WHITE SOX LOSE
TEMPER AND GAME

The soldiers won the game Saturday
from the Popular White Sox simply
because they could not help themselves.
They did not want to win apparently
as they made six errors, but the White
Sox were determined that the game
should not be credited to them and
started off in the beginning by max
: ing Fort Bliss present of two runs
without a hit. Three errors accom-
plished the deed.
The one and only trouble lay in the
fact that the bird of the air with the
white feathers that is supposed to be
a harbinger Of peace only remained
with some Of the White Sox players
few hours and after it had taken its
departure trouble started.
That is the story Of the game. The
whole team got mad and they did not
try to play neither did they want to
earn runs. and that they made six
runs throughout was simply due to
the fact that Matthews was not in
form.
On the soldiers side there was good
playing, Johnson at second, and Reed
in left getting the honors. The field
ing of Reed was the feature, the fast
fielder having six hard chances and
getting them all without a bobble
Johnson, a new man on the team,
covered second base in great style and
looks like a good addition for the Sol
diers
Fisher worked hard in the box. only
allowing four clean hits. The other
four registered against him would not
have appeared had his teammates

The greatest play ever made In
baseball was made by Charles w.
Murphy when he acquired the Chi
cago club.
But if you ask me the greatest play
ever made on the diamond. l believe 1t
was one that Hans Wagner made
against me when was a member of
the Brooklyn team. have seen lot
of plays that 1 considered great, but
never one TO equal that which the big
Dutchman pulled of, and it is hard
to understand even now how he man
aged to do 1t.
1 always have considered Wagner
the greatest ball player I ever saw
and have given him credit for doing,
more than any shortstop in the world,
with the possible exception of Her
man Long, but this play of which I'm
telling comes under the head of the
miracles.
1t happened on the old Pittsburg
park, down at the head of the Ohio
river We had been giving the Pirates
q hard fight, but in the ninth inning
they were leading US by a score Of 2
to 1. Lefty Leifeld, who is one of
the greatest left-handed pitchers l ever
betted against, was pitching, and he
was good. We had two men on bases,
and not soul out, when l came to
bat. knew the play was to bunt, but
Leifeld's fast ball was jumping so
far that it was next to impossible to
Dunt 1t. 1 asked permission to try
to poke the ball over the third base
man, and it was granted. l figured
that If Leifeld kept the bail fast,
high and inside the plate 1 might
draw Leach, who was playing third,
out of position and chop the ball
either past him or over his head. The
scheme worked out perfectly. ] let
one ball go over, biufing as If to
bunt Leifeld tried to keep the ball
inside, but pitched high and right over
the plate I had shortened up on the,
bat and just tapped the ball on the
line over third Leach was coming
forward at top speed, and although
he leaped the ball Acleared him, and
1t looked as If one run would score
and that We would at least tie the
game. Neither base runner thought
there was chance to catch the ball.
But Wagner evidently had been in
motion before the ball was pitched.
Possibly he anticipated what 1 was
trying to do, for as the ball was drop
ping to the ground, not moye than
ten feet back of third base. Wagner

lurched forward, stuck out one hand
and scooped the ball before 1t could
touch the dirt. His plunge caused
him to turn a somersault onto foul
ground, but he sat up quickly, and
still sitting, tossed the ball to sec
ond, completing the double play, and
the runner coming down from first
had to scramble to get back to the
bag to avert a triple play.
