JUDGES LITTLE BUNT
STARTS YANKS DEFEAT
Opens Way for Grifmen's Victory
Over Caldwell.

Joe Judges unexpected bunt, when
two were down in the eigE'h frame
and the score tied at one tally for
each team, brought about the defeat
OF the Yankees at Georgia avenue
Yesterday and allowed ''Bologony'
Shaw to hang UP his second victory
Of the season. The final count was
3 to 1.
Ray Caldwell was careering along
like a U-boat on a hunt for ferocious
hospital ships. He was sinking such
noble craft as Eddie Foster. Zeb
Milan, Sam Rice, and Ray Morgan all
down the line until that eighth in
ming. Then a shell from Joe Judges
one-pounder started things and al
lowed Foster and Milan to put across
a couple of 40-centimeter shells that
swamped the U-boat. Woof. woof!
Judge dropped a perfect bunt in
front Of Baker and beat II out. Fos-
ter collided with a double to right
center. scoring Judge and putting
the home boys in front. Milan wal
loped a sweet single to left, scoring
the midget. That's all, except that
Jim Shaw pitched fine ball an
everything.
Ainsmith's walk, Shaw's sacrifice,
and Judges double to left counted
for the home boys first run.
High scored the Yankees run when
he singled in the sixth, stole and flew
over on Maisel's blow.

BOB THAYER'S GOSSIP
ON SPORTING MATTERS

One OF the most striking evidences
that bowling has been elevated from
an almost strictly gambling proposi-
tion to a healthy pastime is seen in
the District Duckpin Associations &C
tion in arranging a special night for
women in its tournament being con
Quoted at the Grand Central. The
fact that enough women have become
interested in the game to make that
special night possible is a strong in
dication of the cleanliness with which
bowling is being conducted in Wash
inEton. a campaign is being wsged
throughout the country TO eliminate
cheap, dirty pool" rooms and bowl
ing alleys that so long have been a
discredit to the pastimes, and the Ma
tional Capital IL one Of the foremost
cities in the work.
II IS to laugh that Ban johnson,
who rules his own league-and mos
of baseball as well-with an iron
hand, comes to Washington and dis
covers himself unable to do much OF
anything. II he had a poor cause to
plead, we should grin with glee. But,
as il happens, he is trying to main
tain baseball as a national profes-
sional sport in the face of most
threatening conditions. Boxing,
horse racing, and wrestling. all pro-
fessional sports. have not been threat
ened with excessive taxation. Why
should baseball be singled out as the
one sport to be driven from the field?
That Is Ban Johnson's plea, and it is
a good one.
Jim Corbett was once worlds
heavyweight champion. He Is now
an actor. very likely a member OF the
White Rats. Recently a New York
newspaper rendered him a proposition
whereby he was to lend his name to
a column daily in which "he" would
tell OF his experiences and also, on
the side, give healthful hints to as
piring athletes. OF course, every
body should know that Jim never has
written a line OF this junk. So long
as he was describing boxing, or tell

is said to consist of fan similar
to a 16-inch electric fan. 1t has a
spring which winds the fan up like
an ordinary clock and this furnish
es the motor power for running
the fan for "a hours. The new
fan can be manufactured much
cheaper than the electric fan, it if
claimed, it runs at the same speed

CHECKS A SCHEME TO
DISCRIMINATE

A Bill was introduced in the
House on March s, to amend Sec
tions 10, II and twelve of an Act
to regulate the Civil Service of
the state of Illinois which was
approved in 1905, for the purpose
of making it possible for all ap-
pointing officers to. have submitted
to them three names from the
Civil Service Commission with au-
thority to select Whichever one of
the three that might be preferred.
This, as can be seen, would give
opportunity for them to reject any
colored person named without
violating the Civil Service law.
Representative Benz. f. Lucas
was on the job however and saw
the far reaching possibilities of
such a measure and set about to
defeat it. When the Bill was call
ed up this week for passage he
had strength enough to effect its
defeat.
The first provision of the pro-
posed bill was as follows;
Section 10-Whenever a position
classified under this Act is to be
filled, the appointing officer shall
make agrequisition'upon said Com
mission and the commission shall
certify to him the names and ad-
dresses of the three highest upon
the register of eligibles for said
position, except chat in case of la
borers, when a choice by competi-
tion is impracticable, said com
mission may provide its rules that
the selection shall be made by lot
from among those candidates
proved fit by examination. The
appointing officer shall notify the
commission of each position to be
filled separately and shall fill such
position by the appointment OF
one of the three certified to him
by the said commission therefore.
