8 Just Shows What Poor Judgment Jeff Shows at Times By "Bud" Fisher CHICK'S CIRCUS ACTS FACTOR IN VICTORY Joe Chabek With His Spitters Also Figured in Tiger's Down fall Yesterday HARRISBURG AT THE RAT :What happened in the heated ar gument between Harrlsburg and Trenton yesterday when the Ponies came up to the plate with their willows: KEYES: Out short to first, force hit, out third to first, sacrifice hit. CRUIKSHANK: Out pitcher to first, fly out to center, out short to first, single to first. CRIST: First on error by Ham mond, out short to first, single to center, out third to first.

CHABEK: Fly out t<> third, out short to first, hit by pitcher, short to first, hit by pitcher, one run. By "I mp" Juicy curves by Joe Chabek and circus catches by Chick Emerson were big factors yesterday in winning the game from Trenton; score, 2 to 1. Island Park patrons never left their eeats until the last man was out for Trenton. It was the second time Harrlsburg chased the Tigers to cover on the heme field. Williams, the Tiger twirler, had puzzlers and speed. He lost his own game when he tapped Chabek on the elbow in the seventh inning with a pitched ball. Emerson's greatest one-hand catch was in the sixth, when he made a long reach and sta'>bed a four-base drive from Johnnie's stick. Cruikshank was also mixed up in a stabbing affray. AVhalen and .Maurer had a close race for brilliant work at short. Pop Foster was on the job as man ager for the Bengals'and was given a warm welcome. His presence brought increased ginger into the work of Tronton. In the first three innings Chabek had difficulty in getting the hall to break right. In the third in ning Hammond hit to left field for a double. Meyers put down a Cincin nati bingle and Hammond romped home on Johnson's sacrifice fly to center. Harrisburg scored in the fourth Miller reached first on Meyers' error; Whalen sacrificed and McCarthy doubled to left. In the seventh Cha bek was hit. Keyes sacrificed, and when Cruikshank sent a hot grounder down the first base line and beat it out Chabek came home. The score: TR ENT< >N AR. R. H. O. A. E.

Whalen is fast on his feet and covers a large territory.

LIGHTWEIGHT FIGHT K DISAPPOINTMENT "Billy" Rocop of Philadelphia Sends Real Facts Regarding the Results According to a cahlegram to the Public Ledger of Philadelphia the Ritchie-Welsh fight was not a big suc cess financially. The veteran sporting writer, William H. Rocop, of the Public I/edger, who is in Europe, and witnessed the battle, sends the following to his paper: "While all Europe is discussing the result of the Ritchie-Welsh bout to day, promoters are busy balancing ac counts. The gate were a dis appointment, being only *21,000, and American finance, a» often before, tri umphed. Ritchie received his $15,000 guarantee and SIO,OOO for his share of the moving-picture money, already de posited with Billy Gibson, of New York. Tremendous expense was at tendant upon the v ontest, and after all expenses were deducted Welsh re ceived little more than a reputation. He is already booked for music halls, and expects a great revenue from that source. "There was a great argiiment£fn clubs and hotels to-day over RefS?e Corri's decision. Many claim that nie Welsh crowd at the ringside made it for him. The dispute may revolution ize decisions of championship contests. The margin of last night's bout Is said to be insufficient to lose the title. "Ring followers are not kindly dis posed toward incessant clinching, holding and running away. Welsh proved a pastmaster at this art. A private view of the moving pictures tells Its own story, for it shows Welsh playing an evasive game, with Ritchie the aggressor in the majority of the rounds. Welsh's light blows scored frequently and won the decision." Why Poulton Straw Hats— Because—here you will find straw hats with a guarantee of style correctness.
