fTUin lirsr n t of the Knst vs. Wot oxtravagnnni wns Maged .v esferiia v
J. afternoon when uperial matinees were held In seven different cities. It
as well reretved despite the absence nf Teddy Rnrtrr. who knows everything
about the V.aM nnd the Writ.
In .roring four vlrtorics. the westerners had a llBht edge on the day
St. Lose, Pittsburgh nnd Chicago ropped in the National, while Cincinnati
tumbled in Hronkbn In the Atnerioon. Washington won a battle royal
from Clcvi'lnml, the Yankees socked Detroit aud the Red fox flopped to the
rcmnantH of the White Sox
However, the dope almost ran true to form. The Cardinals had no
license to win from the Giants, but you never can tell what will happen in
baseball. Brooklyn has n much stronger team than Cincinnati, nnd the vame
(Toes when comparing Pittsburgh w Ith the Rraves and the Cubs with our Phils
As n result of jejttrrdaj's games, the runncrs-up in both lengurs arc
closely bunched. If the Yankees lose today nnd Boston wins, the former will
drop to fifth place nnd the Bed Sox move to fourth, with Detroit third. There
can be no change In the positions in the National, as Brooklvn, New York
and Chicago are all set for a duv or ao. However, there will be a battle for
eighth position.
Percentage tables arc funny things St. Lose has prevented the Phils
from dropping into the last hole thus far, but the Cards seem to have re
formed. If each club wins today thev will be tied for last place with .H33.
If both teams lose the Phils will remain iu seventh place with n percentage
of .260 against .27S.
Bambino Buth earned n portion of his n!ary in Detroit when. In the
first inning, he walloped his ninth horn run of the Reason A playmate hap
pened to be on ba.e at the time and those two runs were enough to win n
2 to 1 victory. It is seldom thnt the Yfihks cop such cloe contests. The
core usually is 0 or $ or something like that, Carl Mnyn was in great form
nd turned the Tiger sluggers on their backs.
Urban 1'al.er was good enough to turn the Bed Sox nnd his team on
anoUcr unexpected victory. Victories in Chicago arc as scarce as they used
to be in Shibe Park.
Pittsburgh gained another lap in busting the Braves for n trip and no
are out in front with "-ovpntoeti victories und four defeats. Not so bad for
this time of the year
The Athletics didn't play In St I.ouis. the only thing -preventing the gnme
being a rain storm. They will hook up with the Browns today, perhaps
fJpK home-run i o'rtprtition hetsceen A'ula nnd (irorgc Kelly has

ip on him and now has five. In a little while the popular song in the
atianal League is Ule!;i to he, "Has anybody here icen Kellyt"
Landis Ridinp on Baumgartncr .4ids Cubs
C TROVER CI.nVEI.AND ALEXANDER turned turtle on his former pals
I yesterday and slipped them n nice sedate drubbing in the opening frame
of the set at the PhiN" park drover put on a comeback stunt, as it was
his first appearance since h irting his arm in the opening game in Chicago
a mouth ago Alex looked goi.il on the mound and was breezing along nicely
when he was removed after the sixth inning
Lefty Baumgartncr also tried to step into the picture ognm and did an
Alcxundcr with reverse English Lefty has not pitched a game for the
Phil5 since 1015, and that's a long time. He joined the club again this year,
but was benched until Judge Landis looked into his case. The judge ruled
favorably, which proved a swell ruling for Chicago
The Cubs wasted no time In getting nfter Baumgartner and shoved over
five runs in the first four innings. Then Keenan went in nnd. much to the
surprise of every one, he pitched a great game and held the Cubs scoreless.
This is the first time the weency pitcher has done anything worth mentioning
on the borne lot. He was removed in the eighth to make way for h pinch
hitter nnd Welnert finished the game.
Irish Mcufcel made the longest hit of the day In the fnurtn when he
stepped into one of Alex's fast ones und sent It on a line over the right field
wall. It would hnv been n homer in any ball park, for there was a lot of
beef behind the blow Wnghtstone also onnected with a circutt wallop anil
almost madp another in the eighth. He hit one over Twomblev's head and
the Cub outfielder barelj was able to get it. Had the ball hit the ground it
would have bounced into the bleachers
Ralph Miller played shortstop again and received Ins customary greeting
from the bleacher. This is rubbing it in on a home player. Ralph Is sub
stituting at short and trying to do the best he can. Despite this, the mob U
on hlin and the rawsberry shooters nre giving him the boole nt every oppor
tunity. On the road he played good ball and was leading the league in hitting.
"When he came home, when: he should have been given u real welcome, he has
been panned so unmercifully that he went into a slump nnd has had but one hit.
The University of Pennsylvania nnd
the Ynle two-mile teams that ran stun
n stirring relny race in the Penn
carnivnl niaj come together ngain if
plans which Oeorge Orton, director of
the rclnvs, has in mind materialize
Yesterday afternoon Orton wired the
grndunte manager of athletics nt New

scheduled for June 1 on Trnnklln Field
In a letter that followed the telegram
Orton made it plnin that he would

Ever since the relays the Penn
students nnd graduates interested In
athletics, have been talking iu n
general unsatisfactory way nbnut the
defeat suffered by Lnwson Robert

followers claim that the race would

Mike Gibbons Coma Back and Makes a Good Shotting
MICHAEL GIBBONS, who has decided to take the middleweight ehnm
plonshlp back tn St Paul, Minn., exhibited himself at the National
A. A. on Monnuv night, nnd looke-1 the part of a real contender for the title.
Mlehdcl has bien in retlr ir.eiit for soino time, bu' merged when Johnny
Wilson walloped Mike O'liuwd. Mr O'Dowd socked Miehacl quite lluently

his retirement But Wilson N different from Mike s fallen rmvnsman Quite
different. Gibbons thinks n -an hck him
Mike took a lot of exerrlse in his bout with Krunkie Maguiro and showed
he had lost none of his dazzling -peed. His jab was lightning fast, he hooked
well aud pum-hed tralght Although Maguiro furnished little opposition,
Gibbons seldom uncnrki-d a wild wallop, which proves lie has been working
hard and is In fighting trim -o far as punching Is romerned.
The St. Paul man looked good. Perhaps he couldn't help it, as Frankie
just mauled around, swinging wildly, and It didn't take a cry clever person
to step out of the wuj ,f the wooxy swings. Had Mike been up against n
purson almost a clever as himself and was forced tn extend himself we would
have becu able to get a better line on his work However, he did all that was
expected of him. showed lots of class, scored a knockout and no fighter could
have done more
Mike wns overweight and looked as if he hud abo.it ten pounds too much
distributed ov.-r hl person He perspired easily und at the end was very
tired. This was bemuse he hit Frankie with every thing In- hud. even knocking
him out nf th- pr!e .if u pair of return trip tickets from St. Paul, Minn.
Giblioii ha been boxing since l',K)M, and although a star, never has won

grounds they were negotiating for, are
ngain forced to travel, nnd have ono of
the strongest aggregations that lias
ever represented the association, which
includes it number of new players.
The opening game was placed last
Saturday with I)avc Bcnnls' Chestnut
Hill Club, and although tho Sphas lost
by .r to It, thev nut up a classy article
of ball, considering the lack of prac
tice. Due to a misunderstanding, the

The titruccle to win four mines had
been terrific, despite tho fact thnt the
Red Sox, through Joe Wood's brilliant
pitching, had won three out of the first
four. ,
In tho deciding game Christy Mathevv
Ron wns sent against Hugh Bedient.
The GlnnU scored in the third and
would" have added another, run except
for Hooper's brilliant catch over the
left-field wire that robbed Larry Doyle
of a homo run, as great a catch ns nny
man ever now.
When the Bcventh started it began to
look as if Mnthewson was on his way
to a shutout, as he was pitching with all
his ancient greatness.
Rut in the seventh, with two out,
Jake Stahl lifted tin easy lly to left.
There was an outfield mlxun and the
ball fell safe. A base on balls to Wag
ner followed, and then Hcnrlkscn, n
young pinch hitter, chopped one down
the left-field line which stirred up the
white chalk.
That unexpected blow tied the score,
nnd when the ninth inning was finished
the battle was still In a knot after eight
dnyH of rugged warfare.
Tho Final Inning
rpHB tenth inning wns as replete with
up toward first base. Merkte rIhh.,1
and then Mopped. Ho said later that
against the gray sky ho did not sec the
bnll. When no ono covered, Chief
Meyers came from back of the bat and
got within half n. stride of It ni the ball
dropped In the coach's box off first
base.
The Deciding Blow
THIS was the deciding blow. Mathew
son had clvrn tho Giants thr
chances t6 retire the side on easy play,
au'd they had failed on two of them
Speaker then followed with a sharp
single that scored Engle with the tying
ruu, sending Yerkca to third. Larrv
Gardner's sacrifice fly to Devoro een't
Ycrkes over with tho winning run, and
Matty had lost one of tho finest pitched
games of his career, with all three runs
scored against him due to ragged sup
port two files that wero not covered
and ono that wns muffed.
