LEXINGTON, Ky. April 13.—The Giants wind up their spring training trip here to-day in the last of a scheduled ten-game series with the Cleveland Indians. The McGraw clan finally went to the front yester- day afternoon when they trounced thelr Western rivals in a snappy | game of baseball, the first played since the teams left St. Louts last Copyright, 1018, by The Press Publishing Co, (Tho New York Evening World). A FEW months ago Johnny Kilbane, featherweight champion of the world, went sprawling on tho floor of a ring pitched in the centre of @ Philadelphia ball park, while Benny Leonard stood trium- phantly over him. It was half a min- ‘ ute later that Kilbane, reeling to his corner and hearing the deafening, e muffled roar from the great crowd LP EVER There WAS A Bibercirwiradl Fes heey and Barnes | deating insistently against his ear Boxine sTyLe a | ; r the Giants, the former ‘ drums, realized that at Iast he had Bavoner Wiens etln fe | allowing but two hits, while the erst- i tasted tho bitterness of defeat, HAD IT WHEN HE was | while member of the Boston Braves? t | Perhaps in that moment of realiza IN THE RUNG. | Pitching staff was just as hard to hit 14 as he was In Houston against the tion Johnny Kilbane thought his days same club last week.
