Tn the final period with Hoblitzel on third and Gardner on second Barry popped up a little foul. O’Neil yelled that he had it, but the wind carried the ball into fair ground, where he missed it and Hoblitzel' came -home with the winning run. Speaker scored from third in the first inning on ex- actly a similar play when Smith popped and Gardner muffed after the wind had driven the ball into fair ter- ritory. Long drives were features, the wind being of vast assistance in making them go for extra bases. Janvrin's playing was brilliant, while Walker, Hoblitzel and Gandill did most of the hitting.

New York, May 12.—One of Wild Willie Donovan’s new crop of pitch- ers stopped the White Sox yesterday at the Polo Grounds. 'Twas none other than Master Nicholas Cullop, who, forsooth, prior unto yesterday’s ruction had been used in only frag- ments of games. This time Squire Donovan laid the yoke of an entire game upon the willing shoulders of Master Nicholas of the southerly wing and that conscript from the Federal League did more than passing fair. He did nobly, and the score was 2 to 1 in favor of the Yankees. r.

Mr. Ebbets has been” picking the Superbas to perform this feat for some seasons past, but until 1 year the team has never concc its owner’s bright praphecies. This year, however, with a seasoned team and a pitching staff second to none in the league it looks as if the Dodgers might come through and, barring accidents, there no reason why they should not. Robinson is to be commended for building up the Brooklyn team to He has shown excellent judgment in picking his men for positions on the team, and in very few cases have his selections fallen down. His pitching staff, composed mainly of youngste is the envy of all the rival managers, and there is not one member of it who would not be grabbed up if Robinson were compelled to let him £0. The playing of the Dodgers, too, has revived interest in the great n game in Brooklyn these past two years, and even if the Dodgers co not come out on top the fans will stick by the team. Picture shows the manager and a few of his stars. Top, left to right, Daubert, Robinson and Stengel. Bottom, left to right, Rucker and Wheat.

May 12—From now in all the championship basebali among Princeton, Yale and Harvard the professional cach team will be allowed to remain on the bench and direct the play. The baseball committees at meeting in New York came to this decision, which is to go into effect this spring, according to the an- nouncement made here today.

Such practice as having the player while at bat or elsewhere, constantly looking on the bench for signals and instructions will not he in evidence, The Yale coach will act as a teacher adviser and will be present on the bench to give the team the benefit of his judgment and experience when a point comes up or a situation arises a member (in a game.” of-war between teams in various de- | partments of the concern, is creating much interest.
