Shirley forced Peck, but the Harris men still were full bf fight when they took the field in the last half of the round. Have Bad Luck at Start. But evervthing broke against them at the start. Ray French, who had assumed Collins’ job at second, was first up and he singled to left. Mogridge then messed Mostil's bunt and threw wildly to Harris, who had covered first, and there were two White Sox on the paths. Sheely sac rificed and the National ,Southpaw walked Falk, filling the bases.

Shiriey sacrificed and Mogridge hit for a base, sending Peck to the plate, but Rice popped to Sheely and Matihews grounded to Collin: The Sox tallied in their half of the fourth, which Kamm began with a faulty double that Goslin misjudged. Barrett's out put Kamm at third, and after Crouse made first when Shirley erred, Willie raced home following Matthews' catch of a loft by Eish, who batted for Leverett. The game was deadlocked by Sox in the fifth. Mostil flied to lin, but Sheely doubled to left and scored when Falk followed with a two-base hit to right that Rice ap- parently played rather poorly. This rally was ended by Kamm's loft to Goslin that resulted in a double play. Crouse sent a grounder to Mule. | The National first base guardian fielded the ball so fast that Kamm, who had started home, returned to third, then Shirley dropped the sphere and Crouse made first safely. Red Faber was given a great ova- tion by the fans when he came to the slab in the fifth inning. It was the eran’s first appearance in a league champlonship game this season, an arm operation having kept him on | the side lines Goslin made a good catch of | RKamm’s loft to short left in the fifth. _The blow appeared so safe that Falk left second and turned third, thereby becoming an easy double-play victim. Goose also made a game effort to get Hooper's Texas leaguer that proved damaging in the sixth, barely missing the ball. Two nice plays were turned in by Bluege in the seventh on Kamm and Rarrett. Both grounded sharply to the third sacker's right, and fast throws were necessary for retire- ments. 5 g | YALE DOWNS HARVARD IN FREE-HITTING GAME CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 19.— Yale defeated Harvard's base ball team for the second day in_succes- sion vesterday, § to 7, in a free-hit- ting contest. Yale drove Both the Yankees and the Indians were prodigal of their hits yvesterday. The former required thirteen to make five runs and the latter seventeen to make six. Every player in the game except Hoyt and Bush made at least The home team, for the series, came through with a nint-inning finish, Speaker scoring the deciding marker on Sewell's single with two out. Not a base on balls was issued. Detroit made it three straight from Boston with a 5-to-3 victory. “Rip" Collins kept his opponents’ nine hits well scattered. Bill Piercy, Red Sox pitcher. had to retire in favor of Murray in the first \nning, when he was struck on the head by Burke's sizzling drive. By making a clean sweep of their three-game series with the Athletics with a 5-to-4 win, the Browns rose in the world hand in hand with the Nationals, with whom they are now tied for fourth position. Ken Wil- liams hit his twelfth homer of the season in the eighth, scoring Sisler ahead of him. Behind invincible pitching by Way- land Dean, the Giants swept the two_Crimson pitchers Wear, O'Hearn and the Cinco increases your smoking enjoyment Sox Go Into the Lead. In the next frame the Sox went into the lead after two of them had been retired. A third strike was called on Barrett and. after Crouse singled to right Faber fanned. Hooper, though. dumped a Texas leaguer into left- center that Goslin just failed to grasp firmly after a hard run, and Crouse got to third base. Collins singled Crouse home and Mogridge hit Mos- til, crowding the sacks. Sheely, how- ever, ended the session with a roller to Bluege. Then everything was quiet until that livid ninth. Many National hits went to waste during the western trip because of poor base running. Two were tossed into the discard in the second in- ning of yesterday's game with the White Sox, due to Mogridge's slow stuff on the paths. George was on first when Rice singled to deep cen- ter, but pulled up at second instead of taking advantage of a fair chance to reach third. Then Matthews hit to right and Mogridge was caught at the plate by Hooper's throw. A sparkling piece of flelding by Harris brought about Collins’_ re- tirement in the third frame. With Eddie on first Mostil drove sharply to the National manager's left, but Bucky was across the fleld in a jiffy 1o grab the ball and make a snap throw to Peck for an out. Following Harris' neat bit of work, the White Sox threatened to count in the third inning when Sheely singled Mostil to the far corner. Falk, though, rolled into a fast double play, Harris to Peck - to Shirley. was credited’ with a Phat Kakum two-base hit at the start of the DA and cuts down your expense at the same time. ; Cinco smokers say: «Cincois better than the average ten-cent cigar—and I save 2§ percent.” ' These men know the worth of the Eisenlohr Process and the Eisen- Johr experience of over 70 years.

The stronger teams are forging however, can expect a lot of thrilling games before the 1924 cam- paign closes. Those interested in the Prince Georges-Benning League 2xpect the fireworks to sizzle Sunday. Three teams are tied for the lead in the Prince Georges-Benning loop. Loffler Athletic Club, the Benning nine and the Bradbury each have three straight wins. Tuxedo Athletic Club, Pierce and Capitol Heights are next in line, each having one victory and two defeats. Maryland Park and the Seat Pleasant Federals each have lost their three games. Bradbury Helghts will entertain the Tuxedo nine at 8 o'clock, and will call on its star battery, Burton and Newton, in an effort to remain in the lead. Muller and Turner is the probable, battary for Tuxedo. Seat Pleasant Federals will rely on Sherry and Coates to turn in a win against the Maryland Park nine on the former's ficld. Ryon and W. Morland, are being counted upon by the Maryland Parkers. Considerable interest s manifested in the Pierce Athletic Club-Loffler game at Benning. Car- roll and Mills are the likely boxmen for the Lofflers, while Jones and Wolf are apt to draw the mound assignment for Pierce. Williams or Bauer will toil on the mound for Benning that tackles Capitol Heights on the latter's field. Craft and Me- Cormick should bear watching for Capitol Heights. Knickerbocker Semfors are seeking an opponent tomorrow, according to the manager, who can be telephoned at West 24 being Premier “Athletic Club Midgets planned to oppose the Pierce Midgets today at 4:30 o'clock on diamond No. ‘4 of the Monument grounds.

The American League leaders, who this morning were only eight points ahead of the Tigers, will not be able to strike a blow in their own behalf until tomorrow, as they are scheduled to meet Pittsburgh in an_exhibition game at Toronto this afternoon, before returning to New York for a three-game series with the Red Sox. serfes with the Cardinals with a 3-to-1 triumph. Dean gave Rogers Hornsby two hits and forced his teammates to share two more. Dean also hit for the circuit. Bill Doak, obtained by the Robins Saturday in' a trade with the Cardi- nals for Leo Dickerman, made an au- spicious debut in his new surrroun ings, but had o yield to the slightly superior prowess of Pete Donohue of the Reds. The difference in _their nurling was measured by a 2-to-1 count. Piling up sixteen hits while Al- dridge held his opponents to six, the Cubs beat the Phillies, 9 to 2. Gran- tham and Cotton led the visitors’ at- tack with three bingles apiece. Emil Yde, young Pittsburgh box- man, was the chief factor in the Pi- rates' 4-to-3 defeat of the Braves. Larry Benton also pitched well until the eighth, when the visitors bunched four hits for three runs.

NEW YORK, June 19.—Joe Stoessel, former amateur heavy, did not show signs of becoming an improved Jess Willard, whom he resembles in stat- ure and build, in his bout against Quintin Romero in this city last night. As for Quintin he has changed his natural manner of mixing in such way as to make of himself less of a target for opponents. The result was a crouch which was effective in sav- ing him a lot of punishment, but at the same time made it dificult for him to shoot his own punches, espe- cially his right. Stoessel injured his hand, his right, when it collided with tha fop of Ro- mero’s hard head instead of his jaw, This happened in the fourth round and thereafter Joe had but oney hand to use. Quintin_ got the decision. It was not a thrilling bout—nothing like the Johnson-Balsa battle the other night. MINOR LEAGUE RESULTS AMERIC.

It would tonic up the leathrr- pushing industry hereabouts to an unbelievable extent. And insiders are not so certain that the Ravioli inhaler may not te#n the trick. The writer has just given Ermi tio the all-over, and if ‘Tunmey takes this swarthy lad too cheaply his plight will be not unlike tha® nf the absent-minded fly who lighted upon an electric iron with tfle €oy- rent turned on. Spalla has learned to sock. This is pretty much of a secret. B it may safely be taken as a tip. He has collected a flock of very nifty %t and right hooks, and when he gets set and shoots his right his grave has the telephone numbers of nearby hospitals written all over it He isn’t as clever as Tunney and he may not be o fast. Gene has a repu- tation for hitting, but the writer has never seen wheré he earned it—not against good men, anyway. Spalla probably will show he can hit harder than Gene, but this may. perhaps will be, offset by Tunney's Ereater experience and science in this &ame of give and take. he But don’t overlook that Tunney is not the lissom young man he used to be. He has taken on weight, and while this is supposed to have made him more rugged it _may prove to have slowed him up. Tunney has not been fighting and no man has needed a real course of sprouts more than he. The cruiser champ has got to get by Spalla in good shape if he is to prove an attraction as an opponent for Tommy Gibbons, a match which seems to be looming in the back- ground.
