CHESTER BEGS PARDON
OF SOUTH PHIL FANS;
TRIMS RUDOLPHIANS
Everything Was Levely at Shetzline Park Except the
Ball Game, Which Was Much te the Fremagc,
Ending When
SHETZLINn TARK, en the margin of the benutiful boulevard that runs
through Varcvllle from the Southwestern trolley line te Uncle Sam's Navy
Jltnl at League Island, h a Una plant, which Is elang for some place.
We Dpenlt with conviction because last evening we were the twilight guest
f Bill Itudelph and Jack Ileden. who unanimously nnured us that Shetzline
lark Is the most pretentious kwball enclosure south of Market street. When
the manager and the publicity agent of the Seuth Phillies are unanimous en
ny given subject they must he right.
, Certainly net Mnee the daj.s of the old Union Association and Jumbo
Park has there been an thing In the peuthern section of our fair city that
approached the home of the Seuth I'lills, and even the old-timers admit the
Bread and Klglcr field has nemcthlng en Jumbo for comfort and appointments.
And the gemes; what Philadelphia baseball fan has net teen or nt least
ard of old Jack Clements, the famous southpaw catcher of the Phillies,
,These specialty was blocking the runner at the plate nt the risk of a broken
fmkln or werv. Clements was graduated from the Union Apsocintlen. In
thece days the games were battles for bleed, but the best efforts of the August
piewera and their opponents was In nc nay superior te the quality of light
ing game vthlrh one sees nightly in Shetzline Park.
M KE last
iceek's encounter letieeen Chester and the Seuth Phils
n) an example.
That conflict
Jtckus he kneus.
Added Attractions
(VTOTHING like having an ndded attraction. If a baseball fan can witness
ILN n boxing match In connection with an exhibition of the national pastime
(without additional expense he hasn't any real kick coming.
Maybe that's uliat lured the Heck of cah customers te the Seuth Phillies'
playground last nlgl.t. It was Chester that put the punch In the game last
Sreek and It was Chester that lined up against the Itudelphlans Inst night. The
crowd was there ready for the game and everything.
We asked BUI Hudelph hew many patrons were present and he replied:
("Don't knew. Yeu sec I count the runs, hits and errors; Juck Iteden figures
Pe attendance."
As we entered the stadium we were impressed fej its acreage The park
la sq big they had te build a fence all around It te keep the etitlicld from
petting lest In the meadow a or falling Inte the back channel.
There uas a fleck of jeung men present who directed the customers te
tbelr seats. Jim Tallman, who Is a strong boenter for the Seuth Phils, told
pa these jeuths were the Beard of Directors. Jim knows a let of wise cracks.
During the progress of the first Inning keine one en the home tenm,
glancing toward the Navy Yard, saw a sailor wigwagging from the fighting
top of a battleship. Immediately be was suspected of tipping Chester off te
(the Seuth Phil signals.
Just as Itudelph was about te train his batteries en the suspect a search
Jlfht investigation disclosed the fact that he was holding a speechless conversa
tion with a mermaid who was powdering her nose en the banks of the swim
ming peel adjacent te the ball park.
LOOKIXG ever the creicd tee missed Jim my Hunter ftem his usual
grandstand teat. With the iid of a peuerful field plats and n
flight sticteh of the imagination ee iccre ennbhd te see Jimmy tuning
up in the Velodreme at Point Hrceze for Thursday night's races.
Apology Frem Chester
ITUST before the battle began, Umpire Zaln net Rckus rend u letter from
U the Chester Club te the fans of Seuth Philadelphia. Chester asked te be
pardoned for the commotion it caused August 17, and snld it would like te
ttgaln the geed will of the Shetzline Park rooters.
The fans cheered because most of them failed te hear the ump and didn't
Jkaew what It was all about. But It seemed like geed news se they applauded
ptnd the motion was carried. Even BUI Itudelph and Jack Hedcn agreed
fWIn.
Eijjht thousand fans and a gang of automobiles ncrc present nt the gam
audi as It whs.
Jt lasted just six and a fraction Inning'', but In that time twenty-four
uns were scored Chester (kote the most lunncrs uriesM tbr plate, se the
(Seuth Phils lest.
Recapitulation :
. Chester 0 4 :t 0 0 013 14 2
1 Seuth Phils 4 0 1 0 1 211 11 2
There were a number of service area, but they came from the Navy Yard
kad counted In the box office, net the box score.
All the batters tried te knock the ball ever the fence. Twe of them
Ceceeded. Ad Swlgler, the Chester speedster, and Teny Pattqucrella, who
Ips around first base for the home club, slammed the pill for homers,
pwlgler also hit one in the seventh, but as the crowd rushed en the field, and
the umpire called the game en account of darkness bis second wallop didn't
count.
The Seuth Phils pitchers certainly led a fast llf In fact, the were se
jfast In ruining and ft'iln that the fans almost lout count of them. Four
regulars were uwl and cxen then 15III Itudelph, uhe'e tossed them up when
the b'euthwark Club was a pup. almost wus fere-d te mount th hill.
Bill !i-eell started. lie lasted eni- and a half innings. His hesi
tating style of pitching failed te feel Brls Lord's crew, and after issuing four
free tickets, two hits and four runs, he was janked before he gave the park
way.
imPIRE SMITH heaved a sigh
IS lie had been side-stepping low
tcss serving them up, and he saw a
TTtRED ZOPFI (alias Zeph!) walked Inte the box. Jee Josephs then decided
jV te give the Seuth Phils a rest, se he hit Inte a double play. This time the
whole crowd sighed in relief
Herb Steen was the first batter for the Phils, but he must have been up
there for practice. He fouled se many balls that Secretary-Treasurer Harry
pPrettymnn warned him net te cause the club nny mere expense by losing the
jkersehtde. He fanned en the next ball just te be obliging.
After Zephl was socked out of the box Jacksen took his place. Jack was
at Improvement, but was forced te give away te n plnch-hltter Herb Steen,
who went In the box In the seventh, didn't pitch a full inning before the
game was called.
Fair fans were much In evidence When Johnny PepleskI was about te
wing at one of Pitcher CiingrasV sheets, a feminine voice In the stands piped :
"Hey, Johnny 1 wbat're you deln' here?"
I ...
PEP turned around te see if the lassie uas calling him. and Gingrass
shot the tail eier the plate for a stnke. Johnny meaning
Pep doesn't knew yet the identity of the maiden, out he knows he
grounded out.

light te allow the battle te go en."
Geerge P. Cnrtwrlght. president of the V. B. A., arrived late. He

TO QUIT THE RING

Knockout King, With 12-Year

by End of Year
WANTS TO MEET DUNDEE
By LOUIS II. JrFK
WHETHER premise or threat, If
boxers who have announced Inten
tions te retire by the time the new jcar
rolls around, nt least three star list
men will be missed by the dear old
public when 1022 pnsscs off Inte his
tory. FIrt Benny Leenard, the champion
hlmcelf, declared the bejlnnlng of 102Ti
would tlnd him "among thec rclirtd."
Then Johnny Dundee Fald he would
write "finis"' at the bottom of his rec

Oeergc Chaney has come ettt with the
same ort of n jam.
"Yeu knew, twelve years Is n long
time for a fellow like Chaney te be In
the ring." s-nid Sammy Harris, minnger
for Chaney. here recently "A fellow
who steps In there and Is careful about
net gettltig punched about a bit is net
affected like Oceige,
"Whenever lm ?ees te the pest
Chane takes a let of chances te get
ever his knockout. As a result Geerge
Is a target for the ether bird's punches
and he has been walloped hnrd and
often at times, but usually coming out
a winner In the end."
Ills K. (). Punch
Evident Early In Career
Chaney. hlmelf, according te Har
ris, 1r net at all anxious te bang up
the mitts, but Sam believes that Geerge
has done enough In the ring and ought
te be ghen the privilege of sitting back
new and giving mhiie of the ether fel
lows nu opportunity te sock each ether
around
"But." said Harris meaningly. "I
hardly think there eer will be another
Geerge Chnnej."
Geerge Henrv Chaney. born In Baltl Baltl Baltl
more In ISM, started his clouting
career during 1010. The southpaw
developed into a knockcreut almost Im
mediately, and his record shows prob
ably mere K. O.'s than an ether boxer
of the present time.
In his second yar as a cleveman,
after scoring a total of fourteen knock
outs, I'hniiry hnd his tirst experience
of tasting n dose of his own medicine.

rounds That was jn mil.
Fer the next five jrnrs Chancy went
'alens. nutting a mnieritv of his op
penents te sleep, and seen earned the
Kebrlquct of "Knockout King." In
1010, as a featherweight, the Baltimore
battler, shaping up like a. dangerous
contender for Johnny Kllbanc's title,
was sent after the crown nt Cedar
Point. O., but J. Patrick knocked out
Geerge In the third round. This was
the second time Chaney was put te
sleep.

Shortly after this Geerge ran up a
