) EVtiNUSQ ItJDGER-l'SlLADELHIA; THUKSDAY, JULY 27, 1916. r Of MiR f If ERAN BALL PLAYERS SLOW DOWN, BUT WAGNEK SEEMS TO iMPfeOVfi WITH AGE . Tm y N HANS WAGNER HAS NEW LEASE OF. LIFE; P LAYERS DECLARE HE IS BETTER THAN IN 1911 isr JPittsmircrh Veteran. Who Is Close to -a-. M J J -. i i leaders in B&tting, Thrills Large Crowd With Sensational Work Afield tfdfUS WAGNEn Is Just as g"ood as tie was when I broke into ths Icnguo AXl,:6oUiSve, years ago." This remark was made by a Phllly player yesier Mf ndt ottieY feyera agreed With him "The birf German is nfot so fast aa ho Trf d few years agw, bui h Is still able ttf get around much faster than tho fans niirh1e,F continued the Phllly star. "Wagner's ungainly build and awkward errse are' deceiving, and he Is much faster, even now, than tho fans believe. M is I m wis that he can accomplish more without moving about as h) did ffye yars ago than the' Average recruit whor Is" fast and flashy. I wish I thought that 1 would bfrUbkv to-play the bal ho Is playing after i have been in tho leaguo , twerit yearfc He la the daddy of them all." This expresses the" sentiment of almost every one' of tho 10,000 spectators Wtia saw th f'hlllles cplif oven In o. double-header with Pittsburgh yesterday, fager played wonderful ball in both games, and tho fans cheered the grand old Teteran every tlmo ho Came to bat or mado a play In tho flofii. And ho made at least- half a dozen: ptayrf that foW shortstops In tho gamo today could have ipricat&l. Mythd that Wagner Is as- good a ho was five years ago may bo stretching f $ojnt i trifle, when ono cdnslders" that It was only Ave years ago that Wagner SttfAed supremo in1 the National League and led tho battors with monotonous feiruiarity; but tho Pirate star Is surely much better than ho was in 1914 and 1916. Five years ago (1911, tobe exact)', Wognor finished the season as the Na- nat 58,Kuo' battl'' Iea"dcr with a percentage of .334, which was Just ono point above "l'oc' Sillier, then -with Boston but two years later a member of the TOIftlcs. In that season Wagner scored S1 runs, made IBS hits, for a total of 210 bases, stblcr 20 bases", and Included 23 doubles, 16 triples and 9 homo runs among hlsHotal of safeties'. Altogether it was a wonderful season, and Wagner's work "Was all thd more romarkabio becauso ho then was .rounding out his fifteenth eas6n' aa1 a major league player, Wagner Carrying Whole Infield TODAY Wagner is playing his twentieth season In the National Leaguo and Is playing; bettor ball than ho has In any year since 1911, and perhaps he is really greater yaluo at tho present tlmo because ho Is playing with a team not nearly o strong as Clarke's I9lr combination. Wagner Is burdened with greater re sponsibility at tho present time, as ho is the only dependable Inflotder on Calla han's payrolt and Is doing" tho thinking1 for tho whole Infield. Wagner is batting for the unusual average of .332 at tho prosont tlmo. He luuf ptayed 7fl games, in which ho has been to bat 29G times, mado 98 hits, scored SS run's and has Btolen & jiases. This is surely a wonderful record. He is closo tptho leaders In the National League In batting, and if ho keeps going at his present clip' may again finish on top, ris he is gaining steadily. Yesterday Wagner convinced the large crowd that ho is still a wonderful Selder, and several of his" sensational plays killed rallies which might have resulted to enough runs to have given the Phillies a doublo victory. Hla stop on Cooper fa tho sixth Inning deprived thd Phillies of nf least ono run, as Paskert followed irfth & home-run drive Into tho left Held bleachers. A Wonderful Catch StoDDcd n Phillv Tlnllv A Tf A TrlT In t. -.a. luf . w Z oovuuia inning n was paUOTW COlCn Or WhlltOU'S fly ClOSO SootX had opened tho- fanlng with a slnglo and Whltted followed with what ap. Jrarcntty was a double to" left, Farmer, who played left Held for the Pirates In thd second" gamo, was playfng deep left-conter for Whltted when ho lofted a fly rully 35 yards back of third. It looked like a sure double and a couplo of runs fer, the champions, but Wagner pulled tho ball down after a hard sprint. Just a ho- caught tho ball the big Teuton collided with Balrd. Both men fell heavily WtBe eartfy but Wagner held tho ball. The next two batters wont out on easy chances and the rally -was killed. In the first game Wagner mado threo sensational plays, tho most noteworthy cSInff' at tho expense of Bancroft In tho fourth Inning. It resulted In a doublo tay and prevented at least ono run. With Whltted on first. Bancroft hit a fast fcrounder over second. Wagner got over tho ground in an amnzlng manner, eooped up the ball, touched second and mado a lightning throw to Johnston , .ajAwnlcJi, Just beat the runner. .vw6Di.,Bi rB'ier Jinu a grcai aay ana appears- to be young enough at 42 Jeartf of ago to outfast many of tho presont-day stars, and It Is reasonably cer--ln that he will be et regular after his only rival, Napoleon Lajole, has retired from the game. Sensational Pitching Features Major League Games SENSATIONAL pitching featured tho major league games yesterday. Alexander .pitched his near-record game here In the flrsf contest of the double-header with the Pirates; Eddie Cfcofte. of the White Sox, blanked tho Yankees with ono hit mid permitted only two men to reach first base; Jim Vaughn held the-firaves hltless i r seven; Innings and fo twb hits in nine, but lost becauso Nick Allen held tho (Cubs' to two hits and did not permit a tally. The western teams of the American ash with tho East, winning four of the five games played, Boston being the only stem team to wfn. The Red Sox victory nut cirrleran'a team one-half cams cK of the Yankees and It seems certain (rWoro tho trip Is completed, providing Chicago does not pull an unexpected winning ireaK. In the Natrdnaf league the Braves Dodgers by winning from the Cubs, while Brooklyn divided a doublo bill with tho Cardinals. A victory for the Phillies In the ftecond game would have enabled the champions to cut down the lead, but Miller's etching- was such that he probahly would have beaten any team yesterday. Schmidt and Burns Pulled Clever Plays SCiartDT, Pittsburgh's young catcher, tried a trick made famous by Johnny Kilns it, the fifth inning of the first game, and ailed only becauso Wagner Mid Parmer -were- not looking for it. Good was on second and Whltted on first VhoS the'- double steal sign was flashed. Good got off to a flying start and there was' no chance to get him, but Schmidt noticed that Whltted was taking his time going- to second so he whipped the bait to that bag. The throw was good, but Wagner -was off his balance and missed Whltted, It was a clever play and Catchers could get away with' it often, as the second mart on a double steal in variably loafs, believing- that the catcher -will' try to head off the man going to third. Another clever bit of catching science war pulled by Burns in tho second fame when he bdeked up first and retrieved NIehdff's wild throw in time to catch chultz going to second. When Schulta saw Nlehoffs throw sail over LuderuVa Jtead ha did not stop at first but dashed for second. He wad amazed when he m1 Bancroft fake5 Burns'rf throw, as catchers of the present day seldom back Wp first, though they should. Athletics Will Screen Bleachers 'Ijyrmc.ER had Paskert. pulling badly on his first two trips to the plate by fced JJL Isaf Mnt curved Bails1,, but an hla thfrd time up Paskert was laying for the urve, He- drove tho batt Into. tha left field bleachers for a home run. The 3Hratea ijjcotested that a bjeacherite had reached out and caught the ball,--but 7qpIrW"Klem decided It was a legitimate circuit smash. It was the Pittsburgh, .chit that requested the National League fo order a 6m-foot screen placed above the bleacher wall, but the' league decided that Presl tfnt,.Bker could suit himself about It. No doubt the" fans w(ll ber surprised to jaa.rn that the Athletics have decided to put a 25-foot screen In front at the fcaVwicherS next seasoy, despite the fact that the1 wall Is a greater distance from tt Jfe? than that at the Fhlliy park.

Norrls Williams, 2d, Philadelphia's hopo for tho national lawn tennis title, at tho hands of Clarence James Orimn, alias "Peck," may mean cither that Williams Is not the Invincible, irrcslstlblo Williams of old or that ho Is talcing his tlmo In do eloping his gamo to Its height. Probably tho latter. Last year Williams began the season, after returning from tho Exposition matches Rt San Francisco, like a whirlwind. He went through the classic Longwood tourna ment lllto a steam roller, only to succumb to Jlaurlco McLotighlln In tho challengo round on a day that was utterly unfit for tennis, and on a damp, soggy court. Two weeks later his game rerfched tho very pinnacle nnd ha defeated McLoughlln easily In thb Nowport final. From this point on his same began to go back, and when Will iam Johnston staged his brilliant and well sustained rush In tho semifinal nt Forest Hills, Williams could not head him off. This year Williams Is Bhaptng his gamo for tho championship, and nothing clso, ficsplte a defeat or two prior to that event, his success at Forest Hills will give him nr3t place among tho country s tennis stars, Juat as Johnston's victory over McLoughlln gavo him tho top-notch position In tho 1915 rankings Tho" East on paper does not show up very strongly against tho West for the In teractional battle at Forest Hills August 4 and S. This Is bo In spite of the fact that McLoughlln will not bo on hand to lead tho Invaders. Tho visiting team will bo selected from William M. Johnston, na tional champion : Clarence J, GrlRln, holder with Johnston of the national doubles title; Willis E. Davis, national clay court cham pion; Itoland Roberts, Ward Dawson, H. V. D. Johns and E. R. McCormlcft. The Easterners will be led by It, Norrls Will iams 2d, and the other players will bo so- locted from O. M. Church, T. R. Pell, Karl Behr, Watson M. Washburn, F. B. Alex ander and W J. Clothier. It Is likely that Church and Williams will form tho doubles team to play Johnston and Grlffln. Dean Mathey, Church's regular doubles partner, Is learning to be a soldier at Plattsburg. The western team presents a solid front that tho Easterners will find It hard to bat ter down. No fewer than three national champions are listed among the Invaders. In addition to the two Japs and Mc Loughlln, another tennis player well known nationally has his name generally pro nounced Incorrectly. This Is Mathey, which is pronounced "Matty," exactly as the nick name for Mathawion.

MOVIES ANOTHER SOMEBODY IS ALWAYS TAKING THE JOY OUT MORDECAI BROWN ANOTHER ONE OF THE OLD-TIME STARS WHO PERSISTS IN STICKING AROUND Former Three-Fingered Marvel, Matty;s Leading Rival, After Visit to Minors and Feds, Again Returns to Cubs By GRANTLAND RICE On the Bench Side bu rtde on tha bench, The Itooklc and Veteran sat; Spinnlna the Old Dope out, Talking of tMs or that; But each tvith a yearning eye Looked where a vision spread; And probing the soul of each These aro the dreams I read1 The Rookie dreamed of the blare That rose from the Fields of Fame; And tho clamor of frenzied mobs, Farlung at tho old star's name; Of a record that met tho test, And echoed a city's cheers, Of the glory the Veteran fcneto In tho laureled drift of the years.

TVo recall watch ing a Bitmo In Chicago several years ago where tho Three-Fingered entry worked against the Giants and wrenched his knee cap so badly that he was forced out for a long spell. That Injury was supposed to be the end of Brown's career. Matty's leading rival from tho old days was labeled a tradition. They first sent Mm to Louisville. Then the Itetls tried him again. Then ha took up a Job managing -the St. Louis Teds. Then Brownie came back to tho Chicago Feds. He was merely drifting" around. But here, late In the summer of 1916, ho Is still back at the old stand, Indulging In a favorite occupation, viz , beating the- Giants. Brown deserves a higher ranking upon the halls or walls of pitching fame than he ever has received. He wqs one of the best that over threw a ball and he Is still on the Job.

OF LIFE MARSTON PLAYS MINIGHT T0I)AY AT MANCHESTER Baltusrol Entry Is Gold Medal Winner in Ek- wanok Golf 0 EDDY FINISHES SECOND MANCHESTER, Vt.. July 27. A field of 112 started In tho seventeenth annual golf tournament for tho First President's cup fit the Ekwanok Country Club yesterday, and Maxwell It. Marston, of. Baltusrol, with a steady and consistent round In 77, won tho gold medal for low score In the qualify Inir round at medal play. Tho courso Is easily two strokes harder than It -was when Marston won tho tour nament a year ago. It was ovidpnfly duo moro to tho changes at the first, second nnd eighth holes than to the drizzle of rain which fell most of tho day that tho Scor ing ran a Httlo higher than last year. At tho first hole, where fours were formerly tho rule, and nt the eighth, where up to Monday of this week fours often gave way to throes, fives and sixes prevailed. Marston took threo fives In succession at tho start and finished with a flvo and a six. Otherwise his play was of a high cored C. P. Eddy, who finished In second place, failed to tako advantage of tho short holes going out and showed a total of 42 for nine holes. Ho played tho last nine In two strokes abovo par, however, nnd finished with a card of 79. There was a tie at 00 nmong six players to fill five places In the first division. Some of those who created surprise by failing to qualify were W. II. Gardner, of Buffalo, who was runner-up at unawnee last week; Ralph c.
