MEADOW AND SEQUIN | MAJOR' LEAGUE Walter Johnson Pitches S PENNANT RACE GATHERING SPEED enators to Shut-out *Over Red Sox—Washington Wins Second Game-Brook-i lyn Takes Two From Boston — Cards Down Reds Twice — Pirates and Cubs Split — Athletics Divide Twin Bill With Yankee: By the Associated Press. | With Memorial Day past and pitching arms working their best under a warmer sun, with Walter Johnson back in the box for Wash- | ington, with the stirring duel bn-} tween Yaokees and Athletics on again—the big league pennant race was gathering speed and zest today. Quite fittingly the old soldier of | the Senators, “Old Barney” Johnson, | made his first appearance of this, his 20th season, in a Memorial day game. He proved himself as fit as the youngest of the leaguers by run- ning his shut-out total to 113 with a 2 to 0 three-hit victory over the Red Sox in the opener of a double head- er. z Perhaps inspired by the return of the veteran after absence from the lineup with an injury received in training camp, his mates put away the second game by a count of 13 to | 5 on the hurling of Hadley, a re- | cruit, | Only two other teams in the two | leagues were able to match the Sen- ators’ feat of cleaning up two games | iv a double bill. Brooklyn took two from Boston, 5 to 2 and 6 to 2, while the St. Louls Cards walloped Cincin- nati 6 to 8 and 3 to 1. Both league-leading teams had an even break, the Pirates caught a| tartar in the Cubs who broke their winning streak of 11 games by beat- | ing them in the morning tilt by 7 to 6, but the Buccaneers came back in the second with a 6 to 5 decision. Both games went an extra frame. A big factor in the Cubs' triumph | In the opener was an unassisted | triple play by Jimmy Cooney, short- | stop. A protest by Managep Connie Mack of the Athletics followed the 11 inning victory of the Yankeces 6 to 5, after the A's had won the first game, 9 to 8. His protest hinged on | the technical point of whether the rule applying to running on a ball | that falls into the dugout applies as well when a man catches it and falls in with the ball. Collins and Ty Cobb were on base when Grabowski, New York catch- er, fell into the home team cave | with the ball in his mitt after scoop- | ing in a skyscraping foul. The um- | pire let Collins score on the ground the ball fell into the dugout, but held Cobb on base where he died. ! The closeness of the battle if both | leagues was brought out by the number of even breaks in the eight pairs of games played. The Giants | * were 14 to 10 better than the Phil- | lies in the first game by 1 to 0 worse in the second; the Browns were go- ing fast enough in the first to beat the White Sox, 11 to 3, but were kuocked out of the picture with a 10 to 0 lacing in the second. Further proof that you never can tell about 2 ball game was given when the In- dians nosed out Detroit, 9 to 8, then took a solar plexus wallop 11 to 3. AMERICAN LEAGUE 1 (First Game.) R.

To decide the matter, instead of a draw as is | the usual manner of settling the question, Keck Introduced a novelty.

Keck Parker and | Loule Jones staged a pretty ducl. | Keck lost seven “bucks” fin the| morning but upon the insistence of Loule who thought it was Friday, he returned in the afternoon. “Seven come eleven” is Keck's cry, because | in the afternoon, Louie started oft badly and went from bad to worse and Keck beat him in everything| cluding 11 of the green slips with “E Pluribus Unum” on them. | Frank Wachter, Gale Porter, | Frank Shiclds and Erny Humphrey four ball, best | ball tourney vesterday with a best | ball of 77. With 1-4 added handi- | cap, the team had a net score of 59. | The team composed of Bill Booth, | Max Hart, Erny Baldwin and Carl Baldwin started out to win the event but after the first hole, they found everything the matter with the course and even their luncheon, said by all to be excellent, brought only additional scowls to otherwise placid features. Everything was nice in the flag tournament in the afternoon until the 17th fairway was reached. Here | the flags began to appear. Each| player was given 71 strokes, par for the course and whatever additional strokes his handicap would give| him. When the final stroke was| taken and the ball stopped rolling, | here the flag was placed. On the! 17th fairway, it looked like a may- pole dance after several had driven | off and thc flags began to flutter in the breeze. Several more were set about half way down the 1Sth fairway while| Perce Platt furnished the day’s dec- oratlon for the caddie house near which he placed his flag. Frank Wachter ended on the green about 20 feet from the pin. Erny Bald- win ended with 12 feet to go while Max Hart, the winner, came within six feet of sinking the ball. | Clarence Manning and Bill Booth | were tied for first place with a score | of cight in the approaching and, putting contest which wound up the | play yesterday.
