"Darin hdltnr Veenlng Public 1 etlgrr
"11TILD WILIATM DONOVAN beamed complacentl) upon the vnt thtons
at the National last Saturdaj night l'or u time he forgot he was to
t the new manager of the bill club at 1eie l'lt for lilt thoushts wctc
joyous ones He had jut broken a t email, able leeoul one which has stood
for years-and picked the w Inner of a boltig bout. He seemed as hnpp)
as Joe Fletcher and Kddle Cook who steeled the customeis nt the Rate
"" "Wllljum the Wild epoed a million iloll.trs wotth of Ivoij when he
allowed a smi,e to appear on hl fate Muggsy Tav lor and Bobbv Gunnis
were Interested onlookers, because it was the Hist time thev ever had bun '
able to agree with the noted star of the diamond nt a hoIntf show. It
was a stiange and unusual oecuitence.
t Battling; Mnrrav had walloped the da lights out of Hauling Leoniid.
and Donovan bet hi do? license on Mnrrav After that Wllljum was con
tented to rest on his lam els.
"Now that I have departed ftom th maiden ilas" he ald, "the show
no longer interests me However I would like to bum Into oratoiy and
tall a story which to m mind, never has beii pilnted. It gives a clean
! bill to one of die best umpires who evei called 'em behind the plate, and
now that he has passed to the gieat bejond let? tepect his mentor "
"While Jack Itusso and Oscar Gardner fioundered through a "loppy,
semlwlndup Donovan told the following- stotv :
"Remember that game between the A' and Detroit 'way back in 1907,
when Harrv Davis hit one on the noe to deep tenter and was called out
when It was claimed a spectator collided with Sam Crawford Just as he
vva about to catch the ball' Well there was lots of trouble over that
play, and I'l bet nunv of the old fans nie aigulng about it .vet
-'Silk O'Lough in. who was woiking behind the plate that day, lias
been accused of giving the decision which viituall) put the Athletics out
of the running foi the pennant.
WTllAr uinpiic uas in bad with Connie Mack and nil o htS
players for a long time, and 1 uaiit to sny tight now that he
had nothing to do icith the decision, lie uas blameless, hut neier
offered an alibi. He took his medicine like a man.
Connolly Called Out Davis in Memorable Game
mOMAIY CO.NNOI.LV was the man who called Hanv Davis out and
claimed theie had been Interference on the part of a spectator In
center field In fact Tommy will admit it nnv time vou a-k him about it.
"I dlstlnctl.v recall the play and the events following it because I was
pitching for Detroit on that dav It was near the end of the seison and
we. were fighting it out with the A s We came here one half game behind
but took the lead after winning the first game The net dav.'l believe,
we were Idle because of rain and then came the crucial battle
"An enormous throng turned out and the spectators were allowed to
go upon the field Ever) time 1 looked back to get a line on my outfielders
J aaw that bank of humanlt which seemed to be getting closer to second
base. Davj Jones In left and Tj Cobb In right were backed against the
crowd. In center Sam Crawford had more leewaj, for a sort of V was
formed out there and Sam stood in the center
"That was the lav out when Harrj Davis stepped tip I can ec him
now swinging tlat long bat, and recall that sinking sensation when he
reached out and hit tho ball full on the nose Straight toward renter it
"wiled and I thought it would go Into the crowd.
'"Crawford, however, ran back and then toward left field and a spec
tator, who evidently was excited, ran near him Just as Sam was leaning
back to make the catch this man bumped him and ever thing was spoiled.
"The crowd went wild, Davis started around tho bases and the De
troit, piayers entered a protest on the grounds of interference. There was
quite an argument and O Loughlln was appealed to for a decision.
"Silk walked over to Connolly, and said:
"How about It, Tom"
"'Tho mans out" replied Connolly.
'O'Loughlln walked back to the plate and another heated dtscutsion
began among the plajers. Once more Silk approached Connoll.v.
"'What was that decision'' he asked
"'I tell sou the man's out for Interference" stormed Tomtn. 'Get
that? He's out"
"Then O'l.oughhn made his ruling for which ha has been blamed to
this day. I am in a position to givo the real ttory, for t was standing
near Connollv both times when Sll'c appealed to him.
HIT SHOULD hate been figured out that it ivasn'l O Loughhns
' decijion, anyuay. He was behind the plate and the umpire in
charge, but Connolly too. on the bases and it was vp to him to
render a xerdiet on anything that liappencd there and in the out
field. That's the real story of the feud between Silk and Connie
Jfocfc."
Indians Didn't Suffer in Trade Willi Mack
1HE Bobby Roth trade, which was announced by Manager Mack jester-
day, was not much of a surprise to tho readers of these columns More
than a month ago we said Larry Gardner. Elmer Myers and Charlie Jamie
eon would be sent to Cleveland in a trade, but apparently made an error
when Joe Evans, the thlrd-sacker of the Indians, was included Perhaps
that end of the deal will be announced later for at present it docs ndt
look as if Connie got nny the best of It
Bobby Roth Is a great plajer, a wonderful outfielder and slugger and
will fit In nicely with Kopp and Tilly Walker in the long grass Hut he
la no more valuable to a ball club than Larry Gardner. That being the
case, why Include Mjers and Jamleson' From where wa are sitting, it
looks as If Cleveland should have handed Connlo a couple of plajers along
with Roth for the best third baseman In the league, Instead of being nicked
for Jamleson and Mjers, Mack Is a real David Harum, but didn't show
It In this transaction.
But before we go any further, let this thought sink in Connie Is
jboss of his ball club and he can do an) thing" he wishes with the plajers
IH alwajs Is seeking to strengthen the A's, and perhaps he Is doing that
ry thing now However, there MUST be something else to the trade,
or no man of Connie's ability would consent to a snap like that unless
ta had something up his sleev e. Perhaps it is a pitcher or ev en Joe IZ ans.
rime will telltand it will be up to us to await developments
EffV This guy Klnnej, who also comes here, once belonged to the A's. but
fel didn't do much. Fred Thomas, the Red Sox third baseman who was
grabbed by. the waiver route, Is a sr.ell fielder, but a weak hitter. How.
ever, he Is J oung and may dev elop,
WIOBDY HOIH tiill strengthen the outfield and the absence of
Larry Gardner uill weaken the infield. Good third basemen air
scarce, so what's the Idea of the dealt There 11VST be something
more coming, for Connie is not losing his old time shrewdness
Last Week Record One for Boxing Clubs
I AST week was one of the best boxing weeks Philadelphia has ever seen
4 from an attendance standpoint. Record crowds turned out to witness
, the shows at the OljmpLa, Cambria and National, thereby proving the
vport is exceedingly popular. It also proved that Philadelphia fans wllb
attend good shows, no matter where they are staged.
At the Olympia, which presented Johnny Murray and Joe Ilurman list
' Monday nljht, the receipts were greater than In any regular show, accord.
