It happened again yesterday at Washington in full view of a hardy band of capital fans—thirteen victories for the Mackmen in 14 starts against Walter Johnson's men. If this is carried far enough, it may easily mean the margin by which the Athletics defeat the Yankees, presuming always that they do de- feat the Yankees. The score of this latest outrage against Clark Griffith's peace of mind was 7 to 6, and the Senators threatened to the very last to pull it out.

Stanley Works Fafnirs ..... Paper Goods o N. B. Machine ..... In a playoff of the 12-inning, one to one tie game of last Thursday night, the Fafnir baseball team in the Industrial league defeated the Stanley Rule & Level outfit last night at Walnut Hill park by a 5 to 4 score. The Fafnirites rallied ond scored two runs in the last half of the nirth to give them the game. Stanley Works won from the New Britain Machine by the score of % to 0. Thomas Haines of 6 Franklin street, catcher on the New Britain Machine team, suffered a fractured ankle in the eighth inning when Dick Schroeder stid into home in an attempt to score. Haines was taken | to the New Dritain General hospital | where he was treated by Dr. Rob- bins, He was later taken to hi | home. The game was called at that time. The eighth inning was unlucky in both games because in that frame on Diamond No. 2, “Lefty” Haber was knocked out when Zapatka buat- ed along fisst base line and Haoer | went to field the ball.

Tn one of his earliest preliminary fizhts, against Jeft Baulknight. a full-fledged heavy- weight, Jones showed signs of rare fighting instinct and punch.

Ior weeks they American Tenuis Star Scores Triple Victory in Early Play at Queens Club in London. London, Juae 19 (UP)—Bill Til- den, American tennis star, was the faverite to win the London lawn tennis championships at the Queens club today after his triple victory in the early play yesterday. Tilden defeated H. G. N. It looked like Stanley Rule's first victory when the first inning broke. Four hits coupled with a bad throw by Bucheri, gave the Rulers three runs. This looked like a perfect lead, especially when Fafnirs came through n their half of the session with only one counter. Then, after two scoreless innings Fafnirs, through s single and a double, the single by Walicki and the two-bagger by Kenrue, got two men on and “Jimmer” O'Brien arose 1o the occasion with a sizzling single the losers hitless except for twe singles garnered off his delivery by the Machinists ip the fifth, Charley Miller decided to give his new pitcher, Ferrence a chance but the Workers got to him in the sec- ond frame and Charley was forced to send Ernie Anderson to his res- cue.. The Workers had not so far ahead however that the latter was unable to check them. Scott went so well for the win. ners that but three of the opposing at Chicago as Hack Wilson hit two L homers. This round of results left the Cardinals holding a three point lead and their headg The Pirates were second. three points ahead of the Cubs. Sherift Blake pitched for the Cubs for six and one-third in-| Y nings, but had to have help at the 1A finish from Guy Bush. Haid, Bell and Holland were the St. Louis vic- tims. Bottomey and Gelbert joined | the h~me run party given by Hack | Wilson and Hafey. The 4 to 2 victory of the Phillies over the Braves was notable chief- | ly for the 17th home run of M Charles Klein, th- slugging outfield- ed of the Philadelphia team. Lester Sweetland pitched smart ball against Ben Cantwell and Leverett. Amerifl—l.eague ; batsmen faced him in every inning excgpt the fifth when he had to show his stuff to five hitters, due to two hits and an error.

Nothing daunted, the Rulers came back in the next session and with two out, started things popping again. Billy Darrow sliced a double past the tree in right field. Argosy foliowed with a single between first fund second and once more the Rul- ers were in the lead.
