'VTH GREATEST OF ALL HITTERS,
f&ECLARES CRA VA TH, WHO PREDICTS
50 HOMERS THIS YEAR FOR "BABE

""tOU can tell the world tliat'Dabo Ituth Is tlic greatest
k& hitter that ever mink hi Hplkes In front of the homo
'Iate," said (Savvy Cravath last night an he departed from
Bh.be park. The mnunRer of the Phils (who. by the way,
h61d tho National League home-run record) had spent
,'tk'ytry pleasant afternoon, for he had an unusual oppor-
,tun.ty to see some other ball club lose a double-header.
, JThnt was one reason, aud the other was Iluth.
Garvy nevnr had seen the famous rIiisk" play In a big
leajrurf game and wanted to look him over, lie cot an
ycful and was cheering with the other bugs before the
.Kama was over.
'Iluth Is a natural free hitter and takes a terrific cut
V he H." continued Cravath. "He Is absolutely
fearless at the plate and steps into every pitched ball.
He isn't afraid of getting hit he wants to do the hitting.
f)l noticed that Ilabe likes to crowd the home plate
Itetore he swings. He moves his front foot closer to the
rubber, but when he starts his swing hu steps right out.
."Another thing which makes Iluth a wonderful
hitter Is because he lias a great eye. Ho follows
the ball more closely than anybody I ever have cen, and
can tell what It's going to be as soon as it leaves the
pitcher's hands. He proved that in the fourth inning of
yesterday's game. I'erry handed him n fast ba'l on the
outside which he missed, and followed with another speedy
one. Then Scott worked the change of pace.
"Now that In a very hard ball to hit a long distance.
The average batter swings too quickly and either fouls It
for; hits a weak grounder. An exceptionally quick eje Is
" seeded to follow a slow ball, and Iluth wa able to do It.
ftlQ waited until the sphere floated up to the I'lati und
J then knocked It Into the bleachers.
v "How .does he get his power to knock those long
homers? That's easy. He Is standing straight up when
jfho hits. Babe does not stoop over or hunch himself at
rthe plate, but stands naturally and gets his arms, back
ml legs Into the wallop. Iluth also has a perfect wrist
motion, which Is neressary for all distance hitters. It's
; m pleasure to see lnui hit. and I believe he will hit fifty
homers before the season Is over.
"He hits the ball ho hard that it's a mystery that a
lot of Infleldcrs are not seriously hurt. That time he
locked that liner at Terry and It bounced out of Scott's
glove I didn't think the pitcher Would be able to continue.
"Of the two homers yesterday, the one Iluth knocked
Into the center field bleachers was the hardest hit ball.
He hit that on the line, while tho one which sailed over
.the right field wall was lifted over.
tt J7ES, ltuth it the greatest of all sluggers. They
I say he icould knock a thousand homers in the
rhits' park, out don't think the park makes any
difference. If liabe gets hold of one he will knock
it o'.t of A.V1' ball park."
Home-Run Clouting Fracas
YESTERDAY'S double-decker, which, by the way,
was lost by the A's If that's any news turned Into
a home-run clouting contest. Ilalph 1'erkins, who does
not receive $20,000 a year and is not regarded as tho
leading gate attraction of the league, also connected with
a pair of homers, but they were of the common or garden
Tarlety. A homer Isn't a homer unless Iluth hits it.
Our Ilalph. however, Inserted his first clout in the
fourth frame of the opener and led Iluth by five Innings.
Babe played the ball like a one-armed Chinaman and
allowed it to bound into the sunfish. In the eighth stanza
By ROMSRT V. MAXWKLL.
NpoiU Editor Evpnlnr Public Lnlctr
of the second Perkins socked his second circuit slam and
scored a playmate ahead of hlin.
Truck Hannah, the catcher who makes speed standing
In one spot, larruped the pill Into tho much-abused
bleachers and so did Wally Plpp. These clouts also were
perpetrated In the nightcap.
Six home runs In one afternoon Is pretty hefty slug
ging and causes a lot of expense for baseballs. It Is an
unwritten law that the ball never shall be returned In
n case like that. Tho chances are the bleachers will be
parked as long as Iluth Is here, for a gent who pays
fifty -five cents for a scat and leaves with a baseball
valued at Si..r,0 has received big returns on his Investment.
Outside of those homers, the work of the A's was the
feature. They lost there's no doubt about that but It
wasn't until tho last fnulng of each battle that they were
snowed under. Even when Connie's cunning curvers,
meaning Naylor and Perry, took the high dive, the boys
fought hard and threatened to win both ends of the bill.
In the ninth inning of tho eye-opener, after tho Yan
kees had registered six runs and were three ahead of the
home folks, a batting rally was staged and two runs
shoved over the plate. The tying score was on first base
when Perkins came up, but Perk had done enough nnd
fnlled to deliver.
IT HAPPENS IN BEST-REGULATED FAMILIES
.V TIM nightcap, the Mackians registered three
counters in the eighth and one in the ninth, hut
those teere not enough to overcome the lead, jroto
ever, the A's xcent dotcn icith colors flying, if that's
any consolation.
A's Lack Punch in Pinch
YESTERDAY the crowd learned why the A's were In
last place. Not because of poor and indifferent play
lng, not because of bum hitting, but because the players
cannot deliver the punch in a pinch. Time nnd ngaln
two men were on base with one out, and the next two
batters couldn't move them around. This same thing
haH hnppened In games on the western tour. Connie says
his club wastes more hits than nuy other.
Myntt, the kid catcher who was captured In Houston,
Tex., last year, played a good game in right field nnd
aUo delivered some stinging base hits. lie looks like a
pretty good player and will develop rapidly. Whitey
Witt played well at second base In the absence of Jimmy
Dykes, who pulled a tendon in his leg.
a
THE Yanks are here again today for one game.
Also tomorroic. Txeo battles tcill be fought on
Saturday. That gives Ruth four more chances to
add to his record.
Not an Argument for His Umps
THE work of Rill Dlneen, the umpire, must not bo
overlooked. Dill played a monologue yesterday, which
means he called balls and strikes and also umpired the
bases. His partner failed to put In an appearance nnd
Dineen worked alone.
His judgment of balls and strikes was excellent nnd
he did not get into n single jam. In fact, the game was
one of the best umpired we hnve seen this jear. Work
ing a double-header all alono is not a cinch, but Bill got
away with it. More power to him.
THE Phils didn't lose yesterday. No chance today,
either. After a two days' vacation they will open in
Brooklyn tomorrow.

Billy Rocap to Referee
Jackson-Tendler Battle
William H. ("Billy") Itocap,
Kports editor of the Public Ledger,
lia-i been helerted to referee tho eight
round bout between Lew Tendler, of
Philadelphia, aud Willie Jackson, of
New York, when tho pair of light
weight Mars meet nr. the Phillies'
Hall Park July 12. Both Jackson
and Tendler were nt logRcrheads as
to a referee for thti match, but when
Promoter Leon L. llolnn suggested
the tiamo of Mr. Itocap both boxers
readily consented. Mr. Itocap han an
International reputation as au offi
"lal, having refcreed bouts .11 Eng
lnnd, France and .Vmencn. A num
ber of bouts in which he was third
man In the ring were championship
battles.
Wilbur Hubbell. a big right
handed pitcher, who has been working
for John McGraw all season, linn been
purchased from the New York club by
tho Phils. William F. Baker, presi
dent of the Phillies, made this an
nouncement this morning.
Hubbell pitched against Brooklyn
I yesterdny. and In the two innings he
was on the mound no hits were mnde
off his delivery. Bill in a very husky
person nnd has all of the enrmarks or
a good plteher. Down South last spring
he showed up better than any of the
otner rookies, and appeared to nave a
good chance to stick.
However, McGraw had enough
pitchers on the payroll and was glad to
help the tottering staff of the Phils.
Barnes, Toney. Douglas, Nehf, Benton,
Winters and the others are going good,
and Hubbell could be spared.
Last year the big pitcher was with
the Toronto club of the International
League, and won seventeen and lost
eleven games. Ho Is a youngster and
has plenty of tlmo to develop.
President Baker and Mannger
Cravath have been scouring the country
for pitchers since the season opened.
Mr. Baker is ready to spend nny amount
of money for high-class talent, but nono
has been on the market, i.ettlng iiud
bell was a brilliant piece of work. Art
i letcher recommended him highly.
When the Brooklyn club wns plny
ing litre recently President Baker tried
hard to buy a pitcher from Charley
Ebbetts, The Dodgers have ten hurlers
on their staff and Ebbetts was told
to name his own price for any two of
them. This the Brooklyn owner re
fused to do, saying he would stand pat.

Five Leading Batters
in Two Major Leagues
In tho second set botli Williams and
Garland put In n lot of good work after
Johnston nnd Tllden had taken n 3-1
lead, the former pair carrying the score
to 4 -fl and running out tho set, 0-4,
with generally good play, whllo John
ston nnd Tllden frenucntly were not
pulling together and were making
uiincrous errors.
Garland secured the first brace, of
xiunes in the third set, Johnston nnd
Tllden nulcklv eaunllzlng tho score.
Then Gnrland and Williams, playing
brilliantly, captured tne. set.
Garland and Williams forged ahead
3-1 In tho fourth set. Their opponents,
becoming more steady, brought tho score
to three all. Johnston followed th.s up
with n love service game, Garland on
the next piny equalizing the score. Here
Gnrland wns absolutely brilliant, fol
lowing in tho service right to tho net.
The other semifinals In the doubles
wns stopped by rain after the first set.
This set was taken by A. F. R. Kings -cote
nnd J. C. Parko from nnother
British pnir, Dawson and Mavrogorda
to, 0-4.
Mile. Suzanne Lcnglcn, tho tltlo
holder, defeated Mrs. Lambert Cham
bers, winner of the finals In the ladles'
singles, In the challenge round for the
British lawn tennis championship in
ladles singles In straight sets, 0-3,
0-0.
The chief interest In today's play
centered upon this match, largely ow
ine to the fact tho same players, with
Mile. Lenglen ns challenger, met in.
the chnllenge round last year, Mrs.
Chambers losing In the third set of a
hard-fought match.
Mile. Lenglen, who Is frequently
called "the Incomparable Suzanne,"
Introduced the fashion which all the
budding, girlish championship aspirants
are copying this year, of wearing short
frocks nnd sleeveless blouses, cut low at
the neck.
Mile. Lenglen held her title of cham
pion by Immeasurably superior all-
around play. She is a born stylist and
uses plenty of free wrist work In all her
strokes. She scored frequently today
on her overhead 'service, once hitting
tho center line and another tlmo toe
outsido line. Her 'driving, moreover,
was perfect.
She had Mrs. Chambers running from
one side o the court to tho other until
she was breathless, Mile. Lenglen then
driving sharply for tho point down the
line. Furthermore, sho always had a
telling volley in reserve, and a number
of times came to tho net and finished
off the play with a round-arm stroke or
an overnenn kui.
Tho match was over inside of tnrt.
minutes.
The chnllenge round for the British

Is Useful
Beyond the fact that the Cinco
Handy Humidor keeps the cigars
in exceptional condition, holds
them in their natural position and
is more readily opened and closed,
it has many practical uses when
empty.
This i3 a pbint worth remem
bering in these days when every
thing you buy should be useful,
even to the cigar box itself.
