The young amateur and hfs pro- fessional instructor teamed up y: terday. The combination was #0 ¢f- fective that it landed in the first place group. Young Pete, playing at a 15 clip, helped his partner on two dif- ferent holes, the long first and twelfth. MacFarlane had-an ‘ndi- vidual 73, and in the few miscues he made Harmon was right on the job with strong shooting ‘Tommy Harmon, twenty-one, was just discharged from the caval ry, galloped over the North Shore links like a champion, He and his partner, George Bowdoin, who did so well in the recent national championship at Trae Burp, helped themselv toa best ball of 70.

The third pair that tied for the Jead were Mike Brady, runner-up to Walter Hagen for the national tilie, and H. Lake, a young amateur from New Haven. Brady was in unusually good form, his individual score being a 72. Lake came through nicely on several holes where the Boston star wabbied, and their net result wi fine 70.

In both with the victories, King Thrush started last Wednesday as the hottest kind of a tip, it being newsed around that he was the) best two-year-old ‘Trainer Bedwell had in his care.

Dog dividing the bulk of the play, His first race evidently put him on edge, for he ran without much urging in a contending position to the final eighth, when he drew out to win easily, Milkmaid was at the good price of 4 to 1, and for that reason, strange to say, was passed up by many who figurod that because she wasn't a 7 to 6 favorite there was “nothing do- ing.” Shuttinger rode her behind the pace of Passing @hower to the stretch, ond en ready had no trouble in going to the front, In the final six- teenth she drew gway from the bunch crowding around her as if they were standing still,’ Passing the judges she was six lengths in front of Colum- bine, which, by the way, ran a good race to finish where she did, Queen of the Sea, running im the Ross colors in the fifth, looked good enough to make {t three in a row for the popular Canadian Commander, She was made an odds-on choice, However, there was no Shuttinger in \her saddle, She was intrusted to Richereek, who is not a 7 to 10 rider by any means, He got her away bauly, jand although she was full of run reek hoped to close was too much for her, ivy had the race well Fr eres Tee a instances Andy's skill had a lot to do! diwn the stretch, the gapj* Shuttinger Winner Twice Substituting for Loftus in hand tn the final sixteenth and won with plenty to spare from King John, with the Ross favorite third Willie Knapp couldn't make 112 pounds ang Ambrose was put up on Whitney's Afternoon, the favorite in ithe last race, He got her away well ‘and led throughout, but the filly had to be shaken up right at the end, P.

By Bozeman Bulger HE only man at the Polo Grounds who took that bali game seriously was John J. McGraw. He could see the score- board. All the crowd could see was @ maze of upset athletes runnin; New York cricketers made) around in circles and waving their ims and legs. But the Giant mogul never could see that kind of base- ball, gO he sat there and watched the scoreboard boy hang up the figures that are gradually wrenching us loose from the lead. He saw the Reds win one and the Cubs go after two while the Cardinals had the Giants across their knee, slipper in hand, seasoning according to taste. The further things went the maddér “Mc” got and toward the ninth his face was #o dark jt looked like rain. It was SOME melee. To present it in lump: Thirty players were employed be- fcre either club would surrender. Cardinalg and Giants collectivety made twenty runs, twelve going to St. Louis, There were twenty-two hits as near as we could count. There were nine errors, a majority going to the visitors. Each club used four pitchers and two catchers. After kicking dust and gravel in the umpirical eye, Miller and Snyder, of the Cards, were effaced from the pastime in disgrace, The Giants made seven runs in one inning and the guests made five, That, gentlemen, is succinctly what is known as a major league ball game. And still there are those/ who be- moan: “Oh, for the old days when there were plenty of hits and rums!" A middle-aged gent, assaying a lit- tle higher than 2.75, per cent., teet- ered in front of us, looked wistfully out across the diamond, and sald: “Lishun,” he confided with a at Clambakes ® chuckle that sprayed, “All my life I've been tryin’ to see one of tiesh games ‘tween the married men and sing men at Elk’s clam bake, But, but y"know I wusser sucker.

At one stage the official scorer insisted that the umpire should make them wear identification tags. The casualty list, as near as it could be compiled in the pitching class up to late last night, was Meadows, May, Tuero, Sherdel, Schupp, Perritt. Dubuc and Ragon. In the catcher's list were Gonzales, McCarty, Snyder and Dilhoefer, Irvin Cobb, the writer of Ossining, came down ‘to look over the Giants for the first time this season.

Shotton was on second and signalled for the squeoze play. As Lavan waited for the ba'l to come over the plate so that he could bunt it, Shotton started on a dead run from second with the piteh- er's wind up. When Lavan hit the ball Shotton had passed third ant was alongside the runner who was to score ahead of him. They crossed the plate almost arm in arm—a clean double squeeze. But—the climax! There was a wild wave of the um- pire's arm and all runners were or- dered back to their bases and the batter called out for jumping out of the box and otherwise interfering with the regular run of things. After seeing a unique play like that work out perfectly can you blamo Snyder for his terrible squawk?
