It had been known for some time that the Crimson colors would not Le seen on the fleld this year, as Har- vard men have responded to the gov- ernment’s call in such large numbers that none of the old players remain in student life. A statement pub- lished several weeks ago showed that every man on the eleven last fall was in some branch @f War service. REDS CONTINUE T0 GRAB VICTORIES Giants Bow to Kopi etal in Double Header New York, July 13.—Treating the Giants in the same ruthless manner which they recently have employed against foes of less distinction and prestige, Matty’s Cincinnati Reds sailed into the Manhattan bunch right and left on the Polo Grounds yester- day and nailed their shoulders to the mat in both ends of a double header. The scores were 2 to 1 and 5 to 1. It was the first twin bill dropped by the Giants in 1917. It is through, no fault of the Reds that the Giants own such a com- manding lead. Cincinnati now has tossed the Giants for five losses in the last six games plaved between these teams. There no longer is any doubt that the Reds are going somewhere. Perhaps if Matty would stop writ- ing each week in his newspaper col- umn that the Giants will win in a walkover he might even be conceded a look in for the pennant. The Reds surely looked like a chipper lot yesterday and they pack an awful punch. In the first game Ferdie Schupp was nosed out in a close pitchers’ battle with young Mike Regan, but in the second game the Rhinelanders played horse with the Giants. Hal Chase especially took delight in making monkeys of the Polo Grounders in this encounter. He made a triple, double and single, scored two runs and drove in two others.

Barnes got a bad start in the first game, the visitors making four runs in the opening in- ning on Konetchy’s error, a pass, doubles by Hornsby an¥ Cruise and Miller’s triple. Doak was hit hard and often, but ! thig early quartet of runs gave him a lead the home team could not over- come. Ragan was pounded fiercely in the second game.

Thoe Pioneer-Pirates game will be the opener, commencing at 2 o'clock. The boys from the Ellis street diamond have put up a phenominal game to date, taking part in three games, in which they have prevented their op- ponents from crossing the plate. The Pirates look to many to be in a slump but their adherents are hopeful that the “jinx” has departed, and tomor- . row will see the “Nigger Hill"” boya displaying the brand of baseball that placed them in a position to claim the city championship at the outset of the present season. “Bosh”. Schmidt, the Pirates star slabman, will be on the firing line, and those who witnessed his work against Billy Dudack on the Fourth of July are still talking of the bril- liant battle he gave the Muhlenberg college boy. The Annex-Kamels bat- tle should also be a warm one. The Kamels are smarting under the defeat administered by the Pioneers last Sat- urday, and are going out tomorrow to seek vengeance on Manager McConn's proteges. Both teams are playing high class ball, and a warm battle should ensue. Athletic Events.

ANDERSON BESTS SAWYER New Yorker Reaches Semi-Finals Aftes Gruelling Match—Edwards Broth- ers and Ouimet Also Win, i Midlothian Country Club, Blue Isl- » and, Ill, July 13.—Three hard-fought matches and one record breaking con- ‘test marked the third round of the Western amateur golf championship tournament yesterday.
