A'S UPSETTING DOPE
OF LEAGUE LEADERS
Three Out of Si From Sox
and Two Out of Three
From Tigers, Is Macks'
Trouble-Making Record
PITCHING STAFF GOOD
By EDWIN J. POLLOCK
SOME centuries hro n rooth-sn.vins
inKc broke out 'with the Ptatemmt
that it is the llttlp thinj? in life that
count. Take, f instance, that bit of
hay that ruined the camel's back. Also
take V instance our A's.
The A'b aren't exactly ruininc any
body, but for such down-nnd-oiiten.
surli mites in the world of bis baseball,
they're causing a heap of trouble. The
Mackless Mackmcn rcnehed up from the
depths nnd slapped Kid Oleason on both
checks of his pcnnant-brlj?ht face. Are
they Roing to turn Daniel nnd tame the
lion that faces them in Tlxcr skin to
day? If Mr. C. Maelt and his little Mack
lets were to battle the White Rox and
the Bengals on their own soil throuRh-
out the entire flas season they would
be stnndinc somewhat higher than the
position which now graces or disgraces
them.
The A's have come to blows with the
Sox six times this season at Shibe Park
nnd hnvc won half the number of games.
They have exchanged scratches on three
occasions with the Tigers on the home
lot and have scored two decisions. This
gives them an average of .5G3 against
the two lending clubs of the American
League. Not so bad for tailcnders!
What?
Soft and slow music is in order when
the record of the Macks in the homes
of the Comiskey nnd Navin clubs is
mentioned. The A's have dropped six
out of seven .in Detroit this year nnd
the same number in Chicago.
Kinney Hero
WALTER KINNEY, the Texas
tamer, made the White Sox roll
over nnd play dead in the opening
gamo yesterday, although it took him
thirteen innings to gnin a 5-1 decision.
Kinney pitched great ball. lie stood
the Oleason gangsters on their ear
with his curve ball and he blinded them
with his fast one. Only seven b'tnglcs
were made off his southpaw shoots and
besides he contributed two hits and
three runs, the last of which was the
deciding marker of the encounter.
The A's got splendid pitching in the
series with the Sox with the exception
of the second game yesterday, when
the Chicago clubbers nicked Hogers and
recruit Martin Kcrchcr for nine safe
blow. Win Noycs made his bow for
the first time since 1017 and held the
westerners hitless in four frames.
Scott Perry let the Chieagoans down
with tour hits in the first game on
Thursday, but lost. Roland Naylor
hurled the second half of the bill, and
although he was hit hard, Jie was effec
tive with men on and won. If Connie
continues to get such twirling he's going
to win a number of ball games before
the 'season ends. As it, is the A's are
creeping close to .300, a remarkable
percentage for the A's.
Noyes Will Help
WIN NOYES proved conclusively that
he is ready to take his regular turn
in the box. The lean, right-hander,
who left the A's fiat in 1017 and joined
Uncle Sam's staff, put tho muffler on
Chicago clubs when he took the hill in
the sixth inning of the second game.
For three innings he put tho pale hose
bunch down In one -two -three order.
Eddie Collins walked in the ninth, but
got no farther than second. Edward
was the only Gleasonito' to reach first
in the four innings Noyes performed.
Kercher went as good in his two in
nings as a recruit can be expected to
show in his big league debut. The for
mer Rochester semipro is a big lad with
a good hook and a fairly good fast ball.
There is a chance that he may develop
into a regular, but he needs a lot of
polishing.
H0RNSBY A GIANT?
Star Card Traded to McGraw, Is
Report In New York
New York, Aug. 0. A persistent
rumor here today is to the effect that
the Giants had just completed one of
the biggest trades of the year with the
St. Louis Cardinals.
The report had Zimmerman, Doyle
nnd King being traded by the New York
club to St. Louis for Rogers Hornsby,
the star third baseman.
The report could not be confirmed,
and It was said that Manager McGrow
denied the trade. '

REDS IMPOSE
MOWS, PHIL ACE
Cravath Determined to Stop
Leaders and Will Use His
Latest Mound Star
PACKARD HAD HARD LUCK
Cincinnati, Aug. 0. Cravath'a
merry men poiitivelv decline to be
downhearted, nnd declare they will fry
the Reds in butter for n Saturday
Carnival. Lee Meadows is to pitch, and
Mr. Meadows feels powerful vigorous,
suh, pow'ful vigorous.
The Philadelphia players savs that
tho reason for Mcadows's wonderful
change in pitching form Is the easiest
thing in the world to understand the
way Cravath is guiding him. At St.
Lotus Rickey made Meadows warm up
and work hard every day in the bull pen
nad nim breaking his neck with labor
and when it came his turn to pitch
he was positively all in.
Crnvnth does not ask him to even
touch a ball between his games,
and the slender, not overly muscular
Meadows can respond to his regular call
in splendid condition and with a won
derful amount of steam.
It's just another tribute to the hon
esty of baseball, this determination of
the Phils to beat the Reds, for in
their hearts Cravath's men hate the
Oiants nnd want nothing so much as
to see them overthrown. Yet they will
go in nnd, back of Meadows, they are
extremely likely to spoil a perfectly
good Saturday for the Cincinnati crowd.
The" game yesterday did not convince
the Phils that the Reds were their
masters, though they admit that Moran
lias a grand ball club. Fact is, the
Cravath crowd arc rather of the opin
ion that they themselves arc pretty
classy, nnd they could do a world of
things if the race went 1.14 games
instead of 140 not win any pennants,
of course, but shove themselves up
at least two more notches in the race.

MAKES DEBUT IN EAST
By JAMES S. CAROLAN
A STRANGER from the. shores of the
" distant Pacific will bo with us
shortly. Rut this son of tho Golden
West Is no pacifist. He earns his live
lihood through his ability to wield the
padded mitts. For the first time in his
young life he will exhibit in the dis
tant Hast, many miles from home and
friends.
But this does not shock the gams
little youth. He met the best the East
had to offer in a fistic way less than
twelve months ago nnd he stayed the
regulation four rounds. That was
when Benny Iieonnrd was introduced
to the sons of California. The native
son was crowned king in his section
and tho natives believe him un
beatable. Leonard earned the verdict but it
wasn't nny walkawny. The champion
had just completed a four days' jour
ney and with less than two days to be
come acclimated, climbed into the ring
against the game Californian. The na
tive son was accustomed to tho coast
conditions and was intimate with the
four-round game. He gave Benny n
nice little argument during the limited
engagement.
Benjamin Impressed
Joe Benjamin, the pride of 'Frisco,
made such an impression with Billy
Gibson, Leonnrd's manager, that he
was invited to make a tour of the east.
Benjamin declined at the time but said
he would occept the invitation when he
believed he was ready to meet the high
class boys developed along the Atlantic
seaboard.
Benjamin now Is in New York, work
ing daily with Leonard. First he met
him as ri ring foe, he learned plenty in
that; battle with the greatest figbtrr of
Tijs ounces In this age, ftd he .did not

Five Club Owners Turn Down

V
SESSION MAY BE DROPPED
..
It is beginning to look ns If the
meeting of the American League club
owners which wns called nt the Invi
tation of Colonel Kuppert to discuss
the Carl Mnys suspension and injunc
tion In New York on Monday would
not materialize. The five clubs, which
President Ban Johnson said had pro-'
tested against the trade of Mays front
Iloston to New York nre apparently
determined to back up the big boss of
the league. ,
The first indication that the club own
ers would refuse to rneet here was a
telegram sent by Hen Shibe, president ot
the Athletics. He wired.: "Will not '
he present at the meeting Monday,"

of the Chicago White Sox wired his acO

Mr. Comiskey said he would
I Louis. An interesting phwe of the "sit-
nation cropped up yesterday when Sec
retary Willis Johnson of the St. Louis
Ilrowns said that as far as he knew tho
St. Louis club did cot protest to John
son against New York trying to get
Mnys. This it a contradiction of John
son's assertion.
If the club owners nre not disposed
to go to New York to discuss the Mays
case, the attorneys for the New York"
I club will go ahead and nk for a per
manent injunction on Tuesday in J'art
I of the Supreme Court.
