TWENTY-ONE GUNS
IF IT IS A BOY
GREEK APPLIES TO INDIANAPo.
LIS OFFICIALS FOR PERMIT
TO SHOOT.

indianapolis, Ind, Aug. Ito pre-
pare to announce the expected arrival
of male heir. Pantelis L. Cafouros. a
Greek, appeared before the board Of
safety here and asked permission to
fire twenty-one guns, when his son ar
rived. The Greek was all smiles and
acted as If he had had advance infor-
nation on the sex of the package to
be delivered at his hcme soon by the
stork. Cafouros said he would not fire
the salute If the heir was a girl.
According to Custom.
The Greek explained that IL was a
custom in his country to announce the
first male arrival in the family with
the firing of twenty-one cannon. and
said he wished to do it in America,
but did not want to run the risk OF
getting into trouble.
The permission was granted, but Ca
touros' smile was frozen for an in
slant when one Of the members OF the
board wanted to bet the child would
be a girl. Cafouros was not "bluffed."
however, and, all smiles again, offered
to raise the safety member.

FOGEL'S KICK NOT Needed.
President Lynch Says He Threw II
Into Waste Basket.

Special Dispatch TO The Star
NEW YORK, July 1O-"No protest ha s
been received by me Of the game be-
tween Philadelphia and st. Louis Satur-
day." said President Lynch of the Ma
tional League. 1T is true that I have a
message from President Fogel, largely
made UP OF abuse, but ! don't pay any
attention to messages of that character
Mr.. Fogel has not deemed it necessary
to make protest In a. formal manner
and I do not deem 1t necessary to pay
attention to anything except a formal
protest
Mr.. Fogel saws that IL it had not been
for the umpires Philadelphia would have
won by the score Of IL to 1. think
that is all which 1t is necessary for me
to say. Amy one who will put his name
to statement Of that kind isn't likely
to make much Of case with base ball
rams or with base ball authorities"
The message has gone the way Of the
waste basket. where all similar messages
go President Lynch has received SINH
lar communications this season and has
treated them all alike. Fogers state
ments carry but little weight in this sec
ton of the United States. He is as Ike
~ to protest game which the Phillies
win as he is one which they lose. In
any event. President Lynch isn't going
over TO Philadelphia TO Investigate, and
IL he thought the charge worth any
thing he would be likely to start for
the Quaker city on the first train.
While the president of the National
League will not admit anything 1t is
pretty broadly stated on good authority
that the Phillies have not lost a ga ne
| this year in which Fosei has not sent
some sort of protest to National LEAGUE
| headquarters. One of his fellow mem
bers says he is the joke of the National
League circuit.

BASE BALL RECORDS

NEW YORK, July i0.-Heavy hitting Of
the early base ball season caused no end
of comment, and old records We're looked
up and published, but none of those print
ed to date appear 20 have been correct.
In looking over files back from 1880 the
subjoined figures appear to be interesting
at this time.
The record for runs scored is held by
the Chicago National League club, which
beat Louisville, 20 to . on June %. 1897.

The worlds total base batting record
is held by Cincinnati, and was made on

Pitcher Tithley of Pittsburg for "a runs

The Phillies hold the worlds record to-
number of hits in one game. Pitcher

and the Phillies secured SO hits off his
delivery. The game was played in 1894

Rumors Rife That There Has

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
DETROIT, July 1O-For several days
there have been rumors around the various
American League cities to the effect that
all was by no means harmonious in the
camp of the Philadelphia Athletics,
worlds champions and the Tigers lead

honors. That Eddie Collins is the storm
have heard the stories of duels in the
Mackmen's clubhouse. Both Tigers and
Nationals have heard the reports Some
Of them came from alleged witnesses of
the fights.
The main trouble. according to one of
the Washington players, is between Col
Inns and Barry. The latter has at last
rebelled against Collins rather overbear-
ing sway. condition which has been

finally broke loose and is said to have
whaled Collins until Harry Davis inter

Danny Murphy resented Davis interior
vention, according to the rumor, and he
and Davis mixed in what proved the most
disastrous affair of the card Murphy win
ming by such margin that Davis has
been out of the game ever since with q
rib alleged to be cracked
Whether all this is true or not Is really
open to debate. The ball players believe
it, and the fact that Mack and Collins
have been rooming at hotels other than
the one where the rest of the team is
quartered is one of the elements that
lend an appearance of truth to the ru-
mors.

Which Should Help Dooin's Team.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
PHILADELPHIA. July 1O.-Garry Herr
mann, who is III Atlantic City preparing
for the opening of the Elks' reunion to-
day. freed himself long enough from
lodge duties to close a deal with the
Phillies yesterday. President Fogel took
the Phillies to Atlantic City last night
to entertain them over Sunday. The boss
of the Eiks and Fogei met on the Board
walk and they quickly closed deal that
has been hanging fire for several weeks.
The Phillies get Beck, the big right
fielder. In exchange for Pitcher Bert
HUMPHREYS and Outfielder Wilson of the
Calgary club. The PhilIies need Beck
to brace their outfield during the alb
sence Of Titus and Walsh. Beck will
come here next Tuesday with the Gin
cinnati team and he will be placed in
right field.
There is dispute over the ownership
OF Wilson. After informing the Phillies
that it had sold him, the Calgary club

Work-Elberfeld Takes Punch at a

Moriarity. Henry was patient and got
his base on balls, nobly assisted by the
coachers. Johnson lifted a high intield fly
and Delehanty caught 1t. With two down
and no runs over. the crowd started to
leave. Washington did not appear to
have chance in the world.
Good night, .Schaef. old boy; too bad. .

Stick around, my boy, stick around.
and we'll show you how you fellows beat
other clubs yelled back Schaefer. And
he was right.
Milan did not attempt to connect and
got four wide ones. This filled the bases,
with the effervescent Mr.. Schaefer UP.
The prize comedian began kidding
Mitchell The left-hander shot one over
and Schaefer belted away. The ball was
driven to one side of Jones, a long single.
Mcbride and Henry scored.
Mitchell was taken from the box and
Willett substituted. The big Kansan had
little more control than Mitchell before
him.
Elberfeld was the man he wanted, but
the lighting demon didn't care about
hitting and let Willett pitch away. The
result was that Elberfeld walked and
the bases were full. Gessler always
feared here in pinch, upheld his local
reputation and drove a single to left.
Milan and Schaefer came home on this
hit. tying the score. Lelivelt kept UP
the good work and also drove single
to left. Elberfeld scoring the winning
run. Mcbride ended the inning by lift
ing fly to Cobb.
Detroit's center fielder did not have
the same strenuous day Sunday that he
had Saturday, but in the Sabbath matt
nee Mr.. Samuel Crawford furnished the
features. In four trips to the plate the
rightfielder slashed out four hits, includ-
ing a double and home run drive.
CraWford's double and two successive
inf1eld outs scored the first Tiger tally.
In the second inning Stanage doubled
and Mitchell walked. Jones hunted and
beat the throw. Bush hit to Johnson,
forcing Stanage at the plate. Cobb came
through with single, sending Mitchell
and Jones home and Bush to third. Cobb
died in an effort to stretch the hit. and
Crawford slashed single to left. send
ing Bush over
Cobb gave a good exhibition of base
running in the eighth. He had been
caught between bases in the first inning
after hitting single and tagged out. He
walked in the eighth and took big
lead. Johnson made several throws to
get him and failed. Cobb went half way
TO second and was caught. While Elber-
field and Schaefer were trying to run him
down Cobb made a squirt for first and
got there. sliding by Schaefer. Again
Johnson tried to get him off and failed.
Finally Johnson made a bad throw and
Cobb went all the way to third on it.
Crawford drove the ball over GesSler's
head for a home run and Detroit got two
tallies-her last two. The score:

MAY BAR COLLEGE ATHLETES.
A. A. U. to Take Action Against
Members Contesting Promiscuously.

Special Dispatch 10 The star.
NEW YORK, July 1O-Just what shall
be done with the college athletes who
compete during their vacation DAYS for
different athletic clubs is becoming a.
serious question in A. A. L. circles. and
it is possible that stringent rules may be
passed at the conference in September
One suggestion made by an official is tina,
college men be barred from COMPETING
for clubs during their enrolment as stu
dents; another rule which will be put
forward will allow all college athletes
who can show that they hold club mem
berships before entering college the right
to compete for their clubs at any time.
II believe that college athletes should
either be forced to compete for their
schools and not be given permission to
represent their clubs at all, or else We
should pass new rules allowing those VIII ,

Because of the many protests lodeel

tered by big clubs in the national cham
pionships at Pittsburg. and because OF
the troubles that followed. / will offer
some sort of new rule at the conference.
The question of whether or not a college
athlete shall be allowed to represent a

than ever before. and while he occasion
ally shows a flash of his former prowess
he is no longer a consistent performer.
But Johnson's slump Is most likely
temporary one. He is but tWenty-thres
years old. strong and sound. and has
never pitched enough to be worn out.
Some physical trouble is probably caus-
ing his comparatively poor work and in
due time he will regain his form and
pitch as well as ever, il not better. for
while he lacks his former speed he Is
forced to use more strategy than ever
before and this will stand him in good
stead when his speed returns.
