— Real International Flavor to To- night’s Heavyweight Contest. Copyright, 1912, hy The Pres Publishing Oe. (The New York World), O-NIGHT Is the grea. night. Bom- | dardier Wells and Al Palzer meet in Madison Square Garden, ten founds, to discuss the white hope alt- uation. Bombardier being heavyweight champion of England and Palzer ono of the best white heavywelghts in this country the affair carrigs an Interna- tional sentiment that has been coined into big money at the box office in advance. Bombardier, Englishmen claim, is the best heavyweight England has ever sent to this country. If he's as good as his Dackers think he ought to be able to at least outbox Palzer for ten rounds. The Bombardier certainly is clever and f: 4 I have no duilbt he's as game as & fighting man needs to be.

Giants Owe Victory To _To Change of Tactics NO TEAM HAS MADE OVER FOUR RUNS OFF PITCHER MARQUARD, In the excitement over Marquard’s record of seventeen straight victor- Jes a rather important point tn that rformance seems to have been overlooked. Wilbert Robinson, who swella with pride every time the Rube's name is mentioned, showed to-day where Rube had not allowed mere than four runs in eny one of the seventeen games. “They may Ww us some old pitchers records,” says Bobby, “but they can't show us where any one of the old birds held opposing teams down to that number of runs in @ long string of games.” McGraw Ordered Men to Hit First Good Ball in Last ‘Two Innings. BY BOZEMAN BULGER. UT for a sudden switch tn tactics! B that camo to McGraw as an tnspl- tion in the seventh inning the Giants might have failed in their fourth attempt to hang up a string of nine suc- cosalve victories and a young pitcher, Brennan by name, might have gono away from the Brush stadium laughing up his trusty left aleve. It so happened that the Gants got on at the right time and rode home @ win- ner, In seven innings they had made ‘out two bite and then in two innings they turned round and delivered seven blows for the glory of the progressive cause. For this sudden change there must have been a reason, Here It is: ‘The Giants were trying to bait Mr. Brennan {nto a spell of wildness, a scheme suggested by Information that McGraw weather eye on the doings in Himoki: In his last game against the “Lit Brothers of the Rich” Brennan gave bases on ‘balls in succession and nt to defeat. had this dope carefully tucked @wey when the Giants began their at- tack and he instructed his men to ‘wait him out.” Nobody was to etrike at a firat ball and the batters were to play out the string to the danger point. As & consequence the Giants were con- stantly in the hole and couldn't get a lead. Mr. Brennan was in exceptional good form and hie one aim in life w that rubber home plate, eighth innin, arrived t true to the new pian of battle, tore into the frst one and broke his long batting slump by drilling a single Into lett. It was now up to Merkle, and. the bie first baseman elapped the first ball squarely in the nose and bumped. it against the fence for two bases, scorns: both Crandall and Doylo.

Though st 1s oMctally scored a single, the ball that “Snod” hit is going yer. ‘The wisdom of this change in tactics Was apparent after the game when it was cen that Brennan had given but| one base on balis throughout the strus- gle and that was handed to Murray pur- Doscly after the soore had been tial. Otle Crandall pitched his best game of the year and after the first inning had the Phillies running around. in circles. With that tantalizing elow ball, he kept them popping up in the alr there.
