z‘v‘ N\ ¢ HARRITY SAVES GRIFFS | FROM SECOND DIVISION Supplies Pinch Hit That Sinks Tribe in Duel Where Johnson Outpitches Coveleskie, Allowing Only Three Bingles. BY DENMAN THOMPSON. OR a patient Pat Gharrity is a rather able-bodied citizen, as was} - demonstrated to the satisfaction of a capacity throng and the chagrin of Stan Coveleskie and the Indians yesterday. The husky backstop, who has been out of the game since Labor day, part of the time in a hospital for treatment of an infected foot, celebrated his return in the role of a pinch hitter with the effect of knocking Cleveland out o(! the lead in the American League race and saving the Nationals from | slipping over the narrow line that separates them from the second dfision. = Gharrit feat was performed in the sixth inning of a mound battle between Walter Johnson and the ace of Speaker’s staff. The Griffs were a run to the bad as a result of Barney’s temporary loss of control in the aforementioned round, when a single by Gardner was followed with passes to Sewell, Johnston and O'Neill, the first-named being forced to xhye counting block with the only run obtained by the visitors before ! Walter whiffed Coveleskie to avoid more serious consequences. Rice opened the domestic end of | |+ the sixth with an inficld rap that went i for a single begause of the noncha | Barney Applies Brakes Jance with which it was handled by Gardner, who evidently overlooked ! ¢ the reason for puell’s cognomen, Man o' War. ose Goslin waddled to platter and then to first on four | W alls and the pair of them all-l ks” intentional demise. e Bush, just vesterday reduced | the top to ce in the ng order becaus weak- | with the stick, the ue, but | i raring to horn into the | nd when he got the of- from MeBride he blistered a down the foul line that pro- ji 4 runs, enough to win, and land- | <& him on second.

R. Johnston of St. Paul, the Minnesota state champion, who has scored seventy with frequency this season by R virtue of his long drives. Scattered through the string of players were such prominent golfers as Bobby Jomes of Atlanta, runner- up two years ago, who scored 70 on Friday, pMying with H. Chandler Egan, Portland, twice a champion; Knepper. Sioux City, Iowa, { champion and runner-up to Evans in amateur championship; national open and Jesse Guilford, western Ouimet, amateur champion; the long driver from Massachusetts, | and Bob Gardner, who not only won the national title twice, but carried Cyril Tolley to thirty-seven holes for the British title last year. The favorites for the title among those who watched the preliminary play are Jones and Evans, although Ouimet and Knepper have a strong following and several others in the contest have a goodly following. The foreign invaders, reduced to two by the elimination round on Sat- urday, were not feared by experts, as Hunter and T. D. Armour have both been erratic. Jomes Wins Driving Contest. Driving contests and a team match occupicd the golfers vesterday. Rob- ert T. Jones of Atlanta won the driv- ing contest, in which each performer drove three balls down a seventy- ard-wide aMey marked on the polo 11 in front of the clubHouse.

The long- est drive was made by Robert Gard- ner of Chicago, twice national cham- his third attempt. after getting 215 jon the first drive and topping the ball { for 177 yards on the second. Willie Hunter, British champion, | sclaffed his first drive, getting 1 vards, sliced his second for 208 yard and topped his third for only 145 yards. Jesse Guilford, known as the “Boston siege-gun,” hit for 233 yar on his first attempt and scored 2 on his third, but his second was pull- ed across the boundary, spoiling his chances. Ouimet and Guilford Score. Eight club teams of two each com- peted for the trophy offered annually iners were Francis Ouimet of Boston, former national amateur and open champion, and his clubmate, Guilford, the best scare being 35—34—69.
