"1 think wo will Mtilrt on u winning streak today." i he mid before the riiiiic. "Wo have been going badly, of .late, but the boys now have got tlietnoclves together and will play Kd ball." The visitors did the bot they could, but it wasn't ruotigh. I 'oniric's A's. aided by very superior twirling by -l)avc Kocfe. got away to a Hying start, and although they were lied once, they forgd ahead and kept the lead ' until the ilni-h. , Cleveland showed little spirit in jestorday's contest. but thej cannot be blamed for that. They have gone ' through n very sad week and it will take time for them to forget. At the same time it wns a far different ball "club from the one which hustled through the last series. This does not detract from the victory of the A's. The home folks Oenrvwl to win because they hit more timely, had better pitching and the breaks were witli - them. Tor -xamplo. in the ninth inning, when Smith opened with a single and stole second, it looked as if the 'score would be tied. However, Gardner's sacrifice lolled , into Krefe's hands and Smith was an easy out at third. That plaj spelled defeat for Cleveland, for It killed -.their only cliani c. Speaker made many substitutions after that, but none of the subs came through. The A's now have won two in a row from the visitors and will go after them again today.

In a shoit time the leain will get going It can't help but step out nnd win 11 lot of ball games nnd then the other clubs will have to look out. Cleveland will make it interesting just as soon a the team gets going. The one reasou for the present showing of tire In dians is Tris Speaker. While in Cleveland last week to "attend the Chapman funeral Spoke suffered nu attack of ptomaine poisoning and was seriously ill. He got out of a. sick bed. went to Huston and. although too weak to (' v anything, tried to get into the game. Tris lost lift ecu pounds and wns in no shape to play, but tried just the same. He was the first to crack under the strain and that affected the other players. Speaker is gaining strength every day. nnd that means BALA FIRST-HOLE DRIVE TEST FURNISHES LINE ON GOLFERS Only One Player Ever Drove in Bunker. According to Frank Mc Adams Aspiring Club Champion Once i ''Shoived Up" Gil h'icholls , 'Ufa y SANDY JUST how much ardnge do the best players get from the too and through the green with their wood? Hero's a question that has been di. putcd for years in golf. Some claim that professionals such as Hagen. Uarnes. Hay and Mitchell will be. close to 2".- yards of an average. Amateur averages are computed around 'J'2'i ards. but .the Itnhi CJolf Club, which is holding its annual invi tation tourney this week, has a marker on the first hole which demonstrates that a player is getting hold of his ball and hadn't much to complain of if he carries it. The marker is a low ridge that runs noro-s the fairway out there about 1S.1 jnri.'s from the tee. Players left in the first Hight of the tournc) today were landing just across the ridge. If they got a good ball, and then rolling for a little more distance. Good Test Th.it ridge on tlie first hole is a good test of an unknown opponent. If h can carry it comfortably he's going to be dangerous at Bala, where liealtliy tee shots fount llewmd the ridge is ti bunker. It is 20" ynnN. 'I7s inches from the tee.

This Is drastic action, but when one realizes that it came after due thought and deliberation, nril written on the spur of the moment. It is quite serious. The players have wailed a week before taking any action on the death of Hay Chapman and did not take the step until the matter had been thoroughly discussed. p No copy of the letter is available, "but the principal points follow : The Cleveland baseball club will uphold and defend liny action taken by the other American League clubs in refusing to play In a game with Carl Mays. They did not urge any one to do this, but put It up to the players. A copy also wns sent to ltan Johnson. "The reasou for this action," said one of the Cleve land plajers today, "was that Mays went back in the game and pitched ns if nothing had hnpponcd. Ho wns treated like a hero who had done something wonderful, and it wasn't right.

Cravath's col lection' of cellaritos crcnpnl from Cin cinnati, victors in one game out of four, and severely conscious that the oue game had given the Iteds pennant prospects an awful jolt. The Phils open hero today. It was by long odds the worst game soon for years in Cincinnati o hideous exhibition xof fumbles, wild pegs nnd bone plavs by the champions, while the astonished nnd appreciative visitors gladly accepted the soft things thrust upon them. Incidentally, Hubbell pitched a mighty line game, the best lie hns staged sjneo he joined tho club, nnd showed n lot of class while lie xyas shutting out the champions Cravath's cuckoos got two at the start two runs that were literally forced upon them. With one extinct, Lebourvenu bunted safe. nawlings smote it smacking single. Trying to get Lebourvenu off second, Ring let fly a peg that oroke n finger on Kopf'a right hand, nud also gave both runners nnothcr base. Kopf is out of it for threo weeks or more, just at the most crucial period of the season. - When Williams gave Daubcrt an easy bounce, Heine Oroh .camo to tho top with the clown play of the season. Ho did exactly xvhat brought II. Zimmer man immortal obloquy in the 1017 series attempted to catch Lcbourvcau in a Ktem chase and lost by live feet. Kawlings oozed around to third during this wild merriment and scored on Mcusel's fly to Xenle. The crowd hooted lots more in the third, and with good reason. Pnulcttc strolled. A wretched throw by Wingo gave him second and then Daubcrt mis handled Lcbourveau's bunt so horribly that Paillette scored and Lebourveaii scooted to second. Ilawllngs's grounder and Williams's long fly admitted Lc bourvcau. After tb,is explosion of idiocy, the Kcds held their own for n time, Hub bell, iiicanyvhlle, wns pitching some pretty fancy ball. He had the Iteds i as helpless as n green caterpillar in a ( giirdner's shears and the crowd kept up a sieuuy urc oi cuicaus. In the sixth. Fletcher got on through a force-play, and wandered to second on a balk. Ualph Miller died easily; Wlthrow banged one of his few hits a triple down right held and Fletcher, naturally, adjourned to the plate. In the eighth, there wns more horse play. Meusel singled, a passed ball run led him to third, and Daubert's hilarious boot of l-'lejlL'licr'H roller let Irish in. , That was all, thank you, -except a soft run mnde by Hubbell against Sallec in the ninth. "Give mo the tough clubs after this." li Hubbell. "I work belter against them than I do against tho second-raters. I.et in.j have tlrst crack nt Ndw York and llrouk i n when wo get homo nguln." c.v Will la nm returned to duty He couldn't lilt but cut ilnwn some long flka with hla graceful, giraffe-like movement. Paulettn was knocked out In the eighth i. a bounder that hit him whero ho didn't ilk" It He managed to complete the play ' i the runner then flopped like a fish on il" sand. Jack Miller relieved him. ! Heine firoh's bone plav in rhaslncr T.e. imurveau home rocked tho stands with mer- rlinent. It was the funniest thing of the m-.ih. ah aroi iiaii to do was to toss the lM" to Wlngo. but Just as Zimmerman did on a moro memornble occasion, he pursued lib runner and finished u bad second as the 1'renchman slid home. V Crane, subbing for Ivonf. had only two (Mi) chances, both easy lie was up at bat 'iur times and never got the ball out of the Infield, and tho Ileds gave Indianapolis i-mlih, Schrelber and J300O for this fellow, uhy Is hitting ,185. Tho champions are In blamed bad shape. Wopf is out for maybo n month, and ItJs I'MiUnt that Crane can't nil his shoes, es pn tally with the slick. The pitchers aro i ompli'tcly shot and no relief tn sight. dli-c'a pitching In the ninth was nn msful Joke.
