the 1. A.'s point
with glee to the large crowd? that nttend
the so-called elimination matchcH. Perhaps
tho stuff Is true, but to our mind, wrestling
Is JUBt as exciting ns sitting on tho end of
a plor trying to catch flih when they refuse
to bite.
As an example, tako the Stctcher-Lewls
bout In Omaha last Tuesday. These ath
letes grappled with etch other for flvo hours
to a draw and at the end tho spectators
were so excited that they nhowered the
contestants with cushions, bottles and
everything else they could get their hands
on. Then, right on the heels of thK ci'nos

PERCY HAUGHT0N
AND ASSOCIATES
MAY SELL BRAVE
Rumored in Baseball Circles
That Financial Burden
Is Too Heavy
NOTHING DEFINITE KNOWN
NEW YORK, July 6. Joe Villa In tho
Evening Sun says today: "Among baseball
men tho report Is circulated that Percy l
Haughton and his partners will sell tho
Boston Braves nt tho end of tho sensor
It Is understood thnt tho Braved are losing
money and that the only chance to break
even financially lies In the capturo of the
pennant and the subsequent melon-cutting
In tho world's serle3.
"Haughton and his associates, who pur
chased the Braves from James E. Gnffney
last winter, havo dlscoerod, it Is reported,
that the burden Is entirely too heavy. Hut,
of course, this Is morely hearsay nnd there
may bo no basis for tho provulent rumoiu.
"it Is a fact. howeer, that the Braves
have not enjoyed the looked-for patronage
at home, ltaln. knocked the club out of two
holidays and other dates that would have
been a source of much profit. Tho club's
expenses are unusually great, duo to tho
rent of tho big Held In Boston nnd tho
salaries of the players. Tho gossips who
are busy telling this story cecm to thinlc
that If Haughton and company decide to get
out of baseball, the Braves will revert to
Gaffney."
In this connection It Is Interesting to
note thnt the npponded appeared In the
Evenino I.edobr Jnnunry 10, 1016:
"In buying the Braves, Percy Haugh
ton's syndicate purchasod a rattling good
ball team, but one that Is not worth any
where near J570.000. Tho new owners will
be under a terrific expense In renting the
wonderful new park owned by James Gaff
nay, nnd not Included In the sale. If Haugh
ton were to sell all his plujers hi could)
not possibly get more than $-'00,000. That
leaves $370,000 as tho prlco of the franchise,
and who would pay that without tho play
ro? "It Is no sura thing that tho Braves will
not go to pieces as other great teams have.
Its salary list Is enormous; the expense of
operating the team still greater, and with
out a pennant winner and good weather on
Saturdays and holidays Haughton and his
associates are likely to bo years and years
before, they are even with the game. Gaff
uey bought the franchise a couple of years
ago for $187,000, so It Is easy to Bee that
he made no mistake in selling."

Mornn'a Price Prohibitive
Frank Moran docs not seem worried over
his sad meeting with .lack Dillon In Brook
lyn last week. Despite tho walloping ho
received from tho smaller man, tho big
blond i" convinced that It was n mistake
nnd wnnts n chance to provo It. In tho
meantime. howeer, Francis Charles Is seek
ing the coin of the realm, but keeps his
price Just an high as It was before his
latest roverse.
Frank wns ottered a match with Cart
Morris In Tulsa. Okla., on July 28 with a
(10,000 guarantee. Instead of snapping It
up to provo that he still Is good enough to
battlo for tho championship Moran wired
back that tho purso was too Binall to bo
considered and naked that the ante be raised
to $16,000. Tho chances arc that Francis
Chnrles will lose both the match nnd tho
$10,000, for tho Western promoters are wlso
birds nnd know "that his drawing power Is
not so great as It was before the Dillon
scrup
If Moran wnnts to get back Into tho good
graces of the public ho Is tnklng tho wrong
course. Tho only thing for him to do Is
to light his way back Instead of putting a

FIRST HORSE TO
HOLD MILE MARK
Established Record of 1 m.
39 3-5 s. in 1877 Grad
ually Been Reduced
Trom the American RaclnR Manual.
Far back in 18i7, at Louisville, Ten
Urocele electrified racing enthusiasts by
running a mile in the then unprecedented
time of 1 : 39 9.i. This record Btood until Ra
cine reduced it to 1:3914 at Washington
Park In 1890. This was equaled at Morris
Park by La Tosca In 1891, and at the same
track Chorister ran a mile In 1:39 i In 1893.
It was not until 1891 that a mile was
run In better than 1:39, Libertine scoring
lu 1:JS at Harlem, October 24 of that
year. It thus requiring IT years to reduce
tho Ten Broeck record to the full extent
of a second. Prevfously In that same year,
1894, a mile had for tho first time In this
country been run In 1:39. This was when
George Forbes" speedy old selling plater,
Arab, covered a mile In that time at Morris
Park, June 1, and Ducat equaled It at
Sheepshead Hay on August 28.
The Libertine record held good until 1900,
when Voter ran a mile In 1:38 at Brighton
Beach and Orlmar did the same at Wash
ington Park. In 1901 Brigadier became the
record-holder by running a mile at Sheeps
head Bay In 1 :37 4-5, and held that distinc
tion until Alan-a-Dale cut the time to
1:37 3-5 at Washington Park, July 1, 1903.
Alan-a-Dale's supremacy was short lived,
lasting until August 14 of the same year,
when Dick Welles established the faster
record of 1:37 2-5 at Harlem.
Time Equaled Twice
This lime was tied by Klamesha at Bel
mont Park October 9. 1905. It was not
again equaled until August 15, 1908, when
Fern L., carrying the light burden of 80
pounds, ran In the same time at Seattle.
From the lime horses began to run over
the new Santa Anita track It was obvious
that It was such a phenomenally fast course
that in time It must inevitably hold many
of the records. It acquired the mile record
December 22. 1908, when Centre Shot, with
105 pounds in the saddle, set a new record
of 1:37 1-5. In Its short existence 1:38 was
surpassed 15 times on the Santa Anita
track.
Fast ns the Santa Anita track was. it
had a faster successor In the Juarez course.
On, December 12, 1913, such an ordinary
racer as tho four-year-old Ally Manasseh
ran a mile over It In 1:37 1-5, thereby
equaling the long standing record of Centre
Shot.
A little later on December 23, to be
exact Vestcr Illghts, a 3-yeor-oId, with an
impost of 105 pounds, also equaled Centre
Shot's record, Then, at the same track, on
January 18, 1914, Bonne Chance made u
new American mile record of 1:37, with 9S
pounds up. This record was surpassed on
March 6. 1914, when the 3-year-old filly
Chrlatophlne ran the distance in 1:35 4-5
oyer the same course, with an Impost of 103
pounds.
On September 3, 1914, however, the
Juarez track lost the distinction of holding
tho American mile record when It. T. Wil
son's 6-year-old gelding Amalll ran the
distance In 1:30 U n winning a raoa over
the New York State Fair track ot Syracuse.
American Record
The fact that the Syracuse course waa
also used for trotting races, and therefore
had a harder surface thaq the tracks de
voted exclusively to thoroughbred racing-,
was a factor In Amaltl's wonderful perform
ance, which now stands as (he American
record.
Stromboll ran the rolla at Belmont Park
on September 7, 1814, In 1 J 3-5. with 115
pounds up. and Sam Jackson covered tt
distance a year ago in I 88 4-5 under 113
pounds.

TY COBB WILL
PLAY AGAINST
MACKMEN TODAY
"Georgia Peach" Has Served
Three-Day Suspension
and Paid Fine
TIGERS AFTER CLEAN-UP
By CHANDLER D. RICHTER
Tyrus Cobb will be with us today. Tho
famous Detroit outfielder, who threatens to
retire from the gamo becauso the bleachcr
Ites have been abusing him, Is eligible to
play again after being Idle for threo days,
owing to a suspension handed out by Presi
dent Johnson for the recont bat-throwing
incident.
When Ty was called out on strikes In tho
final game of tho scries between the Tigers
nnd White Sox, he became peeved and hurled
his bat Into the stand. Tins bit of peevish
ness cost him J26 and tho team his services
for threo days. Tho fine was of little con
sequence, but Cobb's absence from the game
weakened tho Tigers greatly for the series
with Cleveland.
With Cobb back in the game the Tigers
hope to make n clean sweep of the series
with tho Mackmen. Manager Jennings be
lieves that the Yankees will be lucky to
get an even break In New York und that
the Tigers will bo able to cut down the
large lead of Donovan's team.
I'laying Poorly
The Tigers have been playing poor ball
for two weeks and are now In sixth place
with a percentage Just below the .500 mark.
When Jennings' slugging aggregation
climbed up almost on even terms with the
leaders two weeks ago. It was generally be
lieved that they would remain right up
with the leaders for the remainder of tho
season, but the unexpected reverses at the
hands of .the Browns and White Sox
started tho Tigers on tho downward path
and they did not stop skidding until they
hit sixth place.
As Manager Mack plans to Bend nimer
Myers, his youthful star, against the Tigers
this nfternoon. it Is likely that Jennings
will pick Harry Coveleskle to oppose tho
Mackmen. Jennings does not anticipate
any trouble with the rest of the Mack liurl
ers, but Is Just a trifle uneasy about the
result of the game Myers works against his
team.
Myers Works Well
Myers has been pitching brilliant ball
under most discouraging circumstances.
Game after game has been booted away
for the youngster after he had pitched well
enough to have won with even fair support.
With the. Athletics In a crippled condition
and erratic youngstets playing In the infield,
the Tigers should have little trouble sweep
ing the series If they succeed in defeating
Myera today.
"Stuffy" Mclnnts will remain out of the
game for a week, according to Manager
Mack. The brilliant first baseman has
been greatly handicapped by his "Charley
horse" and Mack has decided that rest la
the only cure. Mclnnls Is glad to rest, as
he believes he will start hitting as soon as
he returns to the game.
Manager Jennings and some of his men
stopped off at WellsUlIe, N. V., to play an
exhibition game yesterday and the re
mainder of the squad came right through to
Philadelphia. Pitcher Dauss, who is suf
ferlng from a lame arm, has gone to
Youngstown to consult "Boncsetter" Reese
and will not be of much use on the present
eastern trip.
Jennings has been reducing his squad and
has sent Pitcher Boehler to Louisville.
Erlckson left last night for San Francisco,
where he will play in the Coast League,
and Second Baseman Watt, formerly of Co.
lurobla College, has been ordered to report
to the Newport News, Va.. club.
Gallagher and Jamison Again
Because of unforeseen clrcumstsnces, Jack
Dlsckburn informed Promoter Taylor, of tits
Uroauway Club, this mornlnx that be would bo
unable to meet Harry Uaker next Monday night.
In the stead 0( this contest a return tilt be
tween Mickey Gallagher and Tommy Jamison
will bo bcld Qallasner Is credited with to
only knockout ever scored over Jamison, and
the latter bas been after Taylor for soma time
to llvo blm a chance to wipe out this blot.

THn grand cnrnUnt today for tho club
team clinmplonnlilp of the Golf Associa
tion of Philadelphia, when 40 of the most
olect rfolfcrs In the city are grappling, will
probably be tho Inst big test of the golf
Philadelphia fans hiay expect from the local
defenders when tho national championship
como3 to Merlon on September 2.
The only other event on tho regular sched
ule of the local association, beforo the na
tional eent, that Is nt all likely to bring
out the very grand hlgh-notclicrs Is tho
"class tournament" which will be held next
week nt St, David's. It Is not likely that
there will bo a very largo entry then of
thoso eligible to play for tho United States
tltlo, at St. Davld'n, first for tho reason
that theso are vacation times, when many
golfcrn aro only waiting for tho team cham
pionship to bo settled beforo they hie forth
to vent their prowess on tho links of sea
shoro nnd mountain.
Can See Who's Who
Also thcro prevails the unfortunate Im
pression thnt the tourney Is mostly for the
"largo hnndlcappcrs "
The match play today and tomorrow
will be a splendid test of tho locals' ability,
and will glvo an excellent lino on what may
bo expected of them when tho horde of
famous Btars nrrlvo In September.
SI. Wellington Wood, who won tho medal
at Wllmlngtonwlth a 70-78, has Joined tho
public links at 'Cobb's Creel: and plays there
at every opportunity.
Ho eays tho course Is ono of the best ho
has ever played on.
It I chard Mott, who Is ono of the oldest
golfers In town ellglblo to piny In tho na
tional, Is a Bplendld cxamplo of what golf
will do to maintain tho vigor of tho human
race.
Ho was ono of tho first In the morning to
turn out for a long session In the heat of
the glorious Fourth, nnd started oft at a 72-hole-a-day
clip.
Great Golfers Can't Write; Vice Versa
That's about tho only comfort we tako
out of the net results of a holiday session
on the links.
Tho trees shivered and even the crowa
overhead trilled sweet muslo In applause
as three scribes and Mr. Mcls'lbllck strodo
to tho "drlnlc holo" nt Aronlmlnk, disguised
ns golfers with brassies shouldered.
The partner had Just wiped clean tho
slate of n bitter match with u stroke that
was n mastcrplcco of strategy and bravery.
His ball was creeked on the 17th Island
hole. We needed that hole.
"My niblick, boy," ho said simply to his
caddy, as ho waded In the mud and water.
Followed a mighty concussion. Creek
bed nnd water enscaded over alt present
but tho ball staggered to the pin. The
enemy wns aghast and the holo was easy
pickings.
The enemy wabbled pitifully on the. home
hole. Its captain topped to tho alfalfa.
Ills partnor, touted as a crack member of
Bala's team, nosed his drlvo at right face
to tho first hole fairway. But their op
ponents wero aroused.
The partner removed a mud patty, tho
result of his heroics In the creek, from

Weirdest Chapter of 18th nislory
Somewhoro to tho valley on tho right
was heard tho Bala giant assaulting the
hilts and uttering strango cries. Finally
his ball sailed out swallow-ltke. It took the
clapboards of tho barn with a hollow thud
and bounced back. Tho partner laid his
ball hole-high and wo bowed over our ball
to hold the pace. But a 20-year-old heir
loom Iron parted at the shot. Tho club
head flow further than tho ball. The shaft
was so old It had decayed In tho oors.
(Alibi for tho shot). Wo took tho green In
3, Just like that, and the fight was at Its
climax. Tho enemy from Bala was sty
mied by the barn, CO feet high nnd 40 wide.
To provo how good all tho golfers -were,
ho pitched his ball over all that storage
room, trees, and so forth, to the centra of
the gallery circled about tho green. It
was 70 yards, but his ball was dead to tha
hole. Ho took tho credit of having played
tho holo In tho most unique way of lta
wholo history.
We let htm have credit, since ho took 7.
His partner, after topping his drlvo, was
on In 3 and down In 6. Tho partner took a
C Instead of a 4 and It was suddenly up
to us to sink ono of those 12. footers. Our
very wishbones quivered as wo took that
stunce. Tho lino waa all right.
Now we know tho heart throbs of a
bitter match. Did the putt go down7 Aslt
Dad. Ho knows.
