K-' fo I ! Be. IJt Vv '' 10' ' ' '' EVENING PUBLIC IiBPaBR-PttiLADliiLgflrA, SATtTAY, .'AtJGgBiP -14 1920 , : ; &ET US YELP THREE CHEERS FOR THE NEW UNITED STATES GOLFCHAMPION-RAY, RAY, RAY! A'S PLAY LIKE CHAMPIONS, THEN LIKE A THLETICS, ALL OF WHICH ' MEANS A TWIN BILL WENT 50-50 THERE ARE TIMES WHEN MURDER SEEMS JUSTIFIABLE IK THE first game our A's played like champions and In the second they played like the Athletics. All of which is conclusive proof that the Maekmcn won a ball game and then lost one at Shlbc Park yesterday. After a Ioiir absence the home -town boys returned to participate In n double-header and take n fall out of n well-known Jlux entitled Friday the 13th. This was it,. nmi then ncain It wasn't. All we can sec Is a fifty-fifty break, which means the jinx was alive and kick ing when Inst seen in me oan jaru insi nigm. However, the A's put on a swell exhibition In the opener aud with Scott l'erry hnrmoni.lng It was a sweet duct, l'erry was in great form and had every appearance of a champ. His fat hall was faster and his control could not be Improved upon. Only two bad balls were pitched, one to Hooper aud the other to Hcott. Scotty busted It into the left field bleachers for n homer and th! only score for the lied Sox in that game. Perry pitched to only thirty batters aud, outside of Scott, only two reached first bas-e. J mes, on the other hand, waR a trifle wild In spots aud wakened in the final inning just enough to let our boys win the gana The first victory wat perpetrated by the Walkers -Tilly and Frank. Frank scored Tilly in the sixth and Tilly busted a homer with one on in the eighth. Frank played his f'.ist game in Shlbe Tark and was gaicd upon for the first time by the fans. He looks like the best out fielder who has broken into the fast set in years, and already tins proved himself a valuable asset to Connie's club. He is a graceful fielder aud a good hitter. Frank's work in the outfield is deceiving. He appears to be slow, but he is far from that. He runs cuslly, gets off as soon as the ball hits' the bat and is a regular ball hawk. Once he ran over to left field to pull down a Ions drive which Tilly had given up as a bad job. nad the ball fallen safe it would have been n three-bagger. The new man got two hits, one in each game. He looks like a natural slugger, taking a good cut at the ball and having a wrist motion which helps considerably. All of the good iitteVs have strong wrists, if that's any news. rTHE nightcap Xaylor seemed to have more stuff than Terry, out he couldn't get away with it. The Red Sox slammed him off the mound in the fourth and made enough runs to tern o couple of games. So it teas even-Stephen for the day, and that's that. American Race Is Closer OUTSIDE of that pair of ball games, local interest was centered out in Cleveland, where the Yankees won the fourth straight game from the leading Indians. This makes the American League race closer than ever before, with' Cleveland still in first place with .G3f). Chicago second with .031 and the Yankees third with ,C2S. jk looks as if the Cleveland club has hit the skids or fallen into a slump, for a miserable showing was made gainst New York. The Yanks had been socked by St. Louis, Chicago ami Detroit and were slightly demoralized when'they blew into Cleveland. However, the Indians also were that way. and after losing the first game pro ceeded.to drop three more. It was a big surprise, but you never can tell in baseball. If the Indians are in a slump there is no telling when they will regain their stride. Hall clubs arc funny propo- ny ROBERT W. MAXWELL, Sports Editor Evrnlni Public I.fdcrr sltions and can't be figured out. A week ago the lanus were declared out of It, and now they arc being touted as pennant winners. Hut while this is going on the Chicago White Sox arc maintaining a steady gait, winning a lot of ball games and closely pressing the leaders. Only one-half a game separates them from first place and tonight they are likely to bo In the lead. Also, the Cleveland club has a chance to drop to within one polntf third place if defeated today and the White Sox and Yankees win. Hall., players both the A's and the Red Sox are boosting Chicago's chances to win. They say that Oleason lias a tAnooth-working team, good pitching and a lot of game guys in the line-up. They have been trailing the leaders long enough and any day are expected to step out and set the pace for the remainder of the seusou. CLEVELAXD needs pitchers. Its best bets, Itagby and Covelctkie, are overworked, and the others arc not very effective. Chicago has four good men, all going strongly. With only six tcecks to go, the race is getting intcrcsing. Brcnnan No Match for Dempscy THERE seems to be some mix-up in the Dcinpsey Rrenuan fight which Is to be staged In the near future. According to one report, the International Sporting Club will get it. and another has it that Jimmy Dougherty, the Baron of Lelpcrville, has offered SIS.I.OOO for the match Jimmy is a pretty shrewd promoter and It Is not likely that he would offer so much money for a one-sided affair like that. The public is wise in Philadelphia and there isn't n chance to get that much in nt the gate. Dempscy knocked out Brcnnan once, und can do it again. Dempscy is willing to fight, but unfortunately there aro no opponents in the heavyweight division. Fred Fulton waded through tho list until he met Wills, and if Fred can get by Dempscy would have a lead pipe cinch. His match with Billy Miskc in Benton Harbor, Mich., on Labor Day will bo an easy one, for Billy is not as good as two years ago nnd Jack easily beat htm then. Still, jou can't blame the champion for picking up some easy moue.- if the promoters insist on handing him soft op puuruts. THEREFORE, future developments in the Dcmp-sey-Brennan match will be xcatched with in terest. Xew York is ready to stage boring bouts, and perhaps some promoter over there icill put up a fortune for the match. It might draw in Xew York. Phils Playing at .400 Clip OUR Phils emulated the A's in Boston yesterday, split ting a double bill with the Braves. Eppa Rlxey lost the first and Hubbcll won the second. The Cravathians now have an even percentage of .-100, which means they arc winning four out of every ten games played. Not so bad for a tail-cud club. If tl.ey could win live out of t.'n they would be in fifth place, and six out of ten would put :ucii in the lead The American League race is close between three clubs, but in the National five clubs have a good chance, while two hnve ouNide cnances.

Among some of their accomplishments wns the business of fattening batting averages. Frank Walker, Joe Dugan and Frank Welsh nil went into streaks that ended before they readied here yesterday, but nevertheless were strong enough to lift them in the per centage table. Frank Walker was stopped by Stan ley Covelcskie after eight games of safe hitting in which he poked out thirteen hits out of thirtv-three tries for an average of .1104. Joe Dugan was stopped by Jim Bagby after a prosperous streak. During his bat- tiug spree he collected twenty lilts in eleven games for un average of .417. Frank Welsh hit safely in eight games until he stacked up agaiust Ray Caldwell. He got thirteen hits in thirty-five tries for nit nverage of .1571. Tris Speaker still is holding forth In first place in league hitting with .411. Sislcr, Jackson and Ruth follow in the order named. Ty Cobb is creeping up in his effort to give Speaker a battle for the bat ting championship. During the Inst week. Tyrus hopped from .327 to .345. Jim Bagby is leading the pitchers with twenty-three ami seven and Ed Rommell. of our A's. is next with three and one.

L. out ..11 rpHE Phils didn't do much in the way of getting triumphs during the last week, but at that the seven days were profitable to one member of the Raker club. That ono is Irish Meuscl, who has climbed from .203 to .275. In seven days Irish has slapped out four home runs. lie now has a total of eleven to Ills credit, which places him second to Cy Williams among the home run clouters in the league. Cy has thirteen. Irish had two circuit wal lops on August 7, and two on Thurs day. Meuscl has contributed an even dozen hits out of twenty-nine times up for an average of .414 in a week. Williams is giving the batting lead crs a tough battle. The Phil outfielder is slamming the ball at .328. He is topped by Hornsby, .375; Roush, .332, ann smith ,,vjii, Watson, of the Rraves, and Mitchell, of Rrooklyn. head the pitchers with five won and one lost.

After all Don't you admire the wight And often sing his praises over all Who fought his way through hell to find the liaht Who had to fight each yard beyond the gate That opened wide upon a greater role, Facing whatever future might await In the full knowledge he had proved his soult rnnOSE who saw Ted Ray battle In the open championship in 1013 were sure he had the same stance, the same swing and tho same mighty mold. Yet there was something strangely unfamil iar which baffled them for some time, until the secret at last came out. He had switched pipes for a change. Coming From Behind f REAT praise Iiob always been given VJT the entrv who comes from behind, but we still insist that the front run ner carries the greater burden. It is for this reason that Giant chances to win the National League pennant became good when McGraw at last got his machine under way and the team scrambled out of the quicksand. Rrooklyn nnd Cincinnati, battling for the lead since April, had a lot taken out of them bv August. When two entries nre hooked over the long route in a heartbreaking scrap it is with no cheer ful soul that either observes a stranger suddenly horning In with a chance to pass both. The effect at times is ex tremely depressing. On the other side of it, the entry that first figures he is whipped to a creamy froth and then suddenly discovers he has n good chance, after all, Is spurred on with a winning determination tuai is hard to batter down. When tho Rraves hit that spurt in 1014 a double wired trench manued with machine guns and protected by shrapnel couldn't drive thcin back into the old life of shame. How Many? ANUMRER of wagers were made In March and April that "Rabc" Tiniv, wouldn't make forty home runs. A number of others were made that he wouldn't turn in fifty. The first bntch have already paid up, or have been re quested to do the same. The second batch who bet against fifty nre in a highly nervous state. Every time they hear a loud noise you can sec them flinch. They seem to hear n baseball crashing against something large and round. With seven weeks left in which to lean ngainRt right nnd left handed pitch -Inir. it is nlmost a certainty that he will move on past the fifty total. What his final mark will be is interesting more people .than the number of electoral votes Harding or Cox will get. ANY number of duffers follow an open golf championship just to see ths stars pop into a bunker. It is an ex. trcmely soothing sight to those ho spend four-fifths of their tlmo joustlnr in the sand-filled troughs, i"r0 YOU consider Roush a tar L' outfielder?" writes h. K. P. a good outfielder, but not to be nlassed with Speaker, Cobb, Shcckard, Lang Keeler, Fred Clarke or many others for nil around value. For example, no keen judge of play would ever pick him for any all-star outfield of the present day. (Cotvrloht. into, AH rights rcscrvrd.)
