SHAWKEY'S GREAT PITCHING DEFEATS
 WHITE SOX TEAM

Chicago. July 29-The White Sox were meek and harmless for eight innings yesterday. In the ninth they rebelled against the thraldom of Shawkey's fine pitching, tried to throw off the yoke, and in short or der became a menace to New York's peace of mind and well-being. They were called to order in time, how ever. Their eleventh-h hour scoring jamboree was shipped off when Shaw key. who was wavering summoned his reserve strength, stdpped their rally half way to fruition, and pitched the crippled but Ndauntless Tanks to another victory. Thesscore was to 8.
 The victory gave the Yankees an even break for the series, and as the White Sox are supposed to be squirting just now, that wouldn't be a bad performance for the New Workers even if they had been able to mar shal their full strength for the bat ties.
 Shawkey, was careful and caiculat- ing, and went about his work with conspicuous skill, although with a considerable expenditure of energy. He applied himself carefully to every batsman, and on such "a hot day the physical and mental strain of that sort of pitching was no insignificant item. Except for a. base on ballsi and he gave that because he dfdnst choose to give Eddie Collins good ball to bang at -Shawkey's pitching in the first seven innings was practi- cally perfect
 y The first hostile hit was made in the eighth. and in the ninth Shawkey was ransacked freely. Four hits and an error let in three runs before an out had been encompassed, but here Shawkeyl pulled himself together and stopped the foray. It was peculiar game he pitched-invulnerab for eight innings, then decided weaken ing. then a quick, strong recovery.
 Shawkey also did we'll with the bat So did Nunamaker. who uade the first move in two scoring rallies and sof did Homer Miller, the outfielder who was recalled from Baltimore to patch up a shaky outfield His reap pearance in select circles was gar landed with success. He gave sta bility and speed to the outfield which it lacked without regular centre fielder, and he was a factor as an of fensive agent, He was up five times, walked once, made three hits, stole a base. andi batted in two runs It was his birthday, which may have had something to do with it. Sum- rise this morning brought Miller to the twenty-eighth milestone.

WHEELER GETS IN
 EKWANOK FINALS

Nate Wheeler, the Brooklyn golfer, got into the finals at Manchester, Vt. today, by his victory yesterday over Reginald Worthington of the PhiladeI- phia Cricket club. He beat Worth ington 4 and 3. In the third round Wheeler cleaned up Parker Whitte- more of Boston 4 and 3. Marston. Wheeler's opponent in the finals, is one of the country's crack players and Wheeler will have to extend himself to win. Marston beat Parker Seeley of Brooklawn in this tournament last year.

Kaun'S Weakness.

Although Benny Kauff has made some timely hits in recent games, New York critics have been proclaimlne that his general showing so far this season has been disappointing. They say he is batting far below what he claimed he woult do when he was boosting himself during the winter. The New York Mail says the pitch CTS have discovered Benny's weakness. high ones on the outside. They are feeding him that kind as much as | possible. That was the same weak ness Benny had when he played in the old Eastern association. Sam Mc- Lean, who pitched for Waterbury in those days, could make Benny look foolish by keeping them high on the outside. Benny would kill low ball but Mclean often boasted that Kauff couldn't get hit off him.
