Immedlately there was a lOud roar
from the stands and hot criticism was
hurled at the Sox pilot.
Was it deserved? We do not think
so. Take the situation from different
angles. Lewis plays left for Boston
and Duff has one of the best and most
accurate arms in the business. He
was slightly out of position to throw
home, but recovered quickly. He had
a chance to get Demmitt.
But even had Demmitt scored by a
break in the luck, where would that
have placed the SoX? Still three runs
to the rear, with a man on second
and two out. Taking chance on
counting one run in that. situation
was no better than playing safe and
trying for two. And Shore, the Red
Sox twirler, appeared worried when
ever runners were on base. Possibly
Callahan figured all of these things.
There was really one reason DEM
mitt should have been sent home.
That was Bodie, who .batted next.
Bodie hasn't hit in the. pinch for quite
some period, and ran true. to form on
this occasion, boosting a fly to left.
Later, with no one on, he knocked
smashing single. .......
Reb Russell will be a good pitcher
again if he gets enough work to keep
in condition. The Texas southpaw
has been big all season. The service
he has seen has not been arduous
enough to pull off any of the extra
poundage he acquired during the
winter.
Reb pitched the early portion of
the next to last game in the Yankee
series. He had not been on the mound
for several days, and was a soft mark
for the New Workers. Yesterday he
went to the relief of Benz in the first
inning against the Red Sox, with just
four days rest.
And he pitched as good ball as he
ever did in his life. Four hits were
made off him, and two were exceed

all taking the count.
Russell did more work than any
pitcher in the American League last
season, and he was a sensation, being
among the first four in effectiveness.
This season he so far has done less
than half as much labor, and has been
no great puzzle to opposing batsmen.
As a matter of fact, Callahan has
so many pitchers that it is hard
matter to give all enough action for
their own good and the benefit of the
team. At least five of the beavers
have shown qualifications to entitle
them to regular assignments, and La
throp also is believed good enough to
battle the batters.
Ray Schalk's daring cost him an
other puncture. He was spiked at the
plate by Speaker in the first round
when Iris slid in on a single. A deep
cash was cut in the courageous little
backstop's right wrist, and he should
not be allowed to play for four or five
days.
But he'll be back tomorrow unless
Callahan puts him in irons and throws
him in the dungeon.
Red Sox won the game on Shores
pitching and hits by Speaker, Janvrin
and Gardner.
Fisk and LANCE of Tinker's Fed
pitching staff each turned in three-hit
games against Buffalo, but Fisk lost
because of errors and his own Wild
ness in the first inning. LANCE was
more fortunate, as his mates batted
hard enough to overcome the wild
streak he exhibited.
LANCE has the raw material of
which good pitchers are made, and
in due time should be a reliable work
man. Fisk, on the other hand, is ex-
tremely uncertain. He is liable to
go like a whirlwind for nine innings
or be chased before getting a man
out in the first

 TO SEE MESA GAME

The Phoenix Phan returned. He remarked on his arrival that Phoenix looks much as it used to do, but that it hadn't acquired that baseball pol ish that Chicago possesses. For, be it known. the Phan has been away in the east for all of month.
 The first thing the Phan did was to look up the Sport Editor and in- quire where the next baseball game was to be played.
 Mesa is going to play Phoenix over there. and Tempe is coming here to play the Red Sox at Grant park, tomorrow in the afternoon" re- piled he of the sport desk
 What's the fare to Mesa" in quired the Phoenix Phan. and the sport editor didn't know.

Now we are going to push on the dashboard and make ourselves just as light as feathers to help George Hageman win some of that fame for long distance gallon gas consumption Friday.

 Before the start, City Sealer of Weights and Measures Joseph P. Kehoe will place one of his care fully measured gallons of medium test gasoline in a small auxiliary tank to be fixed to one of the lamp brackets and connected with the car buretor. The start will be made Fri day morning from in front of The Republican office and the car will run around a roughly circular course of about thirty miles and return to it's starting point The speedometer will be checked with the mileage When the car gives a. tu- bercular wheeze and stops. it means that the end of that gallon of gas has been reached and it is time to 0at ont and get undpr

When MT Speed-Demon Baker told me how lack ing We were in appreciation I felt so dreadfully about it that he tactfully tried to shift the blame to the men who he said wouldn't hang together or work in harmony. I had only heard politicians spoken of in that manner and was surprised to hear that cyclists and other people were not always con- genial and held different viewpoints. This great .cyclist says the game needs working up here in Phoenix and since there's no school of cycling in Arizona, l suppose we'll all have to take course by mail.

 He is so magnificently sure of him. self that it is not at all surprising that he is never nervous in race. He doesn't carry a rabbits foot but he wouldn't tell about his good luck charm and for such nice young man I think his sentiment about this is selfish but he says Tt loses it's value if you tell If you've got anything good keep it," whatever it is, it is serving its purpose for he has never had a ''spilr' That means flop he said and then I thought I'd better not question him about the word because he may have been trying to avoid explanations.
 He has been in more races than any man. he says, over six hundred and won more than half of them. He's taken part in all the biggest events staged in America and Canada and these record and endurance contests have made him quite hero. When he takes long trips his motorcycle looks like flying suit case with it's labels of the different cities and when he stops, crowds con- gregate and cheer him. Oh it must be lovely to be lionized. And how grati- flying to the people who do the lioniz- ing for Mir. Speed-Demon Baker does not affect boredom like many of our celebrities but likes it in a delightfully."- modest way.
 Once he took a tremendously long trip. I've forgotten just where. but he had to cross the ocean. I asked him if he went on his motorcycle and he seemed quite disturbed for the moment but when he recovered he said mo" because his machine didn't have cork tires.

TEMPE LINE UP
Especial to The Republican, )

TEMPE. April 26.-With the strongest lineup of the season Abe Lukin Is today journeying to Phoe- nix with his baseball nine to take the Red Socks to the capitol city to a good clean trimming Abe is con- fident of victory and says it is only a matter of the score now, whether he will run it up big or let the Phoenix nine off easy.
 He is adding some new material to his line up that will make the public sit up and take notice. Their names he will announce later but it is enough that they can play ball and that some fast.
 Abe claims to have the best pitcher in the state in the person of Fred Kettle. Kettle can surely twirl the pill and has some smoke Lutin disagrees with The Republican in its article giving Harris of Globe credit as the best pitcher in Arizona. Harris struck out nineteen men and allowed only two hits, but Kettle went one better. He struck out nine teen men and allowed no hits during the entire game. Lukin says he will show the other teams of the league what it means to have a good twirl- CT in the line up.

sOLOR!|NJUN GAME WAS
 BUT 4 FUN COMPETITION
There Was Not So Much Baseball as Circus at Grant Park in Prac-
 tice Game Yesterday

A report from the south part of town said that there was a baseball game at Grant park yesterday. between the Indian School and the Senators. On the testimony of the baseball report CT, The Republican wishes to deny the rumor officially, without reserve There was, however, a pretty vaude- vile. in which tumbling. juggling, clowning, and other circus like stunts were pulled off.
 There were flashes of real baseball, especially while the Indians were ahead between the first and the fifth innings, and the Solons were pulling along trying to even it up. Short stop Brown made couple of really wonderful stops and throws, only to have some misguided, misplaced skull at the other end spoil a perfectly good put out. Yukku. the Indian third baseman, is a real ball player. In amateur ball. they do not field much better than he does.
 From a strictly baseball standpoint Barrett. the Phoenix pitcher. was rotten; really, he was only economi cal. He is to open the firing on the Jewels this afternoon at Mesa.
 Ares, the boy wonder of the In- dian School was good, but not steady enough. He will certainly develop, that young Brave. He already has the head, and only needs control and speed. His bends are snappy and square.
