ST. PETERSBURG. Fla. March 90
The Phillles will divide squads today and
the regulars will play the recruits.
The Moranites appear to be going at a
speedy clip now having shut out the
Cuban Reds yesterday in a fast game.
Jacobs, the big Texan, was largely re-
sponsible for the victory yesterday.
Jacobs held the firing line for seven in
nings, during which time the Cubans
gathered only four hits, two OF which
came in the fifth. the only frame in
which one of the islanders got peep at
Bert Niehoff's station. Mattison worked
in the last two innings and not a man
reached first. The pitching of these lads
was particularly noteworthy. in view OF
the fact that they are of the end of the
pitching staff that is working hardest to
retain berths with the Quakers.
For three innings not man reached
first off Jacobs, then Herrera, the most
dangerous batsman with the Reds,
bounced a single off Bancroft's glove
which first spoiled the chances of a no.
hit, no-run affair. The Phillies were not
overZealous with their clubs, as Pitcher
Perez allowed them only eight hits which
were not of the timely nature.

Unusual Feat in American
Event.

Norway's lawn tennis champion Miss
Molla Bjurstedt, captured the American
national indoor championship in the sin
giles yesterday in the final of the annual
tournament on the courts OF the Seventh
Regiment Armory, New York city. In
the great and hotly contested final the
hard-hitting girl from Norway defeated
Miss Marie Wagner the playing through
holder of the laurels in straight sets, by
the score of Ga, GA. The match was so
closely fought as to make the margin
very slight. as the respective point totals
at the end stood at 81 for the winner to
Sd for the loser
The singles match, in which Miss Blur
stedt began the service, at once developed
into a series of spirited driving rallies.
The Norwegian was easily the steadier,
and always the aggressor. She hit with
wonderful power. While her backhand
strokes were not dependable, the forcing
play of the girl from Norway was always
equal to the task of compelling the de-
Tending champion to play the way she
wanted her to.
