Giants and Cubs.

The 1916 episode of the Giants and the Cubs shows well enough the eternal fickleness of the dope
 Before the campaign opened the Giants were rated as ready for a good, fast start. They had added four Fed stars of proved merit in Kauff, Roush, Rariden and Anderson. They had gathered a, punch of note in their attack and the pitching was supposed to be much improved. On the other wing the Cubs looked to be out at sea. They had lost seven consecutive exhibition games to the Phillies and had been trimmed by other clubs. After winning their first game on the schedule they dropped three in a row to the Reds and settled abruptly into last place.
 After Which
 Then the turn followed Before any one knew what it was about the Cubs won seven games in a row and the Giants lost seven in a stretch. Before any one could get set for the big shock the Cubs were up giving battle with the leaders, with the Giants so deeply imbedded in the goo that nothing short of dynamite can lift them out for many days at least
 The entire situation had been re- versed in less than fortnight, show ing what it means to offer an early April opinion on what is to follow.
 For the Future.
 As to what the Cubs and Giants in- tend to do in the future we are frank to say that we don't know. The change came from this: The Cubs began to get fine pitching from Nc Connell, Hendrix, Vaughn and Laven-

New York, May "A resolution asking for fifteen days grace to get down to the twenty man limit having been discountenanced by the powers that be in the National League, John McGraw yesterday hastened to pare his roster of Giant actives.

Pittsburgh May 2-The street cIr strike is threatening baseball very seriously here. President Barney Dreyfuss of the Pirates announced last night that unless there is a set clement of the strike by tomorrow night he would not open the game at Forbes Field on Wednesday, when the Cubs are scheduled to appear here. He said the first three games at least would be postponed, and if the jitney bus service is in good shape by Saturday they might play the fourth, otherwise they would not.

The men rowed four miles up stream from the boathouse and back, the second crew showing slightly faster than the first. They returned to New Haven after their practice.

Boston, May 2--At last the Braves have triumphed over the Phillies. a score of to 2 giving them their first victory over the pennant winners this year. Rudolph had the heavy hitters swinging wildly, while the Braves pounded Mayors curves in timely fashion. With the sacks crowded in the first inning and none out defensive play held Moran's men to one run. Luderus juggled throw in the locals half and Mayer walked three men, forcing Maranville to score. The Rabbit doubled in the second and came home on Evers' sin gle. Four solid singles during the fifth finished the visitors, who grabbed their final tally on a double and two put outs. Manager Moran and Catcher Burns were banished from the grounds by Rigler because they questioned his judgment too closely. The score:

der, while the Giants pitching has never started, and when it has made motions in the right direction mottled support did the rest. Any ball club with a fair attack that gets good pitching will move briskly along. If the Cub staff continues Tinker has enough power in his attack to finish high.
 With the Giants it is still a matter of pitching. Cold weather has b1 oken the condition of McGraw's s staff, and he has so far been unable to get one winning pitcher, much less a winning staff. And yet the stuff is still there for first-class work From Tesreau, Anderson, Perritt, Stroud, Benton, Palmero and Schupp he should be able in time to get at least three men who can win. And later on, when the sun gets warmer there is still the lingering hope that Christy Mathewson may reappear with his ancient. wares and do some life saving.
 McGraw's Battle
 The present occasion is the gloomiest in McGraws history Last season, after having won five pen nants. he finished last.
 This season he had long been bent upon wiping out the memory of that tailend year. He believed he had a Tall club that could make winning warfare on the rest of the tribe But injuries to Lobert and Hunter left a big gap at third, the rest of the in field fell down in it's attack and the pitching went up a f1ue
 He has tried in vain to plug that gap at third. McKechnie could field we'll enough, but his batting was practically nit, null and void.
 On the Warpath
 McGraw has no intention of spend ing another year in last place if he has to employ dynamite He still has many of the ingredients of a fine club the best outfield in the league, power in attack and a good catching staff. In all save ali instance or so every game has been lost by one run where the battling was practically even all the way. The Giant leader still believes he will get good pitch ing when warmer weather comes to stay. If he does he has the run making qualities in his club to hold his own. But this part of it can't be determined until the staff has had a good chance to get in shape.

Captain KiDiry's Pill Founders Will Meet Rivals Next Saturday

The New Britain High school base ance on it's schedule this week, the first being tomorrow afternoon at Walnut Hill park, when Captain Kin iry's men will stack up against the fast South Manchester aggregation. The game will afford the hard hitters an opportunity of keeping their bat ting eyes in shape for the big game of the season. which takes place Satur- day afternoon in Hartford, when the ancient foes of the locals, the H. P. H. $. nine will be tackled on the Trinity diamond
 Interest on Gain.
 Baseball which for several years seemed to be on the wane at the local intellectual institution, is enjoying a popular comeback this season, and the interest which is being evinced in the club is being repaid by a stellar brand of ball playing by Captain kiniry's llustling aggregation. The team at it's present gate is putting up one of the strongest games of any school in the state and it is the consensus of opin- ion that the nine is one of the fastest and most even balanced teams that has ever represented the school.
 A Dandy Infcld
 The infield as it is constituted at present, is as brilliant a galaxy of speedy youngsters as can be selected in any city in the state. At first base Hannon is putting up a stellar brand of baseball and his hitting has been conspicuously timely throughout the season. kopf who is doing the guard ing at the keystone station possesses much of the style that has made an other member of the family a "big leaguer' his work with the willow in recent games being very timely. Jim my Grove now considered a veteran is putting up the fastest game of his career. Jimmy played last year at second base, but the change to the dig zy corner has improved his work fifty per cent. While never a. hard clouter, Grove has picked up considerably with the willow this season and many of his hits have been for extra base trips

GIANTS BAT HARD
 BUT FAIL TO WIN
McGraW's Hirelings Lose Ninth
 Straight Game

New York, May 2-The Giants went on hitting yesterday-and losing. They gathered twelve hits off two ancients, Fucker and Coombs of the Brooklyns, but didn't gather enough runs to win. The Brooklyns beat them. to 5, and were more successful in punching hits--they made ten themselves-than the i'll starred Giants.
 Hits concentrated more compactly by the Dodgers and the fact that in the thick of two rallies the Giants hammered into double plays were the leading reasons why the Brook lyns, with two less safeties, won the game. One alien jolt was home run by Stengel It landed against the right field grand stand of Brush Stadium and flew back, and it was made with two men on bases. The score:
