IN THE WAKE OF THE GAME
By Gus Malbert.
DV fit's 31A LUCHT. .
Doctor Ayers yesterday aided tho
, Celts to pass the Tigers and get tntoj
second place. The Goobers helpe<!
along a little more by losing to Ports-'
( moUth. ;o that the count now stands
I just as It did at the beginning last
week?nkhmond one and one-half
;? lines behind the league leaders. Of
course lh<- season Is rather far ad-j
vnnced and the odds unquestionably j
favor Petersburg for repeating a
! champions of the league, but rJrlflln
j has a goodly crowd of ball players'
and s< ranger things have happened.]
One and one-half games are by no
Richmond would have won more I
? games but that the cleanup men of
j the team have fallen down sadly of
j late. nurko and Tennant especially
j have given Grlf cause for alarm, t.'su-i
I r.Ily dependable, there cleanup men j
"?cm to have struck a slump. When,
1 r nr. and two runs are winning for tho
'; opposition the pitching Ctarf of the
j Colts cannot be blamed. No pitcher)
can win ball games unlegg the club'
behind him Is scoring runs. F.<eallstng
I all this, but much against his will.I
I Grlf has changed his lineup. I.ead-j
ilng off Is not a comfortable position|
for the manager of a ball club, bat]
I since Grlf gets or. with about as much I
regularity as nny other mnn on the|
j club. It Is probably a wise move. Burke
j has been shoved down to fifth place,]
Raley strpplng up to tho critical sta-j
J t'on. Kineo the chnnge, two games;
have been won which it sufficient]
I justification therefore.
Avers established the league record;
; for the prci-.-tit season. It is the first
t.me during 1912 thnt a pitcher has
started twice In on.: day and como|
home winner in both contests. It
wasn't luck either. Ju?t good pitch-;
Ing, with only one run scored In elgh-j
teen Innings Against him. True th,v
Tigers managed to get 11 hits in th?i
second game. But hits means noth-l
ing unless they count In making runs !
Avers feat Is worthy of the big fel-j
low and pimply shows that the con-'
1 tldenee Imposed In him has not been
misplaced. If the Colts should win!
the pennant It will be largely due to!
the aid given by the Htilsvllle voting-1
ster.
Over In Washington they are setting;
great stores by Ayers. Mike Kahfi>,
scout-tn-chlef to Clarke Griffith be?
lieves that the boy will develop into]
a phenom, once he is given the proper
Instruction and encouragement. Clark!
Griffith, one of tho masters nt the
game of strategy and one of thei
fixlest mounii nrtl.'ts the gnme has]
produced, has promised that he will
give Ayers the benefit of everything
he knows. "I will take hint in hand I
and If ho is nt all willing and his I
any brains, with his natural ability
J will make him one of tho stars of the
two big leagues."
Ayers has about everything which
goes to make up a great pitcher. II?
ls young, has shown that he is. in
terested In tho Kam?, has said that
he expects to make It his profession i
for life. Is as attong as the proverbial
ox, Is willing ami ?nxlous to learn and
lives on work. Griffith made no mis?
take In getting the youngster while j
he Is sill', green. Many a young and |
promising ball player has been ruln< d
by staying in the bushes entirely too |
long. They learn things which It re?
quires years to unlearn, and there
are few managers who aro willing to
expt r.<l either tho tlmo or the money
to help them.
Joe Boehllng has been recalled b;
the Natlonnis. He will report as s/o
as tho season In the New ldiglan
season is at an end. Griffith r< illzt
that Boehllr.g, whtic not quite ripe, i
so nearly so that n trial at this ttm
Is not quite a gamble. Since going t
New Kngland, the local lad has wo
a large percentage of his gam's an
has developed Into that unusual thin:
?a heavy-hitting pitcher.
While speaking of the Nationals,
the sale by which Roach. InfWder, and
Pelty. pitcher, have gone to Raltl?
more, was not unexpected. Barney
Pelty has shot his bolt many rnonthr.
niro. He was not lrt out by St. I*ouI?
until he was all In. Roach Is not
big league timber nnd will never be.
Why Griffith broke a winning combi?
nation Is hard to understand. BVer
since Ray Morcan has been benched
and Laportc, bought from St. Ixiul?
placed at the keystone sack. Washing?
ton has been losing. Griffith says that
he made the change to strengthen the
batting of the club. That's a mighty
good argument, but what does It help
If the club Is batting .llO-a and losing
: tmes? Isn't it better to have club
hitting around .250 and winning than a
club composed of league leaders It;
the sticking line nnd losing? Of
course, that's a question for Orljfftth
to decide. But lie has lost his 0hanC<
for the pennant, and he will be an
allflre-d lucky mnn If his club finishes
as good as third. The Athletics ar.
coming mighty strong.
A mistuke seems to have been nn.l"
by the entire local press, ourselves In?
cluded. Whllo the Battle Axe te?rf
seems to liav,- won the pennant In th.
Capital City League, it Is by no means
cinched. On Saturday there are twe
games scheduled, which may again
throw the Rattle Axe and the Col?
legians Into tie. Should the Soulhcrr
Bell win from the Rattle Axe and the
Collegians win from Ashland, the two
teams will bo tied for first honors, nnd
it will be up to tie commission to de?
termine when and where the tie Is
played off.
The r.lants aro hitting the grease
trail these days with surprising res
ularlty. A few weeks ago McGra
, anil his men were so far In front th?
It required a field glass to even sc
their cont tails. Now the Cubs arc
making seven-league strides toward
the front. At the same time Charles
Webb Murphy has been given n cruel
but deserved slap in the face by sug?
gesting Hint Roger Rresnahan, of the
Cards, wruld lay down to the Giants.

Grantland Rice, whose syndicated
j "F aying the Game, with Grantland
ttlee" |h winning fame anil money for
; the clever author, records some scin?
tillations from tho mouths of the men
' who bat oftenest against the premier
pitchers. According to Rice, who hap?
pens lo bo of the South, though at
present the baseball expert on the Now
. Vork Evening Mail, never hav there
I been a (linger who had "anything."
"Anything," In baseball parlance, is
that something which pitcher is sup?
posed to use on a thrown ball by
, which ho fools the batter,
Most of the batsmen after they have
' been bewildered, say that they are
surprised that so-and-so won because
? he had absolutely nothing, in other
I words, when you hear a ballplayer
' say that a pitcher h is "nothing," put
it down that that pitcher is winning
I ball garr.eB.
Comes Professor v>'. a. Wilson, of
Columbia University, telling "Why Is a
Curve." It seems that Daniel ncr
noullll, a Swiss, discovered that the
wind, acting on a thrown ball, pro?
duced certain kinds of movements in
the ball, and mnde the ball curve. Of
< ts", it's perfectly plain now. Only
the fellow who throws a curve will
probably not quit.- understand the
"earned professor. At least we're
gu lty.
Jack Martin has been sent back to
j the minors. Rochester, who were
'. handed Jack Qulnn. now get Martin
and send to Harry Wo'.verton and Iiis
Klitles McMillan, who will play the
short field In future, or at least until
he falls to make good. Martin's fault.
In tho big Bhow was his fault here,
playing too deep ar.i having too many
Infield hits beat out. In other respects

i MYSTERY I0W
ABOUT CURVES
Delusive Hooks of Gunners Fully
Explained by Columbia Uni?
versity Professor.
Now York. August 13.?The "why"
of a baseball curve should no longer
i he a mystery, at least to the students'
of the Columbia University summer
school. in a lecture on the "Science,
o'i Baseball Curves" last night. Pro-j
t,r?r,r W. S. Prankllhi explained it all
as follows:
"The whole secret of a cUrved ball
lies In the relation of the pre sure]
t, thd velocity" and vice versa, coir
ball creating its own paossuro by
the velocity and the spin that the
pitcher gives It ns it leaves his hand.;
"Daniel Bernoulli!, n Swiss physi?
cist, who died in 17S2, was the man
who discovered the principle. He was
observing a stream of water that;
flowed through wide pools and narrow]
shoals, In the pools he soon found;
that the pressure was very great while
the velocity was almost nothing; In
tin shoals M saw that the velocity
waa very swift, while the pressure
had almost disappeared.
"This is the principle that governs
lh< Might und curve of a ball. If the
h.ills sails Straight through the air
with ho spin, the air in pushed aside
equally In all directions and the
ball la directly tinder the control of
gravity SO far as Its curve Is con?
cerned and It noon falls to the ground.
Whereas If the front of tho bnll is
given a downward spin, there i< In
addition to the. Straight' forcing aside
.,1 the air, a circular motion of the
?Mr around the ball, This motion
being over nnd then under the ball,
tend* to Increase tho speed with
which tho air passes beneath the
ball und retards it above tho ball."

RANDOLPH-MACON
DISPUTE IN COURT!
Argument on Dissolution of In?
junction to Be Had on
September 7.
Argument on tho application for
dissolution of the Injunction against
the Virginia Methodist Conference and
the trustees of itandolph-Macon <'oi
|?g? ?Iii be hnd before Judge R, H. I..
C-ntchcstcr, in the Circuit Court of Han?
over County, on September 7. Tho
rival camps are preparing for the issue,
which will settle one phase of the lonvr
controversy.
What was supposed to be a solution
of the question was reached sonic time
ago when it was agreed that the trus?
tees Should nominate men to till such
vacancies as might occur In the hoard,
subject to ratification by the Virginia
and Baltimore Conference-.
Pursuant to this agrcmont, the board
j nominated persons to fill vacancies
an 1 presented the nominations to tho
I Virginia Conference at Salisbury, .Md.
Thereupon four dissenting members
I {if the board, headed by Lodge B. I'.
Newman, of Woodstock, frocured a tem
I porary Injunction which resulted In
I tying up all further procedure along
this line before tJ.e conference iJOUld
i act.
It is the contention of the four pe?
titioners that the board of trustees ";
the Itnndolph-Mucoh system is sclf
pefpc Mating under Its charter from
the state, that large smus of money
have been accepted front contributors
with tliis understanding, utid thai no
conference has any rights over the
fuliltllng of vacancies. The whole,
question arose over the attempt of the
Kandolph-Alncon system a few years
ago to be place 1 under the Carnegie
foundation, one of the requirements
of which i-1 that the school which ben
elits shall not be denominational. A
faction proteslc.1 iigalnst this, and In?
sisted that the fatuous chain Of insti?
tution* should bo Melhodlst.
Bid hoi ri few believe that the so
called Bttttiement was no settlement
at ail, Should the conferences refuse
to ratify n nomination the trustees
could insist and name tho person do
