Mr. (ileason has his club in first place, and two pitchers on his pajrol! can be blnmed for that accomplishment. They are Ndtlie C'lcotte, one of the hulling veterans of the game, and Lefty Williams. No one can figure how they hae dune it, but figures -peak for them lelvcs. The Sox have won fifty-four games and thiitj -the ictorici hae been turned in by the pair of peggers. Cicottc won his nineteenth game on Thursday nnd 'Williams has amassed a total of sixteen. That's pretty good work for so early in the season, and it looks as if the pair of stars will estab lish a record. It also proves that Gleaon is a tegular mnn.igir and knows how to handle his hired men. To get by with onlj two pitchers is quite an accom plishment, and if jou look hard Jou will find that no one else is doing it. Kerr nnd Fnber turn in n victory now and then, but cannot be depended upon. Cicottc nnd "Williams are the aces, and if the) continue to deliver the goods (ileason will be entitled to wear the Mitaolo Man's crown. With one more good pitcher like Scott Terry or Carl Majs the Chicago club would have an easy time in copping the Hag. At pi cent they are being annoyed by Cleeland and Detroit, the latter being the most dangerous. Hughe) Jennings hns a good ball club this jeur far better than it looked early in the season. The pitchers nre performing well, which is strange nnd unusual, and the sluggers are slugging better than eer before. Three members of the club Cobb, Veaeh and riagstead arc among the first five lending hitters, and their work is keeping the team in the race. D ETROIT is the dark horse in the Uaguc this year and trill bciu ' T n out for supremacy before another month rolls hy. Packard, With Four Wins, Leads Millies' Pitchers . rn ALSO have some star pitchers on our local lub, but it doesn't take much to be a star here. Gene Packard is the VI'.KY hot on the Phils and stands out above the others with FOl'H victories. Meadows, Itixcy and George Smith have scored two each and Ilrndley Hogg departed from the maiden class a week ago when he twirled his initial triumph over the St. Lose Cards. However, Gnvvy Cravnth is handling the dingers as dingers should be handled, and it would not he at all surprising if some guy linMicd the season with eight or nine wins. The poor A's continue to struggle along, losing battles by close scores and making great records for the opposing clubs. Jing Johnson has raptured fire conflicts in some way or other nnd Perry and Itogers are next with three each. Jack Naylor is the losing champion of the unhep-e, having dropped bis last nine games, which exceeds the National record, held b) I'lmer Jacobs, by one. Allen Sothoron, of the Browns, was on the verge of startling the circuit when he won nine games in a row, but flopped ami took the count on Thurs day when Eddie Cicottc grabbed a ten-inning fuss by the narrow margin of 1 to 0. Sothoron is a bear for work and the best hurler on Jimmy liurke's payroll. He has been going exceptionally well, but has n bad habit of taking things easy when the game apparently is on iee. Still, no one can blame a guy for not taking his work seriously if he has to piny in St. Lose. Good hurlers nre mighty scarce this )car and big league clubs nre willing to pay any amount of coin for likely looking prospects. If a cn'-oued veteran is placed on the market he can write his own ticket. John McGraw will dig deep into the bankroll for a high-class (linger. He has offered ever) thing, including the Polo Grounds, for Lppa Ithey, but there is nothing doing. I!ig Eppa remains with us. LFOirrrA'A'.

Alien Scribe Condoles With Connie rpiIE terrible work of our A's is getting to be a joke in the large circuit nnd causing considerable comment on the outside. Every one knows Connie is doing his best to get n team together, is spending money and giving tryouts to every athlete who can wear spiked shoes, and are wondering why some thing doesn't happen. The following editorial in the current issue of Sporting News throws some light on the subject: "Since baseball conditions in Philadelphia are for the moment the sub ject of much discussion, let us take up briefly the case of the lowly Athletics !ven more lowly than the Phillies and their puzzled and distressed manager and mentor, Connie Mnck. Connie may say he is not ill-tressed, that he is topeful and all that, but since he must have some human element in his make-up we have a right to believe he is, whether he will admit it or not. "Connie's situation furnishes a epiite positive answer to tlioe who prattle that anybody can build up a winning ball club if he will just spend the money for players. Connie has been spending money, or the equivalent of it, for four or five years now, and he hasn't built up any winner, so far as )ou can notice it. His ball club is a worse aggregation today by far than it was when lie started all over again after the break up of his champions. "His admission i.s plain that the colleges and lots arc bare when he holds on to players who are not of major league class and have shown it. or makes swaps to get his former players back, or tnkes discards from rival clubs. For it cannot be said Mack does not know, ns well as any man can, a hall player In the making when he sees one, even if he is fooled now and then. "Slack's sad experience proves that neither money nor brains ran guar antee n winner if the builder doesn't have a good share of the breaks. Prob ably no manager ever had such bunched luck ns Mack had when he picked up Collins, Baker, Harry, Mclnnis et al., but that sort of luck in bunches, like lightning, doesn't strike twice in the same place, not in the lifetime of even as old a man as Mack. "Mack may put on a semblance of optimism if he will, but to even iiis best yell wishers there's mighty little slher lining to the situation. ' J it AM' the tuck he teems to have these days is that past reputation " joccj Aim from- the blasts of the critics tcfro can spend money i and build up icinnlnp ball teams between puffs that and the fact that t the other fellow in Philadelphia has been selected as the target." May Lure Wilde From England TOC CUTCII, manager of Patsy Wallace, believes he has a chance to lure J-' Jimmy Wilde from the old homestead in England and exhibit him in Phila delphia 'against his protege. He hag cabled his challenge to the flyweight champion nnd expects an early reply. "If Wilde accepts my offer of $."000 and two round-trip tickets," says ' Doc, "the bout will be held in Philadelphia nnd will be promoted and managed tby Leon Rains. Mr, Itains has had great success in the boxing game and knows bow to stage shows properly. He will be the man to take care of the match." Boston Not Anxious to Lose Mays HAlUir FRAZEE evidently isn't very anxious to relieve the Red Sox of the burden of carrying Carl Mays. If he really wanted to get rid of the "tander-hand pitcher, he would have no trouble in doing it. Jlnji is a high grade performer and his services would bo appreciated by any dub iu either . .circuit., Hut Frazce wants tin; New York Yanks to give him either Bob Bhawkey, the ex-Athletic hurler, or Herb Thormahlen, plus a fortune,, TlRat doesn't suit the' New Yorkers.

All rights reserved. SIX HIGH SPOTS OF AMERICANSPORT No. 5 The Passing of Battling Nelson TIIEItr mny have been more dramatic ring battles where championships passed, but for sustained fury and unadulterated lighting the battle at Point Richmond, Calif., where Rattling Nelson lost the lightweight championship to Ad Wolgast, furnishes one of the bloodiest nnd most strenuous chapters in the annals of pugilism. Technically, Wolgast won inthc fortieth round by a knockout. But the Hrgewlsch Dane never was down once during the fight. He was pressing for ward, blindly, instinctively, with both of his eyes closed and his face "beaten into the semblance of a pounded raw beefsteak, when Referee Kddio Smith stepped between the struggling men, pushed Nelson back to his corner and raised Wolgast's hands. Nelson sprang up from the stool which his seconds had placed in the corner for him and tried to protest. As he tried to spenk the blood gushed from his mouth. He was so badly battered that he could not frame a word. All that he could do was glare from the slit of one eye and growl like a wolf mortally hurt. There were five rounds more to go, for in those days they permitted forty-five-round bouts in California, but even the hard losers who had bet on Nelson did not want it to go any further. Lrtng before the referee had decided upon his act of mercy the fight crowd was clamoring that it be stopped. The passing of Nelson as a champion was characteristic of the fighter. His method of fighting was simple. He took nil thnt the other man could give. Then when his antagonist became bewildered because the Dane did not drop under blows that would have battered down n dozen others, Nelson waded In and finished him. 'hJDLSOy aicays moved fonrard, never backieard. He icas press- is ing forxeard ichen he lost his title. He was a fighter, pure and simple.

You will recall that Nelson nnd (inns fought three times. In the first battle, at Cold field, Nov., Cans won on a foul. In their second meeting, nt San Francisco. J Nelson knocked the negro boxer out. A third fight was arranged, though the backers' of ,Gans knew that th negro had developed tuberculosis. Despite the fact that he was rapidly wast ing away, Cans kept Nelson away for twenty rounds nnd dropped exhausted in the twenty-first. It was in the seventeenth round of this fight that the negro landed the blow which is snid to have been the beginning of the end for Nelson. Just a second before the bell rang Cans stepped back. Nelson's left arm was up raised. Cans shot a short jolting punch, the sort of punch with which he had knocked out mnny n lightweight, into Nelson's ribs. Those near the ring say that the "Durable Dane" squealed with agony. When the Dane went back to his comer it is claimed that for once in his life he felt himself beaten. His seconds had to tell him that the negro was in far worse condition in order to get him to go back so the story goes. MELSOX afienrard admitted that that punch broke several of his " ribs and that it hurt more than any beating he had ever re ceived in his life. Nelson Meets His Master WHEN the fight at Point Richmond was under way Nelson began to receive the usual punishment. His face was chopped rnw and one of his eyes closed. Rut those who had watched the "Durable Dane" would not believe that he was to be beaten down nt last. His face began to become more un sightly and Wolgast kept clawing nt him like n young wildcat, for it wa more like a jungle battle, that fight, than an encounter between humans. Somewhere about the twentieth round Nelson rasped a punch acrosi Wol gast's kidneys nnd the contender fell to the mat. It looked ns though Wolgast, like the others, had become tired of beating the "Durable Dane" and that -he was about to drop. Rut in the next round Wolgast came back as vigorous as ever and the crowd began to wonder whether or not Nelson had found his match at the game of slugging. The crimi.au rounds went on. Nelson always pressing forward, with Wol gast planting those tired fists into the battered fnce. It became impossible, tragic, and the most hardened of fight followers, the believers iu buttles to the finish, began to moan, "Stop it!" EVEX to this day .Yd " never could hurt inc. 'clsan protests: "He did not hurt me. He dans is the only man that ever really hurt He was the urcntcsftinhtweight of them all." BEALS BECKER THIRD Jisi Tiionrn has an average of .. l 1 3 .. 2 !'.
