=~ —— | Giants Keep Up Their Stride and! Refuse to Break Because of the One Defeat That Deprived , Them of a Record, Thereby Proving They Are a Dead; Game Ball Club. | Owner Rie Wek brclne Wont ys | Giants are proving that they | are @ dead game ball club, In stead of losing their pep be- cause of the one defent that deprived them of a record, they are going right on playing championship ball at the fame hard clip that sent them from the cellar to within striking distance of the top. The way they are keeping up their stride is the best possible proof of their gameness, They refuse to break. As a rule a terrific drive such as the Glants have gone through ends in a smash-up. But the Giants won't smash. With fighting teams like the Dodg- ers, the Giants and the Yanks, “little o!

He walked into Benz without any attempt to de-| fend himself and let Benz hit him on} the jaw until he was arm weary. After every hard driven wallop Toland bobbed his head back to position without even a changed expression. After three rounds of this his oppo- nent's ardor began to flag, and To- land cut loose and sent home a body smash that ended the affair.

He once made good money in Germany giving boxing ex- hibitions, but he'd starve in Germany now and he might be imprisoned as a French citizen. England has driven him out for reasons not widely adver- tised. He was lucky to get out of Cuba without belug financially stripped clean after the Willard fight, many claims for money having been lodged against him there. His one chance now, it seems, might be to box in some of the South American countries. In Spain, I notice in the Spanish reports, Johnson bills himself ar “Champion of the World.” Perhaps he can get away with it there. The Dons may not have heard of Willard.

Another ab- sentee is Roger Peckinpaugh, the greatest fielding shortstop in the league. he Giants, having produced the real sensation of the 1916 season, have just one more game to play before returning to enjoy a reception that promises to be a hummer. Out of twenty games on the road they have won nineteen. Instead of despised | tail-endera they are within easy strik- ing distance of first place. ‘'Through- out the league they are picked as winners of the pennant. McGraw has the hardest hitting team in both leagues and, according to the records, his pitchers are just as good. They will return without having lost a series, even if defeat should be their lot to-day. The best the Phillies can do isa tie.

Griff's team has lost three straight, and the league leadership is in danger of stip- pind from beneath them at any minute, This shimp is largely due to lack of pitching strength, which is surprising in view of the fact that a month ago Wash ington was credited with the strongest staf’ in the American League While discussing the relative value of huliplavers in’ the big leagues George Stallings, manager of the Heaves, declared last night that he would poy in money for Davy Iobe Giants than for any just “Davy could be aK good a man Old Race we Hanastar De Old Hocing history is recalled by the uth of that good ra Banas he was This horse He was by 1B. and cost ex- William : builder of the k, $10,000 an a thr Ridden by G 1 popular trainer itan Handicap at He at along the public had indal followed again went famous lost his @u Ty Cobb,” saya George, “if he was @s determined, He has all the quali- fications, and right now he is playing the best baseball of any man in the country.

Among ballplayers and managers there is a belief that the sensational spurt of the Cleveland club will not last, This is based on the opinion that Fohl bas not enough of the real goods to stand a hard campaign. So far the men have been playing on sheer nerve, Manager Fobl also has an inkling of this and for the past few weeks has been scraping the leagues with a fine tooth comb for more pitching talent.

GOLF CHAMPIONSHP OPENS AT ENGLEWOOD | Another Three-Day Tourney Is Westchester Title Meet at Wykagyl Club. By Wiltlam Abbott. The tournament golfers will be very much on the fob to-day with the starting of the New Jersey State championship at Englewood and the Westchester title meet at the Wy- kagy! Club in New Rochelle. Both tournaments will be three-day con- | tests.

IPING ROCK and Belmont Park P run opposition meetings to- | day. It's a sad state of affairs, but those who framed the racing cal- endar for the season say the clash couldn't be helped. There was a time during racing’s rejuvenation that the Westchester Association ran off it's programme in the morning in order to give Piping Rock a clear field for the afternoon racegoers, but that period has passed, evidently. The Piping Rock Association has endeared itself to a certain percent- age of racing enthusiasts by its of- forts to presorve the sport when it seemed on its last legs. These race- goers, and they are legion, can’t un- derstand why Belmont Park should run in direct opposition. Piping Rock has a programme for this afternoon that doesn't suffer in the least by comparison with that ot Belmont Park. On the contrary the fields at the former place are large and attractiv: nd savor of a | sportiness that is not in evidence at | the Queens County track th days. | On. event alone, the $10,000 Sweep- takes, is worthy of the trip to Locust Valley.
