TIGERS BEAT SOX
BY EARLY START
Score Two Runs In First and
Let II Go At
That.

r CHICAGO, Sept. lathe Tigers
lost no time in getting runs on the
White Sox on the fair Sabbath, max
Ing two In the opening inning. After
that no Tiger crossed the plate. and
no more runs were required because
Of the excellence OF George Mullins
pitching.
Mullin kept the Chicagos to a couple
OF hits which were spread over two
portions. French got a single in the
first and persisted trying to make II
INTO a twobagger. In the second
Meleon got a single and that ended
the hitting for Chicago. The White
Sox threatened the plate in the sixth,
Zeider walked and stole. and when
O'Leary booted grounder. he dashed
for the plate. He was nipped.
The runs for Detroit came in the
first inning. Davy Jones walked.
O'Leary sacrificed. Mcintyre lifted a
high fly that Collins and Olmstead
both tried TO get Collins was laid
out by the collision but resumed play
Mcintyre being safe. Olmstead threw
badly to second to catch Jones OF the
bag, and he scored. Mcintyre taking
second. He scored on Sam Crawford :
triple.
1t looked like a parade with two
runs in. a man on third and only one
down, but Bush famed. and Moriarty
sent a fly to the outfield. The re
mainder Of the contest was just bal
same. with little or nothing to com
mend II save the excellent work OF
both pitchers.

BARNEY CARRIES
CROWN WITH HIM

Barney Oldfeld was crowned king
OF speed at Daytona, Florida. last
March. just after the veteran had sent
his 142 miles an hour Bitten" Benz
faster than anything save a bullet
ever travelled. Barney was crowned"
technically by the press and automo-
bile enthusiasts for winning the two
miles q minute speed king race, COW
ering the two miles In IS seconds, but
II was left to the enterprising and
enthusiastic sporting men OF Nevada
to press a real crown on Barney's bat
tle-scarred brow.
When Oldfleld was in San Francisco
last spring, the citizens of Reno want
ed him to bring his great car to their
city and give an exhibition Of his
skill and daring on the splendid one
mile track at the Nevada state fair
grounds. TEX" Richard. the impress
sario of the Jeffries-Joh nson fight,
was commissioned to secure Barney's
name to contract. In his enthusi-
asm, Richard promised Barney that
II he went to Reno, the people OF the
state would give him crown OF solid
gold emblematic Of the worlds speed
kingship.
TEX" made good on his promise
and as Barney pulled up in front OF
the stand after breaking the track
record by nine seconds for the mile,
the governor of Nevada and delega-
ton of leading citizens presented him
with the crown which was designed
In New York by q noted jeweler, and
made of four shades OF gold from
four Of Richards mines near Goidfeld.
The crown is worth $4,000. but Old
feld carries II about with him to show
his friends whenever anyone happens
to ask what sort OF fellow Richard

Freak plays help liven up the game
OF baseball. Many Of them are hui
morous TO a high degree II costly to
the other side. II the home CLUB
makes them, and they are fatal. the
Joke is not quite 80 apparent.
There were three freak plays In
recent game between the Cubs and
Dodgers In the first instance Mana
ger Chance OF the Cubs was given
hit when a schoolboy could have made
the out by simply staying on his feet
Chance hit to Tony Smith, who field
ed the ball In perfect fashion
Burch in the meantime was tearing
for first and became SO mixed up that
he fell fat on the ground. There
stood Tony Smith with the sphere In
his hands looking vainly for some
one to throw to, for he remembered
the cardinal principle of letting the
ball go as soon as you get II.
Burch more than got even little
later, however, by scoring the first
tally for the Dodgers. He had been
neatly trapped between second and
third and just as Zimmerman was
going to tap him on the shoulder
Burch lodged under his arm and slip
ped on to third. In SO cases out or
100 he would have been nailed.
Then Lennon came through with a
catch that Is seen perhaps in one
game OF 1000. He was all set for
Steinfeldt's fly. which seemed to hest
tate an instant before reaching him
and change It's course. Lennon stuck
out his bare hand and the ball hit
smack on the ends of his fingers. 1t
weighing 1t. The position was so per-
ilous that Barger dashed up and made
a grab for It, fearing that II would
drop to the ground before the out was
established.

AUTO PRIZE
BAD THING

II begins TO look as IL the national
baseball commission made mistake
in accepting the offer of an automo-
bile concern to award machine to
the player having the best batting
average in the major leagues during
the 1910 season.
The commission accepted the auto
in good faith. but pitchers and other
players, to say nothing of official

No ball player has ever been. given
better chance to establish himself
as worthy of holding regular POI
sition on a major league team than
Wade Killifer, and yet 1t seems that
he has been found wanting. In the
face OF his failure TO hit he has been
kept in the game day after day in the
hope that he would improve In this
respect, but the unofficial averages
which give him percentage OF ISL
give silent evidence that Killifer Is
still too weak with the bat to be OF
any material assistance.
In his effort to develop Killifer Nc

players on the bench who could have
filled the position more satisfactorily.
but McAleer wanted to give the
youngster fair chance, which he
has certainly done.
