BILLIES' SHORTSTOP PUTS UP GREAT OFFENSIVE GAME, DISPLAYING JSODEJXEimM
WHEN YOU RETURN TO THE $Tt FROM THE VACATION I IS IT ANY WONDER JACK BARRY

t
Evers Missed in Braves' Line-up
IT MAY liave been the absence of Johnny Evers or it may not, nevertheless the
fact .remains that:a Boston Braves put up u very poor exhibition of pastlmlng
gainst the Brooklyn Dodgers, Tyler hurled a brand of ball that would be victori
ous nine times out of ten, letting his opponents down with six hits. But at that
Cheney had the better of the pitching argument, permitting only a trio of safe
cracks by fitallinga'a men.
Egan. who played second for the Braves In place of the Trojan, contributed a
costly error 10 the afternoon's proceedings and failed to produce anything that
resembled a base hit, htnee it Is reasonable to suppose that Evers'a absence did
have a demoralizing effect on the Individual as well as the team play,
Even always keeps life in his own club. That Is the essential that the Braves
lacked yesterday. The result was that the Phillies' doubt victory over the New
York. Giants put the champions within five points of second place.
Catcher Miller, of the Brooklyn club, continued his good work against the
Braves by cracking out a home run and a single.
Oavvy Cravath and Bill Klllefer crossed every one by getting Into the line-up
yesterday. If they are as successful In crossing the opposing pitchers In the future
the pennant race will be all over but the official returns by the middle of September,
BATTING FiiOM BOTH SIDES OF
THE PLATE, DAVE BANCROFT
PROVES A REAL 1916 PLAYER
Phillies' Short Fielder Gets a Double From Left
Side of the Pan and Two Hits From
the Right Against Giants
TtlRUE still remain a few of those who will not be persuaded. They bcllcvo
yot Jhnt tho, old Kchool of baseball Is as Rood ns the new. It may be true and
probably Is that such men as Dan Brouthcrn, Willie Keeler ct al. were Just ns Rreut
hitter aa are Ty Cobb, Trts Speaker, Joe Jackson nnd Jake Daubcrt. Hut it would
not take n parson of even more than mediocre mentality to rcallzo that the nmv
pamo Is far more highly developed than the old If they had been nt the Phillies'
park yesterday afternoon and hnd paid Htrlct attention t Davcy Bancroft, the
brilliant little Bhortfloldcr of the champions.
Bancroft Is of the 1916 typo of baseball player. Not only has ho born taught
modern methods by Pat Mornn, but ho has brains enough himself to realize that
every man who is In tho gnmo today, to mukc a success, must Icnrn to execute
on his own Initiative, regardless of tho greatness of Ills manager. With this end
In view, Bancroft, naturally a left-handed batter, decided thnt he would heroine
a right-hander when the occasion demanded It. Being n born ball player, it did
Hot take him a great while to become Just as much accustomed to hitting from
I the left side of tho plate as from the right. Tho results ycntcrdiiy showed how
far ndvanced ho Is In this art. Uo wont to the bat four times In tho llr.it gnmo
against Uube Benton, a left-handed Hurler, and hit tho bnll on thu nuno every
' tlmo up. Ills last smash went for a double.
Bancroft Switches With Good Effect
AFTER, having gotten away with a good day's work In tho first gnmo against a
xl port-slder, batting right-handed, Bancroft switched In tho second contest
nnd swatted from the southpaw angle against a pair of Giant right-handers
I Messrs. Anderson and Sell up p. Tho ox-Coast Leaguer cracked out a single nnd
I a double off these respected gentlemen from Harlem, thereby adding several to
i his string.
It has often been contended that a left-handed hitter should bat from tho
right side of tho plate, regardless of tho pitcher, for the reason that ho is not only
1 closer to first base In tho beglnnlrg, but has the ndvantnge of going In that dlrec
I tlon when ho swings and Is not pulling nwny Irom tho initial sack, ns n right
handed batter necessarily must dn.
This theory, however, although exemplified by u few great players, Is not
, adhered to by others. Ty Cobb always hits left handed. Therefore It might be
presumed that nny man who had played on the Fame club with Ty and watched
his continued success would nttempt to emulate hlm. But thnt Is not the case.
Donio Bush, the llttlo Tiger shortstop, bats right handed against left banders and
- left handed ngalnst right banders, nnd gots away with it In fine style.
Wnlly Schang, of tho Athletics, Is nnothcr example of tho nmbidoxtcrous slug-
fccr. Wnlly, though a left-handed hitter nnturnlly, f,ecniH to bo nblo to hit the ball
j just as hard and just as consistently right bunded as left handed. Wally, by tho
' way, Is the only man In tho history of major baseball who ever was known to get
homo runs hitting from both sides of tho plate. Wnlly accomplished this feat In
1913, the first year he joined Connie Mack's White Elephants.
Did the Giants Try to Pull an Old One Over?
IN THE fourth Inning of yesterdny's doublo header, Alexander singled against
tho right-field wall after Klllefer had filed to George Burns. Bender was on tho
third-base coaching line. The next batter, Dodo 1'askert, doubled to center, and
.Alex scored. But tho point Is should Alex have scored? I'askcrt's drive was not
'one on which tho runner could walk home by any means. He hnd to hurry. Not
only did he have to hurry, but ho had to slidu to prevent being tngged out by
Benny KaufTa long and nccurate toss to the plate.
Did the New York Club allow Alexander to make that effort to score, or did
Chief Bender pull a "bono" In telling him to score, when It was obvious that tho
effort might affect his pitching to such an extent that he would be bombarded
In the following inning?
No matter what the verdict may be, Alex went In tho box In tho next (the
flfth) Inning and made Robertson fly to Paskert and followed that by funning
Benny Knuff and Fred Mcrkle.
Nevertheless, the fact remains thnt some one on the Phillies' club did err.
Alex should never have been mado to score from first on that double.
JT" Connie Macl; onco remarked that when ha was with Pittsburgh they had often
won games by deliberately throwing tho ball to sonic forlorn portion of the lot
when a pitcher was on base Just to mnkc him run, and that the effort expended by
tho hurlcr had put him Into such a state of physical nnd mental exhaustion that
he was an easy mark for the batters from that tlmo on.
Notwithstanding nil these remarks, Alex pitched nnd played 'a brilliant game
and well deserved his twenty-second victory of the enson.
Philadelphia Tennis Players Should Start Something
THE high-grade entry list of lawn tennis players nt the invitation tournament
now In progress at Newport hns caused somewhat of a reaction regarding tho
location of tho natlonnl event for 1917. Those who always have supported the
Ilhode Island social center us the proper place for the annual classic believe that the
majority of players would rather play there than on the courts nt Forest Hills, L. I.
i Having become Imbued with tho belief. It is certain that a strenuous attempt
"Will be made next winter In behalf of Newport for reclaiming the national champion
' eh I pa which were nwarded to the West Side Tennis Club in 101G and 1016.
With the deflnlto knowledge that there will be a split-up at tho meeting nt
Which this question will bo decided, there is no reason why Philadelphia should not
make a bid. As long as the tournament always had been conducted at Newport,
local tennis peoplo were not inclined to brenk the precedent; but, now that It has
been broken, tho Quaker City should come In for its just deserts. No city in the
country has had more and better tennis players, consequently followers und per
formers who live here should be rewarded with a national tournament.
It Is true that tho women's national event la held In this city, but that does not
Iter the fact that tho men's events also should be pulled off here. Either the Merlon
Cricket Club, nt Haverford, or the Philadelphia Cricket Club, at St. Martin's. Is
thoroughly capable and aufllciently veil equipped to hold (he i lonal champion
ships. Some one should get busy.
Municipal Links Users Begrudge Tojrnnment Play
TOURNAMENT play at Cobb's Creek on Saturday afternoons has not met with a
whole lot of favor among the golfers who wish to play there nnd do not care to
Join the Cobb's Creek Golf Club. This is a club composed of a few of the players
v hid ii.uu.v.'.j'ti uuuim.-. ijic i-iuu nuiu mo urai tourney over mo puoilc links on
Saturday, and hag tf schedule of events which will lust all tho rest of the weekends
till nearly December. The players In tho tournaments are said to havo been given
Instructions not to interfere with other golfers outside tho tourney who wish to use
the course at the same time, but It appears to bo doubtful whether theso Instructions
were carried out to the letter In the first tournament.
Golfers not In the tournament did not feel the same freedom. In one case, at
least, two players shouted "Fore!" nnd drove off Into a pair ahead. When asked
the reason, they said they were In the tournament and "had a right to go through."
The entry list Saturday was exceedingly small, and that Is the only thing that
prevented trouble, since there seemingly Is real antagonism to the officials of the
new club, and hence to Its ambitions.
It Is difficult to run any kind of a successful tournament without unrestricted
use of tho course. It will be doubly difficult if the play la going to foster friction
between entrants and other golfers, both struggling for a place on the same course.

He never batted .300 In his life. Ho has

years. His present mark Ib under .220.
When the old Infield wns broken up he
brought tho cheapest price, selling for less
than half tho others.
And yet for all-around value for clean,

His head Is always up nnd his eyes arc

Another Point
Harry belongs with success. Ho belongs
to tho winning species of tho game.
There. nro now Just two ballplayers who
havo taken pait In five world series and
who havo their chance for slxtli shot at the
October kale.
Hoth are John J.'s. both mo second base

This may not be a coincidence, but what

World Series Returns
If the lied Sox finish first again tills
year, Harry's full return from his six world
series vcntuics will bo around $18,000, for
ho has been on four world series winners
out of five starts, showing that his suc
cess has not been limited to pennant play.
Ha Is one of tho most valunblo types
that a ball club can carry, and If ho were
only a consistent .300 hitter ha would bo
listed today as ono of tho greatest stars
of all time.
Ho deserves nil tho more credit for the
place ho has achieved with a .260 batting

Frankly, there may be steenteen factors contributing at
one time or another to " engine trouble." But it's always
a safe bet that the greatest oifender in the whole mili
taristic mob is Poor Lubrication. There's one sure way
to banish lubrication-troubles : Atlantic Motor Oils.
v -
Here arc oils that have done as much toward
banishing engine-trouble via better lubrication
as Atlantic Gasoline the accepted standard
lias toward increasing power, mileage and gen
eral car-happiness.
Atlantic Polnrine is commander of the crew of
four principal motor oils, being the correct
lubricant for B out of lOcars. In all alternative
cases, Atlantic "Light," Atlantic "Medium,"
or Atlantic "Heavy" is the ono to use. Ask
your garageman which.
In actual tests, it has been definitely demon
strated that a properly lubricated motor will
yield as much as five additional miles to tho
gallon of gasoline.
Use tho combination: Atlantic Gasoline for
fuel, Atlantic Motor Oils for lubrication.
The oldest and largest manufacturers of lubri
cating oils in the world recommend this com
bination to you without reservation. They
ought to know whereof they speak and
