MAXWELL .porta Editor Evening Public Ledger XITI1ILE Pittsburgh wns knocking the Phils for a double slam yesterday W the Giants took second place in the game with Cincinnati. This in creased the lead of the Pirates one and one-half games, nutting them out In front by six and one-half games. With the season almost over am! only six more weeks to go, it looks as if Gibbon's club would grab the pennant unices turned back by a miracle. However, nothing like that li going to happen. The Pirates were handed the pennant this morning by none other than Ernlo Lanigan, the sensational statistician and figgor filbert. There aro two ways of winning a big league pennant. One is to go out and win more games and lose fewer than any other club, and the other is to drag out the grnndoldopc and prove the championship caliber of the favorite as early as May 1. This doesn't work all of the time, but a little thing like that doesn't worry Mr. I.anlgan. Our expert Is too foxy for that. If he makes a bum guess he never offers an alibi, but comes through with moro facts and figgers about something else. By that time the first guess has been forgotten. "Pittsburgh cannot lose the pennant this yeor." he said mysteriously as he wandered Into the office. "Not a chance in the world. Everything points to an easy victory In the National League, and I have the figgers, to ay nothing of the dope. They will win because" and here he paused to make his statement more impressive "became they were leading the league on July 4!" "What the " we venture, hut Mr. I.nnlgaii Interrupted. liaising his hand for silence he resumed his solo on statistics. "Independence Day Is a grand and glorious institution," he said, "ond very patriotic citizen holds n celebrution as long as he is able to celebrate. Everybody knows that, but the day also has a particular significance to us statisticians and figger experts. All wo have to do is look at the standing of the clubs In the National League on that date ond we discover the club that will win the pennant throe months later. It is not nt all difficult nor is It In-trlcklt. A child can do It without the aid of a carpenter's pencil. "All jou have to do is first find the standing of the clubs. Then find the club in first place. Your work then is over, because that Is the pennant winner. On July 4, llll'l. the Pirates were in first place with a percentage of .071. That's my story and I will stick to It. "Take a look at the tables now. The two games copped by the Pirates yesterday while the Beds were trimming the Giants, put the Bucs exactly sixty one points ahead of the Giants. These sixty-one points represent a difference of six and a half box scores. Now then, the Giants, in order to tie the Pirates for the flag, must win twenty-five of the thirty-nine games remaining on their schedule if Gibson's gang does no better than pllt even In its forty-two con tests, m t(VOV need no further proof, (let ready for the WorW Series, and i in a thort time I shall pick the icinncr in the American League. It trill save a lot of time and worry. Introducing Precedent in Baseball WQEBHAPS you would like to know what I am alluding at," continued C Mr. Lanigan, as he shifted in front of the electric fan, "and also where I get that stuff off of. You shall have- the whole and entire story, right hero and now. "There Is such a thing as precedent in baseball, dcplte the fact that fsw players know how to pronounce It. That's the big noise precedent. Accordingly, the Pirates will win because In the last nineteen seasons records how that nlmot invariably the team that Is In first place on Independence Day qualifies for the classic, which is a way of referring to the World Series. Capital letters arc used because it makes capitalists of the athletes. "Now for some question and answer stuff. Who wns leading the Na tional League on July 4, 11102V The answer Is Pittsburgh. Who won the pennant that year? Pittsburgh. The Pirates were in the lead on Inde pendence Day, 1003, and nlto in 1000. They won the pennant both times. Therefore, according to dope and figgers and figgers never lie Pittsburgh has a cinch this year. There have been exceptions uncovered In my research work five of them hut Pittsburgh never was one of those present. "New York won in 1004 nnd 1005 and were Fourth of July leaders. Chicago came through In 100(5. 1007, 100S and 1010, and also had an Inde pendence Day lead. The first time the dope was kicked to pieces was in 1011. The Phillies were out in front in mldseuson with a percentage of .025, but the Giants copped and the Phils finished fourth. In 1014 the Giants were overhauled by Boston, the Phils bent out Chicago in 1015, Cincinnati walloped New Y'ork in 1010 and Brooklyn put it over the Beds last year. Both years the Giants finished second; the Beds, when they were overtaken, ran third, and Chicago and the Phils, when passed, finished at the bottom of the first division. "The Boston Braves of 1014 stand In a class by themselves in coming from the second division the foot of it to the top of the heap. This is the year that George Stalling, now a magnate In Rochester, N. Y., earned the title of Miracle Man. On the night of July 4 his club was leading the league like the Phils and the A's backwards. They were 'Ml points behind tho procession, meaning the Giants. When the season ended the Braves were .014 and New York trailed with .545. The Braves gained ..120 while the Giants were losing .000. "No other National League club maintaining its position nt the top o cllmblng to the summit ever traveled so rapidly as did the Braves seven years M. The Cubs, 1000, tacked OS points to their record nftcr Independence Day, and Brooklyn last year gulncd CO points after July 4. Pittsburgh already la ahead of the 1021 record. "'THEREFORE and Q. E. pennant. Xothing can figgers never lie." Detroit Appreciated Donnie Bush's Work 'AFTER thirteen years of brilliant service, where he gave everything he had on the ball field for the success of his team, Donnie Bush has been rewarded by the Detroit club. He was sold yesterday to Washington for the waiver price. .$2500. All of which recalls that famous truthful saying, "It makes no difference what jou WERE, it's what you ARE today." The past is forgotten when it comes time to attach the tinware. There is no sentiment in baseball. Short of stature, but nimble of brain, fast on his feet and an excellent pair of hands. Donnie has been one of the leading shortstops In the American League. He was full of pep, talked incessantly to his teammntes, telling them what to do and coaching them at all times, arguing with the umpires when ever he won not satisfied with n decision, he earned the reputation of being one of the most aggressive players In the game. The old-timers will remember Bush whpn he broke in as a kid in the days when Bill Donovan. Plank, Bender and the other stnrs were fighting it out for pennants. He alwan was popular, never laid down on the job and fought until the end. Donnie played in South Bend In 1007 and was doely observed bv Ring Lardncr. whose home was at Mies. Mich., a short distance from South" Bend. He tipped off n couple of big league scouts, but they laughed, thinking Ring wbb telling them a funny story. At that time Donnie could have been pur chased for $300. The next year he went to Indianapolis and from there to .Detroit. He succeeded Charlej O'l.cnry at shortstop.

Ceorgo Elkins 16 Undor 4's In Noblo "Rinser" Golf Event. Two Holes in "One" CRAB GRASS IS FOUGHT By SANDY McNIBLTCK Cruising up nnd down 'midst York road golf yields many little items of Interest. There's Huntingdon Valley, for instnnce. This beautiful golf course, one of the best kept in the city, Is undergoing the worst siego of crab grass iu its history. A group of golfers stood mournfully at the eighteenth green the other after noon, vhere fifteen men wern seated on its ex-velvety bosom picking, pick ing all the day. There was a pile of crab crass, al ready gathered, as high nnd big around as the spaghetti -fed workmen beside It. Strings were lnld across the green nnd they were picking over every Inch of it. It was astounding to regard" the amount of nntl-puttlng grass they were gar nering. But right In the midst of this ses sion it wns equally astounding to have a look at the ringer scoring In the an nual contest out there for the best -ball card of the season. It was fast and furious enough last year. But this year the experts out there are more thnn holding their own. By the plnv two golfers out there pass into the "Hole-in-One" Club, without the formality of riding the goat. They are Clajton Ingrnhnm. who holed his tee shot on No. (1, nnd J. II. Daingerfield. who likewise scored n "one" on the punch -bowl fourteenth. Daingerfield Is scoring n wicked total. He holed an engle 3 on the third and has got the difficult 2's on both No. 0 and 11. Ho hns entered tip twelve holes so far nnd is nine under 4's. Sixteenth Baffling When we noted that Donaldson Cresswcll had an eagle on the long twelfth, n 3, we quickly looked up his tory on No. 10. But no. They are even chalking up 5's for that hole, and glad to get 'em by tho bold way It's written down. A 5 will win thnt hole 'most any start. It's one of the longest, hnrdest nnd finest three-shot holes in the coun try. It's n better test thnn the much advertised fifth hole at Columbia, most will tell you, though the out-of-bounds feature is mostly missing at II. V. C. C. Tho job at the latter is getting on the green, while nt Columbia it's a matter of staying out of the sand heaps and in bounds. K. A. Welheninnyer hns an eagle to his credit on the fifteenth, which Is not without the imagination, though they do say it's a "tumble long putt." George W. Elkins lends the ringers with 5ti, including two pars he hopes to better. Ills back nine is finished with 27 strokes nnd he's 10 under 4's for the sixteen holes marked up. Harold Kltson has 5S strokes, tied with J. S. Gould nnd Leonard M. Addis. Jr. There's n class handicap event for today similar to that held Inst Satur day. The scores then were : Clnss A C. C.

Lnst night's result was somewhat of a surprise for Jerry and the match proved to ho a rather rough affair. Roth fighters were weak at the finish.
