In fact, 1916 is beginning to bulge on ahead. There were eleven famous upsets last So far this year Jack John- son has been beaten, the Mackmen dropped to last place, the scoffed at Phillies have set the uar‘e’ the National league, McLoughlin been beaten twice, Travers, a' star match player, has won the open ' champlonship and lost at his best | style of game to Travis and Marston, New: York rivals—one of fifty-four | and the other of twenty-one—in two' championship matches, and Ouimet has joined Travers by losing to a youngster entered in his second' amateur championship.

With the aid of unusual speed, a quick breaking corve and an occasional spitter the Cub star had the Giants surrounded from the jump. But for an infleld fumble and a base cn balls not a New York batter would have reached first base. There was nothing that bore the slightest re- semblance to a hit and no play over which any question could be raised. Lavender enters the hall of fame without a blemish on the big stunt of his pitching career. PORT LIGHT Grantland Rice There are now ten star golfers to one of two years ago. There are now at least ten golfers in America, rated as outsiders last season, who are likely to beat Travers, Ouimet or Evans in important matches at any stage. There is no longer any chance to play three or four men against the fleld, And within another year or two there will be at least twenty golfers with an outside chance to finish first, against two last season. We are beginning to spread out a bit, sportively speaking, in this broad commonwealth. Here’s another detail. Only a few vears ago the only sporting interest ic be aroused in this country was at haseball, football or boxing. Now golf and tennis are drawing their thousands as well. At the golf crhampionship at Detroit there were no more eager or more interested spectators than Ty Cobb, Eddle Collins, Clarence Rowland, Buck Weaver and Jack Fournier. A season o1 two back and you couldn’t have dragged them out to a golf match with a grappling hook. The Alibi. “I am a most unlucky slob,” Said the pitcher to the umps; “I never catch that fellow Cobb Tn one of them there slumps.” Which recalls the fact that another famous upset for 1916 has been left out, Cobb went to bat twentty-four times without getting a safe blow. Tf this isn’t an upset there is no such word in the public prints. Tdnes to Jay McLaughlan, We've bumped out dope to stars who hit Or come through with the winning clout; To those with laurelled beans who sit The golf situation has proved several more or less important details. One is that no one or two men any lenger rule the game in Ameflm.] And listen to the cheering shout.

Yesterday after- noon they took two games from Giants, the first by a score of 3 to 1 and the second 2 to 0. There may not be anything unusual in beating the Giants. It is getting to be a hab- it with most of the other teams, but Yyesterdny McGraw's men were play- ing great ball, that is all but one, a second baseman named Larry Doyle, which is further proof of the adage that a chain is no stronger than its weakest link.

The starting hour has been fixed at 8:30 o'clock, and Manager Walsh states that this is the hour when the milling will commence. He also stated that there would be no long and tedious delays between the bouts, Interest in the show has reached a fever pitch in this city and in Hart ford, where two of the star scrappers 1eside. It is expected that several hundred enthusiasts, friends of Ames and Waltz will be on hand to watch the work of the pets. One thing how- ever that.will be impressed upon these fans, is that there shall be ao lcud noise or disturbance tolerated. On one occasion last a crowd from the Capitol City here and their actions were of such a nature that Chief Rawlings deemed it ad- visable to put a stop to the show. It iz hoped that no repetition of this oc- currence will happen again. All the contestants are in the pink of condition and one of the best cards that has ever been staged in this city should be the outcome. Ames by his hard training has placed himself in condition to put up a stiff battle, and no mention need he made of Martin who has fought his way to the top Tound if his class in the metropolis, The semi-final between Jimmy Reilly and Sammy Waltz ig the center of at- traction for the local fans. Reilly is in tip top shape for the fray, and this assures those in attendance of wit- nessing a fast mill, as Waltz always gives a good account of himself when he starts.
