Buxton. local champion, got propltlous
start on Corkran, the Baltimorean, when he
drove a ball right down the middle and
opened up the green for an easy four, which
won the hole Corkran was out of bounds
on his second and though he laid his fourth
dead, il did not help.
Corkran was badly ratified on the tee
at the second and put a long screamer out
of bounds But his next drive was yards
ahead of Buxton and he was safe on his
brassie. Buxton wasted a shot from a
trap and another after he had overap-
preached They were all-quare.
Corkran. one OF the longest hltters playing
hereabouts. was Off the line and Buxton be-
came up going to the fifth. On the sixth
Corkran crept level and took lead on the
pitch dead for a bird 2, he was only down
at the turn. Buxton was 2.up against at

CINCINNATI. o.. July 27-(Spe-
ciaD -Christy Mathewson's career as
manager Of the Cincinnati Reds will
interest fans everywhere. One Of the
most popular players the game has
known is taking one Of the most I'M
popular Jobs. If Matty is able to
bring harmony and success into the
Cincinnati situation he will have add
ed greatly to laurels that already are
many
In spite of the fact that Cincinnati
is one of the best baseball towns in
the country there has always been
some sort of d blight on baseball
here. Some OF the best and brainiest
men in the business have tried to put
the proper life into the Reds and
bring them through the season near
the top of the race, but few If any
OF them have succeeded Far back
in the earliest history Of the game
there was time when the Cincinnati
"Redlegs" were thought to be world
beaters, but the oldest settler can
scarcely remember that now.
Matty is ambitious to build a pen
nant contender out OF the Reds and
believes that he can do IT, After

Left to right: Rousch, Matty and McKcchnla

Matty is most likely to be free Of
this. He is too big man to be
leased and wheedled.
There is good material in CincY to
work with. Rousch and McKechnie,
who have gone to the Reds with
Matty. are valuable players, Rousch
being one of the most brilliant young
outfelders in the game, and Nc
Kechnie. an inielder Of thorough big
league class, not brilliant but always
dependable.
Heinie Groh is as good an infslder
as there is in the league; Hal Chase
is still the best of first basemen, and
Bob Fisher is a fast shortstop and
real hitter. Ivy Wingo is better than
the average big league backstop and
Griffith and Neale are fast young out
Gelders. It is not team Of hasbeens
or second-raters. Fred Toney, one OF
the games best twirlers, heads a list
OF pitchers that with good support
and hitting can hold their own with
any team in the league. Matty seems
to have the proper chance in making
his deput and fans everywhere are
glad to offer their best wishes. But
especially the fans Of Cincinnati.

SHOWING CHANGE IN TIMES
the After-Dinner Speaker Are
Somewhat interesting.

James C. Cleary, the well-known
New York lawyer and after-dinner
speaker, while speaking at a banquet
of hotel men in Boston, recently, re-
ferred to the "after-dinner speech" in
this wise:
Il had occasion not long ago to con-
duct some little research into the orig
In, history, cause and effect of the
after-dinner speech and | was some
what surprised to find that during the
feudal days of England and also in
Rome in the reign of Nero the object
and purpose of the after-dinner speech
were entirely different from what they
are today. In those days it was con-
sidered and used exclusively as a.
barometer to indicate the mental and
physical condition of the speaker. In
other words, If the speaker, after
spending an hour or perhaps several
hours at the festal board, with convi-
vial and other spirits, could then stand
upon his feet and talk intelligently, or
even coherently, he was considered
to have demonstrated staying quail
ties Of an exceptionally high order.
In the course of time, however, the
purpose of the after-dinner speech un-
derwent a radical change, and now,
instead of being used to indicate the
condition of the speaker it has be-
come test of the physical endurance
Of the audience"
