Mack Similarly Engaged rpirB strain of nn unusual amount of playing, with Its seven' tax on the pitching strength of the team, promises to work with icverso nncllsh on our Phlli. who return today to ghe hattlo with the subdued and mlrncleless Braves from Pawston. In three days five games will bo played a double-header and two on the Fourth of July. ' There should be no reason to feel nervous oxer the chances of tho home-town boys In the pennant race, for Pat Mnran has the classical and brainiest aggregation In tho league. However, we must admit that the substitute material Is very weak, and If one regular Is relegated to tho side lines the stuff Is off. Oscar Dugey and Bobby Byrne arc tho sub tnneldcrs, and tho outfield talent on the reserve list consists of J'nink Schulte. How can a blg-leaguo club get along with only three men (b fall back on7 Then we have tho pitching staff. Alex Is good; so are rtWe. Mayer. Lavender nnd Ocschger. But suppose one of thoso men goes bad? The team will be In a very bad way. The only nttong part of the club Is In the catching department. Bill Klllcfcr Is tho best backstop In cither league, nnd his under studies, Eddie Burns nnd Jack Adams, are capablo players. Pat Moran leallzcs that something must be done In a hurry, and President Baker feels the same way. Scouts are gumshoeing through the bushes for talent, and It's a cinch that some new faces will be seen on the home lot If any rural phenoms are discovered. "TITE ABB willing to pay any price for ball players these days," said ' President Baker. "If a first-class pitcher were on the market -wo would go as high as $15,000 for him, and that goes for Inflclders, too. In a case like this money Is no object, and It Is my desire to give the fans of Philadelphia a championship club, regardless of the cost." Connie Mack Also Is Looking for Talent Without Results TT ISN'T nn easy matter to get ball platers these days, and Connie Mack Is -- having his share of hard luck. The boss of the A's also has his bank account wide open and any bush leaguer who shows sufficient promise can grab part of It. Connie has been looking for ball platert for three years now nnd his search Is not yet ended. He has tried out more joung plaers than any other two managers In the big leaguos and Is showing persistency that Is hard to equal. Mack wants a first-class ball club which can compare with the famous machine of old He will not experiment very much In the futuic. nnd those who do not appear ripe will depart wearing the official tinware At the start of the season Frank Thrasher Was hailed as a wonderful outfielder and swatsman extraordinary. He was given a chance nnd foozled terribly. Instead of keeping him on the bench, as In the olden dayB, Frank was shipped back to Atlanta, where ho now Is playing. Lee Gooch wa3 another example. The burly Southerner won a couple of Barnes with his trusty bat nnd had n hitting ntcrago of more than .300, but ho couldn't field his position nnd vta3 sent to Springfield, Mass. Lee looked ery good at tho plate and would have been an Ideal pinch hitter, but that's not Connie's aystem. A man must bo able to do more than one thing if ho stays with the Athletics, and that meant curtains for Mr. Uooch. Wally Schang now Is playing In the outfield, where he belongs. The former tnustached hero Is a good hitter nnd will strengthen the club considerably lf he plays every day. We take our lives In our own hands when we say that Wally ts a better fielder than n catcher, but that seems to be the case. When he Is behind tho bat Schang has the pitcher In n nervous state most of the time, and the youngsters cannot work with him at all. If he can keep away from concrete walls Wally will do well In the outfield and should stay there. T 1HEB.E are two promising recruits season Is ever they should hrcak Dugan, the Infleldcr from Holy Cross, and Pat French, the outfielder nnd speed merchant from Maine. This pair Is nbsorblng knowledge from the bench and will be given a chance to show what they can do on the next western trip. Barry Believes Red Sox Arc Due for World's Scries Again TACK BARRY, manager of the world's champion Hod Sox, can't understand why the critics of baseball are picking a rlche lower than first place for his crlmson- hoscd warriors. The team, ho points out. Is Just as strong ns It was last jcar, when It went through the moit grueling fight of n decade to a woild's champion ahlp. If anything, he believes, the Bed Sox must be figured stronger, for they hate tho ndded strength of a now pitcher, Hadcr, for first-class relief work. The Red Sox have one bad attack of trouble which will have to be Ironed out, however, before Barry can be taken bcriously. The loss of Bill Carrlgan not as a manager, but as a catcher and n coach will have to be overcome before tho Red Box will be figured on paper ns strong ns the White Sox as they now stand. Catching on the Boston club Is atrocious, from a hlg-leaguo standpoint. Neither Cndy nor Thomas Is a capable receiver for a team of Boston's standing, while Sam Agnew, a really high-class receiver, a hard hitter and an excellent man at throwing to the bases, IS doing bench duty. Last year when the world's series drew near Thomas Was picked out for some exceptional praise. It was declared for him that he would develop some day Into the same steady, consistent catcher as Carrlgan. With this atrength the hose were figured strong in the catching department. The loss of Carrlgan. however, let Thomas down with a bumn. Cadv notor im hn.n .,... thing more than an ability to get his hnnds rpHE best pitching staff In tho world won't deliver the goods when the catchers are unablo to handle them right. This Is the main reason for tho success of pitcher after pitcher who Joined the Boston club under the regime of Carrlgan. Delaware County Baseball League Is Booming , rpHE wonderful interest In baseball outside of the two big circuits was amply demonstrated In the Delaware County League when more than 4000 spectators watched Upland defeat Chester on Saturday In a sensational ninth-Inning rally. The roster of players In the Weeks circuit contains enough stars to pick a combina tion that would compare favorably with the American and National Leagues. Among those drawing pay, checks are Charlie Dooln. former manager of the Phils' Stanley Baumgartner and, until a few days ago, Charles Albert Bender; Briscoe' Lord, fnmous with the Mack machine when It won two pennants; Mark and Lai, of the Chinese University team; Howard lohr, who was with Cincinnati and Cleveland- .a ianue, rormcriy or mo federal League and Detroit Americans; Joe Knotts. a foimer Trlstate catcher, and Tiny Turner, also of the same league; Spalding, of Olympic soccer games fume, Bill Eschcn, a Southern League outtlplder; Ted Bald Win, crack West Chester basketball plajer, and Rube ('ashman and Ally McWll Hams, whoso names in the baseball world are known wheretcr the sport ts played Other players In the league nre equally well known. The Delaware County League Is the organization with which "Home-Run" Baker became affiliated when he quit the Athletics, and Is the only league In the history of baseball playing on Saturdays and holidays that was ever offered admis sion Into the fold of organized baseball. UPLAND was depending on "Chief Bender to pull It through, and Pitcher Earl Twining will be the hero of the hour If he can defeat Stanley Baumgartner at Chester on July 4 In the morning game. Fall Latest Sensation as Distance Runner fTtHE West has developed another great mller whose rccoid-breaklng performances In the last month stamp him as one of the best distance runners Jn action at present. Many good mllers have been seen In the last two years, notably Wlndnagle of 'Cornell; Overton, Yale; Carroll, Michigan; Meyers, Chicago A. A and Boynton' of Cornell. The most recent sensation is E. If. Fall, of Obcrlln College, who covered e mile In the Western Conference championship meet In 4:16 2-5, and an hour later cqptured the two-mile run In record-breaking time. Jole Itay, of the Chicago Athletic Club, was considered the best distance runner Jn the Middle West, In view of his brilliant work In the eastern Indoor meets last -winter, l-all's fine work brought about much speculation as to the relative merits of the pair of runners and a match race was arranged, The Central A. A. U. cham pionships were held on Stagg Field, In Chicago, last Saturday, and nay and Fall faced each other In the mile. After completing one lap' Ray dropped out. Fall con tinued without much opposition and turned In a mile In the remarkably fast time of 4:16, breaking tho Central A. A. U. mark by 51-6 seconds. IT WAS a bad day for Ray. He later started in the five-mile run and was beaten by five yards by his teammate, Bert French. Bender Must Show Better Form K,' TF PAT MORAN expects Chief Bender '- close race with the Giants, the once he did In Brooklyn. He served here twice as a rescue pitcher, and In each Instance was a bad as the, man he relieved or wprse. He succeeded Joe Qeschcer yesterday after five Innings and the Dodgers touched him for five hits, two earned runs and one unearned run In three Innings, which Is no way to save a ball game. 3ender went to the mound In the second game on Saturday, after Mayer had been knocked out In the fifth Inning. The score was 6 to C In favor of Brooklyn, and the Phillies had an excellent fighting chance, aa Cadore was wabbling badly. One harmless hit was made off the Indian In the sixth Inning ot that game, but In the wryenth the Dodgers bunched four hits off him for two earned rum, and those runs sponsible for Brooklyn winning by Ljw s ii-ljain thUMCerd and '..

WESTERN GOLF TITLE PLAY TO GET UNDERWAY MONDAY CHICAGO, July J. The annual West ern amateur golf championship will start on Monday morning on the links of the Midlothian Country Club, Blue Island, II!.. and will finish on the following Saturday afternoon. While the strength of the entry from the West Is assured, the officials of the Midlothian Cluh and of the Western Golf Association are particularly desirous of se curing the appearance of the best of the eastern golfe1.

Ht1 i "rH THE DAYS OF REAL SPORT BUXTON EASILY DEMONSTRATES THAT HE IS IN A CLASS BY HIMSELF AMONG THE GOLFERS OF THIS CITY Made It Known Early That Winner of Event Was a Real Champion in Spite of Decision of Golf Association of Philadelphia f: IOB the second year In succession Cam champion of Philadelphia At a time when tho wate of hysteria about the war was sweeping ncroos the land the United States Golf Association decided not to glvo the title .Since then those officials at the head of that organization hate Ixen busy ex plaining that It was at the urgent request of the Secretary of War So tho Coif Asso ciation of Philadelphia has followed suit and announced that In none nf the tourna ments would a championship or prize be aw aided So to all Intents and purposes Buxton did not win the championship last Saturday, for there was none to be won But. ns he said a few days before the final match. "So far as I am concerned the tltlo passes In case I should not win I feel that the man who wins this event ought to bo the champion of Philadelphia, and If I win It 1 have the right to be known as tho champion " Of course, this Is con trary to the ethics of tho game, but there neter was a flnei or a'tuarer sportsman than Huc-k He did not wish to go on record in the etent of any one else winning the tournament of hating a lot of people say that the tournament did not amount to anything because no title went with It Most of us realize by now that both the national and local golf assor'atlous acted hastily when thc took the nctlon that they did. Sports Should Continue i:en the President of tho United States was Insistent that the youth of tho coun try should continue to play baseball, golf and tennis for In that way he thought they would best condition themseltes for the struggle As a matter of fact, only two men In Philadelphia were affected b the war, and they were Hugh Wllloughby and Francis Keiible Tho first Is In the natal reserte and tho second is at Fort Niagara trslng to win n commission It is tery probable that after the golf officials raw Secretary Baker that gentle man forgot all about the golfers and tennis plaers. It Is not as If there were a mil lion orftwo of young golfers In this coun try. Of the million or more golfers In this country fully 80 per cent of them are men past tho thirty-year mark The youngsters of the nation hate not taken to tho game as they have to tennis, nnd It Is not that the game does not appeal to them, but It Is rather because It is so much more ex penslte than tennis or baseball. Different AVith Golfer Give a youngster a racquet and a half dozen tennis balls and he Is equipped for a year's play With the golfer It Is dif ferent He requires at least a half-dozen clubs and a bag. and half-dozen balls will not last him more than a month or two at the best No one can play golf well unless he has a caddie to carry his bag and watch the flight of the ball In all our country clubs the dues for the tennis players are much cheaper than for the golfers. And In a month It will cost the golfer more than It will set the tennis player back for the entire ear. So eliminating the young men who are the real contenders for our national golf championship, the number of hoys In the twenties who play golf Is very small com pared with those past the thirty-year mark. Take any club you please In the Philadel phia district, and If 20 per cent of the membership Is made up of young fellows of the conscription age, it Is unusual, to say the least And whllo no one doubts for a moment that the United States Golf Asso ciation acted from the tery best motives In going to see Secretary Baker, the action in deciding not to award any championships was a hasty one. Women's Association It has been rumored that no title will be awarded In the women's golf championship and here Is the real absurd end of the whole situation Probably the reason Is that the golf officials think It would not be fair to call oft the title In tho men's events and then go ahead and award the title to the women. The upshot of this will probably be the formation ot a women's golf asso ciation There Is no reason under the sun why the United States Golf Association should run the women's championship and It ST.

But to get hac'f to Buxton for one min ute The championship was fn many ways one of the best contested affairs In the his tory of the organization in splto of the fact that Knight broke so badly In the afternoon Both men were fortunate In one thing and that was that other players eliminated a lot of players who were re garded as inoro likely contenders for tho championship than the victors And in the case of the tlctors these In turn were beaten so that when It came down to the semifinals the only real contculer left was George Hoffner, nnd Buxton had no great trouble In beating him Interesting Round The morning round between Knight and Buxton was ono of the best played rounds ever seen In this city. Tho medal cards showed how well both men were going. If any ono other than Buxton or some one who has had as much experience had gone up against the martelous golf Knight put up ho would have cracked, and Knight, in stead of being two up would probably have been six or set en up On several occasions Buxton would play the holo In par figures only to hate Knight sink a bird, yet the tetcran refused to crack even at a time when ho was four down and things were going ngalust him Yet In the afternoon the golf that Knight displayed was worthy only of an eighteen or twenty stroke man. Instead of losing the six out of the first seven holes he should hate lost them nil. Not once, with the possible exception of the ninth hole, did ho play golf worthy of his fine morning round It was one of the most curious re torsals ever seen on a Philadelphia course. Buxton, on the other hand, played with the skill of a master, and at all times was his golf of a very fine order He showed last year that he is the bes; golfer in the Phila dolphla district and there is no reason this year to change tho Judgment of last year Ono fitting champion succeeds tho other and both their names arc Buxton in ATLANTIC LIGHT ATLANTIC W - - .J SEEM TO HAVE FINISHED TY COBB'S CLOUTING RECORD IS PEACHY ONE, BUT CAN'T COMPARE WITH ONE MADE BY NAP LAJOI While Hitting .400., Great Frenchman Went Bin? gleless Twelve Straight Games Umpire Bait-j , Tr, r-c4-1sr anrl "nnPStl't-, Gfit AnvtVlinrr By GKANTLAND RICE Alan Scegcr American Member of the Foreign Legion Killed in Action July 4, 1916 Somewhere in France where crosses lean Above so man praves today; Where faded lilies place their screen, And summer winds kneel down to pray; You, who first ventured overseas, To watch, at last, the light grow dim, God must have sent his gentlest breeze To bring your spirit back to Him.
