Philadelphia club was paid more for its
share here than Washington secured in
Philadelphia the following day when a
double-header was played before a crowd
of over 10000 people. There are COM
paratively few twenty-five cent seats in
the local Enclosure, and this fact makes
a big difference in the receipts compared
with cities where a majority Of the crowds

of q winning team in q most substantial

Philadelphia critics are at loss to ex-

be leading both Boston and Washington.

MAJOR LEAGUE CLUBS ARE
BIDDING FOR RAY SCEIALK
Manager Duffy Of Milwaukee Says He Is
Far and Away the Best Young
Catcher in the Country.

MILWAUKEE Wis. July 15.-"The
best catcher in the country" is Hugh
Duny's estimate Of Ray Schalk, the SEN
sational Milwaukee backstop for whom
every major league club In the country
is bidding. To date the White Sox have
an edge on the others. and it Is reported
that Comiskey has offered no less than
$4,000 and two players for the crack
youngster. Pittsburgh. Detroit. Cleve-
land, both New York clubs. Cincinnati
and Philadelphia are also angling for the
youth. who is only twenty years old. and
1t would not be surprising If the record
price paid for O'Toole would be duplicated
in this instance.
Schalk came to the Milwaukee club q
year ago from the Taylorsville team in
the illinois, Missouri League. the Brewer
management paying $1OO for his release.
He can hit, has an excellent whip is fast
on his feet and. best Of ALL uses excellent
judgment in handling his pitchers. Duffy

There are no stars on it. because the
players who are making good have
not been in the league long enough to
establish regulations. There Is no get
ting away from the fact that barring
Boston, no team has done better than
Washington.
Dan Moeller makes an ideal lead OF
man. He not only is good waiter.
but he hits the ball hard. can bunt and
beat 1t out, and is always sure to go
from first to third on any kind Of a
hit which allows the play. OF all the
young outfielders who broke into fast
company this year Moeller looks by
far the best. He has played consist

and holds a place among the 300 hit

or to be running third in such q race
as the American League is making this
year. but that is the aggravating part OF
1t. Taking the teams. man for man, and
making allowances for everything In the
way OF accidents, the Athletics should
be leading Boston and Washington, not
trailing them. and would IL from the be-
ginning Of the season they had brought
win out only by the stiffest kind of a
stin uphill fight. but one which they
are capable OF making ii they put them
selves right down to the task.
Bender showed enough on Friday to
warrant the belief that he has finally
rounded into form. He can't be expected
to win every game in which he offlciates.
but there is no reason why he should not
be able to duplicate the figures which
enabled him to lead the pitchers last
season. Plank and Coombs are bound TO
maintain their percentage of wins with
any kind of the support which they have
a right to look for from worlds cham
pions. and both Brown and Houck. while
not yet the finished articles they will be

There is no reason for believing that Nc
Graw's crack southpaw has gone back
simply because he has failed to keep up
his winning streak. Luck Is not with him
just now, which accounts for the defeats
which are chalked up against him. A
pitcher to win SO many games in row
must have luck as well as ability.
America is in woeful need of boxing
regulation, after the manner Of the
French system. only more so. In France
the weights. duration of bouts, accred-
tied champions in various classes and
terms under which contests shall be held
are all governed or determined by law
or commission. The game has fostered
under the system.
The United States needs a national box
ing commission and its first rule ought
to be:
mo champion can retain a title with

the date he won 1t. Furthermore. he
must defend his title at least twice an
nually as long as he retains it,
AS 1t stands now, Johnson has held the
title two years and has never made a
move to accept a real contest. All he's
looking for is the easy money and the
easy marks. In two years he has fought
one fight that was in" before 1t ever
began.
Langford. Jeanette and Mcvey have
begged the big fellow for a chance at the
title, but Johnson sits back. reaps all re-
ward and glory and ignores them.
That he is afraid TO fight those OF his
own strength and skill is evident from his
refusal OF several good offers. There is
S75. 900 in sight for Johnson. win, lose or
draw, to fight the three colored scrappers
named.
But not for Jack. He wants the title
glamour as long as he can keep II and
there's nothing in American conditions to
force him to fight. A boxing commission
could soon settle his case.

he has run quite extensively. winning

mile championship at Bayonne recently.
He finished second to Louis Scott in a
modified marathon in New York a few
months ago.
Like most members Of the South Pater-

Of the shops OF Paterson. being employed
by the Sipp Machine Company. This COM
pany has always taken an interest in the
boy and he has been accorded many cour-
tesies in the matter Of taking part in his
races. Strobino was born in Switzerland
of French parents. He was brought to
America when eight years Old.
His parents were delighted with his
prowess and Mrs. Strobino said she knew
that her son would figure in the classic
event because he said before he went
away. Mother. I'll finish one, two. three
or break a Leg
Strobino was known here to have the
stamina that would carry him to the end
of the marathon and Patersonians believ-
ed in him to such an extent that the lad
was sent to Sweden by a public benefit
and subscription in which Jim Kimlock,
the trainer Of Scott and Stroblno. shared.
Mayor Mcbride and other prominent citi-
zens were instrumental in making the
benefit and subscription a success.
