AUTOCAR APPEARS
PENNANT WINNER
Would Have to Drop Three
Out of Four to Lose
Main Line Flag
SCOUT AFTER STARS
t nlesi tho unforeseen occurs, Autocar
will be crowned champion of the first serlei
In tho Main I.lne Baseball League, which
has as Its other members Wayne, lion Air.
Dun & Co., Paoll, Karberth, Berwyn nnd
Gulp), Mills.
True It Is that Autocar Is out In front
by only the slight margin of a single game
but of the remaining quartet of battles
booked to bo played three are with second
division opponents. Autocar's schedule for
the flnlrh of the first half reads' .Juno 23
with Paoll ; Juno 30. with Oulph Mills; July
4 (a. m.). with Wayne, and (p. m.) with
Bon Air.
The one nffalr that stands between tho
leaders nnd the pennant Ii tho contest
booked with Wayne on the morning" of
July 4 Wayne nnd Autocar engaged In a
great battle on Saturday and the former
won, 3 to 2, In ono of tho most sensational
matches ever decided In tho Main Lino
League. The affair was played, on tho
grounds of the Wayne club.
Looks L.';c Autocar
Frederick L. Hose, president of the Main
Line League, In discussing' the situation,
has this to say:
"Yes. it appears as If Autocar will cap
turo the first half pennant. Tho club Is
going good, has plnycd consistent ball and
I am of the opinion It will win out. Of
course, It Is a very close race, with Wayne
Just a step behind In second place and threo
others tie for third position. Many of tho
managers are now laying plans for tho
second half A number of teams lost play
ers due to enlistments but In most cases
their places hae been filled with equally
good material. Narberth has been a trifle
unfortunate In falling to secure competent
players to plug up tho vacant holes." '
President Itoso nlso admitted the Main
Lino League suffers from Inroads made
by other leagues and clubs, fiven tho
majors aro looking over Its talent, and
recently a Phllllqs' scout attended a game
to glance over Bob Olbson, the big N'ar
berth twlrler, and also Bill Durbln, now
playing for Strawbrldgo & Clothier. Tho
business Interests of both prevent their
playing professional ball.
Circuit Is Completed
At a meeting of the Independent Indus
trial League held last evening tho circuit
was completed with tho addition of Atlas
Ball-nearlng and American Knglneeilng.
Both clubs aro fully uniformed and ready
to take the field, but tho managers have
not as yet secured grounds.
As the league Is a trifle late In getting
started, It has been decided to play a com
pleto schedule, and In order to do this, mid
week games will he scheduled. Tho full
schedule will be announced at a meeting
next week. It has also been decided to
present to every member of tho team win
ning tho pennant gold medals, and sultablo
remembrances will also bo tendered tho
runners-up.
Saturday's schedule Is: Atlas Ball-Bcar-Ing
at Baxter. Kelly & Foust; Standard
Supply and Kqulpment at American Un
glnecrlng. A. H. Slcklcr at Philadelphia
Dye Works nnd John T. Lewis & Sons at

IN WOMEN'S TENNIS
Stages Uphill Fight and
Overcomes Mrs. Wood in
Brilliant Battle
SCORES 1-G, 6-4 AND 7-5
ST MARTINS. Pa.. Juno 21.
Tho logical favorites played to form to
day In worklnsr their way Into tho semi
final round of tho women's national lawn
tennis tournament slniilcH, on tho turf courts
of tho Philadelphia Cricket Club at St.
Martins.
Hut the semntlnn of the day was provid
ed by Mrs. Gilbert Harvey, tho Philadel
phia district champion, In her struggle with
Mrs. Itawson L. Wood, one of the strongest
of tho visiting Now Yvakers. Mrs. Harvey
won at 1-6, 0-4, 7-5, but so desperately
had tho women battled for supremacy that
Mr Wood almost collapsed after lealng
tho court and had to receive attention be
fore hho was able to stand on her feet and
walk tho short distance to the clubhouse.
Mrs. Harvey's victory was only achieved
by a stirring rally in tho final set, and when
it seemed sho was doomed to defeat, with
Mrs. Wood leading at 4-1 on games, tho
Philadelphia fetar proved her courngo by
starting a hard driving nttnek that carried
her nlong, slowly but Irresistibly, until
she drew even nnd finally wont Into tho lead
at C-t.
Mrs Wood, who had been tiring taw,
managed to win tho tenth gamo by a
spirited attack from mid-court, during which
sho cut off her opponents drives from closo
to tho net nnd sent tho ball spinning back
Into tho courts from tho full volley. But
Mrs. Harvey had discovered the secret of
how to encompass Mrs. Wood's defeat by
hammering away at tho latter's weak back
hand, and this sho did relentlessly In tho
last set. Her placing wan also a feature
and sho compelled Mrs. Wood to keep on
tho run ceaselessly In tho effort to retrieve
tho sizzling drives that kept whipping over
tho net and down alternato sides of the
court.
Mrs. Harvey Shows Hcadwork
Mrs. Harvey's backhand Is not any too
strong, but she managed to place It hotter
than did her opponont, and with moro
pace, and, when she could, ran nround tho
ball to take It on her forehand Mrs. Wood
made her best showing In tho second set
when ho reached mla-court nnd volleyed
her returns sharply back for the points.
Hut It was Mrs. Harvey's pcrsUtenco In
putting her passing shots against tho New
York player's net gnmo that turned tho
tide
In spite of tho great heat and tho fact
that her left ankle was In bandages as
tho result of a strain received a few daya
ago, Mr. Harvey covered her court moro
swiftly than Mrs. Wood and was always
on the alert for tho openings, no matter
how small. Her victory was a well-deserved
ono and will add to the Interest In
her match against MIsb Molla BJurstedt,
the national champion, tomorrow morning.
Miss njurstedt gained her semltlnal
bracket by defeating Mlsa Phyllis Walth.
a member of the Cricket Club, by a scpro
of 6-4, 64. Tho local player made her
fight In tho first Bet and actually led tho
champion at 3-2 on games, using her over
head gamo very cleverly In smothering tho
Norso girl's swift drives. Hut Miss lljur
Btedt lot out a,n extra burst of speed at
this stage and won four of the next flvo
games for tho first bet at 6-4, going to the
net nnd finishing off her points with beauti
ful shots across the court.
Molla Puts on Steam .
The second set found the national title
holder going even faster nnd she fairly
burned the court up with the fury of her
deep court driving. These shots sent the
ball down the side lines so swiftly that Mlsa
Walsh rarely succeeded In getting her
racket In the way. She was able to win
only the fifth game, and that on her op
ponents errors, before Miss BJurstedt had
taken tho set at 6-1 and the match.
The other winner In the singles was Miss
Kleanora Sears, of Boston, who tllmlnated
Mra Knud Dnhl, the Swiss champion, by
a score of 6-2, 6.4.
The little foreigner plays a strong back
court game and her ground strokes have
plenty or pace, but Miss Sears mora than
counterbalanced this by brilliance at the
net position. She nlso baffled Mrs, Dahl
by her chop stroke., the ball rarely;, getting
a fair bound. Miss Sears; -will meet Ml"

- ' V
Giant Manager Admits in Interview He Was In
fluenced to Sign "Unsatisfactory Statement." .,
Didn't Want Papers Sued by Tener
Uy KOBEIVr
JOHN J. McGRAW has not emerged un
scnthed from that little controversy with
President John K. Tener. of the National
Leairue, although It had been announced
that eor thing had been "amicably set
tled " Tho manager of the Giants occu
pies the same posltltnn an an ostrich who
sticks its head In tho sand In an effort
to hide from the pursuing foe. He has no
chance to get away with It nnd the events)
promised for the next week either will force
McOraw to mnko another statement mat
ho "said nothing" or make him bock down
n second time nnd take hit seat with the
other uniMipular baseball men.
McOraw has dropped considerably In the
estimation of tho fans. Instead of fighting
for what ho believed wn right, ho sim
mered down to n calm, weak Individual,
obeying orders llko any other hired man.
Gives Out Interview
The laUit development in the case Is an
Interview with the once peppery mannger
which was printed In the New York Ameri
can this morning. Ioolt It over.
"I had no desire or Intention to go bark
on the .New York newspaper men. I
thought 1 doing the lirnt for all hand,
nlirn I was iuhled to .Ign the stiitement
tn the directory for I wi told bj my
friend, that I'rrsldent Tener hud derided to
file libel null usnlnst eeternl new .paper
miles I repudiated rerliiln InteMlru ar
rredltrd to me.
'The prpKsnre brought to bear on me nn
that 1 wnnld cuiise great Injury tn the Na
tional I.eiiKnt', the New York club nnd base
bull unless 1 made n Htntenirnt satisfactory
In the bunrd. I mndn ctrnng objection la
certain wording uf the document nnd g-nlned
m. point hj linking less pointed word In
serted liutead.
"President Hempstead, my employer, beg
ged me to end the controversy fin good nnd
all, and I listened to hi ndtlre. I think
my action will In time br proven to be fnr
the bet Interest nf nil concerned, nllhuugh
1 nrUnnw ledge the settlement was not en
tirely satisfactory to me."
Scribes' Integrity at Stake
Perhaps this Is a nice way to get out of
It. and, again. It may not be. The main
Idea Is that tho truthfulness and Integrity
of certain New York newspaper men who
stand high In their profession have been
attacked Either they aro guilty of libel
or McOraw has made n mistake News
paper men these days do not print untruths.
They always have something on which to
base their stories, and McOraw's charges
put all ot them In a bad light.
The New York newspapers today declare
McOraw must make reparation The base
ball writer's association of that city has
taken up the case. Affidavits arc to be pro
cured from tho writers and they will be
filed with tho National League with a de
mand that a thorough Investigation be
made. If this Is refUEcd, It Is declared,
the courts will bo asked to determine who
told the truth tho writers or McGraw.
BIcGraw's Popularity Takes Tumble
Muggsy Is not nt all prpular with the
scribes nowadays, as can be seen by the
following articles which nppeared In the
New York papers this morning. W. O.
McGeehan, of the Tribune, peni the fol
lowing: "Tho publlc-be-damned attitude of the
National Haseball League In declaring the
Incident of tho McGraw charges against
John K Tener, president of the league,
closed will not dismiss tho matter Accord
ing to a statement signed by McGraw, the
manager of tho Giants "repudiates certain
scurrlous articles purporting to be Inter
view? with him and criticizing tho National
League, some of Its clubs and Its president,
John K. Tener."
"With .the Issuance of this statement
Jonn K. Tenor itald, "Tho Incident is
closed " McGraw slipped out of New York
through a side exit and Harry N. Hemp
stead, president of the New Y'ork Giants,
left for Indianapolis after declaring that
ho had nothing whatever to say
"The Intel views which McGraw denies
and pronounces scurrilous wero written by
newspaper men whose Integrity and
veracity arc beyond question In the matter
of veracity betuetn John Joseph McGraw,
manager of the Now York Giants, and such
men as Sid Mercer. Sam Crane, Frank
Graham and J I' Slnnot there Is no ques
tion. Those newspaper men are not the
sort who would distort facts or who would
vlolato a confidence. Tho word of any one
of these men will stand ngalnst a million
affidavits made by McGraw and stamped
with the shifty Btnl of tho National League
directors
"The Incident Is far from cloned; the
linsehnll career of John J. McfJraw 1 the
only mnlter closed by this statement.
"Up to this time McOraw has shown good
points, even In his wrongheadedness. He
fought to tho limit cen when he knew that
he could not win. But In this Instnnco he
seems to have quit cold, and to have be
trayed the confidence of some of his closest
associates after assuring them that he was
right, and that he Intended to see the fight
through.
"It will be recalled that at tho end of
last season McGraw made certain allega
tions against tho Giants. The National
League announced that ho would bo dis
ciplined Nothing was said to McOraw
about that. The league directors decldod
that It would be best to 'consider that
Incident closed ' By their very attitude
they Intimated that McOraw was right.
They permitted the public to believe that
McGraw was stronger than the league It
was tho old publlc-bc-damned and It's-none-of-thelr
business attitude of the men
who compose tho bonrd and who appear
temperamentally unfit for their work.
"If professional baseball Is a sport, as the
magnates most earnestly maintained when
organized baseball was being tried under
the Sherman law, then the backstairs poli
tics and the star chamhor sessions should
bo abolished and the management of tho
league should be as open and clean as the
game Itself.

as easily ns the sanguine directors of tht.
National League believe."
"Incident Is Not Closed"
Goorgo Daley, sports editor of the Morn- -lug
World, Insists that the Incident bo taken,
up ngaln and tho matter cleared. He says:
"John J. McOraw, manager of the Giant,
refused flatly In Boston yesterday to offer1
any explanation of the circumstances which
led him to deny his friends In settlnr 'him
self right with President Tener, of the Na
tional League on Tuesday. Ho simply aald
that he considered the Incident closed.
"President Tener on Tuesday and the
members of the board of directors of the
National League used these same words In
dismissing the case from further considera
tion. "As a matter of fact, the Incident Is not
closed. Baseball writers, two of whom at
least have been McOraw's warmest sup
porters and friends for a number of yeara,
should be heard.
"Such well-known newspaper writers as
Rid Mercer, of the Globe; Sam Crane, of
tho Rvenlng Journal; James P. Slnnot. of
tho Evening Mall, and Frank Graham, of
the Evening Sun, have been held up to con
tempt and ruthlessly nsslgned to a new
Ananias flub.
"Incidentally, their grievance, and there
Is ground for grievance, becomes the griev
ance of every sporting writer. The good
name of Journalism cannot be used ae a
buffer to cover up the petty Internal squab
bles of the National League."
Muggsy in Tight Fix
Innls Brown, of the New York Sun,
also expresses himself on the subject. He
writes:
"John McGraw has taken a leap out of
the frying pan Into the fire. The man
uger of the Giants, who apparently cleared
himself with tho Natltonal League on Tues
day, Is In about aa light a little fix
as ho has been doing his entire career.
McOraw's attempt to clear himself by pass
ing the buck to the correspondents traveling
with the Giants Is making no great hit
with the members of the Fourth Estate
who write baseball In this city.
Jn a sweeping repudiation McOraw
branded all alleged Interviews In which
he was supposed to have attacked Tener,
nresldent of the National League, and Its
umpires as 'scurrilous articles.' That may
have cleared John J. with Tener, but per
haps this time McGraw has bitten off more
than ho can chew.
"Newspapers of the city do not propose
to pass bo lightly over the manner which
McOraw has chosen to extricate himself
from tho perils Into which statements cred
ited to him In Interviews had thrown hlm.
HIs denial leaves the matter hinging on &
point of personal veracity, and steps are
anticipated that will bring out a thorough
investigation."
