Bingles of Cuban Shortstop
in the Eighth Inning

Fought Game.

From Star Correspondent OF Inc lrlU4"o.i
Davtona, Fla, March 25.-Wilbert
Robinson numbers Romie Romanach
among his closest friends. If not the
prince of shortstops, Romanach IS the
prince of good fellows, and Robbie is
prepared to defend his pal 10 the last
bunker This sudden devotion is not
without good and sufficient cause, ioF
the aforementioned shortstop was prl-
marilv responsible for the All star
Cubans being defeated by the Superbas
In the third game of the series here
this afternoon by score OF to o.
The victory came when all seemed
lost save honor. Patterning his worH
after the dramatic masters, Romanach
saved his masterpieces until the elghth IN
frame, when the score stood TO IN
favor of his team. Then he blew the
WORKS. The Superbas seized the open
ing and fell upon Lu1s Padron' VINO

mered out half dozen runs; .
Rilly Zimmerman began the inning
With q clean hit 10 right field, and
pen Snow. who replaced Miller, drove
"a centre FOR base. Storm clouds
were gathering and the excitable Gu.
hans were chattering like a flock OF
narrots. Pat Ragan laced one down 70
fomanach. who threw poorly TO SECOND
hosc and three were on where doubie
play should have resulted.
Rut Romie was prcdcstned for even
GREATER deeds. Joe Schultz stepped IN
and turned one down TO him, 1ast
hall that bounded right. Romsnacn
nieked il UP and threw to second, forc-
ing Snow, while Zimmerman inc
natural victim, csntered over the plate
Thus another easy double play was
fooled. Padron cut loose with nood
OF Spanish. Having voiced MS senti-
ments freely, Luis returned 10 pltch-
ing. but his goat and control were MISS
ing. Hit followed hit until the SIX
runs were pushed over the plate ana
the day saved. ,,.l
M Carlos Patrick Ragan divided the
n;,chinr labors. PfcfTer started the
rame and remained on the mound for
four full innings. JEFF was inclined TO

Three-Year Contract at
His Own Terms.
DEVLINS TOO STRONG
FOR SEYMOUR TEAM
Mc0raw Makes Long Triple and
Comes Into Bag with
Hook Slide.
BY HEYwOOD BROUN.

Marlin, Tex, March 25-The price
which Bob Bescher set upon his own
head has been accepted by the Car
dinsis. Possibly il is misleading TO
say head. Roberts baseball assets run
rather more TO legs, to arms and TO
eye. At any rate, John McGraw re
ceived word from Miller Huggins this
afternoon that the ST. Louis club would
give Bescher a three-year contract al
his own terms. This message has been
relayed to the outfielder, who is now
with the second team Of Giants at
Sherman. Tex. He will probably re-
port TO the Cardinals Immediately.
Bescher came to the Giants in a deal
which sent Herzog to the Reds. John
McGraw was not in New York when
the dicker was made. and il has always
been understood that il was put
through without his advice. At any
rate, the Giants did not profit by the
shift.
Third base remained weak spot all
last season, and Bescher did not add
20 the outheld strength. A great play
or with a second-rate club, the fleet
footed outfelder could not seem TO fit
into the mechanism Of pennant con-
tender. On the bases he failed 10
show his old pace, and he WAS disap-

HuRgins 4. shrewd manager, and II
ma be that Bescher will prove a find
for ST. Louis, but there is no future
for him in New York. He was not of
the McGraw type. Bescher goes to the
Cardinals in exchange for Poll Perritt
Bescher's teammates all expressed
sympathy for him last night. In spite
Of the fact that he has been able 70
command a fat salary, no one here
envies him his luck. The old horror
Of 81. Louis grips them all. Just why
st. Louis should be so distasteful TO
the professional baseball player we
have never been able to ascertain. We
understand that it is large city. with
public library and very creditable
art museum. To be sure. 1t may be a
little hot in summer, but its beer is
excellent.
The departure of the second team
left a dearth of players here, but the
Giants are an imaginative lot, and had
all sorts of fun this afternoon in a
new game which they made up for the
occasion. 1t is called baseball and
played under the same rules, but the
novelty consists in placing number
Of pitchers in the far confines OF the
field and pretending that they are out
helders.
Arthur Devlin captained one team
and Cy Seymour led the other. John
McGraw was Devlin's first bsseman. Cy
had most of the regulars, while Dew
lin had TO get along with an outfeld
which included al various times

SOME SHOTS OFF
THE FIRST TEE

Although it has been known for some
time that the Lesley Cup matches
would be played over the links of the
Merton Cricket Club, near Philadelphia,
the dates for this big golfnG attrac-
tion were announced only yesterday.
October ! and , is the time selected.
This means that two big intcrsec-
tional competitions will be run off at
Merton, the Lesley and the Griscom
Cup contests. Merton has two 1S-hole
houses, and is better equipped in links
than any other club in this section OF
the country. This year will be the
first that these two competitions have
been held a. the same place.
Frank II. Hoyt, who played with
Francis Ouimet in the Lesley Cup
matches at Batusrol last fall, will
shortly move from Boston to New York.
IL is likely, therefore. that he will be
ineligible 10 play for Massachusetts,
next fall.
Meanwhile. John &. Anderson. who
has been studying here all last sum
mer and this winter, will soon return
TO his native heath and take part in
more tournaments.
George l.. Fotheringham. who origi-
nally hailed from Carnoustie and lately
has been stationed at johannesburg.
South Africa, arrived in this country
the other day. Fotheringham is the
open champion OF South Africa. and
came here because the war had ma
terially hurt golf in that region. He is
staying awhile with James Maiden at
Glen Cove.
Plans are being formulated for a
new golf and country club at Park
Ridge, y. j., in Northern Bergen
County, not far from the New York
State line. This will be the ninth golf
course IN that county.
