GINfIS POUND THE BALL
Pile Up Eight Runs to Only Two
for Brooklyn.
RAYMOND IN HAPPY VEIN
"Bed" Murray Als-^ Helps Along;
by Leading Off in
Two Rallies.
If any one went to Washington Park, j
ferookli. yesterday afternoon for tne P«r
.,. O in nts lost n,ne out o.
he Giants drove Scanlon. who tajr often
rroved too much for them, out of the box
fn the sixth inning and treated l Wlbcta
Ma most unmannerly way. Tho sue
ceeded in bunching nine clean Ints. and
that tells the story. Incidentally they
climbed Into second place in the pennant
"one of the most gratifying features of
the game from the point of view of the {
New Tork rooters was Murray's return to
form in the hitting line. He started the .
rally in the sixth inning with a terrific
twolbase drive to left field, while in the
seventh he began another batting fest with
a -ingle "Bugs" Raymond pitched a ster
lin- -ame and vas invincible except in the ;
tnird inning, when Brooklyn got two run*- ,
He gave only one base r,n balls, struck out .
eight mm and allowed seven hits, three of |
which were bunched in one inning.
McMillan made three errors at short, |
only one of which, however, was costly.
That came at the opening of the eighth,
when Vtai got his base. Hummel al- ,
lowed Wilson a base in the sixth, when he, j
too, fumbled a grounder. Wilson eventually j
scoring. Bergen was too crafty for the ,
Giants behind the bat, and they failed to j
steal many bases. He caught Doyle han- :
dily in th* first inning by a fine throw .
to Hummel, wh-n the New York second ,
baseman tried a delayed steal. while Brld
well in the fourth was nipped at the plate. ,
Bergen to Hummel to Bergen, when he j
tried a double steal with Devlin, who was
on first.
Brooklyn scored two runs in the third
inning, which was interrupted by a pass- .
ins shower. McMillan struck out, but Ber
g?n walked and went to second on Scan- |
lon's single over second base. Devore ;
robbed Burch of a hit when he made a fine |
running catch, but rather marred his good j
work by throwing poorly to Doyle at sec- j
ond to catch Bersen. who had got too far ;
from the bap. Daubert followed with a
single to centre field, scoring: Bergen, while I
Wheat singled to the same spot, bringing j
Scanlon home. Wheat was caught on the
relay. Seymour to Devlin to Doyle, retiring
the side. Brooklyn never got another run
ner beyond second base. ,
The Giants tallied one run in the first
Inning. Devore walked and went to third
on Doyle's drive to right field. Although
Hurray popped * foul to Bergen. Seymour |
sent a long fly to Wheat, and Devore cam.'
home. Doyle was caught stealing second.
It looked bad for the Giants for the next
few Innings, for although they got men on
bases on passes and errors, they failed to
get another hit for four innings.
But the relapse proved only temporary. :
' At the opening of the sj»xtli Murray, who
had teen steadily sampling a few of S. an
lon's curves, got a ball to his liking and
sent a smashing drive into left field for '
two bases. Seymour followed with a
single between (bat and second which put
Murray on third, and Bridwell'p single to
the same place brought him home with the
tieing run. * .
Devlin then dropped the ball over third
base for a single, scoring Seymour. Merkle
sacrificed Dor the fir"st out. putting Brid
well on third and Devlin on second, and
when Wilson sent a sharp rap through
Hummel ]'•■:•:•>"<■]! tallied. Raymond and
I Devore flied out, retiring the side.
" In the following frame, after Doyle had
prounded out. Hummel to Daubert, Murray
and Seymour both singled, and Bridwell
walked, filling the liases. Devlin grounded
to McMillan, who threw to Hummel, forc
ing Bridwell at second. Murray, however,
scored on the play, and when Daubert
muffed Hummel's throw to double Devlin
at first. Seymour tallied. Devlin was one
of the two men to .steal a base on Bergen,
but HerUe Had out to Davidson.
Two more runs were added in the next
Inning. Wilson, the first mar.. getting his
base on McMillan's error, advancing- to
second on Raymond's sacrifice and going to
third on Devon's single, the latter taking
second when Davidson threw to catch Wil
son at third. Doyle then drove a sizzler
over second, bringin • Wilson and Devore
home, the !a!!. r running so fast that lie
nearly beat Wilson to the plate, although
Martins from second.

•• Big Ed." Walsh Breaks Their Winning Streak
and Chicago Gets a Game.
It took Ed Walsh, the star pitcher of the
Chicago White Pox, to stop the winning
streak of the New v York Yankees, arid, al
though the game was close, he managed to
...,., the visit. to victory by a score of 2
to 1 at American League Park yesterday.
The came was filled with thrills, both Bides
playing in fine form, getting men on bases
in "inning after Inning, only to have fast
fielding shut off the scoring. It was the
first defeat of the Yankees in eleven games,
which included ore tie. "
AVarhop and Walsh allowed eight hits
each. but the visitors bunched two
singles and a double on Warhop in the first
inning, and scored the two funs which won
the game. Walsh struck out eight men
and kept his hits well scattered, pulling out
of holes time and again. The White Sox
made three errors, to one for the home
players, but the latter were unable to profit
to any extent by their opponents' misplays.
In the fourth inning, with one out. Chase
made a scratch hit, and Laporte walked.
Roach struck out, but Cree singled over
Walsh's head, and the bases were filled for
a moment. Chase, however, overran third
base and was thrown out, Leider to Purtell,
retiring the side.
Ilemphill opened the sixth with a single,
and Wolter was safe on Block's bad throw
to first. It looked as though the time had
come for the usual rally, but for once It
failed to materialize. Chase forced Hemp
hill at third s Walsh to PHrtell, Wolter
failed to make good on a double steal and
went out. Block to Purtell, while L-aporte
retired the Fide with an easy grounder to
Leider. In the seventh, with two out, Aus

KLEINOW GOESJTO RED SOX
Boston Strengthens Catching
Staff with Yankee Player.
.Tack Klrlnow. the reliable catcher of the
New York Americans, has been sold to
the Koston Red Sox. His release was
signed yesterday, and he will report to
the Boston club immediately. Kleinow has
shown weakness in catching spitball rd'eh
ers. and as the Yankees have three
twirlers of this type he has not been used
■ great deal this seaßon.
When Ix)u Criger was obtained to catch
for the New York club last winter it was
intimated that if Sweeney developed into
a good catcher and Mitchell showed prom
ise. Kleinow would be released. Waivers
were asked on him not long ago, and, al
though it was rumored that Detroit was
iifter him. no deal was made, and Boston
snapped him up.

Unable to Overcome 111 Luck in
Cosmopolitan Handicap.
FLIP-FLAP FOR BERKELEY
: Turns Form Somersault in Race
at Belmont Park — Estep
Rides Well.
Olambala. R. T. Wilson, jr.'s, candidate
for the Brooklyn Handicap, on Tuesday,
was badly beaten in the Cosmopolitan
Handicap at Belmom Park yesterdiy.
I Some excuses can l«e made for his poor
! showing, as he was cut off in the run up
! the backstretch and so knocked out of his
stride that he was several lengths out of
it in last place before he settled down tc
racing once more. He made up some
ground in the run through the stretch.
but could not reach a contending position.
The. winner of the onetime rich fixture
turned up in Berkeley, which turned a
! form somersault that made the crowd
gasp. The Fix-yer.r-old son of Dieudpnne
raced to the front in the first quarter and
came marching down through the stretch
with his head in the air without showing
the slightest disposition to stop as he did
| last Saturday when beaten in the closing
i strides by such cheap horses as Taboo
| and Dandy Dixon. He ran the mile and a
sixteenth *n the good time of 1:45 2-5.

furlong in the comparatively slow time of
■ 1:64.
p PrkPie y ran for the first time in the
colors of H. O. Redweil. wh<> claimed him
out of his last race, when the Beverwyck
I Stable took his breadwinner, Ed Ball. It
was the general opinion at the time that
■Mr. Bedwell had all the better of the ex
change, and he smiled broadly when Ber
keley raced to victory yesterday.
Estep rode well enough in winning
the four-furlong scramble with M. l^
Schwartz's Pickaninny to entitle him to
more mounts. He was wide awake at the
post, and when it csrme to a drive in the
last sixteenth he waited until the closing
! strides to draw his whip, and then used it
to good effect without dropping the filly's
head.
The youngster followed up this success
I by riding Stargowan to victory in the fifth
race, and again he showed skill by hug
ging the rail all the way and not losing a
foot of ground. Little Moore, on Richard
Reed, seemed to think that Estep would be
kind enough to pull out and let him
through on the rail in the last furlong, but
Estep had other notions. Moore stuck dog
gedly to the rail, . however, and Richard
Reed's only chance of winning lay in
hurdling Stargowan.
R. T. Wilson, jr.'s, Mexoana. which
; ranked so highly among the two-year-oM
1 fillies last season, hap developed into a
common jade, judging by her three races
this year. She appeared to outclass her
field in the last race yesterday, but was
beaten a head by Galley Slave in the ab
i surdly slow time of 1:03 for five furlones
! down the straight course. In the. Ladies
i Stakes a few days ago Mexoana. with
I weight up. raced head and head with
j Ocean Bound over five furlongs of the dis
| tance in 1:00 flat. This was around the
! turn and on a sloppy track.

Handicap on the same day. Mr. Hildreth

Fitz Herbert was scratched from the
Cosmopolitan Handicap yesterday, ln which
he was entered under 130 pounds. He
worked in the morning, however, with
Shilling up, galloping the mile in 1:42 and
I finishing out the mile and a quarter in

Fitz Herbert was all decked out in new
bridle and saddle. It seems that some of

off with a five-run lead in the first inning,
the visitors looked to have the game well
in hand until the eighth innin K . when
Mueller, who had relieved Parkin in the
box for Newark, blew up and four Provi
dence playors crossed the plate, which,
added to the two runs already tallied by
the locals, made the score a tie. From
then on neither side scored until the

TRAVERS BACK IK FORM
Reaches Final Round with Her
reshoff for Golf Title.
WHITE MAKES GOOD FIGHT
Max Behr and Wild 06 Down
Before Onetime National
Champion.
Those friendly rivals Jerome D. Travers,
of Montclalr, and Fred Herreshoff. of
Westbrook, survived the third day* play in
the Metropolitan Golf Association cham
pionship tournament over the Morria Coun
ty links yesterday, and as a result will
meet in the decisive test for the title to-day.
This makes the second year in succession
that Herreshoff has "reached the final
round. At Apawamis last May he lost to
Walter J. Travis after a stirring match.
Travers removed from his path during
yesterday's struggle that clever amateur
Max Behr, holder of the New Jersey title.
ami E. M. Wild, the Cranford poungster
who has been steadily working his way
tlward the top.
Herreshoff in the early hours caught C.
H. Brown, champion of the Hudson River
Golf Association, in one 'of his indifferent
moods, with the result that HerreshofT won
as he pleased. Later the Westbrook
man clashed with Gardner White, and as
if realizing that danger lurked in th*» play
of the brilliant interscholastic champion he
rose to the occasion and played such irre
sistible golf that the Cutler School boy was
forced to succumb on the fifteenth green.
\ Although Behr in his previous work dur
ing the tournament had been going fairly
well, if not better than Trav*rs. few be
lieved that the Morris County man would
be able to take the former champion's
measure. They pointed to the fact that on
four previous occasions, when these two
men met, Travers had always decisively
beaten the former Yale man. and they
argued rightly that Behr would be unable
to shake off the old hoodoo. Throughout
the match neither man displayed his best
form, and in the early stages both showed
lamentable weakness on the greens. ■ .-_•" ._-.
Behr missed easy puts on the -first and
third greens, while Trav?rs had lapses of
a similar nature at the second, fourth and
fifth holes. On the last named green
Traverse after missing a yard put for the
hole, laid his man a dead stymie, but with
rare skill Behr negotiated the shot with
the aid of a mashie, and the hole was
halved in 5. ,
Another bright spot in this rather com
monplace match was the recovery of Travers
going to the ninth hole. Aft^r a wild drive,
which almost went out of bounds. Travers
found himself ln an awkward position in^
the rough so close to the -woods as to
make it impossible for him to see the green.
The only shot to play was a slice, and the
Montclair wizard brought it off with deadly
precision, the ball describing a graceful
curve and sailing around the bend into the
punchbowl green so that he was left with
a ten-foot put for a 3.
As Behr had taken two more because of
being bunkered on his drive, Travers took
no chances, and contented :.imsi*lf with
winning the hole in 4. That placed him
3 up at the turn, and when he won
the next hole in 3 and the eleventh in 4
the match was at his mercy. He finally de
feated Behr 6 up and 4 to play.
Tn the iTfan time Herrrshoff had been
raklr.a: Charley Brown into camp. The
latter showed none of that determination
which pained for him lasting- glory the day
bffore. when he defeated WaKer J. Trivia.
In fact, Herreshoff. although dong nothing
exceptional in the scoring line, always had
the match well in hand, as Brown, wild
fn>m the tee. kept getting into all kinds of
difficulties, from which successful recov
eries were wellnigh impossible. Herreshoff
turned for home 4 up and won by a <> and 4
margin.
John Ward, although playing at the top
of his game, had the misfortune to meet
White in one of those brilliant veins for
which youthful "phenoms" are sometimes
famous. Even after winning the first two
holes Ward found himself down at the
seventh, and when White won the next in a
fine 3 the best the Garden City man could
do was to tarn for home 2 down. After the
second hole the pace set by White would
have done credit to a Vardon or a Braid,
as the boy's figures for the. outward Jour
ney were 35, a stroke less than Ward's.
Coming home White continued the good
work, getting a 3 at the twelfth and win
ning the match by 4 up and 3 to play.
In the other morning match & M. Wild,
of Cranford, appeared at his best against
A. F. Kammer, the Staten Island cham
pion. In fact. Wild played so well, making
the round in 75, that his admirers had
visions of seeing the former Cranford
schoolboy defeat Travers later in the day.
When th- 1 pair met, however, there was a
far different story to tell. Travers began
by winning the second and ihird hoies Jn 3
each, and although he allowed his oppo
nent to draw level because of weak putting
on the- .'!xth and seventh greens, the hopes
of Wll-i were speedily dashed, as Travers
then cut loose and won six consecutive
holes rii-'ht off the reel, and the match by S
up and 5 to play.
llr>rresh>ff went out so fast against
White that the Cutler lad was fortunate to
get halves, let alone win holes. The only
one he did win in the early stages was the
fourth, where Herreshoff took a 5. Out in
3S, Herreshoff turned for home 4 up. and
although he lost the tenth, where White
drove the green and got a 3, the West
brook man won the eleventh in a par 4,
making him aga;n 4 up. They halved t.'i*
next three holes, but the fifteenth went to
Herreshoff in 7 to 8, both men getting out
of bounds. Their wildness at this hole was
in a measure due to«a violent storm that
broke over the links about that time. That
terminated the match, and. even with his
7, Herreshoffs card for the fifteen holes
showed only two worse than 4s.
Coincident with the match play rounds In
the various divisions was a four-ball com
i-Tltlun during the afternoon. Team- fr< m
.twenty-odd clubs entered, and when the
last card had been returned Walter J.
Travis and John Ward, representing ("Jar
den City, were found to b« the winners.
with a best ball of 72. The summaries

motor cars In the races on the Motor Speed
way here >-day and the new course, tha
only brick track In the world. Justifed tb«
hopes of Its constructors that It wouU.
prove satisfactory.
• In three different classes of Americas
stock cars time was hammered clown. Th«
drivers opened their engines to the ltmU
and fought every foot of the way. Th«
chief fixture of the day was the 100-mil«
race, for cars of 301 to 430 cubic Inches pis
ton displacement. It was won by KlncaM\
driving a National car. in the fast Una of
1:23:43. The previous record, set by Chevt*
let in a Buick at Atlanta, was 1:24:05.
11l fortune took this race away from '
Dawson. driving a Harmon. He led tha'
field from the tenth to the eighty-fifth mil*,
but dropped behind by the fouling of %
spark plug and could not regain the lost .
ground.
Kincaid, rushing down the home stretch,
barely escaped crashing into the press
stand when one of h!3 rear tires ripped Off
and hurtled high in the air. By clever
work he held his car to the track, and a
roar of cheers testified to the approval of
the crowd.
In the five-mile -a M for cars of the saras
clas3 Kincaid broke another record. win
r.ine over Dawson and Harroun. both driv
in Harmons, by a tremendous burst of
speed In the homestretch that carried him
to the front. His time was 5:05. bettering
the former record by forty seconds.
Harroun had his Inning in the ten-nil*
race for cars of 231 to 300 inches displace
ment. He won in 8:1$, smashing the former^
record of 9:03. Chevrolet, driving a Buick
car In the five-mile race for the little cars
of 161 to 230 inches displacement, won with
a brilliant dash in 4:41. breaking the pre
vious time of 5:13.
The withdrawal of all the Buick ana
Jackson entries because the technical con*-,
mittee barred several cars that were said
to exceed classification of power, caused
some wrangling. After several conferences
the Buick owner? consented to re-enter
those of their cars that met the American
Automobile Association rules, as interpret
ed by the technical committee.
There were no serious accidents. Tba
steering gear of Barney Oldfteld's Knoa
car broke as he was trying out his ma
chine before the first race was called, sat
he ran to the high edge of the bank on a
curve, but stopped safely. The accident
put him out of the races for the day, bat
he expects to start to-morrow. Fox.
driving a Pope-Hartford, also had a narrow
escape when the steering gear of his car
broke. The car shot into the inner ditch,
but did not turn over.
