Philadelphia. May THE Yankees
took terrible revenge against the Atm
letics for former humiliatlons at the
hands Of the tailenders, when they
hammered out a TO victory at ShlDe
Park this afternoon.
But the laugh was not all IN Dono-
vans favor. The jinx that has pursued
the club these dozen years. and ruined
it completely in 1916. got in his first
deadly blow of the season to-day. Lit
tie Frank Gilhooley, supposedly sec
end Willie Kecler, suffered broken
collarbone in going after Mclnnis's line
drive in the second inning. Such, al
least. was the diagnosis Of a local
physician.
Gilhooley was hurried away to St
Vincent's Hospital. New York, where
he will undergo an X-ray examination
Immediately. At any event. his. ser.
vices will be lost for several weeks, II
not for the remainder of the season.
Just Getting in Trim
Donovan and the rest of the Yankees
are hoping that Gilhooley's injury Is
! not so bad as reported, for Frank was

made him a sensation before his ankle
was broken last July 3. Meanwhile

Hendryx Gets Chance
Gilhooley was injured trying TO save
Mogridge's face in the second inning.
| The Yankee southpaw handed a pass
to Strunk in this inning. Thrasher
sacrificed. Gilhooley fell after a
desperate leap to head McInnis's liner.

threw home McInnis raced on to third
base. Schang singled to centre, scoring
/ Stufry; Falkenberg skied to HendryX.
The Yankees sewed up the combat IN
the third, and after two were out, at
that. Falkenberg famed Nunamaker
and tossed out Mogridge. Then Hend-
ryx singled to right High walked ana

centre. Trying to catch Malsel OF hrst
Falkenberg threw badly. On this error
Hendrix scored and Miller took third.
Maisel made a delayed steal of second.
Pipp walked, filling the bases again.
Baker hit TO McInnis and was safe
when Falkenberg muffed Stufy's toss.
On this second bobble High and Maisel
scored. while Pipp went on to third.
Miller drove a home run into the
bleachers. scoring Pipp and Baker
ahead of him.
Each side got two runs in the fourth
though New York's two came about as
cheaply as the other half dozen. Nuna-
maker singled, but was forced by Mog-
ridge. Hendryx got two bases on
Bates's bad throw, Mogridge stopping
at third. High beat a bunt on the
squeeze" play which scored Mogridge.
Hendrix counted on Maise's grounder
that forced High. In the second hall
Thrasher and Bates, who singled, Doth
tailed on Wally Schang's triple.
The Yankees last run came IN the
ninth. the result of another tumble by
Bates. Hendryx, who got the life,
worked around 10 third on Highs sacri-
flee and a wild pitch. MaisePs triple
scored him. After Pipp walked Frank
Baker hit into double play.
