WARHOP HELPS TANKS BACK ID
 FIRST DIVISION

New York, July First division so< ciety certainly appeals to the Yankees. If they fall away from the select crowd for @, day or so they get a hank ering to get back. When the banker came along again yesterday they just went up and at the Washington Sen ators at the Polo Grounds, and by req son of their to 1 victory landed once more in the first division.
 Shaw and Hopper pitched against little Jack Warhop, but the pair of them couldn't best the dininutive Yankee twirler. Donovan's men punched their hits of Shaw, who was on duty for six innings, and while they didn't score on Hopper it wasn' t necessary. .Warhop- kept the Senator's hits scattered and was never in dan ger.
 While Warhop was holding the vis- ttors in check Pipp and Hartzel were conspiring to drive Shaw from the mound. In the third inning Pipp drove dn a pair of runs with a double, and in the sixth HartzeH sent Shaw to the clu b11ouse when his home run scored another player ahead of him.
 Hopper pitched for New Haven sew erad years ago.

PEPPER PUZZLES
 GIANTS AND GIVES
 STRING OF CHEERS

New York, July 1-The Giants visit to Brooklyn yesterday was painful, but brief. It was just like going to the dentist to get a. jumping tooth drawn, something awful while it was being done, but it was over quickly. It was one of the quickest games Of the season. Brooklyn got seven runs and the Giants got hooted by the crowd. The crowd at Ebbets Field was small, but in splendid voice. and remarkably frank and outsp oken about what they thought of the Giants.
 All that these Dodgers would have to do to win the pennant and then the World Series would be to play as they did yesterday and let big Ed Pfeffer pitch all the games.
 Pfeffer gave the Giants two hits. snodgrass, the first man up in the first aiming, got a scratch single and Eddie Grant, the first man up in the ninth inning, got a single. The in tervening innings were as barren Of hits as Sahara is of grass.
 For seven innings Rube MarQuarc pitched almost as well as Pfeffer, but in the eighth inning the Dodgers land ed on him as gently as 9 safe falling. fro ma tenth story window. Hits splashed from the Brooklyn bats like fiery sparks from a, Roman candle. Rube went from the sublime to the ridiculous The promising pitching battle became a joke, with Brooklyn doing all the laughing.

NEWARK CLUB
 GETS SWITCHED
 TO HARRISBURG

New York, July After a meet ing of the International League at the Hotel Belmont yesterday President Edward G. Barrow announced that it had been decided to transfer the franchise of the Newark Club to liar risburg for the remainder of the sea son. He said a. good offer had been received from W. R. Douglass, who represented a number of the prom inent busip ess men of that city. The club will play the first game on the Harrisburg grounds with Jersey City tomorrow.
 No plans have been made concern ing the location of the club for next year, that probably hinging on the showing that is made in Harrisburg. That city is at present without a. baseball team, but was formerly in the circuit of the Tri-State League, which is not playing this season.
 President Barrow denied that there was any truth in the report that the International League would discon- tinue after July 4. The question of finances, he said, was not even brought before the meeting.

The Colonial league attem pted to transfer the Taunton, Mass, club to this city but was thrown down hard when an effort was made to get New field park. Last Monday Secretary Al Bannwart of the Colonial league had conference at the Stratfield with Secretary Reddy of the Bridge port club. He made Reddy a liberal offer for the park but the local off cials refused to consider the proposi- tion.
 Bannwart said the Colonfals would not use the park on Sundays He offered to let Reddy have the field for Sunday games with major league clubs but Reddy remarked that he would have a fine chance of bringing his park to the outlaws on week days. Well, you can bring Federal league teams here for Sunday games, '' offered Bannwart. This didn't ap- peal to Reddy, either.
 Bannwart later had talk with President O'Rourke of the Eastern association but didn't receive any en- couragement It is said that Faun- ton is drawing about 50 people at home. There is a chance that the club may be transferred to New Brt- tain, since Bridgeport is out of the
 Now that Newark has been trans ferred to Harrisburg, Pa, local fans won't see any league games this sea- son.

Stegner and Champion, the crack fingers of the Singer Go. team, will divide the pitching for the locals. Connie Mack has guaranteed that Nap Lajoie, Stuff fly McInnis and Jack Barry will be in the Athletics lineup.

Some have figured that a change in ownership might help the situation in Philadelphia but when you consider the wonder full record Mack has made it is hard to think of anybody who can make the game a success in the Quaker City if Mack cannot.
 Lefty High continues to play good ball for the New Y York Americans. The old Hartford star be1ted two hits against Shaw of Washington yester- day. He has been hitting at a. .328 clip since June 10 and brought his seasons eaverage from POS to .254.

Dick Tuckey, the old Bridgeport favorite, is doing well with Fftcf1burg, Mass, of the same league He has won four and lost two. He Is often used as 8 pinch hitter because of his clouting ability. Doc More, the old Springfield server, has won six and lost four for Portland, Me.
 Steve HeFschberger, a New York merchant, has written to President Tener of the National league asking g for an investigation of the verbal ar gu1nent between Johnny Evers of the Boston Braves and several fans who wee in a box at the Polo Grounds last Monday. HerscEnberger says something ought to be done about the remarks Fvers made to the fans. WaT1, some thing was done. Didn't one of the fans sue Johnny for $25,000?

After three years in the amateur ranks Christie turned to the professional game. His hra money bout, in June, 1910, was with Tom Cross, and he knocked him out in the End round at Milwaukee. In 1911 he made a good showing in bouts with a number of good men, among them Mike Gibbons, Freddie Hicks, and George (Knockout) Brown. In 1912 he outpointed Tony Caponi at Dubuque, but lost to Jack Dillon. the Hoosier fighter, in a 15-round contest at Dayton. After two good bouts with Eddie MeGoorty at Fond du Lac early in S1918, Christie went to Boston to meet Mike Gibbons. He stayed the full 12 rounds with the St. Paul shroud, but was outpotnted-s After that Christie took on many Of the mid dleweight stars, but, while showing considerable class, was not quite good enough to reach the championship goal

MANY. ENTRIES IN STATE GOLF MEET
 AT BR0OKLAWN

More than 12o entries have been received for the state golf champion ships which will be held on the Brook lawn club course starting July T. These entries represent the pick of the Connecticut golfers and some re- markable scores will probably be made. Among the entries will be 25 or 80 from the Brooklawn club.
 W. Parker Seeley of Brooklawn will defend his title as state champion and will head the Brooklawn team. Rob ert Abbott of Brooklawn. a former state champion, will also compete. B. P. Merriman of Waterbury, who once held the state title, will be on hand. Another prominent entrant is Henry Topping of Greenwich He went to England last year to try and cap ture the amateur title and will un- doubtedIy make some of the local players hustle. R. M. Lewis of Ridgeheld, who was runner up to Phil Carter in the Junior Metropolitan at Garden City. is expected toNbe a strong contender for the state title.
 One of the big events will be the team match. Each team consists of five players and as BrookIawn and Greenwich have already won the Con verse cup twice, a victory for either of these teams will mean permanent possession. Of course some other team might slip in with a victory.
 The probable lineup of the Brook lawn team will be: W. Parker See ley, Robert Abbott, Spottswood Bow CTS. c. G. Waldo and J. T. L. Hubbard with George H.. Baldwin and Henry B. Stoddard, substitutes.
 The tournament will continue four days and the public is cordially invit- ed to visit the course at any time when the matches are being played.
