ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1859-Chara1ey Lynch defeated Sam Ffnighty in 43 rounds at Kentish Marshes, Eng, Lynch was the feath- erweight champion of America, while Finighty held the same title in Eng land. This was their second meet ing, the first having been won by the English man on a foul in the 95th round. Lynch was the first of the little boxers of America to cross the pond and fight for the worlds title, wich he held until 1862 when he was whipped in a 54 round contest by George Holden, an Englishman. In- terest in the featherweight division lapsed for a time, but it was revived in the sos when Tommy Warren be- came the champion of America. He was succeeded by Ike Weir. a native of Ireland, and the late sos and the early '90's were the palmy days of the featherweight division. Weir, Johnny Griffin, George Dixon and a dozen oth- CT stars represented America, while Australia had great boy in Billy Murphy, who took the title from Weir, although he did not hold it long. Perhaps the greatest of them all, however, was the English feather weight champion of that period, Frank Murphy, who came to America in 1889 and fought Ike Weir 80 rounds to a draw.

LOCALS DEFEATED
 IN CLOSE CONTEST

Portland. July Brilliant fielding by the home team enabled Portland to win a hard fought 2 to 1 victory over Bridgeport yesterday afternoon. It was about an even thing between Tuckey and Mulrennan, although the former was the steadier.
 The visitors scored the first run in the fourth when Blake tripled to right and scored on Balls single. Portland matched this in the sixth. Tuckey singled but Clemens hit into a fielder's choice. Burns doubled to center and Clemens scored. Burns was out at third on Browns grounder to Whalen. Ball missed Dowelrs g grounder and Sweat was passed, fll- ing the bases. Baker ended it by throwing Tamm out.
 Ball led off with 8. hit in the ninth but a fast double play. Sweat to Lon ergan to Dowell. retired him and Bak- CT. Deininger hit safely past Loner- gan but Whalen bounced one at the Portland short stop who threw to sec ond, Umpire Ennis had a hard day of 1t, both sides protesting vigorously at his decisions.

RED S0x. AND "
 WASHINGTON IN |FISTIC ARGUMENT

Washington. July .1-The Red Sox yesterday afternoon, but the victory was only sideshow compared to the near riot which took place during the third inning when Mcbride, the Wash ington shortstop, threw a bat at Pitcher Mays of the Red Sox, claim ing that Mays tried to hit him pur- posely.
 McBrde was hit on the arm and with Manager Griffith walked to the box for a chat with Mays. Harsh words were uttered by this pair and in a twinkIng both teams were on the field. Catcher Agnew, resenting a re- mark, came to blows with the Wash ington manager and the police arrest ed Agnew, taking him to the nearest station house, where cash bonds were required for Agnew's appearance in court today. Agnew is charged with disorderly conduct and assault. The Washington players claim Me- Bride was justified in hurling his bat at Mays and say they are sorry he did not hit him. Mays, the Griffmen
 claim, boasted that he would "bean" Mcbride before the game started, as these men became mixed up in an ar- gument Thursday.
 Umpire Connolly, banished Manager Carrigan in the first inning, and Um-
 pire Owens not only put Mcbride out
 of the game, but chased Ruth to the
 clubhouse.
 When Agnew swung on Griffith it
 looked as if a free for all fight would
 be in progress, but cooler heads sep arted the blligerents.

HERZOG CLAIMS HAL
 CHASE IS WONDER AND
 GREAT HELP TO CLUB

When Charley Herzog signed Hal Chase for the Reds. many persons who professed to know asserted the one-time Yankee star was too tenn peramental to play for the high strung Marylander, and that he would disrupt the harmony which then ob- tained among the Herzog tribe.
 But the Redland chief, eager to win a pennant for the citadel beyond the Rhine for the first time in the his tory of the National league, did not hesitate. He knew that Hal wasn't through as a major leaguer To be sure, Chase hadn't shown his old form while playing for the Buffeds, but Herzog decided to take a chance on him, and now he is envied by every other manager in the maojrs.
 Hal Chase has come back He has bolstered up the Red clan where it was weakest, in the outfield. He is a tower of strength to the offense as well, and if the Reds succeed in finish ing well up, it is safe to say Chase will have figured prominently in the achievement.
 "Why. of course, Hal and I hit it off we'll together. I don't find any, thing unusual in playing on the same team with Hal. I knew he is a bril- liant ball player and that he Is per- fectly human. He may be tempera- mental, but so am I.''
 "I think Hal Chase is the best first baseman in the game today. We are using him intthe outfeld because Mollwitz's hitting is too valuable an asset to have idle and Hal is a corking outf1elder. Chase is playing the game all the time and for all he is worth and when a man does that he won't have much chance to go wrong with me-"

EYES OF MAJOR
 LEAGUE STARS DO l NOT BECOME DIN

Worcester, July Hook 'em over. kid. Make lem be good!"
 Shouts of encouragement such as these heard daily in every well regu- lated ballyard fall unheeded on the ears of the truly great Sons of Swat Just so long as they can look em over you may rest assured they'll make them be good. 4 Most of these birds refrain from reading during the off-season, thereby sparing their eyes.
 It's in the eye and not the wallop that counts in the national pastime. Some eyes are more durable than oth- CTS. Larry Lajoie possesses such pair, so does Hans Wagner, Terry Turner, Iris Speaker, Jake Daubert Home Run Schulte, Larry Doyle. Heinie Zimmerman, Tyrus Cobb, Joe Jackson and Bill Hinchman.
 There's nothing wrong. however, with Jake Daubert's glims. as a slant at the latest averages will indicate. His heavy cannonading has been a principal factor in the upward climb of the Robins. Few oft.Jake's drives. however, are heftier than singles. For a pair of eyes that have been in use as long as Jakes in the big setthey're
 
 holding out famously. M
 , Heinie Zimmerman is another nota- ble example of the batter who pos- sesses the keen optics. The eccentric third sacker of the Chicago Cubs, when at peace with the world, is one of the greatest natural sluggers of all time. His eyes never have troubled him, but his temperament frequently has caused him to slump. swinging frantically at every old pitch.
 A veteran of the Cubs for 2 cam paigns, Frank Schulte is batting hard. In 1914 and 1915 he was supposed to be through. dropping below .250 each year, but the peach grower is again packing the old swat. NsE
 Nine seasons of big league milling haven't dulled the lamps of Tristan Speaker, who right now is going bet ter than he did in his banner years with the Boston Red Sox. Speakers eyes. sharp as they are at this stage in the pennant proceedings are work ing no better than are those of Tyrus Cobb or Joe Jackson.

Emslie's Empirical Career

Bob Emslie will begin his thirtieth year as an umpire today, as it was on the first of July. 1887, that the dean of diamond arbiters started his career in the International League. For three seasons he remained on the job in that circuit. but in 1890 he joined the umpire staff of the old American Association. The following year he started with the Western League, but in August he was called to officiate in the National League. It will be just quarter of a century next month since the veteran umpire refereed his first game in the parent major league and he has been at it ever since. No other official in baseball history has hung up such a record of continuous fifty-five, he still ranks among the difficult of professions.
 Emslie was born in Guelph, Ont, and is still a loyal Canadian, having resided of late years in St. Thomas. He started his baseball career as a pitcher for tho Harriston and Guelph clubs in his native province and in 1882 he joined the Merritt club of Camden, N. J., famous organization of the old Interestate league, the stars of that team later becoming the nu- cleus of Brooklyn's first big league outfit. Emslie landed with the Bal timore club in the old American As- sociation in 1883 and for a couple of seasons he was the best curve hurler in the majors. In 1885 he went to the Athletics, but his major league career was about over, and in 1886 he was with Toronto. He finished his playing career in 1887, starting the season with Memphis. but he was soon driven from the box and was given job as umpire in the old In- ternational circuit.

ABBOTT BEATEN IN GOLF SEMI FINALS
 BY REGGIE LEWIS

Greenwich, July Reggie Lewis of Wykagyl and Ridgefield, who re- gently won the Westchester golf championship as a member of the Wykagyl club and now seems headed for the Connecticut championship playing from the Ridgefield club, won his way into the final round for the title over the links of the Greenwich Country club yesterday, defeating Bob Abbott of Brooklawn, a former Connecticut and intercollegiate cham pion, 6 up and to play in 36 hole semi-fina1 match. The other semi finalist to qualify for the 36 hole match for the championship today was Samuel Graham of the home club, who defeated w. A. Jackson of Hartford, 2 to 6.
 Lewis did most of his winning in the early part of the morning round. He knew that he had a hard task ahead of him to eliminate the long, driving Abbott, and evidently figured that the sooner he got out into the lead the better it would be for his ul- innate chances for the title. Although the former intercollegiate champion outdrove Lewis with discouraging regularity, the younger player was holing out butts from all parts of the green, and at all times held the upper hand and the lower score. He was up at the turn, with a 39 to a 43 for Abbott. He held this lead over the luncheon period, ending the morn ing round with 78 to an 82 for Ab- bolt. Both players made the ot1twa rd Journey in the afternoon in 39, with Lewis still retaining his comfortable lead of 4 up.

CLEVELAND CLUBS
 LIST OF WOUNDED IS EXCELLENT AuIBI

Cleveland, July If Lee FohL manager of the Indians, knows what it is to alibi he carefully conceals that fact from, the general public. his play CTS and the newspaper men who are travelling with the tribe.
 Some managers try to cover the faults of their players by blaming de- feats to the umpires. Neither does he offer an alibi for his players. He ab- solutely declines to excuse defeat be- cause of accidents, etc. It is because of his system of preparing for the next game as soon as one is won or lost. Consequently he has declined to of fer any alibis during the last 10 days because of the crippled condition of his tribe.
 But here is the Indian list of cas- ualties:
 Pitcher Guy Morton-Out for 10 days with lame arm. Pitcher Ed. Klepfer-Out for two weeks or more with tonsilitis. Pitcher Jim Bagby-Forced to pitch, although having a lame arm. Catcher Steve O'Neil-Spiked in leg by Bob Veach at Detroit. First Baseman Gandil-Badly puff GU AduOs 1OICcu lO CdlCl DcllS WlIn one hand so as to humor the injured member.
 Second Baseman Howard-Badly bruised wrist. result of being hit with ap itched ball.
 Shortstop Chapman-Just regaining batting eye after being out of game for two months. Thrd Baseman Turner - Out of game with twisted knee Outfielder Speaker-Spiked hand, which seriously handicaps his throw ing.

only to see it go to waste because the club behind him couldn't do any hitting.
 Manager Connie Mack of the Ath- letics was the guest of the New Haven club on Boosters day this af- ternoon at Savin Rock. Well, Con nie can give the New Haven owner his sympathy. The gaunt leader Of the Athletics knows what 1t means to have cellar club.
 Red Murphy has been going well as catcher on the Bridgeport club. The former New Haven backstop's hitting has been timely and few bases have been stolen on him. z
 The sporting public is at last getting wise to the coarse work of certain boxing promoters and managers. In- stead of being a financial success the Dillon-Moran bout showed a deficit of about $2,000. The receipts were over S2S,000 but the fighters drew so much money that the packers had to dig down. It is said Moran received s20.- 900 and Dillon SIG, O,000 instead of s25.- 900 and s15,o0o as previously am nounced. Whatever sum they re- ceived it was too much.
 It is said that Steve Manning, re- gently released by Bridgeport, turned down an offer to join Lowell It is cinch they didn't threaten to shower any riches on him for Lowell has prac- tically quit and is trying to get by as cheap1v as possible
 Since McGraw threatened to send Jeff Tesreau to St. Louis the Giant hurler has won two games. Perhaps McGraw will work that bluff on some more. pitchers.

BAKERS INJURED KNEE GETS X RAY
 TREATMENT IN PHILA

Philadelphia, July The Yankees continue to bound merrily along. Don- ovan's pennant chasers handing Con- nie Mack's kids another kick yester- day. Ray Fisher duplicated Bob Shawkey's shutout of yesterday and blanked the down-trodden tailenders ' to 0. The Yankees have now won four in succession on their latest run, and have won 12 games out of their last IS.
 The Athletics, who had quite kick in the first two months of thes eason. have gone completely to seed, and ther crowds have fallen off to practic- ally nothing. Mack tried a new com bination today. benching Lawton Witt, the Stoddard Seminary kid, and nov ed King, former captain of the Massa- chusetts Aggies. to short, while Lawry from Dartmouth. played second. Rowe of Maine remained at third. With such an array of green timber Mack is proving very soft picking. The Athletics have won only two games since Joe Bush shut out New York on the Polo Grounds on June 1.
 Joe tried it here yesterday, but wasn't so successful, as the Tanks banged him freely, ramming out 10 hits, including brace of doubles by Baker and triples by Pipp and Gill hooley. Lee Magee also continued his timely belting and got two more hits, giving him seven for the three games played here.
 Baker, despite his bum prop, laced the ball with his old-time vigor, and no pitcher can stop him these days. Baker visited the University of Penn sylvania yesterday morning to have an X-ray photograph made of his game leg. The physicians said they noticed nothing wrong from its. out side appearance and will show Bake the picture tonight

Harvard Will Lose Seven Oarsmen Who Beat
 Yale on Thames.

New York, July 1-The crusade in Ansurated by the officials of the New York American League baseball club against the habit of certain specta- tors in retaining foul balls knocked into the stands and bleachers is al- ready showing satisfactory results. The example made recently by the ar rest and nning of . few spectators who refused to return balls that came Into their possession has proved sal- tutary and the club is now using fewer halls than was the case before the eff hort was made to curb the practice.
 The ofiicials state that they were Horced to take action as q result of khe number of baseballs lost during levery game played upon the home grounds, It Is estimated that close xo 3,eoe balls are used during the sea- son and at . s1.a5 each they repre- Isented an outlay of more than $S,s00 leach year. A considerable percentage iof these balls are lost in the man Iuer described. While the team is lon the road no difficulty is experience ed in this direction as the parks of lo4her cities are guarded by regular Lpolice and not special officers. such as i1s the case in New York.
 Major league baseball clubs have 6lready started their annual tryout ipf college players who have made |Eood on varsity diamonds this sea- |son. While the scouts of the vari- Ious leagues have been rather liberal In their recommendations it Is not tlikety that many of these youngsters w1ll be able to successfully make the laeap from the college team to the big heague. com mbinations.

Gus Christie, the Milwaukee mid- dleweight, will pass the quartercen- tury mark today. Gus was born in the Cream City on July 1, 1891, and be- gan boxing as an amateur ten years ago, turning professional in 1910. Since then he has engaged in about a hun dred battles and has been victorious in the great majority of them, Jack Dillon, Mike Gibbons and Les Darcy, the Australian phenom. being the only fighters to show any marked superior ity over the German-American bat UaE.
