Singers battery figured prominently in the defeat of the Crane Go. team Saturday, Champion flaming 12 of the Crane batters, while O'ConneH, his receiver, landed on the pill safely three times out of five up. The score was 6 to 8. Christy and Lockwood played good ball for the sewing ma chine crew while Butler and Johnson were the willow wielders for the valve makers. Butler secured two doubles, while his teammate garnered a. dou ble and 8 triple. Singers win tied them for first place with the U. M. c. Go.

RECORDS LIKELY
 TO BE BROKEN IN
 RACE ON THAMES

Gales Ferry, Conn.,. June 12.-Yale and Harvard crews who are in camp on the Thames established two things by their remarka ble time rows of Sat- urday night and Friday. They proved that they are fast as the two uni versailles have ever sent here, and they. gave the quietus to talk of any more general changes in the varsity boats
 If changes are made, and they are not impossible at either Yale or liar yard, they will be individual in char aeter, but not general in scope.
 In the second place. it was made certain that either Yale or Harvard, given the conditions necessary, can clip the Thames record of 20 minutes, 10 seconds on regatta day. This rec ord has stood since 1888, although it has been lowered in practice by both Yale and Harvard crews.
 It was asserted unofficially by a. boating critic yesterday that Harvard has never covered the course in prac- ttce faster than Saturday evening, when the time trial was finished in 19 minutes, 43 seconds, 27 seconds better than the competition record.

SLUMP OF EVERS
 RESPONSIBLE FOR DECLINE OF BRAVES

The case of the Boston Braves is one that is puzzling the baseball critics throughout the country. The Back Bay bunch Is not playing the. game 1t should, and there have been various reasons ascribed- The main reason, to our mind, is the falling away of Johnny Evers. The little Trojan is not playing the game of which he is capable. EVers has ex- perienced a complete change of spirit this season. He is no longer the scrapping aggressive boy he was year ago. The constant nagging of officials is largely responsible for this.
 No matter how Evers turned, no matter what he said. he was suspend ed and fined and put out of the game. He was fnallysile nced,> but with that silence has come the retr rogression of one of the greatest ball players who syer trod the diamond.

Hinchnan was hammering the pill in the National League for .319! In the Federal League Hal Chase did not rank anywhere near Magee as bat ter, yet Chase is pounding the horse hide for 1922.
 This triangle-Magee, .21S; Hinch- man, .319; Chase, .322-maV by some even be construed as an asper- sion the National League. Yet, ac- cording to our way of looking at it, this is the one year in which the American League has nothing on the senior circuit. In fact, we have a suspicion that, averaging the teams up, the National classes just a bit above the Johnson wheel.
 Again we want to harp on the un- certainty of baseball. We note that Joe Jackson is hitting .321 and play ing the game of his life for the White Sox Had the Yankee owners so de- sired they could have got Jackson in return for allowing Baker to go to Chicago. Had Jackson come here Maise1 would never have broken his
 shoulder blade, as he would have ] played at third. Still, we are mighty glad to have Baker with us. He's going to do a lot better before July 4.

DENINCER AT HEAD OF LOCAL
 CL0UTERS YET

Otto Deininger, the slugging out fielder of the Bridgeport club, has fallen below the 300 mark for the first time this season. That 16 inning game on Saturday when Otto failed to get hit in six times up, hurt his aver age. He is pounding away at -293 clip, which is good enough for any body. Deininger leads the club but Jimmy Curry is going we'll Manning and Baker haven't had opportunity to show their wares yet. Red Whalen has been improving the past two weeks, but he got such a poor start that although lie has gained 70 points he hasn't reached the 200 mark yet. These averag ges, which include yester- days game are official:

day there were 1000 paid admissions at each contest. This gave the local management a chance to pay expenses anyway.
 Yesterday was the first time Jimmy Curry failed to get his daily hit. Ho drew a couple of passes, however. No player on the club has a better eye on pitched balls than the local out fielder.
 Pitcher Press of Lawrence admit ted after the game that Ball should have been passed in the ninth. Umpire Ennis called a strike on what should have been the fourth ball.
 Red whalen has the bleachers with him. He was given a sympathetic cheer when O'Conneu robbed him of a triple by a, jumping catch in the third.
 Lee TohI has captured two cole gians fer his Cleveland club. They are Pitcher Gunkel and Catcher Brad ley of the University of Illinois. The success of the Cleveland club in re- mainfng at the top has inspired the players with the belief that they have a chance for the pennant and they are playing like demons now.
 Guy Morton. the former Waterbury twirler, is having a good season with Cleveland. He broke the strikeou1 record for the season by flaming 3 o1 the Athletics yesterday.

OTTO KNABE'S
 TOUGH LUCK

Hard luck seems to be Otto Knabe's middle name. When he deserted the Phillies to assume the management of the Baltimore Feds he got together a team which looked like a winner. only to have it crumb1e and fall to pieces. When the Fed league blew up the pilot of the Terrapins was left to hold the bag, with a contract not worth the paper it was printed on. Eventually he landed a job with the Pirates, but he had slowed down so much that he wasn't good enough even for that humble crew, and was recently turned loose. Knabe is thir- ty-two years old today. having been born in Carrick, Pa, on June 12 1884. Otto started his career with Pueblo and Colorado Springs in 1905, and later played with the Toledo Mudhens. Pittsburgh drafted him but swapped him to the PhiIlies for Camnitz.

 Regatta on Hudson

Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 12-Fra1rI~ ing for the last week before the re- gatta on Saturday began today at all the college rowing camps. Despite the miserable weather of the last 0va days, which has brought daily rR2n and cold winds, all four coaches made the most of the conditions and sent out the oarsnen twice a day except Saturday, when an exceptionally cold morning kept the Columbia crews ofE the river.
 Jim Ten Eyck of Syracuse was sat- isfied after Fridays practice that he had ordered enough hard work for hia crews. Coaches Wright of Pennsylva- mia and Courtney of Cornell began Saturday morning the first of series of speed tests, which signihed that strenuous, training was nearly finished, and Coach Jim Rice of Columbia, sent his men out Saturday afternoon GCE the last hard drill.
 Charles B. Courtney, coach of the Cornell crews, has given up his oDig- ina1 intention to return to Ithaca to- day, and will remain at quarters until after the race. This encouraging neWH for Ithaca oarsmen was announced last night. The "old man. will not endeavor to give direct coaching from his launch, but will leave that duty to John Hoyle. his assistant and boat builder, and will confine himsef to visits to the boathouse. twice a day.
