Listen! No matter what happens.
Manager Bert Conn is always ready to
talk baseball, and there is no branch of
the national game on which Manager
Conn is not able to converse. While
still 11 young man, "Bert" Conn has fol
lowed baseball for a long time. He is
one of the few managers who is always
watching every movement of a player.
The Trenton leader still has an idea
that he will win the Tri-State pennant
and gives notice that the Tigers will
be e»wiO| hard from now until the
finish.
Manager Conn is s great admirer of
Connie Mack and has been watching the
big league game closely. He expressed
hie opinion that the Athletics had
the pennant cinched, and that in order
to win out the New York Giants will
have to get the best of Chicago.
There 1 » a probability that Tom

propose to keep his present lino-up in

the season.
NEWPORT. July 31—Tennis cracks
may come «and tennis cracks may go,
but William A. Lamed plays on for- \
ever. Lamed In baseball terms. Is
the Christy Mathewson of tennis. |
Though one of the oldest veterans in
the game, he retains much of his dash
and skill and Is expected to make a
good showing In the national cham
pionship games which will begin *hero !
'August 16. Recently he showed that j
he was rounding into form for the i
national championships when he and
Beals C. W'rlght at Boston defeated j
those two brilliant members of the !
younger set, Raymond D. Little and |
Theodore Roosevelt Pell, in the Long- ]
wood doubles match. Lamed opines '
that he will again capture the national
title at New port this year. Players
from the Pacific coast—McLoughlln,
Bundy and Johnston—will battle
against Lamed and other eastern
stars.
CHICKS OPEN
HOME SERIES
TOMORROW
After a ten day road trip during
which they played every team -on the
circuit, the Chicks will get home to
night to open a six game series, be
ginning with Allentown tomorrow. A
double header Is announced for Sat
urday afternoon.
Although the Chicks have not had
as successful a trip as was expected,
the club Is still leading the league by
nine and one half games, and looks
more than ever like the pennant win
ner. Fourteen more home games are
scheduled and an even break on these
will more than keep the club out of
danger of losing the season honor.
All over the circuit it Is concteded
that Wilmington cannot lose the
flag.
Should the Chicks win the pennant
it Is likely that a series of games
will be played between the locals and
the winner of the New York State
League championship.
