TRAVERS ISGIVEN BATTLE BY NEWTON Philadelphia. Pa, June 23. Jerome D. Travers. open golf champion of the United States, was given a terrific bat tle Tuesday by F. C. Newton, of New Tork, former Pacific coast champion, in the second round of match play for the Lynnewood Hall cup on the course at the Huntington Valley Country club. Travers pulled out a victory on the last five holes by the narrow margin of 3 up and 2 to play. Most of the bad luck seemed to follow Newton, includ ing unintentional interference by a spectator, but. despite this, he made the veteran work hard for victory. The greater part of the match was played In a driving rainstorm. DOUGLAS TO NACO ROAD RACE PLANNED Dnijirlas. Ariz.. June IS.

By FRANK NEW TORK. June 3. "A college oarsman touches the heights of . ..unselfishness." sojne one -once re marked. "He is cuseed for six mouths by the coach, he -works like a trojan during every spare moment during those six months. Is cheered by ihe crowd for -SO minutes and then Is far gotten forever." College football gladiators, track and field athletes and diamond stars have their names written larsre in the col legiate hall of fame. Their pictures peer out from every newspaper in the country and their prowess is heralded from one end of the land to the other. ' But who ever heard of a college oarsman being dragged Into the focus of the sporting spotlight so that the public could lionize him a bit for what has done. The chances are about 199 to 1 that vou never heard of a chap named C. C. Lund of Boston. Tet Lund has brought as much fame to "Harvard on the water as Charles Brickley ever brought through his football skill. Stroked Xlne Victories. Lund is the chap who has stroked Harvard to nine acqustic victories In a row. He smashed all precedents list year when he stroked the second Har vard crew to three victories in the bis Henley regatta in England. It was the first time that an American crew ever captured the historic eight oared racst yet Lund's achievement hardly was mentioned in any of the papers. Lund was at stroke oar when the sec ond Harvard team beat the Annapolis varsity and Tale juniors in the two 1914 regattas. Harvard, with Lund at stroke oar, won two races in the 1914 American Henley at Philadelphia. It was Lund who stroked Harvard to vic tory this year over the navy crew at Annapolis and Cornell crew at Ithaca, N. T.. on May it. "What the Stroke Does. For the benefit of the uninitiated It may be explained that the stroke oars men on a crew Is the chap who sets the pace. He is the man who must not fal ter; the man with the iron nerve and the iron will. He is the man who must respond first to every call for higher stroking and it is upon his perfection of stroke that victory depends. A crew without a good stroke oarsman is like a football team with a blind quarter back: like a baseball team with an armless nitcher. Columbia Had a Stroke. Columbia won the big Poughkeepsie varsity race last June Decause !t's stroke oarsman a little Irishman with mighty arms and a stout heart rose up like a Titan In that final heart breaking half mile by his marvelous generalship and his wonderful stroking enabled Columbia to maintain to the finish line the slight lead that It had over Pennsylvania. It was the grit and the never-say-dle spirit of that little Irishman that stif fened the backbones of his weary fel lows; that filled them with a new flsht ing spirit. The little Irishman pushed that Columbia stroke well above the 49 notch during the last half mile, and although wearied and tired almost to the point of exhaustion, his fellows followed him and Columbia won. It's a safe bet that today not 109 persons of the 75.00 who saw Columsla win that race can recall that little Irishman's name. And we daresay that there aren't 50 of Columbia's immense alumni that can recall the name of the chap who stroked a Columbia crew to victory in 1914 for the first time in somethink like 19 yeara The name of that little Irishman was McCarthy. Two chaps nearly gave their lives for the sake of Yale In 191J. They rowed in the boat that was beaten so decis ively by Harvard. Those chaps stuck to their oars until the finish line was crossed and then they collapsed in their seats. Their magnificent young strength had been broken by that ter rific four mile race. What they suf fered during the last two miles nearly reached the crest of human agony. Vet they suffered and stuck to their posts with a stoicism that even the Spar tan's couldn't excel. And for this they got a brief sympa thetic mention in the papers the jiext day and since have been forgotten. There are thousands of people in the T'nited States today who can tell you th njme of e erv roan who plaed on th. 1 D 14 Val. aril Hinaril football teams, but we daresay that Uire kzh $ mm KWfim G. MEXKE. aren't a thousand who can tell you off hand the names of even half of the men who rowed In the 1914 Tale and Harvard varsity crews. And the pity of it is that those oars men work harder and suffer more than the footballers, the baseballers and the trackmen put together. WAGNER MAKES HIS 100TH HOME RUN; 3131ST HIT Pittsburg. Pa.. June Zi. The home run made by Hans "Wagner, the Pirates' veteran shortstop. In the second Inning of the It inning contest with Philadel phia at Forbes field Monday, was the 199th of his career.

Bnt then, nobody loves a fat man. Get me? CTRIKE-BREAKERS in baseball? Yon bet! One member of the Vancouver team in the Northwest ern league was suspended for break ing some club rule and seven others went on strike. Bob Brown, brother of the Tucson magnate, got busy and hired seven strike-breakers and the Beavers kept their engagements. r- JVIARATH0N running is a severe strain on the athletes compet ing, according to some wise doc tors of Boston.

The Mackmen are agressive but don't stretch th ag gressiveness beyond reason. They are gentlemen both on and off the field. On their trip to Albuquerque, they traveled in a private car and were shown other favors by the rail road company. When a certain other team travels over that line, it gets no favors beyond a special police man being assigned to travel with the club. pOTJR great pacers, Directum I, 1:58; Frank Bogash, jr, 1:59; William, 2:00; and Anna Bradford, 2:00 are entered in the $5000 free-for-all of the Blue Ribbon Grand Circuit meet at Detroit, July 26 to 30.

It should be a pippin of a race. -TIP O'NEIL, president of the Western league, says that if the directors want to cut his salary, to go ahead and hell stand for it. Anyway, they consulted the victim first "Knockouts This Is the l'th of a series of stories on famous knockouts knockouts which have gone down into pugilistic history either on ac count of turning a losing battle Into a winning one or because of the sensational manner In which they were landed. By ED. W. SMITH. T ERG'S a yarn about how a whole family of about 59 brothers, cousins, uncles everybody but the aunts was knocked out cold at a glove contest on the east side of Chi cago. P. J. Carroll, who used to operate ex tensively In the boxing game, now with a club or two and then again with a fighter or two, had a lightweight on his staff named Frankie Baker, and he was one of the toughest little bits of fighting machinery one would find in a year's travel. The Baker boy came -from a good family and was a wildly enthusiastic young fellow who fought because he loved It and fairly reveled In the game. There was no stopping to him at alL Family Frowned on Game. Now the Baker family frowned on Frankle's athletic ambition. They couldn't see such a career at all for their dear little boy and as a result things were a bit unpleasant at home for Frankla. But he kept on fighting Just the same, kept on winning and kept on arousing the family curiosity by his feats. Rut the Family Gave In. Finally, after Baker had won eight or nine contests, the family decided it was about time to give the boy a little encouragement, byjendlng its august presence at the ringside. So the next time a show was staged at the 12th street Turner hall, it tickets were pur chased in a block and the Baker family deposited itself therein to watch the young offspring do himself proud, and Incidentally do the other fellow good. Frankle's opponent that night was the redoubtable "Stockings" Kelly, who "BECK." pVERY time a baseball writir re f era to "innings' for "inrdng,, I think of cricket and then wonder where -under the sun that Australian skypUot who stopped "the silly game" of baseball on the ground that it was brutal and dangerous, was brought up. Cricket is the great game of Australia, but after seeing an all-star Australian team play one of the best American elevens, the writer refused to even get excited. Being hit by a batted tennis ball is just as dangerous as being hit by a baseball and if baseball is danger ous and brutal, then our skypilot friend should also taboo cricket. However, baseball might be danger ous on the ground that it might tend to produce heart trouble while no one could charge that to cricket. In many English and Australian schools, cricket is a compulsory exer cise and that's how they keep the bally game going, dontcherknow. QE0RGE DTJDDY, take notice! The moguls of the Central league have decreed that no players shall be permitted to wear caps while off duty. It will be up to George to buy a silk topper if a similar rule is put in force in the Rio Grande cir cuit. CL0UFEDS are causing some fuss in the Federals. They jumped out of the cellar and got into the first division in a flurry, and when they took four straight from the Newark club they stirred up the owners of that dub so much that they fired manager Phillips. OARVARD and Yale pull off their annual boat race on Friday. Many local men are interested in this race and many inquiries have been sent in, the impression beinc that it was scheduled for last week. The Poughkeepsie regatta takes place on Saturday. Syracuse is looked upon as a probable winner, with Leland Stanford a "dark horse." I Have Seen1 was pretty good Just then and could battle like an enraged tiger. Fought Like "Wildcat And they went at It like a couple of wildcats. Baker to show the home folks how good he was and Kelly to demonstrate that the folks ought to keep Frankie at home. In about 39 seconds both men were "busted" and covered with blood. Baker got an early lead and was ham mering Kelly freely during the first two rounds, but in the third the old fox in the Irishman began to crop out in his generalship and Frankie was having a rough passage: Suddenly Frank got a wallop on the Jaw and down he tumbled. He tried to wink at uncle Bob and cousin Lou through the gore that smeared his fea tures. The wink being a failure he essayed a grin Just to show that everything was lovely and for the folks not to worry. The Home Folks Bolted. The grin settled it. None of the home folks ever having seen a ring combat before nobody had ever seen a bloodier one than this, by the way they didn't know what was happening, but in a few seconds uncle Dave realized it must be something dreadful.
