One Days Slip.

There was a time not so very many years ago that a golf or tennls cnahn- rion could slip here and there pump into an of-day, and still keep on hls way
 But that day has passed. One day S s1ip now means banishment for a wear. One day off form is almost sure +o result in a beating for there are too many good ones to permit breathing spell along the route.
 There was a time when a cham ,.onship was quite lot of fun. But inc fun has now been boiled out by ona steamy competition after another, and no chance to pause.
 "A golf championship said Jerry Travis at Detroit last year, lis now tho hardest weeks work I know of. If used to be a canter mixed up with few dashes. Now it is a six-day sprint for the entry that wins.' And the same thing goes for Forest Hills this week. With Church, Mclaughlin, Johnston, Kuma gae, Behr and Murray a1l in one section, where is there any rest for the weary in defeat?
 Boston has drawn only one world series vacation since 1911 And it hegins to look as if she would be forced to face another carnival this fall. despite any great abhorrence she might feel about the matter.
 So far only 896 non-com batants have desired to know what golfer Is going to win at Merton. We'll answer that query the second some one in forms us definitely what two clubs will be in the next world series and at precisely what moment the Euro pean war will end.
 If the Braves finish first in the Ma tional league, Percy Haughton won't have anything to do through October beyond fifteen or sixteen hours a day He won't have anything to look after but a champion ball club and a foot ball team that has lost Ned Mahan.
 The Red Sox,' says an exchange, haven't anything but a great pitching staff" Which recalls again the old one about the sad case of John D. Rockefeller having practically nothing but $500, 100000.

CHURCH DEFEATS KUMAGAE
Fears of Tennis Championship Going to Japan Are ObIitcrated By Former Princeton Star.

Forest Hills, l.. l., Aug. 31.-Tennis followers may rest easy on one ques- ton. There is no danger of the na- :ional singles championship going to he war-of shores of Japan. The lit
 lie son of Nippon, Ichiya Kumagae, whose path in this country has been paved with frequent successes-in- cludinG the defeat of William M. Johnston in the Newport invitation tournament-himse tasted of defeat yesterday in the second round of the Championship tournament on the courts of the West Side Tennis club of Forest Hills. It was George M. Church who undermined the fortunes of the willy Jap and sent him tumb- ling in straight sets Dy the score of G-3, G-3, G-1. Not since the Oriental came to this country, several

IanagerS Beginning to Worry Over Impending Trouble

New York, Aug. 21.-In anticipa @on of the impending railroad strike baseball managers have begun to Sorry about how the seasons sched #le will be played out The manage Rents of the Detroit and the New ork Americans, now battling in this Aity, last evening started to make s.lans to insure the playing of their re- Hnaining games in the event of tie #le in transportation.
 As far as the intersectional games Ire concerned, the baseball men arc bot worrying, because jumps between ities in the west and between eastern H Hsities can be made by automobile, zrClley. or in some cases, by boat, but In the middle of September, when the Aastern clubs have to go west in the American league and the western Aiubs of the National league como East, serious problem may confront he baseball people.
 Manager Hughie Jennings of the Retroits stated last night that his El6b would be home before Septem- Eer 4, when the strike may be called. ET1d all it's games are to be played
 
 Either by water route or by automo- pile
 The Yankees will play a double peader here on Labor Day with Bos- -on, and on the following day they Ire due in Washington. Captain Huston of the Yankees said last Eight that the trip to Washington might be made by water, and that Ehen his club goes west to open at Detroit on September 13 the trip is likely to be made by water up the Hudson, then by auto to the Lakes.
 The serious aspect of the situation s that the seasons baseball schedule nay have to be set back at least nonth. The engagements now booked sannot be kept on the listed dates in he event of a railroad strike, as travelling by water routes will con- 'ume so much time that it will be ate in October before the schedule an be played out.

An Entire Pitching Staff.

You have heard of pitchers before who have won thirty or forty games. Rut how often have you heard of one pitcher turning in over half the V1c- tories rung up by an entire club through an entire season?
 Not very often. We recall no case at this writing, but Bush has this Op- nortunity ahead. So far he has won fourteen games, or more than the rest If the staff put together. And in winning these games Bush was called unon to use an abnormal amount of stuff as the Mackian record might in diCate.
 The fact that he was able to turn in a. nO-hit game is merely crOWning incident to a wonderful year all the more wonderful when you figure what the Mackmen have done with other eood pitchers in the box. The work Rush has done this season, if it had heen used for a first division club, would have made him the leading winner in the American league-on a mar with Alexander in the National.
 As it is, only eight other pitchers have won more games, and these have all been with clubs well up in the race.

PROS ARE BEATEN AGAIN.

The last fond hope entertained by tAe professional men's baseball team, that the disastrous season of 1916 might be made fruitful with at least one victory, was dashed on the rocks yesterday afternoon, when a team composed of clerks walloped Judge Mangan's pets to the tune of a to 2 score at St. Mary's playgrounds. An Gerson and Ringrose were in the points for the victors while Morgan and O'Brien worked for the losers. Details of the contest are somewhat meagTe.

Cobb Shows His Speed.

New York, Aug. 31.-Just by way of variety, the Yankees took a tumble out of the Detroits yesterday at the Polo Grounds by the sum of 5 to 2. Messrs. Ty Cobb, Sam Crawford, and Hughey Jennings appeared to be a little indispOsed and therefore the tally of the pastime didn't go their way. MT. Cobb showed his skill at making base hits where another play CT would only get a sacrifice. He got three yesterday, all of them being in field taps. Ty just gets hits because he has the speed. You can't beat him.
 It is a good sight for baseball eyes to see Sam Crawford in the game The last time the Jungaleers visited this burg MT. Crawford was sojourning on the bench. Now he is back in the game, swinging with all the grace and precision of a perfectly manipulated drawbridge. Crawford has been swinging at curve balls thus ever so many years and he still does it better than most of the youngsters.
 Sam didn't get any hits yesterday save one, and that was because Bob Shawkey was pitching very fine ball The three hits that Cobb got reflect no discredit on Shawkey simply be- cause the Georgia Gem purely and simply outpaced the ball.
 He is a great little ball plaver- this Cobb-he is great because he is always one thought ahead of the op- position. Roger Peckinpaugh can toss a ball over to first as fast as any of them, and yet Ty beat one of Peck's losses yesterday. The score:
 r. h. e. New York ...... 14OO0O0x-5 il 1 Detroit ........ OO100100O-2 8 8
 Batteries: Shawkey and Nunamak- CT; James, Roland, Cunningham and Spencer and Mckee.

Washington, Aug. 31.-Earl Ting ling, the Minneapolis c1ub's southpaw pitcher, will be member of the Washingtons next spring. Manager Griffith has convinced himself that a brainy left handler, even though he does not have extraordinary speed or curves, can be successful in the American league, where left handed hitters prevail, and Yingling is a pitcher of great ability, fast on his feet and one of the best hitters in the

Red Sox TVirler Accomplishes
 Trick Yesterday Against Browns

Boston, Aug. 31.-Dutch Leonard, who was knocked out of the box by St. Louis in the first game of yesterdays s double-header, came back yesterday and held the Browns without a hit or run, while Boston scored four runs off Weilman. Two men reached first base, but neither got to second. In the eighth inning Leonard passed Severeid, and in the ninth he gave a base on balls to Hartley, who batted for Weilman.
 Yesterdays no-hit, no-run game was the second to the credit of the Red SOX this season. George Foster turned the trick against New York last June. An examination of Captain Barry's hand today disclosed that a bone on the back of his right hand was frac- tured and that he would be out of the game probably for four weeks. The score:
 r. h. e. Boston ........ O200O2OOx-4 10 o St. Louis ....... 0000000OO-O 0 Batteries: Leonard and Carrigan; Weilman and Severeid.

Concerning Fred Nerkle.

Wherever Fred Merkle finishes, there is always this one fact to fall hack on that stamps him as marvel:
 Just eight years ago he came through with a play that cost his club the championship.
 At that moment and long thereafter he was the most bitterly assailed ball player in the span of the game.
 He was counted out beyond all re- pair-a total loss, with his career over.
 But since that date Merkle has riayed in over 1000 games with the same club, and has been a vital fac tor in three pennant years.
 He stood the gaff as no other player has ever stood it. Which is some thing beyond being even one of the great players of the game

A few days ago. we figured that Ed Ward Plank, the Gettysburg Guide, was the leading hero of the 1916 cam raign.
 We are beginning to indulge in a faint gray hunch that we were wrong. Plank is one of the games wonders, marvel beyond all debate. But we doubt very much if even Plank has quite reached the heroic heights at tained by Joc Bush, who has come as close to a Miracle season as any pitcher we have ever known.

A TABLET SUITABLY INSCRIBED,
PRESENTED TO ARDMORE BY
GEORGE WILLIAMS OF EDMOND.
FUNDS GIVEN BY PUPILS.

During the chapel exercises OF the
Ardmore High School Friday morn
ing, George Williams OF the Central
State Normal of Edmond and Dr.. c. c.
Weith, p. d. Maxwell, and Russell
Brown of this City, appeared as a
committee representing number of
persons who contributed funds for the
purchase of a monument to Chas. Ev-
ans, and presented it to the school.
The speech OF presentation was made
by Prof Williams of Edmond, and the
speech of acceptance was made by
c. W. Richards, superintendent of the
schools. p. d. Maxwell also made a
few well chosen remarks on the benefi-
cent influence of the schools and on
the unselfishness of the faculty in its
endeayor to build a still better system.
The speech of Supt. Richards is said
to have been the most eloquent he has
ever delivered, and the school has
many times been inspired by his elo-
.Quence.
In presenting the tablet Prof. Will
liams said:

gave with joy toward placing in the
Ardmore High School building for
which he worked so well, a plain tab
let which might not only serve to eX-
press the devotion which hundreds
and thousands of ArdmOreites hold for
him, but would serve to prove that the
American public school children are
not ungrateful to faithful teachers.
