lirnneh Hiekey. the Caril'i' bnrs,
handed the championship to Mc(!raw
yesterday in a left -handed manner, lie
didn't vay the Giants would win nnd
he didn't nay they would loc. His
main statement was that the Ucds
wouldn't win nnd as, according to the
dope, there are onl two clubs in the
race for the Hug, it looks as if Hickcj
favnis the Giants.
"Who do j on like for the National
League pennnnt?" Illckey was asked.
"Well, I don't think the Iteds will
win," lie nnswerod. "Rig.lit now they
arc in need of nn outfielder and there
don't seem to be any move to get one.
Iircsslcr, is plnjing n fnirlv good game,
but the abseme of a regular outfielder
is felt. It nrcbnblv won't be long be
fore Sherwood Mngee gets back into I
the game, but his long sickness 1ms
left him weak nnd I doubt if he will be
able to plu his best game any time UlU

"Then you think the Giants will i
win, don't you?" was the next ciucs- .
tlon. I
Rickey dodged.
"I said 1 don't believe the Ueds will j
win," he replied.
One-run Decision
WIIi:N the A's lost three games In n
row in St. Louis, some one ex
pressed themselves as believing that the
Mnckmcn have diopped more games by r
one-run margins this jear tlinn any
other dub in the league. Such is not1
the case. The Senators' win in this do- j
partment.
Clarke Griffith's club is the hard luck
champion when it comes to dropping'
games by a hairline. The Senators
have lo-A. seventeen battles by one run.
The A s aie second with fourteen.
Washington has copped six games by a
single score, and the Mnckmen seven, i
In winning close games the Rrowns
top the circuit with eighteen. (. in-
cago So-nnd Yanks arc tied for second
with eleven. I
There is no particular club that
stands out for one tally defeats in the
Tiniilln- eiriuit. St. Louis and Chi-1
cag'o each have dropped thirteen, Pitts-,
burgh and New York eleven, and ISrook-1
lyn, ten. When the Phils lose tney,

FORMER CYCLE CHAMP
BECOMES
John Mead, Jack -of- All
Sports - Trades, One of
Those Who Gave Up All
for Links
NOTED AS OARSMAN
Ily SPICK HALL
ORVKRAL days ago we remarked that
thousands of athletes hnd deserted
their original sports choice for golf. At
that time we didn't know nbout John
1 Mead. Now we do. He is one of
J i them. Hence we have with us todav
.Mr. John Mend, golf fiend und golf
teacher, baseball pitcher, and manager ;
former bicjele champion, ioliuist, or
chestra leader, trnck athlete nnd single
sculler.
And the greatest of these, according
to John, is golf.
It was some fifteen years ago that
Mead gave up the majority of sports nt
Which he was adept. He gave them up
not because he feared advancing column
of jenis would slow him up, but be
cause lie was nttacked by the deadly
golf bug, from whose ravages there is nn
escape. From that time-until the pres
ent Mend puts golf above all else. Tor
J ears he hns been a disciple of the "fol
low thiough." He preaches It nnd
pinetiees it. Not only in golf, but in
everything, he believes in completing
the job with n follow-through stroke,
whether it is on the athletic field or in
the plnnt of the Reek Engraving Com
pany, where he occupies the position of
general superintendent.
Rowed on Schuylkill
A good many summers and a few cold
winters hnve sped by since Mend
peddled the wheel at the old Tiogn
track, situated nt Twentj -second nnd
Westmoreland stieets. At that time lie
was rated ns one of the fastest and
most consistent prlnt riders in the
game. Hut he gave it up for golf and he
linsn't regretted his move. At nbout
this same period in his nthletic career
Mend was a member of the Malta Uont
Club. He won many races on the
Schuylkill and was rated as a high
grade perfoimer witii the oars. Itut
this game, too, was not sufiicieiltly al
luring to hold him when he had once
got a film grip on a midlron.
John Mead's name is not in the box
ing lecord books, nevertheless no safety -first
advocate would say in his pie-ence
thnt golf is an "old man's game." That
would be the most uusnfety-lirst lemaik
imaginable.
At the age of forty-nine years, John
Mead is n rapid devotee of golf, u good
plnjer and a participant in other
spoits. He managed the Reck En
graving Company's baseball team when
it won the championship of the Cmtis
League. Recently he went into the
box himself and hurled a contest for
the Curtis Couutiy Club team, shutting
out the Triangle bojs.
Rain Is Forgotten
Rain never interferes with nnjbodv's
golfing. Nor does it with Mead's, but
he did have to postpone another con
test not long ago on nt count of exces
sive moisture. An argument uios"
about John's speed. He was present
Farrell Buys Stable
and Returns to the Turf
Now York, July If). Frank J.
Fnrrell, for many jenrs president
of the New York American League
baseball club nnd for some jcars
pievious the owner of a formidable
.stable of thoroughbreds, has gone
back to the tuif in a pretentious
way.
Fnrrell, who for several jenrs past
since his retirement from baseball
hns been interested in a number of
good thoroughbreds, has just pur
chased the Brighton Stable, which
ho will campaign in hispwn colors.
SCHUPP HAS NOT RETIRED
Rickey Says Southpaw Will Report
to Cardinals in a Few Days
Another of those lumois started by
Now York baseball writers to keep this
sport before the public hns been spiked
by Malinger Brunch Itickey, of the St.
Louis Cnrdinals. Itickej, who is
pnstiming in this city until tomorrow,
wns nil het up over the report that
Freddie Schupp was going to retire
rhther than play in St. Louis.,
"I saw Schupp in New York," said
Rickey, "when the deal was made nnd
lie is satisfied to come with us. I
granted him permission to reninni m

him and .lolin Harlow (not Barley- '

ceitnin day Inst spring, but it poured
on the dny scheduled nnd all bets were
off. It is safe to predict, however,
that John would hnve won better than
thiid money, even if he had spiked
himself.
Another one of John Mend's hob
bies is music. He is first violinist nud

Red Sox Players, in Public
Statement, Deny Misman
agement or Dissension
RUMOR CLUB FOR SALE
Itoston, July 111. The world cham
pion Ited Soy, now in seventh plnce in
the American League standing, pub
lished today it statement signed by
irtually every member of the team
(leming that the team's failure wns due
to dissension or mismnnngement.
The poor showing is attributed in
the statement to "a combination of bad
hieaks, the failure of some of the regu
lars to perform up to their pnst stuud
nnK, weak pitching and continunl bad
link on the field." Manager Edward
Harrow is said to have "treated his
plajcrs in n manner that could not be
improved upon" and the stntement adds
that "the plajcrs are in complete har
mony with themselves nnd with the
manager."
Call Mays, the star underhand
pi( her, who ipiit the team recently,
will be traded, according to an an
nouncement by President Frazee. lie
said, that almost every team in the
league was seeking Mnjs, and that
deals now pending might involve two
oilier teams, with the Ited Sox obtnin
ing one or two pitchers.
The sale of the Boston Ited Sox
seems likely in the near future. "Inner
circles" hnve it that Hnrry I'rnzee hns
let it out that the club enn be bought.
It is no secret that at least three
offeis hne been mnde for the Ilostou
club. One of these cotaei from Xew
York inteiests and two nre local, the
latter inquiries being made through a
down-town bank.
The sum offeicd by the New Yorkers
e(eeds a million dollars, including the
club's property, but nt lenst one of the
Ilostou offers is as big.

Despite tho rnlii, the mnnacprR of the
"little lensup" tcnmn are confident that
their crotinih will be in fair condition
for the plajinn of this afternoon's
scheduled league contests.
One of tho most important on the list
is in the Manufacturers' League, be
tween Wheeler and Miles-Ilcment. The
latter club is in possession of first place
by virtue of playing one more contest,
but if Wheeler is successful it means
they will take the lead for the first time
this season.
llement'fl only defeat of the playing
season was sustained at the hands of
Wheeler.
The opposing pitchers will be Cohen
nnd Ilacho. They are recognized as the
class of the league and a pitching duel
is promised.
Stokes S. Smith will travel to the
V. (i. I. grounds at Iiroad nnd Digler
streets, where a battle for third place
will be staged.
Fitler Nine Plays '
The Northeast Manufacturers'
League also has n strong fight on for
the chnmpionsliip and the leaders come
together there, too, this nfternoon.'
Schwartz Wheel is leading by a full
game, but they tackle their nearest
opponent, E. II. Fitler Compnny. A
win for the rope work aggregation will
send the teams into a deadlock for the
lead.
It is another case of leaders clash
ing in the Main Line League. The
second half is just tinder way in the
McCrca circuit and the managers, play
ers and fans never have displayed such
interest in a race. This afternoon Dob
son and Xarberth, both on even terms,
will clnhh. It will be Lafitte against
"Lefty" Sterling.
Drexel Hill's star aggregation, for
merly Art Summers's All-Americans,
will oppose the champions of last sea
son, E. G. Dun. The Commercial
Raters have fared badly ull season.
The other game is Lansdowne at Auto
car. Volz vs. Stauffer
The big clash in Montgomery county
is the Southampton-Souderton affair.
The foimcr club now has secured
Tommy Volz to hurl and Souderton
will depend on the league scns-atlon,
Stnuffer. Soudeitou lost for the first
time iu two weeks last Saturday and
this afternoon's affair will be a tough
one. The Doylestown-Norristown en
gagement promises to be u close one.
Manager Truitt, of Strawbridge &
Clothier, has secured the IIoss-Bright,
first-half champions of the Philadelphia
Manufacturers' League, to oppose the
store boys on the Intter's grounds at
Sixty-second and Walnut streets. Hews
will oppose Enrnshaw, the big George
Sihool boy, who held the Smith team
to two hits last Saturday.
The Stetson Ilatmakcru will play a
return engagement with the Merchant
Ship nine, The shipbuilders defeated
the locals the hrst time tney came to
gether, and Tom Friday, who was on
the mound for the winners on that oc
onsioti, will be against them. "Mule"
Watson will hurl for Earl Mack's team
At Miller and Ontario streets Nativ
ity will meet Camden City. The Rich
mond club was scheduled to play Lup-
ton last night, but the rain necessitated
the calling off of the game till nett week.

tered the Philadelphia Manufacturers'
League aud will play its first gnme this
