ny sriCK HALL
MANM3Y TV. PFAHSON has the
M riKht idea for hot'wenther tennis
rUvlnc. He so' on tne ancient theory
f "let (icorer Do It." Onlj- yMter
S.r It happenfd to be Ted Edwards that
fe t. notPOeore. What Tl XM Van
effnt Pearson's kind invitation to
',,, lot of balls Into the net and out
5f bound, enough In fact to give Pear-
,, three-set match In the finals for
the most nlckc(f racquet shaker In
Philadelphia and district. Pearson an
ed the Quaker title onhis home
turf at the Oermantown Cricket Club,
Minhelm. He got the decision over tho
Merlon player fn two sets of 0-4 each
and one of 0-2.
Hv plavlng an easygoing game and
making Kdwards to do a lot of leg work,
rtarson aavs had something in re
mitii which he proceeded to spring on
BfUpponf nt hen he felt the need of a
game or so.
Fawon Volleys Well
Poarson was satisfied to return the
ball and let Edwards do most of the
forcing. The Morion man, after the
first set, tried to carry his play to the
set. but his volleying was badly off and
h lost point after- point by sending
balli into the net on attempts to score
Tilacemfnt from the barrier position.
TMrson went to the net more than Ed
wards and hli efforts usually resulted
in points. His volleying was sure and
his overhead work wbb accurate, the
drltfs being well placed into the corners
and having good pace. ,
Edwards's service was much faster
than Pearson's, but the former lost
nhat advantage his speedy delivery
night have ghen him by serving seven
double faults, threo more of these sure
point-losers than he scored service aces.
Pfarson had only one service nee to
his credit in the three sets, but he also
had only two double faults. Penrson's
delivery, while rather slow, was a high
bounding ball and it was always well
placed in the back of the service court.
This combination gave Pearson plenty
of time to get to the net and take posi
tion when he chose to follow up his
lervicc.
Placements Close
In the matter of placements, Ed
wards had the better of it by one point.
He made 10 clean shots for points,
while Pearson had 18. But tho errors
killed whatever chance Edwards might
have had. He drove into the net 31
times and sent the ball out, of bounds ,19
times, which combined with his seven
double faults, makes a totnl of 77
erron. Against this Pearson hit Into
the net 21 times, drove out 24 times,
ade two doubles for a totnl of 47
errors, thirty less than Edwards made
and therein lies the story of the match.

Excelsior Handicap Has Big
Entry List Track Sure
to Be Slow-
New York, June 14. Aljthough there
will be no Man o Wars or Clcopatras
in the races at thc Jamaica meeting,
which begins this nftcrnoon, the session
promises to be the best of tho year.
Man o'.'War will not rnce ngain until
thc Dwyer Stakes, which will bo de
cided the last day'of thc Aqueduct meet
ing. and Cleopatra probably will
MICA RACES
uotIUe h"-
be seen In action again until she re
turns from Kentucky in the middle of
July. She will be shipped to the Blue
Glass region next week for thc Ken
tucky Oaks.
Man o' 'Wnr came out of his record
breaking performance on Saturday in
perfect trim. He showed no ill effects
of his great race and wns eager to run
jesterday morning when his trniner
took him out for n Httle exercise. After
the Dwyer he will be shipped to Sara
toga. The colt alreadv has earned
SU8.8SQ. nnd Snmucl Riddle, owner,
and Louis Kenstel, his trainer, nro con
fident he will reach the -$200,000 mark
before the end of the- fall in.eetings iu
Mcrjland.
The card offered for thc opening nt
Jamaica this afternoon is the best of
the jenr. More horses have been en
tered than at any time since tho Aque
duct meeting last season. Tho feature
is the Excelsior handicap at one mile
and a sixteenth. Eleven of 'the best
handicap horses in training havo been
nnmed to start, includiug S. C. Till -dreth's
Mad Hatter, Harry Payne
Whitney's Vexatious nnd George D.
Widcner's Lanius. which have not yet
been scon, under silks.
Because of tho heavy rain yesterday
the track is sure to be slow, If not
muddy, and only those which nro par
tial to heavy going Vill have a chance
of success.
Naturalist, the erratic gelding belong
ing to Joseph E. Widener, is In with
122 pounds, nnd probably will be the
favorite. His rialB have been good,
and his one race when he was beaten n
few inches shows that he has lost none
of his great speed-. He likes the mud,
nnd if he can carry his speed over the
long route he probably will be returned
the victor. Lion d'Or is in with 107
pounds, ofld will have a host of fol
lowers. He has competed only in
sprints, but William Hogan. who de
veloped him from n plater into n $20.
000 colt, is confident he can travel a
distance with "the best horses in thc
country.
Boniface, which finished half a
length behind Paul Jones in the Subur
ban after bolting in tho home stretch,
will carry 117 pounds. He is now nt
tho top of his form nnd runs welk in thc
mud. Royce Itolis is tho dark horse in
tho race. If the track is sloppy, he will
have tobo given serious consideration,
for ho will shoulder only 100 pounds,
and with that weight is dangerous
against any field.
Becnuso of the mud Corn Tassel un
doubtedly will be withdrawn nnd Hil
dreth will depend on Cirrus nnd Mad
Hatter, both of which hao been going
exceptionally well In their work.
In the Richmond Handicap, nt five
and n half furlongs, twenty-three high
class horses are named to start, includ
ing the great Lucullltc. Every horhc
enterea in tnis event nas tnown speed
enough In races or'trlals to warrant thc
belief that he has a good chance of vic
tory. It is an open raco. with Irish
Dream. Peter Piper, Old Rosebud and
Lucullltc having the most friends.

Park and Washington, and he has
yet to visit Chicago and St. Loull,
On this date a year ago Ruth had

He got his seventeenth circuit slam

FLEISHER WINS ANOTHER
Defeats Camden City In a Sunday
Game, 7 to 4
Eddie Lusk's Flelsher Tamers added
one more victory to their string yester
day when they defeated the Garden City,
7-4, before a crowd -of 1500 fans on
their new field, Twenty-sixth and Reed
streets.
Tho big feature of the game was the
heavy hitting of Fossett and Manion,
who each found Hauck for two hits.
Fossett received his usual applause,
having become a favorite with the down
town fans, for they look for a hit each
time the little "Soccer" star comes to
the bat. Downs not only pitched a
winning 'game, but also touched the
opposij pitcher for three clean hits.

A'S FINALLY HII
LEAGUE'S CELLAR
Mackmon Change Positions
With Tigors After Sunday
Dofoat in Detroit
Detroit, Midi., .Tune 14. Detroit nod
our A's exchanged places In tho Ameri
can League standing. The Tigers
crawled out of last place and shoved the
Athletics Into the bottom position yes
terday. Tho Mackmen fought valiantly and
thc Tigers had to go nearly ten Innings
to lift themselves out of tho cellar.
They turned the trick by a score of -1
to 3, the same count by which they won
Saturday.
In all fairness it must be admitted
that Detroit won rightfully. Khmke
had quite n margin on Perry In the
pitching end of the argument, and on
top of that the Athletics' three runs
were not earned. For n time thT?c
three markers looked sufficiently large
to win, and it wns not until the eighth
that the Tieers hrnkn through with suf
ficient force to tie the count, nlthough
they had been doing more damage to
Perry than the Mackmen could do to
the angular Khmke.
The three runs all came In tho third.
Perry had filed, when Dykes got In the
way of a pitched ball with thc count
three and two on him. Thomas fouled
to Ellison. With two gone, Dykes
stole second. Strunk walked. Walker
hit an easy grounder to Young that the
keystone sackcr kicked away and re
covered too late to get the runner.
Griffin here hit tho first of three
Texns leaguers that he dropped into
right during the afternoon. The ball
fell between Young and Hcllman,
Dykes and Strunk scoring and Walker
reaching third. Griffin and Walker
worked a Successful double steal, Tilly
counting.
That was as far as the Athletics got
with Ehmke. Ho was invincible nftcr
that.

MANY a smoker thought the limit had been reached. '
Could cigarettes be improved? We thought so. We
knew there was room at the top for a better cigarette.
But it would have to be something entirely new.
And it is it's Spur.
An original blend that makes the rich Oriental tobaccos richer by pleasing
combination with Burlcy and other home-grown tobaccos. A new method of
rolling the satiny imported papier by crimping, instead of pasting. A smart
"brown-and-silvcr" package, with triple wrapping to keep Spurs fresh.
Spur offers you tip-top quality at rock-bottom price. What do you say?
