team sit out in the sun, but they
finally provided for roofs.
They were after Finn pretty hard
in Syracuse and when the game was
a little tight they never failed TO tell
him. They sold beer, too, on the
grounds, and that didn't help.

was sitting big as life on the bench

disgusted rooter ducked under the

CLEVER SCHEME DEVISED

Reds Manager Would Criticize While
Critics Coach In Big League
Game.

Clarke Grifith has q new idea, and
it looms up as rich and jovial. The
Little Fox, sometime Jared by the
criticisms which have been freely
showered upon the Red coaching and
base running, is figuring on giving the
captious critics a chance TO show just
how much they know or don't know
about handling this portion of the
game.
Along in September. IL the standing
of the clubs should then be SO estab-
lished that a single game won't cut
any ice, Griff may put uniforms on
the critics, and allow them TO direct
the coaching OF base runners for one
afternoon. The Reds will be under
orders to obey, unquestioningly, any
from the new coaches and
great fun Is anticipated. Grin opines
that the critics coaching will result
in about nine double plays being pull
ed upon the base runners, but this
to be seen.
II such an affair could be arranged
Il would be crackerjack box-office
card, and would show the high-browed
writer's, once and for all, just how
hard IL is to run team upon the Held

GEO. MULLIN CLOSE TO
HIS RECORD FOR 1916

Is George Mullin slipping? You
hear the fans ask that question
dozen times daily Mullin seems 10
be holding up his end OF the battle.
even though he has fallen down in
few games lately.
For several seasons Mullin has been
the strong horse" of the Tigers. He
worked at least every fourth day.
During the season OF 1909 he took
part in 40 games. winning 20 and
losing s. He was taken out of two
and finished one His percentage or
victories was 1874.
This year, the season being a little
more than half over, he has won IL
and lost 6, making his percentage .6Si.
Figuring last years performance down
to a half season TO line up with the
1910 record he would have won IL and
lost at the present time. Therefore,
he Is one victory and two defeats be-.
hind the mark OF 1909.
The Tigers have been scoring 46
runs per game this year while they
got 4.22 last, making II easier for a
pitcher now than ever before. OF
course, that fact should be taken into
consideration In summing up Mullins
effectiveness TO date. There certainly
can be no fault found with him for he
Is ISL points ahead of his club.
The pitching blame seems to rest
chiefly with the other members OF the
squad Bill Donovan, in recent games,
has done well, but he came around
very slowly this season. Donoyan's,
efforts are even more than could be
expected reasonably from a man OF
his years. especially in view OF the
fact that he never was much more
than a once-a-week pitcher.
There is some hope for improve
ment in Willett, "a he pitched a grand
game Sunday and was not afraid TO
bend the third strike. Competent crit
les say that Willett has as much
stuff" as anyone when he possesses
control. and his Sunday performance
would warrant the assertion that he

CAN THIS MILLIONAIRE WHIP bUQLI JACK Johnson?
BY r. =. WILSON.

NEW YORK, July l9.--The man who
can lick Jack Johnson Is found.
The big town is swarming with fight
fans back from Reno, and they all

Warren Barbour, aged 22, son OF 4
millionaire, also amateur heavyweight
champion of the world.
Will ne fight the black man? Opin-
ions differ. Some people-society
fOlks-say no. Sporting men say that
Col. William Barbour, the multi-mil-
lionairo thread manufacturer, Is SO
proud OF his strong. hard-hitting boy,
that they wouldn't be surprised TO hear
him say TO Warren:
60 thou and smite this Philistine
hip and thigh"
YouIg Barbour is a giant and a nat
ural fighting machine. He stands 6
feet 2,S inches high in his bare feet
and weighs POS pounds in fighting
trim. He has reach of 70 inches and
barrel of chest 45 inches around
inflated and Al Debated.
He is a better physical specimen,
from the physical culturist's stand
point, than Johnson or Jeffrles either.

ciety. He had been putting various
members OF the Barbour family
through courses of sprouts when
young Warren Barbour. aged seveteen,
then weighing 235 pounds. went to
Princeton and applied for place on
the football team.
The captain liked his looks, but one
trial convinced him the young Titan
wouldn't do. He was soft as putty
and suffering from oyer-growth.
So his father took him from col
lege and gave him place in the Office
of the thread works, and his mothe-
put him into Jack Cooper's gymna-
stun. Cooper first rtook the stomach
off him" and then suggested he take
up boxing. One lesson was enough.
He was a natural fighter said
Cooper. 1T was just nature for him

end OF the first lesson"
He became what Cooper calls a
