Since his acquisition by the Sox, Joe has had that pur- pose in mind, but until yesterday fail- ed to carry the plot through. 'It was his mighty three base wallop in the eleventh inning that beat the Yankees in the final game of the series here vesterday. The score was 4 to 3.

The one man George would like to have in his outergarden is Frank Schulte, the Chicago Cubs’ veteran outficlder. Stallings believes | Schulte would fit in nicely among the rest of the Braves’ suburbanites. He is willing to part with two good play- ers and a large cash consideration for the veteran. The matter is now up to Manager Roger Bresnahan of the Cubs, but it is doubtful if he will be willing to part with the services of Schulte. COLONIAL LEAGUE Yesterday's Results.

Washington, Aug. 24.—With Italy's declaration of war on Turkey, the American embassy at Constantinople probably will be asked to take over | Italian interests in Turkey and those of Russia, for whom Italy has been acting. H | Californian’s reign | defeated Norman Brookes ! or two beyond. | not McLoughlin will PORT i The lawn tennis situation in these Tnited (in some ways) States is now by a number of kilometres at the intercsting turn it has ever most For a long, long time the U. known i & had Bill Larned occupying a lone- | some throne, and when Larned abdi- cated and McLoughlin took his place generally agreed that the would be even more of a despotism than that estab- lished by hls famous predecessor. At the end of that summer week a vear ago when the Western meteor and fol- Jowed this victory by crushing the mighty Wilding, there was no one in close sight to be even compared with ihe brilliant Californian, who im- nicdiately took his place as the great- cst tennis plaver in the world. it was The Unexpected Shift. But since that double victory over Brookes and Wilding—one of the greatest sportive achievements of all time—McLoughlin’'s crown has been jolted dangerously near the edge of his crimson dome. For since that display of tennis last summer McLoughlin has been beaten in three important matches—twice by Williams and once by Behr—and in each defeat he was clearly outplayed by his winning rival. Out of four matches against R. N. i Willlams the Californian has to battle hard to run up a percentage of .500. He has beaten Williams twice and has lost twice, but in his last start he was beaten by a wider margin than usual. . 1914-19135. When Williams, after losing both matches to Brooks and Wilding, beat McLoughlin at Newport the victory was regarded largely as a fluke. But Williams has proved twice since | that it was no fluke—first by defeat- | ing Behr, McLoughlin’s conqueror at tsabright, and by again beating the . Ccmet by far greater all around play. Causes and Effects. Two reasons only can be offered for this decided shift from the summer of last year. First, that Williams has improved immensely. Second, that McLoughlin, abandoning a large part of his comet attack, hak lost ground for the time being in attempting to develop a base line game and improve his play where it was weakest. It is certainly hard to imagine the Mc- Loughlin of Brookes and Wilding days dropping back so far even against the tennis offered by Williams and Behr. The new game that he has taken up kas left him far more vulnerable. The old invincibility is no longer there, for the present, anyway. But it may be that this shift, even shadowed as it is by defeat, will mean an even greater McLoughlin in a year It will be of more than usual interest to see whether or stick to his changed game at Forest Hills in the rational championship or will, for that week, swing back again to his smashing attack in order to try and regain the laurel that was yanked from his brow last yvear at Newport. McLoughlin, working out a new sys- tem, can hardly beat Norris Williams 1 { as the latter is playing now. Neither is it certain that the Cali- fornian can suddenly swing back to his old style and be as effective as he was a year ago. The next fortnight cnly can outline the answer. Par 101. Good golf fiction yarns are about as rare as course record rounds. They are about as frequent as 2’s on a 300- vard hole. So congratulations to Col. W. B. Hanna for his “Par 101" in the current issue of “Golf.” It is a yarn about a duffer and therefore of lively appeal to 99-100 of those who dabble in Scotia’s sprightly game. In de- vising this story Colonel Hanna hooked together a fine drive, a tidy epproach and a corking putt for a “birdie.” Fuzzy Records. Starting this week Cincinnati held a strangle hold upon some of the cueerest record dividends ever known in the game. The Reds led the league in batting and fielding—with four good pitchers tossed in—yet were last. Are batting, fielding and pitching no longer important parts of the game? Here's another upset: The Reds, leading the league in batting, have made more base hits than any other club. They are fourth in base run- ning and third in the manufacture of cacrifice taps. Yet, with all this offen- sive strength, they are last in run making, have scored fewer tallies than any rival, Tiger Power. The Tigers stand out as the great- ' est offensive club in the game. Their iecord now is 590 runs. Back of them come the White Sox with 514 tallies, with the Red Sox third, below 500. The Tiger attack so far has aver- aged a shade better than five Tuns to the game. This average is almost ex- actly the same as that made by the Mackmen last season before Connie 1 wn wup LIGHT Grantland Rice | ined his own trench and lit the fuse The Tigers leaq the Red Sox ‘n runs, hits and stolen hases. The two are tied in flelding honors. It is now ) merely & question as to the pitching Jennings can cffer against Wood, L.uth, Foster, Shore and company. If Bill James, the latest Detroit ad- dition, can use his right arm as well 4s many think he can, Detroit and Beston will come dashing to October’s wire less than a stride apart. You can write it down as the next thing to a certainty ncw that the Na- tional league race will be won by the smallest percentage on the forty-year docket. No club has yet won with a mark under .600—and no club in this race has anything but a pale blue cutside chance to pess .580. The club 1hat can finish at .580 or better will be the next world series entry from the clder league. m In the meanwhilc the esteemed !

I think Hartford will be easy for us this year.” In looking over the list of players that remain from last year it will be found that the team will be an un- | usually heavy one with such boys ad’ Cabellus the husky center, Conley at halfback, 8id Curran at guard, Dean at tackle, Solomon at guard, Kopolo- witz at end, Parker at quarterback. The Iast named player has been a sub- stitute at this position for two seasons and should prove to be a valuable ac~ quisition due to his experience. Among the new faces on the team will be Hibbard, last year's star of the freshman team; Cowles, Williams, | Peterson, O'Meara and Ventres. These boys give promise of developing into fast players. The first practice will be held on the day after the opening of school. The moleskins will be distributed on the opening day, and short practice, such as kicking, etc., will be held for the, first week.
