CDOIBS'S POLICY
Jack Not Complaining Dospito
Hard Fight in West With
Band of Cripples
LOSE OUT IN THE NINTH
Notre Dame Twirler
, to Sign With Phillies
South Bend, Intl., June 7. Pat
rick Hurray, the sensational south
paw nnd mainstay of the University
of Notre Dame baseball team for
two seasons, will sign a contract
with the Philadelphia Nationals next
week, when the Phillies arrive for
a scries of games with Chicago.
Larry Sutton, the Philadelphia
scout, paid an unexpected visit t,o
Notre Dame nnd following a con
ference with Murray, received i as
surances that he will accept the
terms offered.
St. Louis, Mo., .Tune 7. If .Tnck
Coombs should suddenly fall heir to an
other Alexander or have his crippled
pitching staff recover its stride like the
Cardinals, then the Phillies would be in
a position to put up n stubborn fight
out in the West. The Quakers were
close to the .500 mark in starting
their western visit yesterday. They
had a G to 4 lead up to the ninth in
ning, but the Cardinals flashed back at
them avlth two runs and won out, 0
to 5.
Coombs is not complaining. lie is
waiting for some curve 'artist to find
his footing, more than one he'd like
to hAve three or four tlirco or four
who would be able to team together
nnd hold the other fellow to n small
score.
The batters are playing their part.
They are driving at the other pitch
ers and getting enough runs to win,
but now nnd then, just when Coombs
imaglues lie is on the rond to a regular
winning streak, something happens and
he is pushed into the losing column.
The Phillies were not expected to get
out of the bottom nftcr the kick-off, but
hnd they won yesterday's game they
would be on even terms with Inst year's
champions think of Hint! and with a
club which has been ripped with in
juries. Davy Bancroft has been out for
weeks and Oeorge Wliittcd is on the
bench with a come-back nttack of
Charley horse. Altogether, things are
not what they should be with the Phil
lies. Yet they refuse to give up.
An illustration of their gameness
under such circumstances came against
the Cardinals yesterday when they were
dragging their feet behind a 4 to 0
score. They had one stingy hit off
Cuban Tuero for five innings, and it
looked as if they would be burled com
pletely. But snnp ! snap ! just like that
they were in the game.
With one out in the sixth Pearce sin
gled, Williams doubled, Muesel was hit,
Luderps singled and Crnvnth doubled
for four runs. Then they forged ahead
with one in the ninth when Crnvath
walked, Baird sacrificed and Adams sin
gled, but Bradley Hogg slipped in the
pinch. He slipped in the ninth with
runners on second nnd third nnd two
out nnd allowed Henthcote to smnsh n
single through Bnird for the ticing and
winning runs.
Notes of the Game
Whin tho fleldlna- sllns behind the medi
ocre rltchlnir. the J'hlli are lost. Two box
score errors nnd one mental mlscue pre
sented the Cardinals with three of the four
runs in the second round. ...
The Cardinals threw ft bundle ot bunts
at Smith and Ilalrd. Three sacrifices were
registered In the second.
I)ert Shotten covered yards nnd acres out
In left field. Crav.th, Luderus and Smith
lost extra-base hits on catches made after
lonff hikes.
They can talk about young phenoms and
minor-leaeue fiends, but don't forget Clif
ford Cravnth. He seldom falls In the
Pinches. His double, which tied the score
In the sixth lnnlns. sending In two runs, hit
the left-field fence on the first bound a
mlKhty wallop.
Doub Balrd deserved three extra base hits.
1 His tough luck started In the second, when
Hmlth made a leaping- catch against the
right-field fence. Heathcote cuaght a liner
running to right in the fifth, and In the
sixth Shotten tore over and gloved a liner
close to the line, 1
For a club expected to be lifeless and
doomed for the subway, the Phillies did not
give up an inch. In distributing the miracle-man
praise this season Jack Coombs Is
entitled to. a slice of the spoils.
There are rumors. In Ht. I.ouls announcing
Rogers Hornsby Is on the market or eligible
for a trade to the highest bidder. With
Johnny Lavan at short, Hornsby was moved
over to third base nnd Block to second.
But nog doesn't feel at home at third, and
as the Cardinals have an Infield combina
tion without Hornsby when Paulette re
i turns, Hornsby may be used to secure some
- 'pitching strength.
The Cardinals have one Idea that should
" be followed by all of the big league mag
nates. This Is the knot-hole, gang-free nd
mission for kiddles under fourteen with per
fect deportment cards in school. The young
l utera, who number about Sou a day, do more
rooting than BOOO paid fans.
The western trip will be a tough one for
Coombs as tho Cardinals are an improved
club, although they're at the bottom. The
Cubs are getting excellent pitching. The
Jleds occupy second place and the second
Udlvislon Pirates polished off tho (Hants.
Coombs has these clubs to face to get In the
.race,.

RECORDS SHOULD GO
IN CLASSICS TOD A Y
Mile, 440-Yard Relay and
Likely to Be Lowered ip
Games, Says
By TRI) .MEBKniTII
World's flrrntest Middle Dlstnnre Runner
TF FIUNKLIN FIELD track is good
' nnd fast this afternoon records nre
sure to fall. There will be three events
run in which records nre the object of
their existence, namely, the mile, 440
yard relay and the 8S0-yard relay.
In the mile Joic Bay, paced by Craw
ford, of Lnfayette, and O'Conncll, of
Harvard, intercollegiate champion, will
make his first attempt for the mile
mnrk, nnd nil conditions being favor
able, it looks ai though the little Chi
cago runner has n fine chance.
Tcnn After Itecord
Lnwson "Robertson will send his
championship relay team, Davis, Smith.
Landers and Haymnnd, nftor the mnrks
in the 410 nnd 8S0 ynrds. These are
odd distances, nnd not entered Into by
collegiate men very often, but the rec
ords stand on the A. A. U. records,
nnd Bobby thinks that he can put tjio
name of Pcnn behind them ns they
hnvc for the mile relay distance, and the
freshman mile mark.
The Bed and Blue men have covered
the distance in nearly record time on
Rovernl occasions in practice, and Bobby
believes that they can really beat the
figures. TIic marks arc now held by the
C. A. A. teams made in Newark at the
national championships in 3010.
Jlny linn nil the speed thnt he will
need to brenk the mile record. He has
shown n quarter in 52 2-5 seconds since
ho lins been in Philadelphia training ot
Franklin Field. He has been known to
run the half In 1 :ii0, nnd this year hns
done three-quarters of a mile in 3:10
without cxteuding himself.
Bay Ideal Mller
All these figures show that Bay has
all the qualifications of a milcr capable
of hreakiug the record. I think that if
he went out to do n three-quarters onlv
that Bay could do 3:04, so that if he
does u half in 2:05 nnd .1:10 for his
three-qunrters, he will have enough left

The leaders are in nction in the Manu
facturers' Hiiscbal! League this after
noon, nnd nil sorts ot predictions hnvc
been made as to the results of this
afternoon's condicts. The games this
season have been the closest in the or
ganization's history, and never was
such interest shown by the vnrious
teams nnd managers. At the monthly
meeting nt the lintel Ilinghom every
delegate three from each club and
twenty-four in nil were in attendance.
This is' the first time in the history of
the league that such a record has been
made, and President I'aul Itrmnfielil
snys it is a sign of the interest being
displayed.
Htokcs & Smith will travel to the
Dement grounds, nnd n hard struggle is
expected, ltacho will endeavor to stop
the league leaders, and Ilearne, who
lias been pitching good ball, aided by
Wetzel's, sensational hitting, will try
nnd keep Stokes & Smith on top in the
league standing. The C. II. Wheeler
nine, which Is on even terms with
Stokes & Smith, will travel to Broad
and Blgler streets and cross bats with
the champion l (i. I. outfit. Last
year's champions have dropped two in
n row, but the team has been strength
ened and expects to hand Wheeler n
jolt. The other games on the schedule
are Miles-Bement-I'ond at Lewis, and
Franklin Printing at Olsen Machine.
The games In the Main Line league will
bring together Dun & Co. nt Autocar. Illtl
Mason writ hurl for the ihamplons In nn
endeavor to et the team going, and ho will
be opposed bv "Knotts" Ma)er, late of
Merchant Whip, und who has recently Joined
Autocar. ,Drexel Hill is dovm to tackle Hob
Calhoun's Kast Kails Oobson aggregation,
and Lansdowne V. A. A, pays at Narberth.
There will be u few sunirlHes sprung In
all probability In tho Montgomery County
league this afternoon. The tlrst division
clubs are playing thuso of the second sec
tion, and u general shift in the standing is
likely, as the clubs are '!oelv bunt tied, and
