"SENATORS AND YANKEES BATTLE 12 INNINGS TO A TIE—DODGERS ARE ROUTED ON HOME GROUNDS BY GIANTS—VINCENT RICHARDS SUSPENDED BY | ‘ _TENNIS ASSOCIATION—RICKARD GOES TO TOLEDO TO Sl§§ WlLLAR D AND DEMPSEY—BOSTON 6—ROURKE’S CHARGES WIN MEE,[_, 15,000 FANS SEE. | DODGERS Rumfini Giants Bombard Cadore an Mamaux—Kauff Gets Homer Brooklyn, May 12.—A little, chunl fellow, with calves so ab- large as to make him ap- | sawed-off normally pear almost bowlegged, aggressive of jaw and cocky of manner, stepped up to the plate in the eighth inning at Ebbets Field yesterday. As if with | the magic wand of Merlin with one | waft of his bat he turned a lightning fast ball game into an utter rout. It was Kauff—bashful Benny Kauff, of the Giants. With New York lead- ing Brooklyn by a hairline margin of 2 to 1 In the eighth, one out, Chase and Doyle on second and first, Benny leaned into the first ball Cadore pitched to him and lifted it high and dry over the right field wall for a home run, scoring Hal and Larry ahead. " Benny's blow broke up the old ball game and the hearts of the Brooklyn fans. The Giants added another run in that frame and fattened their total with -orie more tally in the ninth. They came out on the right end of a 7-to-2 score and sent the Dodgers down to thelr second defeat of the season. It was an ideal day for a Harvard- Yale football game with its dull, low- ering clouds and a cold sting in the air, but a mighty poor day for base- ball. Despite the inclement weather, a crowd of 15,000 fans turned out to see the first clash of the season be- tween the ancient enemies from both panks of the Bast River. The Giants rose to the occasion with | tme MoGrawian spirit and rode roughshod over the Dodgers, who, in their old-fashioned way, waited for a big turnout of home sympathizers to g0 crashing down to a decisive defeat.

N. L. T. A. by the amateur rule committee.
