The Philadelphia Americans defeated the Norwich K. of C. team Sunday after- fook, at the fair grounds, 4 to 1, before 2 crowd of 3,500 enthusiastic fans. Dur- ‘ing the first inning Danny Murphy, Con- nie Mack's strategist, was preseated a $250 purse by James P. Frayes on behalf of many admirers and friends of Danny in Norwich who veluntarily made up the purse. When Danny was at bat in the first inning Mr. Hayes strode out to the plate and the game was temporarily halted while a ring of players formed around the astonished Norwich favorite with Mr. Hayes holding the center of the stage. Danny listened to a few well expressed words telling him how deeply baseball followers of Norwich were interested in what he was doing and how glad they al- ways were to have him back in their midst, a pleasure that they were giving tangible evidence of in the purse that Mr. Hayes handed over to the old Norwich player. Totally surprised, Danny was able merely to say a word or two of thanks, and then took up his bat again to resume the game. Piltcher Sherman, seeing that Dresentations were in order, {00k the cue and presented Murphy a walk to first. Danny got around as far as third in that infing but was run off and caught be- tween third and home. The Kaceys had a painful case of stage fright in the first inning and practicaliy presented the game to the Athletics then and there. After this spasm was over, the home players began to look like a real ball team. Sherman pitched a good game for Nor- wich, fanning seven and did not allow a pass. He also knocked out the hit scor- ing the X. of C's lone tally. Moore of the Athletics, a southpaw with a world of spoed, allowed three passes and was touched for 3 hits and struck out three. Bigbee replaced him in the last of the seventh, allowed one pass, struck out 1 4 was touched for two safeties, one poing for an extra base. Kelliher played a good game both in ‘he fleld and at the bat, gett’: - four out of four chances and two hits. Army also nit ‘the pill for two safeties, one going for an extra base. Philadelphia scored in the first, second and eighth inmings. tallyinz two in the first and one in each of the other innings named. Norwich scored its lone tally in its half of the ninth. Norwich had men on basss but lacked the heeded hits to put runs across. Myatt, first man up for Philadelphia, #'ammed out a double, the ball going into the crowd.

Cleveland wax extended by St. Louis, using three pitch- ers in order to win, and Chicago won by a good margin ove rDetroit. The Indians ‘have seven games to play, three with St Louis and ,four with Detroit, while the ‘White Sox have only four contests, one To keep in first place, when it came to thefinal spurt. The Yankees won today from Washington but are three games behind Cleveland. In the National, Brooklyn increased its lead to five games and has only to win' one of its three games with New York or the game with Boston next Sunday. One defeat will put the Giants out of the race and ‘the best they can do by winning all their six zames while Brook- lyn is losing its four, would be to tie. The Cincinnati world's champions Were eliminated last week as a contender for first place.” The Reds batted. «weakly and dropped six successive games be- fore winning today over Pittsburgh. The Pirates are striving to wrest third placs from Cincinnati. Philadelphia is trying | to take advantage of Boston's slump and climb out of last place.

BENNY LEONARD TO BOX Mrs. “Topp” told him she had bpt that she wanted a little practice. The manag- er may recognize his visitor if he reads this note. John R. Taylor, of Newark, O., one of the most popular trapshots in the United States, was injured last fall and now that he is about again physicians will not allow him to shoot more than once each weck, and then at not more than 100 tar- gets. Taylor broke 93 on the first at-| tempt, 100 on the second and 99 on the third. That's what might be termed good shooting for an invalid. During the Elks' convention in Chicago several hundred members éngaged in a trapshooting tournament at Lincoln Park. That there is at least one good shot in the organization was proven when G. A. i Smith of Marshalitown, Ia., broke 199x | 200. Mary Campbell, of Salina, has won the woman’s trapshooting championship of Kansas two years in succession. Hiss| Campbell is 18 years old. She gives promise of developing into one of the best fair dianas at the traps in the United States. She averaged better than 90 per cent at more than 1,000 targets last win- ter. The South Shore Country Club of Chi- cago, Ill, intends to remain quite a fig- ure in the trapshooting world, despite the fact that they passed up the Grand American Handicap this year. The big shoot did much to enthuse the members in shooting. Two new traps are being jerected at the point-where the Lake has| been filled in, so that the club now has five traps in constant use. Long runs in trapshooting have been | coming along pretty well of late. Fred! Tomiin, of Glassboro, N. J., profession-| al recently compiled a string of 263 in toree successive shoots at Geneva, N. Y., Miilton, Pa.. and Boyertown, Pa., Tomlmn has shot extremely well this year.
