Philadelphia got to within four points of a tie with Brooklyn on Tuesday and the following day De- troit tied Cleveland temporarily for | firet place in the American. Baoston with Evers back in the line- | up, was the most successful team in the National league. The Braves won four games and lost two, moving into third place ahead of New York. Bos- ton won a 10 inning and an 11 inning game and lost an 11 inning contest. Victories in both games of double headers on Thursday and Saturday gave Brooklyn its four victorfes. Rob- inson’s men are hitting hard but their fielding is weak at times. New York lost five out of seven games. Except for Burns and Roh- ertson, the Giants are not hitting as they did on their western trip. Alex- [ ander won his regular two games for { Philadelphia last week, defeating Brooklyn and Boston. The Phillies | got within four points of Brooklyn | Tuesday, but fell back the latter part of the week. Cincinnati and Pitts- burgh were the winning team in the | western contingent of the National. New York and Boston set the pace in the American league. The Yanlkees | | won seven games by heavy hitting and good fielding, and lost two. The Red | | Sox won six through excellent pitch- ing and good work afleld, and lost one. Foster of the Red Sox, led the pitchers for the week. He shut out | New York Wednesday without a hit. | The Boston pitcher had three strike- outs and gave three bases on balls. Hughes of the Braves increased his no-hit mark to a total of 15 2-3 con- secutive innings. Two-hit games were | turned by Pfeffer, Brooklyn; Russell, Chicago Americans; Dauss, Detrolt, and Sheehan, Philadelphia Americans. PICNIC A SUCCESS !Schemzen Park Scene of Large Gath- | | ering of Fun Lovers at L. V. & C. M. A. A. Annual Outing. The annual outing and picnic of the | Landers Frary & Clark Mutual Aid As- sociation was held Saturday afternoon | at Scheutzen Park, and a large crowd was in attendance. The program ar- ranged by the committee offered an | afternoon and evening of fine merri- contested and the dancing in the big hall afforded the terpsichorean lov- ers plenty of their fling. Much of the success of the affair is due to the untiring efforts of Harold Johnson and Arthur Taylor the committee in charge, who have worked for several months perfecting | the details for the event. | The winners in the various athletic events were as follows: 100-yards dash, open handicap, won by Edward Bailey, 10 1-5 sec- | onds; second, A.

It’s where the candor spreads its sails; The hot tamale rears its crest; The bandarillo spears the quails; And Senoritas do the Test. It's where the una peso talks The language of the two-bit piece: ‘Where Spanish monte proudly walks, And does not care far the police. It’s where the intercostal chiv, Deft wielded, has the best of it; It's where the greaserinos live: (You're Jerry to the rest of it.)

How far is Mexico from here? Quite recently we measured it; We got a falder once from there And jealously we've treasured it.

And if vou find a peso, Mike, 'Twas ’cause the peon wasn’t on; Yes, San Francisco’s quite a hike; But Mexico is t’ell and gone. It would be a fine thing for base- ball in general to have an Ohio club, cither Cleveland or Cincinnati, break into a world series. These two cities have known as many stars as any other two in the game. But neither has even won a flag. If they should evers meet in a championship post- ceason clash the State of Ohio would be mostly debris for several weeks thereafter. The Scalp Hunters. The Giants early S out of 9 games at home. Then on the road they won 19 out of 21. Re- turning home again they dropped 10 cut of 13. Up to the beginning of the present FBrooklyn series McGraw's team had won 20 out of 26 on the road and only 4 out of 22 at hame. Their road record is .770. Their home No wonder today they are looking for the author of “Home, Sweet Hore” with machine guns and shrapnel. in the year lost Nearing July. As the flag situation looms today Detroit will represent the American league in the world series. The Tigers have the same club that was good enough to win 100 games last | Speaker, 103 The Red Sox, minus hiaven't the same club that won games. As to what club will face Detroit from the National league, there has great choice ta make from Philadelphia, Boston New York. We have never seen four as well matched, regardless of the present standings. It will be a Brooklyn, matter of meeting the test through the blazing sun cof July, August and September. But at this junc- ture there hasn't been a sufficient gap form to call forth any prophecy. Coveleski Plus, The Phillies had Harry Coveleski cight years ago. But they couldn't see him. Neither could the Giants that season. They let him wander buck and forth around the mincrs unti] Detroit finally yanked him back Coveleski in there today, working with Grover Cleveland Alexander, would make a bum pitching staff, perhaps.

You hear more than about the nerve it takes from behind and win. is granted But some of the greatest Sisplays we have ever seen shown by front runners who the lead to the finish with but Hope setting the pace. There are times and often when it takes more nerve to hold a short lead than it takes to rush from the rvear. a trifle to come The argument nerve were held Brief Flash. That .300 uprising of Hans Wagner was no brief flash, after all. When the G. O. P.—The Grand Old Player —quit batting .300 twa years ago it was taken for granted that he would never reach the classic mark again. In 1914 and 1915 he slipped well back to the Polite Border, but today he is hitting the ball as lustily as ever, well fixed after a test lasting cver two monthg under weather con- ditions that have worked strongly against the veterans who need the sun The P Tyniroon. Once in a while they have him slipping, Slipping away fame; from the crest of and | nothing | Grantland Rice | But the only slipping I've seen him do is slipping the hit that wins the game. Knocking Out Moran. It has been suggested that Jack Dillon may slip over the haymaker and drop Moran for the count. There always the chance this will happen, | but not sufficiently bulky to call for any sane wagering. Jack Johnson couldn’t knock out Moran in twenty rounds. Willard, who can certainly outhit Dillon, was unable to knock | out the Irish warship. Moran is a| pretty hardy bird. He can stand up under a lot af mauling, and it is no way probable that a fighter thirty pounds lighter is going to topple him into the resin where Johnson and ‘Willard failed. Dillon can hit—and any man who carries artillery of his calibre may plant it once at the proper spot by some lucky chance. But the odds are far the other way. If either man is stopped within ten rounds, Dillon, vho is the “goad little man,” is the one who will have to look out for trouble. We have seen a number of reasons advanced as to way' ‘“‘Baker, Collins and McInnis” can’t hit. On the other paw, one might recall the fact that the season isn’t over yet by several | games. And that October is still at| least a week or two awa. > | PAIRINGS ANNOUNCED. | Linfets | Secretary Whitne, ates That 92 | Entrants Are Equally Divided.
