Mr.. Cecil Harris spent Monday
night with his COUSIN Asbury

Precocity in children should not

To judge without prejudice, to

I
at any time this season. Rudolph has
been good at times, but the Cubs
treated him as though he was an or
binary person yesterday, and Dick
didn't seem to have any reserve stuff
to rally with. -
Today the Braves are only three
games behind the Phils and Cubs. |
That is a small handicap to a team
which cut down such a lead as con-
fronted the Stallings people last sea-
son, but that miracle is not likely to
be repeated.
The National league is playing
more evenly balanced baseball, and
at least two teams in the legue are
playing more determined ball than
last season. That means a more diff
fcult task for the Braves. Cubs and
Cardinals are showing a revival of
spirit. Bresnahan and Higgins have
their people working diligently and
they will not be passed without a bit
ter fight.
StaIIings will find that he hasn't
the only ball team in the league that
is willing and capable of battling
against odds and not quitting when
the going gets rough.
The Braves got the habit yesterday
and struck. Lavender famed seven
of them in eight innings. He was
pitching because Jim Vaughn was
hammered from the mound in one
inning. Lavender was not scored on
and allowed three hits
Joe Tinker's Whales are home to-
day from disastrous visit to Kansas
City. Tonight they leave for Buffalo,
starting their second invasion of the
east.
Hard luck seems to trail the
Whales. If an error is made it is
costly one, and the pitchers. if they
ease off a trif1e, find it difficult to re-
gain their strikes. This was empha-
sized yesterday in the first game at
Kay See, which should have been a
l. so4
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1915-06-14


Hanford, with an easy double play
before him, muffed a fly ball and four
runs counted as a result of the mis-
cue.
The Whales lit heartily on the
pitching opposed to them, something
they have not been doing recently.
This slump has been more protracted
than such affairs are wont to be, but
Tinker seems to have kept up the
spirits of his men and they are not
playing listlessly.
Joe's biggest task is to keep his
men cheerful and hustling until luck
begins to break better. Then they
can go out and fight again for the
lead.
The second game was victory on
some good pitching by Mcconnell
and Flack's fine fielding.
AL WickIand, outfieIder, has been
sold by the Whales to Pittsburgh.
The story that the White Sox have
been stealing signals is causing high
jinks in the American league. Ty
Cobb is reported to have started it in
OH0 VI LIS SISuSu SCOIlSS- WLICu u0
may have written-and Ban Johnson
is said to have declared he would
discipline Ty if the charge wasn't
proven. 1t is good advertising for the
Sox and will also make Ty's stories
sell better Ban won't do anything.
If the Sox batted we'll only on the
South Side there might be some
ground for the charge, but their hard
est hitting was done at the Polo
Ground in New York against the
Yanks. And if they we're getting sig
mails then they were doing so with
out any mechanical devices, and it
has always been considered legit-
innate proposition to discover what
the other fellows were going to do if
no unfair means are employed.

'AsEBALL- SPORTS OF ALL KINDS BOXING

There were a good many COM
ments last season to the effect that
Joe Wood of the Red Sox and Walter
Johnson of Washington had lost
their effectiveness as pitchers. Just
how far off these comments were can
be learned from the records of the
American league hurlers, the official
figures being now available.
Wood in 1877 innings allowed an
earned run average of LAG per game.
But Johnson was the real leader, as
he performed in 1856 innings, more
work than any other pitcher did, and
allowed 1.55 earned runs every nine
innings. Shore of the Red Sox was
third, 1.64 runs being counted off him
every nine innings of the 247 he
worked.
Mel WoIfgang, No. 5, was the first
Sox pitcher. He did but SO innings
of toll, but allowed only II earned
runs in that time. Mel was used
mainly as a finisher, his task being
especially difficult, as the opposing
teams were usually in a hitting mood
when he went to work. That makes
his record especially good. Some
time the midget will get real chance
and he will show the goods.
Jim Scott was the most effective
of the regular Sox hurlers, standing
sixth on the general list. He allow
ed 203 earned runs per game. The
other Sock men finished as follows:
Benz, PIP; Faber, 2.56; Russell, $50,
and Cicotte, 1902. Wyckoff of the
Macks was the leagues wild man,
passing 165, eight more than Low
dermilk of Detroit and st. Louis.
Johnson's 209 was the highest strike
out total.

tween Kid Williams and frankie
Burns in New Orleans last night
draw. The crowd, which was largely
tinged with Burns feeling, was so
sure the New Jersey man was
whipped that in the 18th round some
of the bettors began to pay off their
wagers.
Williams and his manager, how
ever, found little fault with the YER
dict, which makes it sound like the
correct one. ...
In the first few rounds the chaI-
lenger gave the bantam champion
sweet lacing and had him breaking
ground continually. But in the ninth
the tide began to turn and from then
to the finish it was all Williams, ex-
cept for flashes in two rounds by the
New Jersey boy.
1t was better work on the part of
Williams than was looked for. He
, was aggressive for the last II rounds
and showed no signs of firing I'M
der the terrific pace that was set.
The men may be rematched for a
New Years day bout.
While these two men were milling
there was rumble away off in Phil
adelphia, JOHNNY Ertle, the st. Paul
flash, putting Young Diggins to the
canvas for keeps in As second. Err
tie disputes Williams claim to the
title and wants a 20-round fight to
settle the question of superiority.
Conference colleges, with two ex-
ceptions, are preparing to fight the
ban on baseball as a major sport.
There will be more than enough SEN
timent to demand reconsideration of
the rule just passed and the game is
safe for another year at least.

Ranjab, the Hindu, was crossing the
room toward the small door which
gave entrance to his closet. He paused
for an instant before the image Of
Buddha. but did not drop to his knees
as all devout Buddhists do. Mrs.
Brood's hand fell lightly upon Lydia's
arm. The man turned toward them a
second Or two later. His dark, hand
some face was hard set and emotion
less as he bowed low to the new mis-
tress of the house. The fingers closed
tightly on Lydia's arm. Then he
smiled upon the girl, a glad smile of
devotion. His swarthy face was trans
figured. A moment later he unlocked
his door and passed into the other
room. The key turned in the lock
with a slight rasp.
Il do not like that man." said Mrs.
Brood. Her voice was low and her
eyes were fixed steadily On the closed
door.
