II the offerings of Caldwell found lit
tie favor with the Senator'S, so too. the
Yankees met with little success solv-
ing the delivery Of Johnson for nine
innings. They had, however, two op-
portunities to bring the game to an end
before the overtime session set in. In
the eighth inning Joe Gedeon ripped out
a double. and advanced 10 third on
a passed ball. Only one hand was down
al this engrossing moment, but Nuna-
maker popped out, and Caldwell passed
up the chance 10 win the glory which
was destined TO be his later in the game
He grounded meekly to Foster.

Three Western Matches
on FOurth'S Calendar
None in New York.
Rv W. q. McGEEHAN.

The sanity OF New York's Fourth OF
July celebration will be considerably
enhanced by the absence of pugilistic
events this year Not COVE is flying in
Greater New York to-day. Any exhibi-
tions in the line of fstic endeavor will be
impromptu and without benefit OF the
Boxing Commissions collector
Out in the wild, untutored West,
where they still hold to the old fash
ioned Fourth Of July celebrations, those
two nimble old gentlemen, Ad Wolgast
and Freddie Welsh. will entertain in
one section. johnny Dundee will fight
that 145-pound lightweight, Ever Ham
mer. while Jack Dillon will once more
maui poor old Jim Flynn.
Denver, where the WelshW Wolgast
fight is to take place, has no society
for the prevention of cruelty 70 the
aged so the bout probably will be held
The natural sequence will be a clarion
challenge 70 the winner from that old
peoples home where Battling Nelson
resides.
The first mixed bout under the rules
of the State Athletic Commission will
be held at the Harlem Sporting Club
in the upper charcoal district of Man
haitian on Friday night. Leo Johnson
a colored lightweight. will battle Allie
Mack, one Of the paleface prides Of Har-
lem.
This Johnson person has been hailed
by l35th Street as a second Joe Cans
His friends were mainly instrumental

bout rule. They held that it was class
legislation and that it prevented the tai
ented Mr. Johnson from attaining the
glitterng heights to which he was en-
titled because of his natural gifts, or
something like that
If Johnson is another Cans, 10 GER
tainly is crime to have hidden him
this long. II he gets by Mack and few
Others. possibly Bennie Leonard may
endeavor TO convince him that he is
not quite as good as Cans.

Caldwell in Splendid Form.

The slim right-hander Of the Yankees
returned to his best form OF couple
Of years ago, when he was rated as one
Of the best pitchers in the American
League His fast ball. which seemed 20
have deserted him this season, was
much in evidence. and he tipped it
through, clipping the corners Of the
plate with the skill Of a msrksman.
He varied this sizzler with a slow curve
ball that was puzzling indeed and that
hits were few and far between was not
surprising He issued several bases on
balls. but balanced that account by
getting FIVE men on strikes.
Caldwell found himself in a couple
of tight places in the early innings
OF the game In the second inning Joe
Judge opened with a single 20 centre
and took second when Jameson laid
down a sacrifice bunt 10 Caldwell.
Walter Johnson had the chance 10 win
his own game. but mis- high fly to cen

for it when it dropped. and two men
were out. Carl Sawyer tried TO forget
the fact that he is Ii funny man. but his
first attempt 10 hit one of Caldwells :

Gus as his third, and he retired to the

Battle When Senator'S

Run of Game.

Washington, July 3.--The New York
Yankees defeated the mighty Walter
Johnson in a thrilling eleven inning
battle here this afternoon, and in doing
it scored their fifteenth victory in the
last eighteen games.
Slim Caldwell was at the height Of
his game, and fought grim battle with
the Big Bullet for nine innings. then
waxing stronger while his rival fal-
tered, brought the game through to
successful conclusion. II was Caldwell
who scored the run which gave his
team victory by score OF to 0.
For nine innings Caldwell and John
son fought each other to a standstill.
In that time the Yankee moundsman
had somewhat the better of the argu-
ment. He allowed three hits, as did
johnson, but two of the Yankees got as
far as third base. while none Of the
home team travelled 20 that great dis
tance. Three of the Senators advanced
10 second. and there they stayed, paw
ing the dust Of the paths, praying for
the hit which would have meant victory.
Johnson First to Faltsr.
The strain was too great for all en-
durance. II resolved itself into a ques-
tion Of which one of those mighty right
arms would weaken first. and Johnson
faltered first. In the last two frames
the Yankees got to the speed king and
punched out the hits which decided the
issue.
Nunamaker started the final frame
by looping a single into short right
field which just evaded the frenzied
leap of Eddie Foster Caldwell raped
a sharp grounder to Foster, who threw
to Carl Sawyer, forcing Nunamaker,
but Slim beat the attempt at double
play.
Frank Glhooley hit slow roller
down 10 shortstop, making II count for
a hit, and Caldwell was safe at second.
Walter Johnson has never had much
respect for the ability OF Hughie High
as a slugger. so he burned the ball
over in an effort to knock the bat out
of the little fellows hands. Hughie
has mis- own ideas on how 70 handle
Johnson, so he topped a fast ball for a
perfect bunt, and the bases were filled.
The time was ripe for a cleanup
wallop. and Bill Donovan pulled Roger
Peckinpaugh out of the game and sent
Roy Hartzell up to the plate 10 hit in
the shortstop's place. The inheld
played back for a double play, but that
double play never happened. Hartzell
lifted short fly 70 left field, and after
the catch Caldwell dashed for the plate.
He arrived safely, too. and the game
was won. Shooting from behind that
meagre but all-suffcient lead. Caldwell
held the home team at bay IN the iinal

METHODlSTS PLANNING
TO ENLARGE CHURCH
SUBJECT DISCUSSED AT QUAR-
TERLY CONFERENCE
Committee Appointed With Power to
Employ Architect; Will Report
Plans to Official Board at Next
Monthly Meeting.

The question Of enlarging the
Methodist church in Brownsville has
been under consideration by that con-
gregation for some time as the pres
ent building is entirely too small, es-
peeially for Sunday School purposes.
At the quarterly conference Tuesday
night, the subject was brought up by
the Sunday school superintendent and
apparently met with the approval of
the entire official board On motion
the chairman was instructed to ap
point committee Of five, whose duty
it shal be to secure the services Of an
architect, and with his aid, present
plans for the enlargement Of the build
ing to the official board at its regular
meeting on the fourth Tuesday IN
April. The committee is composed Of
the following gentlemen: Jno. 0. Be-
mer G. W. Lyle, William Kinney, ~
j. Taylor and J. D. Curtis.
The membership Of the Brownsville
church is well over six hundred and
the Sunday school is large in proper
tion. The present building is entirely
inadequate to meet .he demands and
the movement to enlarge the building
is a splendid step forward and viii BE-
hailed with delight by the entire col-
gregation.
The present building was erected
about sixteen years ago and in many
respects it is one Of the most attract
i've in the Memphis conference. The
Sunday school facilities have always
been inadequate and especially so
during the past few years. The roof
of this building has never given sat
isfaction and the contemplated chan
ges will remedy this defect There is
plenty of room adjacent to the build
ing and owned by the church for the
contemplated, and those ia
miliar with conditions believe the
change can be effected without the ex-
penditure Of very large sum of mon
ey.
