GALVESTON, Tex, March i3o.-With
the help of one OF the new Sand Crab
pitchers Cantillon's men pnt II all over the
sand Crabs again yesterday by the COM
forting score of IA to 2. Cantillon want
cd to use Walter johnson for the whole
game against Detroit at San Antonio this
afternoon and figured on Gray doing to-
morrow's work, and he didn't are to
have Groom pitch the full nine innings
Yesterday so he borrowed Pitcher Brad
ford from Manager Jack Warner and
used him in the first five innings. The
lad. who is slender, rangy fellow with
lots of speed. allowed the Sand Crabs two
runs and four hits i'm the five innings and
did decidedly creditable work. even though
he had the last Nationals working at their
best behind him. He was relieved at the
end Of the fifth inning by Bobby Groom,
who acquitted himself in excellent fash
ion and growing in great favor with Can
tillon and the rest of the tribe
Outside of the good pitching Chief Joe 8
men found no trouble to defeat the Sand
Crabs in this getaway game. They found
Brown for two runs In the beginning and
then landed on CARRIER good and hard for
a lot more i'm the next two rounds. AL
bert Johnson was nearly as easy and the
Nationals finished with wide margin IN
TALES to spare. They fielded well. bunch
ed hits nicely and played good ball gem
orally.
The Sand Grabs were changed so often
and around SO much they did not know
whether they were standing on their
Leads or their heels.

the fire engine house at Benning is lack
ing in modern equipment, chief of which
Is the absence of electric lights, both In

insufficient.

MONTGOMERY REPORTS.
Georgetown Veteran Twirler Out
Yesterday

Joe Montgomery, the heady little
twirler of Georgetown. and a veteran of
three years. was out in a suit yesterday
for diamond work for the first time THIS
season. Although he has said all along
that he intended playing this year, his
continued absence worried some of the
hilltop fans who knew his worth and ex-
ira pressure was brought on him to show
up AT once. which ne did.
Montgomery. in his freshman year. sur.
psised d whole lot of wise ones by not
only making good as a varsity man, but
b.. doing such excellent twirling that he
was soon dubbed as a find Although
d1minutive in size. he has a lot of good
hese ball sense, and his heady work has
more than once pulled him out of a bad
hole That all are glad to see him back
in the harness goes without saying for
his presence will strengthen the team
more than can be estimated
a new man showed up in the person of
McDermott. who played on the Long
Branch team for the past couple of sum-
1aers- He hats from Newark ana looks
Is or not time will tell. One thing is sure
however, and that is that lie has some
bells on him. for those seashore mines I'D
along the Atlantic are pretty fast. SO that
lac must have been there with the goods
il he held his position for two years
which he did.

PAPKE DEFEATED BY
- FIREMAN FLYNN
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
LOS ANGELES. Cal, March 2O.-Bill
Papke. once middleweight champion and
referred to with awe by the small boy
as the '.Thunderbolt," saw his hopes of
regaining premier honors swept aside
last night when Jim Flynn defeated him
handily in their ten-round bout at Nc
Carey's. If Papke had been willing to
stand off and box with the Fireman
he might have earned a decision. but he
continually tried to rough it with the
heavier man, and this could only end
disastrously.
Papke has gone back. His blows lacked
steam. and while his ability as a boxer
stood out brilliantly when compared to
'Flynn's he could not stop the rushes. and
was frequently pushed through or over
the ropes by his heavier opponent. Once
both men fell through the ropes and
from the platform. but were caught in
the arms OF spectators and neither was
injured.
Both men took severe punishment.
