BRANDOM'S WORK
GIVES PEPS EDGE
Jockeying of Twirlers Leaves
Staff Strong for Cru
cial Test.
Special to the Evening Star.

BALTIMORE, Md, July S.-An un-
expected turn in affairs was brought
about yesterday when Manager Bill
McKechnie, by jockeying pitchers, was
able to save three of his best twirl-
ers for the important battle of the
series here today between Newark
and Baltimore 1t is the third game
of the set, and with two of the bat
ties won the series is cinched, but
Manager McKechnie wants more than
that He is out to make 1t a clean
sweep.
BY winning yesterday with Chick
Brandon on the mound Manager
Mac has Reulbach. Moseley and Kai-
serling ready to face and tame the
mighty Rankin Johnson. OF the
three above named Pep twirlers the
luckiest has been Reulbach, and then
Kaiserling, with Moseley running a
very bad third when it comes to get
ting a smile from Dame Fortune.
Reulbach pitched six innings on
Monday against Brooklyn and got
credit for winning the game. He is
just the fellow to fool the Terrapins
today, but Manager Mac will warm
up all three to make sure that he
picks the right one.
Laporte's homer yesterday cleared
the left field fence and was the long
est drive of the season here. There
have been numerous homers at the
local park, but Franks was the
hardest wallop of them all.
! Roush retired the side in the ninth.
He robbed Doolan of Texas
Lacquer and then pulled down flies
from Owens and Duncan.
| McKechnie figured on the big end
of two double plays. One he shared
with Laporte and In the other he
used Kuhn for an accomplice.
Rupe Mills is getting more conf
dence in himself and his practice
around first base before the game Is
perfecting his style. Rupe says him
self that he does not know just
where to play for certain batters on
! certain plays, and he Is taking all of
the coaching he gets from the other
| players with deep interest.
After today's game, IL game is
possible. the weather being threaten
| ing. the Pops will return to Newark
Tomorrow is loafing day. Saturday
and Sunday will see the Terrapins in
Newark for two games.

The game Chick pitched was a
tough one. Newark staked him to a
three-run lead in the first inning and
then went scoreless until the ninth,
when a spirited rally put Newark In
front again after Baltimore had man
aged to tie up the score. Brandon
pitched clever game. Eight hits
ere made off his delivery, and three
Of these swats were triples, but New
ark wai there with some of the hefty
o.outin6, too. Fighting Bill McKech-
ME got In a double, and Frank La
porte lifted one over the fence for a
home run. Edd Roush failed to get
in a hit, but he got on through passes
and his fielding was wonderful. In
one round he retired the side on three
sensational catches.

|NEWARK'S FATE WITH FEDS
NOW HANGING IN BALANCE
Sinclair, Powers and Attorney
Confer With Public Service
Officials.
BELIEVE LOOP WOULD AID
Trolley People Promise to De-
eide on Loop at Special
Meeting Monday.

Newark's future as a Federal
League city is now hanging in the
balance. Harry +. Sinclair has
started out on q vigorous campaign
TO ascertain just how the land lies
and his first move was to get into
communication with officials of the
Public Service Corporation.
An official visit was paid to two
high officials of the corporation-Ed
win W. Hine and George Roberts
by Mr.. Sinclair, p t. Powers and
their attorney, William Davis, yes
terday. Mr.. Sinclair told the trolley
officials that the transportation
facilities were so poor that the public
found 1t difficult to get to and from
the ball park in Harrison, and that
unless conditions were improved the
Newark franchise would be trans
ferred The Public Service officials
admitted that the Feds were a big
booster for Newark and promised to
take up at special meeting Monday
the project of building a loop through
Middlesex street to the Federal
League ball park.
Murray TO Get Busy.
Drastic action has also been taken
in another direction. Billy Murray,
scout for the Newark Club, has been
recalled from Baltimore, where he
was acting as business manager for
the team, to go on a scouting expedte
tion. The club will be strengthened as
any cost, and every effort will be
made to corral high-class stars from
the American and National League
clubs, whether or not the franchise is
retained by Newark.
Mr.. Sinclair said that he was will
ing to give Newarkers every opportu-
nifty to show whether they wanted
the Feds to remain here; that the
best on the market would be provided
In the playing line, and that the Feds
prospects were never brighter, but
Newark would have to show its ap-
probation to retain the club.
Facilities Inadequate.
The poor facilities for reaching the
Feds Park have proved a handicap.
The narrow footpath over the Center
street bridge has been blockadel
daily, even when there is only small
turnout. Nothing has been done to
remedy this fault. On rainy days.
too, the fans who have been caught
at the park have no way of getting
away without drenching. A loop
with connections over jackson street
and over the Bridge street bridge
would add much to the convenience
OF the fans.
The meeting between the Newark
club and Public Service officials was
most cordial, and Mondays meeting
will probably prove to be beneficial to
! all hands concerned Mr.. Sinclair
makes 1t emphatic, however, that the
fate of Newark as Federal League
stronghold depends on the fans.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-08-17

In the first place Mrs Solon Jacobs, known far and wide as the leading suf- fragist of Alabama, will cover the game for The Age Herald. For tomor- TOW afternoon Mrs Jacobs has con scented to assume the role of sporting editor, and her diamond sparks" will be we'll worth reading on Thursday morning.
 To Be in Press Box
 One of the questions that naturally came up when it became noised about that Mrs. Jacobs was to write the base ball game of Suffrage Day for The Age Herald was whether the state president of the Suffrage association would cover" the game from the press gal lory or from d less conspicuous position. This is still to be decided.
 Of course as is well known ladies are tabooded in the press gallery, ow ing to the objections of Secretary Matt Stradford, who states that he cannot keep the correct score with any gos- sipping going on. However. Mir. Stard- fcrd. under pressure, has consented to withdraw all objections to the presence of Mrs. Jacobs in the press gallery on Suffrage Day.
 If Mrs. Jacobs can get up in tho press boh. Sdlu tne EeHlHi SetTtldTN :, we will do everything we can to mako her comfortable"
 According to Miss Dolly Dalrymple, whose advance story of the Suffrage Day game will be one of the features of tomorrow mornings Age-Herald, Mrs. Jacobs Is certain to make the ascen- sion to the press box. Thus our brother scribes are forewarned and they may as well get out their sport shirts and attend tOmprrOW's game with entntlSi- - astic mien.
 Other Features Other features will be the one inning affair between two ball teams of young ladies. No unmire has yet been chosen for this, as heroes are scarce at the present time in the Birmingham dis trict.
 After all the ceremonies are com pleted Miss Annie Shapiro will pitch
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-08-17

tho trst ball to Lookout batter, and that will begin the game the story of which by Mrs. Jacobs should prove one of the Journalistic triumphs of the age.
 Suffrage day al Redwood Is going to be one brilliant occasion.
