SMITH was allowed to icn and the Phils dropped the tiiial ami Cincinnati Ocnrgi took an iinnieicifiil beating in the tiftli inning. Ten men faced linn and live strong and healthy scores came in. These, when hoisted on the coined scoreboard in light field, proveil to be just enough to win the game Despite the icveise. which maiked the last appearance of the PhiK until June 'Si, the battle was quite exciting Tin men of ('numbs evidently do not fenovv jvlien the are licked and did their derndest to giab the veidict. Old fiavvy Cravath knocked in the first tallv in the opener with nn untainted niuglc, and in the sixth put his side in the ball game with a hefty swipe to the center field bleachcis, scoring lush Moused ahead of him. Cy Williams counted two more runs in the seventh with his double lo light, but after thai the fctllff was oft". The home-town bom could not even the count and Pat Jloran departed for Pittsburgh in a liapp.v frame of mind. Smith wns not in a winning mood .vesterdny. and show eel it in the or.v first inning. After Itnth bad beaten nut a bunt. Xcnle hit a liner over second which had every appearance of a safe hit. Harry Penrce. however, took a running dive nt the ball, knocked it down with his gloved band and. while on . tha grouuil, tossed the sphere to Whitted in that inning, but the Keds kept on hammering the ball. In the third a pair of bingles and a wild pitch scored Cueto, and when the fifth rolled around the decks were cleared .for action. Cady could have been sitting iij the dugout rending a paper or attending a jnovie, for he was not needed. The batters did not allow the ball to get over the plate, but soaked it to all corners of the lot until ten men bad been up, six hits regis tered and Jive tallies spiked the platter. It was a sad spectacle to see those Itedlegs scampering around the bases, but (ieorge was allowed to lcmai.i just to-show the folks that Joe (Jriin wasn't the only guy who could stop a knockout wallop without taking the count. Doug liaird had hard luck his first two times up. (Jrensy Xenle pulled a grand larceny catch in the tiist when he ran back to the bleacher vvull and caught the ball with one band. That should have been a three-bagger. In the fourth, Cueto ran past the flagpole and took liner off the wall, and after thnt Doug decided to strike out and lnok intield flies. Those long hits got him nothing but n lot of vvorr.v. n;i"r lMlS.Wr, Ihr tHlil catcher, vo has heat with the Phils off and on moilln off for (no seasons, hurst into the hox score for the firt time 111 7ii career in the ninth.

Jolt for National League Leaders THE National League leaders hud a tough time of it jesterday, both Xcw York and Brooklyn dropping extra-inuing battles. Big Kd l'feffer met with his first defeat of the season at the hands of the lowly St. Lose Cards, when two runs were eased over the pan in the thirteenth inning. The Pirates scored four markers in the tenth, trimming the (Jinnts 0 to 2. The Cubs maunged to lose to Boston, which is quite n feat these days. Hippo Vaughn lost the decision to Arthur Xehf in a regulation contest, but ""his club remnins in fifth place. Todn.v the western teams will travel home- "ward, but Cincinnati and Pittsburgh will play in Pittsburgh. St. Louis and Chicago xvill meet in St. Louis tomorrow.

This j ear we have no past season tin go back" to with nn.v satisfaction, as the games last year weic not up to the standard of the previous meets. Triangular Rivalry In every case this year I have given the best of it to Penu, Cornell nnd Michigan, since these three teams are the ones that do the leal battling for Hirst honors. I have given Penu the very best of it in the running events and have not given them much in the field. However, they have sevcrnl men that have a chance to come through whose names do not show on this sheet. Should they deliver, the Bed nnd Blue will. have an easy time in winning. Cornell T hnve favored in the hurdles nnd I am depending on Moakley to spring a surprise with Smith nnd Wntt. The latter scored back in 1010 and should be much better now. Tn the distances I do not thing that I hnve given them enough but this is nil I enn figure that they are entitled to got on their performances, compared with the other runners. Too Much for Johnston Michigan, I figure, is a good team but they ennnot win. Johnston, who will be depended upon to score in three or lour events, win unci tunt it is n much larger job than it looks on paper. The two tenms that have the best chance, Penu nnd Cornell, nre depend ing on getting their points out of n few events. Penn will try and must score lieavily in the 100, 220, 440 nnd pole vault or they nre out of it. They will need the points in the other events" in which they hnve good men entered the 8S0, high nnd broad jumps nnd hurdles but nil depends on the first mentioned. Cornell needs nil the points It can get in the runs and hurdle because they have no men for the other events.
