AVc are llko a sprinter running n maru- thon. It can't bo dono. ""DUT don't think I am panning the club. Far be It from that. Thosn -' words of sorrow arc for myself nnd I need them. However, It mun bo remembered that Jimmy Callahan has a gang of kids working for him, and as soon as they get seasoned tho other clubs will havo to step some. Tho only vets aro In tho outfield and they aro too far away to bo of any value. The youthful Infield has a tendency to go up In the air at critical times and It puts on Its llttlo act In every game." The Pirates Just HAD to Lose That Game to the Phils 1IFE to tho Plrato clan these days is just one darn defeat after another. No 1 matter how good they look, thero always comes a time when tho balloon goes up and every ono climbs aboard. Yesterday an effort was made by tho Phils to help tho visitors along. No matter what ono may think of the homo-town boys. It cannot be said that they are not kind-hearted. Klg, generous Gavvy Cravntli showed his kind, sweet disposition In tho fourth Inning when ho dropped old Bill Hlnchman's liner nnd allowed Old Hill to rest his weai;y legs on first. Then Krk Mayer, In his usual open-hearted manner, lobbed a lovable bender right In tho roovo for Bunny Brief, and Bunny, with tears In his eyes, thanked Krk for his kindness with a wallop that almost ruined a bleacherlto In tho left field four-bit section. Krk also tried hard to lend his assistanco to the guests In tho third, Then he endeavored to throw tlio ball Into center field when Max Carey swiped second. But all of these efforts wero made In vain. Tho visitors wero too gentle to tako advantage of them. In tho meantime, a youngster labeled Grimes was hurling swell ball nnd tho local prides wero swinging llko tho old barn door on tho farm. In four frames only two mc.islyhlls wero registered and six of our heroes bit tho dust via tho vliiff-whlff route. But Mr. Grimes was not satisfied with that. Ho Insisted on adding a military touch to tho sceno and suddenly developed an acuto eyo which qualified him for highest honors In marksmanship. Beginning with tho fifth, every time he hurled tho ball ho rarely missed a bat, and oery time ho hit ono the ball bounced fur, fur ,away. Everybody In the Phils' line-up had a shot at tho accurate pegging, nnd when tho smoko cleared away Mr. Grimes had been carried off and tho high-salaried athletes working for Mr. Moran had chalked up four perfectly good tallies. AMU. MItiLEB, leeently plucked from tho forest primeval, supplanted the fallen Grimes, but ho, too, proved to bo a sharpshooter. Ho almost knocked the bats out of tho Phillies' hands and allowed but seven hits and four tallies In thrco and two-thirds innings. The Umpires Put in Another Busy Day and Use the Tinware AS WE havo mentioned many, many times In tho past, no player ever has won Xian argument with an umpire on the ball field. It can't bo done, nnd it's about time to get hep. Milton Stock perpetrated a terrlblo blunder In thoislxth ver.e When ho hurled his bat violently to the ground to express dlspleasuro at one of Qulgley's original versions of a strike. Now Mr. Qulglej' Is paid to do tho guess ing for both teams nnd he needs no assistanco. Our Milton should havo known that, but, as tho fellow says. It's never too lato to learn. Milt learned his lesson all right, but he selected the wrong time. Ho should havo mado a date with Qulg to meet him some morning and then get next to tho dope. Then ho could have been chased out of town If necessary and It would not have affected the ball game. But It was extremely bum headwork to get sore when there was no chance to get away with It. Bancroft was out of the line-up with an Invalid leg and a sub Was sitting In for him. That weakened the club to a certain extent, and Stock should have mado a heroic effort to 1 cumin with his playmates. On tho second strike he bounced his bat off tho ground nnd was spoken to by Mr. Qulgley. That Should havo been warning enough, for It showed that tho guesser wus soro and no further iough stulf would bo tolerated. But Milt's sunny disposition went under a cloud and when It emerged ho was on his way to tho exit. MANAGKIt PAT, who was canned Monday, also had a few words to say and : ushed to tho home pinto to Interview the umpire. There was only ono umpire thero, but It wasn't Pat's fault. He would havo Interviewed every ono on tlio National Keaguo staff If necessary, but he was handi capped by other assignments mado by Mr, Tener, However, Moran kept within tho law and said Just enough to keep himself In tho combat. Niehoff Pulls Sensational Play and Scores a Run THE greatest play oer put over on the home lot occurred In the seventh Inning, and It demonstrates to a certain extent why the Phils aro a good ball club. They never overlook an opportunity and work best while tho: enemy sleeps. In .the Inning referred to Nlohoff opened with a double to left. McGofllgan dumped n. BK "pit IP EL & hf. . L; .W sacrifice bunt down the first-base line nnd Fiazer, Miller and Blgbco tore after tt. T. Eraser was tho luckv cuv. Ho grabbed the ball and mado a pretty throw to Brief. retiring tho runner by a step. In tho meantime, Niehoff was tearing for third, but instead of stopping ho kept on to tho plate. Oscar Dugey, who nover misses a tt -..!. u ,,u thn tlilrii-li.iso coachlnir lino and noticed that tho homo nlato was as .jjr (barren as Port Indian, Pa,, on Sunday, Ho sent Niehoff homo and Bert arrled '"f ."before tho enemy Knew wnai nau uuppeneu. u. is seiuuin ui.ii. u. man scores ironi ''second on a sacriflco bunt nnd the play made Pittsburgh look qutto sad Indeed. But the rookie Infield again concentrated on one man and again It foozled. Another peculiar play occurred In tho first inning. Again the Pirates wero the victims, and It was because Balrd hit the ball too hard. Ho busted one of Mayer's Rrf lid r. i - JM'fast ones on tho nose and sent It on a lino to left field. Tho ball hit tho fence .i'rMwiiv, ni.i. fnrrn that It bounced back almost to third base and tho runner was iVjSk held on second. It was a perfect bank shot from the fence to Stock. Had Balrd rS ?.W f Vint bnll lust a trifle easier It would havo bounded Into tho bleachers for a $V B Jiome. run. But it Is hard to tell what to do unless you study tho dope first. I'l 'if' . m r.f .n ' MOVIE OF A MAN WITH A TIME TABLE THE Phils missed Bancroft yesterday, and the chances are they will miss him more than that beforo the season Is over. Davy sprang a charloy liorso nnd his leg Is so sore he can hardly walk on It. Ho waa troubled With that same ailment down South, nnd Trainer Mike Dee Is working hard to get him In shape for tho series with Chicago the latter part of the week. Dubuc Pitching Good Ball for Salt Lake EAN DUBUC, former star pitcher for the Detroit Tigers and one of the best hitting twlrlers in the big leagues during his stay, still Is able to drive out his '."Meties In tho pinches. A few days ago, working for Salt Lake City against San , '-.Francisco, the big Frenchman blanked the Seals for ten Innings and In Salt .f i Lake's half of the extra framo Dubuo scored Hannah, his battery mate, with a ng double. Dubuc's opponent In the mound duel was Rubo Oldham, a former team mate of Jean's when he was working for Jennings. Red McKee and Baker, -time members ot tne Tigers caicning man, taw oorvice lor oan rrancisco. o struck out she and Oldham seven. ex-Mackmen saw service In the encounter, Orr holding down shortstop ,t Lake and Pick playing third for the Seals. Orr had only two chances and them cleanly, while Pick took care of six out of seven chancps. Jennings's team still is weak In the pitching department, and with two of his s twirling such gllt-eage oaii in a jiubb a& league it snouiu cause Jiugney, painful moments. Dubuc, always erratic, walked only five men and Oldham d free transportation to three. , Three-Fingered Brown Going Strong in Minors LLECTIONS of the old Cub machine, suggested by tho presence here with Pirates of Frank Schulte, offer the further reflection that the once great Brown Is still some pitcher, although no longer in the big show. The red marvel is going strong In the American Association with Columbus, his last appearance In the box allowed Milwaukee but one run, thus helping is, Joe Tinker, to make a .clean sweep of the series, an Association scribes declare tnai me oia reiiow is aisning out a prime et "noodle" hurling. The strike-out column never Is breaking into two It seems, but while the hit column sometimes Is, the run column generally Wtiloh always helps some In the general decision. It is merely a repetition thai relates to the, ability of .truly great huriers to hang on many ft-am'tMMf.Hiif wr, studying in natters ana wojiung tne K'? n CONSULTS TimC TBie " rVROfviLLG- "Pururifwiue "OH HfiRe'TtS- (LOOKS FOR in.(?V tOR IMPORTATION COM- WMSRe'S PUR - LEAVE GRAND """"" l"f,0,'l CONCaRNINO CeRMiMG TRiMMvS GOlrMG CENTifAL 0).4l. z """""Si.

Basketball, soccer, football, bowling, etc.. have their own quota of followers, but It Is to tlu national pastime that tho work Ingmen devote the greatest attention. The Industrial na-cball League Is now In Its nfth rainpalgn, which, by the way, prom ises to be the most notewotlhy In its his tory This year there wero so many ap plicants seeking franchises that a slxteen rlub circuit of two divisions, eight clubs In each section, wan organized. liven with such a big circuit, nil thoso applying for admission could not be sup plied, and tlio left-overs havo slneo been do slious of playing In a leaguo As a result of tho efforts of a number of Interested Indus trial fans, a new Industrial venturo is about to bo launched. Tho circuit will be composed of cither eight or ten teams, Seven franchises havo alieady been accepted Among tlieso are John T. I.evler & Sons. Baxter, Kelly & Faust, C'olllngswood Mills and Joseph I-'or-stcr & Sons. The other three aro withheld at this time. A meeting will be held this week, and nny Industrial establishment seeking to enter should get In touch with Thomas Scott, CIO Hast Thayer street, or phono Kensington 2897 J for further Infor mation. Tho opening games aro expected to be played two weeks from Saturday. Up to date the war has had little.

As a lcsult this contest has been scratched off tho program. Jack Ilratton, tho California featherweight, who proved himself a teultlc puncher in a bout with Jack Uoylo Monday night, may appear in tho flnalo against a worthy op ponent. Patsy llroderlek and Kddlo O'Keefe also will bu absent among participating boxers. Brodcrlck was paired off with Jimmy McCabo and O'Keefo was to hao met Bobby Reynolds, so tlio matchmaker has bracketed McCnbp and Reynolds for the sixth number. Seernl times efforts wero mado to bring Reynolds nnd McCabo to gether, and tho mix should prove nn in teresting one. Followers of both are mani festing much Interest In tho Reynolds-Mc-Cubo match, and many wagers havo been mado on tho result. Another star bout will bo put on. Harry Dougherty will mako his return appearance hi tho ring after a forced re tirement because of poor eyesight, when ho encounters Freddy Oooilman. "Skoodles" Is expected to substitute for Jimmy Green ngalnst 'Frisco Legs, and, whllo It may result In a comedy conflict,, they will de cide tho winner on their merits.
