Maranvllle's great run to the plate In tho thirteenth Innnlng of the Boston-Cubs game, a homer by George AVhltted and Fred Tonoy's seventeenth xlc'tory of the season. Fred has won one more game for Cincinnati than Alexander has won for the Phillies. Will Cooper pitched the Pirates to a win over the Giants. As ono New York writer explains It. going through tho formality of winning enough ball games to be officially credited with tho National League pennant Is a tedious business, which occasionally falls on tho Giants. Grab an earful of what tho critic further has to say about tho game and we will then pass on to moro vital news.

Indeed Yesterday nfternoon, up at the P. G thn Giants enjoyed a brief Respite.

J In tho final round of play to decldo the en trant to qualify for the center champion ships net month. Emerson Is one of the newcomers In ten nis among tho Juniors. He won his first match by default, but showed his worth when he beat Carl Fischer, of tho Cynwyd Country Club, one of tho best of the younger players in this section, In two straight Bets, 6-3, 6-1, The East Orange youth will remain hero to play in the Stato championship, starting next Saturday. Blankarn, who halls from Pitman, N. J Is another promising youngster. He de- fcated Kamerly, of the Cricket Club, Is a first-round match, and then met Roy March, of Cynwyd. March had previously defeated Newton Beck In a two-set match, 0-2, 7-6. Blankarn was too strong for the Cynwyd player, who was eliminated in two sets, 6-1, C-4. Emerson and Blankarn will meet in the final round of the event, the winner to play In the event on August i. this morning on the Philadelphia Cricket Club courts. In the semifinal round of the round robin tournament which Is being brought to a close, Herman Dornhetro, of the Frankford Country Club, had a, hard battle with Mar shall Vanneman, Jr., the clever Cynwyd Country Club player. Dornhelm won this match by the scores 6-3, 8-6, 6-2. lie showed wonderful Improvement in his ten nis and, as Vanneman was also playing a great game, Dornhelm had to play the limit to win.

Wilbur Is a frail-looking lefthander, nboiit tho size of a scldel. but tho Glnnts could not hoak his t-outhpawlng They made one vicious rush nt him In tho flrat frame, and finding It wan no use, they began enjoying their leisure. It was a nice little left-handed workout for them by way of tuning up for Ruth or Williams In the opening frame of the world's series, although, of course, they will have, to do more hitting against tho redoubtnble Babe or Williams than they did against Wilbur If they expect to win. Wilbur not only pitched the Giants to a low whisper, but he alro crushed in tho winning tally In tho eighth Inning Bill Vngncr knocked a two-bagger to tho right field wall over Dave Robertson's head, and rode lioine in great stato aboard a double by Wilbur. Roush Secures Four Out of Five Eddie Roush had ono of his good days In the matinee won by tho Reds, the victory oerl ast year's National League champions giving them a three-point lead over the Cardinals and a live-point advantage over tho Phillies.

This has been the naming of tho tnira outfielder. There has nover been any argument, re buttal, question or doubt about tho first two. Ty and Trls have been accepted mechan ically. They were beyond nil rivalry and all discussion. One merely had to put tho fig ures on display and end tho pollto chit-chat of tho occasion. But naming their running mate, or field ing mate, for the open Job has been another matter. And It still Is, Thcro was a time when Joo Jackson was batting .408 nnd .395 when Joseph horned Into tho select potpourri by maclng his way In with tho old ash furniture. Jackson battlt'g .408 nnd .39E could not be overlooked when tho basic value of tho base hit was figured In. For a bato hit never gets below par. But Jackson batting under .300 was an other matter. Tho Carolina swntsman had to range ahovo .340 to bo placed upon even terms of aluo with others batting under .300. For the greater part of his value has always been as n batsman, not as a fielder or base runner. In the Grabbag Last season It looked as If Davo Robert son would take his place with tho two elect. Davo apparently had everything needed the wallop, tho speed and tho arm. But .Dave has failed to hold his high place with tho supcrentrlcs. This season ho has been driven back by half a dozen who havo passed on beyond him. Reaching Into tho grnbbag, several names come out. Tho most valuablo outfielders .In the American League for a third choice nro Bob Vcach. of Detroit; Felsch, of Chicago; Milan, of Washington, and Lewis nnd Hooper, of Boston. Hooper Is tho star outfielder of this lot, but batting under .250 lets him out. Felsch is a grand outfielder, ono of tho bent, but he, too, Is now under .25. Lewis Is another bird of brilliant plumage, but be, too, Is well below. 300. Veach and Milan are tho only two poised nround tho .300 plntcau. And it would bo hard to pick a star outfielder to movo with Cobb and Speaker batting below this mark.
