 What happened after that was long succession of desperate wallops and long chances. But two bad CT TOTS marred the late innings, one a dropped ball permitting steal to second on the part of one of the Tempe runners and one a dropped fly in the Mesa outfield. These two made things looks like a home team victory, but hard luck made. it a home team funeral. Kelley Mouer made a wonderful one handed catch of a hot bounce that went many feet above his head and retired the hit ter at first. Tempe's eighth inning chance reads like this in the score: Spikes out, second to first; Mouer out third to first; Mutt out second to first Then Mesa came to bat with not hit, and Tempe went in for her last try. Olivier got on first by a bad throw: Mutt died on a well judged fly; Griffen was out at first and Oviedo famed. F'inis

CARR SPEEDERS
 DEFEAT WILSON
Fast Gainc Results When Team From Rural District Comes In to Meet Carr Auto company; Fremeau's Skids Feature

By q desperate ninth inning rally in which the score was tied, the Carr auto company team Iayed the foundation for q 10 to victory over the team of the Wilson district yesterday. When the manager of the Wilson team asked in The Republican office where he could get game, he was referred to Carr. And the above score shows that he got what he went after.
 It was hard fought game all through. The Speedkings were four runs to the bad when in the ninth they first faced Miller, the Wilson heaver. But they quickly stopped few of his best curves and reshaped them into bouncing bingles into the far and dis tant diamond The inning ended with the teams tied at nine each. Then in the first extra inning. the motorists held the Wilsonites down and scored one in the last half, winning as pretty an amateur game as you might wish to see.
 The contest was featured by the ter ribIe skidding of FTemeau. who neglect cd to put on tire chains and came to grief every time he got near enough the ground to hit it. The losers played g splendid game, and put lots of field found muscle into their hits and throws. But the autoists were too speedy in the last two sessions and ar rived ahead by one tally.

Grover Cleveland Alexander has started out this seascn in great style. At his present gait he should hang up q better record than his banner year, 1911. when he was called "Alexander the Great" Tn that year he won g and lost 13, while last season he won 19 and lost r games.
 It will take a real twirler to stick on the Philadelphia Nationals staff this year with such wealth of pitching material as Alexander. Moore, Seaton, Brennan, Chalmers, Rixey and young Mayer. This bunch of pitchers should keep Dooin's club in the fight all the way unless injuries, their usual jinx, puts the stars out of the game

Manager Tinker of the Reds is collecting as many as possible of his old team mates The latest one is Johnny KIing, whom he has finally persuaded to sign a contract. This gives him the old battery of Brown and KIing, which should have many good game left in it yet.
 King was obtained from the Bos- ton Nationals whom he managed last season. In exchange Tinker gave $4000 and Mcdonald. an infieIder. The Cincinnati team looks much bet ter with an experienced catcher like King in their ranks. although Clarke is a catcher of sterling worth, but not able to catch all the games or coach the young pitchers as well as KIing.

Rifle Matches.

 The United States national rifle as- sociation has completed arrangements for what will, in all probability, be the greatest international rifle and pistol tournament ever held. Teams have al ready been entered by Switzerland, Mexico, Chile, Sweden Cuba, Canada, France. Italy and the various states of the union for the matches to be held at Camp Perry, Ohio, August 15-3O. The amateur athletic union will send an athletic team to Australia in De cember and the Giants and White Sox plan to tour the world, playing exhi bition games between the 1913 and 1914 baseball seasons. The Maryland agri- cultural college football team will in wade Cuba during Christmas week for three games with Cuban college and amateur teams.
 In the national field, the University of California has sent ten of her best athletes east to compete in the inter collegiate games at Cambridge and the western conference meet a week later. The week of ath1tic carnival at Chicago this summer will attract teams from all parts of the country and possibly from abroad The University of Washington entered its eight cared varsity crew from Seattle to compete in the intercollegiate regatta at Poughkeepsie. What the next few months will develop in the way of fur ther competition not even a prophet would care to predict.
 College Sports.
 At this period of the year when col lege sport is at the height of it's wing. the varsity cOlors play no small part in the various meets. Almost every university combination of colors has some interesting history attached to it's adoption, and in this respect the red and blue of Pennsylvania is not the least. According to the University Re- corder, G. F. Nitzsche, red and blue came to be adopted as Pennsylvania colors in the following manner:
 In the summer of 1875 a track meet was held by the citizens of Saratoga in connection with the annual boat races. Pennsylvania had, up until this time, never entered intercollegiate track competition, but that year sent lone representative, H l.. Geyelin, TT, the present president of the Pennsylvania athletic association.
 Numbers were not attached to the competitors at that time, but instead the athletes ran under different colors Geyelin was asked what colors he was running under, and when he said that he had no co1ors, ne was told that he would have to select some. It hap pened that he was wearing a red and blue striped cap at that time, and so he selected those Coiors. This was the first time Red and Blue" was worn in public as colors of the university in an intercollegiate contest.
