COMBSDOESIOnr
PH1LSAFTERDEFEM
Camo Is Played on the Field,
With No Alibi for Disappoint-
ing Box Score
PITCHERS IN POOR FORM
St. Louis, Mo.. .Tunc 9. Jack
Coombs has lifted "if" from the man
agprlal career. In playing oyer de
defeats the expression: "If we would
have done this if we would have done
that" Is common. It is If and if and
tome more ifs in turninir a defeat into
, n box score when It is over. Not
with this new manager of the Phillies,
though. He plays the game on the
field when the time comes to make the
guess Coombi makes It or he puts it
up to the players and then it U put on.
If it fails the second guess docs not
come up for dNcusslon.
"The only thing to the game is to
play it nnd play it to the best of your
knowledge," commented Colby Jack. "I
don't believe iu kicking the skin off the
shins when the first guess misses. We
tad one play for the book along this
style it was in Friday's game with
the Cardinals when we were one in
front in the ninth inning with Stock on
i-econd and two out and Hornsby the
batter.
Wild Pilch
"We had to decide on Hornsby
whether to walk him or let him hit. We
figured it this way Hornsby Is a better
hitter than Heathcotc. A single by
Hornsby would tic the score. Heathcote
had to get a long drive to beat ur.
Before Heathcote had n chance to lilt
Hogg made a wild pitch advancing the
runners nnd n single by Heathcote sent
in the two runs. We lost.
"Of course, we did not count on the
rvlld pitch. We lost the game, and
when the players went back to tlmr.
question, 'Walk Hornsby or let him
Mt.' I ended the argument by telling
them that the game was over. We tool:
our chance and lost.
"Give m that same line-up and I'll
do just what T did I'll walk Horui,bv
and other good hitters in the ninth in
ning with n lead of one run, two out
and n runrer on second.
"It is just our tough luck to have
our pitchers out of shnpe. They have
sore arms and really are not in trim.
To get fifteen runs in three games nnd
three defeats is out of the ordinary."
Card Fans Impressed
Coornbs impressed the St. Ivouis fans
even In defeat. He has had to shift
pitchers in each game. Take Satur
day s game, when he had a fl-to-2 lead
and then lost out, 8 to 7. The batters
are holding up their end. but until the
pitchers recover the journey in the
West may be a rocky one. From here
he goes to Chicago, where he will face
such hill artists as Alcxnnder, Douglas,
2?,, nnd Va"Bnn- Cravath, Luderus,
Williams and the others will have to
?.M?nsi.dcrab'p s,Bging to keep the
1 nlllies from slipping a peg or so.
In the wind-nn of voRterr!nr, .
defeat Eppa Hlxey was introduced to
the bor score same Eppa, fast one,
good .curve. He was reached for one
run working the eighth inning, but not
because the Cardinals slammed him.
He retired Hornsby on n fly to Cravath
and tossed out Heathcote. Miller
walked, nnd the inning should have
closed when Levan grounded to Pearce,
but there was a fumble nnd Miller went
to third, demons popped one in back
of second for a stingy single, and Miller
(.cored. Another week nnd Eppa will be
ready.

Jack Naylor Hurls in Good
Shape, but Grooves Ball for
Guy Morton
DROP BATTLE IN THE NINTH
The A's discovered a new way to lose
a ball game In Cleveland yesterday.
The new stunt is to groove the sphere
for a pitcher in the ninth inning.
Two ucre on in the ninth, -with the
score tied at one, and Guy Morton, the
Indian hurlcr, who bats about .175, was
swinging his weapon over the plate. He
was allowed to bat because Iic Fohl
expected the game to go into extra inn
ings. Jack Naylor, who had been pitching
sterling ball, served one up in the
groove. Morton binglcd, and the 10,000
Cleveland fans went home to a warm
dinner happy. The deciding figures
were 2 to I.
There was some consolation in the
A's reverse. Naylor has proved that hi
is ready to take his regular turn in tht
box. Jack has been slow in getting
into form. He showed a distinct in
clination toward wildness in the early
part of the season, and Mack was afraid
to use him. Yesterday he gave only
two bases on balls.
Naylor permitted eight hits, three of
which came off Speaker's bat. The A's
had six bingles, Bobby Roth and George
Hums getting two each. Itoth had a
triple and a double.

every description listed to play, one of
the most representative fields ever
gathered will be seen in this tourna- '
ment. Not long simo a prominent ama
teur said :
"You can take the names of Jerome
Travers, Francis Uuimet. Charles
Lvans. Jr.. Wulter llageu. Jim Barnes,
Jock Hutchinson, Mike Brady, Tom '
Kerrigan, Bob McDonald. Gil NicholU,
Put Doyle nnd a few others, mix them
in a hat and pick one. That is as !
likely a way as any to guess who will
lead with such a field of talent." ,
So far as choosing goes this is as '
good a solution as any, for mo-t any
one of the foregoing is as likely as unt
to win the title. There are few who I
believe that an amateur will "do the1
trick" this time, though when it is con- i
sidered that out of the Inst four cl.-tm- I
pionships three have been won by j
"simon purcs" Most anything seems
possible. '
Francis Ouimet is said to be playing
better than ever, and Brae Burn has
been a familiar scene to him for years, i
I Therefore, he will have a little advan
tage over the other amateurs. Charles
(Chick) Lvans, Jr.. present titleholder, '
is uKo at the top of his game, but as
much cauuot be said of Jerome Travers, I
who has not been playing at all for a
long time.
Travels. howecr. is one of those who
plays brilliantly at times, whether or not
he has had a club in his bauds for
months.
'igarettes
They Win You On Quality!
Your enjoyment of Camels will be very great be
cause their refreshing flavor and fragrance and
mellowness is so enticingly different You never
tasted such a cigarette! Bite is eliminated and there
is a cheerful absence of any unpleasant cigaretty
aftertaste or any unpleasant cigaretty odor!
Camels are made of an expert blend of choice
Turkish and choice Domestic tobaccos and are
smooth and mild, but have that desirable full-body
and certainly hand out satisfaction in generous
measure. They are good all the way through and
may be smoked liberally without tiring your
taste. You will prefer this Camel blend to
either kind of tobacco smoked straight!
Give Camels the stiffesttryout, then
compare them with anvffiffiirette in the
.world at any price for
satisfaction. No matter
you smoke Camels they will not
tire your taste!
