Lowe put in a hard days work yester-
day for this battle, and claims to feel
ready to give the best battle that the
local fans have ever witnessed of him.

Train. the local middleweight Young
Thomas. and Buddy Ray, and each
claim the veteran is going at top speed.
Two other ten round bouts are also

defeated every opponent that the Ard
more officials have booked against him.

in The fight game in this vicinity. AS a
big sidebet has also been made on the re-
suit of this issue between Urain and
Moran, the fans are awaiting anxiously
for the gong to ring to set these boys into
action

the welterweight class in his bouts around
Philadelphia. will meet Turk Smith a To-

prominence recently. The show will open
with four-rounder between Jimmy Con-
roy, the local featherweight. and Benny

Boxing experts throughout the entire
country seem a little surprised that
Freddy Welsh, the worlds lightweight
champion, has come from under his shell
and really means business in the fighting
line. Welsh has been accused of every
thing by the leading critics for not in
dulging in a finished battle. but rumor
is afioat in Manhattan that the dancing
master Is preparing for a finished affair
and quite a number of ten-round bouts
have been arranged by his Manager.
Harry Pollock.
Pollock in arranging bouts desires to
name the referee. and when Match
maker Freeman. of the Maryland Club.
signed Welsh for the ten-round battle
with Lowe for Thursday night, he asked
Pollock if he desired to name the official
Pollock Immediately demanded p. f.
OConnor, the well-known local referee,
who is the official referee of the Ard
more Club. As no settlement has been
made on whether a decision will be rem
dered Tommy Lowe, the local pride, has
not protested against O'Connor working
as the third man in the ring, and since
Tommy really believes that he has a
chance TO gain the lightweight crown, it
Is not likely that protest will be heard
from him on this issue.

Mcbride Hits In Pinch

George Mcbride had a tough time Of It
today. almost every ball knocked to him
coming on a bad hop, but McBrides
timely single in the ninth helped the
Griffmen knot the count and the veteran
should not be censured for a bad day in
the field.
Bush opened the game with a grounder
which ordinarily would have been easy
picking for Mcbride. Capt. Mac fumbled
and the little shortstop was safe. Wits
sacrifice put Bush on second. Mcbride
tossed out Cobb, Bush moving down to
third on the out. Veach walked and
stole. Heilman unbuckled a triple to left
center. clearing the bases. Burns groun-
er to Mcbride ended the inning. Had
Captain Mac been able to retire Bush,
the first man up, the Tigers would not
have scored.
The Nationals got one OF these two runs
back In the second inning, when with
one down Shanks tripled to right center
and crossed the plate on Henry's long
fly to Veach.
In order to end the inning, so that
II possible the Tigers would be retired
In order during the second half. Ron
ieau purposely allowed himself to be
the victim of a play when Williams
sent Cobb a short fly. Had GriH
lasted ten minutes and the sun come
out bright. he would never have in
structed Rondeau to be put out. The
Tigers forged ahead one run in the
final half of the eighth. and Veach
got credit for turning the trick. Two
were down when Veach walloped the
ball to deep center. The ball landed
a few feet outside the ropes and
bounded into the stands.
Manager Griffith and his players
protested loudly, claiming that ground
rules permitting a hit into the crowd
to go for two bases had been estab-
lished early in the afternoon. but Con-
molly allowed Veach a home run.
In the Nationals half of the ninth
Hamilton was driven from the slab and
the score once more tied. Shanks drew
a walk for a starter. Henry hunted and
Shanks was turned back at second base.
Moeller was substituted as a runner for
Henry and when Mcbride laced a single
over Bush's head, Moeller pulled up at
third and Mcbride went to second.
Right here Hamilton was yanked and in
walked George Dauss. 1t was Gallia' s
turn at bat, but Griff sent Jameson to
The plate and the youngster drove the
ball to deep right field for a long fly,
Moeller scoring on the out. The Tigers
won the game in the final half of the
ninth with Sam Rice in the box Young
died on a long fly to centerfield. Kava-
aaUgh, pinch hitting for Stanage, ground
ID to Foster, who fumbled and on the

Neach and Dauss were the Detroit

his team in the lead. After the Nationals

EARL HAMILTON IN FORM
By WILLIAM PEEyr.

Detroit, Mich, June 4.-Twice in two
days have the Griffmen been stung by
ninth-inning rallies on the part of the
Jungaleers of this thriving village. The
Tigers today shifted at a tie score in
the ninth and proceeded to put over the
run needed to win. The final count was
I to g.
II these ninth-inning rallies continue
Manager Griffith will soon be a fit sub
ject for a lunatic asylum. Today's bat
tie fairly bristled with features. 1t was
a game which kept the spectators jump
ing to their feet time and time again
one Of those see-saw struggles with first
one team having the advantage and then
the other.
On hand to cheer the Tigers was a
crowd Of nearly 1900 fans, typical De-
trOit Sunday gathering. Ropes were
stretched from the flag pole in center
field to the right field pavilion in order
to accommodate the overflow. There were
so many unusual incidents attendant
that space prohibits going into detail.
The alibi that the Griffmen should have
won is going to be discarded right here.
II is true that our boys outbatted the
home flock, but opportunities were not
grasped while the grasping was good, and
hits failed to materialize when needed
the most.
