center which looked good for two
bases. Connolly, however. handled the
ball well and made a perfect throw to
MaranVille, covering second, and
Strunk was out trying to slide into the
bag.
Because of system of play in vogue
during the regular season. when Stall
lings was a great hand for having his
batters sacrifice. it was naturally ex-
pected that in the game yesterday he
would resort to that moving-up method
whenever any of his players got on the
bags with none out But it appears
that the system of Stallings is never to
do what is expected, and as a result no
effort was made by the Braves yester-
day to advance any runner with sac
rtfce. Instead, the next man up would
hit the ball hard. and, as a result, four
double plays were made by the Ath-
-letics. 1t does not follow, of course,
that Stallings will continue this sys-
tenn, but he undoubtedly has convinced
the Athletics that they can look for
anything from his charges.
Before the game Eddie Collins was
presented with the automobile by the
Chalmers trophy commission, and a
similar performance will take place in
Boston the opening day, when Evers
will be presented with a car.
Evers' value to the Braves is very
apparent. He has not only fielded and
hit well this year, but he is a great
man to steady the infield,. and he un-
doubtedly has had much part in de-
veloping Maranville into one of the
most sensational shortstops the game
has ever known.
Amos Strunk was the only one of the
Athletics who made a favorable i'm
preston against Rudolph. He got two
of the five hits made off the Boston
twirler. Neither Schang nor Lapp,
both of the Mack catchers, who are
supposed to be good hitters, could do
anything with Rudolph, who used as
fine an assortment of deliveries against
his opponents as any pitcher could ex-
pect to display.
There were several brilliant plays in
which the members of both teams fig
ured. Schmidt's throw to third in the
first inning, after catching Bakers foul
fly. whereby he nailed Murphy going
into third, was not only good play on
his part, but the ball was handled
mighty well by Deal, who on several
occasions during the game showed
himself to be a most likely fielder.
Jack Barry's catch of Moran's foul fly.
after a hard run. was deserving of all
the applause 1t got. Deal also probably
robbed McInnis of a base hit in the
ninth. when he made one-handed
grab of his high bounder, which SEEM
ed to be destined to go into the left
field.

Base ball may find some comfort in
the news from Canada that interest in
professional hockey has declined to
such an extent that players have been
notified they must take reductions in
salary for the coming season. Players
have been getting as high as $1,000 a
month, but the club owners have de-
cided on a salary limit of 5000 a month.
They have also offered a proposition
by which the players shall take IS per
cent of net receipts. Here's an idea for
base ball club owners, by the way
pay the players on a percentage basis.
What a hit that would make in the
minor leagues!

CUP TOURNEY
REACHES FINAL STAGE
Good Matches in Third Round,
Lotus and Kaufman Winning
Hard Contests.

The Siamese cup event of the Chevy
Chase Club will be brought to a close
today with the completion of the semi
final and final rounds. the third round
having been decided yesterday.
E. H. Lotus did the best work of the
day, winning two matches-one in both
the second and third rounds. In the
former he defeated r. w. Baker by 3
up and at thirty-six holes. The first
round ended with the match squared,
LOTUS evening it up at the home hole.
The second round started off like it,
too, would be a nip-and-tuck" affair,
but on the homeward trip Lotus was
much the better, the match ending on
the sixteenth hole, which he won,
making him 8 up.
In the next round he had little or no
trouble in disposing of Capt M. A An
derson, whom he defeated by 4-up-
and-3 score.
The others to reach the semi-nnais
were John A. McIlhenny, Rudolph
Kaufman and Capt. George w. Den
field. McIlhenny won from Capt. F. K.
Hill. in closely contested match, up.
The result was in doubt until the very
end, when McIlhenny by timely rally
won out.
Kaufman Defeats Favorite.
Rudolph Kaufman eliminated a
strong favorite for top honors when he
beat Walter C. Mendenha1l by 2 up and
/. Mendenhall has been improving
with every round he has played, and
yesterday many looked upon his
chances as being the best Of those still
in the event, but Kaufman was going
at top speed and deserved to win.
Capt. George W. Denfeld and Harry
Taylor furnished the other match, the
former winning, up and 2. Denfeld
was never down: neither was he ever
more than 2 up until the end. =
The event will close today, John A:
McIlhenny and Rudolph Kaufman and
Capt. George W.. Denfeld and e. n.
Lotus meeting in the semi-fnals, the
two winners to meet in the finals.
The summaries of yesterdays play
follow:

ground, thinking that he had quit

did not enjoy the situation.
