right, but in a far different way 1t

was to see which one could make the
most errors. and before the festivities
ended they had marked up a total of
twelve glazing blunders.

If the Giants aren't in the race for
the balance of the season it will mean
loss of nearly 100000 in attendance
receipts to the league as a whole.
Play 1925 Games.
The Giants still have about 125
games to play; about IS of them at
home and 60 abroad. When the Giants
were in the pennant fight they averag-
ed a daily attendance of 5000 at all
home games. Some days during the
middle of the week the figure dropped
to the 5000 mark, but the Saturday
attendance, which averaged around 49,
900 generally brought the average up
to 5000, and some times beyond.

NEW YORK, May 1O.-Unless the
Giants jump into the pennant fight
soon-and stay in it--every club in
the National league stands to lose
from 100000 to $4,000 through poor
attendance at the Giant games dur

The Giants have been saviors of the
National league for ten years. They
have been the power that has kept
many clubs from bankruptcy in years
gone by. They've done their work no.

When speaking of that ball game at

that could be mentioned concerning
the attack of the Richmond team was
that it was simply rotten. Just what

which has not been threshed out but
the fact remains that if it were pos
pible for any team to show worse
game the locals would probably have
gone the limit.

them were dished up by tie Richmond

all this wild man stuff the visitors
we're able to count just six times with
the aid of but one hit. " was by far
the worst game that Richmond team
has put on for several years and it is
well that the boys got it out of their
system before the opening OF the
league season. The material Is there
and is bound to come thu Ough in the
near future.

HAFNER WINS FIRST
GAME FOR SEEDERS

With young Anthony Hafner going
better than was expected in his first
trial in the circuit. the Seeders annex
ed the game with Lon Stacks East
haven outfit, batting ouS their win in
the last half of the game, winning by
an S to 6 count.
Bill Black, left fielder OF the Seeders,
had big day, and his base running
was easily the feature Of the game.
Bill was up three, ringing up three
runs. and bingled two times, pulling
down the batting honors of the fray
with a 667 percentage. Hafner also
came in for his share of the glory,
when in the seventh inning after the
bases were clogged with opposing
runners, all on by virtue of errors. An
thony stuck to his knitting and retired
the next two men on strikes. This Wa
great showing for the younsster,
and now that he has gotten away good
there is no reason whatsoever why he
should not improve, and before the
end of the season make one OF the
best twirlers in the circuit.
