| Hard Luck George Chalmers had singled

doing a little high and lofty juggling
the first man went to third,
Jake Daubert at this point inserted
double that scored a run. Wheat tried TO
keep up the canuonade, but Niehon got
his grounder and ran down O'Mara be
tween third and first. Daubert was caught
at the plate a few seconds later by a
snappy throw from Bancroft, But all
was not over for Wheat scored on the
double steal
Dell, the youngster who has two vic

hurled into the final game of the series

REMNANT OF ATHLETICS
1910 MACHINE LEFT

OF the famous Athletic machine that
won the American League and worlds
championships In 1910 there Rre only
McInnis. Davis, Thomas, Lapp, Oldring,
strunk and Barry with the team now,
and rumOr has Il that the latter will be
traded within few days.
There has never been greater ma
chine than thRt one, and the many
changes in the lineup illustrate clearly
just how short the life OF II star ball
player really Is. Those who have gone
from the ranks are Hartse1, Lord, Baker,
Collins, Livingstone. DonOhue, krause,
Adkins, Bender, Plank, CoOmbs, Morgan,
DyEert, Houser and Danny Murphy. The
rest of the l0I3-1O14 teams were picked
up since 1919, when the Mackmen
slumped badly.

Smashing an AIibi

Some years ago Harry Vardon bor-
rowed an old rusty putter and won a
championship by using it. At Essex
County. Oswald Kirkby borrowed a
strange set OF clubs and won the low
gross. At Fox Hills recently Eddie Van
Vleeck did the same thing,
1t Ia painful business. but we introduce
these snatches of evidence to throttle the
ancient alibl of the player who, visiting
a strange course and renting a set Of
clubs, launches the excuse that he isn't
playing with his own implements
For, as the Sage Of Sportdom might
observe. a good shot goes far better from
a poor club than a bad shot goes from a
good one.

AEROPLANE MOTOR
SOUGHT BY DANIELS
Department Faces Problem in
Finding Type Suitable for the
Navy's Use.

wANTED-A perfect type Of motor
for aeroplanes. Apply to Secretary Of
the Navy Daniels.
This is an index to the aeropl8ne prob
lem with which Secretary Daniels and
the'Navy Department are wrestling. They
are not &c much concerned about how
many aeroplanes to ask from Congress
as they are about a suitable motor.
They haven't got one and are having a
hard time getting one.
F. In regard to reports that he would ask
for 200 aeroplanes next session Of Con-
gress, Secretary Daniels did not deny
this, but said he would not make his
estimates until October and the general
board would not present Its program
until September.
I've are trying to get the best type
Of motor" said the Secretary. We
are studying motors now and to get
q satisfactory one is the great trou-
ble.'
Congress has allowed the Navy De-
partment 100000 for airships, but the
Secretary does not feel like buying
them now. He said the department In
the next two months would have sew
eral motors which 1t would try out and
by October hoped to be able TO settle
on a new type.

AV|ATORS
SOUGHT BY. FRANCE
Big Unit Planned Which May Be
Turned Over to the United
.., States After the War.

NEW YORK, July 12.--To fill the
great gaps cut in the ranks Of the
French army's aviation corps by the
war, II IL proposed. according to a let
ter from Paris. to organize body Of
American aviators for service with the
French army.
There Is already an American air
squad in Paris. composed Of American
flyers. and the idea is to make that the
nucleus of a big American unit to serve
with the French army during the war
and to he turned. over TO the American
Government at the conclusion OF hostili-
ties, thus providing the United States
with q ready-made air service, fully
equipped and trained. France Is very
anxious to help this proposition and Is
preparing to offer inducements in tho
way of training. etc. that are expected
to bring in the American volunteers
needed. A fund has already been start
ed. and to Judge by the subscriptions.
the idea seems to be exceedingly pop
ular.
The fourth arm. as France calls tho
ar service. has been more affected by
the war than any other branch Of the
army. not excepting the cavalry. Thus
France to be the most useful form OF
aeroplane. are giving place almost en-
tirely to biplanes, whose steadiness, sim
plicitv OF control. and greater carrying
power outweigh the superior speed OF
monoplanes. which are now used exclu-
| sively for scouting. .s
Similarly a great change has beer
made in the engine. Rotary, air-coolet

| most conspicuous, have not proved suf
ficiently steady and durable for th'
strain of war work The engine now
used 10 fixed and water-oooled. some
times radial. but generally Of the
type. new engine OF this type which
| has given especial satisfaction is sal,
to be considered 30 important an addi
ton to the French air service that
planes equipped with It are kept unde
| lock and key. and no pilots except tn,
| man actually In charge are allowed evel
| TO see them.
Apart from these changes, no strik
ing novelties have so far been devel
oped by the war. but it is doubtful
| whether outsiders realize the enormou
advance that has been made dur1nJ
| the last ten months in the, duration
and quality Of flights undertaken b.
airmen. Thus. year ago it was de
cldeoly inc exceptlon Tor any save TIT
cleverest OF flyers to go up in rougl

daring. Now. however hundreds o
airmen. belonging to all the great bel
ligerent armies, think nothing OF flynn
in any kind of weather with tho ad
| ditional risk Of hostile shell fire. IN
sight OF aeroplane lights. like shooting
stars in the Paris sky. has become 3
| tn he - rfad With ~
usual interest by the population.
This advance, however. has bee
made with heavy sacrifice OF lii.
| which, combined with the huge in
| crease in the number OF aeroplanes-
France alone is producing thirty a day
| apart from those being built on he
orders in America-has caused a YER
