In the opener pe Benton yielded ten solid blows, le Dick Rudolph was toying with Giants, but the second contest was jductive of a spirited pitching duel een Al Demaree and Arthur ht. e Glants were never dangerous at stage of the first game. They e completely baffled by the sturdy lle Bronx boy and gleaned only five off his delivery. These were kept well scattered that only one Giant past first base. That was in the 'ond inning, when Zimmerman, man up in that frame, hit to the jce in left center for two bases. Rudolph then put the screws on il fanned Fletcher and Smith, Zim- rman stealing third while the lat- operation was in progress, and lke was retired on a grounder to iwlings. Thereafter the Giants sub- ted rather tamely, and the Braves led upon overwhelming lead in a innings. lings’ men put their first run er in the second inning, when Ko- hy walked and then raced home Smith's double to right.

Philadelphia, Sept. 14.—The Brook- Iyn Robing split even in a twin en- pagement with the ambitious but fast- tading Phillies here yesterday after- noon. The scores were 1 to 0 and 7 to 3, the visitors annexing the 7 to 3 affair. The Dodgers made a game effort to pvercome some fancy pitching by Alexander in the initial affray, but he was not to be denied. Jeff Pfeffer was pitching exceptionally on his own wocount, and in the matter of hits the wo teams were deadlocked, each re- pording seven. Not until the eleventh Inning were the Phillies able to pene~ lrate th defense of Pfeffer. In this frame they put over the lone tally of the game. Pfeffer did not allow a hit for four Innings. In the fifth Luderus got a wngle, and In the seventh Whitted doubled after two were out. In the ninth Stock opened with a single, and was sacrificed ahead by Schulte, but Whitted and Niehoff fanned. After Brooklyn had been disposed of in the eleventh, Evers opened with a single. Stock sacrificed, but Evers was out at third on Schulte’s ground- »r to Pfeffer. Schulte mado good by stealing second, and scored on Whit- ted’'s single. The second contest was just as loose as the first was tight. The Phillies obtained a lead of three runs off Rube Marquard in the first three in- aings by bunching four hits, but after the Robins had pounded Fittery oft the pitching peak in the fifth, Mar- quard did not permit a runner to reach first base. In the fifth Brooklyn hit for four singles and a double before a man zould be retired. Lavender replaced Fittery with two runs in and the bases loaded. He walked Stengel, torcing the third run home, and two more counted before the side was out. | Kelly—“Absolutely the Last Game” Cutshaw lifted the ball into the left field seats for a home run with a run- ner on first base in the ninth. The score: (First game). 3 h. ..00000000001—1 7 0 Brooklyn 00000000000—0 7 1 Batterie: Alexander and Killifer; Pfeffer and Miller. (Second game). o e.

To date the schedule is as follows: October 20, Pittsfield High, iin Pittsfield: October 27, Holyoke High, in Holyoke; Nov. { High, in this city (league game). The | other league game with New Haven ! not been definitely decided on, as the Elm city boys desire a mid-week con- | test. Efforts are being made to se- cure a game with Torrington, Nauga- | tuck, Chicopee or Suffield for the sea- son’s opener in this city. The boys showed plenty of ‘““pep” at | yesterday’s practice. Olcott who Is trylng out for the half-back position, looks exceptionally good to the coach- es. He is a fearless little fellow, who injects plenty of ginger into the game. | Williams, of last vear'’s champions, was shifted to fullback in yesterday’s practice, where he showed signs of being a little slow, but the coach has hopes that this will be eliminated. Johnson another of the 1916 team is showing up very well in practice, and i he may also be shifted from the line {to the back fleld. Practice will he held daily until the opening of the season. 1—10 P.C. .660 | 605 | 10, Hartford | { which will be played in that city has' BARNES PLAYS WELL Quaker City Golfer Turns in a Course Record of 67 at Westmoreland Club Tourney. Chicago. Sept. 14 |of Whitemarch Va vesterday James M lley, Philadelphia, a strong bid to cover the Western open golf cham- pionship by setting a course record o2 7 at the Westmoreland Country club in the first 18 holes of the 72-hole | contest. Barnes, who won the title in 1915 at Minneapolis and lost it last year at Milwaukee to Walter Hagen, and with his score five under par for the 6,446-yard links, out- | stripped his nearest competitors, Frank Adams of Beverly and Jack Hutchinson of Glenview,. by three strokes. Starting with a par four on the 341-yard first hole, Barnes annexed a par five at the 484-yard second, and, with a dead midiron pitch to the $47- vard third, scored a birdie three. His midiron tee shot on the 21l-yard fourth was on the edge of the green, land he holed a goodly putt for an- other birdie two. Three putts put him one over par on the 33lyard fifth, but, after renewing familiarity with {par on the seventh, he pitched dead |to the hole on the 150-yard eighth and holder a birdie two. Another par gave him 34 for the first nine, two un- der par. He started on the return trip with a birdie three by virtue of a ten-foot putt, and repeated on the 44l-yard twelfth, sinking his third shot from twelve feet. * He was even with par {on the next three holes, but a pulled iron on the long seventeenth hole cost him a five, despite a drive of 325 iyards. Nothing daunted, he drove 315 yards on the eighteenth, mashied 140 yards more and sank a fifteen- foot putt for an eagle 3, scoring 33 | for the second nine. Frank Adams, who recently came to Chicago from French Lick, and Hutchinson, who was for several vears at Allegheny, went out in 36 each and returned in 34 for a pair of 0s. They were closely followed by I. J. Brady of Boston and Jack Bur- gess of Washington, D. C., who scored 72 each. One stroke behind came Gil | Nicholls of New York, Fred McLeod of Washington, Eddie Loos of Phil- adelphia, Willam Kidd of St. Louis, and James Donaldson of Chicago. The champion, Walter Hagen, ex- erienced difficulties on the outward ip, taking 38, and finished with 74. The same total was returned by James Simpson of Milwaukee, W. C. Sherwood of Memphis, Emmet French of York, Penn. and George simpson and Jack Burke of Chicago. A record field of 138 players start- ,ed, only a half dozen being amateurs, and 46 returned scores better than 180. None of the amateurs entered has gained prominence in tournament play and the professionals apparently are in no danger of losing the title, which has never gone to an amateur but once, Chick Evans winning it in 1910.

White, cap- tured the feature race of the day, the 2:07 class trot for $3,000. First money was divided in each heat, Brescia win- ning the first, Al Mack the second and Bacelll the final. Al Mack finished first in the third heat. but crossed the wire while breaking. According to the rules the judges gave the heat and race to Bacelli, otherwise Bacel- 1i’s score would have been 2-2-2 and Al Mack 6-1-1. Ima Jay had an easy time in the 2:11 trot. Ernest guiding the mare to the front in straight heats, Jean- ette Speed, Cox up ,took second place. May Boy won the 2.18 trot first division, in straight heats, winning a trophy, while Fighting Chance re- peated the trick in the second divi- sion. My Leaf was given a stiff battle in the 2:24 trot. Prince Lyndon chal- lenged in the stretch in the first heat, but lost by a nose.

SKIDDING RED 30X Donovan Cian Plays Like Cham- pions—Homers by Baker and Pipp New York, Sept. 14.—The Yanks unbuckled a flock of hits at the Polo Grounds yesterday which have been locked up in their bat hags for weeks. The upheaval of whacks made the world’s champion Red Sox look like“ thirty cents and gave Donovan boys a 13 to 7 victory, which was more than plenty for one afternoon. The once famous Red Sox closed up like a morning glory In the sun and the club which has twice brought the title to the Hub has one foot on the edge of a cemetery and the other on a banana peel. All their past greatness is rapidly disappearing as they swiftly bump the « bumps down the slippery chute of oblivion. The Red Sox still entertain themselves with the hope that they may yet beat out the White Sox In the American league flag dash, a little occurrence which wouldn’t be a bit more surprising than a trolley line to’the North Pole next summer. It's a funny thing about these Yanks. They can play ball against & |once great club like the Red Sox, but find themselves suffering all flinds of embarrassments when they mingle with the bunch in the second division. Donovan’s club has no special goal in view now except to land in the first division and if they play like they did yesterday, the first division will reccive them with open arms. Three Boston pitchers, Foster, Pen- nock and Jones were hammered fog 17 hits, two of them home runs, au- thorized by Frank Baker and Wallie Pipp. Baker got four hits yester- day and Joe Gedeon, Hughey High ‘and Elmer Miller three each. For more than two hours, the crowd was bewildered by Yankees merry-go- rounding it on the base paths. The word crowd is used here merely out of habit. for it was as slim as Slat: Love, the pitcher who finished th game for the Yanks. In their moments of distress, the Red Sox are irritable. Umpire Silk O'Loughlin~reversed a decision on them yesterday in the fourth inning, first calling High out at third and theh calling him safe. The Boston' players approached O'Loughlin like a Russian mob. Because of the late- ness of the season, the umpires were a little easy, otherwise half of the Boston team would have been sep- arated from their salaries. As it was, Babe Ruth who took up the ar- gument from the bench was exiled by Umpire Moriarty. In an effort to offset the crushing Yankee attacks, Black Jack Barry sent in nearly every reserve on the club. Bob Shawkey who pitched for the Yanks was in a heap of trouble in the first two innings, but then he settled down and gave the Bostonese only two more hits. Love, who as< sumed the pitching burden in the eighth, was jarred for three hits and runs. It was the easiest thing in the world to score runs ani it was a fortunate thing for ths Yankees that they did their run shop- ping early. The scores: i New York 40240201x—13 17 3 | Boston . 220000030— 7 12 L Shawkey, Love and Nunamaker; Foster, Pennock, Jones and Cady. & Gallia Subdues Mackmen. 1 Washington, Sept. 14.—Washing- Iton took the first game of the series § from Philadelphia vesterday., 2 to 1. in ten innings.
