Cravath's Hopefuls Surprise Themselves and Many
Others by Waging Winning War on Clubs of West.
Reds Have Three Double-Headers With Giants
1&
m
By nOHERT W. MAXWELL,
tport. IJllior I'.irnlnc rubllc Ledger
Copyright, 1910. bv Public LtAoer Co.
A FTKU n highly successful Invasion of the West, our Willi have parked
" their bacsaRc on the home playground and tliii nfternoon uill play host
to the visiting Curds from St. Loe. The Cravathlnn hand of bulb tosicn
has more than made good on alien soil and can expert a warm greeting from
the local folks. A double-header will be perpetrated this afternoon, nnd the
faithful fish ean stick around for three or four hours on only one war tax.
Pretty soft for the fish.
Cravath took a gang of tail-enders out West with him a couple of weeks
ago and startled the world by cleaning un the first dories in Ht. I.noio. This
was entirely unexpected, but wlnn the Phils grabbed three out of four from
the Cubs the fans were resigned to their fate. They were ready for nnj thing.
Then came the clean-up in 1'lttsburgh, which made one believe that the club
wan invincible, but the Cincinnati disaster came in ns n finale nnd ruined a
flock of perfectly good hopes. However, the tour ended in a blaze of glory
when, after losing three straight to the Iteds, the boys came back, walloped
Hod Eller and copped the final game of the set on Monday. Therefore, the
home-town bojs are In the midst of a winning streak and will attempt to make
It healthier today.
' Just take a look at the scores of the alien conflicts, eight of which
resulted In victories and four Ilooles. Here is the dope:
Phils, 3; St. Louis, 1. Phils, 2; Pittsburgh, 0.
? Phils, 11; St. Louis, 4. Phils, .",; Pittsburgh, 2.
I'hlli, 2; Chicago, 1. Ilcdi, 4; Phils, 2.
rhlls, 4; Chicago, 3. Keds, 10; Phils, 1.
Chicago, 7; Phils, 1. Hods, ; Phils, 2.
' Thlls, 3; Chicago, 2. Phils, 5; Keds, 3.
Since several new faces hae boon introduced in the line-up, the Phils
If have taken on a new lease of life, and outside uf the Cincinnati series performed
" better than any club in the league. Cravath has made another swap in cx
k changing Whitted for Stengel, and it remains to be seen if the trade will help
the club. As both Whitted and Stengel hae been dl.ssntNticd with the teams
on which they were plajing, it looks as If they would play some good ball
. for their new boss.es.
ACVORDIXG to rtportt, hoicever, Casey nnd (Icargc have formed a
I' " holdout league, and are demanding more money before signing
new contracts, XAm might be considered a double holdout, but to us
it has every appearance of a double itcal.
Western Clubs Play on Eastern Soil
A LL of the western clubs play in the Kast today nnd the real low down on
J the pennant dope will be obtained before the end of the week. This
j morning the Reds have a lead of four and n half games oier the (Jiants, with the
Cubs coming strong. The New Yorkers made a miserable showing in the West,
E cracking terribly when the race became close and their lead was questioned.
Fourteen games were played and only five were won. That's pretty sad for
a pennant-contending nine. Cincinnati had the best record, with the Phils
second nnd Iloston third. The grando'ipc on the tour follows:
Cincinnati 10 4 .714 Chicago 0 fl .r00
Phils 8 4 .(107 Pittsburgh 5 8 .385
Boston 7 B .545 New York 5 9 .337
llrooltljn 7 0 .538 St. Louis 3 0 .230
t There you have it in real rigger, and you Know figgers never lie. Looking
over the list, it will be discovered that St. Lose won three games, two of which
were grabbed from the falling Ciiauts. That Nu't a nice way to treat the men
of McXSraiv, but toinebod) had to beat then, -o why not St. Lose? The
Braves also did some nice playing, and the Cubs, strengthened by llcrzog and
Bobortson, are (.limbing rapidly. Watch that ball club.
New York will not have an easj time of it on the home sojourn. This
afternoon a double-header will be plnjcd with Pat Moran and his Iteds, all
of which has caused excitement and perturbation in our city. It will be a
pair of the most critical games of the season, and after they are played double
bills will be staged on Thursday and Friday. Sit games in three dajs between
the pennant contenders are enough to muke the most dispusslonatc fan arouse
himself and take the air.
JII0RAS'8 pitchers hare been going good, so that gives him the
edge. ilcOraic has Barnes to depend on the others being
in and outers mostly out. In addition, the Itcds are bursting the.
bulb consistently, tehile the fixants are not hitting in early season
form. Perhaps it is because the Cineinnatians are using the new set
of bats presented by Frank Poth. Frank says base hits cannot help
out fly from that personally selected assortment.
Connie & Company Depart From City
"lONNIE and his Mackerels have departed from our midst to engage in
deadly conflict with all comers. At this stage of the game the A's care not
whom they meet. They never get nervous, whether they are stacked up against
the league leaders or guardians of seventh place. They have been 20,000
leagues under the league so long that they are accustomed to their surroundings.
At this time of the year it always becomes necessary to peer into the
future and distribute a few words about next year and the prospects. Now
we can speak of the coming season, and although we refuse to predict anything,
we hope Connie will have better luck.
Mack is the iron man of baseball. He Is one of the gamest losers the
national sport ever has seen and gives truth to that famous saying that a
man may be down, but he's never out. Connie has worked hard to give
'Philadelphia a good ball club. He has tried out hundreds of players, spent
real money for the privilege and never has become discouraged. This year he
had hard luck, but he is up and at them just the same, lie has been
purchasing players by the dozen and making plans for the 1020 campaign.
He liked the Atlanta club so well that he will have eleven athletes from
that city here after September 1 for a tryout. He also has purchased Zlnn,
a pitcher from the Texas League.
Zinn should be a good heaver. In 1017 he was with the Phils, but devel
oped a sore arm and was chased back to the bushes. He pitched several
no-bit games, was effective in all of his battles this year and apparently has
recovered, Jim Wolfe, former ccout of the Phils, discovered Zlnn, and said
recently that he again was ready for the big show. Ira Thomas looked him over
and after a favorable report Connie had him sign the papers.
Zinn has lots of speed, but when he was with the Phils could not make
any -overhand throws. By that I mean he could not raise his arm above the
shoulder. Pat Moran liked him, but at that stage of the gume bad no use
for a .cripple. Let's hope Zlnn comes back strong.
fOXNIE has been up against it for pitchers this season, and if he

First Hundred Years Are the Hardest
, rpHB first hundred years are the hardest, especially in the boxing game.
, - After a century the sport of the padded mitt finally came Into its own in
Philadelphia, and on Monday night all attendance records were broken at the
Phils' park. Never before has such a vast throng turned out, and it proves
--conclusively that boxing is a major sport here,
s ' Philadelphia fans are getting the best talent in the world end the
.' promoters are not taking their bankrolls for tickets. The prices are reasonable
' twd every customer gets a run for his money. Had lant Monday night's show
i ' ; keen held in New York, the tickets would have sold as high as $15 for the
, bwt seals.
The record for receipts was not broken. The Kilbane-Leonard bout drew

will be an eighteen-hole preliminary
qualifying round. The sixty-four low
est .cores will engage in the regular
qualifjing round on Monday, playing
thirty-six holes. From then on the
tournament will proceed in the regular,
the finals coming on Saturday, August
23.
The first golfer to win the American
title twice was 11. J. Whigham, On
wentsia Club, Chicago. He was not
a home bred, but managed to capture
a couple of our titles in 1800 and 1SU7.
Whigham won his first American
championship at Shinnecock Hills,
L. I., and his second at Whcaton,' III.
Other players who have won the title
more than once arc Walter .7. Travis,
who captured the event in 3000, 1001,
100;i. Itobcrt A. Gardner, the famous
Yale pole vaultcr, won twice 1009 and
1015. H. C. Cgan was also victorious
on a couple of occasions 1004 and
1005.
Woodland, conoror of Itay and Var-
don; Jerome P. Trovers, I pper Mont

amateur title; Robert A. Oardner, Chi

be eliminated from American League
baseball.
It is believed that President Johnson
will be stripped of much of his power
when ho appears before the. board to
morrow. It is certain that the board
will lift the suspension of Carl Mays.
Charles A. Comiskey is still con
fident that an nmicable agreement of
some sort will come out of the fracas.
He believes that Johnson can be made
to sec the poor judgment of antagoniz
ing the three wealthiest clubs in the
circuit over a questionable matter of
discipline, nnd that by the use of some
honey a great deal more can be gained
than by the spilling of any more vine
gar. A dispatch from Chicago yesterday
said James Dunn hadn't received his
invitation to the meeting as jet. The
invitation was sent from this city
Tuesday by telegraph and by registered
mall.
And eho the iccll-knoum bally Reds
Are meeting in a bally yearn
To tear each other into threads.
The Cracking Process
IT IS not always safe to nssume, a newcomer into the championship class II
destined to crack with n loud roar under the growing strain.
We recall back In 100C what the White Sox, who started from seventh
place late in July and fought their way to the top -with nineteen straight wins,
were touted to blow wide open nt stated intervals.
At tho windup they wcro still going strong enough to beat tho nil-star
Cubs In four games out of six.
Again in 1014 you may recall the varied predictions built around the
expected explosion of the Boston Braves.
They were going to crack under the strain about three times a day. But at
the finish they had enough left to beat the Mnckmcn four straight games.
The Phillies of 101C were nlways going to crack but they never did. The
Dodgers of 1010 were destined to detonate but they never did, cither. Assum
ing that the Iteds intend to blow apart at the stated interval is merely diving
toward a guess. Their rise has been no part of a fluke.
JJOTBINQ out great baseball U going to keep them back.
How Pat Operates
SOME seasons ago when Chief Bender had switched from, the Athletics to
the Phillies, we asked the noted Chippewa what he thought of Pat Moran
as a manager.
"Pat's a bird," remarked the Chief. "He's an easy boss when you give
him all you've g6t, but you can take it from mo he's one rough talker when you
don't If you treat Pat right, he'll treat you even better. But if you don't,
he'll treat you even worse."
"Before the Whistle"
SIR: Are there any moments "just before tho whistle" or the gun that
hold the compact tension and agony generally contained In the last few
hours before an important track event?
Usually a sleepless night precedes a day of torment. Little appetite for
breakfast, a nervous, solemn morning, no nppctlte for luncb and a gono feeling
from then on until the race. The climax comes when some one calls out "Last
call for the mile!" Then a numbness around the knees and the feeling that
one could be bought for a very low figure. Finally the gun and then the world
restored to its proper balance. "ONE WHO HAS SUFFERED."
Where?
VrpHH Irish," reports a contemporary, "hare apparently lost their oM grip
- on the game."
Patrick Moran, John J. McGraw, Hughey Jennings, Kid Gleason, Miller
Huggins it's better than an event bet that n pair of them will be hooked up
in the next world series.
From Another "Sufferer''
What doth it profit a guy
To drive like a fine machine;
To lay each long approach
t With a backtpin on the gretnj
And then icirA par in tight
Just as you ttart to gloat,
To putt and putt and putt
Till you sound like a motorloatt ,
L. S. J7. .
THE job of winning thirty games for successive seasons wIHjjow have tO'b
taken up by a newcomer. Alexander's last chance has faded Into the bosky
dell, and he was the sole pitphcr left with a shot at the new mark a mark
which no modern pitcher has ever beaten.
IN THE forthcoming golf and lawn tennis championships the West has Evans,
Gardner, Johnston, McLoughlin and Griffin to offer against Oulmet, Tra7eri,
Kirkby, Williams, Tiiden nnd Murray the latter being a Western-born player,
a native son, lately transferred to eastern soil.
i
AUSTRALIA may lose the Davis cup next year, but at least she Is goto
to make some one take quite a trip to turn the trick.
