PHILLIES AGAIN FALL INTO HOMELY HABITSm To Join Reds Cravathians "Fliv" in Dual Display With Cardinals and Drop Into Only Dry Cellar in Sportdom PERRY LEAVES TOWN By EDWIN .1. POLLOCK fTUIE I'hlli cnmc liomc ji.tcrla,v nnd fell Into homely linbit. Tlipy mnde more- errors limn Trotky nml more mtatnkes than Henry I'nril on trlnl. They made n flivver out of two ball Knmes nnd skidded to the only dry cellar among sportinE men. The Cards crabbed both ends of the dual dWplny, copping the first, 4-2, nnd the second. (!-3. Tt can't be snld that the return of the Cravathlani wan dull. It wns very Impressive, but didn't make the correct kind of an Impression. The Phils looked like the team of two months nRo, but there nre bad days in the history of every ball club nnd yesterday was one of those days for the Maker aRureRation. Better things arc expected in the second dual battle against the Hickcy boys this afternoon. The Phils were charged with seven errors during the nfternoon of pafctim ing, nnd three of them were com mitted by little Davy Bancroft. Kvery time Davy goes wrong the whole club seems to crack with him. But thp days are few In which Bancroft is not at his best. The twin lacing ptlt Oawy nnd his pals back Into the tall-end position by a two-point margin. They had been out of the cellar since the first of the month. Tragessor Loses Head WALTER TRAC.KSSOIt Impressed upon the fans the fact that he pos sesses one of the best throwing arms In captivity and also one of the best tem pers in the league. Sometimes it's great to be nble to jump up nnd down and hoop and howl and get everything off your chest when you're n bit peeved, but most times It's nuite expensive Trngcssor discovered this yesterday when It was too late. In the fourth inning of the .second game Hornsby and McIIenry tried the double steal and got away with it. Tra gessor protected Harrison's decision on Hornsby at the plate and to show that he objected he flung the ball with a lot of speed and plenty of control right Into the home rubber. It was a great chuck, for it bounced high in the nir nnd then rolled to the pitcher's box, thus giving McIIenry plenty of time to score. Previously Walter ' demonstrated his strong-arm stuff by throwing to center field when Hornsby wus stealing second. Walter Is there with the arm. Perry Joins Fmnhvllle , fTIHE latest concerning Scott Perry J- and Tom Rogers, the two prodigal pitchers, is that they have packed their toothbrushes and collars and departed for I'rnnkvillc, Pn where they arc going to play with n semi-pro club. Frankvillc is right outside of Pitts burgh. Phil Haggerty, the manager of the Nativity Club, tried to hold them in Philadelphia, but when the news of their refusal to go with the A's reached Frankville, an attractive offer was made to them over the who. According to a dispatch from St. Looie, Connie Mack claims that both Rogers and Perry quit by request. The tall leader is quoted ns saying that he suspended them indefinitely for violation of the training rules. Ue intimated that the suspension would not be lifted this season.

Instead of asking you to choose your Suit, for the sake of a small saving, from a paltry few garments that for one reason or an other would not move of their own accord, we invite you to make your selection from a complete and unrivaled stock of over 11,000 garments at savings of $5 to 20. We are able to save you such a substantial sum on your purchase here because: (1st) Our huge outlet through our 3 big metropolitan shops. (2d) Our foresight in having made our pur chases far in advance of the customary time devoted to their selection by mer chants, and (3d) By operating our stores on the principle of volume sales at minimum profits. This is a time when sensible buying such as you would do here means more in real economy to you than all the sales that can, possibly be launched these days. , Summer Suits at Big Savings j In Palm Bench, Priestley Mohair.
