MACKMEN LOSE
TWO TO DETROIT
Adams and Perry Prove
No Match for Pair of
Youngsters
netrnlt, July 23 True tn their cus
tom of winning a double-header when
they don't throw one away, the Tigers
lit on the Athletics yesterday for a
brace of lctorlcs. and for the present
at lea-t are in no danger of slipping
back into the musty cellar
About 7000 fans were In attendtnee
and the s-eores were 6 to 0 and 0 to 2,
the Mackmen being In the rear on both
occasions.
Manager Jennings nominated a nalr
of his kid pitchers to stav the attack of
the lsltors and they did all that could
be expected of them. Kallio heemed to
have the Macks on his hip virtually
throughout the first brawl, while In the
closing number George Cunningham.
hough hit rather freely, had the happy
faculty of preventing the enemy fiom
bunching blows.
Against Hughlo's kids Connie Mack
exhibited Adams and the widely adver-
i:seu .-.con i-erry as nis mngers. Adams
was thumped roundly for thirteen safe
ties, including a pali of two-ply pokes.
Perry outpltched Cunningham in the
curtain appearance In so far.as the num
ber of hits were concerned, but he
couldn't keep them po well separated as
urn ueorge and dldnt have the luck
behind him
Scott "blew" In two Innings, Detroit's
only scoring rounds, groups of three hits
coming in each of the third and heventh
rounds.
Philadelphia had one or more men
on the bases in nearly eery Inning,
once filling the sacks, but In each In
stance, save the second and sixth, when
a hit, sacrifice, bape on balls and nn
error cashed the first run and a pair of
pokes attended to the other, the spit
ball chucker never was In any real dan
ger. The .Macks could get runnm.s on. but
found It extremely difficult to get them
around, as ten left on the sacks will
attest

NORTH HILLS WILL HOLD ,
TOURNEY IN SEPTEMBER
FOR SOUTHPAW GOLFERS
A
First Local Tournament for Left-Handed Players 'Was
Held at Same. Club'in 1916 Mrs. Barlow
Beats Men ,
By WILLIAM
SOME wise golfer observed years ago
that no Slow nlaver Is a irnnrt nlnver
and he added that nr left-handed player
Is a good player. If you happen to play
golf slowly you will take exception tc
the first statement and If you are a
'southpaw" you resent the second. It
is perfectly true that the majority of
cur leading batsmen are left-handed
Among other "southpaws" who might
be mentioned are Cobb, Speaker, Jack
son, Slsler, Kddle Collins, Baker, KUth,
Kauff and Cy I'mianis.
On the other' hand, there are few
really first-class left-handed golfers In
the country. As the result of an nrgu
mtnt a couple of years ago the hustling
North Hills Country Club gave a left
hinded golf tournament. It was an all
".ay affair and there were prizes for
.he best handicap score for 36 and for
18 holes. IL C Maxwell, of the Tren
iOii Country Club, won the longer event,
and Harold p. .Ogden, at the Country
Club of Lansdowne, was the victor In
the 18-hole handicap. -
Probable Dale September 10
It was a very successful affair, and
North Hlljs will hold another tournament
for the southpaws this fall, probably on
September 10. W. W Dudley. 21D Sum
mit avenuo, Jenklnlown, Pa.. Is chairman
of the committee and he Is anxious to
get the names of every left - handed
player In the Philadelphia district, and
players from clubs outside the Philadel
phia district will bejnvlted as well. If
you happen to be a left-handed player
or know of others send the names to him
I know of one player who plays all his
shots until he reaches thp green with
left-handed lubs. When It conies to put
ting he uses a right-handed putter.
Whether- ho Is eligible to play In this
contest I do not know, but there are not
many ambidextrous players ln captivity.

"Crafton Smith and I were Just leav-'

bound on top of the hill and roll dawn
toward the green. It bounded on the

and we both expected to see a one

a foot from the hole. It had left a

a perfect line to the hole. The chance
was too good to miss, and Crafton went
quickly and rolled the ball straight Into
the hole. '
"We then departed quickly, and had
played about half of the next hole,

Gteatly to the surprise of the golfers she
returned the low gross of the day with
an 83. Her nearest male competitor

time that a woman was able to play
