TECH WINNERS IN UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH MEET—HARRISBURG LOSES TWO
"RED" OWENS
LANDS ANOTHER
Local Motive Power Team
Wins; Trenton Victor Over
Baltimore
"Red" Owens aitd his aggregation
opened the Motive Power League
season at Harrisburg Saturday be
fore a large crowd. Alcorn, who was
selected for mound duty, was in
splendid form, allowing the Quakers
but two hits up until the final ses
sion when he was touched for three
hits with but one down, which netted
the visitors a pair of counters. j
Snappy fielding, led by Gerdes, in
this inning settled the proceedings.
Carney was the only one of the visi
tors who seemed to be in a batting
mood, collecting three hits for the j
day's work.
Trenton remained at the-top of the
heap by defeating Baltimore in a
fast game, 7 to 3. Matthews was
again on the hill and pitched a good I
game, not being in danger at any |
time. The pilfering of second and i
third by Wentzel in the fourth frame j
unnerved Armiger, who was un
able to hold the shop team safe af- i
ter that inning. The hitting of Spen
cer featured Baltimore.
Washington received another |
drubbing, being decisively walloped i
by Wilmington. 19 to t. The P. B. & i
W. boys entirely outclassed the Sena- I
tors, a total of 20 hits being earned :
off the delivery of the three slabmen j
used by the Ivy City manager.
The opening clash at the Federal
League Park at Newark resulted in i
Meadows downing New York. S to 4.
Timely and consistent hitting in the i
early periods gave the Meadow boys
a lead that the Gothamites were un
able to overcome. The stick work i
of McDonald for New York and the |
all-around work of Maybaum and
Pollock featured the contest. The I
local score follows:

How'd You Like to Put a Heavy War Tax On
1. The rival who sinks a 30-foot putt against you in a tight match?
2. The citizens sitting back of you in the theater who insist on talking?
S. The golfer who plays over every shot in the locker room after the
game?
4. The fan who is always peddling inside stuff from McGraw or Commy
or Mack?
5. The bloke who knows when the war is going to end?
l*rograins anil Patriots
Does calling oft all sportive programs add to patriotism? The East
| made this decision In.nearly every line. The West and South have gone on
| ahead with the scheduled events —or with most of them.
Perhaps the East is more patriotic? Perhaps it is. Then why is it that
the West especially has sent in a greater proportion of enlistments than
the East?
| The East raised the bulk of the hubbub; the West has raised the bulk of
the men—proportionately.
Pitching vs. Hatting
"Why is a strong pitching staff more valuable to a club than a hard bat
ting outfit?" comments J. L. .G. "Why Isn't one of about the same value
| as tho other?"
Apparently, on the thin face of returns, they should even up. Only they
don't. The ball club with the better pitching nearly always has the call,
i even where the other club has the harder clubbing.
There have been any number of weak batting clubs, or comparatively
weak batting clubs, that good pitching has carried through—the White Sox
of 1906, the Braves of 1914 being two rare examples.
But we can't recall a club attached to weak pitching an Oc
tober banner.
The old Cubs and the old Mackmen didn't need pitching, we have heard.
Bflt the lirst had Brown, Overall, Pfetster, and the latter fiair Bender, Plank
and Coombs. *
Strong, steady pitching holds the morale of a ball club better organized.
Given erratic, unsteady pitching and few clubs can continue the drive.
"How about Walter Johnson?" you may remark. "Minus any batting
support, he has lost nearly every start this year."
True enough. But with one of the weakest batting machines in base
ball Johnson has won the majority of his games over a ten-year span. He
is now away to a rickety start. But despite the fact that Washington can't
hit a lick, Johnson will have more victories than defeats by October.
The Destroyers
Before they stop the U-boats ,
With devices known to scieriye.
It might be just as well to try
The new scheme on the Giants.
1,. T. P.
Maybe He Is
Sir: 1 hear more than a little gossip here and there as to the game's
greatest lirst baseman —from Coiniskey and Anson on through Fred Tenne.v
to Chase and Dauhert. Most of the gossip seems to be that Chase and
Sisler have the call. But why isn't Stuffy Mclnnis at the top? He is not
only a grand tirst baseman, but with a far better batting average than
Chase, Daubert or Sisler. If Mclnnis isn't the best all-around first base
-1 man baseball has ever known 1 don't know why. H. L. T,
Just as Well
Dear Sir: In my opinion it is just as well that golf championships were
| abolished this summer. The committee in charge has retired from compe
tition the only two golfers we have ever had* capable of making any sort
of showing in international affairs. If it wasn't for Ouimet and Travis
American competitive golf would be a joke in comparison to British golf.
With these two retired it is just as well and only fitting that all champion
ships be called off. G. L. T.
Under the Ban
Sometimes I like the two-base hit,
Sometimes the bunt's a bird;
And yet 1 very rarely like
The pop-up back of third.
"And Hans Wagner, out of baseball only a few weeks, is about forgot
ten already."—Exchange. Or, as Mr. Henley said first, "Into the night go
one and all."
"Since most golf courses," writes Duffer, "are merely patches of green
turf between vast sand traps and bunkers, the majority of them would be
about as productive as the Sahara Desert, on the average golf course now
it takes an expert to linij anything but sanded depths and grottoes."
In the interest of science we'd like to see Hank O'Day sent to the front
to face a combined gas and shrapnel attack from the Prussian Guard. We
doubt very much whether an inspector operating a telescope at three paces
could detect even a quiver in Mr. well-adjusted countenance.

Abolish Golf Stymies
in All Western Matches
Chicago, May 21.—Stymies are abol
ished by a revolutionary rule pro
mulgated by the Western Golf Asso
siation for play in the western ama
teur championship, to be held at the
Midlothian Country Club, Chicago,
July 9 to 14. The new rule, which
does away, so far as three-fourths
of the United States and all of Can
ada are concerned, with one of the
most discussed penalties of golf, also
eliminates to a large extent the both
er of lifting balls on the putting
green in medal play.
The new rule upsets one of the
cardinal rules of the ancient Scottish
game by providing that the ball
nearer the hole shall be played first
when both balls are on the putting
green. ' Heretofore the ball farther
from the hole had to be played first.
In match play, where the contest is
hole by hole, the old rule brought
about a stymie when the ball nearer
the hole was in direct line of play
of the ball farther from the cup. In
medal play the old rule demanded
that the ball nearer the hole be
played or lifted until the one farther
away had been played, if the tlrst
player desired, as he would suffer a
penalty of one stroke if his ball hit
i that of his fallow competitor.

TECH'S SECOND DRIVE
PITTSBURGH SENSATION;
WINS WESTERN HONORS
Technical High school track ath-J
letes continued their spring drive at
the University of Pittsburgh track
meet Saturday afternoon. Local ath
letes outclesses a field of 15 western
high schools in a decisive manner.
The localaaggregatlon tallied 69
points, while Kiski, the runner-up,
was second with 32 points. Other
schools that scored were as follows:
Wilkinsburg High, 21; Schenley
High, 17; Peabod.v High, 15: Meade
ville High, 12: McKeesport High, 11:
Brookville 'High, 9 Ms: Greensburg
High. 5',j.; East Palestine High, 5;
Allegheny High, 314: Monessen High,
3; Williamsport High, 3'; Fifth Ave
nue High, 1 '/(j;, and Irwin High, Vs.
Practically all of these schools are
in the vicinity of the Smoky City, and
with few'exceptions were picked
from larger student bodies. Tech
scored In 12 of the 13 events; the
only contest in which the Maroon did
not figure was the pole vault, and the
best vaulter in the school was left at
home because of scholastic condi
tions. Tho team was again without
the services of live members who will
likely bo eligible for tho interschol
astlcs on the Island next Saturday.
In seven of the thirteen events
Tech took first place, and many of
the seconds, thirds, fourths and fifths
came the way of the Tech lads. It
was another decisive victory for the
local team, the only regret being that
Shaw High school of Cleveland fail
ed to place a team i" the field. Tech
was anxious to win larger laurels by
defeating the team from Ohio. The
victory of Tech is considered all the
more remarkable in view of the fact
that only eleven of the squad were
taken along because of the great ex
pense encountered.
Carl Beck broke the only scholas
tic record when lie heaved the 12-
pound shot a distance of 45 feet 9
inches. This freshman ran away
from the field in both the high and
low hurdles, capturing 15 points sin
ble ijanded. Harry l'.yster captured
both tho events in the 100 and 220-
yard (lashes. John Demming in
both tho relay and half mile, lead the
field in these two events.
In addition to tlte laurels won by
Carl Beck. Clarence Beck was also
a big star in the collegiate class, com
peting for Penn State. He won the
16-pound shot tossing the weight
40 8-10 feet. He was also lirst in
the discus event. Jesse Krall, an
other Harrisburg lad, did splendid
work for Penn State in the hurdles
anil quarter mile.
• Tech will spend this week in prep
aration for the interscholastic meet
on the Island that will be held Sat
urday. This meet should be another
Walkaway for the Maroon, who have
been easy victors during the last two
years. The results of the meet at

Will Drop National
N Rowing Championships
New York, May 21.—The cham
pionship regatta of the National
Association of Amateur Oarsmen
scheduled to be held at Lynn, Mass.,
on July 27 and 28, has been aban
doned.
This action was decided upon at a
meeting of the executive committee
of the association here yesterday.
Members of the committee from
j various parts of the country reported
that the amateur oarsmen were fore
going rowing in favor of military ac
tivity, and that there was little if
i any demand for the regatta.
The cancellation of this fixture
follows closely on the decision of the
Schuylkill and Middle States Rowing
Associations to drop the Schuylkill
and People's regattas, to have been
held at Philadelphia on June 16 and
July 4, respectively, and the Middle
States regatta, set for September 3,
on a course unselected.
