Dempsey arrived unheralded nnd
Krcctcd by only n few of his closest

Ho was greeted on his arrival here by
Samuel Vnuclaln, of the Baldwin Loco

Dougherty, Fnther Bynn, of Lclper
vlllo ; Lew Bailey nnd Bill Dempsey, the
last named not being a relative of the
champion.
After his arrival Dempsey was hustled
to a waiting automobile and was speeded
out to Woodsldc Park, where he was
the. cynosure of some .500 youngsters
brought to tho park from Delaware
County by Jnmcs Dougherty for their
nununl picnic.
Immediately after tho picnic Dcmp

At Philadelphia they will again stand

both- are driven from the field. And It
will hardly be both, notwithstanding tho
superior quality of earnest rivals, who
arc now on hand.
The two Bills have been the Nip-nnd-Tuck

How many male golfers are there in
America who would win from Miss Cecil
Leitch?
The female of the species is deadlier
than the male in many lines, but how
about competitive sport?
Tho argument grows apace, picking
Liggett & Myers Tobacco
up fervor ns it hurries along. Tennis
is harder to figure, being n sport where
one person's play depends upon the
strength of n rival.
lint In co f a score Is a score. Miss

average around 80. This would leave
her with nn nmclnl handicap of (I among

It is conceivable that super-Suzanne

BIG HURLING DUEL
Hits One Into Broad Street
While Winters and Ponder
Are Battling
TWO CASUALTIES IN GAME
When it comes to hurling duels that
havo a fahdnntl&n for tno old dycd-ln-flip-wool
fan, yesterdaj'3 heroic twelve-
inning bnttle on tho Hutnn must not be I
forgotten when the stove lennun gels
Into executive besston some time in
November.
Tw.o rnstoffs, Ponder, traded to tho
Cubs by ttie Pirates for Dnvey Uobcrt
bon, nnd Jess Winters, our latest ac
quisition from the Giants, staged as
pretty a fight as hns been seen on the
home lot for many moons.
It is hard to say who had the better
of the struggle, the results, of course,
proving thnt Winters camu nut on top,'
Ponder, however, hurled benutlful hall
throughout nnd for the last five Innings
of the game the Phils failed to garner
n safety.
Winters permitted eight hits, nnd in
only one inning the sixth did more thnn
one come In nny one Inning. The two
hits in the sixth failed to cause any
thing more thnn n ruflle for they pro
duced nothing In the way of runs.
Had It not been for misplnys on the
part of both teams the final figures
would have been 1 to 0. The
Phils secured their first run on a wild
peg to third in tho first nnd -the Cubs
counted their only tally In the fifth
on n two-base wild throw by Parkin
son. Page Mr. Williams
Elongated Cv Williams, who is rap
idly recovering tho range on the right
field wull, was the Dick Merriwell yes
terday. He had three balls and a
strike registered against him on tho
scoreboard when he up nnd shot one
of Ponder's selcrt curves high nnd dry
over the right-field wall for a round
trip thnt wns made through the joyous
handful who slapped the former Notre
Dame star on the back with every step.
Two of the regular Phils suffered
split fingers yesterday. In the Cubs'
half of the third Monroe, nfter field
ing n grounder, started wringing his
right hnnd. He was forced to leave
the game with a badly cplit finger
that may keep him on the sldo lines
for a week or more. Jack Peters In
the fourth suffered the snme ailment
when n foul ball nicked one of his
precious digits.
While the Phils were winning ut
home, the Mnckmen were being trounced
for the third time by the Tigers. Itollio
