Yank Winnin | Until Pipp Athletics Gave Carl Mays All Kinds of Trouble Until Local First Baseman Struck De- ciding Blow in Eleventh In- ning. By Bozeman Bulger. HE Athictics are going quite a ways this summer. Up to the present writing they ‘heve caused our Mr. Carl Mays more frritation than he has felt since Ban @ohnaon tried to sue and mandamus him out of the league. But for Wallie Pipp getting so @isgusted with their trying to act like @ regular ball club that he poked the ole pill into the stand for an eleventh-inning homer they might have stopped the Yank-winning @treak dead in its track. Bven with their strange faces, their city ways and thdse snappy little blue elephants on their shirt fronts, the Yanks got on to them, though. Once their identity was established the Yanks took them across their knees and gave them what they needed. ‘Then they looked just like the Ath- letios. But, before we could do it, they made the Champs fo eleven innings for the first time this season. It was getting late and chilly and the crowd gomplaining about being late to @inner, Thereupon Mr. Whitey Witt, Dimself an old inmate of the Ath- Jetios, showed our boys how, - Having tried all the pitchers that Connie Mack had thought of they stuck in a fellow named Helmach. ‘He was tall, rangy and wild.

And, to show what they mean to Connie Mack, those veteran birds did practically all the aggressive work against our Yanks, Carl was belted hard enough to lone an ordinary ball game, They popped him for twelve clean safeties, which were three more than we got off the whole lot of Athletics’ pitchers. In the pinches, though, Carl managed to settle down and see about the matter. He was a lucky boy, if you ask me. Yes, those old boys from the cellar are going somewhere this summer. “What is the nearest thing to a baseball holiday?’ asked one of those conundrum makers as we were get- ting cold in the tenth inning, and mighty disgusted. “Why, Athletics on a Monday," | ANTIQUATED WELTER. was the answer. It went pretty good, PROVE AMNTHINGs / too. Up until the ninth inning the game had sped along so rapidly that a well known rooter who asked that his name be not printed on account of his wife finding out where he was, re- marked: “This looks like one of them pint size games to me, It won't last near long enough for a quart.’ Tt seems that the playing time now figures importantly in a fan's life on cold days, He has to gauge his liquor accordingly. A double header figures two full quarts, counting the intermission.

CHICAGO, April —President Harding is a mighty good golfer, ac- cording to George O'Neil, a Chicago professional who has returned from an invitational golf week with the nation's Chief Executive. O'Neil, who trained a number of championship folfers before he retired from active teaching to enter business, played a number of rounds with the President at Washington. He said that the match play temperament of the Presi- dent was even better than his medal scoring ability, although Mr. Harding made the last nine holes one day in 41, which is far better than a mere duffer can do. President Harding is ® hard hitter, and is improving his game constantly, so that O'Neil predicts that he soon will be scoring constantly in the 80's. He does not drive such a long ball, but he is gaining in distance, and has improved his short game of late. White House golf was unknown un- til President Taft went there to sup- plant the tennis. cabinet of President Roosevelt. He was succeeded by no less ardent a devotee of the links in the person of Mr. Wilson, but both were of the duffer class, so far ay their scores showed. They took to the links for surcease from cares of State, Mr. Wilson ruminating some of the most momentous questions of his War Administration over the golf course. President Harding is said to be really infatuated with the game for ts own sake, studying hard to over- come his golfing faults and improve his shots, according to O'Neil, He seeks the links at every opportunity, either in Washington or elsewhere and plays the game for all he is worth from tee to cup. Golf is said to have take a boom in Washington recently, because of the President's enthusiasm for the game. OTHER GOLF GOSSIP ©. W.
