MCBRIDE HOLDS RECORD
AFTER TIFF WITH UMPIRE
Becomes First Grifman to Be
Sent to Showers.

George Mcbride today. holds the
record.
George Mcbride, usually a calm per
son, grew wrsthy yesterday. Brick"
Owens has a distinct and well-culti-
waited antipathy toward wrathy per
sons and so he banished the Grifmen's
captain to the showers.
George Mcbride today holds the rec
ord OF being the first Griffman to be
elected from a game this season.
Mac appeared at the plate in the
eighth with Morgan on first through
Scotts poor peg. The champions had
just scored and Mac was most anxious
to bring the tying tally over for his
team. But Owens wouldn't let him.
Ruth's fast ball was leaping and
darting about like a tongue OF flame,
and when Mac failed to swing. Owens
called strikes. On the second one
Mac complained. On the third. which
ended his turn at the bat, he fairly
roared.
And out Of the game he went. then
and there.
So that's how George happened to
make his record.

CAMDEN P0LOISTS WIN
Lucky to Defeat Washington Team
For Trophy.

Luck played too important a factor
in the final match for the Washing.

Camden Magpies won the trophy
from the crack Washington four.
The visitors were conceded a Ave

On numerous occasions the Washing

on the visitors set the Washington
players another point from their win
and the handicap proved too much.
The Washington men rode brilliant
ly and lost only because IL was not
their day to win. Hugh Legare and
Kent Legare were unable TO main
tain their usual form, and to this ii
laid the loss OF the match. Hoppin

JOHNSONS ANXIETY Is
COSTLY IN THE PINCH
Tries to Field Bunt and Cuts
Fateem From Il.

Walter Johnson's anxiety to do all
possible around the inheld gave the
worlds champion Red Sox their
opportunity, which they promptly
proceeded to Improve.
The Coffeyville Cyclone was giving
the champions q tough tight Two
hits had been made OF his speed and
curves without avail when the eighth
inning came along. Then things hap
pened with q vengeance.
Some say today that Hank Shanks
failed to play Scott's sizzler correct
Iy. Be that as IL may, the Boston
shortstop went to second on a hot
one to left. This brought up Chef
Thomas, a good swatter, especially
in pinches.
The play was for Thomas to sacri-
fee Scott to third and put up the
scoring 20 Ruth and Hooper. So the
big backstop carefully dropped one
toward third base. 1t was intended
to bring a froglike hop from Foster,
a lightning peg to Gharrity,and
dead man at the first corner, Scott
reaching third.
Scott got to third safely enough.
The froglike hop came through
but Thomas was credited with a
bingle. All because OF Walters ear
nestness.
johnson made an effort to field the
ball himself. He may have intended
shooting 1t to Foster, cutting on
Scott. Or he may have intended cut
ting down Thomas. as per schedule.
But he never got to the ball.
Foster picked up the ball and then.

huge figure of the Cofeyville Cyclone.

ball and both runners were safe.
