The last game of amateur base ball FOR
the championship of the District will be
played this afternoon at American League
Park. Agriculture and Machnists are to
meet in the one contest to determine
which shall have the right to play the
club from Richmond for the southern title.
The contest will begin at 80 and 25
cents admission will be charged.
The matter Of today's game arises out
of protest made by the Machinists which
caused the cancellation of the contest
played Tuesday. While many of Agri-
terday that their team had been treated
unfairly and that it was being forced to
hinge it's chances on the result of one
contest after it had really won the cham
pionship, this is really far from being
the true condition. And something else
the management of the Agriculture nine
accepted the arrangement at a time when
he undoubtedly was mighty glad to do
SO and when it seemed that the arrange
ment would be in favor Of Agriculture.
Incidentally, the proposition was made by
Manager La Clair of the Machinists and
he should receive praise for an attitude
which, to say the least, showed Splen-
did spirit of craftsmanship and goodfel-
lowship.

day to cancel the previous days game.

remaining contests in order to attain
the championship. Despite this appar-
emily big advantage to his team. Man
ager La Clair walked over to President
and Manager Eidsness of Agriculture
and made this statement:
II don't want to win this champion
ship on protest b no mater =, ider hoy Just
team will win today. which, under the
circumstances. would make it neces-
sary for us to take only one of tho
two remaining contests, which we
we'll do-we'll play you the game to-
morrow and let that decide the cham
pionship, no matter what the result of
Manager La Clair said that to Presi-
dent ioung and Manager Eidsness of
Agriculture. when the score was in
favor of his team and had been in
favor of his team since the game start
ager Eidsness was glad enough to ac-
cept-any manager would have jumped
at such an offer. and it did not take
Eidsness very long to agree. AS 1t
turned out. of course, it would have
been better for Agriculture had it not,
but not one of the Farmers supporters
has any cause for complaint The pro-
test of the Machnists was justly de-
cided in their favor, and the PROPOSE
ton to let the result OF the series stand
on today's game was made and accept
ed at a time when it seemed to favor
Agriculture considerably.
The play on which the protest was
made was this: There were three men
on bases and the batter hit to center
field for single. The men on second
and third scored on the hit, which
placed the batter on first. Carroll pick
ed UP the ball in center field and threw

BY ]. ED GRILLo.

CHICAGO, August 26.-The Nationals
managed to even up with the White
Sox in the second game of the series
here yesterday, but it took fourteen in
nings of hard fighting before they
could get the long end of the 7-to-4
score.
Bert Gallia did all of the hard work,
but Walter johnson gets credit for the
victory, because Walter started the
rally himself that won the game after
he had relieved Bert in the thirteenth
round. Gallia was showing just a lit
tie sign of weakening and Grin did not
want to take any chances. The White
Sox used up four good pitchers in the
afternoons contest. Eddie Cicotte
started and was driven to cover in the
second inning in favor of Jim Scott.
Jim stuck to the job until the seventh,
when he was relieved by Red Faber.
Scott was touched up for two solid
swats in the sixth inning and Row
land decided that the presence of Fa-
Der was necessary in the next round.
Faber was doing all right and would
have been kept in the game to the end.
but he gave way to runner in the
tenth when it looked as il the Sox were
sure to win. Benz then finished the
game and was charged with the de-

not seem to be in any great danger OF

procession.
games played here with the White Sox
have had their money worth each day.
1t took three and quarter hours to
play the thirteen innings of the first
game. and there was thrill OF some
kind in every inning. Yesterday it took
more than two and half hours to
play the fourteen rounds that were
necessary to settle the contest. Twenty
seven innings for the price of two adj
missions is a bargain that appeals to
the fans.
The White Sox miss Schalk behind
the plate The pitchers yesterday were
out of their stride becaus the star lit
tie backstop wasn't there to steady
them. Daily is not a finished catcher
by any means, and his throwing is way
off form. Two bases were stolen on
him because he could not peg accurate
ly. 1t will not be long until Schalk Is
back in the game, however, His injury
is a badly bruised index finger on his
throwing hand. and he is unable to hold
the ball. He watched the game from
the top of the grandstand yesterday,
and tried to help his mates win by
pulling for them.
Joe jackson has not made good with the
IdnS even lHOuSH liS uii win q
game the other day in the eleventh IN
ming with a timely blow. Yesterday he
fumbled grounder that came right at
him and let Gandil take an extra base on
him in the second inning. 1t might have
been a different ending for the game If
he had played good ball. He made two
hits during the game. but only one of
them counted.
Shanks was charged with an error yes
terday, but it did not make any difference
in the run column. In the eighth inning,
with one man out and one on first, Eddie
Collins hit down to Shanks, and. after get
tig the ball on pretty play. Shanks
threw short to first and let Eddie get a
life and put John Collins on second. 1t
made no difference, though, for the two
Collins boys tried a double steal and
Shane was nailed at third by good
throw from Henry.
If Rowland can pick up a first baSeman
that will look as good as the new third
sacker that he has the White Sox should
be in shape to make real bid for the
pennant next year. With smuggling ar
ray that will be the envy of all of the
managers in the league, Rowland does
not need a great hitter for third or first
if he can only get men that can field we'll
enough.
The scouts are out combing the bushes
for first baseman, but SO far no good
news has been sent in from them.
