tional League Leaders Slump
THE stupendous, colossal soul-satlsfylng, fascinating, hair-raising, stupefying; American
League sideshow, entitled "Who Is the boss batsman t or, can Trls tie Ty?" furnished
moro thrills than usual during the last week. That temperamental star, Cobb, knocked
them out of the scats by ousting Joo Jackson, who has persisted In occupying the centre of
the slngo whenever Trls was In the wings, from second placo and even threatened to
divert fhc spotlight from Speaker, the star performer. '
Cobb gained 21 points on Jackson and 1 points on Speaker during the week. Trls
dropped from ,305 to .391, while Tyrus jumped from .354 to .364, Jackson opened the
week' with an average of .367 and closed with .366. Incidentally these pill punlshers
arc three of the five regular players of Han Johnson's galaxy of stars who are In tho
elect .300 class. The other pair are Duma and Mullen.
Ilobertsbn, Wagner and Daubert, the three leading ash manipulators of the National
league, foil oft a bit In their hitting during the week, nobertson, tho leader, Is hitting
,344, while a week ago he was massaging the horsehtda for .365. Wagner dropped
from ,341 to .330, Undoubtedly some of our giant Intellects now will Insist that tho
anclent,.one Is going back and will soon bo condemned to an old man's home, Daubert
fell from .333 to .326.
Fiom n Philadelphia standpoint, the work of Whltted Is most encouraging. This
on of the Southland edged his way Into select circles by elevating his batting figures
from .288 to an even .300.
drover Cleveland Alexander, pitcher, present address Philadelphia, still Is occupy
ing tho pitching throne, with 17 gamei won and 6 lost. Mamaux, the brilliant young
Corsair, Is second, with 14 won and 6 lost. In tho American League, Cutlop Is first,
having won 9 nnd lost but 1, nnd Morton second, with 10 won hnd 2 lost.

BINNACLE' THE WATERLOO
fly SANDY McNIULICK
SHAWNnE-Q.V-DELAWAnE. Pa.. July
22. Ootf halls. Just like kldg ftt tho old
swImmltiK holo In tha summer ttm, thor
oughly enjoyed the cold plunges they were,
subjected to yesterday all through tho tour
nament here. Thoso thrtt didn't Kt a good
Btvlm on No. 1 had plenty of chanca on thrco
other carries over the creek on tho 2d, 4th
nnd IStli holes. Hut In case any of them
happened to miss the ere'ek. they had nlmost
a certnlnty In front of them at tha famous
"binnacle" holo, tho 16th which Is only a.
carry of 130 yards ovar a lake, but tho
waves licking at tho golfer's feet as ho cye.8
the fall on the driving tee seem to get tho
well-known Angora.
Shot after shot bussed with Joy as It
hummed In a sllco or pull, a top or may
hap Just a plain flub. Tha llttlo pills gave
a line exhibition of diving, back dives, n. la
sailor Jacknlfo or belly Hoppers, but tho
Annette Kellermans were cursed each and
every one In turn. It. J. Murray, In a
round, batted ciery ball he lind In his bag
In tho wafer. lie borrowed a couplo moro
nnd put them both In tho water.
"It you drive the water," he scowled to
his opponent, "I'll give you the hole."
Haider Wilson Defaults
His opponent emptied all hts balls on tho
tee and began the nssault. Ills llrst guns
were silenced In the dull splud of tho splash
ing water. His reserves silently wero
drowned In turn.
"That's all the balls I have," he said, sor
rowfully. So they halved the hole In 19s.
Director Wilson, raldsman-ln-chlef of tho
Quaker City, defaulted after ho had quali
fied for tho fifth sixteen. Ho and his whole
party defaulted. They played n four-ball
match and laid prodigious odds on their
respective ability to drive the creek at
tho first hole. It Is possibly 70 yarda nway.
John McAvoy. president of the Unla Oolf
Club, tnd a golfer of many parts, fixed his
cyo on tho pin, 3G0 yards away In the
Bhadow of the Utuo Mountains.' His ball
made light of tho situation nnd walked oft
whistling right for the creek nnd a morn
ing HWlm. Tho big raider then took an
Iron In his desire to clvo tho bluo sky
overhead a look at his ball, so that Wilson
was In tho creek nlsc C. J. Corr had
llttlo doubt of his ability, but a splash,
showed his ball untrue to him Tho other
went In, too, nnd two pnlra behind them
continued the game. It looked' Uko a
golf ball regatta.
"I'm going up there after tho bacon," ho
said. It was only about 100 yards off tho
lino. He won tho match on the previous
giecn after his opponent, T. II. Italton, hbd
him 4 down nt one time In tho match.
J. H. Oay, Jr., was thought to have tho
drop on W M. Weaver, Huntingdon Valley,
but tho best tho former Pcnn star could do
was to carry the match to tho 19trl holo.
Weaver got a four and tho match. Gay
put his ball In the creek, nnd after he had
dropped out laid his ball 18 feet from
the pin. Ills putt for n four hit the back
of the cup, but stayed out.
Gosh! What a Wizard
Shots were missed aplenty nt tho tournn
ment, but two that nevor missed a shot
wero Chief Operator Pearlman and his
assistant, Itanhofer, who kept tho wires
burning till midnight every day. Theso
two. unassisted, sent over moro than 150,000
words of description during the play. A
large corps of expert critics from New
York, Philadelphia and other districts wero
amazed at the speed displayed, and said
they had never seen such expert handling
of copy.
Pearlman Is one of tho most expert trans
lates in tho country, an can bo attested
after n look at somo Sanskrit hieroglyphics
ho was called on to read Into the code.

By GRANTLAND RICE
HAVE you ever noticed In your meander
Ings through tho broad land of swat
how few star ball players are ever hurf'or
out to nny extent? Hans Wagner at 40
played In 160 games, and Hans last season
nt 41 took part In 1B6 contests, not missing
a contest nil year.
Mathewson In 18 years nevor had n. sore
arm until hli final trouble came last sum
mer. Ho always was rendy.
Ty Colib nnd Trls Speaker nevsr have
been Injured to any extent. Both hare been
able to average over 140 games n year.
Walter Johnson hM been steadily on the
Job for his eight yenrs' service, and so has
Aloxandcr.
The ball player great enough to bo a
lending star seems to know also how to
protect himself.
Chick at Merion
Whether Chick Evans will land the ama
teur championship nt Merlon remains for
tho future to say.
Hut hero Is ono detail you can figure on
for the first tlmr. in tho East Chick will be'
tho lending favorlto among thoso trying to
pick tho winner.
In 1913, nt Garden City, Travers was an
easy favorlto and Travers won.
In 1013, at Kkwanok, Travers and
Oulmet wero rlvnl favorites and they
reached the final together.
In 1D1G, at Detroit, Travers. Oulmet and
Hvaiis wero bunched on oven terms. But
nt Merlon Chick will havo tho call above
tha field In the advance picking for the
first time In any amateur championship of
recent years. The fact that ho nt last has
smashed his way through will bo accepted
ns a big boost for his play.
To Meet Welsh
Wo havo In mind another fine system to
select the proper man to meet Kreddlo
Welsh, If Freddlo ever 'gets In that frame
of mind.
Here It Is talto Benny Leonard. Charley
White and Johnny Dundee and lock all thrco.
together in somo quiet cellar. About an hour
later unlock tho door" and permit the sole
nurvlvor to walk out and claim the right to
Jho main match.
This scheme ought to make a big hit with
boxing promoters, as thcro is a lot of sports
manship involved, with no gate receipts.
Mention has been made of the fact that
a golfer In Mlnlkahds. who holed a good
putt danced a Jig on tho green. Perhaps ho
laid tho ball dead with a jigger shot.

TILDEN TO PLAY
HAWK FOR TITLE
AT NORRISTOWN
Final Eound for Plymouth
Club Singles Laurels
Scheduled Today
NORRISTOWN, Pa., July 22. William
T. Tllden, 2d, holder pf the Schuylkllt Valley
tennis championship, and Dr. V. II. Hawk,
who held the title In 1914, earned the right
to meet each other In the final round for
the present championship at the Plymouth
Country Club today.
Tltden had a very easy tune In defeating
E. 1). Hosier, Overbrook, 6-1, 6-0. Mosler
furnished one of the upsets ot the tourna
ment when he defeated E.' C. Hall Thurs
day. In his match against Tllden the Over
brook representative was never dangerous,
as he was octremqly wild and drove Into the
net repeatedly.
The contest between Doctor Hawk and
Norman W. Swayne. riiTnouth. furnished a
striking contrast to the Tllden-Uosler match.
Doctor Hawk won In straight sets from last
year's runner-up in a match that consumed
much tlmo and effort, 6-t, C-3. Kach roan
played the easy, base-line game, aiming to
wear down his. opponent by well-planned
placements. Aa the contestants adopted the
same tactics, a long-drawn-out match re
sulted, and the number of times the ball
crossed and recrossed the net In the loos
.rallies was almost record breaking.
The semifinal round match In the doubles
between W. T, Tllden, 2d, and Roy Coflln,
the tltleholders, and Doctor Hawk and B. C
Hall gave the gallery sufficient thrills to
make up for those missing In the Hawk
Swayne contest. The tltleholders won their
way to the final round after a very close
call. Hawk and Hall had little trouble In
carrying off the first set. 6-3, and they were
well on their way to victory In the second
when their opponents braced and evn the
games at four all. Tllden and Coffin played
well up to the net and smashed away for
aces. The hard hitting was not confined to
one side ot the court, as Hall produced many
lusty .clouts that earned points. The team
work of Tllden and Coffin Improved, and
they were able to win the set, 7-5. The
third art began with a rush. The title
holders ran away with the first three games
and the match appeared to be oyer, when
Hawk and Hall uncorked a winning streak,
capturing a trio of games and squaring the
match. The spurt was spasmodic, however,
as Tllden Inaugurated a smashing campaign
that decided the set, 0-3, and o ended the
match.
