LAJOIE NOW TO HIT
IN THE PINCHES ONLY

CHICAGO, June 2S.-Napoleon La
joie sat on the bench yesterday and
Manager Birmingham. of the Maps,
said the change would be permanent.
After a conference with Lajoie it was
decided that the great second base
man was to be used as a pinch hitter,
and that he also would have an adj
visory position with Birmingham.
The reason given for taking Lajoie
from the game was that he had failed
to recover from an accident he sus-
tanned while the New Yorks were
touring the West. Lajoie lodged to
keep from being hit in the head by
a pitched ball. The ball smashed
against both his hands, breaking the
little finger on the right and the
thumb of his left. The big French
man was out of service for weeks
The benching of Napoleon I.ajoie
removes from regular service one
of the oldest stars of baseball. He
has been slowed up by injuries which
kept him out of the game several
weeks after he had apparently
started on another successful season.
This is Lajoies' seventeenth sea-
son in major league baseball. From
1897 to 1901 he played in Philadel-
phia. Since then he has been with
Cleveland, part of time as manager.

has consented to cooperate with the
racing committee. of which George
Robertson is chairman, and he will be
active in the promotion of the first
meet.

FIND METHOD TO GET
AWAY FROM SUNDAY BALL

GIRARD, Kas., June 2s.-Girard
has found a happy solution of the
problem of Sunday baseball by setting
out one day in the week when every
body suspends business operations
and goes to the ball game.
This arrangement came through
the suggestion of the Rev. NJ. L. Nor
rison. pastor of the Presbyterian
Church, after considerable wrangling
early in the summer between people
who wanted ball games on Sunday
and those who did not.
The new arrangement was tried
yesterday for the second time. Every
one is pleased and the blue laws are
enforced.

lecture. From the standpoint of the
sport, it looks dubious, to say the
least Up to the present time it was
generally understood among the rid
ers at the Velodrome that Messrs.
Million and Chapman would conduct
the race. Now that it is known the
opposition has secured control of the
grind there is sure to be much
thought given the matter AS mat
tiers stand, the Velodrome has all the
star riders under contract for the
season and they would not be al
lowed to race elsewhere. After the
season is over another complexion
will be put on the situation, Then the
riders will be at liberty to forsake
the N. C. A. and join the new cycling
organization.
@
Between times, though, any number
of things can happen. The leading
pros may not care to forsake the n.
C. A. and thereby, unless some ar
is VIII lIlS HcW
cycling association. forfeit their
privilege of competing in Europe,
where several six-day full-distance
races are held every year, in which
big money is distributed among the
competitors. In the Paris six-day
race, for instance. the riders received
much more money than they ever did
in the New York race, and as Floyd
MacFarland, who is managing the
Philadelphia track for Million and
Chapman, has a contract to run the
Paris races, it is only natural that
he will employ only N. c. A riders.
There are still many angles to the
cycling controversy. The we'll is be-
coming deeper, but the fight is not
over by any means.

DEMPSEY NAMED AS
H. S.A.A. PRESIDENT
Will Succeed Hank GilbersOn as
Head of Barringer Ath-
letic Body.
OTHER OFFICERS SELECTED

Andrew Dempsey was elected presi-
dent of the Barringer High School
Athletic Association, to succeed Hank
Gilbertson, who was graduated Mon
day, at the annual meeting of the
association, held in the schoolrooms
yesterday morning. Dempsey has
been a member of the baseball. foot
ball and basketball teams, and is
also a manager of the hockey team.
Ronald Smith opposed Dempsey for
the president, and was later honored
with the office of vice-president.
Stanley Sutton was elected secre-
tary. The other successful candidates
were Ernest Dent, treasurer, and lie
Roy Korb and Robert De Pue as
New Jersey Interscholastic Associa-
ton delegates De Pue is the senior
delegate and Korb is his assistant.
Chester Scharrling was elected
manager of the 1914 baseball team,
while Carl Lehman will lead the
track squad, with Bud Noble as his
assistant.
A captain for the football squad for
next fall will take play on the re-
opening of school in September. Ray
Ward, who was to have captained
next seasons eleven. but who gradu-
ated this year, handed in his resigna-
ton to the association. Ward ac-
cepted the captaincy with the pro-
vision that, if he was graduated, he
would not return TO school next fall.
He intends to enter Rutgers College.
The only logical man for the position
at the present time is Dempsey 1t
is also rumored that William Grady
will return to school. in which case
he will probably be elected. as he ran
against Ward last winter.

YANKEE NOW LEFT
Fate SO Decreed That Williams
Should Draw Against the
Star Player.
DEFAULTS DURING MATCH

WIMBLEDON, England, June 2s.-
Maurice E. Mclaughlin stands alone
as an American contender for the all
England lawn tennis championship
singles. r. Norris Williams, Wallace
F. johnson and Craig Biddle, the
other Americans in the tournament,
were defeated here yesterday 1t was
the first break in the ranks of the
team that hopes to wrest the Davis
cup from its British Isles holding in
the subsequent International matches.
BY one of those chances of fate
Williams was drawn against his COM
patriot, Mclaughlin. and he defaulted
with the match at two sets to one
against him. The two took the court
late in the afternoon and worked
through three sets. 1t was obvious
from the first that Williams was only
affording Mclaughlin a practise CEN
tire. He gave the American champion
a lot of back court work, and provid-
ed him with rich fare in the way of
spectacular shots to test his alertness.
With Mclaughlin leading at 6-4,
Cd, 3-6 at the end of the third set,
Williams retired, as prearranged TO
all appearances.
johnson quickly followed on the de-
feated list To the surprise of some of
the players, he yielded his place to r.
Watson, of England, by a score of
2-6, SIS. 81, 10 Biddle went down
before W. Ingram, one of the younger
of the English players, at So. GO.
Is, 81. Ingram was a model of
steadiness, while the strokes of the
American lacked their usual power
The Americans suffered a further
reverse, this time in the doubles. in
which Craig Biddle and Harold H.

Davis cup team, were defeated by In
gram and Bentley, two Englishmen.

NEW YORK, June 2S.-George
Rodel, the Boer boxer, entertained

The occasion was an advertised box

quite enough in the third round.
There was no doubt about it. Three
times he went down for the count of
nine, and after the third fall Billy

down with an ease that told of long

won the medal in the qualifying round

play yesterday by Jacob A. Janin, of

Meanwhile Hamilton K. Kerr, of
South Shore, was successful against
Fred A. Blossom, the Wee Burn
youngster, only after the struggle had
gone an extra hole.
Early in the day Marston found it
necessary to go to the second extra
hole before defeating Chisholm Beach,
the New York Athletic Club cham
pion.
Marston played at Baltusrol in a
foursomes competition on Thursday
afternoon after winning the medal at
Fox Hills, and the difference in the
courses gave him trouble on the
greens. 1t was his driving that both
cred him against Beach, for at times
he resorted to the Travers method of
using iron from the tee.
In the afternoon, however, he did
well with his wooden clubs, but found
it necessary to take three puts on no
less than seven greens, and these
proved costly. 1t was a remarkable
round If for no other reason than that
not hole going out was halyed.
After Janin won the first they al
ternated in winning holes until the
turn, Janin being l up there. Mars

him the thirteenth and fourteenth.
