Will 0fficiate In Lowe.Houck
Match at Ardmore Next
Tuesday Night.

P. F. OConnor. than whom there is
no more efficient ring official In this
vicinity. will referee the main bout at
the Tommy LoweWillie Houck meeting
at Ardmore next Tuesday night. De-
spite whispering around pugilistic cir
cles to the effect that some other official
would be named to work Tuesday, 1t
became known today that Manager La
Fontaine has never seriously considered
any other man for the work
"O'Connor has the ability and reputa-
ton to handle any affair that is staged
at my club" said LaFontaine today,
land I would consider the act Of using
any one else a distinct detrment to the
prospects Of the club"
Besides having the confidence Of La
Fontaine, Pat O'Connor Is trusted by
tn. throngs that have seen him in ac-
ton at Ardmore and elsewhere. The
public would rather see him as third
man in the ring than any official who
could possible be imported
Lowe has about brought himself to
the weight he desires and after today
will do Just enough training to keep
himself In condition. He Is filled with
confidence but knows that he has been
mated with a fast man. Reports from
Atlantic City indicate that Houck Is
fast rounding into shape. He meets
Patterson at York tonight, but he takes
this as part OF his training for Lowe, as
the route Is not long.

Leaders Take Victory
As Matter of Course
Strain of Winning Does Not Appear to Affect the
Boston, Chicago, and Detroit Clubs-Phila-
delphia and Cleveland Tied for Last
BY KIRK C. MILLER.

Boston, Chicago. and Detroit. Of the
American League, Y. 8. A., take this
business of winning ball games as a
matter Of course. Those cities think
nothing Of winning a game every day
and sometimes two. They expect 1t.
1t is all a matter Of routine with them.
Wherefore this speed contest in the cir
suit in which Washington seems to be
an added starter. is rapidly waxing
quite as hectic as that which is ram
pant in the National League.
The thread of this little competition
lies In the uncertainty Of which day
one OF these clubs is going to lose a
game. The strain of winning Is as in
furious to the winning qualities OF a
team as the ignominy of losing is to an
''also ran SO the only way for the
successful club toSdo IL to let its VIC
tories become a matter Of course rather
than to let the mental excitement Of
being up in the race become a nuisance
or deter ones nightly slumbers. This
from the players standpoint.
From the vantage OF the fan. both
races are simply the product of the fair
les. Dreamland itself could not produce
sketches which would so appeal to the
multitude, and this goes also for the
magnate. Close baseball races are in
variabiy first aid to the box offices. so
we all say. 'let EN- rave

Three very potent facts which are
revealed in the following tabulation
are responsible for the fact that the
Griffmen are not this year at the

for the league honors. They are
that the team is last in club batting,
last in long hits by clubs, and it has
no member in the list Of the leading

GOVERNING BOARD
TO HANDLE CASES.
AFTER A. A. SESSION
Meeting Called Monday Night,
While Government Circuit
Gets Together Tonight.
By BRYAN MORSE.


President Robert H. Young, Fred
Dennet, and s. Edward Beach, con-
stituting the board of governors Of
the Amateur Association. Of the Dis
trict, will be called together Monday
night at Spsldings' store to settle
the various difficulties recently
arisen in the amateur leagues.
President Young has announced q
meeting to be held at Spaldings' on
Monday at which time the question
of the post season series, dates, and
arrangements, rating of teams, and
other matters pertaining to the big

series, will be taken up.
Tonight w. C. Deane, president Of
the Government League; John s.
Collins, manager of the Commerce
nine, and E. r. Williams, manager
of the Bureau team, will take up the
protests arising over the recent con-
troversy in the eau-Commerce
game ordered resumed in the ninth
inning.
1t now develops that Manager Collins
wants the game played over. Difficulty
has arisen over the Interpretation Of the
rules. and 1t Is thought that the largest
question to be handled by the board Of
governors of the Amateur Association Is
that Of the Government League.
The outcome Of the Bureau-Commerce
game will determine the winner Of the
second series and the team to battle the
Marines for the championship Of the cir
cult in fve-game series.
Charles d. Baylis. manager Of the Ma
rines. Is far from downcast over the
showing of his team in the last few
games. The Marines have been without
the services Of several Of its best play
ers. En- route for Washington and ex-
pected to arrive from a cruise today
are Catcher Williams. Pitchers Denman.
and knight. Second Baseman Murphy,
and Shortstop Fitzgerald.
Manager Baylis expects the players In
time for today's game with the Interior
Departmental League. The Marines will
not be caught Mapping. according to to
Manager Baylis. THE Marines will
