Collins misjudged Lewis fly and it
went for a double, giving Boston two
runs. Thereafter four of the visitors
reached first on fumbles. three of
whom scored, while another boot al
lowed a Bostonian to reach third and
score on sacrifice.
Wood pitched a great game after the
first inning, Chicago saving them
selves from a shutout when a double,
a base on balls and two singles gave
them to runs. Only one other hit was
made off him. His support was per-

The protest made by the Analostan
Boat Club against the loss of the senior
race in the Peoples regatta at Phila-
delphia July seems to find favor
among the followers of aquatics in
that city. An article printed in one of
the Philadelphia papers asks whether
the Analostans should be forced to ac-
cept defeat if the conditions as quoted
are correct. Here is the excerpt from
the column of rowing news relative to
the Analostan affair:
"A report that the committee which
was in charge of the meet had received
formal letter from the Analostan
Boat Club of Washington. d. c., pro-
testing it's defeat by the Undine oars
men in the senior eight-oared shell
race, was current among the different
clubs along Boathouse row. in Fair
mount Park. yesterday afternoon.
From the premise on which protest is
based it would appear that the Undine
club overstepped it's limitations.
Before entering a discussion of the
protest. it's grounds and purposes. it
might be well to cite rules of the as
the regatta, and which are directly
involved. Rule No. ) is as follows
No club shall be allowed to enter any
person who has not been a member
thereof for at least three months be-
fore the regatta or who has been en-
tered in any other race from that club
during the time etc. Rule states
There shall be sent to the secretary
of the regatta committee in all cases
of entries for Fights list of not more
than twelve names, and from these the
actual crews shall be selected
And in direct violation the manage
ment of the Undine club used Oarsman
Pepper and Oarsman Borie at No. 6
and No. I, respectively. In the case Of
the former an infringement is made
on rule 5. AS a matter of fact, Pep
per's name was not on the program
which in itself was enough to debar
him. Twelve others were duly re-
corded. Borie, it appears, had been a
member of the University Barge Club
and it was not until short time be-
fore the regatta was held that his
name was placed on the rolls of the
Undine club. He had not been men,
Der for ninety days. as is required.
LAS it can very properly be pointed
out by the officials of the Analostar
club, had it known of the liberty t.
pick from other organizations, such

men as Frank Chamberlain. unques-
tionably one of the most capable oars
men on the Potomac club eight, and
Jim Douglas of the Old Dominion club
of Alexandria, would have been Sc
cured in order to instill the necessary
experience into the squad.
1T was generally understood among
local oarsmen that at the time of the
regatta the officials of the Analostan
crew protested Peppers presence in the
boat. but later withdrew their objec-
ton. However, the question still re-
mains: Should Analostan, especially If
the conditions such as have been named
in their protest existed, be forced to
accept defaat?
AL Nevius, captain of the Analostan
club, said Immediately after the race
that the matter would be carried out
to the end and that he would work I'M
tiringly to see that fair play was done.
The article quoted from the Philadel-
phia paper brings out the very facts
mentioned by Nevius. and there ap-
pears to be no reason to think other
than that some one exceeded his au-
thority and that the Analostan club is
in the right.
The game in the Catholic Church
League yesterday was forfeited to the
st. Dominics nine, the ST. Peters
team being the sufferer thereby. Too

result of the contest, though, as St.
Peters was on the short end of the
score at the end of eight innings and
probably would have lost anyway.

it's opponent.
The Hamilton Athletic Club took the

the winners and the pitching of Alfred
for the same club were the features

TRACK MEET AT TOXIC.
Far Eastern 0lympics to Take Place
in japanese City,

TOXIC, July 19.-Arrangements have
been made to hold the next Olympic
games of the far east in Toxic. Japan,
in May, 1917. Since the institution of
the games at Manila the tournament
has been popular, and the decision to
hold the next biennial meet at Toxic
has caused great satisfaction among
the Japanese. who are showing a
steadily increasing interest in ath-
letics. The expenses of the meet are
estimated at about $4,000 yen, but base
ball is SO popular in Japan it Is be-
lieved gate receipts alone will total
10000 yen.
It Is expected that the Toxic tour
nament will draw the largest list Of
entries since the beginning of the far
eastern olympiad. Ellwood S. Brown,
secretary of the Far Eastern Athletic
Association, who has been making the
arrangements. says that China will
send at least $50 athletes in 1917. The
Philippine Islands will send about so,
while Siam and the Malay states, the
new members of the association, will
send about 20 each.

distant, according to plans which are
now fast reaching fruition. 1t is the
intention to furnish organized amateur
base ball with arbiters of play who
have, by study and experience, gained
the necessary knowledge to enable
them to preside over a game without
friction.

teachers will be Billy Hart, now a Ma
tional League umpire. and Billy Car
penter. who formerly held an indicator
in the National.
The plan is the product of Recreation
Director J. Howard Renshaw. 1t is
being favorably considered by Supt.
Condor. 1t is the idea to give instruc-
tions to would-be umpires one night
each week during the winter months.
When a candidate has successfully

Tailenders Not Far Away.

A matter of only 115 points separate
the Cincinnati Reds. who are last in the
race, from the Phillies. who are first. so
that even the second division teams are
very much in the fight for the pennant.
Fourth-place honors are divided by ST.
Louis and Pittsburgh. with the Giants
only one point behind and the Boston
Braves only 20 points behind New York.
The Giants and Braves have been COM
ing strong. and If they continue the
the battle in few days.
The splendid work done by young
Mamaux has kept Pittsburgh well up in
the race so far, but the Pirates do not
the Giants and Braves. The latter have
not come up to expectations so far this
season and have failed to make good
the boasts of Manager Stallings, but
and there Is still plenty of time for
them to win out as they did last year.
This years race, however, is more
even than last years and the worlds
ahead of them than they had at this
stage of the race in 1914.
The western teams will wind up their
stay in the east this week and the
eastern clubs must take another whirl
around the circuit. This middle
trip is going to have important bearing
on the pennant fight and it it is up to
the eastern clubs to mako up ground
while their rivals are on the road. The
Phillies have four more games with
the Cubs, including the double-header
scheduled for today. and the defeat of
Saturday. with their best pitcher In the
box, means that they must fight all
the harder to win the games necessary
to hold them in first place. From any
angle you look. 1t is the greatest race
in the history of the National League,
and is doing q lot for organized base
ball.
