THURSDAY EVENING, BENDER IS BACK WITH PHILLIES Manager Moran Anxious to Keep Team in Winning Stride "CHIEF'^BENDE^ Philadelphia, June 28. "Chief" Bender, the veteran Indian pitcher, who was with the Phillies last year, is to be given another trial by Pat Moran, and will join the Phils at Brooklyn to-day. Bender accepted terms from Moran yesterday. The salary he is to receive for the re mainder of the season la not an nounced. Moran has been making every ef fort possible to secure a pitcher to help the Phillies through the hot race for the pennant. Scouts have been sent through the -South and West, but without success. Pitchers Are Scarce Several pitcher? were looked over in the West, and it has been reported at various times that offers had been made for Loudermilck, of Columbus, and Keating, of Kansas City, but Manager Moran stated last night that none of the clubs owning pitchers that would help his club would agree to sell until September 1. The Phillies have six games with Brooklyn in four days and are in a red-hot fight with the Giants for first place, and Moran needs a pitcher who can be used as a relief for his regu lars. At present he has only Fittery, a southpaw, and believes that Bender will prove his worth at this critical stage. Bender has. been practicing with the Phillies almost all season and has been pitching for indepen dent clubs. Moran says the Indian is in better condition at present than at any time last season and has decided to take him along. SCORES OF YESTERDAY National I.eaKue New York, 1; Philadelphia, 2.

SPORT MYSTERIES On certain days a batsman swings Upon the bally pill; He lands upon It -with a thud And drives it where he will; And then the next day, in a tran.ce.

THE PITCHING TEST "The test of pitching ability," notes an exchange, "is not in games won and lost, but in the number of earned runs allowed by a pitcher." This is the system which the American League has adopted. It sounds reasonable enough, but, after all, is it the main test? Take the case of Christy Mathewson, When Matty was working an earned run meant nothing to him at all. When the score was I—l or 2—l or I—o he was out there working at top speed. But let the Giants get him five or six runs, and what happened? Immediately Matty began to ease up and save his arm for another day. He could see no reason in pitching his shoulder off when he had a fat margin to work on. With Matty It was a case of win by as easy a route as possible, and save, where ever the occasion offered, his best stuff for another start. You may recall how Matty used to win one gajne l—o and a few days later pick up another 8 to 6. He was frequently batted hard, but in the main only on those flays when his mates were also scoring heavily. Last season Alexander was the only pitcher good for thirty victories. The thirty-game winners are now almost extinct. Vet Matty averaged thirty victories a year for six consecutive seasons—from 1903 through 190S— mainly by working when he had to and resting when the chance ar- to pike along at an easy clip. TEST OF CLASS The test of class is ability to adjust one's game to the occasion—to be able to ease off when the chance arrives, and then get back at top speed when the call comes. Johnny Ball, one of the greatest of all golfers, would on one day meet an opponent who had an 83 and Ball would win 2to 1. The next day he might meet a man who had a 76, and Ball would again win, 2 to 1. He had such tine control of Ills game that he could purposely ease up for a rest and save his best pace for a harder match. The average contender can never do this. If he starts to easing up or loafing he finds it impossible to get going again. When the call comes for a spurt he tinds his game is gone. Colin was no great record breaker. There were other horses which ran in faster time. But Colin could always travel just fast eno'ugh *to win. At some period of the race he set a pace so fast no rival entry could hold it, after which Colin took his own time in finishing the drive, using only as much speed as he needed to get there first. HOW TO BE AX UMPIRE An umpire should stand up and call Each passing out —each strike and ball; He should not try and counter back With any sulphur-lined attack, . And if the player throws a fit, y He merely has to mutter—"Git"— The while his thumb may delegate The road where clubhouse showers wait. Colonel Bert Leston Taylor In "Golf Illustrated" suggests that "the open stance is better for hoeing." This is an unimportant detail. In hoeing the main thing is the proper grip and to keep one's eye on the weed. An hour of hoeing will generally keep one's head down. Also one's back. "Where would the Red Sox be without Babe Ruth?" asks an exchange Why bother? The Red Sox are not without Babe Ruth. In the same way, how rich would John D. Rockefeller be without his money? o iT ey Schu . pp - °f the Giants, is verging upon July without a defeat. Rube Marquard carried his winning ways to July 7 in 1912 before thev got his range.

WELLY'S jjf CORNER Blue Ridge League officials are trying hard to keep going, but It looks like a blow up after July 4. There Is no denying the fact that minors are being hit hard this season. Chambersburg is a loser, likewise Hanover, and these towns are not paying with good teams. Manager Pat Moran finds It neces sary to go after the veterans and get them back In the game. Chief Ben der may prove a wonder. He has been pitching good ball. After July 4 the majors may have plenty ma terial to sign up If the minors go to pieces. There is a general belief among fans In minor league towns that it would be a good thing to cut out baseball until after the war. With few exceptions the game is far from bolng attractive. What will be need ed after the war is one or more outlaw leagues to start things hum ming. It must be handed to the Harris burg Division team of the Philadel phia and Reading Railway League, WRITERS WANT M'GRAW'S SCALP Ask National Head to Reopen Case; Anxious to Fur- j nish Proof New York, June 28. At a special meeting of the New York chapter of the Baseball Writers' Association at the Press Club yesterday, It was unanimously resolved to request Presi dent John K. Tener and the directors rectness of their reports of the Mc- McGraw case. The writers, whose reports of in terviews with Manager McGraw, of the New York Club, were repudiated, seek an opportunity to establish the cor rectness of their reuports of the Mc- Graw interview at Pittsburgh and to have the slur which they say was cast upon journalism eliminated ''and the truth established." Copies of a resolution adopted are to be sent to President Tener, the president of every National League club, Manager McGraw and each chap ter of the writers' association throughout the country. A committee of three was appointed to investigate and prepare the writers' side of the case, with authorization to employ le gal aid to present the case properly to the National League if the subject is reopened. The resolution reads: Wrltcrx' ItcNOlutlonN "Whereas, John J.
