BRA VES HOLD CELLAR
AGAINST PHIL BIDS
Stallings Flatly Refuses to
Yield and JOoombs Is
Forced to Win Second
Game and Even Break
KELLY SETS RECORD
By EDWIN J. POLLOCK
fTlHE Braves flatly refused to yield the
cellar to our Phils yesterday. They
were ousted out of it in the first of a
pair of nightmares at the Baker estate,
but they came back strdng in the sec
ond spasm and lost the game, but won
mo cellar. With July 1 no longer
somewhere in the distant future, cellars
ore popular.
Our Phils exhibited like reimlnr tnll
tnders in the first fright and won the
coveted cellar by losing 10-0. The
fielders managed to kick the bajl around
at critical moments and pull bones on
-the bases whenever it looked as if they
raigni get some runs.
Eppa Rixey was jint right to help the
cause, yielding tea hits and eight runs.
George Smith -ih permitted to indulge.
in toe lestivlties and lie did well, too,
allowing six hits for a pair of markers.
Kay Keating did his best to hold the
Braves in the cellar, but when he start
led to wobble, Al Demaree was ordered
in and Al, being a former Giant with
first-place, aspirations, spoiled Boston
hopes bv holding the Phils safe.
George Stallings used some great
strategy to regain last position in the
nightcap. He pulled Jim Thorpe out
of the lineup because Injun Jim had
three hits in the first game and when
the Phils were in such a position that
they couldn't help themselves, Northrup
relieved Nehf. and scored a moral Bos
, ton win by forcing over the winning
Phil counters. So the Coombsmen had
' a 9-5 victorj tlaust upon tbem.
The A's are passing through the ep
demic of first-inning fives, but it can
t be said that the Marks arc improving.
They held the Yanks to nine runs yes
terday, while on the opening day of the
series the Hugglns maulers gathered
eleven. , Also there were no homers jes
terday. To say that the New York sluggers
are a little too much for the Mack
flingers would be putting it mildly. The
offerings of Wally Kinney and Harry
Seibold yesterday were murdered. The
Yanks gathered an even dozen bingles
for fifteen bases. This makes the total
Huggins hits twenty-four for forty
three sacks in two dajs.
The old war horse. Jack Quinn,
pitched another one of his very good
games, and when Jack is very good he's
unbeatable. Onlj, four hits were
chalked up for the miserable Macks, and
there was no extra base clouting.
Mack probably will send Scott Perry
against the pace-setting Yanks this
afternoon, and if the big westerner
can't stop 'em if's hopeless. .Ting
.f Johnson will get a ciack'at the Huggins
crew before the series is oer, and Jing
should be able to do something. He has

Four Homers for George Kelly
Connie Mack didn't have to go all
the way to Columbia, S. C, for a
hitting first baseman. He should have
tinned his peepers on George Kelly,
the Rochester first-sacker. who set up
a new modern batting record at Reading,
esterday. All George did dirring the
afternoon wns to 'hit four homers in
succession, whang out n double and
wait for four bad ones.
Kellj's exhibition was no fluke He
is leading the International League
with a percentage on the other bide of
.400. In the long official batting hgures
he was setting the pace with .304,
but since then has passed the four
hundred mark.
Kelly was not good enough for Jawn
MeOraw's club, and was turned loose
by the little Xapolcon, after a tryout
two j ears, ago. He has been burning
up the league this season, and is said to
be an exceptional fielder as well. He
is a nephew of Al I.ange.

Princeton Leads for Intercolle
giate Coif Honors on
Merion Links
PENN MEN FOURTH
By SPICK HALL
'Ihcrc Is a vast difference between a
gridiron and a midlron.
The last time Princeton and Yale met
nt New Ha en on the gridiron the big
bowl, had it been made of wood, would
have groaned under the weight of hu
manity imposed upon it, for over
70,000 persons were gathered there.
But of course, "being just plain con
crete the big saucer didn't even heave
a sigh.
Yesterday the Tigers again met the
bearers of the Blue. At this meeting
the midlron supplanted the gridiron.
The contest took place on the links of
the Merion Cricket Club, somewhere in
Delaware county. Four golf scribblers
and a scorer flocked out via the Phila
delphia and Western to take in the
scenery, whirh was great.
Tigers in Van
Lest we forget Princeton and Yale
weren't the only colleges missing putts
jestcrday. Hirvnrd, Pennsylvania,
Columbia and Williams had teams in
the field competing in the annual in
tercollegiate tournament for golf honors,
but Princeton and Yale were far in
.
1 advance
of the other quartet. The
Tigers led the field at the end of thirty
six holes of play with 072 the total of
their four best performers. Yame came
In with GS7. Harvard had 701. Penn
701). Columbia had 742 and Williams
did retr guard dutv with 77(5.
Today the collegians were scheduled
to play another 30 holes, and this total
with jesterdaj's will be computed in
declaring the team the winner, but
while the computing is good it can
easily De computed that Princeton is
going to win unless all her plajers get
more badly batted up in today's play
than they did yesterday.
Penn's Chances
Of course, our dear old Penn has a
chance to win the Fame chance that
the Salvation Ami) has of recei-.iug n
S100.000 donation from Jess Willard.
But the Red and Blue plajers can by
a bit of bracing up beat out Harvard
for third place, as they were only five
strokes worse than the Crimson's best
four yesterday.
T. B. Davis, Yale, turned in the best
card of the dav with loll. He played
the morning round in SI and the after
noon in "."; this last, by the way, was
the best IS-hnle score of the daj .
One of Davis's teammates, S. Scott,
led in the forenoon with a 70.

Eddie Burns Seeking
Trapshooting Honors
Del .Monte Cal June 23. Eddie
Burns, former catcher for the Phila
delphia Nationals, who retired from
the game this year, will figure in
the registered trapshooting tourna
ment at Del Monte on June 2S and
2(1. Eddie is not so expert with the
shotgun as he was in pegging 'em to
second, but he is fairly proficient in
winging birds, and he expects to get
on to the knack of the thing very
easily.
aforesaid, conceded the meual play hon
ors to S. Dean, the oung Princeton
player. But Dean crossed them and
came through with 169, thirteen strokes
more than Davis, which proves that as
golf prophets the gallery would make
fine referees for the big fight. At that
the gallery was keenly Interested in
the dining room and mahogany decora
tions. It was a very hot day.
The match will begin tomorrow
morning for the individual intercollegi
ate championship.
Play at Phllmont
A field of thirty -four playeis began

YOU can't tell what a tire costs when you buy it. You
learn when it wears out. The buying price of hand
made Globe Tires (Fabric or Cord) is a little higher, be
cause the using cost is a great deal less.
The price of Globe Tires averages about 10 more than ordinary
tires, but they give 50 more 'miles. And they give you those miles
in greater comfort with less trouble on the road.
Figured on a mileage basis, Globe Tires are the most'economical you
can buy. Globe Tubes in Globe Tires make the ideal combination.
