 Since last the figures were tabulated, Trough has lost three straight games This has materially affected his record But those who have confidence in the young mans ability as a finger do not think for moment that his slump will bs permanent. Maxwell has pitched five games for Birmingham and has won them all but one. This season Maxwell has pitched about 15 games and has suffered but three defeats. He is well in the lead of all other pitchers of the league. Wag- ner has won two of the three games he is credited with having pitched. Tan nehill has won five out of nine, and Kent has broken even. The other Baron yic- tories were won by Sexton ?, F'leharty 6, Wilhelm and .Gilroy 1.
 In the figures which follow no ref erence is made to the work of Barons which was accomplished when they were members of other clubs, or to former Barons' work since they have left the local fold. The figures are of f1cial, and include all games played this season with the exception of that yes- terday in New Orleans:

 The crews met rough water between the mile and two-mile flags and both dropped the stroke to an even 30.

 Shouts were few and far between. owing to the runaway nature of the race until the Harvard crew was all most at the line Then cannon boombed whistles screeched, the crowds cheered and the Harvard oarsmen padded over the line as if they had been canoeing, while Coxswain Ables swung around in his seat for a first and distant view of the Yale shell. Yale athletic ex- perts shook their heads gloominIy and said that Yale was surprisingly in- ferior.
 Yale rowed the race out, althou uh the oars trailed in limp fingers.
 The only consolation that Yale ob- tained throughout the day was the freshman race. There the crews were so close for mile and a half of the two miles that only, those on the ref eree's boat could pick the leader.

Decatur, June 30.-(Specal.) 1.-The big leaguers have their eyes on McDuff and Cook of the Decatur club of the South eastern Baseball league. Scout Houston of the St. Louis Nationals is in the city and it is said that he has his eyes especi- ally on those two men and Is also watch ing others. He attended the game here yesterday and again today.
 The hitting of Cook and the general all round good work of McDuff has at tracted attention among the members of the big leagues and 1t seems more than likely that these two men be given a try out by the Nationals next year.

HARVARD'S HEAVY CREW HAS H.5
 EASY VICTORY OVER YALE
Big Race Won By Nineteen Lengths-Wnners After Very Start Were Never Challenged Harvard Substitute Four Also Wins But Yale Freshmen Save Old Ellis
 Honor-Harvard Holds Celebration

New London, June 30.-Harvard's effort to sweep the Thames today for the third consecutive year was not quite accomp- lished, for although the Crimson won the great varsity event in runaway style by 19 lengths and the substitute varsity fours by five lengths, the Yale fresh men captured the initial event. Harvard's giant varsity eight shook off the lighter Yale crew at the start and was never even challenged throughout the four miles. It was the fourth consecutive records that has not come to Cambridge for nearly half a century.
 The varsity race was rowed down. stream with favorable tide, but with a head breeze that made progress some- what slow.
 The morning races were rowed up- stream, also with the tide, but against a moderate wind and those times were slow as well. The official time for the three races:
 Varsity race, Harvard, 22 minutes A seconds; Yale, 23 minutes 4O1k seconds.
 Freshmen. Yale, Il minutes 53 seconds; Harvard Il minutes 591a seconds.
 Varsity fours, Harvard, 13 minutes 371a seconds; Yale, B minutes 52 seconds.
 The varsity race was witnessed by more than 25,O0o people on shore, on obser- vation trains and on the river in gaily decorated floating grandstand. Overhead hovered an aeroplane, while beneath stole a submarine, which escaped the vigilance of the marine policemen.
 Referee Meillleham waited half an hour after the scheduled time for the wind to subside, and then sent the varsity eights away from the moored points opposite Red Top at 5;30. Harvard caught the

New Orleans, June sO.-(Special. )-The Barons certainly struck a soft spot here this afternoon. They went up against "Chick" Frazer, the ex-major leaguei who has not yet been able to reduce to proper pitching proportions and whose re- turn to form this season is very doubtful Any time a team meets Frazer it Is not Frazer's fault that that team doesn't win. Sometimes, of course, the Pels hit one or their maddening strides at the bat and mop up even with Frazer in the box. "Chick" does his best though, and ex- cept in those innings in which he fails to locate the plate he pitches good ball and shows lot of the old stuff that he used to have.
 His bad inning today was the second, but even If he had gotten along well through that one the Barons would proo- ably have won, for they batted him timely in other innings, and opposed to them was very "strickly'' youngster named Kent, who held them to a minimum of two runs. That was good going for MT. Kent, for the dope book shows that the Pelicans have averaged about five runs per game this season. They are batting at the phenomenal average of 283, but then they don't face MT. Kent every day.
 The second inning opened and closed with Brother Bill McGilvray at the bat. Bill started it with a single, and then came a slam in the ribs for Johnston, a single by Yantz. pass to Ellam, a scratch hit by Kent a walk to Marcan, a sacrifice fly by Phelan and a walk to Molesworth. Five runs resulted. Chick found the plate all right in the third and fourth and 1t was not until the fifth that the Barons counted again McGilvray walked in this inning and scored on An geriniere's wild heave to second and J.. Johnston's hit.
 The Johnston family by the way, was very much in the limelight. for not only did Jimmie hit a two sacker in the seventh that scored a run for the Barons, but his big brother. Dock hit home run over the rightfield sfence that gave the Pelicans their first tally.
 The Barons last run was made by Roy Ellam on a very hefty swat that cleared the rightfield fence.
 The Pelicans are famous garrison fin ishers and the crowd was expecting something to happen along about the sixth and seventh When Dock slammed one over the wall In the seventh some fans thought the rally was coming. It did come In the next inning, but such a feeble one as compared to the usual. They managed to get six men to the plate. but one run was the best they could get out of 1t.

The Barons continue to hit the ball hard at a 252 clip.
 In the general average of the team the work of every individual is given-and among these are some who couldn't hit a barn door with a cannon.
 The ability to the sting the ball, whlch beyond a peradventure the Barons possess causes one to marvel in that 1t is remem- bered the outfielders, as whole, and as individuals, have proved disappolntments in the hitting line this season. Johnston' though he is hitting 252, has dlsappoint- ed. for 1t was believed that he would hit nearer the 300 mark. Molesworth, who hit 300 last season. Is swinging on to the poor average of .212, and Mcbride, who last season was really superb swatter, is not higher than .2S4.
 Elliott, however, is hitting better than last season. and the swatting of Yanz Is all that one could have expected Phelan is coming up to expectations with an average of .27o, and Is starring with his ability to run bases and score runs. McGilvray is not stealing as many bases as his record of last season gave fans cause to hope, but he is swatting at a splendid clip, and in spite of the prowess of those young phenomenons, Pratt Smith and Callahan, even bets can be ob- tained that Large" William of the reg ulars will lead the league in swatting.
 It is noticeable feature that Baron pitchers have done good work with the mallet this season. Kent is above the 400 mark, while Tannehill and F'leharty have Baron records above the 300 mark.
 McGilvray, Elliott, Phelan, Yantz, Johnston, Ellam and Barr have good ewatting records. Tn the number of hits McGHvray leads with 76 Phelan follows with S. Marcan has 5s, Yantz and Molesworth 5S. In reference to Moles- worth 1t is a noteworthy fact, while his hitting is far below par, he has scored a good many runs. got more hits than some of the other regulars and has stolen 10 bases.
 Phelan's Good Work
 Phean is far ahead in run-setting. His q tops McGilvrays and Marcan's 32, and Yantz's 90. Phelan has also run away with the base stealing record. He has rwiped 20 sacks. McGilvray follows with 14. Mcbride has B, and Johnston Il. In this regard, it might be stated that when reiativity is considered, Johnstons rec ord Is better than Phelans. Jimmie has been in fewer games and has stolen greater number per game than those who lead him.
 - -i-he all round work of Yantz is splen- did It is remembered that he played g good outield, very creditable short stop, and is now doing fine work behind the bat. And his hitting has been con
