'.much trouble getting the better of
'Johnny Dundee, of New Tork, last
night In an open-air bout held at
. Shlba Park, the fight only being faat
.in flashes. At the beginning of the
''bout Dundee started to rush matters,
after Chaney had chopped the
'New Yorker several times with his
'hefty rights and lefts this somewhat
'slowed Dundee, who did not care to
Hake a chance after the initial ses

Chaney got In several body smashes

to get In too close, resorted to jab

OPEN EVENINGS
FRIDAY EVENING,
TAKE HAND TRAP
ON WATER TRIP
No Excursion in Birch Bark
Craft Complete Without
Trapshooting
When the warm days of summer
coax the wanderlust bacK to life
in the breasts of owners of the birch
bark craft, something is sure to hap
pen.
That something takes the form of
a canoe trip In the case of a con
siderable number of men who love
to dip their paddles In some seques
tered stream, glide swiftly out of
earshort of the hubbub and rush of
a metropolis and enjoy the freedom
and healthfulness of the open coun
try.
A large proportion of those who
take these trips feel that to come
away without a gun is to leave an
Important accessory of the luggage
behind. Still they are not satisfied
to merely shoot at stationary tar
gets. and under the new game laws,
hunting has been restricted, so that
any new method of gratifying the
natural desire to shoot meets with
Instant and enthusiastic approval
when it supplies moving targets.
The Hand Trap Welcomed
Hence the Introduction of hand
traps will meet the peculiar require
ments of propellers of the birch bark
as nothing else can. Weighing only
six pounds and capable of folding
into a compact bundle, the hand
trap may be readily stowed under
the thwarts of the canoe, and upon
landing is quickly and easily made
ready to propel the "clays'' with the
speed of the wind or to lazily sail
straightaway out over the stream.
Any angle, from a right or left
quartering "bird" to a dead straight
one. and any distance up to 100
yards, with the "Skimmer" upside
down, on edge or In any other con
ceivable position, may be released
from this pox table trap capable of
suiting the need of the most ardent
"gun bug."
Trapshooting has formerly been
Impossible for the one who would
combine the pleasures of canoeing
with the thrills of smashing the
elusive clay birds, but hereafter
parties of canoeists will prolong their
stay in camp in order to prove their
skill at "killing" these "birds" ere
they reach the opposite shore, and
other parties paddling down stream
will put just a little more ginger
into their stroke that they may ar
rive in time for a team match.

IHE HALF-MILE POST
Sixteen major league clubs have just skidded past the half-mile post
on their jaunt in the general direction of Pennantville or Flagtown-on
the-Pike.
Twelve of these sixteen clubs are now running for exercise, Sweeney
and the gate.
Another, the Philly contingent, is still around, but a second choice. If
the half-mile post is to offer any line upon the finish it is now merely a
matter as to whether the Giants are to meet the White Sox or the Red
Sox next October.
THREE REMAIN'
The Giants are not entirely out of danger by several kilameters, but
they have enough stuff to win with, barring only an epidemic of accidents
and casualties.
But the American League race Is another matter. The Tigers have
slipped badly. The Browns have disappeared; the Cleveland Indians have
suffered a big drop from last year's standing at this date, and the Yankees,
handicapped by a weak batting outfield, have practically no chance to win.
This leaves the same two ball clubs which finished I—2 last season to
carry on the debate.
The two Soxes only remain in the battle of the Red and White. And
these two clubs undoubtedly will be the sole survivors at the mouth of the
dusty stretch.
THE SOX JTBILEE
A world series between New York and Chicago clubs would carry the
greater effect in a spectacular way. as these two crowded citadels have
never met in any post-season championship debate.
But this doesn't mean that New York and Chicago are to meet. Boston
has arranged a world series affair in. four of the last five years, un.til now
she begins to look upon the October windup as an institution. The Red
Sox won in 1912, the Braves in 1914, the Red Sox in 1915 and 1916.
So with one exception, 1913, a world championship banner has been
fluttering above the Massachusetts metropolis since 1912.
A good many of the present Red Sox outfit have already known three
world series championships. Most of the others have known two. They
are a seasoned, hard fighting bunch—at their best under heavy fire or out
upon hostile soil. They have Ruth, Leonard, Shore and Mays, all in first
class condition, with Foster and Penn.ock* showing improved form. The
White Sox have their work cut out to keep this delegation in subjection
once the two clubs get within sight of the stretch.
THE 1916 DEFICIT
The White Sox look to <?e a better ball club than thsy were last year
They have been getting better pitching and have been more consistent in
! their general play. And last year's finish between the two was close
enough. Here it is:
Red Sox—Won 91, lost 63. Percentage, .591.
| White Sox—Won 89, lost 65. Percentage, .578.
Briefly, the Red Sox finally triumphed by the narrow margin of two
games. And this margin was established on Boston's last visit to Chicago
where Carrigan's club won the aeries. This means*that one single series
decided the pennant race, which is about as close as one would have it
Both Chicago and Boston are moving along well beyond the pace they dis
played last season, and the indications now are that-both will finish above
.600, with more than ninety victories.
If Eddie Collins and Joe Jackson both get well above .300, where they
belong. White Sox chances will be heavily improved.
TIGERS SLIPPING
The Tigers, despite Cobb's hurricane drive, are slipping. In 1915 they
packed away 100 victories. Last year they dropped back to eighty-seven
victories. This season they must improve materially to win as many as
eighty-five games.
Cleveland and Detroit both carry a world of power—both pack the
punch—but both are handicapped by erratic pitching.
The Giants were supposed to be oversubscribed with temperament. But
las long as temperament can hit, pitch, field and run it is not much of a
handicap.
If Christy Mathewson can win. a pennant for Cincinnati we know the
name of the man who will finally settle ths world war and bring about
peace.

IN GOLF MATCH
Edwards Boys Meet Ouimet
and Anderson in Semi-
Finals Today
Chicago, July 13.—Donald Ed
wards, medalist, will play Francis
Ouimet, former national champion,
and Kenneth Edwards will play
John G. Anderson, of New York, in
the 36-hole semifinals of the West
ern Amateur Golf championship to
day, as a result of yesterday's
matches at the Midlothian Country
Club, the home of the Edwards
brothers.
Ouimet had a runaway match with
Peter Barnett, a youthful Chicagoan,
winning 14 up and 13 to play. Don
ald Edwards eliminated Jack May,
Argentina champion, 3 and 2. Ken
neth Edwards ousted Jesse Guilford,
Massachusetts champion, 1 up, after
a gruelling contest in which Guil
ford set a course record of 71 in the
forenoon and gained a lead of four
holes.
Anderson, coming from behind
when Ned Sawler fell off on the
last nine, defeated the former West
ern champion 1 up.
I.nrgt? Gallery Sees Good Goir
Most of the large gallery followed
the Sawyer and Anderson match,
and saw good golf most of the 36
holes.
Sawyer made the first round In 75
to Anderson's 77. For seven of the
third nine, Sawyer shot an even par,
but lost in the twenty-third and
twenty-fourth holes when Anderson
sank long downhill putts for a 3 and
a 2, each under par, both scoring
par 36 for the third quarter.
From this point. Sawyer was off
"his gait, coming home with 42 to
Anderson's 37. Sawyer topped the
second on the twenty-eighth hole
from the rough to the creek and lost
the hole. He halved the next two'
In par, but found rough and traps
on the thirty-first and the match
was squared.
He stayed square on the next hole
by a nervy thirty-foot sloping putt,
after putting his second in a pit.
Anderson was trapped at the next
green and made his opponent one up
again, only to square the struggle on
the thirty-fourth, where Sawyer
again went wild.
The Easterner took the lead by
pitching a 140-yard mashie eight
inches from the seventeenth cup for
a birdie three, and won the battle
by halving the thirty-sixth hole in
par four. His total was 73 for this
round, against Sawyer's 78.
Binghamton Players Sore
Over Cut in Salaries
Binghamton, N. J., July 13.—The
Binghamton team greatly felt the
I effect of the 25 per cent, salary re
! duction yesterday, when several
I plavers decided to camp elsewhere
I than Johnson City for the remain
der of the season.
Among those who will seek new
basball pastures are Frank Caporel,
formerly with the Colonels, who was
traded this year to Binghamton.
"Cappy" does not give the reduc
tion as his reason for a change of
heart, but that he wishes a change
In scenery. It is announced that
Caporel and his wife have been fur
nished transportation to Mt. Clem
ens, Mich.
Lefty Braithwood, another pitcher
and Outfielder Daniel Senno were
given their releases. John Mlljus
states that he probably will go to
his home in Pittsburgh or join an
other club outside the State League.
Gonzales contemplates a trip to visit
Armando Marsans, a Cuban player
with St. Louis.
Catcher Mack Wheat notified
Brooklyn of the conditions in Bing
hamton in the hope that the Ebbets'
club would make up his reduction
in salary.
It is believed here that Frock,
Irving, Kay, Shields, Wagner, Hart
man. Pepe, Barnhardt, Murphy and
Ancker will stick with Binghamton
and possibly Wheat.
It is stated that Braithwood has
an offer from Fort Wayne in the
Central League, but may return to

pitching two games a week in semi
pro games. Senno may land with an
International League club.
