Not a Flashy Club.
For this reputation the Athletics
carried over from last year and the
Red Sox own lack of dash and gla-
mour were about equally responsible.
Only few-who are almost always
sg'in the government anyhow-could
see the champions going down for
want of pitching of the sort Bender
and Coombs gave them last season.
Had the Red Sox flashed few SEN
sational spurts it would probably have
taken the fans less time to really ap-
preciate this club of StahPs.
There is nothing flashing about it's
play. They just go along playing tie
most consistent ball shown by any
club in either league, never reaching
the dazzling speed the Athletics have
displayed in streaks, but never show
Ing really poor form for more than a
Gay. or two at stretch. 1t is the only
Zig league club that has played along
the same level all season. 1t has yer
to fall into slump. -
A Boston sporting writer who has
been with the club most of the season
and ought to know what he is writing
about does not seem as enthusiastic
over the Boston pitching staff as other
Boston critics. He says:
The Red Sox are far from seien-
tific team, depending on their hitting
to pull them through, as Joe Wood is
the only cineh pitcher with the team.

but he is young. Ray Collins will have

witnessed here before on the occa.
sion of a boat race.
The 1912 regatta has been of spe-
cial importance and interest to Ho-
nolulu, not only because q crew from
California made the long journey to
Hawaii to try conclusions with the
local oarsmen, but also because with
the competition of an outside crew,
the Winning Of the race became of
more Importance. So
On. the Coast fpursoared barges are
rowed, and there are no races for the
skies used, there. Hence to win the
senior barge race here is to annex
the championship Of the Pacific ocean,
exclusive of Australia.
The rowing association has ambi-
tious plans, and hopes sometime to
bring a crew from the Antipodes here
to try conclusions and match styles
with Hawaii's speedy watermen.

OF ItOhGNt
II there were 1000 persons in the
Asahi theatre last night, 1913 1-3 think
that Referee Mike Paton's award OF
the main event 10 Bauersock was
strictly In accord with the rules. The
other 666 % spectators believe that
Eddie Madison was the victim OF one
% the most distressing mistakes
ever made In local ring. Just about
two our OF every three of those who
witnessed a round and a half of
4 what promised to be the mill of the
season take the Madison end OF the
controversy. aud tbink that Paton's
judgment was wronk OH of the one
lhird and two-thirds }i<ion respect.
lively there are very Few who think
on the one hand that q foul was de-
liberately made by Madison, and on
the other hand that Bauersock was
simply taking the hurt, and that Mad
fson was robbed.
The writer was not in position to
see the disputed blow struck, but he
took testimony from some fifty ring
siders afterwards, and found the two
TO one proportion to hold. Experienc-
ed fight fans who were sure they
saw the blow, held Numerically OBJ
posite opinions as to where Il landed,
but there were three or four who
came to the front with what may be
the real explanation of the unfor4
tunate affair.
Fouled himself?
These men say That they were
watching closely at the time and
were in the best possible position to
see every motion. They say that
Bauersock's arm dropped for q sec
end so that the heel of his own glove
was resting on his groin. At this
precise instant Madison drove q sharp
left which struck the soldier in fair
territory, but on the dropped arm,
forcing Bauersock to foul himself. He
doubled up and half turned. Madison

ribs, and putting him to the canvas

This may sound like q very far
fetched theory to account for the re-
suit; hut there are several web insi
formed and reliable fight critics Who'll
are ready to swear that iEwas Just
what, happened. AT any rate, the ex.
planatioh Is ingenious, and will dol
as well as any other to account for q j
matter on which there is no POSSIBLE
ity Of general agreement.
One fthine Is certain. and that Isl
that II there was foul committed. It'll
was purely unintentionai Madison
could not have put on the chagrlnl
and disgust chat he showed when he
realized that lac was the loser. Com
siderihg the circumstances, he held
himself pretty well together In the
ring, but In his own dressing room hei

II was a crying shame that the
fight should have come to so unsat-
isfactory and speedy an ending, for
1t opened with some fast work, and
looked as though 1t would be hum
mer from gong to gong. Madison en-
tered the ring to l favorite over
the Schofield scrapper, but before
the first round was pau 1t was ap.
parent that Bauersock was q better
man than the Madison hackers had
given him, credit for being. He out
weighed the San Franciscan, which
was expected, but the surprise was
In the fine defense with which he held
off Madison's rushes. The men start

work, which they varied by raining

started with wrestling match, and
1t was after one of the catch-as-
catch-can turns around the ring that
the rally which ended the fight came
off.
Two fights won on fouls and one
called no contest was the net result |
of the evening. However, this was
no fault of Manager Dillon, who had
a well turned card with which to |
make his debut into the promoting

The second prelim, a six-round af- |
fair between Kupa, the Hawaiian,
and Sophisticated scrapped whos
went under the name of just plain

1t is pointed out that no American
League club has won many games
from the Sox by base running, but it
is a fact that there is nc American
League club that combines speed with
hitting ability as the Giants do when
they are right. Just how such com.
bination might work against a team
with so highly developed a defense as
the Sox is one of the problems the
New York team has to deal with.

Leu Richie Seems Particular :.
Jinx Of The New York Giants

Most baseball pitchers in the ma.
jor league are known as a lynx" to
some one or two clubs. Nearly every
hurler has at least two teams which
he can defeat with ease and on which
he maintains his average for the sea
son. Some Fingers are decidedly
weak against certain clubs and par
ticularly effective against others. Elk
anples of it are given on the Chicago
pitching staff
Lew Richie, who was given 500 by
Manager Chance as gfft for defeat
ing the. New York Giants August II,
is one Individual who has teams he
can beat and teams he cannot beat.
He also has two teams he would
rather conquer than do anything else.
They are New York and Pittsburg. Up
to date the Giants ands Pirates both
have fallen before his prowess often
er than they have crushed him. The
Giants in particular have submitted
to Ritchie's lashings more than any
other crew in the league. ~
One would think that using the
same pitcher frequently against a
club hurts the teams chances of win
ming. Manager Chance, however, de-
clares that when twirler is effect
i've against one organization let that
nine have all of limit is possible to
give. That is why Richie opposes
McGraw's club so often. That Chance
is not mistaken in his theory is evil
dent from the record the knuckle
ball artist has made in battles with
the leaders. McGraw apparently is
of the same opinion, as he has been
