HOLMES 1s the national game slower from a playing standpoint this year than in former years? John McGraw swears it is. So do a lot of-other veteran baseball men. “The only reason the Cubs every | stayed on top as long as they did is because the National League is playing the rottenest ball it has played in a decade,” opines Jawn. “And the same goes for the Phils.”” Some of the caustic individuals may come back with the assertion that McGraw is prejudiced, inas- much as his Giants have loitered around the second division and the cellar most of the season. They cannot, however, say the same re- garding such utterances by other persons long connected with * the game, who, in support of their con- tentions, cite the many pitching come-backs of this season.- Of these probably the most glar- ing is that of Jack Coombs. The iron man was considered through for two years. When Connie Mack un- loaded him on Charley Ebbets at the start of the present season, the wise ones gave Ebbets the laugh. Those guffaws now are strangely stilled. The veteran has been chucking one of the best brands of baseball seen this season. Nap Rucker is another example. The famous old side-wheeler has kept Brooklyn.on the baseball map almost single handed for a decade.

It had been several seasons the Supreme Chancellor of all fingers held the enemy to six blows and won his game, hands down, yet he went out 'against thé Athletics not lomg since and did that very thing, and the twenty-two odd thousand fans who saw him put it over went home convinced that: the Big Moose was right again. ~Georze Chalmers of the Phillies, is also cited. ; ‘The debaters point to a whole raft of batters in support of their theory. The most prominent of these is Chief Meyers, McGraw’s veteran Indian maskman. The Chief finished last season with a slugging average of .286. “He’s done,” chirped the:de- pesters.. Since June the Indian has been slugging the ball at a rate of .386, although his season’s average is a good bit below that, due to poor work at the start of the season. Fred Merkle and Larry Doyle: oc- |- cupy similar positions. Merkle quit playing in 1914 with a .2568 mark, and Doyle but two points above him. They are now 'hitting the ball at a clip above .340 and are crowding Jake Daubert close for the leadership of the league. Art Fletcher is an- other. There are a lot ofsthem. : Whether these facts indicate that the game is slower or not, the affir- ‘mative debaters have a powerful ar- gument. GERMAN-AMERICAN WEEK AT THE PANAMA-PACIFIC [— San Francisco, Aug. 2.—This “is German-American week at the Pa- nama-Pacific exposition. The purpose of the different pro- grams arranged for the six days’ celebration is to show the world that the German-Americans are united. So says Walter Schultz, German com- missioner at the exposition. A parade in which 15,000 German- Americans will march is planned as the feature event of the week. There will be no floats and no military dis- play, the one object being to show the unanimity of opinion and senti- ment among the Teutonic people. Dr. C. J. Hxemare, president of the German-American National Alliance, is to be the principal speaker of the week. During the week a reception will be given to the delegates to the an- nual convention of the Order of Her- man’s Sons which is in session here. Friday a bust of Beethoven will be unveiled in Golden Gate Park. This bust was presented to the singers of San Francisco by the Beethoven choir of New York. Sunday the International Shuotzen- fest at:Shellmound Park, to ¢continue until September 26, will begin with a parade.
