Boston, June 24.—History repeatea itself yesterday afternoon, the Braves winning from the Dodgers by a 3 to 2, the same score as Tuesday. Dell opposed his former. brother in arms Pat Ragan, who had much the better of it. Dell was wild as a hawk at times and often the bases were jammed. Ragan had fine support, the only error of the game being a slip by Maranville, due to unneces- sary haste.

If— Those who figure that interest in baseball is waning swiftly should take 2 trip to Chicage this fall IF Chicago's iwo entries should re-establish the frenzy of 1906 with another exclusive | ay's ! Saturday against the Larkspurs Cook County world series between Cubs and Sox. We are willing to wager-a reason- able husky stipend that a 1915 series of this sort will draw far bigger crowds who will pay out far more money than the 1906 affair developed. But before pushing this wager further it might be just as well to wait until Cubs and Sox have turned the trick. The California Invasion, The coming invasion of California by Eastern tennis stars will be ob- served with more:than usual interest. The East is sending first class talent on the trip across, butr cCalifornia, in a tennis way, has always had most of the rockmarks of Gibraltar. ‘What- ever else they can d% well in that ex- cellent state they can certainly thump a tennis ball with all the fervor, eclat and adroitness there is, or are. Leading a charge gainst a company headed by MecLoughlin is no part of hn easy assignment, take it anyway you will. So Go the Best. The late John Graham, killed at Ypres, was the golfer picked by Chick Evans as the greatest amateur in the game. Lacking the necessary physical sirength—-he had only one lung—Cap- tain Graham was never able to survive the grind of a championship. But for beauty of form and perfection in execution he was rated even beyond ililton and Ball, with a dozen cham- pionship to their credit. By Statistics. One can prove an innumerable lot cf things by use of the ever succu- ient statistics. It was shown a yvear or so ago how the Giants won pennants by base run- ning. Yet the Brayes won a cham- pioship last season and pilfered only ot odd intervals. And today Fritz Maisel and Doc Cook have stolen as nany bases as the entire Red Sox c¢lub-—but for all that the Yanks are still a bleak stride or two back of the Bostonian corps. All Nebraskans haven't Col. Bryan's viewpoint. The Phillies haven't been able to protect their Jead the last fort. night, but no one has yet observed Alexangder, also from Nebraska, in the act of leaving the club. The Western Stymie. 'I_‘he ‘West, prevalent mn lawn tennis and now predominant in baseball has PORT LIGHT a hard time obtaining & winning grip in golf. The last three amateur champlonships have all been won by "Cravers and Ouimet, from the East. | While the last four open champion- ships, won by McDermott, Ouimet, Hagen and Travers, were all landed ty Eastern entries. The West has a fine variety of good golfing material, but not a sufficient amvunt to over- throw the East. And with Travers, Ouimet and Hagen still on guard, and all young men, the day of Western victory doesn’t seem to be any too close at hand to start a wseries of cheers underway, ‘Undoubtedly. I can hit 'em a mile with a wooden club— I can pitch 'em out of the bunker’s ruts; 1 can thump 'ém stralgnt and true to the green— But wotthehell when you miss the putts! —Larry Ty didn't mean it ana Ban didn’t say fit. Thus another threatened diplomatic break invelving the coun- honor, peace, happiness and prosperity is averted. ANNEX VS. MOOSE. The Annex baseball team and the Moose team of the Fraternal league will clash Sunday afternoon at 3 p. m., at Annex field. As both these ‘teams have a large following a rec- ord crowd is expected. The Moose have such well knewn players as Dr. Zwick, Coogan, Berry, Bloom, Kahms as well as other well known players of tals eity. The Annex will rely on their star batter, Blanchard, who pitched his team to a victory last as well as twirling a no-hit game and Holleran will take the receiving end of it. The Moose will use either Dr. Zwick or Coogan in the box with Bloom catching. has charagter to it. POOR OLD ATHLETIGS STILL GOING DOWN' Yanks Gather Two Victories at | Expense of Once Great Club Philadelphia, June 24.—The Yank- | ees won both ends of the doublehead- er with the Athletics here yesterday taking the opener in ten innings by a score of 3 to 2, and the nighteap over the regulation route by a count } of 15 to 7. The second engagement produced a mew major league record for wildness by a pitcher when Bru- no Haas, late of Worcester Academy handed out sixteen bases on balls and made {hree wild pitches.
