Baseballs won't be so lively any
more, according to a story going
the rounds today. An attempt
will he made to strike a happy medium
between the old rubber centre ball anil
the present extra lively rubber-coated
i’ork centro sphere. The latter ball is
said to -be responsible for the great
batting streak this year evident In the
big leagues. Tho order now Is that the
extra lively ball must be made less so.
The first hatch of rubber-coated > ork
centre balls that made this appearance
last year seem to he nearly the me
dium to the writer. They arc lively
enough to suit any tastes, but I found
them not to be too lively. With a
slight "speeding'' up they should do.
The writer does not think the balls
are altogether responsible l’or the
heavy hitting. He’s inclined to think
that the uncertain weather of this
spring has been anything but inducive
to getting pitchers In good shape.
One way to shorten the game is 1 >
allow the pitcher but a certain time to
deliver the ball or have a "ball1' called
on him. Pitchers waste too much time
and do not allow a new pitcher tep
minutes or so to g< warmed up. The
relief twlrler should be warmed up all
the time.
Decoration Day at Bonin's Lincoln
Park, Paterson, Fred Debars, of the
New York A. C., w ill race Louis Scott,
of the South Paterson A. C'., In a spe
cial three-mile match. That this race
will bo a great one, if both men are
•in the proper condition, cannot he
doubted. The veteran Bellars will have
his hands full with a youngster nice,
Scott. The former is in more danger
of defeat than Scott is the belief lot
many, including the writer.
A big surprise is promised by th*
Ironsides in a day or two in regard
to a new bas.cball field for the Hill
team.
The site of the new place is not
know'h. blit the Ironsides say it will
he it good one. This Ironside and
Hay View Wheelmen battle has cer
tainly been a "war."
Sde Larry Sutton is on the job again
for Brooklyn. A new outfielder named
Smith has been purchased by the Super
has from the Montgomery club. Larry
went oftt looking for a man to hit
fourth' irt The batting order. That’s his
one ambition just notv. Mi. Smith is
probably the first candidate lor the job.
To tli« (Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
Is the pivot blow allowed, or would j
a boxer be disqualified for using same I
according to rules (Marquis of Queona
bury)? I saw this punch used by Biz
Mackey and by Irish Paddy at the
National Club, of Brooklyn, and it was
declared O. K. by the referee (Jim
Stewart). Was this punch considered
a foul after the Dempsey-Le Blanche |
famous fight a decade ago? Thanking I
you in advance for the information, t ‘

the Kramer-Fenn and the Mac

two heats to be declared the winner.
This race is more to the liking of
Champion Kramer than the three-team

Fogler humbled thn champion. While
Kramer has had little, success In races
of this kind lie was pleased when Man
ager Chapman arranged the match for
it will give Kramer and his mate,
Willie Fenn. an opportunity to square
accounts with MacFarland and Clarke.
The Wlley-Collins motor-paced inat"l)
will lie run in one heat, and the dis

BILLY LEWIS VERY
EARNESTLY TRAINING
FOR KURTZ BOUT
I
Former Realizes He Must Be in
Great Shape to Battle
With Ghetto Boy.
I
Billy lewis, the local bt>>, is
preparing these days at Troxler’s
Central Institute for the most im
portant bout of his enroer—a battle
with Y'oung Kurtz—to be held at
Brown's Gymnasium next Tuesday
night.
Lewis is heart and soul in his work
and is getting himself into the best
shape of his life. Billy Is a very strong
young man, lights all the time while
he is in the ring, never giving his op
ponent a bit of rest. To light that kind
of battle a boxer must be in elegant
shape.
Lewis knows that, and with that end
ill view never missed a stroke of work
In his training that would make him a
better boy.
Billy realizes that in Kurtz he is
meeting n tough customer, a boy who
Is improving all the time and who has
the wallop that wafts one to sleep, if
landed In the right place.
That is the reason Lewis is so strict
with ilia training (his time. He is get
ting himself like a rock. Ho goes
i through all prize lighters' pet indoor
stunts from the weights to boxing,
putting particular stress on the use of
the medicine ball. Lewis lies flat on
his back and throws the hail from the
floor to a training partner, who lies in
the same position. Billy claims this
exercise gives him great strength of
shoulders and arms, whence all the
power of his blows eome. There is one
thing about Billy Lewis—Ills earnest
ness. Before Billy amounted to any
i tiling much, pugllistically, lie trained
just as he does now. The writer re
members one day very well when Letvis
quietly entered Kline's gymnasium,
where he had a locker. Lewis, without
noticing a single man in the place,
went through an hour's work. Several
in the place remarked about the earn
estness of the boxer and some predict
ed that some day that quality would
bring Lewis to some position in the
pugilistic ranks.
Lewis's battle will be for tile welter
weight championship of New Jersey,
which Kurtz holds b> virtue of his
victory over Kid Wilson, who beat
Billy Leary for the honors.
In order to gel himself in the tough
est shape, Lewis is going to take on
Billy Allen, at the National A. C., of
Brooklyn, Saturday, in a ten-round
main bout. Billy expects to get n good
workout for his Kurtz bout with Alien.
NEXT BATCH OF BASEBALLS
FOR THE MAJOR LEAGUERS
WON'T BE SO LIVELY.
CHICAGO, May 17.
□EAVY batting, which hus been
the despair of pitchers since tho
opening of the 1911 baseball seu
.-on will bn ■ urtalled, according to the
statement of a representative of a base
ball factory yesterday. It Is said the
next supply of official balls for the
clubs of the major and minor leagues
will not be ns lively a* the ones now
In use.
According to the factory represent
ative the present lively hall, which pro
duced 367 runs in three days In the
major leagues, was due to a hint from
the baseball powers that there was not
enough batting to suit the "fans." Now
the "tip” has gone forth that the
games are too long because of the
great Increase in batting,
ft is not intended to revert to the old
hall which produced so many few-hlt
contests and made many championship
affairs merely a battle between pitch
ers, but to strike a happy medium
about on the middle ground between
♦he old ball and tho new.
EVERS CANNOT STAND
ON FEET TEN MINUTES.
CHICAGO. May 17.—Johnny Evers,
second baseman of the Chicago Na
tionals, will probably bo out of the
game for some time, and there Is reason
to believe that lie will not play again
this season.
PreBidont Murphy, of the Cubs, re
ceived a letter from Evers yesterday,
who Is now at Iris home in Troy. N. Y.,
and the news was anything but encour
aging. Evers complains that hie nerves
ore completely gone. He is unable to
remain on his feet for ten minutes at
a time, and the attack is so severe
that it has caused large swellings
about Ihf- face.

SWAYNE, JIM CLEARY AND
JENKINS REPORTED SOLD
Billy Gilbert, So the Rumor Goes, Has Arranged
to Take the Three Men with Him to
the Erie 0. and P. League Team.
SWAYNE AND CLEARY MAY QU T RATHER
THAN GO BACK TO THE CLASS C ORGANIZATION
rFTom a Staff Correspondent.]
BUFFALO, N. Y., Muy 17.
AFTER yesterday's rain, which was
almost general along the East
ern League circuit, uud also
prevented the last game of the Provi
dence-Buffalo series here, the sky was
still overcast with clouds, but it prom
ised to be clear by noon.
Billy Gilbert, the former Giant second
baseman, who was a member of the
world’s champion Giants In 1WJ5 and is
now managing the Erie. Pa., team of
the Ohio and Pennsylvania League, was
awaiting the Tigers at their hotel last
night. Billy came to see if he could not
induce Joe McGinnlty to part with some
of his youngsters.
Gilbert arranged with Joe McGinnlty,
according to a tip, to take Frank
Swayne, Joe Jenkins and Jimmy Cleary
back to Erie, Pa. It Is understood that
Swayne will only be loaned, but waivers
will have to bo secured first. Frank
has not had an opportunity to show his
real worth. He was second high in the
batting average of tho Tri-State League
last year, hitting at a .330 clip all sea
son, and he does not like tho idea of
being sent to a class C organization.
Perhaps he will balk and return tb his
town fn Austin, Pa., an hour's ride from
Buffalo.
Jimmy Cleary returned here with Cy
Parkin from Newark this morning and
may decide to quit the game. If he la
compelled to play with Erie. This is
his honic town and he has received an
offer to pitch on Sundays for 125 a
game.
As to Jenkins, he needs more season
ing before he can make good in the
Eastern Leugue.
The Bisons have been hitting a fast
pace sinco they struck their home ball
lot, and have massacred the two East
ern teams that played hero thus far,
The Tigers may put a chock on tho
winning stride of the Herd, If their
pitchers work well.
George Browne has been ' making
many errors of late, but it was
through no fault of his, for he has a
bad band. He is suffering from what Is
known to hall players as stone bruise
on his left hand. Ho is In agony every
time ho catches the ball To make mat
ters worse, he caught cold In that
strong right whip' of his in Montreal
but he is hitting better every day, and
his Injuries are Improving.
George is one of tho most consistent
binglcrs on the team. Benny Meyer,
who has been on the bench because he
also had a bad hand, as the result of
being hit on the throwing hand by
Pitcher Dubuc at Montreal, is also on
tho road to recovery. Benny was in
such a bad way that ho could not close
Ids hand on the bnt. Bill Louden Is
carefully nursing his bad finger. When
Meyer gets back at second and Bill
Louden's hurts heal, the winning com
bination which went so well for a few
days'may bo set In motion again.
