Though Detroit is making every
game pennaRt winner in the
American League, the struggle fol
second and third place is a very in
teresting one between Boston, Chi
cago, Philadelphia and New York
the aforementioned being in the hand
lest position at the moment, includ
ing the games played yesterday.
/ Boston has just commenced a Sc
ries against Cleveland, having
emerged from victorious series
against the Yankees, winning three
out of the four games, but as the
team is down to begin a series
against Detroit on the 18th it IS
probable that the winning vein will
be checked
Chicago and the Phillies are fight
ing it out neck and neck, but before
a fortnight is over it is probable that
the Phillies will have given way TO
Chicago. The two teams clash on
the 14th at Chicago and play a Sc
ries of four games, after which the
Phillies will go up against the
match-winning Detroits.
New York has done rather poorly
of late, dropping from .5S3 on the
I'd inst. to AIT, losing three games
in succession to Boston.
The victories of Detroit, Chicago
and Cleveland are responsible for st.
Louis being in the cellar, but after
getting through with the series now
on with Philadelphia st. Louis will
tackle Washington, New York and
Boston.
The table below has been compiled
from cable reports, supplemented by
the results in the files, it being nee
essary to make a correction or two.
For instance, a couple Of days ago
the cable informed us that Cleveland
had beaten Detroit, 81, when as
matter of fact Detroit had taken the
game, 14-5. Detroit has only sus-
tanned two defeats to date, one
against Chicago, %, and one against
10.

THE VATICAN OBSERVATORY.


The Vatican Observatory came in
to existence shortly before 1882
when Pope Gregory XIII succeeded
in amending the calendar. The coun-
Gil of Nice in A. D. 1926 had assign
ed March 2 as the date when the
sun entered the sign of Aries, but as
Alfred Parr points out, the day was
not really fixed one, and by Greg
ory's time the accumulated error,
which amounted to ten days, serious
ly affected the date of Easter. The
really active phase of the observa-
tory's work began after the Jubilee
OF Pope Leo XIII in 1888, when
scientific exhibition was held, and
among the presents received by the
Vatican were a number of meteor
illogical and astronomical instru-
ments. The latter are now housed in
domes built on the massive turrets
forming part of the Notifications

YOUNG O'DOWDA
COMING CHAMPION

Though young John O'Dowda fail
ed against S. A. Baldwin in the Cas-
tie Cup tennis tournament the class
of play put up by this lad is worthy
Of little short of the highest praise.
To the general reader, little is con-
veyed by the report that Young
C'Dowda was beaten by S. A. Bald
win, or that he won his games against
Bains and WALL
Until the beginning of this year
O'Dowda was unknown as q tourna-
ment player. He is only fourteen
years of age, son of J. P. O'Dowda,
the sugar boiler at Eva, and is now
student at st. Louis College. He
learned his tennis at Eva, and learn
ed it well, but unfortunately he does
not get very much practise just at
present. He has the markings of a
fine player and is to be complimented
on the pluck he displayed in enter
ing the Castle Cup and the e. o. Hall
Cup competitions.
In the E. o. Hall competition,
ODowda made his debut in tourna-
ment tennis but he had the misfor-
tune to meet AL Castle, the singles
champion and ultimate winner of the
tournament, in the first round, and
IN consequence he did not get
chance of a crack at the other men.
In the Castle Cup he met Bains in
the first round, winning 6-1, 81,
though giving Bains fifteen start; in
the second round he met w. A. Wall
On level terms and won out 6-3, 3-6,
CO; but in the third round he met
defeat at the hands of S. A. Baldwin
after a gruelling contest which end
ed IS, 81, 6-1 in favor of the
elder player.
1t is record of which any lad
might well be proud and it should
act as an incentive to O'Dowda to
keep up his tennis and also should
awaken the spirit of emulation in
other juvenile players.
O'Dowda has done the right thing
liz getting into the tournament game
early and trying conclusions with all
manner of players. That he is shap-
ing like a coming champion few will
deny who have seen the lad play.
He serves well, accurately if not
deadly, and returns most any ball
that happens along What he needs
is experience and he is in a fair
way to get that if he keep on enter
ing the open tournaments. The Cas-
tie Cup competition gave O'Dowda a
chance to show that he could do bet
ter than he did against AL Castle and
many regret that the youngster met
defeat at the hands of Baldwin,
though Baldwin's success was we'll
merited. However, it was the fortune
of the game and though beaten, John
C'Dowda can rest assured that his
play was greatly appreciated.
In a season or two ODowda will
be stacking up against Willie Eklund,
Atherton Richards and others of the
rising juniors, and doing we'll against
them.

EngIishmen Want Baseball
Charles C. Sphinx of St. Louis
sailed for England on May 3 to Or
ganize baseball league for the Brit
ons, having been invited abroad to
establish a six-cIub league for the
subjects of King George.
It is said that there are enough
Americans in England to support a
small league. A few teams have al
ready been formed, but there is no
organization and consequently base
ball has not been a success there.
Sphinx will take a good look at the
situation, and if the prospects are at
all encouraging he hopes to establish
a siX-club league and recruit a big
bunch of his players from America.
