In the seventh inning Of this game,
with the Yankees four runs ahead,
Shawkey got wild and passed myself,
Crawford, and Veach. after two were
out. knew that the New York
moundsman waa right on the brink or
complete collapse, so, when l got
around to third. I decided to worry
him as much as possible. l ran up and
down the lines yelling and waving my
arms, hoping to fiuster him and finally
took a little too much room and was
caught between bases and run down. OF
course. that ended the rally and the
fans started to ride" me-
Naturally, l did look bad after they
put me out. but IL I had succeeded in
getting Shawkey so far up in the air
that the batter either would have been
able to get a 'groover" to hit or
pass, ! would have been given credit
for using my head. 1t all depends on
how things come out.
Earlier in the season, in a game with
Washington, almost the same thing
happened, except that this time the bat
ter hit a short foul and I was doubled
up That time. too, ! was trying to
rattle the pitcher and I figured that a
steal Of home was Just the thing to do
it. I realized. of course. that my one
run wouldn't win the game, as the Ma
tionals had lead of three, but the psy-
! Geological effect would have been
enough to have put the twirler COM

The Washington times., 1915-07-17

I remember one time that one of the
Tigers stole second with the bases
filled and two out in a close game, and
before St. Louis, the opposing club. had
finished throwing the ball around every
body had scored. 1t was one of the
most inexcusable "boners' in baseball
history, but it won that game for us,
because the Browns pitcher was unhit-
table. and the batter who was up in the
pinch didn't even get a foul when
things finally settled down.
Another case was In the world s
series last fall when Charlie Deal got
caught flatfooted off second base. but
made third when Barry couldn't get
hold of the ball to throw. Deal finally
scored the winning run. and a lot of
people tried to say that he had pur-
knowing that he would be able to make
third Perhaps he did, but if so, he
had about one chance in a thousand to
succeed, and If he hadn't been lucky
| enough to cover up his faux pas he
| would have been charged with being
one OF the biggest Ivory skulls" in his

There is something about the present

ago we didn't care much how far we

We won half our games by coming from

| This year, we are doing the same
! thing. Honestly, we hate to be in front

| that it Is iuckier to have the other fell

| how many runs we have to make In
! the last two or three sessions, we be-
| lieVe that we can make them, and we
| very frequently do against even the
best pitchers. Last Monday, for in
stance. in a game with Boston we over
came leads OF five runs. of two runs, OF

when we were behind. Unfortunately

and we don't expect to. but there isn't

WELLESLEY CLUB
 BENEFIT PICTURE SHOW SATURDAY.

The Moving Picture Show for the benefit of Wellesley College Fire Fund at Bridgeport High school, Sat- urday. offers a rare opportunity to get 9 glimpse of out-of-door life at the College Beautiful It speaks much for this sterling institution that her daughters have been able to se- cure in money and pledge the enoP- nous sum necessary to rebuild. in so short a time and at such time as this. When one recalls that nearly all the money. came in small sums as the result of seIf-denial and hard work, it is evident that there is 8. vast number through out the country who appreciate the ideals for which Vel lesley stands and think it worth while to help establish her on a sound basis.
 One could scarcely find a more da- 1ightfuI way to spend a couple of hours and at the same time share in the privilege of being represented in the Restoration Fund than by att tending the show which the Bridge port Wellesley club will give Satur- day afternoon and evening of this week. Besides the Wellesley reel which has aroused much admiration wherever it has been seen, the mas terpiece, Les Mfserab1es, will be giv- en with 8 new Edison Monograph to furnish the music.
 The Columbia Graphophone Co. of Bridgeport has had two double disc records made of Wellesley GIee club songs on which they give a royalty to the Fire Fund, and which can be played on the Victor machine as we'll as on the Edison with attachment, so it does not behoove those connect ed with Wellesley to make any com parisons of these rival machines, but it does behoove those who enjoy mu- sic to avail themselves of this op- portunity to hear the Wizard Edison's perfected instrument, which has been kindly loaned for this occasion.
