Dodgers Repeat Victory Over Yankees in Second Game of Series? Giants Win by Alito 1
Marquard undAl Mamaux
Shitt Out Rivals by 3 to 0
MeOraw and Mays Batted Hard by Better-Condi
tioned Brooklyn Players; Kuth Gets One of Two
Safetic? Yielded by Rube in Four Innings
By W. J. Macbeth
JACKSONVILLE, Fla., March 18.?Fresh from their soeial triumphs
nver thc world's champion Reds and the great wintoring places of^south
eaatern Florida, th?. Yankees Struck a Tartar in Wilbert Robinson's
T^odgers here this afternoon and were shut out by a seoi'e of 3 to 0. It
was the second straight reverse in as many games in the spring exhibition
games against Brooklyn played to date. The Dodger victory was decidedly
nore clear-cut than the opening triumph of Saturday last.
Brcoklyn demonstratcd one very<s
plain fact: that club, by and large, is
^n far better physical condition. "Tiny"
Maxwell, Philadelphia's largest sport?
ing writer, who watched the battle. has
already visited a dozen major league
clubs at their training camps. Maxwell
says the Brooklyn players are further
advanced in training than any other
team he has seen so far. They sure-iy
looked the part by comparison this
afternoon.
This difference in physical condition
wm typified in the rare class of pitch
ing Uncle Robbic was able to present
against Miller Huggins's famed "raur
derers' row." Marquard and Al
Mamaux completely baffied the New
Yorkers from start to finish. The
?outhpaw, who gained fame for and
with the Giants, pitched the first four
innings. He allowed only two hits,
both of which came in the second in
ning.
Olson Still Missing *Em
In three of the innings Rube got the
side in order. But for Olson's muff
no Yankee would have reached second
ftgainst him. Ruth opened the second
with a powerful single, but would have
been doubled stealing as Aaron Ward
fanned had Olson clung to Elliott's
good throw.
Mamaux pitohed quite as * nbly,
though he encountered more trouble.
Olson muffed Fewster's easy fly in the
sixth and Peckinpaugh followed with
a flukey Texas Leaguer to right. But
two were out at thc time and Pipp hit
straight to Johnston. Ruth drew a
pass in the seventh, but after Aaron
Ward flied out, Mamaux whiffed both
Vick and Bodie.
Mays beat a bunt with only one down
in the eighth, but two force plays at
second followed. Pipp opened the ninth
with a single. Ruth fiied to left and
A. Ward popped to Olson. A passed
ball put Pipp on second, where he died
as Vick ended the game with a wicked
liner to Chick Ward.
Battery Errors Costly
Bob McGraw pitched five innings for
the Yankees and Carl Mays nnished.
Battery errors in the second gave tho
Dodgers their run off Mac. A bad
thrown by the piteher gave Myers a life
with one out. Hi sprinted to third
when Koney, on a prettily executed hit
'and run play, singled to right. He
scored on a wild pitch which was the
fourth ball and which let Chuck Ward
all the way to second.
Mays was hit hard in tho sixth.
Wheat, Myers and Koney all singled in
order, accounting for one run. Myers
scored on Otto Miller's fly to deep
center.
The Yankees played listless ball af
times. Evidently their recent journey
ings had them travel weary. They
didn't keep their heads up to embrace
several opportunities.
Roger Peckinpaugh, first up in tlie
fourth, plainly loafed on a grounder to
.lohnston. Jimmy fumbled badly but
recovered in time to nail Peck by
inches.
Both the Yankee hits off Marquard
came in the second, and he was somo
what lucky to be able to start a double
play on Bodie following Vick's scratch
hit. The Rube speared the wicked !
hopper as it was about to bound over
his head.
Ni'is Gets Three Hits
Neis. Uncle Robbie's young right
fielder. is practicing with the Brooklyn
day. He had three hits in four times ;
at bat. He was cool as could be and i
handled a bat as if familiar with thc
implement.
Babe Ruth had only one hit, but he
chased back both Neis and Wheat for ;
captures that would have been extra
base knocks for ordinary ball players.
The outfielders' hold thc fences when
Ruth is at bat.
Ping Bodie was working well. Hc
inade one beautiful throw that foilcd
Koney's attempt to move from flrst to
third on a long single.
Armando Marsans, the Cuban out
flelder, is practising with the Brooklyn
club. The Dodgers all declare him in
excellent condition. Xew Vork has
promised Marsnns to thc Red Sox. Ar?
mando is on the ineligible list and is
here to have Huggins help him get back
in the good grat.es of tlu> National
Commission.
The failure of Mays to cover first
base on a puzzling roller that got
through Pipp cost him one run. Few
ster got the ball in time to flag the
batter, but there was no one at Bipp's
Etation to take a throw.
Chicago Cubs Connting
On Herzog to Play
CHICAGO, March 18?Pennant
hopes for the Chicago Nationals as
cended a notch to-day when headquar
ter? here received reports that "Buck"
Herzog, veteran second bascman, had
p"a)rformed creditably in a practice
game yesterday at Los Anireles. Her?
zog played in a new steel harness be?
cause of an internal injury suffered
since the Cubs started spring train?
ing at Pasadena, Calif.
Upon his showing in yesterday'a
practice session, it had been announced,
depended whether Herzog immediately
underwent an operation or would be
able to play through the season.

Fordham Baseball
Squad Has First
Outdoor Practice
Arthur Devlin, the Fordham Uni?
versity baseball coach, took advantage
of the mild weather yesterday after?
noon and put his charges through their
first outdoor practice session. Forty
candidates reported for the initial drill,
which lasted for two hours and con
sisted of batting and fielding.
Finn, Halloran and MacNamara, the
veteran twirlers, each took a turn on
the mound, along with Waters,' a
youngster from Watertown, Mass., and
Culloton, formerly of Ulster Acad?
emy. The latter made quite a repu
tation in hi* higff school days and is
expected to add some much needed
strength to the pitching staff.
The infield consisted of McLoughlin,
of last year's ninr. at first base;
Cochran, of Flemington Uigli School,
at second; Captain Lefevrc :it third
and Start. of Xavier fligh School, at
short.
The most likely aspirants for the
outfield position? are Buckley and
Keough, of the 1919 aggregation;
Stocker and Jordan, of Evander Childs
High School, and Mulry, of Fordham
Prep. It is predicted that Buckley,
whose heavy hitting was a big factor
in many of Fordham's victories last
year, will be one the college '"finds"
of the coming campaign. ln addition
to his strong batting and fast base
running, Buckley fiinshod last season
with a perfect fielding average.
Maryland Jockey Club
Asks New Claiming Rule
In an attempt to correct the abuse
of claiming races the Maryland Jockey
Club has rcouested that a rule of rac
itig be suspended during the coming
May meeting at Pimlico. This is Rule
172A, which reads:
"Every horte running in a selling
race may he claimed by sny one after
the race for his entered price plu* the
value 0!' the race to the winner and as
much in addition as the claimer wishes
to bid.-' '??-?
For the racing at Pimlico it is ro
qucsted that the owner, nr any one act?
ing for him, be barred from claiming
his own horse.
The amendment. is suggested to dis
courage the practice of entering a
horse at much less than his value and
then, by putting in a claim, protect
him. This i^ an abuse that has been
made of the selling race for a consid
erable time, and it has occupied the at?
tention of the stewards of the Jockey
Club on various occasions.
It is also suggested that in the event
of a horse bcinjr claimed he be prohib
ited from again starting in the inter?
ests of his original owner during that
meeting. The Kentucky rule covering
this phase of selling races prohibits
the starting of a horse in other than
the interest of the man making ? the
claim for a period of thirty days. The
reason for this is to prevent the
"friendly claims" that have from time
to time been an evll of the claiming
MacGuire Beaten
By Wainwright
On Yale Courts
Stuyvesant Wainwright sprang a big
surprise in the semi-fmal round of the
Yale Club squash championship tour?
nament yesterday afternoon, when he
defeated C. J. MacGuire, 15?11. .8?15,
15?9. 16?8. Wainwright's vlctoy was
scored in decisive f ash ion and left no
doubt as to his superiority.
The surprising part of Wainwright's
victory is that he has been rated as a
Class B player, whereas MacGuire has
been holding his own among the Class
A players for the last, year. Wain?
wright has a very sneedy delivery, but
usually is lacking in control. Yester?
day, however, he had control, and the
result was a comparatively easy vic?
tory. He is coming along at a rapid
rate and is counted on to make all
opponents hustle from now on.*
Wainwright will meet A. J. Cordier.
the present national champion, in the
final round to-morrow afternoon, and
many look to see him give the title
holder a hard struggle for top honors.
Winston Defeats Tomes
In Harvard Squasb Play
Erie S. Winston, former national
squash champion, defeated A. H.
Tomes, 15?6, 15- 7, in the third
round of the Harvard Club squash
tournament yesterday afternoon. In
another match George M. Rushmore
defeated George Taylor 15?-11, y>?1.
?Winston and Rushmore will meet in
thc semi-final round this afternoon and
the winner will play agaist Fillmore
Yan S. Hyde, national champion two
years ago, in the final round to-mor?
row afternoon. Judging from the play
of the contestants it appears as though
the two former title-holders, Winston
and Hyde, will be the competitors in
the final meeting.
Columbia Fencers on Trip
The championship Columbia fencing
team will meet the University of Penn?
sylvania this afternoon at Philadelphia
in the first of two week-end matches.
The second match will be to-morrow
evening with the Naval Academy at

olf Is Supplaiiting Cricket
As England's National Pastime
Captain Clarke Says That
Every Village Has Links
and All Play the Game
Golf, the national game of Scotland,
is coming along at such a rapid clip j
in this country that it is fast approach- !
ing the degree of popularity^baseball
enjoy-;. And now comes word'by Cap- !
tain Charles Clarke, who has just come \
to this country from England and who j
is to be the "pro" at the Engineers' ;
Club on Long Island, that the ancient i
game has boomed tremendously since |
; the armistice and will undoubtcdly '
supplant cricket as England's national j
pastime in a year or two.
"The English are fast tiring of j
cricket. because it takes so long to
play a game, and it is a sort of drawn- i
j out affair anyway," said Captain
j Clarke. "I know from the way golf
1 is booming it will not be long before
: it will be England's national'game, the
i same as it Scotland's. There is one
| thing about golf that makes it dif
ferent from all other games; the player
j gets the most enjoyment out of it, and
it is the dub who does the most play
ing.
"Prior to the war the English thought
; golf was a game more for the rich than
j for thc 'worker. This illusion seems
to prevail in this country, too, although
| it is rapidly disappearing as it is in
l England. (Jolf is not an expensive
; game to play. and when a person once
; learns this fact it does not take long
to make a golf convert of him.
"Very few of tlie middle class in
England played the game before the
war. But when. they got into the army
i the bank clerks and other such em
ployees were provided with golf equip?
ment; and once they learned to play
they never left off, And that applies
to any one who starts to play golf.
"Moreover, wages in England have
increased at least 100 per cent, con
sequently these fellows are in a better
position to play the game than ever
before.
"And how the clubs are springing
up in the various sections! It is be
coming so that, as in Scotland, prac?
tically every village has its links. At
any hour of the day you may find sev?
eral pairs of players roaming the
course. Cricket is on the slide, and
as the Scottish game grows in favor
each day the old Engiish game is
gradually gliding into oblivion."
We marvel at the skill of some of
the Scotch players, and yet their abil?
ity to perform on the links is as na?
tural as it is for Americans to play
baseball. Speaking of the game in
Scotland, Captain Clarke says:
"When a Scotchman comes home
from work in the evening he takes his
clubs and plays a round or two before
dining. Scarcely a village but has an
exeellent course and, best of all, in
many places it costs only a dollar a
year to belong to a club. Five doilars
will pay your way in any of them."
The tail Britisher, in discuasing the
proposed standardization of the golf
ball,. said he wasn't in favor of such
a move. But, he added, were the manu?
facturers to sell more thirty penny
wc*ight balls, and if the average player
used this size more often, a long strlde
would be taken toward the standardiza?
tion movement, and golfers, other than
stars and pros, would find they would
obtain better results in their gbme.

The Last Trail
You have stepped outside of ths village &
To answer an echoing fuiil;
You have traveled across old borders,
And tfurught it the Open Trail?
But to-morrow?or somewhat later?
You'li leave through the dusk or dew
By a trail where the dream is endless?
By a trail. that is ever new.
Distance Lends Enchantment
The bard waa entirely and eminently correct. "Distance iends en?
chantment." As further proof we have the case of "Babe" Ruth. Why
should the home-run king of baseball become so keen about the game of
golf? Ruth, like all other ball players, likes to see them travel. Taking
a full wallop he can lay against a baseball and possibly drive it 150 yards,
or maybe 500 feet. That distance would be close to his limit. But taking
a full wallop at a golf ball the roistering "Babe" can drive it from 250
to 300 yards, or almost twice as far.
There is also this difference?Ruth is being paid $20,000 a season to
hit home runs, whereas he has to dig down in his own pocket to pay for
the privilege of swatting those 250 and 300 yard drives at golf.
There are some to whom his work has been disappointing, but for a<
cove as only weighs 106 pounds Jeema Wilde has a peculiar knack ot not
only remaining on his feet but also collecting most of the points awarded
each bout. How much do they expect 106 pounds to yield for a crop,
anyway?
An Amaxing Turn
The records attached to the boxing career of Georges Carpentier are
a trifle more than amazing.
The Frenchman was born on January 12, 1894, so he is a trifle more,
than twenty-six years old, *
His last fight before the war was a victory over Kid Jackson at
Bordeaux on July 25, 1914. A week later the red ileluge arrived, and
Carpentier was forced to give up'Tsoxing for more than five years, at the
boxing prime of his career.
Yet with these five years wiped out the records show that he has
taken part in something over seventy-five ring battles with only six de
feats charged against him, and three of these regiatered before he was
seventeen years old.
When the Frenchman lost to Frank Klaus and Billy Papke he was
only eighteen years old, at an age where no one else would have even
considered taking on two such rugged and robust customers. Carpentier
iought his first engagement against Bourgeois when he was only thirteen
years old, and a year later, at fourteen, he scored his first knockout in
three rounds again Moinereau.
There have been kid phenoms in golf, tennis and other sports, but
records of professlonal boxerB scoring knockouts at fourteen are* ex
tremely few and thin.
Carpentier for the first time will now be tested after he has passed
| well into his prime. He was not sufficiently developed at nineteen or
twenty to be at his best. At twenty-six he is well matured and, with the
j skill, speed and hitting power which he undoubtedlf has, he will reach the
! United States as one of the greatest ring attractions the game has ever
I put f orward. The reserves will be needed to keep away the multitude
; when he slides into the resin for his first appearance here.
Spring Fandes

Looking at the ball.
When the elimination contest among the three A. E. F. delegates?

j hunch that the fur will be ten or twelve fathoms deep before the ultimate
i victor is at last awarded the chaplet of cherry blossoms. And perhaps a
battle between the A. E. F. winner and G. Carpentier wouldn't draw!
I Perhaps not!
Walsh, Mathewson, Cobb, Jeffries and other notables had their great
i est years around the ages of twenty-six and twenty-seven. If the same
| dope applies to Carpentier the Frenchman is now at the crest of his prime.
He is bound to be a far better man than he was around nineteen and
twenty. Dempsey at twenty was unknown. At twenty-one he was only
an ordinary boxer. Fitssimmons, Johnson and Willard were all over
thirty before they reached the top, but there were various reasons for
these late arrivals.
The German entry in the Olympic Games will still be restricted to
the brt>ad standing goose step. You can't aboliah a national pastime in
one or two yeara.

"San Antbnio's Greatest
Player" Displays All
Around Ability in Benefit
From a Special Corretpondent
SAN ANTONIO, Tex., March 18.?
Ross Young, San Antonio's greatest
ball player, showed the neighbors' chil?
dren why he ranks as one of the lead?
ing outfielders in the National League
in the exhibition game between the
Giants and the Bronchos this after?
noon at League Park. The contest was
for the benefit of the associated chari?
ties of this community.
In the six innings . that Young ap?
peared before the home folk he re?
ceived a base on balla, stole aecond,
hammered out a pair of two-baggers
and a single, scored three runs and
threw out a local player at the Frisch
corner when he essayed to go from
first to third on a single to right.
Young's playing greatly aided the
Giants in defeating the Bronchos in a
one-sided struggle by the score of 11
to 1.
The only tally made by the Bronchos
came in the eighth inning, while Jesse
Barnes, "thc pride of Circleville,
Kan.," was occupying the mound. With
Clyde Barfoot, the piteher, on third
base, Jesse uncovered a Wild pitch, and
thus the home gladiators wero saved
from a shut-out.
Giants Have New Mascot
It might be well to mention here
that the Giants have a new mascot.
He's a baby wildcat, and umpires who
work at the Polo Orounds this season
had better be careful how they render
their decisions.
Bill Klem will be the first of .the
National League umpires to inspect the
baby cat. Bill is expected here to-mor?
row to instruct thc players on the new
rules. Bill will also take a look at the
cat.
The new mascot of the Giants is six
months old and was presented to Man?
ager McGraw at the home plate before
the game started. Just to show Mc?
Graw how much the people here like
him, the Chamber of Commerce also
gave Jawn a silver loving cup.
As wildcats have not been barred as
yet in the National League it will be
brought back to New York and will sit
on tne Giants' bench while McGraw
and his men are baseballing under the
shadows of Coogan's Bluff. "Pennant"
was the name given to the wildcat by
McQtaw to-night.
Toney in Good Form
Fred Toney, of Billy Goat Hill, Ten
nessee, pitched the first five innings for
the Giants and allowed only four
singles.
The Giants scored early and often.
In the first inning they chased two
runs over the plate. Burns was safe
on Gross's fumble. Young walked.
Fletcher bunted, and when Muns threw
wild to third the bases were dolled up
with New York players. Doyle hit to
Fuller and Burns beat thc throw
home. Kauff's sacrifice fly carried
Young over the plate.
The Giants kind of spoiled the day
for the home fans by scoring three
runs in the second inning, after two
were out. Burns walked and stole. !
Young .followed with a double and
Fletcher with a prodigious home run
clout to deep center field. In the i
fourth the Giants added three more j
runs.
Muns retired in the fifth inning and
Barfoot took his place in the box.
Barfoot held the Giants scoreless in |
the sixth and seventh, but in the
eighth the slaughter was resumed.
Statz, who replaced Burns. singled to ;
right and stole second. Kinsella, who
supplanted Young, slammed a long
drive to deep right for the second
homer of the game, Statz scoring ahead.
The score:
