HARMONY AND GOOD FELLOWSHIP HAVE
KEPT NEWARK CLUB ON TOP OF LADDER

Inside baseball is not always SO
spectacular as the slashing. smuggling
attack, the timely pinch hit and the
home run wallop in the ninth after a
hard uphill fight. But the national
pastime of Uncle Sam has now
reached the degree of scientific per-
lection where the team that does not
use brains as we'll as Drawn is not in
the running.
Manager Harry Smith has been
particularly gifted with ball players
this season who possess what they
term in the vernacular baseball
brains" There is not a man in the
lineup who is not a quick thinker.
But with the brains goes another
and far more important ingredient
to the makeup of a championship
team-good humor. Manager Harry
Smith himself was always ready for
an innocent lark when he was a ball
player, and he has not changed an
iota since he assumed the generalship
of the Bengals. He is always ready to
lead the boys in a playful prank, par
ticularly when the team is on the
road. Like John McGraw and Frank
Chance, Smith believes that his team
should be like one big happy family.
The Tigers have gained a reputa
ton all over the league for their
pranks on the field. Up in Montreal,
recently, before the game, the Tigers
Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1913-07-07

gave a wild West show while the
Montreal fans and the Royal play
ers stood Still in their practise and
raved with delight. Harry Swacina
began by giving realistic imitation
of riding a broncho, using his bat for
the untamed and fiery steed. The
beast haunched his back, waved its
tail, snorted and blew fire out of its
eyes but Swats stuck on its back and
finally capered around with the ami
NAL CHS baD thoroughly cowed. Then
Billy Zimmerman and a quartet of
other Bengals improvised banjo and
other stringed instruments from their
biff-sticks and warbled gaily, accom-
panied by the "blinkety bang, bang,
bang" of the "glee club"
The Tigers do not pull this sort
of stuff home because the local fans
would be the first to rise on their
launches and declare there was too
much fooling on the team IL by chance
the Bengals happened to have an off
day following such an exhibition. 1t
is this sort of carefree and brotherly
spirit which promotes harmony the
manager Is always ready to encour-
age the boys in any harmless prank or
practical joke. Eddie Gagnier is par
ticularly witty, his little stunt of
changing hats with Mayor Jacob
Haussling on opening day being well
remembered by dyed-in- the wool
rooters who saw that game.

Skeeter pitchers have kept the Tigers

The Tigers got enough runs to win
the second contest. Four runs is q
pretty good mark for a game, but
Barger, with only two days rest, a
nasty wind to contend with and some
poor support, could not overcome the
handicap.
Harry Smith was afraid to take a
chance on AL Shack in order to save
Barger for today, giving Cy another
day of rest. which he needed. Barger
was willing to take the chance, and
stuck 1t out. There is no reason why
the Tigers should not rally and win
two out of the three remaining games
with Aitchison, Lee and Donnelly
ready to work in turn.

A temporary Generalization of the
Tiger pitching staff, irritated and aug
mented by sharp attack of hitting
by Jersey City stick wielders, is the
official diagnosis of the temporary
slackening In the Tigers speed
against Jersey City. Manager Harry
Smith went into the series with his
pitching staff somewhat upset, and he
knew it would be a hard proposition
to hold back the Shelters. Added to
the pitching trouble, there has been a
slight epidemic of "fumblititis" at
lacking the Tigers internal works.
There is no immediate danger of the
Bengals succumbing to the Shelters,
and the temporary slump need not
necessarily prove fatal to the Tigers
chances for the flag.
With Enzmann in the dry dock for
repairs, 1t was foregone conclusion
that the Tigers would have to be on
their mettle to win from the Shelters,
who have been hitting harder than

CARLO BOBS UP IN

Youngster Who Once Had Trial
With Tigers Is Back in

MONTREAL WANTS MULLIN

by the Montreal Club, and Is now in
the harness of the Royal brigade
Local fans will remember Carlo as
the youngster who had a brief trial
under Joe McGinnity with the Tigers
He is southpaw, and Is now in his
twentieth year. He pitched one game
for Newark, and was beaten to by
Buffalo. Toronto claimed Carlo, it
is said, but Montreal has his contract.
The Royals are also angling for
Pitcher George Mullin, of the Wash

of the Buffalo team, is also trying
hard to obtain the former Detroit
star recently traded to Washington.
Mullin has been getting his bumps,

1t would not be a big surprise If
Bill Donovan had Detroit hold him
up and delivered to Providence to
thwart his international League
rivals.
Swacina is back in his old stride.
He had a single. double, triple
and was responsible for three of the
five runs Newark made in the two
games.
McHale was in form, and allowed
only three bingles in the second game.
Just to show how hard the Bengals
work, the Shelters had q home run,
three singles and a Newark error, to
boot, in the fifth inning Saturday. and
got one run out of the mess off Dom

Three of the six games played in

1T WAS THE WIND

A stiff westerly wind which swept
diagonally across the field and took
some of the kinks out of George Bells
serving had a lot to do with the first
defeat suffered by Newark at the
hands of their Jersey City brethren,
. to l. McHale, who depended on his
splitter and his fast one, got away
much better than Bell with mis- curve
ball. The Shelters swatted Georges
offerings from the outset, and the
Newark gardeners were kept on the
Jump answering third alarms" for
hefty drives.
Newark's trio of suburban pa4Eol-
men had no less than ten putouts,
and the Bengal infielders mad only
five chances to handle in the way of
assists. The wind made 1t difficult
to judge Ey balls, but Bill Collins.

well, with a catch in the second in
ming of the first game that will go
down in history as the greatest ever
pulled by a Newark outfie1der. Col
line has done some remarkable work
of line drives since the Chicago Cubs
sent him here two seasons ago, but
never did he or any other outfielder
excel his one-hand running grab of a
drive from Vaughn in left centre. 1t
seemed that Collins had TO travel
thirty yards to nip the ball, and the
wind taking It away from HIM all the
time. How he managed to clutch the
pill is a mystery. Half OF the fans
, who saw the stunt don't know how 1t
was accomplished. Bill pulled two
other catches around the same time
that kept Bell out of the rut for the
time, but Shaw's homer gave them
the lead in the second inning.
Newark did not have a man on first
base until, with two out, Billy Zim-

with their usual skill the Tigers
turned that pass into a run that tied

SPILL MORE BEANS

After Newark had spilled Boston's
favorite dish in the first game there
was hope among the Tigers support
ers that Tige would recuperate and
stick in the old punch in the second
battle. Tige did have pretty hefty
wallop In this engagement after he
located Davis's flinging, but again the
Shelters took all sorts of liberties
with their sticks and earned enough
runs to make it a draw at least off
Barger. Cy's support was wobbly in
the third inning and the Jerseyites
gathered two runs they never should
have had. In fact they did not earn
a run until the seventh inning, though
three tallies had been hung up during
the interim by the Shelters.
In the first inning w. Zimmerman
fumbled knights single, giving the
runner an extra base. Jack crossed
the great divide on Perry's drive The
final figures were IA, whereas they
might have been much closer.
The Bengals did great work in
stretching seven hits into four runs,
which proves how they economical.
Berry and Shaw got on base through

to E. Zimmerman and then Wells
singled, scoring Perry and Shaw.
Swacina and e. Zimmerman made

sixth Barger singled, Dalton walked
and Gagnier forced Jack. A double
steal enabled Barger to score.
